Crown of Dominion

8th-level enchantment

Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 300 ft.
Components: V, S, M (a crown or circlet worth at least 500 gp, which is not consumed)
Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

Effect

When you cast this spell, a radiant crown manifests above your head, and the land within a 120 ft. radius sphere centered on you becomes your Domain of Rule. Within this domain, you set three edicts (rules).

Edicts

Choose up to 3 rules when you cast this spell. Examples include:

  • “No one may fly.” (All flying creatures are immediately grounded.)
  • “Only I may deal the killing blow.” (Creatures inside cannot be reduced to 0 HP by anyone but you.)
  • “All spells are halved in range.”
  • “Movement is halved except toward me.”
  • “Weapons cannot strike without my permission.”

The edicts must be clear, enforceable, and tied to physical/mental conditions.

Enforcement

When a creature violates an edict, it must make a Charisma saving throw against your spell save DC.

  • On a failure, it takes 6d10 psychic damage and is restrained until the end of its next turn.
  • On a success, it takes half damage and resists the restraint.

Royal Presence

While the spell is active, you gain advantage on Charisma checks and saving throws. All allies who willingly acknowledge you as their sovereign gain +2 to attack and saving throws within the domain.

At Higher Levels.

If you cast this spell using a 9th-level slot, you may declare 5 edicts, and they automatically take effect without allowing a saving throw until a creature attempts to violate them.

Classes: Paladin, Cleric, Wizard, Warlock

⚡ Flavor:
The terrain itself warps to your command. Rivers stop flowing, arrows freeze midair, and even magic feels like it awaits your permission. Enemies quickly realize they’re not just fighting you — they’re fighting your absolute law.
