Psychomechanical Upgrades

6th-level Iron Gears feature

It is not enough for your body alone to be perfected; your mind, too, must be augmented. Choose one of the following upgrades.

Babylonic Speaker. You can read and speak all languages.

Cognito Filter. When a creature makes a statement, you can expend your reaction to force it to make a Charisma saving throw (DC = 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus.). On a failed save, you detect whether or not it was lying. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Infravisor. As an action, you can activate special lenses within your eyes, giving yourself darkvision to a distance of 60 feet for 1 minute. Within this distance, creatures are marked via their body heat, allowing even invisible creatures to be seen. Creatures that lack body heat, such as many undead, appear as blackened voids when sensed in this way. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Venting

10th-level Iron Gears feature

When you are affected by a spell that targets only yourself, you can attempt to flush it from your system as a reaction, making a Constitution saving throw against the caster’s spell save DC. On a success, you can force a creature within 5 feet to be the target of the spell instead.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Heart of Iron

14th-level Iron Gears feature

An additional heart is installed within your body, helping to maintain your system’s upgrades as well as storing a potent mixture of chemicals for times of great need. When you would hit 0 Hit Points or be exposed to an effect that would kill you, you instead regain half of your maximum Hit Points, as your iron heart automatically activates its emergency protocols. For 1 minute afterwards, you also gain the following benefits:

• You have advantage on all attack rolls and saving throws.
• You have resistance to all damage types.
• Your AC increases by 5.
• You are immune to the following conditions: charmed, exhaustion, frightened, incapacitated, poisoned, paralyzed, stunned, and unconscious.

After this effect’s duration expires, you gain 3 levels of exhaustion, which cannot be cured in any way other than completing a long rest. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again for 7 days.

From Bad to Worse

9th-level Guerilla Rogue feature

Your traps provide a perfect opportunity with which to strike. Your Sneak Attack feature deals 2d6 additional damage to a creature that took damage or failed a saving throw against one of your traps within the last turn.

Paranoia

13th-level Guerilla Rogue feature

A fake trap can sow paranoia just as easily as a real one. If one of your Traps fails to affect any creatures, you can use your reaction to reveal that it was a fake, regaining a use of your Traps.

I’m Not Trapped in here with You, You’re Trapped in here with Me!

17th-level Guerilla Rogue feature

Experience in dealing with your own traps allows you to apply the same principles to incoming effects. When you succeed on a saving throw, you can choose to be entirely unaffected by the effect, and instead force a creature within 30 feet to make the same saving throw.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Magic Mirror

3rd-level Lightwright Artificer feature

You gain a number of Magic Mirrors equal to your proficiency bonus. As a bonus action, you can set a Magic Mirror to hover around a creature within 30 feet of yourself. Each Magic Mirror has an AC of 10 and 1 Hit Point, and occupies the same space as the creature it hovers around. While a mirror is hovering around a creature, you can use the following effects:

Distracting Glare. When the target would make an attack, you can use your reaction to make the Magic Mirror flare with light, imposing disadvantage on the attack roll.

Ancient Spark

6th-level Dragonstone Barbarian feature

As an action, you can exhale a 30 foot cone of elemental energy. Creatures within this area are forced to make a Dexterity saving throw (DC = 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus), taking 8d6 fire, cold, lightning, poison, or acid damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success.

You can use this feature once per long rest. In addition, you gain an additional use of this feature each time you use your Dragon Install. Any excess uses are lost when you finish a long rest.

Overwhelming Emotions

10th-level Dragonstone Barbarian feature

When you would fail a saving throw, you can use your reaction to allow the Dragonstone’s stored emotions to overwhelm you, causing you to succeed instead. When you do so, creatures of your choice within 30 feet are forced to make a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus). Creatures that fail this saving throw become frightened of you until the start of your next turn.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Dragonforce

14th-level Dragonstone Barbarian feature

At 14th level, your body further synchronises with your Dragonstone, allowing you to channel its power to the limits of your body. When you use your Dragon Install, you also gain the following benefits:

• You gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed.
• You can become one size larger than normal.
• Your attacks have advantage against other dragons.

Subclass Features

Refined Magic

2nd-level Arcanist Wizard feature

At 2nd level, your understanding of the Weave allows you to empower spells in accordance with known principles. When you cast a spell using a spell slot of 1st level or higher, you can choose to empower it, causing the spell to be cast as though you expended a spell slot of one level higher. After you use this feature, you can’t cast spells other than cantrips until the end of your next turn.

