The Entomancer

While some find the idea of creepy crawly insects terrifying Entomancers find comfort in the structured hierarchy of the hive. Being cursed by or intentionally using a talisman infused with dark magic they use the power of the hive or individual insects as tools, weapons, or even armor.

Creating an Entomancer

Entomancers can telepathically command their minions. While creating an Entomancer you must decide how you wish to use your many-legged allies to your advantage. Do you make yourself the master of an insectoid army? Do you steal the powers of these amazing creatures to use as your own? Perhaps you cover yourself in armored insects and wield stinging or pinching creatures as weapons? Your connection to the hive is what drives your power. Think about whether you use the hive or become part of it. Are these creatures trusted allies or tools of destruction?

Quick Build

You can make an Entomancer quickly by following these suggestions. First, Charisma should be your highest ability score, followed by Constitution. Then, choose the Huanted One background.

Choosing your talisman

Pick a talisman that fits the theme you are intending for your Entomancer. For example, a entomancer planning to follow the Hivemaster phylum might choose the eye of the Giant Wasp Queen or perhaps a golden scarab from an ancient insect worshipping culture. The Talisman will be what you use to cast magic and control your minions so it is core to the background of your character.

Features

Talisman Abilities

Charisma is your ability modifier for your Entomancer abilities. You use your Charisma whenever an ability refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for an Entomancer ability you use and when making an attack roll with one.

Talisman You can use any Talisman as a focus for your Entomancer abilities.

Ability save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Ability attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Sting

At level one you learn to gather and control small insects with your talisman. As an bonus action roll a d6. Your roll corresponds to the number of small insects you are able to summon and control. For example if you roll a 5 then five wasps float around you at your command.

Then as an action you can send an insect to attack a creature. Make an attack roll using your Charisma modifier plus proficiency. On a successful hit the creature takes 1d4 necrotic damage. The number of insects you can attack with on your turn increases by one for each level after 2. You can attack with to 2 at level 3, 3 at level 4, and so on. Each attack has its own hit roll. At level 5 the dice used to summon insects increases to a d8.

Feed Essence

At second level, as a bonus action, you gain the ability to feed a portion of your life essence into your talisman allowing you to enhance one of your insects, swarms, or abilities. Once you use Feed Essence the number of times shown for your Entomancer level in the Feed Essence column of the Entomancer table you can continue to use Feed Essence but each time it is used you take 1d4 necrotic damage. Your Feed Essence will renew after each long rest.

Empowered Sting

In addition, at second level you can use Feed Essence to summon empowered insects for your Sting ability. These insects include Parasitic Fly, Dart Wasp, Fire Locust, and Burstworm

Parasitic Fly After a successful sting the Parasitic Fly attaches a larva to the host. At the end of the target's next turn the larva busts from the host dealing 1d4 piercing damage and creating a new Parasitic Fly which returns to the Entomancer.

Dart Wasp Attacks from the Dart Wasp are so fast and accurate they do not require an attack roll.

Fire Locust Successful attacks deal 1d6 fire damage.

Burstworm These sluggish worms burst when reaching the the target. The target and any creature within 5ft make make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save affected creatures take 1d4 acid damage.

Phylum

At 2nd level, you choose a Phylum or divergence in your Entomancer studies.

Mutation: Compound Vision

At 3rd level, your body begins to adopt insect-like features. Your eyes become compound allowing you to see a wider range of vision and helping you to avoid surprise attacks. In addition, you can see the body heat and other signs of creatures giving you advantage on perception checks to find creatures that are hiding up to 60 ft away.

Ability Score Increase

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. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Mutation: Hardened Mind

At 6th level your mind begins to behave more like an insect's. You have advantage on saving throws against fear and charm abilities.

Pheromone Trail

When you reach 7th level, you learn to track pheromone trails. You can always find your allies by following these invisible trails they’ve left behind. In addition, you can not become lost in any space you have been to before, always knowing the path you or your allies have taken. You also gain advantage on all survival checks and nature checks involving the determination of animal species.

Mutation: Insectoid Strength

At 11th level, you have developed the physical strength of ants. You gain advantage on strength and athletics checks, you count as two sizes larger for carrying capacity, and your speed is increased by 10 ft.

Mutation: Umber Gaze

At level 15 when a creature starts its turn within 30 feet of the you and is able to see the your eyes, the you can magically force it to make a DC 15 Charisma saving throw, unless you is incapacitated. On a failed saving throw, the creature can't take reactions until the start of its next turn and rolls a d8 to determine what it does during that turn. On a 1 to 4, the creature does nothing. On a 5 or 6, the creature takes no action but uses all its movement to move in a random direction. On a 7 or 8, the creature makes one melee attack against a random creature, or it does nothing if no creature is within reach. Unless surprised, a creature can avert its eyes to avoid the saving throw at the start of its turn. If the creature does so, it can't see the you until the start of its next turn, when it can avert its eyes again. If the creature looks at the you in the meantime, it must immediately make the save.

Mutation: Lethal Response

At level 17, your body has further been modified. As a reaction you can have your 10ft long scorpion-like tail whip out from a hidden place in your armor stinging an oncoming attacker. On a successful attack roll, the tail attack deals 1d6 piercing damage and 2d10 necrotic damage.

Hive Mind

When an Entomancer reaches level 18 you gain the ability Hive Mind allowing you to speak telepathically to party members within 120ft. This ability lasts 1 minute and can not be used again until you have taken a short rest.

Mutation: Indestructable Carapice

At level 20, your body has become near unkillable like a cockroach. Your AC increases by 2 and you regain 1d10 hit points each time you exit combat.

Entomancer Phylums

Phylum: Hivemaster

Some Entomancers find beauty and perfection in the structured hierarchy of an insect hive. Every member has purpose and follows orders exactly with speed and precision. These Entomancers choose to delve into the phylum of the Hivemaster, using the powers imbued in their talisman to take command of armies of potent insects.

Hivemaster Features

Insectoid Traps

At level two you learn several traps you can, as an action, set to ensnare or damage enemies. It takes a few moments for the insects to create a trap. The trap is completed by the start of your next turn but does not require any additional action to take effect.

Insect Mound- You create a soft patch of earth on the ground in a 5 ft area. Range 60ft. The first creature other than you that enter that area they must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature is attacked by stinging insects from the mound taking 4d4 necrotic damage. The ground in that area becomes difficult terrain until cleared, requiring at least 1 minute to clear by hand.

Web Snare- You summon a swarm of spiders to create a sticky patch of web on the ground in a 5ft area. Range 60ft. When a creature other than you enters that area they must make a strength saving throw. On a failed save, the creature becomes restrained as it gets tangled in the web. Each round, on its turn, the creature can repeat its strength saving throw.

Hollow Ground- Your insects hollow out the ground 10ft deep under a 5ft area. Range 60ft. When a creature steps into the area it must make a dexterity saving throw or fall through the thin ground into the trap. The creature takes 1d6 fall damage and is knocked prone. The ground in that area becomes difficult terrain until filled, requiring at least 1 minute to fill by hand.

Summon Swarm

At level 2, Hivemasters can use their talisman to summon a swarm of insects to aid them in battle. As an action, Hivemasters can summon Gnat Swarm, Army Ant Swarm, Mosquito Swarm, and Scarab Swarm. After a summoning, the swarm can be moved as a bonus action. Swarms last until destroyed, released, or another swarm is summoned. The skill check associated with most swarm tasks is Persuassion to determine whether you have the power to dominate your swarm and manipulate them with precision.
