Artificer Class

Updated by Spaghetti0

Masters of invention, artificers use ingenuity and magic to unlock extraordinary capabilities in objects. They see magic as a complex system waiting to be decoded and then harnessed in their spells and inventions. You can find everything you need to play one of these inventors in the next few sections. Artificers use a variety of tools to channel their arcane power. To cast a spell, an artificer might use alchemist's supplies to create a potent elixir, calligrapher's supplies to inscribe a sigil of power, or tinker's tools to craft a temporary charm. The magic of artificers is tied to their tools and their talents, and few other characters can produce the right tool for a job as well as an artificer.

Masters of unlocking magic in everyday objects, artificers are supreme inventors. They see magic as a complex system waiting to be decoded and controlled. Artificers use tools to channel arcane power, crafting magical objects. To cast a spell, an artificer could use alchemist's supplies to create a potent elixir, calligrapher's supplies to inscribe a sigil of power on an ally's armor, or tinker's tools to craft a temporary charm. The magic of artificers is tied to their tools and their talents.

Becoming An Artificer…

As a Level 1 Character

• Gain all the traits in the Core Artificer Traits table.
• Gain the Artificer’s level 1 features, which are listed in the Artificer Features table.

As a Multiclass Character

• Gain the following traits from the Core Artificer Traits table: Hit Point Die, proficiency with Thieve’s Tools and Tinker’s Tools, and training with Light and Medium armor and Shields.
• Gain the Artificer’s level 1 features, which are listed in the Artificer Features table. See the Multiclassing rules in Chapter 2 of the Player’s Handbook to determine your available spell slots. You add half your Artificer levels (rounded up) to determine your spell slots, like Paladins and Rangers.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Like all spellcasters it has a Prepared Spells column in the table. Like the Paladin and Ranger, the Artificer can only change one spell preparation on a Long Rest.
• The Infusions Known and Infusions Active columns have been combined in the table
• Arcane Tinkerer is a new feature that allows the Artificer to use their Intelligence with Tinker’s Tools, and grants them Magical Tinkering, which is now a spell
• Artificer’s Ingenuity is a new resource for the Artificer, which is regained on a Short Rest starting at level 1. A column for it has been added to the table. Flash of Genius has been incorporated into it at level 1, but only with ability checks. Also, the creature must have failed the check to trigger it.
• When you exceed your max infusions, you now choose which previous one ends.
• Tinker’s Talent is a new feature which allows the Artificer to choose to focus on weapon use or spellcasting - a choice that was previously made for them by their subclass.

• Weaponsmith grants proficiency with martial weapons, Intelligence-based weapon attacks, and one Weapon Mastery.

• Arcanosmith grants an extra cantrip, and Expertise in Arcana and the ability to recover one spell slot on a Short Rest.
• The subclass’ Level 5 feature has been pushed back to level 6.

  ---

Artificer Features Table

• Honed Talent at level 5 improves Tinker’s Talent

• Weaponsmiths get Extra Attack
• Arcanosmiths add their INT to their spell damage

• At level 7, Flash of Genius can be used on Saving throws, just like 2014
• Artisan’s Knack is a new feature at level 13 that allows the Artificer to use tools and magic items as a Bonus Action
• Synergistic Infusions is a new feature at level 17 that allows the Artificer to apply an infusion to a magic item.
• Soul of Artifice now grants you 30 Hit Points when you use the Reaction to end an Infusion

Click here for a guide on how to use this class on DndBeyond

Level 1: Spellcasting

You’ve studied the workings of magic and how to cast spells, channeling the magic through objects. To observers, you don’t appear to be casting spells in a conventional way; you appear to produce wonders from mundane items and outlandish inventions. See chapter 7 of the Player’s Handbook for the rules on spellcasting. The information below details how you use those rules with Artificer spells, which appear in the Artificer spell list later in this class's description.

Cantrips. You know two cantrips of your choice from the Artificer spell list. Fire Bolt and Mending are recommended.

Whenever you gain an Artificer level, you can replace one of your cantrips with another cantrip of your choice from the Artificer spell list.

When you reach Artificer levels 10 and 14, you learn another cantrip of your choice from the Artificer spell list, as shown in the Cantrips column of the Artificer Features table.

Spell Slots. The Artificer Features table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your level 1 spells. You regain all expended slots when you finish a Long Rest.

         Prepared Spells of Level 1+. You prepare the list of level 1+ spells that are available for you to cast with this feature. To start, choose two level 1 Artificer spells. Faerie Fire and Identify are recommended.

The number of spells on your list increases as you gain Artificer levels, as shown in the Prepared Spells column of the Artificer Features table. Whenever that number increases, choose additional Artificer spells until the number of spells on your list matches the number in the Artificer Features table. The chosen spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you’re a level 5 Artificer, your list of prepared spells can include six Artificer spells of level 1 or 2 in any combination.

If another Artificer feature gives you spells that you may always have prepared, those spells don't count against the number of spells you can prepare with this feature, but those spells otherwise count as Artificer spells for you.

Changing Your Prepared Spells. Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can replace one spell on your list with another Artificer spell for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your Artificer spells.

Tools Required. You produce your Artificer spell effects through your tools. You must have a spellcasting focus—specifically Thieves’ Tools or some kind of Artisan’s Tool—in hand when you cast any spell with this Spellcasting feature (meaning the spell has an ‘M’ component when you cast it). You must be proficient with the tool to use it in this way. See chapter 6, “Equipment,” in the Player’s Handbook for descriptions of these tools.

After you gain the Infuse Item feature at level 2, you can also use any item bearing one of your infusions as a spellcasting focus.

Level 1: Arcane Tinkerer

Your knack for tinkering has taught you to store minor magical effects in mundane objects. You know the Magical Tinkering cantrip, which doesn’t count against the number of cantrips you know.

Further, whenever you make an ability check with Tinker’s Tools, you can use your Intelligence as the ability, instead of Dexterity.

Level 1: Artificer’s Ingenuity

Your prowess with tinkering and technology has provided you with a knack for solving problems, which manifests as a pool of Ingenuity Points.

        Number of Points. You have a number of Ingenuity Points as shown in the Ingenuity column of the Artificer Features table, and you regain all expended points when you finish a Long Rest. When you finish a Short Rest, you can regain up to half your maximum amount (rounded down). You then cannot do so again until you finish a Long Rest.

        Flash of Genius. When you or a creature within 30 feet of you fails an ability check, you can use your Reaction to expend one Ingenuity Point and add your Intelligence modifier to the roll, potentially turning it into a success.

Level 2: Tinkerer’s Talent

You have developed means of protecting yourself in a fight. Select one of the following two Talents:

Weaponsmith

You prefer to use equipment to protect yourself.

Extra Proficiencies. You have proficiency with Martial weapons.

Intelligent Attacks. When you make an attack with a magic weapon with which you have proficiency, you can choose to use your Intelligence modifier for the attack and damage rolls, instead of Strength or Dexterity.

Weapon Mastery. Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can touch a weapon with which you have proficiency. Until you next finish a Long Rest, you can use the Mastery property of that weapon. Starting at level 10, you can touch two weapons when you finish a Long Rest and gain their Mastery Properties, instead of one.

Arcanosmith

You favor focussing on your spellcasting to protect you.

Extra Proficiency. Your devotion to learning arcane magic grants you proficiency with the Arcana skill. If you already have this proficiency, you instead gain Expertise.

Extra Cantrip. You know one extra cantrip from the Artificer spell list. You gain another extra Artificer cantrip of your choice at level 10.

Spell Recovery. Whenever you finish a Short Rest, you can regain one expended spell slot of your choice. The level of the spell slot cannot exceed your highest spell slot level as shown on the Artificer Features table, even if you are a multiclassed character.

Level 2: Infuse Item

You gain the ability to imbue mundane items with certain magical infusions. The magic items you create with this feature are effectively prototypes of permanent items.

Infusions Known. When you gain this feature, pick four Infusions to learn, choosing from the “Artificer Infusions” section in Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything. You learn additional Infusions of your choice when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Infusions Known column of the Artificer Features table.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the Infusions you learned with a new one.

Infusing an Item. Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can touch a non-magical object and imbue it with one of your Infusions, turning it into a magic item. An Infusion works on only certain kinds of objects, as specified in the infusion’s description. If the item requires attunement, you can attune yourself to it the instant you infuse the item. If you decide to attune to the item later, you must do so using the normal process for attunement (see “Attunement” in chapter 7 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide).

Your Infusion remains in an item indefinitely, but when you die, the Infusion vanishes after a number of days have passed equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 day). The Infusion also vanishes if you give up your knowledge of the Infusion for another one.

You can infuse more than one nonmagical object at the end of a Long Rest; the maximum number of objects appears in parentheses in the Infusions Known column of the Artificer Features table. You must touch each of the objects, and each of your Infusions can be in only one object at a time. Moreover, no object can bear more than one of your Infusions at a time. If you try to exceed your maximum number of Infusions, one Infusion of your choice immediately ends, and then the new Infusion applies.

If an Infusion ends on an item that contains other things, like a Bag of Holding, its contents harmlessly appear in and around its space.

Level 3: Artificer Subclass

You gain an Artificer subclass of your choice: Alchemist, Artillerist, Armorer, or Battle Smith. Subclasses are detailed after this class’s description.

A subclass is a specialization that grants you special abilities at certain Artificer levels. For the rest of your career, you gain each of your subclass’s features that are of your Artificer level and lower.

Level 3: Right Tool for the Job

You learn how to produce exactly the tool you need: with Thieves’ Tools or Artisan’s Tools, you can magically create one set of Artisan’s Tools in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you. This creation requires 1 hour of uninterrupted work, which can coincide with a Short or Long Rest. Though the product of magic, the tools are nonmagical, and they vanish when you use this feature again.

Level 4: Ability Score Improvement

You gain the Ability Score Improvement feat or another feat of your choice for which you qualify. As shown on the Artificer Features table, you gain this feature again at levels 8, 12, and 16.

Level 5: Honed Talent.

You gain a benefit depending on the Artificer’s Talent you chose at level 1:

Weaponsmith. Whenever you take the Attack action on your turn, you can attack twice, rather than once.

Arcanosmith. When you cast an Artificer spell, you can add your Intelligence modifier (minimum +1) to one of the spell’s damage rolls.

Level 6: Tool Expertise

Whenever you make an ability check that uses your proficiency with a Tool, you have Expertise with that check.

Level 7: Flash of Genius Improvement

You can now use your Flash of Genius Reaction on failed saving throws, as well as ability checks, following all the same rules.

Level 10: Magic Item Adept

You have achieved a profound understanding of how to use and make magic items:

Four Attunements. You can attune to up to four magic items at once.

Quick Craft. If you craft a magic item with a rarity of common or uncommon, it takes you a quarter of the normal time, and it costs you half as much of the usual gold.

Level 11: Spell Storing Item

You learn how to store a spell in an object. Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can touch one Simple or Martial weapon or one item that you can use as a spellcasting focus, and you store a spell in it, choosing a level 1 or 2 spell from the Artificer spell list that has an action casting time (you needn’t have it prepared).

While holding the object, a creature can take the Magic action to produce the spell’s effect from it, using your spellcasting ability modifier. If the spell requires Concentration, the creature must Concentrate. The spell stays in the object until it’s been used a number of times equal to twice your Intelligence modifier (minimum of twice) or until you use this feature again to store a spell in an object.

Level 13: Artisan’s Knack  

Your magical connection to equipment allows you to utilize your gear extremely swiftly when the need arises. As a Bonus Action, you can use the Utilize action for a set of tools with which you’re proficient, or the Magic action to activate a magic item.

Level 14: Magic Item Savant

Your skill with magic items has only deepened, granting you the following benefits:

Five Attunements. You can attune to up to five magic items at once.

Omnitalented. You ignore all class, species, spell, and level requirements on attuning to or using a magic item.

Level 17: Synergistic Infusions

Your mastery over artifice allows you to mix magics and apply your Infusions to items already harboring magic.

Magic items. A magic item can bear one of your Infusions, unless it is an artifact.  

Mundane items. A nonmagical item now can bear up to two of your Infusions at once. You cannot apply the same Infusion to an object multiple times.

Numerical Bonuses. If both the magic item and the infusion (or both infusions) provide a bonus to attack and damage rolls, or to AC, add the bonuses together, but the combined bonus is reduced to +3 if it would otherwise exceed it.

Attunement. If both the magic item and the infusion (or both infusions) require attunement, you must attune to each set of benefits separately.

Level 18: Magic Item Master

Your mastery over magic items reaches its zenith.

Six Attunements. You can attune to up to six magic items at once.

Level 19: Epic Boon

You gain an Epic Boon feat (see chapter 5 of the Player’s Handbook) or another feat of your choice for which you qualify. Boon of Spell Recall is recommended.

Level 20: Soul of Artifice

You have developed a mystical connection to your magic items, which you can draw on for protection:

Armored Soul. You gain a +1 bonus to all saving throws per magic item you are currently attuned to.

Infusion Contingency. If you’re reduced to 0 Hit Points but not killed out-right, you can use your Reaction to end one of your Infusions, causing you to drop to 1 hit point instead of 0, and you instantly regain 30 Hit Points.

Artificer Spell List

New spells not in the 2014 spell list are bold and underlined 

* Spell from Xanathar’s Guide to Everything

** Spell from Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything

Consult with your DM as to whether spells from these books are available in your game.

Alchemist

Updated by Spaghetti0
Brew and Administer Magical Elixirs

An Alchemist is an expert at combining reagents to produce mystical effects. Alchemists use their creations to give life and to leech it away. Alchemy is the oldest of artificer traditions, and its versatility has long been valued during times of war and peace.

Level 3: Tool Proficiency

You have proficiency with Alchemist’s Supplies. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of Artisan’s Tools of your choice.

Level 3: Alchemist Spells

Your skills in alchemy ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach an Artificer level specified in the Alchemist Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Alchemist Spells

Level 3: Experimental Elixir

You have learned to produce magical potions called Experimental Elixirs, which sometimes have random effects:

Random Elixirs. Whenever you finish a Short or Long Rest, you can magically produce an Elixir in an empty flask you touch. Roll on the Experimental Elixir table for the elixir’s effect, which is triggered when someone drinks the elixir. The number of Elixirs you can make in this way increases to two at level 10, rolling for each elixir separately, and containing each in its own flask.  

Controlled Elixirs. As a Magic action, you can expend two Ingenuity Points to produce one Elixir in a flask you touch. Instead of rolling, you choose the desired effect from the Experimental Elixir table.  

Drinking and Administering Elixirs. As a Bonus Action, a creature can drink the elixir or administer it to an Incapacitated creature.

        Alchemical Limitations. Creating an Experimental Elixir requires you to have Alchemist’s Supplies on your person, and any Elixir you create with this feature lasts until it is drunk or until the end of your next Short or Long Rest.

Experimental Elixir Table

Level 3: Alchemical Grenades

Through your explorations into alchemy you have learned to make explosive concoctions that can be lobbed at groups of enemies.

Creating a Grenade. When you start casting a spell using your Alchemist’s Supplies as the spellcasting focus, you can turn that casting into an Alchemical Grenade. The spell must deal Acid, Fire, Necrotic or Poison damage. You can ignore any verbal components for this casting of the spell.

Alchemical Explosion. When you cast a spell in this way and only target one creature with it, each creature within 5 feet of the target, other than the target itself, must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC. A creature that fails its saving throw takes damage of the spell’s type equal to half your Artificer level (rounded up). The spell does not gain this benefit if it already targets an area.
The radius of this explosion increases to 10 feet when you reach level 9 in this class.

Level 6: Alchemical Savant

You've developed masterful command of magical chemicals, enhancing the healing and damage you create through them.

Enhanced Healing. Whenever you cast a spell using your Alchemist’s supplies that restores Hit Points to a creature, you can add your Intelligence modifier (minimum +1) to one healing roll of the spell. You add the same bonus to the Healing roll of the Healing effect of your Experimental Elixir.

Deadly Toxins. Whenever you use your Alchemical Grenades feature and use the Alchemical Explosion benefit, you add your Intelligence modifier to the explosion’s damage. The affected creatures still take half damage on a successful saving throw.

Level 9: Restorative Reagents

You can incorporate restorative reagents into some of your works:

Fortifying Elixirs. Whenever a creature drinks an experimental elixir you created, the creature gains Temporary Hit Points equal to 2d6 + your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 Temporary Hit Point).

Lesser Restoration. You always have the Lesser Restoration spell prepared, and you can expend an Ingenuity Point to cast it without expending a spell slot, provided you use Alchemist’s Supplies as the spellcasting focus.

Level 15: Chemical Mastery

You have been exposed to so many chemicals that they pose little risk to you, and you can use them to quickly end certain ailments:

Chemical Resistance. You gain Resistance to Acid damage and Poison damage, and you have immunity to the Poisoned condition.

Mastered Alchemy. You can cast the Greater Restoration and Tasha’s Bubbling Cauldron spells without expending a spell slot, without preparing the spell, and without material components, provided you use Alchemist’s Supplies as the spellcasting focus. Once you cast either spell with this feature, you can’t cast that spell with it again until you finish a Long Rest.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Experimental Elixirs are now created on a Short or Long Rest, and can be created with two Ingenuity Points. They now expire when you have a Short Rest. The scaling has been altered to creating two for free at level 10, and no longer scaling to 3 at level 15.

• The Healing option now adds half your Artificer level, instead of your Intelligence modifier.
• The Boldness benefit now grants the benefits of the Bless spell.
• The Flight benefit’s Speed now equals half the drinker’s Speed
• The Transformation benefit now prohibits the ability of Alter Self to change your appearance again.

• Alchemical Grenades is a new feature that allows the Alchemist to deal some AOE damage with their spells
• Alchemical Savant now adds healing to the ‘healing’ Experimental Elixir, and now modifies the Alchemical Grenades feature for damage.
• Restorative Reagents now allows you to cast Lesser Restoration with an Ingenuity Point.
• The Heal spell in Chemical Mastery has been replaced with Tasha’s Bubbling Cauldron.

