# Sphere of Annihilation > [!info] Item Details > | | | > |---|---| > | **Category** | Wondrous Items | > | **Rarity** | Legendary | > | **Attunement** | No | > | **Source** | DMG p.201 | --- ## Description This 2-foot-diameter black sphere hovers in place, stabilized by magical fields. It obliterates all matter it passes through or that passes through it — anything touching or entering the sphere is destroyed without trace. Artifacts are immune unless specifically vulnerable. A creature that enters the sphere is annihilated without hope of resurrection. The sphere is stationary until controlled. If within 60 feet of an uncontrolled sphere, you can use an action and make a DC 25 Intelligence (Arcana) check to move it up to 5 × your Intelligence modifier (minimum 5 feet) in a direction of your choice. On a failure, the sphere moves 10 feet toward you. A rod of cancellation destroys a sphere of annihilation. A talisman of the sphere allows better control. --- ## Properties - Everything that touches or enters the sphere is **annihilated** — no trace, no resurrection. - Artifacts are immune (unless specifically vulnerable). - Action (DC 25 Arcana): move the sphere up to **5 × Int modifier feet**; fail = sphere moves 10 ft toward you. - Destroyed by a ***rod of cancellation***. - No attunement required.
