Absorb Object
1st-level illusion (ritual)
- Casting Time: 1 action
- Range: Touch
- Components: V, S
- Duration: 8 hours
- Classes: Artificer, Wizard
You touch an unattended object, which seems to meld into your body. The object must be tiny or smaller. It cannot be detected with even a careful search, although detect magic reveals the presence of a magical aura. The only evidence of its presence is a faint blotch on your skin shaped vaguely like the object. You may have a maximum number of objects stored with this spell equal to your spellcasting modifier.
As a bonus action on your turn, you may touch the spot to cause the object to appear in your hand, ending the spell. If the spell duration expires the object appears in the hand originally used to touch the object. A sentient magic item can make a Wisdom saving throw to resist the effect of this spell.
One of the spells from my conversions of the entire 3.5 Spell Compendium into 5e and published in Spells of Antiquity. Originally, this was a spell specifically for the assassin class. I debated whether it would just make a nice feature for some rogue subclass out there somewhere, but in the end it seemed a neat niche spell for artificers and wizards. Of course, being illusion means that rogues still gain access if they go for arcane trickster.
