- Ambassador's Set (Cost 91 gp):[ Longsword, shortbow with 20 arrows, padded leather, diplomat's pack, violin]

## Art Speciality

[Starting at 1st level, any musical instrument that you have proficiency with counts as a spell focus for the purposes of spellcasting. Although spells can be cast without these instruments, only targets that are able to perceive your performance can benefit from this feature. Whenever you finish a rest, choose one of the following as your Art Specialty.]{.c6 .c17}

Percussion (Casabas, Castanets, Drums, Maracas).[ Any instrument played by being struck or scraped (either by other instruments or against each other) qualifies as a percussion instrument. When you cast a bard spell from the sound school using a percussion instrument as your spell focus, double the spell\'s range. A sound spell that has a range of Touch increases its range to 30 feet.]

String Instruments (Dulcimer, Harp, Lute, Lyre, Violin).[ String instruments are played by plucking and twanging strings. When using a string instrument as a spell focus, whenever you cast a bard spell from the movement or teleportation school, you can target an additional creature within 15 feet of you.]

Visual (Calligraphy, Dance, Light Manipulation, Shapes).[ There are many ways to undertake a visual performance, whether through illustration, illusion magic, or legerdemain. When using visual art as a spell focus, whenever you cast a bard spell, you can make one ally that can see you the point of origin of that spell. You must be able to see any targets of the spell.]

Voice (Humming, Insults, Oration, Singing).[ When using this musical art as a spell focus, you have advantage on checks made to maintain concentration on a bard spell.]

[Wind Instruments (Bagpipes, Flute, Horn, Ocarina, Trombone).][ Any instrument played by passing air through it qualifies as a wind instrument. When you cast a bard spell using a wind instrument as a spell focus, you can make a Deception or Performance check as a part of casting the spell. Creatures with a passive Insight score equal to or less than the result of your check do not see or hear you cast the spell. Once you have used this feature three times, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.]

## Bardic Inspiration

[A number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum once) per long rest, you can use a bonus action to choose one creature other than yourself within 60 feet that can hear or see you. That creature gains a d6 Bardic Inspiration die.]

[Within the next 10 minutes, before or after rolling an ability check, attack roll, or saving throw (but before the result is determined), the creature can roll the Bardic Inspiration die and add the number rolled to the result. Once the Bardic Inspiration die is rolled, it is expended. A creature can have only one Bardic Inspiration die at a time.]

[At 5th level, your Bardic Inspiration die increases to a d8. At 10th level it increases to a d10, and at 15th level it increases to a d12.]

## Battle Hymn

[At 1st level, you learn a battle hymn, which can be expressed in any type of performance. Once at the start of your turn, you can activate a battle hymn by expending one use of your Bardic Inspiration (no action is required). Performing a battle hymn requires your concentration, as though you were casting a spell. Once activated, a battle hymn continues until you lose concentration or the start of your next turn.]

[The number of battle hymns you know are listed in the Battle Hymns Known column of the Bard table. Whenever you gain a bard level, you may choose one battle hymn you know and replace it with a new battle hymn. Your bard level determines what battle hymns you can learn.]

Audience.[ Unless otherwise noted, a battle hymn does not have a target until you choose one, and each hymn targets a single creature within 30 feet. You can choose to target a creature at any time, but once you have chosen a target of your battle hymn, the hymn's target can't be changed.]

Sustained Song.[ When you have an activated battle hymn but have not chosen a creature to benefit from it yet, at the start of your turn when it would end you can instead choose to sustain the battle hymn until the start of your next turn without expending a use of Bardic Inspiration.]

## Spellcasting

### Cantrips

You learn two bard cantrips of your choice at 1st level and additional bard cantrips at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Bard Spells table.

### Spell Slots

[To cast a bard spell, you must expend a spell slot of the spell's level or higher. The Bard Spells table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your bard spells. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.]

### Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher

[At 1st level, you know your choice of four 1st-level spells from the bard spell list. Consult the Spells Known column of the Bard Spells table to see when you can choose more bard spells. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. ]

Additionally, when you gain a bard level, you can replace a bard spell you know with another from the bard spell list, provided it is of a level for which you have spell slots.

### Ritual Casting

[You can cast a bard spell you know as a ritual if that spell can be cast as a ritual.]

### Spellcasting Ability

[Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your bard spells. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier to set the attack bonus and saving throw DC for your bard spells, as follows:]

Spell save DC[ = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier]

Spell attack modifier[ = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier]

### Spellcasting Focus

[When casting a bard spell, you can use an arcane focus or Art Speciality as your spellcasting focus.]

## Adventuring Tricks

[At 2nd level, you learn one adventuring trick of your choice. Adventuring tricks are detailed at the end of the class description. The Tricks Known column of the Bard table shows when you learn more adventuring tricks.]

## Jack-of-All-Trades

When you enter a settlement and spend a day playing or recounting the tale, the reputation of you and your allies starts to grow. In addition to receiving local quests suited to the exploits detailed in your bardic legend, when you rest in a settlement that knows your bardic legend, you and your allies regain all spent hit dice over the course of a long rest. In addition, you gain an expertise die on Prestige checks made in the settlement.]

[Starting at 7th level, you craft a second bardic legend. Commoners are either more amenable or afraid of you, depending on the type of bardic legend you create. Choose one of the following skills: Deception, Insight, Intimidation, or Persuasion. You gain advantage on checks made using the chosen skill to influence any commoner that has heard your bardic legend.]

[Beginning at 11th level, whenever you enter a settlement, you can name a new bardic legend of your choice. Allies that are part of the tale gain inspiration when they finish a long rest in that settlement. Any other creatures that are part of that tale have their reputations ruined---either they confront you directly to stop the rumor, or they are unable to hide or deal in that town for the length of time you are in it. Once you have used this feature in a settlement, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.]

## Battle Hymn Focus

[Also at 4th level, at the end of another creature's turn, you can use your reaction to activate a battle hymn. This battle hymn replaces any currently activated battle hymns. Replacing an activated battle hymn does not require expending a use of Bardic Inspiration if the previously activated hymn doesn't have a target.]

In addition, choose one of the following.

- Your battle hymns don't require concentration.
- [Your battle hymns can affect a number of additional creatures equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum one).]
- [You learn an additional battle hymn, which doesn't count against the number of battle hymns you know.

[Whenever you gain a bard level, you can change your Battle Hymn Focus.]

## Renewed Inspiration

[Starting at 5th level, you regain all expended uses of Bardic Inspiration whenever you finish a rest.]

[At 8th level, the range of your battle hymns increases to 60 feet.]{.c6 .c17}

In addition, choose one of the following.

- [You can expend two uses of Bardic Inspiration to activate two Battle Hymns at the same time. Losing concentration or changing battle hymns ends both hymns.]
- [Pick three spells of 4th-level or lower that have only vocalized components. These spells can be from any class spell list. You can spend two uses of Bardic Inspiration to cast one of the chosen spells at the start of your turn without using an action. If you do, you can't activate a battle hymn that turn.]
- [When you expend a use of Bardic Inspiration to activate a battle hymn, you can also grant a Bardic Inspiration die to a creature within 60 feet.]

[Whenever you gain a bard level, you can change your Battle Hymn Specialization.]

### Art Mastery

[At 11th level, you gain one of the following art masteries. At 17th level, you gain an additional art mastery.]

Percussion: Rolling Rhythm.[ When using a percussion instrument as a spell focus, if you cast a spell that targets only one creature, you can target an additional creature. The additional target must be within range of the first (as if the original target were casting the spell). You can use this feature a number of times equal to half your proficiency bonus (rounded down) per rest.]

