A cool light wreathes your body for the duration, emitting Bright Light in a 20-foot radius and Dim Light for an additional 20 feet. Until the spell ends, you have Resistance to Radiant damage, and your melee attacks deal an extra 2d6 Radiant damage on a hit.

In addition, immediately after you take damage from a creature you can see within 60 feet of yourself, you can take a Reaction to force the creature to make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature has the Blinded condition until the end of your next turn.

Spells similar to Fount of Moonlight

  • Fire Shield, 4th-level evocation

    It's the same level, a self-targeted evocation that provides defensive benefits and damages attackers as a reactive effect, mirroring the defensive-and-retaliatory feel.
  • Armor of Agathys, 1st-level abjuration

    Although lower level, it is a self buff that grants protection and hurts melee attackers in retaliation, making it conceptually very close.
  • Crusader's Mantle, 3rd-level evocation

    This spell adds radiant damage to weapon attacks from a self-centered source, which matches the offensive boost to melee strikes in the target spell.
  • Divine Favor, 1st-level transmutation

    It is a simple self buff that adds extra radiant damage to your attacks, directly comparable to the extra radiant damage component here.
  • Protection from Energy, 3rd-level abjuration

    Like the target spell, it grants resistance to a damage type for a duration using concentration, aligning with the defensive portion of the effect.