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.

Metamagic Scholar

6th-level Arcanist Wizard feature

At 6th level, your forays into further understanding the nature of magic have borne fruit, allowing you to twist spells in new and unforseen ways.

You learn two Metamagic options of your choice from the sorcerer class. You can use only one Metamagic option on a spell when you cast it, unless the option says otherwise. Whenever you reach a level that grants the Ability Score Improvement feature, you can replace one of these Metamagic options with another one from the sorcerer class. In addition, you can use Intelligence instead of Charisma for any Metamagic option that specifies Charisma.

To fuel your metamagic, you gain a number of sorcery points to spend on Metamagic equal to half your Wizard level. These points are added to any sorcery points you have from another source but can be used only on Metamagic. You regain all spent sorcery points when you finish a long rest.

Flexible Casting

10th-level Arcanist Wizard feature

At 10th level, your framework of magic solidifies, allowing you to cast with far greater flexibility. As an action, you can expend a spell slot to cast two spells with a casting time of 1 action and a combined spell level equal to the level of the expended spell slot. For instance, you could expend a 4th-level spell slot in order to cast the fireball spell at 3rd level and the magic missile spell at 1st level.

Immutable Spellwork

14th-level Arcanist Wizard feature

At 14th level, you can seal a spell within yourself, giving it a permanency normally considered impossible. When you cast a Wizard spell with a duration of 1 minute or longer that targets only yourself, you can expend a spell slot of a level two or more times greater than the spell’s level. When you do so, the spell lasts until it is dispelled, and if it required concentration, it no longer requires concentration. However, you no longer regain the spell slot spent for this feature when you finish a long rest.

You can be affected by multiple spells cast in this way at a time, but as usual you can only be affected by one instance of a spell at a time. For instance, you can spend a 6th-level spell slot on a permanent haste and a 2nd-level spell slot on a permanent longstrider, but you can’t have multiple instances of longstrider no matter how many times the spell is cast.

You can dispel any spell that you cast in this way at any time during your turn (no action required). When you do so, you also regain the ability to regain the spell slot spent for this feature when you finish a long rest.

It’s All In Your Head

1st-level Psyche Domain feature

When a creature within 30 feet would fail a saving throw against an effect that would deal both damage and impose an additional effect on a failed saving throw, you can use your reaction to negate the additional effect.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (min: 1), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Channel Divinity: Mental Screening

2nd-level Psyche Domain feature

As an action, you can expend your Channel Divinity in order to study the ways a mind is touched by others. You can detect if a creature within 30 feet of yourself is affected by mind-manipulating effects, such as the message, command, or suggestion spells. In addition, if the effect’s creator is also within 30 feet, you see a thin line connecting the two creatures, as well as whether the effect is unidirectional or affects both parties equally.

Total Recall

6th-level Psyche Domain feature

Your memory sharpens, enhanced by your domain’s power. You gain an eidetic memory, allowing you to recall events within the past year with perfect clarity. In addition, your memory cannot be altered unwillingly.

Potent Spellcasting

8th-level Psyche Domain feature

Starting at 8th level, you add your Wisdom modifier to the damage you deal with any cleric cantrip.

Faster Than Thought

17th-level Psyche Domain feature

As a reaction to any event that you can perceive, you can briefly force your mind to process information with such speed that time appears to have stopped. For one minute by your perception, all other objects and creatures appear frozen in place, allowing you to think, study, and even cast spells without interruption. At the end of this time, or if one of your actions affects a creature other than you or an object being worn or carried by someone other than you, time flows normally again, and you become stunned until the end of your next turn.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Maintain Authority

7th-level Big Red Button Paladin feature

Even in dire situations, you must remain steadfast; those around you cannot afford to lose hope. At the start of your turn, if you are below half your maximum Hit Points, you impose disadvantage on the first attack made by creatures of your choice within 10 feet of yourself each turn.

At 18th level, this radius increases to 30 feet.

Deperate Measures

15th-level Big Red Button Paladin feature

Mourning for the lost is a luxury that you cannot afford in a crisis. You gain a bonus to your AC, attack rolls, and saving throws equal to the number of friendly creatures within 30 feet that have been reduced to 0 Hit Points within the last minute.

Let Them Fight

20th-level Big Red Button Paladin feature

It is time. You can only hope that your preparations have been enough.

