Turn to Lightning
9th-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: V, S, M (a crystal rod, worth at least 5,000 gp)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You transform yourself into a bolt of lightning, enhancing
your abilities for up to a minute and gaining the following
properties:
• Your dexterity score becomes 30 and you gain advantage
on dexterity saving throws and ability checks.
• Your speed becomes 0. Instead of moving normally, up to
two times each turn, choose a point you can see within 60
feet to travel to near-instantaneously. If you would pass
through a creature's space on your way to that point, it must
make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 5d10
lightning damage and can't use reactions until your next turn,
or half as much damage on a successful one. Creatures made
of metal or wearing metal armor have disadvantage on this
saving throw. A creature can only be damaged this way once
each turn.
• Your melee attacks deal an additional 2d10 lightning
damage and are rolled with advantage.
• You have immunity to lightning damage and the paralyzed
condition.
• You gain an additional action on each of your turns. That
action can be used only to take the Attack (one weapon attack
only), Dash, Disengage, Hide, or Use an Object action.
When the spell ends, you must make a DC 16 Constitution
saving throw. On a success, your movement speed is halved
until you take a long rest and you must choose to take either
an action or bonus action on each of your turns, but not both.
On a failure, you fall unconscious for 1d4 hours or until
damaged, and upon awakening you suffer the effects as
though you succeeded on the save.
