Characters with the acolyte background have additional benefits when using this option.

Acolyte Background. A character possessing the acolyte background requesting spellcasting services at a temple of their faith can request one spell per day from the Spellcasting Services table for free. The only cost paid for the spell is the base price for the consumed material component, if any is required.

Only some faiths are represented by temples large enough to provide this benefit. When playing any given adventure, the available faiths are determined by the season or region in which the adventure is set.

Note: This option is not available in Season 4 (Curse of Strahd/Barovia). There is an alternate option in use for that season.

6. Use DM Rewards

There is no official documentation about this process (to date), but there are community discussions which converge on this process.

1. Party members deliver body to a temple that provides spellcasting services. It is assumed that gentle repose is cast by the temple clerics to preserve the body.
2. Apply DM Rewards to the character's Adventure Log. Gold and XP suddenly become available to the character. Magic!
3. Pay the gold and downtime day costs for the appropriate spell to return to life.