As an action, you can press the Big Red Button, unleashing a terrible wail which can be heard up to 1 mile away. As a confirmation measure, The Big Red Button must be pressed continuously for 1 minute in order to activate. When The Big Red Button activates, the following effects occur:

• All creatures within 120 feet of yourself take radiant damage equal to twice your maximum Hit Points. This damage cannot be reduced or resisted in any way.

• You die. Any affect that would prevent your death is ignored, and your soul is obliterated. You cannot be resurrected by any way, including by means of the wish spell or divine intervention.

• The Tarrasque appears at your former location. You have no influence over its behavior; the Tarrasque is hostile to all lifeforms, and will attack whatever it perceives to be the biggest threat. In addition, the Tarrasque receives an increase in maximum Hit Points equal to twice your Hit Point maximum, as well as a breath weapon which can be used in place of a bite attack, dealing 40d6 (140) radiant damage to creatures in a 120 foot line, 10 feet wide. The DC of this breath weapon is equal to your Paladin spell save DC.

With the power of True Love’s Kiss, Snow White coughed up the apple, the seven dwarves were overjoyed, and everyone lived happily ever after.

Everyone, that is, except for the witch.

Nobody can say for sure why the witch disappeared after cursing that apple. Perhaps the vitriol of hatred overwhelmed her heart. Perhaps she resigned herself to never being The Fairest Of Them All.

Or perhaps she placed her soul into an apple with an intent to worm her way into a slumbering princess’s body.

As for the apple, well. Nobody cares what happens to that thing. Who would care, when she no longer can call herself The Fairest Of Them All?

Forest’s Curse

1st-level Chlorophyte Sorcerer feature

As a bonus action, you can burst with vines, wrapping around your body as well as the earth around you. You gain the following benefits, depending on your current Hit Points:

Green Stem. If you are at or above half of your maximum hit points (rounded down), the vines entangle hostile creatures. The area in a radius of 15 feet around yourself counts as difficult terrain for creatures of your choice. In addition, if you are hit by an attack from a creature within this area, you can use your reaction to force it to make a Strength saving throw or be restrained until the end of your next turn.

Ebony Stem. If you are below half of your maximum hit points (rounded down), the vines slash at hostile creatures with thorns. Creatures of your choice take 1d4 slashing damage for every 5 feet they move within a radius of 15 feet around yourself. In addition, if you are hit by an attack from a creature within this area, you can use your reaction to burst with spines, making a melee spell attack against the attacker. On a hit, the creature takes 2d6 piercing damage.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (min: 1), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Nettle Burst

6th-level Chlorophyte Sorcerer feature

When you cast a spell that affects an area on the ground, you can spend a number of sorcery points up to half your proficiency bonus (rounded down) to cause thorns to erupt from the earth in that area, dealing 1d6 piercing damage to each creature in that area for each sorcery point spent.

Witchwood Heart

14th-level Chlorophyte Sorcerer feature

When you use your Nettle Burst, you gain temporary hit points equal to half the piercing damage dealt to one affected creature.

Crimson Corruption

18th-level Chlorophyte Sorcerer feature

Your Forest’s Curse strengthens, twisting and corrupting further.

While you are affected by Green Stem, you gain the benefits of the Dodge action.

While you are affected by Ebony Stem, you have advantage on all attack rolls.

Swords to Plowshares

10th-level Uprising Warlock feature

The instruments of power and coercion will not last forever. When you would be the target of a weapon attack, you can use your reaction to curse the attacker’s weapon, forcing them to make a Charisma saving throw against your Warlock spell save DC. On a failed save, the weapon takes a -1 penalty to its attack and damage rolls as it begins withering and rusting away. This saving throw is repeated at the start of each of the attacker’s turns, with a cumulative penalty for each failed save. If the creature succeeds on three of these saving throws (which need not be in a row), the effect ends. If it fails on three of these saving throws, the weapon becomes unusable for 24 hours, breaking entirely if it is nonmagical.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (min: 1), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

No War?

14th-level Uprising Warlock feature

Imagine a world with no borders, no struggles, nothing to kill or die for. That world is not this world, not yet – but it could be. As an action, you can force all hostile creatures that can see or hear you within 30 feet to make a Wisdom saving throw. Creatures that fail this save are charmed by you until the end of your next turn. The charmed creature’s speed drops to 0, and the creature is incapacitated and visibly dazed.

On subsequent turns, you can use your action to maintain this effect, extending its duration until the end of your next turn. However, the effect ends if you move more than 5 feet away from the creature, if the creature can neither see nor hear you, or if the creature takes damage.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Bonus Proficiencies

3rd-level Ruins Druid feature

Also at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in the Arcana and History skills.

