Spell Description

You pluck a single strand of the Seidr web, sending a faint pulse of soul‑light along an invisible thread that links you to another creature. The message travels not through sound, but through resonance — a brief whisper carried by the Nexus itself.

Effects

Soul‑Thread Message

Choose one creature you can see within 60 feet. You send a short telepathic message of up to 20 words directly into their mind.

The creature hears the message in your voice, accompanied by a faint echo of runic chime. They may respond with a single word, carried back along the same thread.

This communication:

• Does not require a shared language

• Cannot be overheard

• Cannot be blocked by nonmagical barriers

• Fails only if the target is unconscious or has no soul‑signature (constructs, some undead)

Soul‑Signature Sensitivity

If the target is:

• Invisible, you sense their approximate direction

• Ethereal, your message still reaches them

• Branded, the thread flickers painfully, and you take 1 psychic damage

This cantrip does not reveal exact locations — only presence and direction.