Armorer

Updated by Spaghetti0
Don Magical and Customisable Armor

An artificer who specializes as an Armorer modifies armor to function almost like a second skin. The armor is enhanced to hone the Artificer’s magic, unleash potent attacks, and generate a formidable defense. The Artificer bonds with this armor, becoming one with it even as they experiment with it and refine its magical capabilities.

Level 3: Tools of the Trade

You have Training with Heavy Armor and proficiency with Smith’s Tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of Artisan’s Tools of your choice.

In addition, whenever you make an ability check with Smith’s Tools, you can use your Intelligence as the ability, instead of Strength.

Level 3: Armorer Spells

Your tinkering with Arcane Armor ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach an Artificer level specified in the Armorer Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Armorer Spells

Level 3: Arcane Armor

Your metallurgical pursuits have led to you making armor a conduit for your magic. As a Magic action, you can turn a suit of armor you are wearing into Arcane Armor, provided you have Smith’s Tools in hand. The armor continues to be Arcane Armor until you don another suit of armor or you die.

You gain the following benefits while wearing this armor:

        Self Supporting. If the armor normally has a Strength requirement, the Arcane Armor lacks this requirement for you.

        Spellcasting Focus. You can use the Arcane Armor as a spellcasting focus for your Artificer spells.

        Second Skin. The armor attaches to you and can’t be removed against your will. It also expands to cover your entire body, although you can retract or deploy the helmet as a Bonus Action. The armor replaces any missing limbs, functioning identically to a limb it replaces.

        Quick Don/Doff. You can doff or don the armor as an action.

Level 3: Armor Model

You can customize your Arcane Armor. When you do so, choose one of the following armor models: Guardian or Infiltrator. The model you choose gives you special benefits while you wear it.

Special Weapon. Each model includes a special weapon. You can only use the Mastery property of the weapon if another feature allows you to use it, as normal.

Changing the Model. You can change the armor’s model whenever you finish a Short or Long Rest, provided you have Smith’s Tools in hand.

Guardian

You design your armor to be in the front line of conflict. It has the following features:

Thunder Gauntlets. Each of the armor’s gauntlets counts as a Simple Melee weapon while you aren’t holding anything in it, and it deals 1d8 Thunder damage on a hit. The gauntlets have the Push Mastery property.

Distracting Pulse. When you hit a creature with a melee attack, it has Disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you until the start of your next turn, as the armor magically emits a distracting pulse when the creature attacks someone else.

Defensive Field. As a Bonus Action, you can expend one Ingenuity Point to gain Temporary Hit Points equal to your level in this class. You lose these Temporary Hit Points if you doff the armor.

Infiltrator

You customize your armor for subtle undertakings. It has the following features:

Lightning Launcher. A gemlike node appears on one of your armored fists or on the chest (your choice). It counts as a Simple Ranged weapon, with a normal range of 90 feet and a long range of 300 feet, and it deals 1d6 Lightning damage on a hit. The Lightning Launcher has the Vex Mastery property.

Lightning Arc. Once per turn when you hit a creature with a ranged attack, you can deal an extra 1d6 Lightning damage to that target, as your armor arcs electricity between itself and the target.

Powered Steps. As a Bonus Action, you can expend 1 Ingenuity Point to take the Disengage action. When you do so, your Speed is increased by 15 feet until the end of your turn.

Dampening Field. You have Advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks. If the armor normally imposes Disadvantage on such checks, the Advantage and Disadvantage cancel each other, as normal.

Level 6: Armor Overcharge

As a Bonus Action while wearing your Arcane Armor, you can expend one Ingenuity Point to flood it with magical energy. You gain the following benefit depending on your armor model for 1 minute, until you have the Incapacitated condition, or until you doff the armor.

        Guardian. You can make an attack with your Thunder Gauntlets as a Bonus Action, including as part of the Bonus Action you use to activate this feature.

        Infiltrator. You gain a Fly Speed of 30 feet. When you activate your Powered Steps, this Speed increases by 15 feet until the end of your turn.

Level 9: Armor Modifications

You learn how to use your Infusions to specially modify your Arcane Armor.

Infusing the Armor. Your Arcane Armor now counts as separate items for the purposes of your Infuse Item feature: armor (the chest piece), boots, helmet, and the armor’s special weapon. Each of those items can bear one of your Infusions, and the Infusions transfer over if you change your armor’s model with the Armor Model feature.

Free Infusions. The maximum number of items you can Infuse at once increases by 2, but those extra items must be part of your Arcane Armor.

Level 15: Perfected Armor

Your Arcane Armor gains additional benefits based on its model, as shown below.

Guardian. When a Huge or smaller creature you can see ends its turn within 30 feet of you, you can take a Reaction to expend one Ingenuity Point and magically force the creature to make a Strength saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, you pull the creature up to 25 feet directly to an unoccupied space. If you pull the target to a space within 5 feet of you, you can make a melee attack against it as part of this Reaction.

Infiltrator. When you deal damage to a creature with an attack, or one fails a saving throw against one of your spells, you can expend one Ingenuity Point to cause your Lightning Launcher to light up that creature, which glimmers in a 5-foot radius until the start of your next turn. During this time, it has Disadvantage on attack rolls against you, as the light jolts it if it attacks you. In addition, once per turn when it is targeted with an attack, that attack has Advantage, and if it hits, the target takes an extra 1d6 Lightning Damage.

Update log

• Language changes.
• You can now use your Intelligence for ability checks with Smith’s Tools.
• The Armor Model weapons now have Mastery Properties, though the subclass itself doesn’t grant access to them.
• The extra benefits of the weapons have been divorced from using the weapons themselves, reflecting the new option to focus on spellcasting.

• Making attacks with Intelligence is now an option of the Tinkerer’s Talent feature at level 2.
• The Distracting Pulse can now be used with any melee attack (whether by weapon or spell), not just the thunder gauntlets.
• The extra lightning damage can now be dealt by any ranged attack (whether by weapon or spell), not just the lightning launcher.
• These changes also now allow the armorer to use their subclass features even if they want to use a magic weapon they find.

• Defensive Field is now fueled by your Artificer’s Ingenuity 
• Powered Steps has been reworked. Instead of a 5 foot Speed boost, you can spend an Ingenuity Point to Disengage and move an extra 15 feet as a Bonus Action.
• Extra Attack has been cut, as it is now an option in the base class.
• Armor Overcharge is a new feature at level 6, which allows the Guardian to make a bonus action attacks and the Infiltrator gets a fly speed.  
• Perfected Armor’s Guardian Benefit is now fuelled by Artificer’s Ingenuity
• Perfected Armor’s Infiltrator Benefit has been tweaked in several ways

• It can be triggered by hitting with any attack, and by failing a save against your spell.
• It is fueled by Artificer’s Ingenuity
• The Advantage and extra damage is now once per turn, not just once.

Artillerist

Updated by Spaghetti0
Blow Enemies Away with Magical Artillery

An Artillerist specializes in using magic to hurl energy, projectiles, and explosions on a battlefield. This destructive power is valued by armies in the wars on many different worlds. And when war passes, some members of this specialization seek to build a more peaceful world by using their powers to fight the resurgence of strife. The world-hopping gnome artificer Vi has been especially vocal about making things right: “It’s about time we fixed things instead of blowing them all to hell.”

Level 3: Tool Proficiency

You gain proficiency with Woodcarver’s Tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of artisan’s tools of your choice.

In addition, whenever you make an ability check with Woodcarver’s Tools, you can use your Intelligence as the ability, instead of Dexterity.

Level 3: Artillerist Spells

Your experimentation with explosive magic ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach an Artificer level specified in the Artillerist Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Artillerist Spells

Level 3: Eldritch Cannon

You've learned how to create a magical cannon.

Creating a Cannon. Using Woodcarver’s Tools or Smith’s Tools, you can take a Magic action to magically create a Small or Tiny Eldritch Cannon in an unoccupied space on a horizontal surface within 5 feet of you. A Small Eldritch Cannon occupies its space, and a Tiny one can be held in one hand. You can have only one cannon at a time and can’t create one while your cannon is present. Once you create a Cannon, you cannot do so again until you finish a Short or Long Rest, unless you expend 2 Ingenuity Points to use it again.

Cannon’s Statistics. The cannon is a magical object. Regardless of size, the cannon has an AC of 18 and a number of Hit Points equal to five times your Artificer level. It is immune to Poison damage and Psychic damage. If it is forced to make an ability check or a saving throw, treat all its ability scores as 10 (+0). If the Mending spell is cast on it, it regains 2d6 Hit Points. It disappears if it is reduced to 0 Hit Points or after 1 hour. You can dismiss it early as an action.

Cannon Model. When you create the cannon, you determine its appearance and whether it has legs. You also decide which type it is, choosing from the Flamethrower, Force Ballista and Protector. On each of your turns, you can take a Bonus Action to cause the cannon to activate if you are within 60 feet of it. As part of the same Bonus Action, you can direct the cannon to walk or climb up to 15 feet to an unoccupied space, provided it has legs.

        Flamethrower. The cannon exhales fire in an adjacent 15-foot Cone that you designate. Each creature in that area must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 2d8 Fire damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one. The fire ignites any flammable objects in the area that aren’t being worn or carried.

Force Ballista. Make a ranged spell attack, originating from the cannon, at one creature or object within 120 feet of it. On a hit, the target takes 2d8 Force damage, and if the target is a creature, it is pushed up to 5 feet away from the Cannon.

Protector. The cannon emits a burst of positive energy that grants itself and each creature of your choice within 10 feet of it a number of Temporary Hit Points equal to 1d8 + your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).

Level 6: Modular Cannon

When you create an Eldritch Cannon, you can choose one of the following enhancements for it to have:

        Adaptive Cannon. Immediately before you activate the Cannon, you can cause it to transform, changing its current type to one of the other options. Once you transform a Cannon twice, you cannot transform that Cannon again.

        Remote Spells. When you cast one of your Artificer spells, you can cast it as if you were in the Cannon’s space, using your senses.

Once you enhance a cannon in this way, you can’t do so again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you spend an Ingenuity Point to use the feature again.

Level 9: Explosive Cannon

Every eldritch cannon you create is more destructive:

Extra Damage. The cannon’s damage rolls all increase by 1d8.

Self Destruct. As a Magic action, you can command the cannon to detonate if you are within 60 feet of it. Doing so destroys the cannon and forces each creature within 20 feet of it to make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 4d8 Force damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one.

Level 15: Fortified Position

You’re a master at forming well-defended emplacements using Eldritch Cannon:

Half Cover. You and your allies have Half Cover while within 10 feet of a Cannon you create with Eldritch Cannon, as a result of a shimmering field of magical protection that the cannon emits.

Two Cannons. You can now have two Cannons at the same time. You can create two with the same action (but not the same Ingenuity Points), and you can activate both of them with the same Bonus Action. You determine whether the cannons are identical to each other or different. You can’t create a third cannon while you have two.

Update log

• Language changes.
• You can now use your Intelligence for ability checks with Woodcarver’s Tools.
• The Eldritch Cannon feature is now recharged on a Short Rest, and can be created with 2 Ingenuity Points rather than a Spell Slot.
• Modular Cannon is a new feature at level 6, which allows you to either cast spells from the cannon’s location, or shift its form each turn.
• The damage of Explosive Cannon’s Self Destruct has been increased to 4d8

Battle Smith

Updated by Spaghetti0
Arm and Protect your Allies with a Mechanical Companion

Armies require protection, and someone has to put things back together if defenses fail. A combination  of protector and medic, a Battle Smith is an expert at defending others and repairing both material and personnel. To aid in their work, Battle Smiths are usually accompanied by a steel defender, a protective companion of their own creation. Many soldiers tell stories of nearly dying before being saved by a Battle Smith and a steel defender.

In the world of Eberron, Battle Smiths played a key role in House Cannith’s work on battle constructs and the original warforged, and after the Last War, these artificers led efforts to aid those who were injured in the war’s horrific battles.

Level 3: Tool Proficiency

You have proficiency with Smith’s Tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of Artisan’s Tools of your choice.

In addition, whenever you make an ability check with Smith’s Tools, you can use your Intelligence as the ability, instead of Strength.

Level 3: Battle Smith Spells

Your combat training as a Battle Smith ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach an Artificer level specified in the Battle Smith Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Battle Smith Spells

Level 3: Steel Defender

Your tinkering has borne you a companion, a steel defender. It’s friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the Steel Defender stat block. You determine the creature’s appearance and whether it has two legs or four; your choice has no effect on its game statistics.

The Defender in Combat. In combat, the Defender shares your Initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its Reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a Bonus Action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you have the Incapacitated condition, the Defender can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.

Repairing or Replacing the Defender. If the Mending spell is cast on the Defender, it regains 2d6 Hit Points. If it has died within the last hour, you can use your Smith’s Tools as an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of level 1 or higher. The Steel Defender returns to life after 1 minute with all its Hit Points restored.

At the end of a Long Rest, you can create a new Steel Defender if you have Smith’s Tools with you. If you already have a Defender from this feature, the first one immediately perishes. The Defender also perishes if you die.

Level 6: Arcane Jolt

You've learned new ways to channel arcane energy to harm or heal. Once per turn when you hit a target with an attack, when a creature fails a save against your one of your spells, or your Steel Defender hits a target, you can expend an Ingenuity Point to channel magical energy through the strike to create one of the following effects:

Damaging Jolt. The target takes an extra 2d6 Force damage.

Healing Jolt. Choose one creature or object you can see within 30 feet of the target. Healing energy flows into the chosen recipient, restoring 2d6 Hit Points to it.

Level 9: Defender Modifications

You have learned to modify your Steel Defender, such that it can specialize its role on the battlefield. Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can grant your Steel defender one of the following sets of benefits, provided you have Smith’s Tools in hand. The modification remains indefinitely, unless you exchange it for another one by using this feature again.

        Forceful Rend. You make your Steel Defender a more threatening offensive force on the battlefield. The damage die of its Force Empowered Rend changes to 1d10, and when it hits a Large or smaller creature with it, the target must succeed on a Strength save against your spell save DC or have the Prone condition.

        Mounting Support. You make your Steel Defender more suitable to ride as a mount. The Defender’s Speed increases by 10 feet, and you can use the Defender as a mount, even if your size is Medium. While you are mounted on your Defender, it acts as a Controlled Mount, meaning it acts on your Initiative. However, it is not restricted to the actions a controlled mount can take if you use your Bonus Action to command it, and it can use its Deflect Attack Reaction as normal without direction.

        Vigilant Deflector. You make your Defender even more protective of your allies on the battlefield. When a creature within 15 feet of it makes an attack, it can use its Reaction to Move up to 10 feet toward that creature without provoking Opportunity Attacks and immediately use Deflect Attack.

Level 15: Improved Defender

Your Arcane Jolt and steel defender become more powerful:

Improved Jolt. The extra damage and the healing of your Arcane Jolt both increase to 4d6.

Protected Defender. Your Steel Defender gains a +2 bonus to Armor Class.

Forceful Deflect. Whenever your Steel Defender uses its Deflect Attack, the attacker takes Force damage equal to 1d4 + your Intelligence modifier.

Update log

• Language changes.
• You can now use your Intelligence for ability checks with Smith’s Tools.
• Branding Smite was replaced with Aid, Conjure Barrage was replaced with Elemental Weapon and Blinding Smite was replaced with Animate Objects, as Paladin and Ranger exclusive spells are now only sparingly included in the spell lists of other classes, and Arcane Jolt is effectively a smite.
• Battle Ready has been cut, as its benefits moved to the main class.
• The Steel Defender has received several tweaks

• The hit points are now 10 + 5*Artificer level
• The Vigilant trait now allows you to not be surprised if you are within 30 feet of the Defender, reflecting the changes to Surprise.
• Force empowered Rend and Repair now use INT instead of PB
• Repair now uses your Artificer’s Ingenuity

• Extra Attack has been cut, as it is now an option in the base class.
• Arcane Jolt has received several tweaks

• It has been moved to level 6
• It is now fueled by your Artificer’s Ingenuity
• It can be triggered by a creature failing a save against one of your spells to reflect the fact that this subclass no longer necessarily has Extra Attack.

• Defender Modifications is a new feature that allows you to modify your Steel Defender.

Path of the Ancestral Guardian

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Defend your Allies with Ancestral Spirits

Some barbarians hail from cultures that revere their ancestors. These tribes teach that the warriors of the past linger in the world as mighty spirits, who can guide and protect the living. When a barbarian who follows this path rages, the barbarian contacts the spirit world and calls on these guardian spirits for aid.

Barbarians who draw on their ancestral guardians can better fight to protect their tribes and their allies. In order to cement ties to their ancestral guardians, barbarians who follow this path cover themselves in elaborate tattoos that celebrate their ancestors’ deeds. These tattoos tell sagas of victories against terrible monsters and other fearsome rivals.

Level 3: Ancestral Protectors

Spectral warriors appear when you enter your Rage. While your Rage is active, the first creature you hit with an attack on your turn becomes the target of the warriors, which hinder its attacks. Until the start of your next turn, that target has Disadvantage on any attack roll that isn't against you, and when the target hits a creature other than you with an attack, that creature has Resistance to the damage of the attack. The effect on the target ends early if your Rage ends.

Level 6: Spirit Shield

The guardian spirits that aid you can provide supernatural protection to those you defend. While your Rage is active and another creature you can see within 30 feet of you takes damage, you can use your Reaction to reduce that damage by 2d6. The damage reduction increases by an extra 1d6 at level 10 (3d6) and level 14 (4d6).

Level 10: Consult the Spirits

You gain the ability to consult with your ancestral spirits. You can cast the Augury or Clairvoyance spell without using a spell slot or material components. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for these spells. After you cast either spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Level 14: Vengeful Ancestors

Your ancestral spirits grow powerful enough to retaliate. When you use your Spirit Shield to reduce the damage of an attack, the attacker takes the same amount of Force damage.