Ancientpower

6th-level Ruins Druid feature

When you cast a spell of 1st level or higher with a casting time of 1 action, you can choose to delay it, holding its energy in reserve to fuel its power with the flow of time. A spell cast in this way counts as having expended a spell slot of 1 level higher at the start of each turn while it’s held in reserve, to a maximum of 5th level.

Perseverance

10th-level Ruins Druid feature

At the start of your turn, if you are transformed into an Ancient Construct, you can end one effect on yourself that is causing you to be charmed, frightened, restrained, or paralyzed (no action required).

When you use this feature, you can’t cast spells other than cantrips until the end of your turn.

Weight of Time

14th-level Ruins Druid feature

When you are damaged by a creature you can see within 60 feet of yourself, you can use your reaction to share with it the burden of each passing moment.

The target’s speed is halved, it takes a -2 penalty to AC and Dexterity saving throws, and it can’t use reactions. On its turn, it can use either an action or a bonus action, not both. Regardless of the creature’s abilities or magic items, it can’t make more than one melee or ranged attack during its turn.

If the creature attempts to cast a spell with a casting time of 1 action, roll a d20. On an 11 or higher, the spell doesn’t take effect until the creature’s next turn, and the creature must use its action on that turn to complete the spell. If it can’t, the spell is wasted.

At the end of each of its turns, the target can make a Wisdom saving throw, ending the effect on a success.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Tabula Rasa

1st-level Rebirth Domain feature

As an action, you can change a willing creature’s name. Legal documents are automatically changed to reflect the new name, and its previous name is forgotten. However, after 24 hours, any actions, memories, or reputations accrued by the creature under its previous name transfer over to the new identity.

After a creature is affected by this effect, it cannot change its name in this way again for 24 hours.

Detect Persona

1st-level Rebirth Domain feature

As an action, you can detect creatures within 30 feet that are disguised or transformed with spells or magical effects. This doesn’t reveal creatures that are hidden from divination magic. This also does not grant any information on how the creature is disguised or transformed, nor does it hint at the creature’s identity or intentions.

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.

Channel Divinity: Reshape

2nd-level Rebirth Domain feature

You grant a willing creature the ability to assume a new form. For the next 24 hours, the chosen creature can use its action to change what it looks like, including its height, weight, facial features, sound of its voice, hair length, coloration, and distinguishing characteristics, if any. The chosen creature can make itself appear as a member of another race, though none of its statistics change. It also cannot appear as a creature of a different size, and its basic shape stays the same; if the chosen creature is bipedal, it can’t use this effect to become quadrupedal, for instance.

Potent Spellcasting

8th-level Rebirth Domain feature

Starting at 8th level, you add your Wisdom modifier to the damage you deal with any cleric cantrip.

In The Image of Creation

17th-level Rebirth Domain feature

Spells you cast that restore a creature to life, such as resurrection and raise dead, no longer grant a penalty to the target. In addition, you can cast the reincarnate spell without expending a spell slot. When you do so, the target does not need to be dead, and can choose what form it takes, including its race. The target can even choose races not normally available to reincarnate into.

Backtrack

9th-level Politician Rogue feature

Ignore what everyone else’s notes say – what you speak is the truth! As an action, you can make a Charisma (Deception) check, contested by a creature’s Wisdom (Insight) check. This check can be made against any number of creatures that can hear you and share a language with you. In addition, you make this check with advantage if it involves a campaign promise. On a success, you redefine what you’ve said, reshaping peoples’ memories to forget what was previously said.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

That’s Politics!

13th-level Politician Rogue feature

A backstab can be just as effective for a statesman as it is on the battlefield. Creatures that are friendly to you take 2d6 additional damage from your Sneak Attack. In addition, creatures affected by your Incitement feature are charmed by you for the duration.

Et Tu, Brutus?

17th-level Politician Rogue feature

When you use your Sneak Attack feature, any number of creatures within 5 feet of your target can make a melee weapon attack against the same target.

If it is the Ides of March, you have unlimited uses of this feature. Otherwise, once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Pedal to the Metal

The era of battalions, phalanxes, and formations is over. What you and this new battlefield share in common is a singular need – a need for speed.

Tools of the Trade

3rd-level Rider Artificer feature

When you take this subclass at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in smith’s tools and land vehicles. If you already have this tool proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of artisan’s tools of your choice.

