Overview & Creation

Druids are those who’m have sworn covenants an fealty to nature itself, and are rewarded with magic and an animal shape-changing ability called Wild Shape. The most powerful druids are also rewarded with extended life, but at a cost. Druids are barred from the use of heavily manufactured metal items. While a druid might use a chunk of ore, or slagged metal given willingly by the earth, proper steel and bronze industries are anathema to the druidic mindset. Druids will go to great efforts to find wooden and bone equivalents to items, some druids even find the touch of metal burning or sickly unpleasant.

Class Features

Spellcasting

Drawing on the divine essence of nature itself, you can cast spells to shape that essence to your will. Your spells and abilities from from the Spirits of the Land and Nature.  

Spellcasting Focus

You can use a Druidic Spellcaster Foci as a focus for your druid spells.  

Cantrips

At 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice from the Druid Spell List. You learn additional druid cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Druid table.  

Preparing and Casting Spells

The Druid table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your druid spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these druid spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of druid spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Druid Spell List. When you do so, choose a number of Druid Spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your druid level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you are a 3rd-level druid, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Wisdom of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell Cure Wounds, you can cast it using a 1st-level or 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn’t remove it from your list of prepared spells. You can also change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of Druid Spells requires time spent in prayer and meditation: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.  

Spellcasting Ability

Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your druid spells, since your magic draws upon your devotion and attunement to nature. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a druid spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.   Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier  

Study Magic

You spend 10 minutes to prepare yourself to examine the pure magical energy of the Weave. For the next ten minutes after your preparations you can sense the faint aura of magic around visible creatures and objects within 30 feet of you. The aura tells you the spells school of magic and any noticeable source of magical energy. This ability can penetrate thin barriers, but it is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt.  

Ritual Casting

You can cast any rituals in the Druid Spell List, and ritual scrolls you transfer into your Holy Texts.  

Cantrip Versatility

You can replace a cantrip you know with another cantrip available to you on a long rest.  

Channel Nature

The magic of nature infuses you, and you gain the ability to channel that into various magical Effects. You start with two such effects, gaining a third from your Druidic Circle: Wild Shape, Wild Companion, and a third option granted by your Druidic Circle at 2nd level. When you use such an effect from this class, the DC equals your Druid spell save DC. You can use Channel Nature a number of times indicated by the Druid Class Table, regaining expended Channel Nature on a Long Rest.  

Wild Shape

You can use your action to magically assume the form of beasts native to your homeland, 'Shape of the Land' Wild Shape. You can stay in a beast shape for 30 minutes per druid level. You then revert to your normal form unless you expend another use Channel Nature. You can revert to your normal form earlier by using a bonus action on your turn. You automatically revert if you fall Unconscious, are Incapacitated, drop to 0 hit points, or die.  

Wild Companion

You gain the ability to summon a spirit that assumes an animal form: as an action, you can expend a use of your Channel Nature to cast the Find Familiar spell, without material components. When you cast the spell in this way, the familiar is a fey instead of a beast, the Familiar is cast at a level equal to your druid level divided by 4 (minimum 1), and the familiar disappears after your druid level x 30 minutes has ended.

When you reach 4th Level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two Ability Scores of your choice by 1.

At 13th level, you have learned how to rapidly shift out of form and back into it again. If you’re in a Wild Shape form, you can switch to your normal form as a Bonus Action, and you can then switch back into that Wild Shape form within the next minute as a Bonus Action. Neither switch expends a use of Wild Shape if you retain your previous health.  

Wild Resurgence

Beginning at 15th level, when you use your Channel Nature, primal magic radiates from you, allowing you to use two of your Channel Nature options with a single charge of Channel Nature.  

Beast Spells

Your familiar must be within 100 feet of you, and it must use its reaction to deliver the spell when you cast it. If the spell requires an attack roll, you use your attack modifier for the roll.  

Cinderground

Starting at 3rd Level, you learn to focus the destructive forces of the sun into the land around you. As a bonus action, you can magically summon a 20ft radius of Elemental Energy within 60ft of you for 1 minute. As a bonus action, you can move the area of affect up to 60 feet to a point you can see. The area is difficult terrain for creatures hostile to you. Additionally, when a creature in the area takes damage from an attack or spell for the first time on a turn, it takes an extra 1d4 fire damage. Flying creatures are unaffected by this aura. Starting at 10th level, the extra damage dealt increases to 1d6, and 1d8 at 14th level. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier, regaining expended uses on a Long Rest.  

Elemental Supremacy

At 6th level, your connection to the Elemental Planes is enhanced. When you are in Wild Shape, your form has aspects of Fire, like flames flickering from your fur. Additionally, you can cast Evocation spells through your Aspect of the Sun while in Wild Shape. When you cast spells through, replace the damage type with fire damage, and you can add 1d8 to the total damage.  

Cauterizing Flames

Beginning at 10th level, 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 use your 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, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.  

Blazing Revival

Starting at 14th level, 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 fall 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.

Circle Spells

Your mission to deny undeath and the touch of the Shadowfell grants you access to certain spells steeped in charm. You learn additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown at the bottom of the Druid Spell List. The spell counts as a Druid Spell for you, but it doesn’t count against the number of Druid Spells you know. These spells can’t be replaced when you gain a level in this class.  

Channel Nature: Winter’s Bane

Starting at 2nd level, you gain an additional use of your Channel Nature. As an action, you channel protective energies that appears as gently falling snow. Choose a point within 30 feet of yourself, and ethereal snow will fall for a moment in a 10-foot-radius sphere centered on that point. All undead creatures in that sphere must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it suffers the Frightened condition even if it was otherwise immune to these affects, for 1 minute, treating you as the Source of that fear. Additionally, at 10th level, roll a number of d8s equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of one die), and add the dice together. You can deal that much radiant or cold damage amongst those affected within the sphere.  

Harvest’s Scythe

Starting at 3rd level, you learn to unravel and harvest the life energy of other creatures. You can augment your spells to drain the life force from creatures. You have a pool of energy represented by a number of d6s equal to your druid level. When you roll damage for a spell, you can increase that damage by spending dice from the pool. You can spend a number of dice equal to half your druid level or less. Roll the spent dice and add them to one dice of damage as extra cold or radiant damage. If you kill one or more hostile creatures with a spell augmented in this way, you or an ally of your choice that you can see within 30 feet of you regains 2 hit points per die spent to increase the spell’s damage, or 5 hit points per die if at least one of the slain creatures was undead. You regain the expended dice when you finish a long rest.  

Speech Beyond the Grave

At 6th level, you gain the ability to reach beyond death’s veil in search of knowledge.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again for ten minutes.  

Watcher at the Threshold

At 10th level, you gain resistance to cold, necrotic and radiant damage. In addition, while you aren’t Incapacitated, any ally within 30 feet of you has advantage on death saving throws.
