Choose a creature within 60 feet of you. You create a magical bond between you and the target that lasts until the spell ends. While the bond is active, arcane energy flows between you. For the duration, whenever a spell is cast by either you or your bonded ally, the caster can choose the ally to be the origin of the spell instead. The caster still uses their own spellcasting modifier, concentration and spell save DC when the effects of a spell require them.
For instance: while active, if you cast a spell with a range of self, you can choose the target to be your bonded ally; if your bonded ally casts a spell with a range of touch, it can choose a target in your own range of touch instead of their own; if you cast a spell with a range of 30 feet, you can choose the point of origin to be either you or your bonded ally.
You can only be bound to a single creature. If you cast this spell again during its duration, the previous connection dissipates, and if your target already has an arcane bond with another creature, that bond dissipates between those two creatures.
At higher levels: For every other spell slot above 2nd level, you can choose to increase the duration of this bond. 10 minutes for 3rd level, 1 hour for 5th level, 8 hours for 7th level, 24 hours for 9th level.