String Instruments: Melody for All.[ You gain a number of melody charges equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1), which you regain whenever you finish a long rest. When using a string instrument as a spell focus, if you cast a spell that targets only one creature, you can spend a melody charge to target an additional creature within the spell's range.]

Visual: Dual Masterpiece.[ When using visual art as a spell focus, if you cast a bard spell that uses an ally as its point of origin and then cast that spell again on your next turn, the spell is cast as if you had used a spell slot two levels higher. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.]{.c6 .c17}

Voice: Everlasting Song.[ When concentrating on a bard spell you cast using your voice as a spell focus, you automatically succeed on checks made to maintain concentration on that spell.]

Wind Instruments: Perfect Pitch.[ While using a wind instrument as a spell focus, you gain advantage on Deception and Performance checks to conceal the casting of bard spells.]

## Universal Trick

[At 13th, 16th, and 19th level, you learn a developed talent from the berserker class, a sign of faith from the cleric class, a soldiering knack from the fighter class, or an elective study from the wizard class. You can't learn more than one Universal Trick from any individual class.]

Magic Never Dies.[ When you activate this hymn, each ally within 30 feet regains up to five levels worth of spell slots or gains 30 temporary hit points.]

Taste of Victory.[ When you activate this hymn, each ally within 30 feet of you gains a blessing of victory that lasts for 24 hours or until it is expended. Whenever a target makes an attack roll or contested ability check, they can expend their blessing of victory to gain advantage on the roll.]

[Once you have activated your grand battle hymn, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.]

## Virtuoso

[At 20th level, you can use an action and expend a use of Bardic Inspiration to start an epic performance that lasts for 1d4 rounds. While the performance lasts, you can choose up to 50 creatures that are within 120 feet and that can hear or see your performance. Each creature you choose makes a Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, the target is charmed by you for the performance's duration and for 6 days afterwards, or until you or your companions do anything harmful to it. A charmed creature regards you as a friendly acquaintance.]

[The performance ends early if you are incapacitated or silenced, or if you voluntarily end it (no action required). At the end of the performance, you can extend the duration by 1d4 rounds by expending an additional use of Bardic Inspiration.]

If your epic performance lasts at least 1 minute, when the performance ends each charmed creature you choose is affected by a [mass suggestion ][spell cast at 9th level. Creatures do not make saving throws to resist this effect. The commands you give a charmed creature are not obvious, and other creatures must make an Insight check contested by your Performance check to notice that you are doing anything more than giving a performance. You can give each creature its own set of commands but can give out only six different sets of commands.]

[Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.]

Once you challenge a creature in this way, you have disadvantage on attacks against creatures other than the challenged creature, and the challenged creature has disadvantage on attacks against creatures other than you. A creature remains challenged in this way until either you or the challenged creature is incapacitated, dies, or ends their turn out of line of sight from the other. The challenge also ends if you use this feature again to challenge a different creature, or if a third creature challenges either you or your challenged creature.]

You lose good standing with that authority if you go against their wishes. Consult the Narrator on authorities within the campaign setting, their wishes, and what will keep or return you to good standing with them.]

Wing Clip.[ You aim for your target's wings. The target makes a Dexterity saving throw against your maneuver DC. On a failure, its fly speed is reduced by half until it recovers. A creature that fails this saving throw while flying immediately falls 60 feet, taking damage as normal if it strikes a solid surface.]

[A creature wounded by any of these effects makes a Constitution saving throw against your maneuver DC at the end of each of its turns, recovering and ending the effect on itself on a success. Alternatively, the wounded creature (or a creature within 5 feet of it) can use an action to make a Medicine check against your maneuver DC, ending the effect on a success. Healing magically or from a trait (such as Regeneration) also ends the effect. You can't choose effects that specifically target body parts a creature doesn't have.]

### Hawkeye

While you have this die, when a creature within 60 feet that can hear or see you would make an attack, you can roll the tactics die and add the result to that creature's attack roll. Once rolled, the tactics die is lost until you regain it at the start of your next turn. The tactics die disappears when the combat ends.]

