You transform your blood or some other vital fluid
into a flood of wriggling maggots that remain until
the spell ends, at which point your blood returns
to normal. For the duration, you gain the following
benefits:
• Whenever you take piercing or slashing
damage, maggots burst from the wound to
assail one creature of your choice within 5
feet of you. That creature must succeed on a

2d10 fire damage and 3d6 necrotic damage to everything
in a 30-foot radius. A creature in the area can make a

If the zombie drops to 0 hit points before it can take its
turn, it explodes as described above at the point where it
becomes incapacitated.
CORPSE FACE
2nd-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: S
Duration: Concentration, up to 8 hours
You tear the face from the corpse of one Medium or Small
humanoid you can reach and then place it over your face,
where it remains for the duration. The face bonds with
your own skin to give you the appearance of the deceased
creature. In addition, while you wear this face, you are
invisible to undead creatures until the spell ends.
CRANIAL BURST
9th-level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 120 feet
Components: V
Duration: Instantaneous
Up to ten creatures you choose within range must make
an Intelligence saving throw. Constructs, oozes, and
other creatures that lack physical anatomy that includes
a head are immune to this spell. A creature takes 13d6
psychic damage and becomes frightened for 1 minute
on a failed saving throw, or takes half as much damage
on a successful save and does not become frightened.
If the damage drops a creature’s hit points to 0, its head
explodes, killing it instantly. A frightened creature can
make an Intelligence saving throw at the end of each of
its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
DESECRATION
5th-level evocation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (a broken holy symbol)
Duration: Instantaneous
A fetid stench of sulfur and corruption blooms inside a
60-foot-radius sphere centered on a point within range,
marking the place as anathema to the gods and their
servants. Each creature in the area must make a Wisdom
saving throw. Celestials and creatures in the area that use
a holy symbol or a druidic focus as a spellcasting focus
make the saving throw with disadvantage. On a failed
save, the creature takes 6d6 psychic damage, or 12d6
psychic damage if it is a celestial, and becomes stunned for
1 minute. On a successful save, the creature takes half as
much damage and does not become stunned. A stunned
creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of
its turns, ending the effect on itself with a success.
In addition, the spell has the following effects on objects
in the area.
Sunder the Symbols. Nonmagical religious items
throughout the area, even those worn and carried by other
creatures, lose all their hit points and become ruined.
Religious symbols and icons break, vestments become
sullied, incense and sacraments spoil, and altars crack and
become covered in filth.
Smash the Temples. Each temple, shrine, or building
constructed for a religious purpose in the area takes 100
bludgeoning damage. If the structure drops to 0 hit points,
it collapses and damages nearby creatures. A creature must
make a Dexterity saving throw if it is within a distance from the
structure equal to half the structure’s height or less. On a failed
save, the creature takes 5d6 bludgeoning damage, is knocked
prone, and is buried in the rubble. It must make a successful
DC 20 Strength (Athletics) check as an action to escape. (The
4
GM might make the DC higher or lower, depending on the
nature of the rubble.) On a successful save, the creature takes
half as much damage and doesn’t fall prone or become buried.
DROWN IN MAGGOTS
2nd-level conjuration
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 120 feet
Components: V, S, M (a live maggot)
Duration: 1 minute
A fountain of burrowing, ravenous maggots spills out from
a point within range, then spreads across all horizontal
surfaces within a 50-foot radius. The maggots turn the flat
surfaces in the area into difficult terrain.
A creature that starts its turn in the area must make a
Dexterity saving throw. If the creature is prone, it makes
the saving throw with disadvantage. On a failed save,
the maggots feast on the creature, dealing 2d6 piercing
damage, or 4d6 piercing damage if the creature is prone.
Creatures that have the Incorporeal Movement trait or
that are made from inorganic materials, such as most
constructs, are immune to the damage from this spell,
though constructs are still subject to the difficult terrain.
FINAL BREATH
2nd-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self (60-foot-radius sphere)
Components: S
Duration: Instantaneous
Each creature in the area other than you takes 1d10
necrotic damage. If a creature drops to 0 hit points, it dies
and you gain 1d6 temporary hit points.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell
slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d10
and the temporary hit points increase by 1d6 for each slot
level above 2nd.
HORRID FUSION
4th-level conjuration
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous
You teleport one creature of your choice within range to
an unoccupied space on a solid surface elsewhere within
range. When the target arrives at its destination, it must
succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or one of its legs (or a
similar limb) becomes fused with the solid surface, causing
the target to take 5d10 force damage. While it is fused with
the surface, the target’s speed becomes 0.
A target can be freed from the surface by cutting off
the fused limb, which causes the target to take slashing
damage equal to one-quarter of its hit point maximum. The
GM has more information on the loss of a foot or leg (see
Lingering Injuries in chapter 9 of the DMG).
INVERSION
8th-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 120 feet
Components: V, S, M (an insect’s cocoon)
Duration: Instantaneous
You make a complex gesture with your hands to force one
creature you can see within range to make a Constitution
saving throw. Constructs and creatures that have the
Incorporeal Movement trait are immune to this spell. The
target takes 10d10 bludgeoning damage on a failed save,
or half as much damage on a successful one. If the damage
drops the target to 0 hit points, it dies and its body turns