Path of the Battlerager

Alternative name suggestion: Path of the Ravager

Updated by Spaghetti0 and PerfectlyCircularSeal
Assail Grappled Enemies with Spiked Armor

Often followers of gods of war, these furious Barbarians pride themselves in very close combat. They adorn their armor with metal pins and spikes that pierce a foe upon contact. These Barbarians often fight bare handed, preferring to instead grab and wrestle with their enemies as their armor pokes bleeding holes in them.

Level 3: Ravager Armor

You adorn your armor with crude spikes with which you can slam your enemies. You gain a set of Smith’s Tools and you have proficiency with them. You can spend 1 minute using the Smith’s Tools to turn a set of Light or Medium Armor into your Ravager Armor, fastening metal spikes to it.

While wearing your Ravager Armor, you gain the following benefits:

        Barbed. You have Advantage on saving throws to avoid or end the Grappled condition.

        Spiked Slam. When you make an Unarmed Strike and take the Damage option, you can slam into the target with your armor, dealing Piercing damage equal to 1d6 plus your Strength modifier, instead of the normal damage for an Unarmed Strike.

        Spiky Embrace. At the start of each of your turns while you have a creature Grappled, it takes Piercing damage equal to your Strength modifier (minimum 1 damage).

Level 3: Ravager’s Hold

Your furious grip becomes extremely tight as you press your spiked armor into your enemies. When your Rage is active, you gain the following benefits:

        Tight Grip. You add half of your Constitution modifier (rounded up, minimum +1) to the saving throw DC of your Unarmed Strikes.

        Raging Hold. You add your Rage Damage bonus to the damage of your Spiky Embrace.

Level 6: Spiked Retribution

When a creature hits you with a melee attack, you can use your Reaction to make an Unarmed Strike against it. This Unarmed Strike can only be used to Grapple.

Level 10: Death Roll

While your Rage is active and you have one or more creatures Grappled, you can use your Bonus Action to perform a Death Roll. You move yourself to an unoccupied space you can see within 10 feet of you, dragging the Grappled creatures along with you. This movement doesn’t provoke Opportunity Attacks. During this movement, you violently spin and slam your Grappled targets around you, dealing 2d8 Piercing damage to each target. The damage increases by 1d8 at level 15 (3d8) and at level 20 (4d8).

Level 14: Ravager’s Might

Once per turn, while your Rage is active and you have one or more creatures Grappled, you can forgo one of your attacks to use the Grappled creature as a weapon, provided the creature is the same size as you or smaller and you have nothing in your hands. You choose one of the following options:

        Roundhouse Sweep. You spin one of the Grappled creatures around you. Each creature within 10 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC equal to 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus plus your Strength modifier). On a failed save, a creature takes 3d8 Bludgeoning damage and is pushed 10 feet away from you. The Grappled creature takes 2d8 Bludgeoning damage.

        Seismic Toss. You throw one of the Grappled creatures at a target you can see within 20 feet of you. The Grappled creature and the target make a Strength save (DC equal to 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus plus your Strength modifier). On a failed save, a creature takes 2d8 Bludgeoning damage and has the Prone condition.

Update log

• The subclass was redesigned from the ground up.

Path of the Beast

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Transform to Gain Savage Bestial Traits

Barbarians who walk the Path of the Beast draw their rage from a bestial spark burning within their souls. That beast bursts forth in the throes of rage, physically transforming the barbarian.

Such a barbarian might be inhabited by a primal spirit or be descended from shape-shifters. You can choose the origin of your feral might or determine it by rolling on the Origin of the Beast table.

Origin of the Beast

Level 3: Form of the Beast

While your Rage is active, the bestial power within you manifests into a natural weapon, which counts as a Simple Melee Weapon for you. You choose the weapon’s form each time you enter your Rage, and you can use its Mastery property:

Bite. Your mouth transforms into a bestial muzzle or great mandibles (your choice). It deals 1d8 Piercing damage on a hit and has the Sap Mastery property. Once per turn, when you damage a creature with it, you regain a number of Hit Points equal to your Constitution Modifier, provided you are Bloodied.

Claws. Each of your hands transforms into a claw, which you can use as a weapon if it’s empty. It deals 1d6 Slashing damage on a hit and has the Slow Mastery property. Once per turn, when you use the Attack action with it, you can make an extra attack as part of the same action.

Tail. You grow a lashing, spiny tail, which deals 1d8 Piercing damage on a hit and has the Reach property and the Topple Mastery property. If a creature you can see within 10 feet of you hits you with an attack roll, you can use your Reaction to swipe your tail between you and the attack. Roll a d8 and add the result to your Armor Class for triggering attack.

Level 6: Bestial Soul

The feral power within you increases.

Supernatural Beast. Whenever you deal damage with your natural weapon, you can deal your choice of Force damage or its normal damage type.

Whenever you finish a Short or Long Rest, choose one of the following benefits, which lasts until you finish your next Short or Long Rest

• You have a Swim Speed equal to your Speed, and you can breathe underwater
• You gain a Climb Speed equal to your Speed and you can climb difficult surfaces including upside down on ceilings without needing to make an ability check.
• Once per turn when you jump you can make a Strength (Athletics) check and extend your jump by a number of feet equal to the check’s total.

Level 10: Infectious Fury

When you hit a creature with the natural weapons of your Form of the Beast, you can curse your target with rabid fury. It makes a Wisdom save (DC equal to 8 plus your Strength Modifier plus your Proficiency Bonus). On a failed save it has one of the following curses:

Confusion. The target must use its Reaction to make a melee attack against another creature of your choice that you can see.

Dread. The target takes 2d12 Psychic damage.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Strength modifier, and regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 14: Call the Hunt

The beast within you grows so powerful that you can spread its ferocity to others and gain resilience from them joining your hunt. When you enter your Rage, you can choose a number of willing creatures you can see within 30 feet of you equal to your Strength modifier (minimum of 1). You gain 5 Temporary Hit Points for each creature that accepts this feature. While your Rage is active, once on their turns, the chosen creatures can deal an extra 1d6 damage on an attack they make. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Strength Modifier (minimum of 1) and regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Added mastery property to natural weapons.
• Level 6 magical weapon damage is now Force.
• All features with uses equal to PB are now equal to STR mod.

Path of the Giant

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Channel the Stature and Power of Giants

Barbarians who walk the Path of the Giant draw strength from the same primal forces as giants. As they rage, these barbarians surge with elemental power and grow in size, taking on forms that evoke the glory of giants. Some barbarians look like oversized versions of themselves, perhaps with a hint of elemental energy flaring in their eyes and around their weapons. Others transform more dramatically, taking on the appearance of an actual giant or a form similar to an Elemental, wreathed in fire, frost, or lightning.

Level 3: Giant’s Power

The primal force of giants wreaths within you.

Giant's Tongue. You can speak, read, and write Giant or one other language of your choice if you already know Giant.

Giant Magic. You learn the Elementalism cantrip and one other cantrip of your choice: either Druidcraft or Thaumaturgy. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

Level 3: Giant’s Havoc

Your rage pulls strength from the primal might of giants, transforming you into a hulking force of destruction. When your Rage is active, you gain the following benefits:

Giant's Cleaver. You choose one weapon you are holding and infuse it with primordial power. It gains the Thrown (20/60) property and if it already has the Thrown property its normal and long range increase by 20 feet. If you throw the weapon, it instantly reappears in your hand after you hit or miss a target. The weapon's infusion is suppressed while a creature other than you wields it.

Giant Stature. Your reach increases by 5 feet, and if you are smaller than Large, you can choose to become Large, along with anything you are wearing. If there isn’t enough room for you to increase your size, your size doesn’t change.

Level 6: Element of Power

Your physique is bolstered by the primordial elements.

Elemental Fortitude. You have Resistance to one of the following damage types of your choice: Acid, Cold, Fire, Thunder, or Lightning. You can choose a different type when you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Elemental Cleaver. When you use your Giant's Cleaver, the weapon is infused with one of the following damage types: Acid, Cold, Fire, Thunder, or Lightning. Its damage type changes to the chosen type and it deals an extra 1d6 damage on a hit. You can use your Bonus Action to change the damage type.

Level 10: Mighty Impel

Your connection to giant strength allows you to hurl both allies and enemies on the battlefield. As a Bonus Action while your Rage is active, you can choose one Medium or smaller creature within your reach and move it to an unoccupied space you can see within 30 feet of you. An unwilling creature must succeed on a Strength save (DC equals 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus plus your Strength modifier) to avoid the effect. If, at the end of this movement, the thrown creature isn’t on a surface or liquid that can support it, the creature falls, taking damage as normal and landing prone.

Level 14: Demiurgic Colossus

The primordial power of your rage intensifies.

Colossal Stature. While your Rage is active, your reach increases by 10 feet, your size can increase to Large or Huge (your choice), and you can use your Mighty Impel to move creatures that are Large or smaller.

Improved Elemental Cleaver. The extra damage dealt by your Elemental Cleaver feature increases to 2d6.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Added Elementalism cantrip to Giant’s Power
• Moved part of Elemental Cleaver (the throwing part) to level 3 and added extra range in case the weapon already has the Thrown property.
• Added Elemental Fortitude at Level 6.

Path of the Storm Herald

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Tap into the Roiling Storm Within

Typical barbarians harbor a fury that dwells within. Their rage grants them superior strength, durability, and speed. Barbarians who follow the Path of the Storm Herald learn instead to transform their rage into a mantle of primal magic that swirls around them. When in a fury, a barbarian of this path taps into nature to create powerful, magical effects.

Storm heralds are typically elite champions who train alongside druids, rangers, and others sworn to protect the natural realm. Other storm heralds hone their craft in elite lodges founded in regions wracked by storms, in the frozen reaches at the world’s end, or deep in the hottest deserts.

Level 3: Storm Aura

While your Rage is active, a storm whips around you in a 10 foot Emanation. As part of the Bonus Action you use to activate or maintain your Rage, you can cause one of the following effects. You choose which when you activate your Rage. If the effect requires a saving throw, the DC equals 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus and your Strength modifier.

Desert. All other creatures within the Emanation take Fire damage equal to 1d4 plus your Rage Damage bonus.

Sea. You choose one other creature you can see within the Emanation. It must make a Dexterity save. On a failure, it takes Lightning damage equal to 1d6 plus your Strength modifier and half as much on a successful save. This damage increases by 1d6 at level 10, level 15, and at level 20.

Tundra. Each creature of your choice within the Emanation gains Temporary Hit Points equal to 1d4 plus your Rage Damage bonus, which last until your Rage ends.

Level 6: Storm Soul

The storm grants you benefits even when your Storm Aura isn't active. Whenever you finish a Short or Long Rest choose one of the following effects, which lasts until you finish your next Short or Long Rest:

Desert. You have Resistance to Fire damage and you don’t suffer effects caused by extreme heat, and as an action you can touch a flammable object that isn't being worn or carried by anyone else and set it on fire.

Sea. You have Resistance to Lightning damage, you can breathe underwater, and you have a Swim Speed equal to your Speed.

Tundra. You have Resistance to Cold damage and you don’t suffer effects caused by extreme cold, and as an action you can touch a 5-foot Cube of water and turn it into ice, which melts after 1 minute. This action fails if a creature is in the Cube.

Level 10: Shielding Storm

You learn to use your mastery of the storm to protect others. Each creature of your choice has Resistance to the damage type of your Storm Soul feature while it is within your Storm Aura.

Level 14: Raging Storm

The power of your Storm Aura grows mightier, lashing out at your foes.

Desert. Immediately after a creature within the Emanation hits you with an attack, you can use your Reaction to force that creature to make a Dexterity save. On a failed save, the creature takes Fire damage equal to your Barbarian level.

Sea. When you hit a creature within the Emanation with an attack, you can use your Reaction to force that creature to make a Strength save. On a failed save, the creature takes an extra 2d6 Cold damage and has the Prone condition.

Tundra. Whenever you activate the effect of your Storm Aura, you choose one creature you can see within the Emanation. That creature must succeed on a Strength save, or has its Speed reduced to 0 until the start of your next turn.

Update log

• Language changes.
• You can now choose the Storm Aura effect every time you enter your rage, not when you level up.

• Increased damage of Desert to 1d4 + Rage instead of flat 2.
• Added STR mod to damage of Sea
• Increased temp hp of Tundra to 1d4 + Rage instead of flat 2.

• You can now choose your Storm Soul effect on every Short or Long Rest.
• Raging Storm effects are updated

• Desert now deals Barb level instead of half Barb level.
• Sea now deals extra Cold damage.

Path of Wild Magic

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Create Chaotic Effects with your Rage

Many places in the multiverse abound with beauty, intense emotion, and rampant magic; the Feywild, the Upper Planes, and other realms of supernatural power radiate with such forces and can profoundly influence people. As folk of deep feeling, barbarians are especially susceptible to these wild influences, with some barbarians being transformed by the magic. These magic-suffused barbarians walk the Path of Wild Magic. Elf, tiefling, aasimar, and genasi barbarians often seek this path, eager to manifest the otherworldly magic of their ancestors.

Level 3: Magic Awareness

As an action, you can cast the Detect Magic spell without spending a spell slot. Strength is your spellcasting ability for it. When you do so, the range is 60 feet and you don’t need to Concentrate on it. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Strength modifier (minimum of 1) and regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 3: Wild Surge

The magical energy roiling inside you sometimes erupts from you. When you enter your Rage, roll on the Wild Magic table to determine the magical effect produced. If the effect requires a save, the DC equals 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus + your Strength modifier.

Level 6: Bolstering Magic

You can harness your wild magic to bolster yourself or a companion. As an action, you can touch a creature and confer one of the following benefits of your choice to it:

Might. Whenever the creature makes a D20 Test it can roll a d4 and add it to the result. This effect lasts for 10 minutes.

Mana. The creature rolls a d4 and regains an expended spell slot of the level equal to the number rolled or lower (the creature’s choice). Once a creature receives this benefit, it can’t receive it again until they finish a Long Rest.

You can this feature a number of times equal to your Strength modifier (minimum of 1) and regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 10: Unstable Backlash

When you are imperiled during your rage, the magic within you can lash out. When you take damage or fail a saving throw while your Rage is active, you can use your Reaction to roll on the Wild Magic table and immediately produce the effect. This effect replaces the active Wild Magic effect.

Level 14: Controlled Surge

Whenever you roll on the Wild Magic table, you can roll the die twice and choose which of the two effects to unleash. If you roll the same number on both dice, you can ignore the number and choose any effect on the table.

Wild Magic Table

Update log

• Language changes.
• All features now use Strength instead of CON or PB.
• Bolstering Magic (Mana) now rolls a d4 and takes the result without halving it.

College of Creation

Updated by Spaghetti0
Use the World’s Song to manifest your own Creations

Bards believe the cosmos is a work of art—the creation of the first dragons and gods. That creative work included harmonies that continue to resound through existence today, a power known as the Song of Creation. The bards of the College of Creation draw on that primeval song through dance, music, and poetry, and their teachers share this lesson: “Before the sun and the moon, there was the Song, and its music awoke the first dawn. Its melodies so delighted the stones and trees that some of them gained a voice of their own. And now they sing too. Learn the Song, students, and you too can teach the mountains to sing and dance.”

Dwarves and gnomes often encourage their bards to become students of the Song of Creation. And among dragonborn, the Song of Creation is revered, for legends portray Bahamut and Tiamat—the greatest of dragons—as two of the song’s first singers.        

Level 3: Mote of Potential

Whenever you give a creature a Bardic Inspiration die, you can utter a note from the Song of Creation to create a Tiny mote of potential, which orbits within 5 feet of that creature. The mote is intangible and invulnerable, and it lasts until the Bardic Inspiration die is lost. The mote looks like a musical note, a star, a flower, or another symbol of art or life that you choose.

When the creature uses the Bardic Inspiration die, the mote provides an additional effect based on whether the die benefits an ability check, an attack roll, or a saving throw, as detailed below:

Ability Check. When the creature rolls the Bardic Inspiration die to add it to an ability check, the creature can roll the Bardic Inspiration die again and choose which roll to use, as the mote pops and emits colorful, harmless sparks for a moment.

Attack Roll. Immediately after the creature rolls the Bardic Inspiration die to add it to an attack roll against a target, the mote thunderously shatters. The target and each creature of your choice that you can see within 5 feet of it must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC or take Thunder damage equal to the number rolled on the Bardic Inspiration die.

Saving Throw. Immediately after the creature rolls the Bardic Inspiration die and adds it to a saving throw, the mote vanishes with the sound of soft music, causing the creature to gain Temporary Hit Points equal to the number rolled on the Bardic Inspiration die plus your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1 Temporary Hit Point).

Level 3: Performance of Creation

As a Magic action, you can channel the magic of the Song of Creation to create one nonmagical item of your choice in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of you. The item must appear on a surface or in a liquid that can support it. The gp value of the item can’t be more than 20 times your bard level, and the item must be Medium or smaller. The item glimmers softly, and a creature can faintly hear music when touching it. The created item disappears after a number of hours equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1 hour). For examples of items you can create, see the equipment chapter of the Player’s Handbook.

Once you create an item with this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend a spell slot of level 2 or higher to use this feature again. You can have only one item created by this feature at a time; if you take this action and already have an item from this feature, the first one immediately vanishes.

The size of the item you can create with this feature increases by one size category when you reach level 6 (Large) and level 14 (Huge).

Level 6: Animating Performance

As a Magic action, you can animate one Large or smaller nonmagical item within 30 feet of you that isn’t being worn or carried. The animated item uses the Dancing Item stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB). The item is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands. It lives for 1 hour, until it is reduced to 0 Hit Points, or until you die.

In combat, the item shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can Move and use its Reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a Bonus Action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you have the Incapacitated condition, the item can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.

When you use your Bardic Inspiration feature, you can command the item as part of the same Bonus Action you use for Bardic Inspiration. Once you animate an item with this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend a spell slot of level 3 or higher to restore your use of it (no action required). You can have only one item animated by this feature at a time; if you use this action and already have a dancing item from this feature, the first one immediately becomes inanimate.