Rider Spells

3rd-level Rider Artificer feature

Starting at 3rd level, you always have certain spells prepared after you reach particular levels in this class, as shown in the Rider Spells table. These spells count as artificer spells for you, but they don’t count against the number of artificer spells you prepare.

Personal Ride

3rd-level Rider Artificer feature

As a bonus action, you can summon your Personal Ride, a vehicle specialized for your use. This vehicle might appear as a motorcycle, a pair of boots with wings, or even an animal; work with your DM to determine an appropriate appearance for your Personal Ride. Regardless, your Personal Ride acts as part of yourself, and while your Personal Ride is summoned, your movement speed increases by 10 feet. This additional movemenet further increases to 15 feet at 5th level, 20 feet at 11th level, and 25 feet at 17th level.

In addition, when you summon your Personal Ride and as a bonus action afterwards, you can take the Dash action. When you do so, you can make a melee spell attack against a creature that you move within 5 feet of, dealing 1d6 force damage on a hit.

Momentum

5th-level Rider Artificer feature

Your Personal Ride’s dash attack deals 2d6 force damage instead of 1d6. In addition, when you attack a creature with your Personal Ride, you don’t provoke opportunity attacks from that creature for the rest of the turn, whether you hit or not.

Shift Gear

9th-level Rider Artificer feature

You ignore difficult terrain while mounted on your Personal Ride. In addition, while mounted on your Personal Ride, you can move up, down, and across vertical surfaces and upside down along ceilings. However, if you end your turn on such a surface, you fall.

Ride or Die!

15th-level Rider Artificer feature

When you would be within the area of an effect that requires you to make a saving throw, you can use your reaction to move up to half your movement speed. If this movement causes you to leave the effect’s area, you automatically succeed on the saving throw.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Twenty Thousand Leagues

The skies are just as forbidden to those who walk the earth as it is for those who drift along the waves. But where the depths of the earth forbid entry, the sea invites its dwellers to delve into the unknown.

Sea’s Blessing

3rd-level Wavecrest Skywatcher feature

Just as pegasus knights fly with the blessing of the skies, the oceans have gifted you with the ability to traverse the seas. While mounted on your Bonded Mount, you gain a swimming speed equal to your walking speed, and can breathe underwater. In addition, your Bonded Mount can also take the appearance of a creature with a swimming speed; work with your DM to determine an appropriate appearance, or alter your existing mount’s appearance to fit an aquatic creature.

Riptide

3rd-level Wavecrest Skywatcher feature

When you take the Dash or Disengage actions, you can summon a spray of water, dealing 1d6 cold damage to creatures within 5 feet of your starting position. If you use this feature within 5 feet of a body of water large enough to swim in, this damage is increased by your Charisma modifier (min: 1).

Ocean’s Call

6th-level Wavecrest Skywatcher feature

At 6th level, the sea allows you to share its blessing with your allies. As an action, you can grant up to 10 willing creatures within 30 feet the ability to breathe underwater for 1 hour. Affected creatures also retain their normal mode of respiration.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a use of your Rallying Command to use it again.

In addition, you learn a new Rallying Command.

Rally Tide: You summon the force of a tsunami to send your foes into disarray. Creatures of your choice within 30 feet are forced to make a Strength saving throw. A creature can willingly fail this saving throw. Creatures that fail this save are forcibly moved 10 feet horizontally in a direction of your choice, and are forced to release any creatures that they have grappled or restrained.

Push and Pull

10th-level Wavecrest Skywatcher feature

Once per turn, when you damage a creature with your Riptide, you can force it to make a Strength saving throw or be forcibly moved 5 feet in a direction of your choice. If you use this feature within 5 feet of a body of water large enough to swim in, the creature has disadvantage on this saving throw.

Waterspout

14th-level Wavecrest Skywatcher feature

The sea, too, can yearn to reach for the sky. While mounted on your Bonded Mount, you can use your action to summon a whirl of ethereal water in a 10 foot radius centered on yourself. This cylinder’s height is equal to your altitude, to a maximum of 100 feet, and travels with you, sucking up Medium and smaller objects that aren’t secured to anything and that aren’t worn or carried by anyone.

A creature must make a Dexterity saving throw the first time on a turn that it enters the waterspout or that the waterspout enters its space, including when the waterspout first appears. A creature takes 6d6 bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. In addition, a Large or smaller creature that fails the save must succeed on a Strength saving throw or become restrained in the waterspout until the waterspout ends.