[If you start your turn and no one has rolled the tactics die, you can trade out the die for a die of the next larger size, such that a d4 becomes a d6, a d6 becomes a d8, and so on, up to a maximum of d12.]{.c6 .c7}

For the next 10 minutes, your chosen allies can take the Help action as a bonus action to help each other. This coordination requires you to maintain concentration (as if concentrating on a spell), and both chosen creatures---the one helping and the one making the ability check---must be within 30 feet of you at the time the ability check is made.]

[Each turn, you can use your bonus action to change which creatures benefit from the coordination each turn. The skills that can benefit from this feature are Acrobatics, Animal Handling, Athletics, Deception, Insight, Intimidation, Investigation, Stealth, and Survival.]

[If you have proficiency in Stealth, this coordination can happen silently via surreptitious signals. If you have proficiency in Deception, this coordination can happen as a series of code words interspersed with other conversation. An onlooker needs to succeed on an Insight check contested by your ability check---whether Stealth or Deception---to realize the coordination is taking place.]

### Superior Tactics

### Hidden Resources

At 18th level, choose one of the following.

#### Dig Deeper

[You can use a bonus action on your turn to allow a creature to regain the use of an origin trait or class feature that would normally be regained by finishing a short rest. You can use this feature twice, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.]

#### Reach Further

[While you are conscious, when a creature you choose within the radius of your Commanding Presence would drop to 0 hit points, that creature can use its reaction to roll your tactics die and gain temporary hit points equal to the result plus your Charisma modifier (minimum 1). Once a creature has benefited from your tactics die in this way, it can't do so again until it finishes a long rest.]

[Starting at 3rd level, with 10 minutes of work you can use your thieves' tools to boobytrap a 5-foot-square area or a Large or smaller object. Your trap can be anything from a needle in a lock to a rockfall in a passageway. Describe the mechanics of your trap to the Narrator. Logic determines which traps can be built where; for instance, a swinging axe can't be hidden in a jewelry box.]

[The trap's DC is 8+ your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity bonus . A creature can spot the trap by making a Perception check against the trap's DC. Creatures aware of the trap can avoid or disable it without a check. When a creature enters the trapped area or interacts with the trapped object, it makes a Dexterity saving throw against the trap's DC. On a failure, the trap is triggered and the creature takes an amount of damage equal to 1d6 damage × one-half your rogue level. The type of damage dealt (bludgeoning, piercing, slashing, or poison) is determined by the nature of your trap. Once a trap has been triggered, it is disabled.]

[You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain all uses of this feature when you finish a rest.]{.c6 .c7}

### Trap Sense

[Also starting at 3rd level, you have advantage on saving throws made against traps. You have advantage on ability checks to detect and disarm traps, and you can do so using your Cunning Action.]

### Augmented Trapmaking

[At 9th level, you learn one of the following trap capabilities. When using Trapmaking to create a trap, you can choose to augment it with the new capability, which is triggered when your trap damages a creature.]

#### Immobilization Trap

[The target is caught in the jaws of the trap. The target's movement speed is reduced to 0. A creature can use an action or legendary action to make a DC 13 Strength check, freeing itself or another creature on a success. Building this trap requires a hunting trap, which can be recovered after the trap is triggered.]

#### Poison Trap

[You add a contact or injury poison to the trap, which consumes the poison. The victim of the trap is affected by the poison.]

#### Vial Trap

[You add a vial of liquid, such as acid or alchemists' fire, to the trap, which consumes the liquid. Each creature within 5 feet when the trap is triggered makes a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, the creature is splashed with the liquid.]

### Improvised Crafting

[Starting at 13th level, during a rest you can use tinker's tools to create a mundane item that lasts until the start of your next rest. You can create one of the following items:]

- A vial of alchemist's fire or acid.
- [Any weapon, ammunition, or gear worth 20 gp or less (or several identical items with a total cost not exceeding 20 gp). The item functions like the original object but can be made of different materials.]