Level 14: Creative Crescendo

When you use your Performance of Creation feature, you can create more than one item at once. The number of items equals your Charisma modifier (minimum of two items). If you create an item that would exceed that number, you choose which of the previously created items disappears. Only one of these items can be of the maximum size you can create; the rest must be Small or Tiny.

You are no longer limited by gp value when creating items with Performance of Creation.

Update log

• Language changes.
• The Dancing Item’s Force Empowered Slam adds your Charisma modifier to the damage, instead of your Proficiency Bonus.

College of Eloquence

Updated by Spaghetti0
Command Mastery over the Spoken Word

Adherents of the College of Eloquence master the art of oratory. Persuasion is regarded as a high art, and a well-reasoned, well-spoken argument often proves more persuasive than facts. These bards wield a blend of logic and theatrical wordplay, winning over skeptics and detractors with logical arguments and plucking at heartstrings to appeal to the emotions of audiences.

Level 3: Silver Tongue

You are a master at saying the right thing at the right time. When you make a Charisma (Persuasion) or Charisma (Deception) check, you can treat a d20 roll of 7 or lower as an 8.

Level 3: Unsettling Words

You can spin words laced with magic that unsettle a creature and cause it to doubt itself. As a Bonus Action, you can expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration and choose one creature you can see within 60 feet of you. Roll the Bardic Inspiration die. The creature must subtract the number rolled from the next saving throw it makes before the start of your next turn.

Level 6: Unfailing Inspiration

Your inspiring words are so persuasive that others feel driven to succeed. When a creature adds one of your Bardic Inspiration dice to a D20 Test and the roll fails, the creature can keep the Bardic Inspiration die.

Level 6: Universal Speech

You have gained the ability to make your speech intelligible to any creature. As a Magic action, choose one or more creatures within 60 feet of you, up to a number equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). The chosen creatures can magically understand you, regardless of the language you speak, for 1 hour.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend a spell slot of level 1 or higher to restore its use (no action required).

Level 14: Infectious Inspiration

When you successfully inspire someone, the power of your eloquence can now spread to someone else. When a creature within 60 feet of you adds one of your Bardic Inspiration dice to a D20 Test and the roll succeeds, you can take a Reaction to encourage a different creature (other than yourself) that can hear you within 60 feet of you, giving it a Bardic Inspiration die without expending any of your Bardic Inspiration uses.

You can use this Reaction a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Update log

• Language changes.
• The minimum number you can roll with Silver Tongue has been reduced from 10 to 8

College of Spirits

Updated by Spaghetti0
Consult Spirits for Stories and Guidance

Bards of the College of Spirits seek tales with inherent power—be they legends, histories, or fictions— and bring their subjects to life. Using occult trappings, these Bards conjure spiritual embodiments of powerful forces to change the world once more. Such spirits are capricious, though, and what a Bard summons isn’t always entirely under their control.

Level 3: Spirit Medium

You employ tools that aid you in channeling spirits, be they historical figures or fictional archetypes.

        Spiritual Focus. You can use the following objects as a spellcasting focus for your Bard spells: a candle, crystal ball, skull, spirit board, or tarokka deck.

        Guiding Whispers. You can reach out to spirits to guide you and others. You learn the Guidance cantrip, which doesn’t count against the number of Bard cantrips you know. When you cast it while holding your Spiritual Focus, it has a range of 60 feet.

Level 3: Tales from Beyond

You reach out to spirits who tell their tales through you. While you are holding your Spiritual Focus, you can use a Bonus Action to expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration and roll on the Spirit Tales table using your Bardic Inspiration die to determine the tale the spirits direct you to tell. You retain the tale in mind until you bestow the tale’s effect or you finish a short or long rest.

You can use a Magic action to choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of you (this can be you) to be the target of the tale’s effect. Once you do so, you can’t bestow the tale’s effect again until you roll it again.

You can retain only one of these tales in mind at a time, and rolling on the Spirit Tales table immediately ends the effect of the previous tale. If the tale requires a saving throw, the DC equals your spell save DC.

Level 6: Empowered Spiritual Focus

When you cast a Bard spell that deals damage or restores Hit Points while you are holding your Spiritual Focus, roll a d6, and you gain a bonus to one damage or healing roll of the spell equal to the number rolled.

Level 6: Spirit Session

Spirits provide you with supernatural insights. You can conduct an hour-long ritual channeling spirits (which can be done during a Short or Long Rest) using your Spiritual Focus.

Ritual Participants. You can conduct the ritual with a number of willing creatures equal to half your Bard level (rounded down, maximum 9, including yourself).

Spell Knowledge. At the end of the ritual, you temporarily learn one spell of your choice from any class. The spell you choose must be of a level equal to the number of creatures that conducted the ritual or less, the spell must be of a level you can cast, and it must be in the school of Divination or Necromancy. You always have the spell prepared until you use this feature again.

Once per Long Rest. Once you perform the ritual, you can’t do so again until you start a Long Rest.

Level 14: Mystical Connection

You now have the ability to nudge the spirits of Tales from Beyond toward certain tales. Whenever you roll on the Spirit Tales table, you can roll the die twice and choose which of the two effects to bestow. If you roll the same number on both dice, you can ignore the number and choose any effect on the table.

Update log

• Language changes.
• The range boost for the Guidance spell requires you to use the Spiritual Focus as a spellcasting focus.
• Guiding Whispers and Spiritual Focus have been combined into a single feature, and the part of Spiritual Guidance which was gained at level 6 has been moved into its own feature.
• Stunned was added as a condition that Tale of the Angel can cure.
• The number of participants for the Spirit Session has been changed from your Proficiency Bonus to half your Bard level. Also, the spell is now prepared until you use the feature again, not until your next Long Rest.

College of Swords

Updated by Spaghetti0
Turn Combat Mastery into a Performance

Bards of the College of Swords are called blades, and they entertain through daring feats of weapon prowess. Blades perform stunts such as sword swallowing, knife throwing and juggling, and mock combats. Though they use their weapons to entertain, they are also highly trained and skilled warriors in their own right.

Their talent with weapons inspires many blades to lead double lives. One blade might use a circus troupe as cover for nefarious deeds such as assassination, robbery, and blackmail. Other blades strike at the wicked, bringing justice to bear against the cruel and powerful. Most troupes are happy to accept a blade’s talent for the excitement it adds to a performance, but few entertainers fully trust a blade in their ranks.

Blades who abandon their lives as entertainers have often run into trouble that makes maintaining their secret activities impossible. A blade caught stealing or engaging in vigilante justice is too great a liability for most troupes. With their weapon skills and magic, these blades either take up work as enforcers for thieves’ guilds or strike out on their own as adventurers.

Level 3: Martial Training

Your training in martial combat has granted you Medium Armor Training and proficiency with the Scimitar, Shortsword and the Rapier. In addition, if you have proficiency with a Simple or Martial Melee Weapon, you can use it as a spellcasting focus for your Bard spells.

Level 3: Fighting Style

You can select one of the Fighting Style feats of your choice from the following options: Dueling, Interception or Two-Weapon Fighting. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can exchange your selection for another option.

Level 3: Blade Flourish

Whenever you take the Attack action on your turn, your walking speed increases by 10 feet until the end of the turn, and if a weapon attack that you make as part of this action hits a creature, you can use one of the following Blade Flourish options of your choice. You can use only one Blade Flourish option per turn.

Defensive Flourish. You can expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration to cause the weapon to deal extra damage to the target you hit. The damage equals the number you roll on the Bardic Inspiration die. You also add the number rolled to your AC until the start of your next turn.

Slashing Flourish. You can expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration to cause the weapon to deal extra damage to the target you hit and to any number of other creatures of your choice that you can see within 5 feet of you. The damage equals the number you roll on the Bardic Inspiration die.

Mobile Flourish. You can expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration to cause the weapon to deal extra damage to the target you hit. The damage equals the number you roll on the Bardic Inspiration die. You can also push the target up to a number of feet equal to three times the number you roll on that die, rounded to the nearest 5 foot increment. You can then immediately take a Reaction to move up to your Speed to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the target.

Level 6: Extra Attack

You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

        In addition, whenever you finish a Long Rest you can select one weapon with which you have proficiency. Alternatively, you can select two weapons, provided they both have the Light property. You can use the Mastery Property of the selected weapon(s) until you next finish a Long Rest.

Level 14: Master’s Flourish

Whenever you use a Blade Flourish option, you can roll a d6 and use it instead of expending a Bardic Inspiration die.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Martial Training now also provides proficiency in Shortswords.
• Interception is added as a Fighting Style option, and the fighting style can be changed on a level up.  
• Slashing Flourish now deals the extra damage to all creatures of your choice within 5 feet of you, instead of just one.
• The distance the target is pushed by Mobile Flourish has been changed from 5 + the number rolled to 3 times the number rolled (rounded to the nearest 5 foot increment).
• Bladesinger Extra Attack was NOT granted at level 6, to add a bit of differentiation between College of Swords and College of Valor. Instead, College of Swords gets one Weapon Mastery at level 6.

College of Whispers

Updated by Spaghetti0
Inspire Paranoia and Use Social Sabotage

Most folk are happy to welcome a bard into their midst. Bards of the College of Whispers use this to their advantage. They appear to be like other bards, sharing news, singing songs, and telling tales to the audiences they gather. In truth, the College of Whispers teaches its students that they are wolves among sheep. These bards use their knowledge and magic to uncover secrets and turn them against others through extortion and threats.

Many other Bards hate the College of Whispers, viewing it as a parasite that uses a bard’s reputation to acquire wealth and power. For this reason, members of this college rarely reveal their true nature. They typically claim to follow some other college, or they keep their actual calling secret in order to infiltrate and exploit royal courts and other settings of power.

Level 3: Psychic Blades

When you hit a creature with an attack roll or when a creature fails a saving throw against one of your Bard spells, you can expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration to deal extra Psychic damage to that target. The damage equals two rolls of the Bardic Inspiration die. You can do so only once per round on your turn.

        The Psychic damage increases to 3 rolls of your Bardic Inspiration die when you reach level 6 in this class, and to 4 rolls when you reach level 14.

Level 3: Words of Terror

You have learned to infuse innocent-seeming words with an insidious magic that can inspire terror. As a Magic action, you can attempt to seed paranoia into the mind of a creature within 5 feet. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC or have the Frightened condition for 1 hour. You can choose for the source of the fear to be yourself or another creature of your choice. The condition ends early if you or your allies attack it, damage it, or force it to make a saving throw. If the target succeeds on its saving throw, it has no hint that you tried to frighten it.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Level 6: Mantle of Whispers

You gain the ability to adopt a humanoid’s persona. When a creature dies within 30 feet of you, you can take a Reaction to magically capture its shadow. The creature must be a Humanoid, or it must have the general appearance and size of a Humanoid (for example, a Night Hag). You retain this shadow until you use it or you finish a Long Rest.

You can use the shadow as a Magic action. When you do so, it vanishes, magically transforming into a disguise that appears on you. You now look like the dead person, but healthy and alive. This disguise lasts for 1 hour or until you dismiss it as a Bonus Action.

While you’re in the disguise, you gain access to all information that the creature would freely share with a casual acquaintance. Such information includes general details on its background and personal life, but doesn’t include secrets. The information is enough that you can pass yourself off as the person by drawing on its memories.

Another creature can see through this disguise by succeeding on a Wisdom (Insight) check against your spell save DC, but it suffers a penalty equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum penalty of -1).

Once you capture a shadow with this feature, you can’t capture another one with it until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Level 14: Shadow Lore

You gain the ability to weave dark magic into your words and tap into a creature’s deepest fears. As a Magic action, you can whisper a phrase that only one creature of your choice within 30 feet of you can hear. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. It automatically succeeds if it doesn’t share a language with you or if it can’t hear you. On a successful saving throw, your whisper sounds like unintelligible mumbling and has no effect.

On a failed saving throw, the target has the Charmed condition for the next 8 hours or until you or your allies attack it, damage it, or force it to make a saving throw. It interprets the whispers as a description of its most mortifying secret. You gain no knowledge of this secret, but the target is convinced you know it.

The Charmed creature obeys your commands for fear that you will reveal its secret. It won’t risk its life for you or fight for you, unless it was already inclined to do so. It grants you favors and gifts it would offer to a close friend. When the effect ends, the creature has no understanding of why it held you in such fear.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Psychic Blades now works on any kind of attack, not just weapon attacks, and can also be used when a creature fails a saving throw against one of your bard spells. The damage has been changed to a number of rolls of your Bardic Inspiration dice, which scale with your level (overall damage buff).
• Words of Terror received several Buffs

• The target no longer needs to be humanoid
• You now use the feature as an action.
• The condition no longer ends if you damage its allies.

• Mantle of Whispers no longer requires the target to be Humanoid, but they must have a general Humanoid size and appearance. The check a creature can make to see through the illusion is now against your spell save DC, instead of being a contested check.

Arcana Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Channel Magic from its Divine Origin

Magic is an energy that suffuses the multiverse and that fuels both destruction and creation. Gods of the Arcana domain know the secrets and potential of magic intimately. For some of these gods, magical knowledge is a great responsibility that comes with a special understanding of the nature of reality. Other gods of Arcana see magic as pure power, to be used as its wielder sees fit.

The gods of this domain are often associated with knowledge, as learning and arcane power tend to go hand-in-hand. In the Realms, deities of this domain include Azuth and Mystra, as well as Corellon Larethian of the elven pantheon. In other worlds, this domain includes Hecate, Math Mathonwy, and Isis; the triple moon gods of Solinari, Lunitari, and Nuitari of Krynn; and Boccob, Vecna, and Wee Jas of Greyhawk.

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Arcana Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Arcana Domain Spells

Level 3: Arcane Initiate

You have proficiency in the Arcana skill and you learn two cantrips of your choice from the Wizard spell list, which count as Cleric cantrips for you.

Level 3: Collective Knowledge

You can use your Channel Divinity to bestow divine knowledge on yourself and your allies. As a Magic action, you present your holy symbol to emanate a divine source of truth in a 15 foot Emanation for 1 minute. You and all allies that are within the Emanation have Advantage on Charisma, Intelligence, and Wisdom saving throws and gain a +1 bonus to their Armor Class.

Level 6: Spell Breaker

When you restore Hit Points to an ally with a spell of level 1 or higher, you can also end one spell of your choice on that creature. The level of the spell you end must be equal to or lower than the level of the spell slot you use to cast the healing spell.

Level 17: Arcane Mastery

You choose four spells from the Wizard spell list, one from each of the following levels: 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th. You add them to your list of Domain spells. Like your other Domain spells, they are always prepared and count as Cleric spells for you.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 1 and 2 features have moved to level 3.
• New level 3 feature for Channel Divinity called Collective Knowledge giving you and allies within 15 feet advantage on mental saves and a +1 to AC.

Death Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Reap the Souls of the Unworthy Living

The Death domain is concerned with the forces that cause death, as well as the negative energy that gives rise to undead creatures. Deities such as Chemosh, Myrkul, and Wee Jas are patrons of necromancers, death knights, liches, mummy lords, and vampires. Gods of the Death domain also embody murder (Anubis, Bhaal, and Pyremius), pain (Iuz or Loviatar), disease or poison (Incabulos, Talona, or Morgion), and the underworld (Hades and Hel).

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Death Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Death Domain Spells

Level 3: Reaper

You learn one Necromancy cantrip of your choice from any spell list. When you cast a Necromancy cantrip that normally targets only one creature, the spell can instead target two creatures within range and within 15 feet of each other.

Level 3: Hands of Death

You can use Channel Divinity to destroy another creature's life force. When you hit a creature with an attack, you can use Channel Divinity to deal extra necrotic damage to the target. The damage equals 5 + your cleric level.

Level 6: Inescapable Destruction

Your ability to channel negative energy becomes more potent. Necrotic damage dealt by your cleric spells and Channel Divinity options ignores Resistance to Necrotic damage.

Level 17: Improved Reaper

When you cast a Necromancy spell that is level 5 or lower that targets only one creature, the spell can instead target two creatures within range and within 15 feet of each other. If the spell consumes its material components, you must provide them for both targets.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 1 and 2 features have moved to level 3.
• Increased range between targets of Reaper and Improved Reaper to 15 feet.
• Reworked Touch of Death to Hands of Death, which works with all attack rolls you make and reduced the damage to compensate for usability and amount of uses per rest.

Forge Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Create your Divine Masterwork

The gods of the forge are patrons of artisans who work with metal, from a humble blacksmith who keeps a village in horseshoes and plow blades to the mighty elf artisan whose diamond-tipped arrows of mithral have felled demon lords. The gods of the forge teach that, with patience and hard work, even the most intractable metal can be transformed from a lump of ore to a beautifully wrought object. Clerics of these deities search for objects lost to the forces of darkness, liberate mines overrun by orcs, and uncover rare and wondrous materials necessary to create potent magic items. Followers of these gods take great pride in their work, and they are willing to craft and use heavy armor and powerful weapons to protect them. Deities of this domain include Gond, Reorx, Onatar, Moradin, Hephaestus, and Goibhniu.

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Forge Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Forge Domain Spells

Level 3: Blessing of the Forge

You gain the ability to imbue magic into a weapon or armor.

        Bonus Proficiency. You gain a set of Smith’s Tools and have proficiency with it.

        Blessed Smithing. At the end of a Long Rest, you can touch one nonmagical object that is a suit of armor or a weapon. Until the end of your next Long Rest or until you die, the object becomes a magical, granting a +1 bonus to AC if it's armor or a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls if it's a weapon. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest.

Level 3: Artisan's Blessing

You can use your Channel Divinity to create simple items. You conduct an hour-long ritual that crafts a nonmagical item that must include some metal: a weapon, a suit of armor, ten pieces of ammunition, a set of tools, or another metal object. The creation is completed at the end of the hour, coalescing in an unoccupied space of your choice on a surface within 5 feet of you. The thing you create can be something that is worth no more than 100 gp. As part of this ritual, you must lay out metal, which can include coins, with a value equal to the creation. The metal irretrievably coalesces and transforms into the creation at the ritual's end, magically forming even nonmetal parts of the creation. The ritual can create a duplicate of a nonmagical item that contains metal, such as a key, if you possess the original during the ritual.

