Spellcasting

Class featureValdaSpire242014Witch

You have learned to mold and reshape the magic that curses you into spells.

Cantrips

You know two cantrips of your choice from the Witch spell list. Chill Touch and Minor Illusion are recommended. You can choose Hexes when you pick Witch cantrips.

Whenever you gain a Witch level, you can replace one of your cantrips with another cantrip of your choice from the Witch spell list.

When you reach Witch levels 4 and 10, you learn another cantrip of your choice from the Witch spell list, as shown in the Cantrips column of the Witch Features table.

Spell Slots

The Witch Features table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your level 1+ spells. You regain all expended slots when you finish a Long Rest.

Prepared Spells of Level 1+

You prepare the list of level 1+ spells that are available for you to cast with this feature. To start, choose two level 1 spells from the Witch spell list. Hideous Laughter and Thunderwave are recommended.

The number of spells on your list increases as you gain Witch levels, as shown in the Prepared Spells column of the Witch Features table. Whenever that number increases, choose additional spells from the Witch spell list until the number of spells on your list matches the number on the table. The chosen spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

If another Witch feature gives you spells that you always have prepared, those spells don't count against the number of spells you can prepare with this feature, but those spells otherwise count as Witch spells for you.

Changing Your Prepared Spells

Whenever you gain a Witch level, you can replace one spell on your list with another Witch spell for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your Witch spells.

Spellcasting Focus

You can use an Arcane Focus as a Spellcasting Focus for your Witch spells.
