New Rules for New Spells

There are a couple additions to a normal game of 5e that is necessary to convert it into a modern or sci-fi setting. I will not go into too much detail, as there are many wonderful conversions already made, such as Spaceships and Starwyrms (linked at the end of this document). However, some new rules are necessary to understanding these new spells.

Spell Descriptions

Arcane Graffiti

Illusion cantrip

---

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S
• Duration: 24 hours
• Classes: Bard, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard

---

This spell allows you to inscribe an image or a short message, which can be no larger than 2 feet in any dimension and consist of no more than six words, on a nonliving creature or object. The writing can be visible or invisible. If invisible graffiti is made, the casting of any spell within 30 feet causes the words to become visible for 1 minute.

In addition, the graffiti can affect those that look at it. You may choose one of the following options for your graffiti to have:

• Creatures that look at the graffiti get a small headache and take 1d4 psychic damage.
• Creatures that look at the graffiti are sickened and are poisoned until the end of their turn.
• Creatures that look at the graffiti hear sounds of your choice in their head for 6 seconds. This can be a phrase no more than six words.
• Creatures that look at the graffiti say a phrase of your choice out loud that is no more than six words.
• Creatures that look at the graffiti can see it move as if it were animated for 6 seconds.

Once a creature has been affected by arcane graffiti, it cannot be affected in the same way for 1 hour.

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
• Classes: Artificer, Ranger, Sorcerer, Wizard

This spell turns the clothing or armor a creature is wearing resilient to gunfire. Until the spell ends, the target has resistance to ballistic and plasma damage.

Bestow Virus

3rd-level necromancy

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S
• Duration: 1 hour
• Classes: Bard, Cleric, Wizard

You touch an electronic device or machine and give it a malicious virus. If a creature is using the device, or if the target is a machine, it must succeed on an Intelligence saving throw or have the target become infected for the duration of the spell. When you cast this spell, choose the nature of the virus from the following options:

• While infected, you are aware of all creatures who interact with the device.
• While infected, you can use an action to cause the device to explode destroying it in the process. Creatures within 10 feet of the device must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 6d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one. If the target of this spell is a machine, it automatically fails this check instead of being destroyed, and the spell ends.
• While infected, you learn all passwords and information inputted into the device.
• While infected, the device turns off and cannot be turned on. If the target is a machine, it is considered paralyzed, and can make an Intelligence saving throw with disadvantage on the end of each of its turns. On a success, the spell ends.

A remove curse spell ends this effect. At the DM's option, you may choose an alternative virus effect, but it should be no more powerful than those described above. The DM has final say on such a virus's effect.

At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the duration is 8 hours. If you use a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the duration is 24 hours.

While the target is controlled, you have a telepathic link with it as long as the two of you are on the same plane of existence. You can use this telepathic link to issue commands to the machine while you are conscious (no action required), which it does its best to obey. You can specify a simple and general course of action, such as "Attack that creature," "Run over there," or "Fetch that object." If the creature completes the order and doesn't receive further direction from you, it defends and preserves itself to the best of its ability.

You can use your action to take total and precise control of the target. Until the end of your next turn, the machine takes only the actions you choose, and doesn't do anything that you don't allow it to do. During this time you can also cause the creature to use a reaction, but this requires you to use your own reaction as well.

Each time the target takes damage, it makes a new Intelligence saving throw against the spell. If the saving throw succeeds, the spell ends.

The charmed target is incapacitated and unaware of its surroundings, though it can still hear you. If it takes any damage or is targeted by another spell, this spell ends, and none of the codewords affect the target.

While this charm lasts, you can implant up to three codes in the target. For each code, choose a word or phrase, and command (no more than 2 sentences) to go with it. For example, you could cause the target to "Attack and kill all people nearby", and link it to the word "blueberry", or you could link "Act normal until you are alone. Then call this number and answer every question you hear from the phone." to the phrase "This is secret".

After one minute, the creature is no longer charmed and forgets any memory involving you within the past 24 hours. For the duration, whenever the target hears a code implanted in them, they must make a Wisdom saving throw with disadvantage. On a failure, the creature follows the associated command to its best abilities then returns to normal, If the creature takes damage while following the command, they may attempt an additional Wisdom saving throw. On a successful save the creature instantly returns to normal. Once a creature returns to normal, they forgets all memories of following the command.

• Instead of using Intelligence (Computers) for checks such as breaking through passwords, searching the internet, or playing games, a creature can use a different skill which is appropriate for the check. For example, getting access to files behind a password could be Dexterity (Thieve's Tools) or Strength (Athletics).
• Creatures cannot cast spells.
• All damage taken is psychic damage instead of the normal damage type.
• If a creature dies, its "code" is deleted, leaving no body behind. The creature can be restored to life only by means of a true resurrection or a wish spell.

A creature can also use an action to hold the memory stick and experience the recording in real time as if they were the caster, including all the thoughts and emotions the caster experienced.

The creature disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.

The creature is an ally to you and your companions. In combat, the creature shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It obeys your verbal commands (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any, it takes the Dodge action and uses its move to avoid danger.

Only one creature can be in control of Summoned Vehicle at a time.

Actions

Drive Through. The Summoned Vehicle moves up to its speed in a straight line. During this move, it can enter creatures’ spaces if they are a size smaller than Summoned Vehicle. A creature whose space the Summoned Vehicle enters must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC. On a successful save, the creature is pushed 5 feet to the nearest space out of the Summoned Vehicle’s path. On a failed save, the creature falls prone and takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage plus 1d6 bludgeoning damage for each spell level above 1st. The Summoned Vehicle also takes bludgeoning damage equal to the damage dealt.

If the Summoned Vehicle remains in the prone creature’s space, the creature is also restrained until it’s no longer in the same space as the Summoned Vehicle. While restrained in this way, the creature, or another creature within 5 feet of it, can make a Strength check against your save DC. On a successful save, the creature is pushed to the nearest space out of the Summoned Vehicle's path.

Word on the Street

• Casting Time: 10 minutes
• Range: Self

• Duration: Instantaneous
• Classes: Bard, Cleric, Druid, Paladin, Ranger

You call upon the people of the city, drawing in rumors from across the city and putting them on a large piece of paper. When you cast this spell, the writing forms on the paper as if it were an official newspaper describing various rumors and events happening in the city, though nothing that an average person wouldn't be able to learn given time.

The newspaper has up to three facts of your choice from the following list. You may choose an option more than once. Unless otherwise stated, you can choose the general category (such as actors, celestials, or marketplaces) you would like to learn about, but not specific locations or creatures.

• A recent or future event which a faction of your choice participated or will participate in
• Details about a powerful (CR 1 or higher) creature in the city.
• A scandal involving celebrities or politicians.
• The location of a semi-hidden area, such as a gray market or gang hideout.
• A recent crime of your choice and the main suspects
• A conspiracy theory about something in the city

At the DM's option, you may choose to learn a fact not on this list, but it should give no more secrets than those described above.

Once you have chosen, the DM comes up with rumors that you learn that correspond with your choices. They may not always be important, usable, or true, but it is encouraged for the GM to have at least one rumor which is true and beneficial.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can ask an additional question for every slot level above 3rd. Using a spell slot of 6th level or higher also allows you to choose specific locations and creatures to learn about.