Level 6: Soul of the Forge

Your mastery of the forge grants you special abilities. You have Resistance to Fire damage and while wearing metal armor, you have a +1 bonus to your Armor Class.

Level 17: Saint of Forge and Fire

Your blessed affinity with fire and metal becomes more powerful. You have Immunity to Fire damage and while wearing metal armor, you have Resistance to Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing damage.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 1 and 2 features moved to level 3
• Akin to the Assassin, along with the Smith’s Tools proficiency, you now also just get a set of the tools.
• Removed heavy armor restriction of Soul of the Forge and Sant of Forge and Fire, now works as long as the armor is made of metal.

Grave Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal

Ease the Dying to Their Final Rest

Gods of the grave watch over the line between life and death. To these deities, death and the afterlife are a foundational part of the multiverse’s workings. To resist death, or to desecrate the dead’s rest, is an abomination. Deities of the grave include Kelemvor, Wee Jas, the ancestral spirits of the Undying Court, Hades, Anubis, and Osiris. These deities teach their followers to respect the dead and pay them due homage. Followers of these deities seek to put restless spirits to rest, destroy the undead wherever they find them, and ease the suffering of dying creatures. Their magic also allows them to stave off a creature’s death, though they refuse to use such magic to extend a creature’s lifespan beyond its mortal limits.

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Grave Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Grave Domain Spells

Level 3: Circle of Mortality

You gain the ability to manipulate the line between life and death.

Solace. When you would normally roll one or more dice to restore hit points with a spell to a creature at 0 Hit Points, you instead use the highest number possible for each die.

Preservation. You learn the Spare the Dying cantrip, which doesn't count against the number of cleric cantrips you know and you can take a Bonus Action to cast it. When you cast the spell, you can choose to restore the creature to a number of Hit Points equal to half your Cleric level. You can cast the spell in this way a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once) and you regain all expended uses whenever you finish a Long Rest.

Level 3: Path to the Grave

You can use your Channel Divinity to mark another creature’s life force for termination. As a Magic action, you choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of you, cursing it until the end of your next turn. The next time you or an ally hits the cursed creature with an attack, the creature has Vulnerability to all of that attack's damage, and then the curse ends.

Level 6: Sentinel at Death’s Door

You gain the ability to impede death’s progress. As a Reaction when you or an ally that you can see within 30 feet of you suffers a Critical Hit, you can turn that attack into a normal hit. Any effects triggered by a Critical Hit are canceled. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1). You regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 17: Keeper of Souls

You can seize a trace of vitality from a parting soul and use it to heal the living. When a creature you can see dies within 30 feet of you, you or one ally of your choice that is within 30 feet of you regains hit points equal to the creature’s number of Hit Dice. You can use this feature only if you don’t have the Incapacitated condition. Once you use it, you can't do so again until the start of your next turn.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 1 and 2 features moved to level 3
• Updated the Preservation part of Circle of Mortality to enjoy a bit of an upgrade, since the spell gained increased range in the new PHB
• Removed Eyes of the Grave due to the amount of features gained at level 3
• Changed language on Keeper of Souls so that it now works on any creature that dies, not just enemies.

Knowledge Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal

Uncover and Record Ancient Lore

The gods of knowledge – including Oghma, Boccob, Gilean, Aureon, and Thoth – value learning and understanding above all. Some teach that knowledge is to be gathered and shared in libraries and universities, or promote the practical knowledge of craft and invention. Some deities hoard knowledge and keep its secrets to themselves. And some promise their followers that they will gain tremendous power if they unlock the secrets of the multiverse. Followers of these gods study esoteric lore, collect old tomes, delve into the secret places of the earth, and learn all they can. Some gods of knowledge promote the practical knowledge of craft and invention, including smith deities like Gond, Reorx, Onatar, Moradin, Hephaestus, and Goibhniu.

In Amonkhet, knowledge is the second virtue of society. Kefnet’s task is to pass on this teaching of the God-Pharaoh and elucidate its meaning. He teaches that the afterlife will be inhabited only by those who have proved by their wits that they are worthy of dwelling in the glorious presence of the God-Pharaoh. He trains acolytes and initiates to push their limits and challenge their mental capacity with spells of ever-greater power.

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Knowledge Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Knowledge Domain Spells

Level 3: Blessings of Knowledge

You learn two languages of your choice and have Expertise in two of the following skills: Arcana, History, Nature, or Religion.

Level 3: Knowledge of the Ages

You can use your Channel Divinity to tap into a divine well of knowledge. As a Magic action, you choose one skill or tool. For 10 minutes, you have proficiency with the chosen skill or tool.

Level 6: Read Thoughts

You can use your Channel Divinity to read a creature's thoughts. You can then use your access to the creature's mind to command it. As a Magic action, choose a creature that you can see within 60 feet of you. It must make a Wisdom save. If the creature fails its save, you can read its surface thoughts (those foremost in its mind, reflecting its current emotions and what it is actively thinking about) when it is within 60 feet of you. This effect lasts for 1 minute. During that time, you can use your action to end this effect and cast the Suggestion spell on the creature without expending a spell slot. The target automatically fails its save against the spell. If the creature succeeds on the initial saving throw, you can't use this feature on it again until you finish a Long Rest.

Level 17: Visions of the Past

You can call up visions of the past that relate to an object you hold or your immediate surroundings. You spend at least 1 minute in meditation and prayer, then receive dreamlike, shadowy glimpses of recent events. You can meditate in this way for a number of minutes equal to your Wisdom score and must maintain Concentration during that time, as if you were casting a spell. Choose one of the following effects:

Object Reading. Holding an object as you meditate, you can see visions of the object's previous owner. After meditating for 1 minute, you learn how the owner acquired and lost the object, as well as the most recent significant event involving the object and that owner. If the object was owned by another creature in the recent past (within a number of days equal to your Wisdom score), you can spend 1 additional minute for each owner to learn the same information about that creature.

Area Reading. As you meditate, you see visions of recent events in your immediate vicinity (a room, street, tunnel, clearing, or the like, up to a 50-foot Cube), going back a number of days equal to your Wisdom score. For each minute you meditate, you learn about one significant event, beginning with the most recent. Significant events typically involve powerful emotions, such as battles and betrayals, marriages and murders, births and funerals. However, they might also include more mundane events that are nevertheless important in your current situation.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Nature Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal & Spaghetti0

Protect the Natural World and Harness its Power

Gods of nature are as varied as the natural world itself; from inscrutable gods of the deep forests (such as Silvanus, Obad-Hai, Chislev, Balinor, and Pan) to friendly deities associated with particular springs and groves (such as Eldath). Druids revere nature as a whole and might serve one of these deities, practicing mysterious rites and reciting all-but-forgotten prayers in their own secret tongue. But many of these gods have clerics as well, champions who take a more active role in advancing the interests of a particular nature god. These clerics might hunt the evil monstrosities that despoil the woodlands, bless the harvest of the faithful, or wither the crops of those who anger their gods.

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Nature Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Nature Domain Spells

Level 3: Acolyte of Nature

You are attuned to the magic of both divine and nature.

        Nature Magic. You learn one cantrip of your choice from the Druid spell list. This cantrip counts as a Cleric cantrip for you, but it doesn’t count against the number of cleric cantrips you know. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can exchange this cantrip for a different Druid cantrip of your choice.

Natural Talent. You have proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Animal Handling, Nature, or Survival.

Level 3: Control Plantlife

You can call on natural plantlife to serve your needs. As a Magic action, you can expend a use of your Channel Divinity and select one non-magical, inanimate plant within 30 feet of you, producing one of the following effects of your choice, which lasts for 1 minute, until you use this feature again, or until you have the Incapacitated condition:

        Difficult Terrain. The ground in a 15 foot Emanation around the plant becomes Difficult Terrain.

        Grasping Limbs. Whenever a creature enters a space within 5 feet of the plant for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must succeed on a Strength or Dexterity saving throw (its choice) or be Grappled by the plant (escape DC equals your spell save DC). While Grappled, the creature also has the Restrained condition.

Level 6: Dampen Elements

When you or a creature within 30 feet of you takes Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Thunder damage, you can use your Reaction to grant Resistance to the creature against that instance of the damage.

Level 17: Master of Nature

You can call on nature to aid you in battle. When you start casting Summon Beast with a spell slot of level 5 or lower, you can alter it for this casting, changing the spell in the following ways:

        No Concentration. The spell does not require you to Concentrate on it. You can dismiss the spell as a Bonus Action.

Two Beasts. The spell summons two Bestial Spirits instead of one. The two beasts do not need to be of the same type and you can command them independently. If you are Incapacitated, the Beasts take their turns as normal and act to defend you.

Elemental Damage. When the Beasts hit with an attack, you can change the damage type to Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning or Thunder (you choose when they deal damage).

Once you cast the spell in this way, you cannot do so again until you finish a Long Rest.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 1 and 2 features moved to level 3
• The cantrip of Acolyte of Nature can be replaced on a level up.
• Barkskin was replaced with Summon Beast and Wind Wall was replaced with Conjure Animals
• Charm Animals and Plants was somewhat redundant with Animal Friendship, so was reworked into a new feature that allows you to control existing plantlife.
• Beasts and Plants are extremely rare in tier 4, so Master of Nature was reworked into a new feature, which lets you cast Summon Beast in a special way without Concentration once per day.

Order Domain

Updated by Spaghetti0
Use Law to Subjugate and Delegate

The Order Domain represents discipline, as well as devotion to the laws that govern a society, an institution, or a philosophy. Clerics of Order meditate on logic and justice as they serve their gods, examples of which appear in the Order Deities table.

Clerics of Order believe that well-crafted laws establish legitimate hierarchies, and those selected by law to lead must be obeyed. Those who obey must do so to the best of their ability, and if those who lead fail to protect the law, they must be replaced. In this manner, law weaves a web of obligations that create order and security in a chaotic multiverse.

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Order Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Order Domain Spells

Level 3: Voice of Authority

You can invoke the power of law to embolden an ally to attack. If you cast a spell of level 1 or higher and target an ally with the spell, that ally can use their Reaction immediately after the spell to make one weapon attack against a creature of your choice that you can see. If the spell targets more than one ally, you choose the ally who can make the attack.

Level 3: Order’s Demand

You can use your Channel Divinity to exert an intimidating presence over others. As a Magic action, you present your holy symbol, and each creature of your choice that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have the Charmed condition until the end of your next turn or until the charmed creature takes any damage. You can also cause any of the Charmed creatures to drop what they are holding when they fail the saving throw.

Level 6: Embodiment of the Law

You have become remarkably adept at channeling magical energy to compel others.

If you cast a spell of the Enchantment school of level 1 or higher, you can change the spell’s casting time to a Bonus Action for this casting, provided the spell’s casting time is normally an action.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 17: Order’s Wrath

Enemies you designate for destruction wilt under the combined efforts of you and your allies. When you use your Voice of Authority feature to allow an ally to make an attack, you empower that attack with the power of law. If the attack hits, it deals an extra 2d10 Psychic damage.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 1 and 2 features moved to level 3
• Removed Bonus Proficiencies
• Voice of Authority and Embodiment of the Law no longer require the spell to be cast with a spell slot, but they still must use a level 1+ spell.
• Order’s Wrath is no longer tied to Divine Strike, but rather to the attack of Voice of Authority hitting. In addition, the damage has been boosted from 2d8 to 2d10.

Peace Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Foster Friendliness and Form Bonds

The balm of peace thrives at the heart of healthy communities, between friendly nations, and in the souls of the kindhearted. The gods of peace inspire people of all sorts to resolve conflict and to stand up against those forces that try to prevent peace from flourishing. See the Peace Deities table for a list of some of the gods associated with this domain.

Clerics of the Peace Domain preside over the signing of treaties, and they are often asked to arbitrate in disputes. These clerics' blessings draw people together and help them shoulder one another's burdens, and the clerics' magic aids those who are driven to fight for the way of peace.

Peace Deities

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Peace Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Peace Domain Spells

Level 3: Emboldening Bond

As a Magic action, you can forge an empowering bond among people who are at peace with one another. You choose 2 willing creatures within 30 feet of you (this can include yourself). You create a magical bond among them for 10 minutes or until you use this feature again. While a bonded creature is within 30 feet of another bonded creature and fails a D20 Test, it can use its Reaction to roll a d4 and add the number rolled to the result. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest, unless you expend a spell slot of level 1 or higher to use it again. The number of creatures you can choose for the bond increases by 1 at level 6 (3 creatures) and at level 17 (4 creatures).

Level 3: Balm of Peace

You can use your Channel Divinity to make your very presence a soothing balm. As a Magic action, you can move up to your speed, without provoking Opportunity Attacks, and when you move within 5 feet of any other creature during this action, you can restore a number of Hit Points to that creature equal to your 2d6 plus your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1 hit point). A creature can receive this healing only once whenever you take this action.

Level 6: Protective Bond

The bond you forge between people helps them protect each other. When a creature affected by your Emboldening Bond feature is about to take damage, a bonded creature within 30 feet can use its Reaction to divide the damage equally among all bonded creatures within 30 feet (rounded up) or take all the damage instead. Once the creatures use this effect, they cannot do so again until the start of your next turn.

Level 17: Expansive Bond

The benefits of your Emboldening Bond and Protective Bond features now work when the creatures are within 60 feet of each other. Moreover, when a creature uses Protective Bond to take someone else's damage, the creature has Resistance to that damage.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 1 and 2 features have moved to level 3.
• Number of creatures for Emboldening Bond is now 2 and scales with level.
• Number of uses of Emboldening Bond reduced to 1 per short rest, with the option to use a level 1 spell slot to use it again.
• Emboldening bond now lets creatures use their Reaction when they fail a D20 Test to roll a d4 to possibly turn it into a success.
• Protective bond’s teleport is removed and replaced by a bond-wide Reaction once per round that allows the bonded creatures to divide or redirect the damage.
• Removed Implement of Peace due to the amount of features gained at 3rd level.

Tempest Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Smite Foes with the Wrath of the Sky

Gods whose portfolios include the Tempest domain – including Talos, Umberlee, Kord, Zeboim, the Devourer, Zeus, and Thor – govern storms, sea, and, sky. They include gods of lightning and thunder, gods of earthquakes, some fire gods, and certain gods of violence, physical strength, and courage. In some pantheons, a god of this domain rules over other deities and is known for swift justice delivered by thunderbolts. In the pantheons of seafaring people, gods of this domain are ocean deities and the patrons of sailors. Tempest gods send their clerics to inspire fear in the common folk, either to keep those folk on the path of righteousness or to encourage them to offer sacrifices of propitiation to ward off divine wrath.

Level 3: Domain Spells

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Tempest Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Tempest Domain Spells

Level 3: Wrath of the Storm

You can thunderously rebuke attackers. When a creature within 5 feet of you that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your Reaction to cause the creature to make a Dexterity save. The creature takes Lightning or Thunder (your choice) damage equal to 1d8 plus your Cleric level on a failed saving throw, and half as much damage on a successful one. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of 1). You regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 3: Destructive Wrath

You can use your Channel Divinity to wield the power of the storm with unchecked ferocity. When you roll Lightning or Thunder damage, you can use your Channel Divinity to deal maximum damage, instead of rolling.

When you deal Lightning or Thunder damage to a Large or smaller creature, you can also push it up to 10 feet away from you.

Twilight Domain

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Defend Allies with the Soothing Twilight

The twilit transition from light into darkness often brings calm and even joy, as the day's labors end and the hours of rest begin. The darkness can also bring terrors, but the gods of twilight guard against the horrors of the night.

Clerics who serve these deities-examples of which appear on the Twilight Deities table-bring comfort to those who seek rest and protect them by venturing into the encroaching darkness to ensure that the dark is a comfort, not a terror.

Twilight Deities

Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Twilight Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Twilight Domain Spells

You have Darkvision with a range of 120 feet and as a Magic action, you can share it with willing creatures you can see within 10 feet of you, up to a number of creatures equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1), which lasts for 1 hour. Once you share it, you can't do so again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend a spell slot of any level to share it again.

Level 3: Twilight Sanctuary

You can use your Channel Divinity to refresh your allies with soothing twilight. As a Bonus Action, you present your holy symbol, and a 30-foot Emanation of dim light appears around you. It lasts for 1 minute or until you are incapacitated or die.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier and regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Circle of Dreams

Updated by Spaghetti0
Survive the Wilds with the Protection of the Fey Courts

Druids who are members of the Circle of Dreams hail from regions that have strong ties to the Feywild and its dreamlike realms. The Druids’ guardianship of the natural world makes for a natural alliance between them and good-aligned fey. These Druids seek to fill the world with dreamy wonder. Their magic mends wounds and brings joy to downcast hearts, and the realms they protect are gleaming, fruitful places, where dream and reality blur together and where the weary can find rest.

Level 3: Circle Spells

Your connection to this circle ensures that you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Druid level specified in the Circle of Dreams Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Circle of Dreams Spells

Level 3: Balm of the Summer Court

You have become imbued with the blessings of the Summer Court. As a Magic action, you can expend a use of your Wild Shape feature to bestow on yourself a font of energy that offers respite from injuries. When you do, you have a pool of fey energy represented by a number of d6s equal to half your Druid level (rounded up). These dice last until you finish a Long Rest, or until you take this action again.

As a Bonus Action, you can choose one creature you can see within 120 feet of you and spend any number of those dice. Roll the spent dice and add them together. The target regains a number of Hit Points equal to the total. The target also gains 1 Temporary Hit Point per die spent.

Level 6: Hearth of Moonlight and Shadow

You can invoke the shadowy power of the Gloaming Court to help guard your respite. You can cast the Leomund’s Tiny Hut spell without expending a spell slot. When you and your allies take a Short or Long Rest within the dome created by the spell, each creature that participated in the rest gains a number of Temporary Hit Points equal to half your Druid level plus your Wisdom modifier.

