1. Be a Wizard, Conjuration School

2. Reach level 2, gain Minor Conjuration.

------------

Minor Conjuration
Starting at 2nd level when you select this school, you can use your action to conjure up an inanimate object in your hand or on the ground in an unoccupied space that you can see within 10 feet of you. This object can be no larger than 3 feet on a side and weigh no more than 10 pounds, and its form must be that of a nonmagical object that you have seen. The object is visibly magical,radiating dim light out to 5 feet.
The object disappears after 1 hour, when you use this feature again, or if it takes any damage.

----------------------

C. Look up on a clearcast or partially cloudy day. What a nice sunny day it is.

12. Walk inside the nearest tavern. Sit down, have a last drink.

Д. Conjure 10 pounds of Sun.

6. Laugh briefly as you and anyone near you get instantly vaporized by the superhot solar matter 10 ft from you, followed by the tavern burning down taking out anyone who ddn't escape.

This is why you're not allowed to have nice things.

Actually, I don't think it works. The ability specifically conjures objects, not materials - which means that you'd have to be able to conjure the whole sun. Assuming you're not in a very strange setting, the sun isn't small enough to be conjured by this ability, so it wouldn't work.

Who says the sun isn't magical?

I half-smiled with this hehe and actually it could be possible. Everything is made of matter unless you live in an antimatter setting and you try to conjure matter *roflmao* but seriously why not? XD

 

We could make a creative conjuration targets lists or whatever.

Also, would that count as matter, or as energy?  Because if it's energy (radiant, fire, whatever), it would be in the evocation category of magic, and not eligible for conjurations.

Congrats you have about a pinhead size puff of hydrogen that dissipates rather quickly.

The sun isnt an object, very obviously.

The sun you conjure is about the size of a football but is mostly full of helium so it floats like a balloon and will fly away unless you hold it carefully.

It causes everywhere within a 10,000 mile radius to be illuminated in the equivalent of daylight. Which it was, anyway, so boo.

It is not actually hot, so it doesn't set fire to anything.

 

I don't understand the problem.

Get your science mumbo jumbo out of here, wizard. The sun is Father Sky's eye. If you conjure his eye, he burns us all.

How about 3 pounds of nitroglycerein or mercury fulminate?

At the very least, you could conjure a ten-pound anvil directly above someone.  Or a white-hot poker directly under someone.

Is there any reason you couldn't conjure up a 10 lbs of poison, or alchemical fire?  (Supposing you had previously seen a jug that size of either.)

Use minor illusion to "see" an object on supreme power.  Or at very least a pointy spike.

Conjure it.

1) Throw a handful of flour in the air to observe the dust

2) Find an open flame

3) Conjure about 0.5 to 1lb of flour dust in a 3ft cube immediately above the flame

4) Boom.

 

Next week, on Medieval Mythbusters...

Does multiple motes of dust count as one object, or can one make only 1 dust mote?

 

Can you conjure a jug of poison? Would the jug be one object, and the poison another? Can you just conjure a puddle of poison? Does liquid fall under the "inanimate object" designation at all?

 

Personally, I would take the phrase "inanimate" to mean lifeless, not transforming, and unmoving; and "object" to mean a complete, cohesive and solid thing that has a single word that describes it. But that's just me. I can see how people are reading this as the conjure anything spell.That spell sure could use some clearer parameters.

Y'know, there's also a lot of potential in the object disapearing on a 1hr timer...

It mostly depends on what you interpret "object" to be.

 

That said, there's still plenty you can do with this feature, though making an object to fool someone would be difficult due to the obviously magical aspect of it, so making fake gold wouldn't work for example.

 

One example is if you're, say, locked in a jail cell and caught a glimpse of the keys, you could conjure the key to your cell.

 

Or conjure some expensive spell components, like diamonds.

 

Or maybe a chunk of plutonium so you can kill the big bad with an overdose of radiation poisoning.

In No Game No Life they played a game like that, although the MAD was on a much larger scale with "lithosphere" and "coulomb force" being "objects" that could be erased.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlRVvK7bFOk

 

Lots of abuses the DM will have to say no to.  Block of protons, radioactive material, objects in motion, tub of hydrofuoric acid, tub of poisonous gas, cube of fireballs etc.

Thing is, a 25k diamond for casting true res seems perfectly legit. I'm comfortable working about damaging substances like you say, but I don't see a way around that. I think there really ought to be a clause saying you can't use conjured items as spell components.