When a creature starts its turn restrained by the waterspout, the creature is pulled 5 feet higher inside it, unless the creature is at the top. A restrained creature moves with the waterspout and falls when the effect ends, unless the creature has some means to stay aloft.

A restrained creature can use an action to make a Strength or Dexterity check against your Skywatcher save DC. If successful, the creature is no longer restrained by the waterspout and is hurled 30 feet away from it in a random direction.

The waterspout lasts for 1 minute, or until you are incapacitated or otherwise not mounted on your Bonded Mount.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Eye Beam Table

Patient Zero. As an action, you can use your Channel Divinity to suppress the effects of one spell, disease, or poison affecting a creature for up to 24 hours. For this duration, the target will not feel or show symptoms of their affliction; however, this effect does not prevent the proliferation or progression of the affliction, and makes any saving throws with disadvantage. During this time, the target remains contagious if they were before, and when the suppression ends, any damage or conditions that would have been caused by the effect immediately occur. You can end this suppression early as an action.

Spellplague. You can use your Channel Divinity to become a reservoir of plague by performing a special ritual. You conduct this ritual over the course of 24 hours, during which you cannot sleep. After completing this ritual, you gain the following benefits:

When you successfully prevent, end, or suppress the effects of a disease on yourself or another creature, you can choose to place it into incubation, storing the effect within yourself.

When you succeed on a saving throw against a spell that targets only yourself, you can expend your Channel Divinity and your reaction to turn the spell into a disease, placing it into incubation in the same way.

When you hit a creature with an attack, you can expend a spell slot and one of your stored diseases, dealing 2d6 additional poison damage to the target plus an additional 1d6 for each level above 1st. On a failed save, you can infect the target with one of the diseases stored within yourself, lasting for the same duration as the effect that created it. If the disease was derived from a spell, you must expend a spell slot of equal or greater level to the spell, and instead cast the spell on the target, using your Paladin save DC. If the spell required concentration, it lasts until the end of its full duration. The disease then leaves incubation, and is no longer stored.

You can have up to one spell and a number of non-spell diseases equal to your proficiency bonus in incubation at a time. If you attempt to store another, the one stored earliest dissipates.

After this ritual is performed, it can only be reversed by voluntarily remaining in isolation for a period of 1 week. If you are within 10 feet of another humanoid for over 1 hour during this time, this quarantine fails, and must be restarted in order to take effect.

If any diseases are in incubation during the reversal of this ritual, you suffer each of their effects in sequence throughout the duration of your quarantine. When the quarantine is completed, any diseases that were stored within you are purged from your system.

Black Plague

20th-level Pestilence Paladin feature

At 20th level, all resistance fails against your onslaught. As an action, you can transform into a harbinger of death, the emperor of all maladies. For 1 minute, you gain the following benefits:

• Creatures of your choice within 30 feet of yourself have disadvantage on Constitution checks and saving throws.
• Any diseases transmitted you during this time cannot be cured for at least 1 month. Only a Wish spell or divine intervention can bypass this duration.
• When you attempt to infect a creature with a disease stored within yourself, all creatures within 1 mile must make the same saving throw. You can choose any number of creatures you can see to be unaffected by it.

Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

Sell It!

6th-level Silver Screen Monk feature

Who would evver want to watch someone who beats all their opponents in one punch? Making sure everyone knows your enemies are strong only makes it more impressive when you overcome them!

Your special effects may be good, but you can’t let things get too far off-script!

Dressed for the Occasion

Study the Blade

7th-level Master of Arms Fighter feature

While others were out adventuring, you were… also out adventuring. But that didn’t stop you from also studying the blade. Weapons and armors maintained via your Refined Armaments feature count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage, as well as for the purpose of effects that would degrade nonmagical equipment.

Masterwork Refinements

  Crafty. This armor is designed to quickly detach and reattach, stifling attempts to keep it down. As an action, the wearer can end the Restrained and Grappled conditions on itself.

Dazzling. This armor flashes and flares with light, making it difficult to pin down. When the wearer is hit by an attack, it can use its reaction to move 5 feet in a direction of its choice. This movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks.

Fortified. This armor is designed for maximum durability. Bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage the wearer takes is reduced by 3.

Inexorable. This weapon’s attacks cannot be avoided, only mitigated. On a miss, the target takes damage equal to the wielder’s Strength or Dexterity modifier.

Inspired. This weapon is COOL AS HELL. Once on each of its turns, when the wielder scores a critical hit, it can take an additional Action, just because it’s that cool.