Level 10: Hidden Paths

You can use the hidden, magical pathways that some fey use to traverse space in the blink of an eye. As a Bonus Action on your turn, you can Teleport yourself or a willing creature you can see within 30 feet of you up to 60 feet to an unoccupied space you can see.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a Long Rest. You can restore a use of this feature by expending a spell slot of level 3 or higher (no action required).

Level 14: Walker in Dreams

The magic of the Feywild grants you the ability to travel mentally or physically through dreamlands. You can cast the following spells without expending a spell slot: Dream, Scrying or Teleportation Circle. Once you cast any of these spells without a spell slot, you cannot cast any of them in this way again until you finish a Long Rest.

        In addition, when you cast one of these spells while within the dome of the Tiny Hut created by your Hearth of Moonlight and Shadow feature, the spell is enhanced in the following way, depending on which spell was cast:

Dream. If the target of the spell is awake when you cast it, you can choose to immediately end the spell. When you do, the spell is not wasted.

Scrying. Your connection to the target is increased by one level, to a maximum of ‘Body part, lock of hair, bit of nail, or the like’. If you have no level of connection, it becomes ‘Likeness or Picture’.

Teleportation Circle. Whenever you finish a Long Rest in the dome created by your Hearth of Moonlight and Shadow feature, you can designate your current location to be an anchor point. The anchor point remains until you designate a new one, and you can use it as a destination for Teleportation Circle instead of a permanent circle. If you aren’t on the same Plane of Existence as the anchor point when you cast Teleportation Circle in this way, the spell fails but isn’t wasted.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 2 features have moved to level 3.
• Spell list added
• Balm of the Summer Court is now fuelled Wild Shape.
• Hearth of Moonlight and Shadow now directly makes use of the Tiny Hut spell, and provides Temporary Hit Points to creatures that take a rest inside.
• Teleporting an ally with Hidden Paths is now a Bonus Action, and uses the full 60 feet. The feature can be fuelled by a level 3 spell slot.
• Walker in Dreams now allows you to cast the spells once without expending a spell slot even if you aren’t inside the dome. If you cast the spell within the dome, you get a special benefit.

• Dream allows you to end, but not waste, the spell if the target is awake
• Scrying makes the target more likely to fail
• Teleportation circle can let you teleport to a designated place that you finished a Long Rest at some point in the past, rather than where you last finished a Long Rest.

Circle of the Shepherd

Updated by Spaghetti0, inspiration taken from Treantmonk
Call Nature Spirits to your Aid

Druids of the Circle of the Shepherd commune with the spirits of nature, especially the spirits of beasts and the fey, and call to those spirits for aid. These druids recognize that all living things play a role in the natural world, yet they focus on protecting animals and fey creatures that have difficulty defending themselves. Shepherds, as they are known, see such creatures as their charges. They ward off monsters that threaten them, rebuke hunters who kill more prey than necessary, and prevent civilization from encroaching on rare animal habitats and on sites sacred to the fey. Many of these Druids are happiest far from cities and towns, content to spend their days in the company of animals and the fey creatures of the wilds.

Members of this circle become adventurers to oppose forces that threaten their charges or to seek knowledge and power that will help them safeguard their charges better. Wherever these Druids go, the spirits of the wilderness are with them.

Level 3: Speech of the Woods

You gain the ability to converse with beasts and many fey.

Fey Speech. You learn to speak, read, and write Sylvan. If you already know Sylvan, you learn another language of your choice.

Beastial Speech. You can cast the Speak with Animals spell without expending a spell slot.

Level 3: Spirit Totem

You can call forth nature spirits to influence the world around you. As a Bonus Action, you can expend a use of your Wild Shape feature to magically summon an intangible spirit to a point you can see within 60 feet of you. The spirit creates an aura in a 30-foot radius around that point. It counts as neither a creature nor an object, though it has the spectral appearance of the creature it represents. As a Bonus Action, you can move the spirit up to 60 feet to a point you can see.

The spirit persists for 1 minute or until you have the Incapacitated condition. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

The effect of the spirit’s aura depends on the type of spirit you summon from the options below.

Bear Spirit. The bear spirit grants you and your allies its might and endurance. When a creature ends its turn in the aura, you can take a Reaction to grant it Temporary Hit Points equal to 5 plus your Druid level. In addition, you and your allies have Advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws while within the aura.

Hawk Spirit. The hawk spirit is a consummate hunter, aiding you and your allies with its keen sight. When a creature within the spirit’s aura makes an attack roll, you can take a Reaction to grant it Advantage on that attack roll, and any other attack it makes before the start of your next turn. In addition, you and your allies have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks while in the aura.

Unicorn Spirit. The unicorn spirit lends its protection to those nearby. When a creature in the aura recovers Hit Points, you can take a Reaction to increase the number of Hit Points regained by an amount equal to 5 plus your Druid level. In addition, you and your allies have Advantage on all ability checks made to detect creatures in the spirit’s aura.

Level 6: Mighty Summoner

Spirits that you summon are more resilient than normal. You always have the Summon Beast and Summon Fey spells prepared. In addition, when you cast either spell, or another spell that summons a single creature, the summoned creature gains the following benefits:

Increased Resiliency. The creature appears with more Hit Points than normal: 5 extra Hit Points per level of the spell that summoned it.

Magical Attacks. When the creature hits with an attack, you can choose for it to use its normal damage type or Force damage. You make this choice each time the creature hits with an attack.

Level 10: Guardian Spirit

Your Spirit Totem safeguards the Beasts and Fey that you call forth with your magic. If a creature summoned by your Summon Beast or Summon Fey spells ends its turn inside your Spirit Totem aura, it regains hit points equal to your Druid level.

Level 14: Faithful Summons

The nature spirits you commune with protect you when you are the most defenseless. If you are reduced to 0 Hit Points or have the Incapacitated condition against your will, you can immediately gain the benefits of Summon Beast as if you had cast it using a level 9 spell slot. The summoned Beast appears within 20 feet of you. If it receives no commands from you, it protects you from harm and attacks your foes. The spell lasts for 1 hour, requiring no Concentration, or until you dismiss it (no action required).

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 2 features have moved to level 3.
• Speech of the Woods now lets you learn a different language if you already know Sylvan
• Speech of the Woods lets you cast Speak with Animals at will, instead of giving you a special way to communicate with beasts.
• Each of the Spirit Totem options now work by you using your Reaction to give a buff to one creature. The feature is now fuelled by Wild Shape.
• Hawk no longer cares about whether the target of the attack is in the aura, only the attacker. It also applied advantage to all attacks the target makes for 1 round, not just the initial attack
• Unicorn no longer cares about who cast the healing spell.
• Mighty Summoner now grants the Summon Beast and Summon Fey spells, though the benefits can be used for any summoning spell. It grants extra hit points equal to 5 times the spell’s level, and the creatures can exchange their normal damage type for Force.
• Guardian Spirit specifically only works on Summon Beast and Summon Fey
• Faithful Summons now casts Summon Beast, rather than Conjure Animals

Circle of Spores

Updated by Spaghetti0
Embrace the Cycle of  Life and Death

Druids of the Circle of Spores find beauty in decay. They see within mold and other fungi the ability to transform lifeless material into abundant, albeit somewhat strange, life.

These druids believe that life and death are parts of a grand cycle, with one leading to the other and then back again. Death isn’t the end of life, but instead a change of state that sees life shift into a new form.

Druids of this circle have a complex relationship with the undead. Unlike most other Druids, they see nothing inherently wrong with undeath, which they consider to be a companion to life and death. But these Druids believe that the natural cycle is healthiest when each segment of it is vibrant and changing. Undead that seek to replace all life with undeath, or that try to avoid passing to a final rest, violate the cycle and must be thwarted.

Level 3: Circle Spells

Your connection to this circle ensures that you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Druid level specified in the Circle of Spores Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared. The Chill Touch spell doesn’t count against the number of cantrips you know.

Circle of Spores Spells

Level 3: Halo of Spores

You are surrounded by invisible, necrotic spores that are harmless until you unleash them on a creature nearby. When a creature you can see moves into a space within 10 feet of you or starts its turn there, you can force it to make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC or take 1d4 Necrotic damage, or half as much on a success. Once you deal this damage, you can’t do so again until the start of your next turn. The Necrotic damage increases to 1d6 at  level 6, 1d8 at level 10, and 1d10 at level 14.

Level 3: Symbiotic Entity

You gain the ability to channel magic into your spores. As a Bonus Action, you can expend a use of your Wild Shape feature to awaken those spores, rather than transforming into a beast form. While this feature is active, you gain the following benefits for 10 minutes or until you have the Incapacitated condition:

Temporary Hit Points. When you enter the form, you gain a number of Temporary Hit Points equal to four times your Druid level, which go away when the form ends.

Halo of Spores Improvement. When you deal your Halo of Spores damage, roll the die a second time and add it to the total.

Spore Strikes. Your melee attacks deal an extra 1d6 Necrotic damage on a hit.

Level 6: Fungal Infestation

Your spores gain the ability to infest a corpse and animate it. If a beast or a humanoid that is Small or Medium dies within 30 feet of you, you can take a Reaction to animate it, causing it to stand up immediately with 1 Hit Point.

Statistics. The creature uses the Zombie stat block from Appendix A of the Player’s Handbook, except it uses your Spell Attack modifier for its attack rolls.

Duration. It remains animated for 1 hour, or until it has 0 Hit Points, at which time it collapses and dies.

Combat. In combat, it takes its turn immediately after yours. It obeys your mental commands and the only action it takes is the Attack action.

Uses. You can take this Reaction a number of times up to your Wisdom Modifier (minimum once) and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 10: Spreading Spores

You gain the ability to seed an area with deadly spores. As a Bonus Action while your Symbiotic Entity feature is active, you can hurl spores up to 30 feet away, where they swirl in a 10-foot Cube for 1 minute. The spores disappear early if you use this feature again, if you dismiss them as a Bonus Action, or if your Symbiotic Entity feature is no longer active.

If a creature is within the area when you create it, or if it enters the area or ends its turn there, it must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC or take your Halo of Spores damage.

While the Cube of spores persists, you can’t use your Halo of Spores feature.

Level 14: Fungal Body

The fungal spores in your body alter you. You gain the following benefits while you don’t have the Incapacitated condition.

        Condition Immunity. You have Immunity to the Blinded, Deafened, Frightened and Poisoned conditions.

        Critical Hit Immunity. Any Critical Hit against you counts as a normal hit instead.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 2 features have moved to level 3
• Bane and Inflict Wounds have been added to the spell list.
• Halo of Spores no longer requires a Reaction, can only be used once per round, and deals half damage on a successful save.
• Spore Strikes now works on any melee attack (not just melee weapon attacks)
• The benefits of Symbiotic Entity no longer rely on you having the temporary hit points. It is also now activated as a Bonus Action.
• Spreading spores now deals damage when it’s created, or when a creature enters the area or ends its turn there, similar to the new Spirit Guardians.
• The range of Fungal Infestation has increased to 30 feet, and the zombie uses your spell attack to hit.

Circle of Wildfire

Updated by Spaghetti0
Embrace the Destructive and Restorative Powers of Fire

Druids within the Circle of Wildfire understand that destruction is sometimes the precursor of creation, such as when a forest fire promotes later growth. These Druids bond with a primal spirit that harbors both destructive and creative power, allowing the druids to create controlled flames that burn away one thing but give life to another.

Level 3: Circle Spells

You have formed a bond with a wildfire spirit, a primal being of creation and destruction. Your link with this spirit ensures that you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Druid level specified in the Circle of Wildfire Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared

Circle of Wildfire Spells

Level 3: Summon Wildfire Spirit

You can summon the primal spirit bound to your soul. As a Magic action, you can expend one use of your Wild Shape feature to summon your Wildfire Spirit, rather than assuming a beast form.

Burning Apparition. The Spirit appears in an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within 30 feet of you. Each creature within 10 feet of the Spirit (other than you) when it appears must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC or take 2d6 Fire damage.

Statistics. The Spirit is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands. See this creature’s game statistics in the Wildfire Spirit stat block, which uses your Proficiency Bonus (PB) and your Wisdom modifier in several places. You determine the spirit’s appearance. Some spirits take the form of a humanoid figure made of gnarled branches covered in flame, while others look like beasts wreathed in fire.

        Combat. In combat, the Spirit shares your Initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. The only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a Bonus Action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the spirit can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.

Duration. The spirit manifests for 1 hour, until it is reduced to 0 hit points, until you use this feature to summon the Spirit again, or until you die.

Level 6: Enhanced Bond

The bond with your Wildfire Spirit enhances your destructive and restorative spells. Whenever you cast a spell that deals Fire damage or restores Hit Points while your Wildfire Spirit is summoned, roll a d8, and you gain a bonus equal to the number rolled to one damage or healing roll of the spell.

In addition, when you cast a spell with a range other than self, the spell can originate from you or your Wildfire Spirit.

Level 10: Cauterizing Flames

You gain the ability to turn death into magical flames that can heal or incinerate. When a Small or larger creature dies within 30 feet of you or your Wildfire Spirit, a harmless spectral flame springs forth in the dead creature’s space and flickers there for 1 minute. When a creature you can see enters that space, you can take a Reaction to extinguish the spectral flame there and either heal the creature or deal fire damage to it. The healing or damage equals 2d10 + your Wisdom modifier.

You can use this Reaction a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 14: Blazing Revival

The bond with your Wildfire Spirit can save you from death. If the spirit is within 120 feet of you when you are reduced to 0 Hit Points and thereby become Unconscious, you can cause the spirit to drop to 0 Hit Points. You then regain half your Hit Points and immediately rise to your feet.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend a spell slot of level 4 or higher to restore its use (no action required)..

Update log

• Language changes.
• Level 2 features have moved to level 3.
• Plant Growth has been removed and replaced with Fireball.
• The Wildfire Spirit’s damage options use your Wisdom modifier instead of your Proficiency Bonus.
• Blazing Revival can be used again with a level 4+ spell slot.

Arcane Archer

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Master Magical Archery Techniques

An Arcane Archer studies a unique elven method of archery that weaves magic into attacks to produce supernatural effects. Arcane Archers are some of their most elite warriors among the elves. They stand watch over the fringes of elven domains, keeping a keen eye out for trespassers and using magic-infused arrows to defeat monsters and invaders before they can reach elven settlements. Over the centuries, the methods of these elf archers have been learned by members of other races who can also balance arcane aptitude with archery.

Level 3: Arcane Archer Lore

You learn magical theory or some of the secrets of nature – typical for practitioners of this elven martial tradition. You have proficiency in the Arcana or the Nature skill, and you learn the Prestidigitation or Druidcraft cantrip. Intelligence is your spellcasting modifier for it.

Level 3: Arcane Shot

You learn to unleash special magical effects with some of your shots. You learn two Arcane Shots of your choice (see "Arcane Shot Options" below). You learn an extra Arcane Shot of your choice when you reach level 7, and again at level 10, at level 15, and level 18. The damage of all Arcane Shots increases at level 10 and level 18.

When you use the Attack action and you hit a creature with a ranged weapon, you can activate one of your Arcane Shots. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1) and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Level 7: Magic Shot

You gain the ability to infuse your projectiles with magic.

Infused Shots. Whenever you attack with a ranged weapon, you can choose to deal the weapon’s damage type or Force damage.

Curved Shots. When you attack with a ranged weapon and miss, you can use your Reaction to reroll the attack roll against a different target within 60 feet of the original target.

Level 15: Ever-Ready Shot

If you roll Initiative and are missing any uses of your Arcane Shot, you regain one use of it.

Arcane Shot Options

If an option requires a saving throw, your Arcane Shot save DC equals 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus + your Intelligence Modifier.

Banishing Shot. You use abjuration magic to try to temporarily banish your target to a harmless location in the Feywild. The target must succeed on a Charisma save or be banished. While banished in this way, its Speed is 0, and it has the Incapacitated condition. At the end of its next turn, the target reappears in the space it vacated or in the nearest unoccupied space if that space is occupied. At level 10, the target also takes an extra 2d6 Force damage when the arrow hits it. This damage increases to 3d6 at level 18.

Beguiling Shot. Your enchantment magic causes this projectile to temporarily beguile its target. Choose one of your allies within 30 feet of the target. The target takes an extra 2d6 Psychic damage and makes a Wisdom save. On a failed save, it has the Charmed condition until the start of your next turn, with the chosen ally as the source. The Psychic damage increases by 1d6 at level 10 (3d6) and at level 18 (4d6).

Bursting Shot. You imbue the projectile with force energy drawn from the school of evocation. It detonates after it hits or misses the target. The target and all other creatures within 10 feet of it make a Dexterity save. A creature takes 3d6 Force damage on a failed save, half as much on a successful one. The Force damage increases by 2d6 at level 10 (5d6) and at level 18 (7d6).

Enfeebling Shot. You weave necromantic magic into your projectile. The target takes an extra 2d6 Necrotic damage and makes a Constitution save. On a failed save, all damage dealt by the target is halved. The Necrotic damage increases by 1d6 at level 10 (3d6) and at level 18 (4d6).

Grasping Shot. When this projectile strikes its target, conjuration magic creates grasping, poisonous brambles, which wrap around the target. The target takes an extra 2d6 Poison damage and its Speed is reduced by 10 feet. The first time it moves on its turn without teleporting, it takes 2d6 Slashing damage. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make a Strength save. On a success, the effect ends. The brambles last for 1 minute, until you use it again, or if the target manages to escape early. The Poison damage and Slashing damage both increase by 1d6 at level 10 (3d6) and at level 18 (4d6).

Piercing Shot. You use transmutation magic to give your projectile an ethereal quality. The target takes an extra 3d6 Piercing damage. After the projectile hits or misses the target it continues flying in a 30-foot Line, passing through objects and ignoring cover. Each creature in that Line must make a Dexterity save. A creature takes 3d6 Piercing damage on a failed save, half as much on a successful one. The Piercing damage increases by 2d6 at level 10 (5d6) and at level 18 (7d6).

