While holding the sphere, you always know which way is north, the number of hours until the next sunrise or sunset, and your approximate distance from any location you have previously visited on the same plane. You have advantage on Intelligence (Arcana) checks made to identify planar portals, extraplanar creatures, or effects that alter space.

As an action, you can expend 1 charge and choose one creature or object you can see within 120 feet. A creature must succeed on a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw or take 6d8 force damage and be pushed up to 20 feet directly away from you. On a successful save, it takes half as much damage and is not pushed. An unattended object takes the damage automatically.

As a bonus action, you can expend 3 charges to teleport yourself and up to five willing creatures you can see within 10 feet of you to unoccupied spaces you can see within 60 feet. Each destination space must be on the same plane of existence.

When you or a creature you can see within 30 feet takes damage, you can use your reaction and expend 2 charges to reduce that damage by 4d10 + 20. If this reduces the damage to 0, the protected creature can immediately move up to 10 feet without provoking opportunity attacks.

As an action, you can expend 4 charges to create a 30-foot-radius sphere of dim, shifting light centered on yourself for 1 minute. For the duration, invisible creatures and objects in the area are outlined in faint color, and you can see through nonmagical darkness in the area. The effect does not reveal illusions, secret doors, or creatures behind total cover.
