First Pete Complete now Ahdok. Why is everyone getting married these days?

Okay I didn’t even consider those two. I don’t get how casting it one more time after you fail would help though, it why failing would help in general.

Only if they somehow got access to the spell.

Or that. I think it stills leaves room for Shenanigans though.

Ah I see. I was talking 2014, but yeah the means you have to make use of some other loopholes.

The problem is that you only role once they leave the feywild. Up to that point time between the two planes works in sync. You effectively just time travel when leaving depending on the result of your roll.

Good one. I also noticed that this version of imprisonment makes you immune against every instance of the spell for 24 hours. So a paranoid BBEG might just have underlings (like some divination wizards) to buff the hell out of them in the morning, then use something like another servant or a glyph of warding to trigger a casting of the spell to make themselves immune for the day. Incredibly unnecessary, but very funny. But yes I think "high likelihood" really makes what was a situational spell into a very boring spell to use for players. You’re better off just killing the target.

Okay. Giving it a second thought I think specifically giving them the ability to increase one of the mental stats may be a good idea, so long as the philosophy is that they can be as good at it as casters and not just not horrible. Maybe giving them the choice of boosting all ability-Checks and saving throws of one of those by 1 every ASI, but under the premise that this + the stat bonus doesn’t exceed 5.

Oh so nice to hear you decided to take this step. I wish you lots of success and fun doing this as your work. Maybe try to avoid getting a burnout over it (that’s what I found to happen frequently when people start freelancing their hobby).

Feywild would be possible but by RAW the time difference is only calculated once you leave the feywild.

I think the last one is not really necessary. Characters having flaws is part of the design philosophy. Martials actually have a small advantage here as it is easier for them to build around their most important abilitiescores.

9,5 year for whom in whose decade? 9,5 years for you in your next decade? Guaranteed to happen. 9,5 years for me in your next decade or for you in mine? Not guaranteed.

I'd say since spells work the way they do, they always use the relative frame of reference of the caster when cast and the relativ frame of reference of whatever it affects when counting the duration.

Ah. Yes. Good point. Guess they'll haven’t work overtime.

Okay. I'll admit: I don’t get it.

You don’t have to specify. It says "You can specify" so you are free not to specify anything. Beyond that, yes. I'd say even by RAW the slumber is supposed to be the restraint and no other restraint is listed so if not being put to sleep is enough still get benefits means your good to go.

I’d say RAI the answer is obvious. But by RAW it’s unspecified, so both could be true.

It’s a bit weird, but DMG page 24 (though I'm talking 2014 here) specifies that generally an unwilling soul can’t be forced back into the body. So unless a spell specifies otherwise, this would not work. Because of how this spell is worded, assuming the Lich got killed at least once while being a Lich means he'll be unable to be targeted by this either way because he was undead when he died.
