### Circle of Poppies
Druids of the Circle of Poppies are experts at relieving pain. Drawing upon the many analgesics of nature, their magic bolsters allies in the face of dire stress, and lulls even the most belligerent of enemies into eternal sleep.
___
| Druid Level | Features |
| :----------:|:--------------------------------|
| 2nd | Earthly Bliss, Scent of Slumber |
| 6th | Field of Flowers |
| 10th | Enfeebling Lethargy |
| 14th | Rest of Eternity |
#### Earthly Bliss
*2nd-level Circle of Poppies feature*
___
You soothe injuries with a wave of relaxing pleasure. As an action, you can touch a willing creature to grant it the following benefits for 1 minute:
___
- The creature gains a number of temporary hit points equal to your druid level plus your Wisdom modifier.
- The creature can add 1d4 to any Constitution saving throw it makes.
___
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
#### Scent of Slumber
*2nd-level Circle of Poppies feature*
___
As a bonus action, you can expend a use of your Wild Shape feature to surround yourself in a narcotic haze that saps the will to fight. The form lasts for 10 minutes or until you are incapacitated or die.
When you activate this form, and as a bonus action on your subsequent turns while it lasts, you can choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of you. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. The target takes 1d8 psychic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. When you reach 10th level in this class, the damage increases to 2d8. If this damage reduces a target to 0 hit points, you can cause it to fall unconscious and stable.
#### Field of Flowers
*6th-level Circle of Poppies feature*
___
As an action, you can choose a point on the ground within 60 feet of you. A 20-foot-radius field of soothing poppies grows there for 10 minutes or until your concentration ends (as if you were concentrating on a spell).
A creature that enters your Field of Flowers for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there must make a Charisma saving throw against your spell save DC; a creature can choose to fail this saving throw if it wishes. On a failed save, it gains the effects of the *calm emotions* spell until the end of its next turn. A creature made indifferent in this way also has its speed halved.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest, unless you spend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it again.
:::::
#### Enfeebling Lethargy
*10th-level Circle of Poppies feature*
___
The narcotic properties of your magic dulls the ferocity of your foes. When a creature fails its save against your Scent of Slumber, any damage it deals before the end of your next turn is reduced by 1d8.
#### Rest of Eternity
*14th-level Circle of Poppies feature*
___
When you create your Field of Flowers, you can choose to enhance its potency. Each time a creature fails a save against your enhanced Field of Flowers, you can cause it to suffer one level of exhaustion. Once a creature reaches 6 levels of exhaustion, it falls asleep instead of dying, and can only be awoken by *greater restoration*, *heal*, or *wish*. Any levels of exhaustion caused by this feature go away once your Field of Flowers ends.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