Nimble This weapon can be drawn in the blink of an eye. The wielder gains a +5 bonus to initiative while this weapon is on its person. In addition, on its first turn in combat, the wielder can take an additional Action, which can be used only to take the Attack (one weapon attack only), Dash, Disengage, Hide, or Use an Object action.

Paragon. This weapon is designed to be superior to others of the same type. Attacks made with this weapon have advantage against a creature wielding a weapon of the same weapon type.

Reflective Finish. This item’s surface is polished to a mirror sheen, warding off spells. When a creature wielding this weapon or wearing this armor would be affected by a spell, it can use its reaction to attempt to deflect the spell, making a weapon attack against the caster’s save DC. On a hit, the spell’s effect is negated. Once this ability is successfully used, it cannot be used again, unless the reflective finish is reapplied during a long rest.

Tempered. This armor is designed to endure damage. The wearer has resistance to a damage type, chosen when you grant this Masterwork Refinement.

Underdog. This weapon is designed to remain reliable even in the most dire situations. When an attack using this weapon would be made with disadvantage, the wielder instead rolls 3 dice and removes both the highest and the lowest.

Hands of a Legend

18th-level Master of Arms Fighter feature

In the right hands, any weapon can stand equal to a legend. The bonus to attack and damage rolls for nonmagical weapons maintained via your Refined Armaments feature increases to +3, and the bonus to AC for nonmagical armors maintained via your Refined Armaments feature increases to +3.

These bonuses now also apply to magical weapons and armors; however, if the item already has a bonus to attack and damage rolls or AC, only the highest bonus applies.

This version of the class was published as part of the Subclasseptember 2023 challenge, which is preserved in its published form here. The most updated version of the Wildheart class can be found HERE: https://homebrewery.naturalcrit.com/share/d8wZAwTaP0zn.

The Wildheart (previously called the Beastshifter, previously called the Shifter) is intended as a more customizable sidegrade to the Barbarian, sporting similar damage and durability but far more choice and utility.

We don’t talk about Moon Druid. But because they’re so closely related, let’s talk about it anyways.

Moon Druid is obviously overtuned. At low levels, it outclasses just about any martial in both damage output and durability, having the equivalent of Extra Attack far earlier, and if it goes down you can just become a bear again. Twice per short rest. That would be excessive even without also having an entire full caster’s repertoire to back it up.

It’s also exceedingly complicated, focing a player to look through the entire Monster Manual for choices that aren’t nearly as numerous as they seem at first glance. For any given level there’s only a handful of viable choices.

Then at high levels you completely abandon that and become an elemental instead. Like, cool, but if I wanted to play as an elemental why couldn’t I do that from level 2 and have actual scaling?

The intent of this class is to create a niche for such a playstyle while avoiding thematic pitfalls and maintaining an appropriate budget for such abilities throughout the game. The Wildheart brings transformation to the front and center of a character’s playstile, rather than tacking it on as an afterthought, or worse yet sacrificing it to fuel completely unrelated abilities.

Were you perhaps adopted by a clan of wolves? Maybe you were born into a tribe of similarly gifted individuals, or perhaps your existence is unique even amongst those who commune with the wild.

Quick Build

You can make a Wildheart quickly by following these suggestions. First, make Strength or Dexterity your highest ability score, depending on what weapons you want to focus on. Make Constitution your next-highest ability score, followed by Wisdom. Second, choose the Outlander background.

Class Features

As a Wildheart, you gain the following class features.

Hit Points

• Hit Dice: 1d12 per Wildheart level
• Hit Points at 1st Level: 12 + your Constitution modifier
• Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d12 (or 7) + your Constitution modifier per Wildheart level after 1st

Proficiencies

• Armor: Light armor, medium armor, shields (wildhearts will not wear armor or use shields made of metal)

• Weapons: Simple weapons, scimitars

• Saving Throws: Strength, Constitution

• Skills: Choose two from Animal Handling, Athletics, Insight, Intimidation, Nature, Perception, Stealth, and Survival

Equipment

You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:

• (a) a scimitar or (b) any simple melee weapon
• (a) a wooden shield or (b) any simple weapon
• (a) leather armor or (b) scale mail crafted from bone; regardless of your choice, these armors are crafted to also fit your Major and Minor Forms.
• an explorer’s pack

Wild Incarnation

1st-level Wildheart feature

As a Wildheart, your connection to animal spirits grants you the ability to assume several beast forms: a powerful, combat-oriented Major Form, and a utility-oriented Minor Form. You can transform into either of these beast forms as a bonus action.