### Deadly Trapmaking

[Starting at 17th level, the traps you create with your Trapmaking feature deal damage equal to 1d6 × your rogue level.]

Additionally, when you gain a sorcerer level, you can replace a sorcerer spell you know with another from the sorcerer spell list, provided it is of a level for which you have spell slots.

### Blizzard (Cold)

[When you cast a spell that deals cold damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point and choose one creature you can see. If that creature takes cold damage from the spell, it is also chilled, reducing its movement speeds by 10 feet for a number of rounds equal to the spell's level (minimum 1 round).]

### Hurricane (Lightning or Thunder)

[You can treat both lightning and thunder as your manifestation's damage types. When you cast a spell that deals lightning or thunder damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point to produce a thunderous blast around you.

### Inferno (Fire)

[When you cast a spell that deals fire damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point and choose one creature you can see.

### All Eyes

[You gain an expertise die on Performance and Persuasion checks. In addition, as a bonus action you can spend 1 sorcery point to put out a subtle pulse that causes all creatures within 60 feet to take notice of you, allowing you to speak and be heard even in the midst of chaos. During combat, this notice lasts only a split second---not long enough to distract, but allowing you to make a Charisma check as part of the bonus action used to activate this feature.]

### Daunting Energy

[You gain an expertise die on Intimidation checks. If you fail an ability check or saving throw against a creature trying to intimidate you, or against an effect that would cause you to become frightened, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll the check or save. If you do, you must use the new result.]

### Unsuspecting

[You gain an expertise die on Deception checks. When you fail a Deception check against a humanoid, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll the check. On a success, their memory skips a beat and fills in the gap with your new story. On a failure, not only do they not believe you, but anyone who can cast spells and observed the exchange (including your target, if applicable) recognizes your attempt at arcane subterfuge.]

## Metamagic

[At 3rd level, you gain two minor Metamagic options, and one moderate Metamagic option. You gain another minor Metamagic option at 5th level, 10th level, 15th level, and 19th level. You gain an additional moderate Metamagic option at 10th and 19th level. When you gain a level in this class, you can replace one Metamagic option with another of the same degree, instead of replacing a spell.]

[You can use only one Metamagic option on a spell when you cast it, unless otherwise noted.]

### Minor Metamagic

Delayed Spell.[ When you ready a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point. The spell can be held for up to 1 minute, instead of until the start of your next turn.]

Distant Spell[. When you cast a spell that has a range listed in feet, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double the range of a spell. If you cast a spell that has a range of Touch, you can spend 1 sorcery point to make the range of the spell 20 feet.]

Persistent Spell[. When you cast a spell that has a duration of 1 minute or longer, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double the duration, to a maximum of 24 hours.]

Reliable Spell.[ When you roll a 4 or lower on a spell attack, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll the attack. If you do, you must use the new result. You can use Reliable Spell even if you have already used a different Metamagic option on the spell.]{.c6 .c7}

Subdual Spell[. When damage from one of your spells reduces one or more creatures to 0 hit points, you can use your reaction and spend 1 sorcery point to stabilize one of the creatures knocked unconscious by it.]

Subtle Spell.[ You can spend 1 sorcery point to cast a spell without vocalized or seen components.]

Treacherous Spell.[ When you cast a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point to alter its components in subtle ways. A creature attempting to identify the spell based on its components perceives it as a different spell of your choice of the same or lower level. Attempts to interrupt this spell via ]counterspell are made at disadvantage.

### Moderate Metamagic

Careful Spell.[ When you cast a spell with an Iinstantaneous duration that affects an area, you can spend 1 sorcery point. If you do, choose a number of creatures in the area up to your Charisma modifier (minimum one creature). Creatures you choose are unaffected by the spell.]