Seeking Shot. Using divination magic, you grant your projectile the ability to seek out your target, allowing it to curve and twist its path in search of its prey. When you use this option, you don’t make an attack roll for the attack. Instead, choose one creature you have seen in the past minute. The arrow flies toward that creature, moving around corners if necessary and ignoring three-quarters cover and half cover. If the target is within the weapon’s range and there is a path large enough for the arrow to travel to the target, the target makes a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 3d6 Force damage, and you learn the target’s current location. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage, and you don’t learn its location. The Force damage increases by 2d6 at level 10 (5d6) and at level 18 (7d6).

Shadow Shot. You weave illusion magic into your projectile, causing it to occlude your foe’s vision with shadows. The target takes an extra 2d6 Psychic damage, and it must succeed on a Wisdom save or have the Blinded condition until the start of your next turn. The Psychic damage increases by 1d6 at level 10 (3d6) and at level 18 (4d6z.

Echo Knight

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Conjure a Mirrored Self from Alternate Timelines

A mysterious and feared frontline warrior of the Kryn Dynasty, the Echo Knight has mastered the art of using dunamis to summon the fading shades of unrealized timelines to aid them in battle. Surrounded by echoes of their own might, they charge into the fray as a cycling swarm of shadows and strikes.

Level 3: Manifest Echo

You can use a Bonus Action to magically manifest an echo of yourself in an unoccupied space you can see within 15 feet of you. It is a magical, translucent, gray image of you that lasts until it is destroyed, until you dismiss it as a Bonus Action, until you manifest another echo, or until you have the Incapacitated condition.

Your echo is considered an object, but uses your game statistics, except it has an Armor Class equal to 12 plus your Constitution modifier, 1 Hit Point, and Immunity to all conditions. On your turn, you can mentally command the echo to move in any direction. If your echo is ever more than 30 feet from you at the end of your turn, it is destroyed. As a Bonus Action, magically swap places with your echo at a cost of 15 feet of your movement, regardless of the distance between the two of you.

When you take the Attack action, any attack you make can originate from your space or the echo's space. You make this choice for each attack. When a creature that you can see within 5 feet of your echo moves at least 5 feet away from it, you can use your Reaction to make an Opportunity Attack against that creature as if you were in the echo's space.

Level 3: Unleash Incarnation

You can heighten your echo's fury. Whenever you take the Attack action, you can make one additional attack from the echo's position. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (a minimum of 1). You regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 7: Echo Avatar

You can temporarily transfer your consciousness to your echo. As an action, you can see through your echo's eyes and hear through its ears. During this time, you have the Deafened and Blinded conditions. This effect lasts for 10 minutes or until you end it early (no action required). While using this feature, your echo can be up to 1,000 feet away from you without it being destroyed.

Level 10: Shadow Martyr

You can make your echo throw itself in front of an attack directed at another creature that you can see within 30 feet of you. Before the attack roll is made, you can use your Reaction to teleport the echo to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the targeted creature. The attack roll that triggered the Reaction is instead made against your echo. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Level 15: Reclaim Potential

You've learned to absorb the fleeting magic of your echo. When an echo of yours is destroyed by taking damage, you can gain a number of Temporary Hit Points equal to 1d8 + your Constitution modifier. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (a minimum of 1). You regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 18: Legion of One

Your summoning powers have grown more potent.

        Endless Echoes. When you roll Initiative and are missing any uses of your Unleash Incarnation feature, you regain one use of it.

        Double Up. You can use a Bonus Action to create two echos with your Manifest Echo feature, and these echoes can co-exist. If you try to create a third echo, the previous two echoes are destroyed. Anything you can do from one echo's position can be done from the other's instead.

Update log

• Language changes.
• The echo can now move equal to your Speed.
• Changed the AC of the echo to 12 + Con.
• Removed the melee restriction on Unleash Incarnation.
• Gave Shadow Martyr a range of 30 feet mirroring the destruction of the echo from Manifest Echo.
• Removed the restriction of Reclaim Potential that you don’t gain temp hp when you already have some, but reduced the amount from 2d6 + Con to 1d8 + Con.
• Changed Legion of One so you regain a use of Unleash Incarnation whenever you are missing a number of uses.

Banneret

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Inspire Greatness in your Team

A banneret is a knight who inspires greatness in others by committing brave deeds in battle. The mere presence of one in a hamlet is enough to cause some orcs and bandits to seek easier prey. A lone banneret is a skilled warrior, but a banneret leading a band of allies can transform even the most poorly equipped militia into a ferocious war band.

A banneret prefers to lead through deeds, not words. As a banneret spearheads an attack, their actions can awaken reserves of courage and conviction in allies that they never suspected they had.

Level 3: Royal Envoy

Knights of high standing are expected to conduct themselves with grace in anyone’s presence. You learn two languages of your choice and you have proficiency in the Persuasion skill. If you already have this proficiency you have Expertise in it instead and you can choose one other skill to have proficiency in.

Your waving banner provides your allies an inspiring sight in battle. You have 3 Banner Dice, which are d10s. A Banner Die is expended when you use it. You regain 1 Banner Die when you finish a Short Rest and all expended dice when you finish a Long Rest. You gain an additional Banner Die at level 10 and another at level 15. You can use your Banner Dice in the following ways:

Invigorate. As a Bonus Action you can choose up to three creatures of your choice that can see or hear you within 60 of you. Each creature regains a number of Hit Points equal to a roll of your Banner Die. The number of Hit Points regained increases by 1 extra roll of your Banner Dice at level 10 (2 rolls) and at level 15 (3 rolls).

Instruct. When a creature that can hear or see you within 60 feet of you misses an attack, you can use your Reaction to let it roll a Banner Die and add it to the result, potentially causing the attack to hit instead. If the attack still misses, the Banner Die isn’t expended.

Level 7: Lead By Example

Your actions in combat serve as an example to your allies.

Pinpoint. When you use your Instruct feature and the attack hits, it deals extra damage equal to half of your Fighter level.

Assemble. When you use your Tactical Shift, you can choose a creature that you can see within 60 feet of you. It can immediately move up to half its Speed without provoking Opportunity Attacks.

Level 10: Commander

You make your allies shine by utilizing your combat prowess and experience.

Apprise. When a spell or effect forces up to 3 of your allies to make a saving throw, you can expend a Banner Die to let each creature roll a d10 and add it to its save.

Single Out. Whenever you attack a creature, you can expend a Banner Die and choose one ally that can hear or see you within 60 feet of you. It can use its Reaction to make one attack against your target.

Level 15: Flanking Position

When you attack a creature and you don't have Disadvantage on the attack, all creatures that can hear or see you within 60 feet of you have Advantage on their first attack against it before the start of your next turn.

Level 18: Warlord

Your commanding presence reaches its peak.

Rally. When you use your Assemble feature, you can choose up to three creatures that can move with you.

Expose. When you use your Single Out feature, you can expend a second Banner Die to turn the attack of your ally into a Critical Hit.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Royal Envoy now gives two languages and Expertise in Persuasion
• Apart from Royal Envoy all features are new, using a dice pool called Banner Dice. These can be used for different features that aid your allies.

Cavalier

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal

Defend Allies on Horseback (Horse Optional)

The archetypal cavalier excels at mounted combat. Usually born among the nobility and raised at court, a cavalier is equally at home leading a cavalry charge or exchanging repartee at a state dinner. Cavaliers also learn how to guard those in their charge from harm, often serving as the protectors of their superiors and of the weak. Compelled to right wrongs or earn prestige, many of these fighters leave their lives of comfort to embark on glorious adventure.

Level 3: Cavalry Training

You are trained in mounted combat and the responsibilities that come with it.

Custodian. You have proficiency in the Animal Handling skill and one of the following skills of your choice: History, Insight, Performance, or Persuasion.

Saddle Up. Mounting or dismounting a creature costs you only 5 feet of movement, rather than half your speed.

Level 3: Unwavering Mark

You can menace your foes, foiling their attacks and punishing them for harming others.

Taunt. When you hit a creature with a melee attack, you can mark the creature until the end of your next turn. This effect ends early if you have the Incapacitated condition, if you die, or if someone else marks the creature. While it is within the reach of your weapon, a creature marked by you has Disadvantage on any attack roll that doesn't target you.

        Punish. If a creature marked by you deals damage to anyone other than you, you can make a special melee attack against the marked creature as a Bonus Action on your next turn. You have Advantage on the attack roll, and if it hits it deals extra damage equal to half your fighter level.

You regain 1 use whenever you finish a Short Rest and all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 7: Warding Maneuver

If the triggering attack still hits, the target has Resistance against the attack's damage. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (a minimum of 1). You regain 1 expended use when you finish a Short Rest and all expended uses of it when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 10: Hold the Line

You become a master of locking down your enemies. Creatures provoke an Opportunity Attack from you when they move 5 feet or more while within your reach, and if you hit a creature with an Opportunity Attack, the target's Speed is reduced to 0 until the end of the current turn.

Level 15: Ferocious Charger

You can run down your foes, whether you're mounted or not. If you move at least 10 feet in a straight line right before attacking a creature and you hit it with the attack, that target must  make a Strength saving throw (DC 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus plus your Strength modifier). On a failed save, it has Prone condition You can use this feature only once on each of your turns.

Level 18: Vigilant Defender

You respond to danger with extraordinary vigilance. In combat, you get a special Reaction that you can take once on every creature's turn, except your own. You can use this special Reaction only to make an Opportunity Attack, and you can't use it on the same turn that you take your normal Reaction.

Update log

• Language changes.
• Combined Bonus Proficiency and Born to the Saddle into Cavalry Training, which now gives you Animal Handling proficiency and one other skill from the list.
• Unwavering Mark remains active for as long as the creature is within the reach of your weapon instead of 5 feet.

Rune Knight

Updated by Spaghetti0 and PerfectlyCircularSeal
Channel the Runic Magic of Giants

Rune Knights enhance their martial prowess using the supernatural power of runes, an ancient practice that originated with giants. Rune cutters can be found among any family of giants, and you likely learned your methods first or second hand from such a mystical artisan. Whether you found the giant’s work carved into a hill or cave, learned of the runes from a sage, or met the giant in person, you studied the giant’s craft and learned how to apply magic runes to empower your equipment.

Level 3: Rune Carver

You can use magic runes to enhance your gear.

Inscription Equipment. You gain a set of Smith’s Tools and you have proficiency with it. You also learn to speak, read and write Giant. 

Learning Runes. You learn two Runes of your choice, from among the Runes described below, and each time you gain a level in this class, you can replace one Rune you know with a different one from this feature. You learn an additional Rune when you reach certain levels in this class: level 7 (3 uses), level 10 (4 uses) and level 15 (5 uses).

Inscribing Runes. Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can touch a number of objects equal to the number of Runes you know, and you inscribe a different Rune onto each of the objects. To be eligible, an object must be a Weapon, a suit of Armor, a Shield, a piece of jewelry, or something else you can wear or hold in a hand. Your Rune remains on an object until you finish a Long Rest, and an object can bear only one of your Runes at a time. A Rune can be invoked for an effect detailed in its description, once you do so, you can’t invoke the same Rune again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

The following Runes are available to you when you learn a Rune. If a Rune has a level requirement, you must be at least that level in this class to learn the Rune. If a Rune requires a saving throw, your Rune Magic save DC equals 8 plus your Proficiency Bonus plus your Constitution modifier.

Cloud Rune. This Rune emulates the deceptive magic used by some cloud giants.

• While wearing or carrying an object inscribed with this Rune, you have Advantage on Sleight of Hand checks and Deception checks.
• When you or a creature you can see within 30 feet of you is hit by an attack roll, you can take a Reaction to invoke the Rune and choose a different creature within 30 feet of you, other than the attacker. The chosen creature becomes the target of the attack, using the same roll. This magic can transfer the attack’s effects regardless of the attack’s range.

Fire Rune. This Rune’s magic channels the masterful craftsmanship of great smiths.

• While wearing or carrying an object inscribed with this Rune, you have Expertise in the Artisan’s Tools you have proficiency in.
• When you hit a creature with an attack using a weapon, you can invoke the Rune to summon fiery shackles: the target takes an extra 2d6 Fire damage, and it must succeed on a Strength saving throw or have the Restrained condition for 1 minute. While Restrained by the shackles, the target takes 2d6 fire damage at the start of each of its turns. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, banishing the shackles on a success.

Frost Rune. This Rune’s magic evokes the might of those who survive in the wintry wilderness, such as frost giants.

• While wearing or carrying an object inscribed with this Rune, you have advantage on Animal Handling checks and Intimidation checks.
• You can invoke the Rune as a Bonus Action to increase your sturdiness. For 10 minutes, you gain a +2 bonus to all ability checks and saving throws that use Strength or Constitution, as well as to the saving throw DC of your Unarmed Strikes.

Stone Rune. This Rune's magic channels the judiciousness associated with stone giants.

• While wearing or carrying an object inscribed with this rune, you have Advantage on Insight checks, and you have Darkvision with a range of 120 feet.
• When a creature you can see ends its turn within 30 feet of you, you can use your Reaction to invoke the Rune and force the creature to make a Wisdom saving throw. Unless the save succeeds, the creature has the Charmed condition for 1 minute. While Charmed in this way, the creature has a speed of 0 and has the Incapacitated condition, descending into a dreamy stupor. The creature repeats the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.

Hill Rune (Level 7 or Higher). This Rune's magic bestows a resilience reminiscent of a hill giant.

• While wearing or carrying an object that bears this Rune, you have Advantage on saves against having the Poisoned condition, and you have Resistance against Poison damage.
• You can invoke the Rune as a Bonus Action, gaining Resistance to Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing damage for 1 minute.

Storm Rune (Level 7 or Higher). Using this rune, you can glimpse the future like a storm giant seer.

• You can invoke the Rune as a Bonus Action to enter a prophetic state for 1 minute or until you have the Incapacitated condition. Until the state ends, when you or another creature you can see within 60 feet of you makes an attack roll, a saving throw, or an ability check, you can use your reaction to cause the roll to have advantage or disadvantage.

Level 3: Giant’s Might

You have learned how to imbue yourself with the might of giants. As a Bonus Action, you magically gain the following benefits for 1 minute:

Giant Sized. If you are smaller than Large, you become Large, along with anything you are wearing. If you lack the room to become Large, your size doesn't change.

Giant’s Strength. You have advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws.

Gigantic Force. Once per turn, when you make an attack you deal an extra 1d6 damage to a target on a hit.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 7: Runic Shield

You learn to invoke your rune magic to protect your allies. When another creature you can see within 60 feet of you is hit by an attack, you can use your Reaction to force the attacker to reroll the d20 and use the new roll. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Level 10: Great Stature

The magic of your runes permanently alters you.

Growth. When you gain this feature, roll 3d4. You grow a number of inches in height equal to the roll.

Colossal Force. The extra damage you deal with your Giant's Might feature increases to 1d10.

Samurai

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Fight Deliberately and Precisely. Be Unwavering

The Samurai is a fighter who draws on an implacable fighting spirit to overcome enemies. A samurai’s resolve is nearly unbreakable, and the enemies in a samurai’s path have two choices: yield or die fighting.

Level 3: Brush and Blade

You gain a set of Calligrapher’s Tools and you have proficiency in it and two of the following skills of your choice: History, Insight, Performance, or Persuasion.

Level 3: Fighting Spirit

Your intensive training in battle grants you unparalleled focus.

Precision. When you make an attack, you can choose to enter a focus state giving yourself Advantage on the attack and all attacks until the start of your next turn. When you do so, you also gain Temporary Hit Points equal to your Wisdom modifier + half of your Fighter level (minimum of 1). You can use this feature 4 times. You regain 1 expended use when you finish a Short Rest and all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Stamina. As a Bonus Action, you can regain half of your Second Wind uses (rounded up). Once you do so, you can’t do it again until you finish a Long Rest.

You learn to trade accuracy for swift strikes. Once per turn, if you make an attack and have Advantage on it, you can forgo the Advantage for that roll to make an additional attack against that target as part of the same action, Bonus Action or Reaction.

Level 18: Strength Before Death

Your fighting spirit can delay the grasp of death. If you are reduced to 0 Hit Points, you can use your Reaction to delay having the Unconscious condition, and you can immediately take an extra turn. While you have 0 Hit Points during that extra turn, taking damage causes Death Save failures as normal, and three Death Save failures can still kill you. When the extra turn ends, you have the Unconscious condition if you still have 0 hit points. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest.

Update log

• Language changes.

• Replaced Tireless Spirit with Tactical Strike, which lets you make an attack when you use your Tactical Shift, promoting a more movement based playstyle.
• Rapid Strike is not tied to the Attack action anymore, instead just work on any attack you make to synergise better with Tactical Strike and the Fighting Spirit advantage also working with opportunity attacks.

Warrior of the Ascendant Dragon

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Harness your Inner Draconic Power

The fundamental teaching of this tradition holds that by emulating dragons, a monk becomes a more integrated part of the world and its magic. By altering their spirit to resonate with draconic might, monks who follow this tradition augment their prowess in battle, bolster their allies, and can even soar through the air on draconic wings. But all this power is in service of a greater goal: achieving a spiritual unity with the essence of the Material Plane.

As a follower of this Monastic Tradition, you decide how you unlocked the power of dragons through your focus. The Ascendant Dragon Origin table offers some possibilities.

Ascendant Dragon Origin

Level 3: Draconic Disciple

You can channel draconic power to magnify your presence and imbue your unarmed strikes with the essence of a dragon’s breath. You gain the following benefits:

Draconic Presence. If you fail an Intimidation or Persuasion check, you can use your Reaction to reroll the check and add a roll of your Martial Arts die to the result, as you tap into the mighty presence of dragons. Once this feature turns a failure into a success, you can’t use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Draconic Strike. When you make an Unarmed Strike, you can change the damage type to Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Poison.

Tongue of Dragons. You learn to speak, read, and write Draconic or one other language of your choice.

Level 3: Breath of the Dragon

You can channel destructive waves of energy, like those created by the dragons. When you make a melee attack or Unarmed Strike, you can replace one of the attacks with an exhalation of draconic energy in either a 20-foot Cone or a 30-foot Line that is 5 feet wide (your choice). Choose a damage type: Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Poison. Each creature in that area must make a Dexterity save against your Focus save DC, taking damage of the chosen type equal to two rolls of your Martial Arts die plus your Wisdom modifier on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. At level 11, the damage of this feature increases to three rolls of your Martial Arts die.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest. Alternatively, you can spend 2 Focus Points to use this feature without expending a use of it.

