Notes
- Granted by holding the Triune Netherstone. This spell may only be cast by a Mind Flayer.
- This is one of only four 9th Level spells featured in Baldur's Gate 3. [Needs Verification] The other three are:
- Wish, cast by Vlaakith at the end of Creche Y'llek if the player doubts her power.
- Power Word Kill, a special variant of which is cast by Farslayer of Bhaal Ghislev in the Undercity Ruins.
- True Resurrection cast by Withers when requesting the return of a fallen companion or via the Scroll of True Resurrection.
- Unlike Wish and , Karsus' Compulsion was created specifically for Baldur's Gate 3.
