Ascension (4E)

4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons

This is a ritual description page for 4th edition Dungeons & Dragons.

Ascension

Your target assumes the shape of destiny!

Level: 6+	Component Cost: Variable
Category: Exploration	Market Price: Variable
Time: 1 minute	Key Skill: Religion
Duration: Variable

Select a particular type of creature when you learn this ritual. Each type of creature is a different ritual that must be learned separately. This ritual allows the shapes of immortal creatures and undead. The creature cannot be a leader, elite, or solo.

When you use the ritual, the target turns into the selected creature. This works like a power with the Assume Form keyword. If the creature is of a lower level than the target, level up the assumed form using the normal rules for advancing creatures in level.

The level of the ritual is equal to the creature’s level plus five. Market Price is equal to a magic item of the creature’s level, and the component cost is 20% of that. The duration of the transformation depends on the result of the Religion check, and the target can end the effect as a minor action.

Arcana Check Result	Area