While you are transformed into either of these forms, the following rules apply:

• When you transform, you gain a number of temporary hit points, natural weapons, and other bonuses, depending on the beast. If you take damage that would exceed your remaining temporary hit points while transformed, you must make a Constitution saving throw. The DC equals 10 or half the excess damage you take, whichever number is higher. On a failed save, you revert to your normal form. As long as the excess damage doesn’t reduce your normal form to 0 hit points, you aren’t knocked unconscious.

• Your retain your alignment, personality, and ability scores. You also retain all of your skill and saving throw proficiencies.

• You can’t cast spells, and your ability to speak or take any action that requires hands is limited to the capabilities of your beast form. Transforming doesn’t break your concentration on a spell you’ve already cast, however, or prevent you from taking actions that are part of a spell, such as call lightning, that you’ve already cast.

• You retain the benefit of any features from your class, race, or other source and can use them if the new form is physically capable of doing so. You also retain any of your special senses, such as darkvision.

• You choose whether your equipment falls to the ground in your space, merges into your new form, or is worn by it. Worn equipment functions as normal, but the DM decides whether it is practical for the new form to wear a piece of equipment, based on the creature’s shape and size. Nonmagical equipment doesn’t change size or shape to match the new form, and any equipment that the new form can’t wear must either fall to the ground or merge with it. Equipment that merges with the form has no effect until you leave the form.

Major Form

1st-level Wildheart feature

You gain access to one of the Major Forms listed below. Different Major Forms have access to different abilities, and use your Wildheart level and your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places.

When you gain access to a Major Form, you can choose the appearance of this beast form. Regardless of your choice, it retains your size, and bears primal markings, indicating its mystical origin.

You can stay in a Major Form for a number of hours equal to your wildheart level. You then revert to your normal form unless you expend another use of this feature. You can revert to your normal form earlier by using a bonus action on your turn. You automatically revert if you fall unconscious, drop to 0 hit points, or die.

You can use this feature twice. You gain additional uses as you gain levels in this class, and you regain expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.

Ram. Your Strength modifier + your proficiency bonus to hit. 5 foot reach, natural melee weapon. On a hit, this attack deals bludgeoning damage equal to 2d8 + your Strength modifier.

Form of the Reaver. The Reaver is a beast of fearsome claws and ferocious instincts. When you transform in this way, you gain temporary hit points equal to 4x your Wildheart level. When you hit a creature with an attack after moving 10 or more feet in a straight line, the attack deals 1d6 additional damage. In addition, you gain access to the following natural weapon:

Claw. Your Strength or Dexterity modifier + your proficiency bonus to hit. 5 foot reach, natural melee weapon. On a hit, this attack deals slashing damage equal to 2d6 + your Strength or Dexterity modifier. This weapon has the Finesse property.

Rend. Your Strength or Dexterity modifier + your proficiency bonus to hit. 5 foot reach, natural melee weapon.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace your choice of Minor Form with a different choice available to you. At 5th level, you can choose a creature that has a swimming speed, and at 9th level you can choose a creature that has a flying speed. When you transform in this way, you do not expend a use of your Wild Incarnation.

Form of the Minor Beast. You gain temporary hit points equal to your Wildheart level, and your size changes to Small. In addition, you can take the Hide and Search actions as a bonus action in this form. However, if you lose all of your temporary hit points while in this form, you revert to your original form and are unable to access your Minor Form until you finish a long rest. In addition, you cannot attack in this form.

Natural Weapons

1st-level Wildheart feature

Even without the full transformation of a Major Form, you are no helpless prey. You grow a natural weapon, such as claws, horns, or hooves. Your natural weapons count as unarmed strikes and deal 1d6 bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage (as appropriate to the natural weapon you chose). Your natural weapons can be further enhanced by your Bloodline Gifts, which might modify a natural weapon or grant access to a new one.

Bloodline Gifts

At 2nd level, you gain four Bloodline Gifts of your choice. When you gain certain Wildheart levels, you gain additional Bloodline Gifts of your choice, as shown in the Bloodling Gifts column of the Wildheart table. A level prerequisite refers to your level in this class.

Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the Bloodline Gifts you know and replace it with another Bloodline Gift that you are eligible for.

As long as the creature is on the same plane of existence as you, it can use its action on subsequent turns to maintain this connection, extending the duration until the end of its next turn.