Empowered Spell.[ When you roll a spell's damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll a number of the damage dice up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one). If you do, you must use the new rolls. You can use Empowered Spell even if you have already used a different Metamagic option on the spell.]

Heightened Spell.[ When a creature makes a saving throw to avoid or resist the effects of a spell you cast, you can spend 3 sorcery points to give that target disadvantage on its initial saving throw against the spell.]

Quickened Spell.[ When you cast a spell with a casting time of 1 action, you can spend 2 sorcery points to cast it as a bonus action instead.]

Reflexive Spell.[ Immediately before rolling initiative, you can spend 2 sorcery points to cast a spell of up to 3rd-level that has a casting time of 1 action or 1 bonus action. The spell activates before any other actions in initiative, but doing so uses your action for your first turn in the combat.]

Refracting Spell.[ When you cast a spell that involves a spell attack roll and targets only a single creature, you can spend an additional 2 sorcery points. If the spell hits, a creature within 5 feet of the original target takes half the spell's damage.]

Twinned Spell. [When you target a creature with a spell that can target only one creature at the level it is cast and doesn't have a range of Self, you can spend a number of sorcery points equal to the spell's level (minimum 1) to target a second creature within range with the same spell.]

## Ability Score Improvement

[At 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score by 2 or two ability scores by 1, to a maximum of 20.]

## Arcane Innovations

[At 4th level, you gain an arcane innovation of your choice. Your arcane innovations are detailed at the end of the class description. The Innovations Known column of the Sorcerer table shows when you gain additional innovations.]

## Arcane Refinement

At 6th level, choose one of the following.

### Deep Source

[When you finish a short rest, you can expend a number of Hit Dice up to your Charisma modifier to regain some of your magic essence. For each Hit Die you expend, you regain 2 sorcery points. Once you have used this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.]

### Patient Aptitude

[Choose a number of spells with the ritual tag equal to your Charisma modifier. These spells need not be from the sorcerer spell list, but they must be of a level for which you have spell slots. You can cast these spells as rituals, though you don't gain the ability to cast them normally with spell slots. The spells don't count toward your spells known. If you increase your Charisma modifier, the number of ritual spells you know also increases. Each time you gain a sorcerer level, you can replace one of these ritual spells with another eligible spell.]{.c6 .c7}

### Prodigious Innovator

[You learn three cantrips from any spell list. These cantrips don't count toward your cantrips known.]

## Rapturous Presence

At 9th level, choose one of the following.

### Larger Than Life

[You have advantage on Intimidation checks made to threaten someone with your magic. On a failure, your target is unconvinced, and unless you make good on your threat, this feature no longer functions until you prove your reputation again. Additionally, features and traits that attempt to evaluate how tough you are, such as the fighter's Size Up, always give the impression that you are more dangerous than you actually are.]

### Nobody's Fool

[You gain a bonus to Insight checks equal to your Charisma modifier. In addition, you can spend 1 sorcery point as an action to project a magical aura of honesty. For the next 10 minutes, creatures within 10 feet of you have disadvantage on Deception checks made to lie or conceal the truth. When a creature in this aura fails a Deception check, it accidentally blurts out something it didn't mean to while attempting to spin its lie.]

### Otherworldly

[Select three of the following creature types: aberration, celestial, dragon, elemental, fey, fiend, or undead. You have advantage on Charisma checks to make a first impression on a creature of one of your chosen types, and if you do not share a common language, you can still communicate some simple concepts to them such as "friendly," "help," and "run." In addition, by spending 2 sorcery points and 1 minute in meditation, you can change your creature type to one of the chosen creature types. This transformation lasts for 1 hour or until you repeat the meditation and spend 2 sorcery points to reverse it.]

## Evolving Manifestation

[At 12th level, you gain the improved form of the manifestation you selected at 2nd level. Alternatively, you can choose an additional manifestation from the Manifestation list.]