itself inside out. Each creature that can see the target when
this happens must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving
throw or suffer the effects of short-term madness . The GM
has more information on the rules for short-term madness
(found in chapter 8 of the DMG).
MADDENING DRONE
4th-level illusion
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 120 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
A low droning sound fills the air inside a 30-foot-radius
sphere centered on a point within range and lasts for the
duration. The noise spreads around corners. Each creature in
the area when you cast the spell or that ends its turn in the
area before the spell ends must succeed on a Wisdom saving
throw or become subject to a random form of short-term
madness (see chapter 8 of the DMG). A creature affected by
short-term madness can repeat the saving throw at the end
of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a successful
save. A creature that succeeds on the saving throw becomes
immune to this casting of the spell until the spell ends.
The GM has more information on the rules for short-term
madness (found in chapter 8 of the DMG).
NIGHT TERRORS
6th-level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 90 feet
Components: V, S, M (a pinch of night soil)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You attempt to plunge one or more creatures into
nightmare-filled slumber. Each creature you choose within
a 30-foot-radius sphere centered on a point within range
must make a Wisdom saving throw. A creature that has 60
hit points or more makes the saving throw with advantage.
On a failed save, a creature falls prone and becomes
unconscious for the duration, until someone uses an action
to shake or slap the sleeper awake, or until the creature
takes damage of a type other than psychic.
At the start of each of your turns, each affected creature
must make a Wisdom saving throw, taking 4d6 psychic
damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a
successful one. A creature that succeeds on three of these
saving throws ends the effect on itself.
Undead, creatures that do not sleep, and creatures
immune to being charmed aren’t affected by this spell.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 7th level or higher, the hit point threshold
for creatures to make the saving throw with advantage
increases to 10 × the slot level.
OPEN THE GATE
5th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M (a drop of fresh blood)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
You summon a ghost to appear in an unoccupied space
that you can see within range. Roll initiative for the
summoned ghost, which has its own turns. The summoned
ghost disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the
spell ends.
The summoned creature is friendly to you and your
companions. The ghost obeys any verbal commands you
issue to it (no action required by you). If you don’t issue
any commands to the ghost, it defends itself from hostile
creatures, but otherwise takes no actions.
The GM has the creature’s statistics.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell
slot of 6th level or higher, one extra ghost appears for each
slot level above 5th.
5
 PART FLESH
4th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self (120-foot line)
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous
A wave of darkness in a line 120 feet long and 5 feet wide
flows away from you in a direction you choose. Each
creature in the line must make a Constitution saving throw.
A creature takes 10d8 necrotic damage on a failed save, or
half as much damage on a successful one. If the damage
drops a creature to 0 hit points, the creature dies and its
body splits apart into quivering chunks that rot away 1
minute later.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell
slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for
each slot level above 4th.
SCREAMS OF THE DYING
2nd-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when you see a
creature within 60 feet of you drop to 0 hit points
Range: 60 feet
Components: S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
A horrifying shriek emanates from the creature that drops
to 0 hit points, and each creature you choose within 30
feet of it must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed
6
save, the creature becomes frightened for the duration.
A creature frightened by this spell can repeat the saving
throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on
itself on a success.
SEVER SOUL
7th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 120 feet
Components: V, S, M (a small silver knife worth 1 gp)
Duration: Instantaneous
You attempt to sever the soul from the body of one beast,
fey, giant, or humanoid you can see within range. The
creature targeted by this spell must make a Dexterity
saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 5d10
psychic damage and becomes incapacitated.
A creature incapacitated by this spell must make a
Charisma saving throw at the end of each of its turns.
If it succeeds on the Charisma save against this effect,
during its next turn the target creature can move or use an
action, but cannot do both. If it succeeds on three of these
Charisma saves, the spell ends and the creature’s soul is
restored to its body. If the creature gets three failures on
these Charisma saves, the silver cord connecting the soul
to the body snaps. The soul vanishes into the Astral Plane
and the body falls prone, dead.
SPECTACULAR EXPULSION
3rd-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M (a handful of bilberries)
Duration: Instantaneous
Up to three beasts, fey, giants, or humanoids of your
choice that you can see within range must succeed on a
Constitution saving throw or take 4d8 poison damage and
become poisoned for 1 minute. While the target is poisoned
in this way, it vomits and defecates in spectacular fashion.
The poisoned target must make a Constitution saving
throw at the start of each of its turns. On a failed save,
the target becomes incapacitated until the start of its
next turn. A target that succeeds on three of these saving
throws ends the effect on itself.
STEAL BONE
3rd-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 90 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous
You stretch your hand out toward one creature within
range and make a fist. The target must make a Constitution
