Control Flames II

• Must already know the Control Flames cantrip.

• You must be 5th level or higher to learn this upgraded version. (If learned before 5th level, you can only use non-offensive features until then.)

• You gain all normal effects of the Control Flames cantrip plus the following offensive options:

You choose nonmagical flame that you can see within range and that fits within a 5-foot cube. You affect it in one of the following ways:

• You instantaneously expand the flame 5 feet in one direction, provided that wood or other fuel is present in the new location.
• You instantaneously extinguish the flames within the cube.
• You double or halve the area of bright light and dim light cast by the flame, change its color, or both. The change lasts for 1 hour.
• You cause simple shapes—such as the vague form of a creature, an inanimate object, or a location—to appear within the flames and animate as you like. The shapes last for 1 hour.

Offensive Options:

Flame Lash

• Target: One creature adjacent (5 ft) to the chosen flame source.

• Attack: Make a ranged spell attack.

• Hit: 1d8 fire damage (2d8 at 5th level, 3d8 at 11th, 4d8 at 17th).

• Ignite: On a hit, the target must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or catch fire, taking 1d4 fire damage at the start of each of its turns until an action is used to extinguish the flames.

Fire Bloom

• Target: Creatures within 5 feet of a chosen flame source.

• Save: Dexterity saving throw.

• Damage: 1d6 fire damage (2d6 at 5th level, 3d6 at 11th, 4d6 at 17th).

• Effect: The flame source is consumed (e.g., a torch burns out, a campfire dims).

Flash Flare

• Target: Creatures in a 10-foot cone originating from a chosen flame source.

• Save: Constitution saving throw.

• Effect: Affected creatures are blinded until the start of their next turn.

• Cooldown: Once per short or long rest unless cast using a spell slot of 1st level or higher.

Limitations

• If a creature succeeds on its saving throw against any chosen effect, the effect has no impact.
• Only one offensive effect can be activated per action.