### Evolving Blizzard

[When you cast a spell of 1st-level or higher that deals cold damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point to gain 1d6 temporary hit points per level of the spell. While you have these temporary hit points, whenever a creature hits you with a melee weapon attack, that creature takes 1d10 cold damage. The temporary hit points last 1 hour.]

### Evolving Corrosion

[When you cast a spell of 1st-level or higher that deals acid damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point to create a 10-foot-radius pool of acid centered on either the target of the spell or the spell's point of origin. The area becomes difficult terrain, and whenever a creature ends its turn in the area, it takes 2d8 acid damage. The pool remains for 1 minute or until you use a bonus action to dismiss it.]

### Evolving Hurricane

[When you cast a spell of 1st-level or higher that deals lightning or thunder damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point to create a 15-foot-radius storm centered on you. The storm moves with you when you move. The area of the storm is heavily obscured and counts as difficult terrain, but you can see and move through it normally. At the end of each of your subsequent turns, you can spend an additional sorcery point to maintain the storm. Otherwise, it dissipates.]

### Evolving Inferno

[When you cast a spell of 1st-level or higher that deals fire damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point to store some of the spell's energy as a flame you hold in one hand. You can use an action to throw this flame, making a ranged spell attack against a target you can see within 30 feet. On a hit, the creature takes 1d8 fire damage per level of the spell you cast to trigger this effect. The flame lasts for up to 1 minute or until it is thrown.]

### Evolving Venom

[When you cast a spell that deals poison damage, you can spend 1 sorcery point and choose one creature you can see. If that creature takes poison damage from the spell, it takes 2d6 ongoing poison damage for 1 minute or until a creature uses an action to treat the poison by making a Medicine check against your spell save DC.]

## Major Metamagic

[At 15th level, in addition to a minor metamagic option, you gain one major metamagic option. You gain an additional major metamagic option at 20th level.]

### Major Metamagic Options

Consumptive Spell. [When you cast a spell that deals damage, you can spend 4 sorcery points. You or a creature you can see within 10 feet of you regains hit points equal to half the spell's damage roll. If you roll the spell's damage multiple times, you only restore hit points from the first roll.]

Contingent Spell. [When you cast a spell, rather than have it go off immediately, you can spend 6 sorcery points and describe an external condition. If that condition occurs before you finish a long rest, you can use your reaction to trigger the spell. You can have only one Contingent Spell at a time.]

Echo Spell. [When you cast a spell of 5th-level or lower, you can spend sorcery points equal to the sorcery point conversion cost for a spell slot of that level (see Table: Creating Spell Slots). The spell repeats on the next turn, originating from the same point and aimed at the same target as the first instance of the spell.]

Intense Spell.[ When you cast a spell that deals damage, before rolling damage or determining the result of any of the spell's attack rolls or saving throws, you can spend sorcery points equal to the spell's level. If you do, the spell deals its maximum possible damage to one target.]

## Arcane Clutch

[Starting at 20th level, you can reclaim some fraction of the energies you expend as you cast. Whenever you cast a spell of 3rd-level or higher, you regain sorcery points equal to one-third of the expended spell slot's level.]

## Explosive Magics

[Also at 20th level, the magic you bring to bear can be made to build upon itself. When you cast a spell of 4th-level or lower that deals damage, you can spend a number of sorcery points equal to half the spell's level (minimum 1) to reroll any dice that have the maximum result and add them to the total. For example, if you cast an exploding ]fireball[ and roll three 6s among your damage dice, you roll an additional 3d6 and continue rerolling any 6s, adding them to the total damage dealt.]

# Arcane Innovations

[When you gain access to a new arcane innovation, choose one of the following.]

## Draw Nourishment

[You can spend 3 sorcery points before eating a pound of just about anything organic---bark, grass, cactus flesh, bone, whatever's at hand---and so long as you can stomach the taste, it counts as 1 Supply for you as your body transmutes it into something more edible. A poisonous substance consumed in this way is still poisonous.]

