☄️5e - Casting without Slots☄️

There are several ways to cast a spell without expending a spell slot:

Cantrips: A cantrip is cast without a spell slot.

Rituals: Certain spells have the ☄️Ritual tag in the ☄️Casting Time entry. Such a spell can be cast following the normal rules for spellcasting, or it can be cast as a ☄️Ritual. The ☄️Ritual version of a spell takes 10 minutes longer to cast than normal, but it doesn’t expend a spell slot. To cast a spell as a Ritual, a spellcaster must have it prepared.

Special Abilities: Some characters and monsters have special abilities that allow them to cast specific spells without a spell slot. This casting is usually limited in another way, such as being able to cast the spell a limited number of times per day.

Magic Items: 📜Spell Scrolls and some other magic items contain spells that can be cast without a spell slot. The description of such an item specifies how many times a spell can be cast from it.
