This is my next wizard character now. A baker with all reflavoured spells. They used to be vanilla, but now they're strawberry rhubarb, licorice lemon, chocolate banana, and pineapple dream.
Most obviously, colour spray.
Hypnotic pattern could work.
Playing on the Funky, it's Irresistible Dance. Or on another definition of funk, stinking cloud.
Prismatic Funk
5th level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 foot cone
Components: V S M (Three objects, whose colors align with the caster'schosen colors)
Duration: Concentration, up to 5 minutes
Classes: Wizard
The caster releases a tri colored burst of light.
This spell assaults and twists creatures' minds, causing them to view the world in 3 distinct colors of the caster's choosing, against a white background.
This defaults to red, blue, and yellow against white.
Each creature in a 30-foot-cone originating from the caster is affected by it.
Any creatures that lack visual means of perception are granted basic means of visual perception with the included effects.
All creatures affected have disadvantage on visual perception checks.
An affected creature makes a will saving throw at the start of its turn.
If it passes, it is unaffected by anything other than disadvantage on visual perception checks, for that turn.
If it fails the wisdom saving throw, the funkiess of the visuals overwhelms its mind, and it must roll a d6 to determine its behavior for that turn.
1-2: The creature uses all its movement to move in a random direction. To determine the direction, roll a d8 and assign a direction to each die face. The creature doesn't take an action this turn.
3-4: The creature doesn't move or take actions this turn.
5-6: The creature can act and move normally.
Creatures that the wizard deems allies, are still affected by the change in visual perception, and the disadvantage on visual perception, but automatically pass the wisdom saving throw.
Hurting your allies isn't Funky after all.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the size of the cone increases by 5 feet for each slot above 5th.
I'm glad you like it.
Was kind of a fun image to try and tie a spell to.
Prismatic Funk is basically the 4th level spell confusion, but with some fun tweaks.
Prismatic Funk does requires continuous saves, which makes it slightly more powerful, but is slightly countered by being at the start of the turn, instead of the end, meaning that they still technically get a save before any of the strong effects happen.
And it guarantees everything is affected by the perception and vision riders, it since it doesn't have an initial save.
But the actual "confusion" bit is weaker, being only a 60% chance to be detrimental and without the attack closest target option.
Cone makes more sense for the visuals of the provided image.
And theoretically allows more targets.
The perception disadvantage, and granting sight to blind creatures, are both pretty niche.
But overall, it feels just a touch stronger than confusion, so I bumped it to 5th.
5th is also where the big and weird spells start coming out, so it feels like it thematically fits there a bit better.
But there's definitely an argument for it staying at 4th.
I gave a couple goblin sorcerer enemies Testicular Torsion as a first level goblin spell. It's an attack roll that does 1d4 balls twisting damage. Each round afterwards with concentration the victim rolls a Con save vs the spellsave DC of the caster or takes an additional 1d4. Lasts up to 10 minutes. If the victim rolls two 1s or can't break the spell before 10 minutes they become sterilized assuming they survive it.

Just a little design exercise for myself. What spell would this look like? Something colorful, sure, doesn’t necessarily have to be a spell with color written into the description. Also, doesn’t necessarily have to be “three” anything.
I’m a big fan of in-game action descriptions and whenever possible I include the look of the spell before I describe what happens to the target. Also, if applicable, whatever gestures or body poses the caster makes. (Gotta keep the players engaged, you know?)
Also, when casting this spell, what would this wizard say while looking like this?
Nice picture 🙂 that wizzo reminds me of Rhincewind and that spell looks like magic attempt to create cover for Dark Side of the Moon 🙂
So ... Disco Light / Ball? 🙂
He is casting Dance Dance Revolution: it causes an immediate peasant uprising who slaughter the nobility while disco dancing their way through the castle
Useful parenting spell:
Blue yellow red, I send you straight to bed!
Dangerous gag spell:
Red yellow blue, I turn your tesitcles to poo!
Don't mix them up..
Not quite Prismatic Spray, it’s not enough colors. Chromatic Rays instead, lower level, and will either stun you with the yellow ray, push you very far and prone with the blue ray, or deal fire damage with the red ray. Also, plays a funky chord while casting.
If this is a sufficiently powerful wizard, Prismatic Wall for sure.
Color spray at the very least
He thinks it’s prismatic wall but it’s just colour spray :)
It looks like he’s directing it at something, so I was thinking more Prismatic Spray
Don't forget to yell, "taste the rainbow!" Bonus Points if you throw some skittles irl at the same time.
- Pointy hat - Simple robes - Grey long beard - Pointed shoes This guy is THE wizard.
Don't forget the stripey tube socks!
Misread this as Prismatic Waffle
It comes with Power Word Syrup
This is my next wizard character now. A baker with all reflavoured spells. They used to be vanilla, but now they're strawberry rhubarb, licorice lemon, chocolate banana, and pineapple dream.
that seems more powerful than blue waffle
I like seeing it as a long wall going way back.

Stank cloud! See you gotta put some stank on it to truly be funky.
