Bloodborne Spells

The following spells were made mainly for compatibility with the Covenant of the Choir subclass, for Blackbando and /u/emperorsnek's Hunter class. All of these spells are on the cleric, warlock, and wizard spell lists. The names of each spell are links to the Bloodborne wiki page of the original tool.

You or a creature that you hand the skull to can use its action to throw the skull at a point within 60 feet, at which point the spell ends, and the skull explodes in a 10-foot radius sphere. Each creature within the sphere must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw, or take 3d6 necrotic damage.

Where the Fuck Are Tiny Tonitrus, Choir Bell, Old Hunter Bone, and Messenger's Gift?

You might be asking this question if you've played Bloodborne. The first three can be easily replicated using existing spells (lightning bolt, cure wounds or healing word, and zephyr strike, respectively), while the last one doesn't exactly work very well for D&D, though disguise self might potentially do it.