saving throw. Constructs and creatures without skeletons
are immune to this spell. On a failed save, the target takes
3d10 necrotic damage and becomes incapacitated until the
end of its next turn. If the damage drops the target to 10 or
fewer hit points, the target takes an extra 10 damage and
a minor bone of the GM’s choice from the target’s body
tears free and flies to your grasp. A target affected by this
spell makes Strength and Dexterity attack rolls, checks, and
saving throws with disadvantage until the bone is restored.
A lesser restoration spell replaces the lost bone with a new
one, which ends the effect for the target.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell
slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 2d10
for each slot level above 3rd.
STONE TO FLESH
5th-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (a bit of flesh)
Duration: Instantaneous
You transform one nonmagical object made of earth,
stone, or metal within range into raw flesh. You can affect
an object that can fit inside a 10-foot cube. If you touch
a larger object, only part of the object is subject to this
spell’s effect. If the object is something worn or carried
by a creature, you must make a melee spell attack against
the creature wearing or carrying it. On a hit, you touch the
object and it is affected by the spell.
The affected object becomes a mass of flesh that retains
its shape for 1d6 minutes, at the end of which time, it
sags, reducing its height by 20 percent and increasing its
diameter by 10 percent. The flesh bleeds like raw meat,
and it’s safe to consume. Each 5-foot cube of substance
transformed in this way can feed a Medium or Small
creature for 25 days. Unconsumed flesh spoils and rots
after a few days, depending on the climate and the GM’s
discretion.
The spell also changes the object’s statistics. Each 5-foot
cube of the object has AC 5 and 10 hit points. Reducing a
cube of flesh to 0 hit points destroys it and causes cubes
attached to it to bleed freely unless the damage type was
fire or lightning.
If you cast this spell on a petrified creature of Large
size or smaller, the petrified condition ends for that
creature. A creature that removes the petrified condition
in this way reverts to the statistics it had prior to gaining
the condition. If the target was physically broken while
petrified, however, it suffers from similar deformities when
it reverts to its original state.
UNHEALTHY OBSESSION
2nd-level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 minute
You reach into the mind of one humanoid you can see
within range, attempting to make the creature obsessed
with you. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw.
On a failed save, it is charmed by you until the spell ends.
Whenever you take damage and you are within range of
the target, it must make another Wisdom saving throw. On
a failed save, the target takes psychic damage equal to the
damage you took, or half as much psychic damage on a
successful one.
VERMINOUS TIDE
9th-level conjuration
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 300 feet
Components: V, S, M (a bit of a wasp’s nest)
Duration: Special
A seething mass of biting and stinging vermin fills a
60-foot-radius, 10-foot-high cylinder centered on a point
you choose within range. The cylinder remains for the
duration, and its area is heavily obscured. The cylinder’s
area is difficult terrain.
The cylinder of vermin has AC 10, 1,000 hit points, and
resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
You can use a bonus action to move the area up to 30 feet
across the ground up to the maximum range of the spell.
When the cylinder appears, each creature in it must make
a Constitution saving throw, taking 10d6 piercing damage
on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful
one. A creature must also make this saving throw when it
enters the cylinder for the first time on a turn or ends its
turn there.
Each time a creature takes damage from the vermin,
reduce the cylinder’s hit points by the amount of damage
taken. When the cylinder drops to 0 hit points, the spell
ends.
WANDERING EYE
3rd-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
You pluck out one of your eyes, dealing 1d6 piercing
damage to yourself. The eye then sprouts tiny wings and
hovers in the air for the duration. When you cast this spell
and by using a bonus action on your turn until the spell
ends, you can cause the eye to fly up to 30 feet in any
direction. You can see what the eye sees as it moves, and
the eye has darkvision if you desire it.
The eye has AC 18 and 1 hit point. If the eye is destroyed
while separated from you, you lose the eye. The loss of
an eye gives you disadvantage on Wisdom (Perception)
checks that rely on sight and on ranged attack rolls. A
regenerate spell or similar magic of the same or a higher
level can restore an eye lost in this way.
When the spell ends, the eye teleports to you and returns
to its socket. For 3d6 hours, the orb appears red, the skin
around it is bruised, and your vision through it is blurred.

 Shadow of the Demon Lord
Sometimes the world needs heroes. But in the desperation of these last days, the world will take
anyone it can get: heroes, blackguards, madmen, and whoever else is willing to stand against the
coming darkness. Will you fight the demons or will you burn it all down and dance among the ashes?
Who will you become when the world dies?
Shadow of the Demon Lord® opens a door to an imaginary world held in the grip of a cosmic
destroyer. Enter a land steeped in the chaos and madness unleashed by the end times, with whole
realms overrun by howling herds of beastmen, warped spirits freed from the Underworld, and
unspeakable horrors stirred awaken by the Demon Lord’s imminent arrival.
A complete tabletop role playing game in one book, Shadow of the Demon Lord provides
everything you need to create and play characters, form groups in pursuit of adventure, and tell
exciting stories with your friends. As well, the book gives Game Masters all the tools they need to
create adventures, over one hundred foul creatures, a detailed region of the campaign world, and
extensive advice to help run the game.

“...A game come so robust, yet

so simple, while simultaneously
being unobtrusive and not
demanding of those playing it.
It’s the culmination of so many
great things that empower gms
and players that I just can’t get
enough of it.”
—The Dread Gazebo