Level 6: Wings Unfurled

When you use your Step of the Wind, you can unfurl spectral draconic wings from your back that vanish at the end of your turn. While the wings exist, you have a Fly Speed equal to your Speed.

Level 11: Aspect of the Wyrm

The power of your draconic spirit now radiates from you, warding your allies or inspiring fear in your enemies. As a Bonus Action, you can create an Emanation of draconic power that radiates 10 feet from you for 1 minute. For the duration, you gain one of the following effects of your choice:

Frightful Presence. When you create the Emanation and as a Bonus Action on subsequent turns, you can choose a creature within the Emanation. The target must succeed on a Wisdom save against your Focus save DC or have the Frightened condition for 1 minute. The target can repeat its saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a successful save.

Resistance. Choose a damage type when you activate the Emanation: Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Poison. You and your allies within the Emanation have Resistance to that damage type.

Once you create the Emanation, you can’t create it again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend 3 Focus Points to create it again.

Level 17: Ascendant Aspect

Your draconic spirit reaches its peak. You gain the following benefits:

Augment Breath. When you use your Breath of the Dragon, you can spend 1 Focus Point to augment its shape and power. The exhalation of draconic energy becomes either a 60-foot Cone or a 90-foot Line that is 5 feet wide (your choice), and each creature in that area takes damage equal to four rolls of your Martial Arts die on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Blindsight. You have Blindsight with a range of 30 feet.

Explosive Fury. When you activate your Aspect of the Wyrm, draconic fury explodes from you. Choose any number of creatures you can see in your Emanation. Each of those creatures must succeed on a Dexterity save against your Focus save DC or take 3d10 Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Poison damage (your choice).

Update Log:

• Language changes
• Draconic Presence is now regained on a Short Rest and you can add your Martial Arts die to the reroll.
• Breath of the Dragon is now usable on any attack, not just the Attack action. It is also not restricted to your turn anymore, so you can make the breath attack as an opportunity attack.
• Wings Unfurled is now permanently usable.
• All features that had a number of uses equal to your PB are now equal to your Wis mod.
• All features that were reusable through Ki points, can now always be used using Focus Points regardless of whether you have any uses left.
• The Blindsight of Ascendant Aspect is now 30 feet.

Warrior of the Astral Self

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Strike your Enemies with Four Arms at Once

A monk who follows the Way of the Astral Self believes their body is an illusion. They see their ki as a representation of their true form, an astral self. This astral self has the capacity to be a force of order or disorder, with some monasteries training students to use their power to protect the weak and other instructing aspirants in how to manifest their true selves in service to the mighty.

Level 3: Arms of the Astral Self

As a Bonus Action, you can spend 1 Focus Point to manifest your astral self as a set of spectral arms that hover near your shoulders or surround your arms (your choice). The arms last for 10 minutes and vanish early if you have the Incapacitated condition or die. While the arms are active, you gain the following benefits:

Arms of Spirit. The reach of your Unarmed Strikes increases by 5 feet and you can choose to deal Force damage instead of Bludgeoning damage when you make an Unarmed Strike.

        Astral Strike. You can use the spectral arms to make Unarmed Strikes. When you do, you can use your Wisdom modifier instead of your Dexterity or Strength modifier for the attack and damage rolls.

        Astral Touch. You can use your Wisdom modifier in place of your Strength modifier when making Strength checks and saves.

Sidereal Sweep. As part of the Bonus Action you use to summon the astral arms, you swipe your arms around you. Each creature of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of you must succeed on a Dexterity save or take Force damage equal to two rolls of your Martial Arts die and be pushed 10 feet away from you. You can repeat this attack as a Bonus Action on each of your turns by spending 1 Focus Point.

Level 6: Visage of the Astral Self

A spectral visage covers your face like a helmet or mask. You determine its appearance. You gain the following benefits:

Astral Sight. You have Darkvision with a range of 120 feet. If you already have Darkvision, its range increases by 60 feet.

Word of the Spirit. When you speak, you can direct your words to a creature of your choice that you can see within 60 feet of you, making it so only that creature can hear you. Alternatively, you can amplify your voice so that all creatures within 600 feet can hear you.

Augmented Visage. As a Bonus Action, you can spend 1 Focus Points to augment the visage for 1 hour. When you do so, your Darkvision allows you to see normally in magical darkness and you gain Advantage on Insight, Intimidation and Perception checks.

Level 11: Mantle of the Astral Self

When you activate your Arms of the Astral Self feature, you can spend an additional 2 Focus Points to drape yourself in a mantle of cosmic light. You gain the following benefits:

        Antigravitational. Your jump distance is tripled and you don’t take fall damage if you fall less than 60 feet.

        Extended Self. The reach of your Unarmed Strikes increases by an additional 5 feet.

        Comet Strike. Once per turn, when a creature takes damage from your Unarmed Strikes or Sidereal Sweep, you can deal extra damage equal to half of your Monk level.

Level 17: Awakened Astral Self        

When you activate your Mantle of the Astral Self, you can expend an additional 2 Focus Points to fully awaken your astral self. You gain the following benefits:

        Armor of the Spirit. You gain a +2 bonus to your Armor Class.

Astral Barrage. Whenever you use the Extra Attack feature to attack twice, you can instead attack three times.        

Update Log:

• Language changes
• The AoE of Arms of the Astral Self is now repeatable for 1 Focus Point.
• Visage of the Astral Self was split into a permanent half and a Focus Point half. Wisdom of the Spirit and the magical darkvision were combined into Augmented Visage, which now also grants advantage on Perception checks.
• New level 11 feature, Mantle of the Astral Self gives you additional benefits when you summon your astral arms. More reach, increased jump distance without falling and a once per turn bonus damage.

Drunken Warrior

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal

Weave and Sway out of the Way of Attacks  

The Way of the Drunken Master teaches its students to move with the jerky, unpredictable movements of a drunkard. A drunken master sways, tottering on unsteady feet, to present what seems like an incompetent combatant who proves frustrating to engage. The drunken master’s erratic stumbles conceal a carefully executed dance of blocks, parries, advances, attacks, and retreats.

A drunken master often enjoys playing the fool to bring gladness to the despondent or to demonstrate humility to the arrogant, but when battle is joined, the drunken master can be a maddening, masterful foe.

Level 3: Drunken Technique

Your martial arts technique mixes combat training with the precision of a dancer and the antics of a jester.

        Homebrewed. You gain a set of Brewer’s Supplies and you have proficiency with it. You also have proficiency with the Performance skill.

        Twist and Turn. Whenever you use Flurry of Blows, you gain the benefit of the Disengage action, and your Speed increases by 10 feet until the start of your next turn.

Level 6: Tipsy Sway

You can move in sudden, swaying ways. You gain the following benefits.

Leap to Your Feet. When you have the Prone condition, you can stand up by spending 5 feet of movement, rather than half your speed.

Redirect Attack. You can subtract your Wisdom modifier when reducing the damage for your Deflect Attacks feature. In addition, even when a creature misses you with the attack, you can spend 1 Focus Point to use your Deflect Attacks feature to redirect it.

Level 11: Drunkard's Luck

You always seem to get a lucky bounce at the right moment. When you make a D20 Test, you can spend 2 Focus Points to gain Advantage on it.

Level 17: Intoxicated Frenzy

You gain the ability to make an overwhelming number of attacks against a group of enemies. When you use your Flurry of Blows, you can make up to three additional attacks with it. Each target can only be hit by a maximum of three Flurry of Blows attacks.

Update Log:

• Language changes
• Drunken Technique now grants you a set of Brewer’s Supplies to use.
• Twist and Turn now lasts until the start of your next turn in case you can move via an ally’s feature.
• Redirect Attack now works in parallel with Deflect Attacks and you can add your Wisdom modifier to the damage reduction as well.
• Drunkard’s Luck is now a way to get advantage on any roll, making it less situational.
• Intoxicated Frenzy now lets you attack any of your targets a maximum of three times.

Kensei Warrior

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Masterfully Mix Weapons with Martial Arts

Monks of the Way of the Kensei train relentlessly with their weapons, to the point that the weapon becomes like an extension of the body. Founded on a mastery of sword fighting, the tradition has expanded to include many different weapons.

A kensei sees a weapon much in the same way a calligrapher or a painter regards a pen or brush. Whatever the weapon, the kensei views it as a tool used to express the beauty and precision of the martial arts. That such mastery makes a kensei a peerless warrior is but a side effect of intense devotion, practice, and study.

Level 3: Path of the Kensei

Your special martial arts training leads you to master the use of certain weapons. This path also includes instruction in the deft strokes of calligraphy or painting. You gain the following benefits:

Kensei Weapons. Choose one melee weapon and one ranged weapon. Each of these weapons can be any simple or martial weapon that lacks the Heavy and Special properties. The Longbow is also a valid choice. You have proficiency with these weapons if you don't already have it and you can use its Mastery property. These weapons are monk weapons for you. When you finish a Long Rest, you can change each of your Kensei weapons for a different weapon of your choice, following the criteria above. You can choose another weapon – either melee or ranged – to be a Kensei weapon for you, following the criteria above, at levels 6, 11 and 17.

Agile Parry. If you make an Unarmed Strike and you are holding a melee Kensei weapon, you can use it to defend yourself. You gain a +2 bonus to Armor Class until the start of your next turn, while the weapon is in your hand and you don’t have the Incapacitated condition.

Kensei's Shot. You can use your Bonus Action to aim your shots. Until the start of your next turn, when you make a ranged attack with a Kensei weapon you deal additional damage equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1).

Way of the Brush. You gain a set of Calligrapher’s Supplies and a set of Painter’s Supplies. You have proficiency with both of these.

Level 6: One with the Blade

Your focus empowers your Kensei weapons, granting you the following benefits.

Magic Kensei Weapons. When you attack with a Kensei weapon, you can choose to deal the weapon’s damage type or Force damage.

Deft Strike. Once per turn, when you hit a creature with a Kensei weapon, you can spend 1 Focus Point to deal additional damage equal to a roll of your Martial Arts die.

Level 11: Sharpen the Blade

You gain the ability to augment your weapons further with your focus. As a Bonus Action, you can expend up to 3 Focus Points to grant a Kensei weapon you touch a bonus to attack and damage rolls equal to the number of Focus Points you spent. This bonus lasts for 10 minutes or until you use this feature again. If you want to use this effect on a magic weapon that already has a bonus to attack and damage rolls, you need to spend twice the number of Focus Points. The attack and damage bonus of the weapon when you apply this effect cannot be higher than 3.

Level 17: Unerring Accuracy

Your mastery of weapons grants you extraordinary accuracy. Once per turn, if you miss with an attack using a monk weapon, you can reroll it and add your Wisdom modifier to the result and must use the new roll.

Update Log:

• Language changes
• You can swap your Kensei weapons on a Long Rest
• Kensei Shot now lets you deal additional damage on your Ranged Attacks equal to your Wisdom modifier and it lasts until the start of your next turn.
• You gain both proficiencies of Way of the Brush and you also gain a set of both tools.
• Magic Kensei Weapons now lets you choose Force damage (similar to all other magical weapon features)
• Sharpen the Blade now works on magic weapons with an attack bonus, but the total bonus to attack and damage rolls cannot be higher than 3. It also now lasts for 10 minutes, rather than 1.
• Unerring Accuracy now adds your Wisdom modifier to the reroll.

Warrior of the Long Death

Updated by PerfectlyCircularSeal
Master Death to Become Unkillable

Monks of the Way of the Long Death are obsessed with the meaning and mechanics of dying. They capture creatures and prepare elaborate experiments to capture, record, and understand the moments of their demise. They then use this knowledge to guide their understanding of martial arts, yielding a deadly fighting style.

Level 3: Touch of Death

Your study of death allows you to extract vitality from another creature as it nears its demise. When you reduce an enemy to 0 Hit Points, you gain Temporary Hit Points equal to your Wisdom modifier plus your Monk level (minimum of 1 Temporary Hit Point). You also gain this benefit if someone else reduces an enemy within 10 feet of you to 0 Hit Points.

Level 6: Hour of Reaping

You gain the ability to unsettle or terrify those around you as your soul has been touched by the shadow of death. As a Bonus Action you can force each creature of your choice within 30 feet of you that can see you to succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have the Frightened condition until the end of your next turn.

Level 11: Mastery of Death

You use your familiarity with death to escape its grasp. When you are reduced to 0 hit points, you can expend 1 Focus Point to have 1 Hit Point instead.

Level 17: Touch of the Long Death

Your touch can channel the energy of death into a creature. As an action, you touch one creature within your reach and expend 1 to 10 Focus Points. The target must make a Constitution save. On a failed save, it takes 2d10 necrotic damage per Focus Point spent on, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Update Log:

• Language changes
• Touch of Death now mimics the Dark One’s Blessing of the Fiend Warlock.
• Hour of Reaping is now a Bonus Action instead of an action.
• Touch of the Long Death now applies to creatures within your reach, not only within 5 feet.

Warrior of the Sun Soul

Updated by Spaghetti0 and PerfectlyCircularSeal
Blast Foes from a Distance with Radiant Energy

Monks of the Way of the Sun Soul learn to channel their own life energy into searing bolts of light. They teach that meditation can unlock the ability to unleash the indomitable light shed by the soul of every living creature.

Level 3: Radiant Sun Bolt

Whenever you make an Unarmed Strike and take the Damage option, you can make a ranged attack roll as you shoot a bolt of radiant energy from your fists, instead of the normal strike. When you do, the strike deals Radiant damage instead of the normal damage type, and the attack has a normal range of 30 feet and a long range of 60 feet. Being within 5 feet of an enemy does not impose Disadvantage on this attack.

Level 6: Blinding Light

When you expend a Focus Point to use Patient Defense, you can create a bright, flashing light. Choose a number of creatures that you can see within 10 feet of you equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1 creature). Each creature must succeed on a Constitution save against your Focus save DC or have the Blinded condition until the end of its next turn.

Level 11: Searing Radiance

You have gained the ability to create tremendous blasts of radiant energy, flowing directly from your essence. As a Magic action, you can produce the effects of the Fireball or Lightning Bolt spells without components or expending a spell slot, with the following alterations:

        Radiant Damage. The effects deal Radiant damage, instead of the usual damage type.

        Extra Damage. You add half your Monk level (rounded down) to the damage roll of the spell.

        Upcasting. When you use this feature, you can spend Focus Points to increase the effective level that the spell is cast at, at a rate of 1 Focus Points per spell level above 3. The maximum effective level you can cast the spell at is equal to 1 + your Monk level divided by 4 (rounded down).

The spells use your Focus save DC. Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a Short or Long Rest, or until you spend 4 Focus Points to use it again.

Level 17: Sun Shield

You become wreathed in a luminous, magical aura. You shed bright light in a 30-foot Emanation and dim light for an additional 30 feet. You can extinguish or restore the light as a Bonus Action.

When you use your Deflect Attacks feature to reduce the damage of an attack made by a creature within the bright light of this feature, the attacker takes Radiant damage equal to one roll of your Martial Arts die + your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1 damage). If you spend a Focus Point to redirect the attack, the target of the redirected attack also takes this damage on a failed save, in addition to the normal damage of Deflect Attacks.

Update Log:

• Language changes
• Revised Radiant Sun Bolt so it isn’t written as complicated as before for such a simple concept. It also now has a long range of 60 feet and being in melee doesn’t impose disadvantage on attacks.
• Added a new level 6 feature Blinding Light that lets you blind enemies when you use your Patient Defense feature.
• Spiritually combined Searing Arc Strike and Searing Sunburst into a feature that allows you to cast an empowered version of Fireball or Lightning Bolt. The feature can be used once per short rest, or with 4 Focus Points
• Sun Shield is now built around the Deflect Attacks feature, and the damage uses a roll of your Martial Arts die, instead of a flat 5.

Oath of Conquest

Updated by Shades the Mothman

Subjugate the Unworthy with an Iron Fist

The Oath of Conquest calls to paladins who seek glory in battle and the subjugation of their enemies. It isn’t enough for these paladins to establish order. They must crush the forces of chaos. Sometimes called knight tyrants or iron mongers, those who swear this oath gather into grim orders that serve gods or philosophies of war and well-ordered might.

Some of these paladins go so far as to consort with the powers of the Nine Hells, valuing the rule of law over the balm of mercy. The archdevil Bel, warlord of Avernus, counts many of these paladins – called hell knights – as his most ardent supporters. Hell knights cover their armor with trophies taken from fallen enemies, a grim warning to any who dare oppose them and the decrees of their lords. These knights are often most fiercely resisted by other paladins of this oath, who believe that the hell knights have wandered too far into darkness.

These Paladins share the following tenets:

• Your victory must be overwhelming, douse the flames of hope.
• Tolerate no dissent. Your word is law.
• Never be complacent in your rule, for forces will rise to challenge it.

Level 3: Oath Spells

The magic of your oath ensures you always have certain spells ready; when you reach a Paladin level specified in the Oath of Conquest Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Oath of Conquest Spells

Level 3: Conquering Presence

When you hit a creature, you can use your Channel Divinity to channel a terrifying presence. The target of the triggering attack must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have the Frightened condition until the start of your next turn. You can attempt to Frighten a creature again in this way once per turn when you hit a creature with an attack for the next minute.

Level 3: Guided Strike

You can use your Channel Divinity to guide attacks with supernatural accuracy. When you or a creature you can see within 30 feet of you misses a target with an attack roll, you can use your Channel Divinity to grant a +10 bonus to the roll, potentially turning the miss into a hit.

Level 7: Aura of Conquest

By your mere presence your foes are frozen in fear. If a creature has the Frightened condition and you are the source of its fear, its Speed is reduced to 0 while in your Aura of Protection, and that creature takes Psychic damage equal to half your Paladin level if it starts its turn there.

Level 15: Scornful Rebuke
