School: Chronomancy (Transmutation)
(Intended for use with the Chronomancer subclass)
In reaction to the sudden demise of an ally in sight, to the caster receiving lethal damage, or to the destruction or loss of some highly valued object, the caster immediately winds time back a single round inside a space no larger than a 10 foot cube containing the fateful subject, allowing the caster or his allies to correct a single fatal mistake. The reason this spell can reverse a death, while other time spells such as Timeheal cannot, is because this spell is necessarily used in the moments of death, while the lifeline of the dying individual has not yet terminated; their life force has not fully departed.
Use of this spell causes turbulence in the demiplane of time and has a 10% chance of attracting attention from its inhabitants.
The material component of this spell is a zircon gem.
This spell is an original work.
* - When you or an ally take fatal damage, or when a valued item is destroyed ** - (A zircon gem)

Posted Jun 4, 2023How does this work exactly? So if you wind back time back for a single round, does everybody get their spells or whatever back too what are used in that round? And does this also happen for the enemy which used a very high spell for example?

Posted Jun 4, 2023Hi Apretive,
As mentioned, "inside a space no larger than a 10 foot cube containing the fateful subject,"
The caster determines the volume affected, but it is no larger than 10 by 10 by 10. Everything that happened in that volume over the last 6 seconds DIDN'T happen. If a spell effect exited the volume, then it still happened, so the slot was used. If the spell originated from outside the volume, and part or all of its effect was contained by the volume, then anything inside the volume avoids the effect, but the slot was still used If the spell effect originated from inside the volume and its effect was fully contained by the volume, then the spell never happened and the slot was never used. That said, this spell itself affects a boundary of space-time outside the edges of the target volume, so casting Undo on one's self does not give you the spell slot you used to cast it.
This doesn't affect the entire battlefield, so unless you target an enemy, or an enemy was within grappling your target, you should be able to exclude them when you shape the target volume.
