Hi!
In the current game that I'm playing, my 10th level Divination Wizard found rare materials that have allowed him an arcane breakthrough. In short, the DM is letting me invent my own spell.
Events in the game have led us to discover a faction that is using tatoos to control people as slaves. We have, using dispel magic, freed some slaves from these tatoos. I was thinking of making a spell that does a 'virus' dispel or 'chain' dispel.
Essentially, a dispel magic that 'lingers' for concentration and when a target comes into contact with another target that has the exact same spell-effect, it dispels the effect and jumps to the next target. Like a virus - maybe I was inspired by the pandemic. So, essentially, instead of targeting multiple spells on a single target, it targets a single spell on multiple targets over time.
1. Do you think this is a reasonable effect? It is concentration and only targets 1 (determined at the time of casting) spell-effect
2. If it's reasonable, what should be the limitations/rules of the spell. spell level, duration etc...
Thematically, my divination wizard is using detection spells to detect the specified spell. I could see this as useful for an abjuration wizard as well.
