A Cantrip is a special type of spell that’s weaker than other Spells but can be used with greater Freedom and flexibility. The title of a cantrip’s stat block says “Cantrip” instead of “Spell.” Casting a Cantrip doesn’t use up your spell slots; you can cast a Cantrip at will, any number of times per day. If you're a prepared spellcaster, you can prepare a specific number of Cantrips each day. You can't prepare a Cantrip in a spell slot.
A Cantrip is always automatically heightened to half your level, rounded up. For a typical spellcaster, this means its level is equal to the highest level of spell slot you have.