## Hot Air

[Any time you have sorcery points remaining, your weight is reduced by half, and you take half damage from falling. Additionally, if you are carrying less than a quarter of your maximum equipment load, you float on water.]

## Lingering Touch

[When you encounter a shed piece of a creature (such as a lock of hair, a bloody bandage, a scale, or a tooth), you can touch that object and instantly attune to it as if it were a magic item. While you are attuned to the object, when you see the creature from which it originated, you immediately know that it belongs to that creature, at which point the attunement ends. At the Narrator's discretion, you might learn additional cryptic information as a result of being attuned to such things.]

## Mage Hunter

[When tracking a creature that can cast at least one spell, you can focus on the mystic energy it leaves in its wake, allowing you to use your Charisma for any ability checks made to track it.]

## Magnetic Step

[You can move along vertical surfaces at half your Sspeed without needing to make an ability check. If you end your turn on such a surface, you immediately fall unless you have some other way to support yourself.]

## Retrace

[By spending 1 minute in meditation, you can reflect on the magical aura you leave behind as you travel. After doing so, you can perfectly retrace the steps you've taken in the past 4 hours.]

## Strange Traces

[While traveling, you can spend 1 sorcery point to obscure your trail. For the next hour, any tracks your group leaves become random, zigzagging, and incomprehensible. Creatures have disadvantage on Survival checks to track you and become lost on a failed check.]{.c6 .c7}

## Ominous Insight

[When you fail an Arcana, History, Nature, or Religion check, you can draw on your magics to find an answer and reroll the check. On a failure, your attempt clouds your mind and you have disadvantage on Intelligence checks until you finish a rest. While your mind remains clouded, you can't use Ominous Insight again.]

## Wode Sense

[While traveling, any time you enter illusory terrain or magic causes you to become lost, you notice within 1 minute of being affected.]{.c6 .c7}

# Sorcerer Archetypes

## Sorcerer Archetype Spells

[You know additional spells from your sorcerer archetype. At 1st level, choose one spell from the 1st-level row of your archetype's Archetype Spells table and add it to your spell list. It does not count against your total spells known. At 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level, choose an additional spell from a row on the table equal to or lower than your sorcerer level. When you gain a level, you can replace one of your archetype spells with an archetype spell of equal or lower level.]{.c6 .c7}

### Draconic Toughness

[At 1st level when you choose this archetype, your hit point maximum increases by 1, and it increases by 1 whenever you gain a sorcerer level. Also, when you are unarmored, your AC equals 13 + your Dexterity modifier. ]

### Voice of the Dragon

[Also at 1st level, you understand the language of dragons. You can speak, sign, read, and write Draconic. You have advantage on Charisma checks made to influence the behavior of dragons, so long as you converse with them in their native tongue.]

### Lord Among Beasts and Mortals

[Starting at 6th level, when you start a rest in an area that isn't within 1 mile of an established settlement, you can spend 10 minutes in communion with the land to protect your camp until you finish your rest. Beasts who approach within 100 feet of your camp become docile and placid, refusing to attack you or your companions. Additionally, friendly creatures in your camp gain advantage on Perception checks to spot danger, as well as on Intimidation checks against intruders.]{.c6 .c7}

[If you repeat this effect every day in the same location for a year, the radius of the effect increases to 500 feet, and the effect becomes permanent. When you have a permanent lair, your Prestige increases by an amount equal to half your proficiency bonus. You can have only one permanent lair at a time, and the effect fades if you are ever away from your lair for a year or longer. If you die, the effect fades after 2d10 days.]

### Soaring Wings

[Starting at 14th level, you can use a bonus action to sprout dragon wings. The wings grant you a flying speed equal to your Speed. You can dismiss these wings as a bonus action. You can't manifest the wings while wearing armor, unless the armor has been specially modified for that purpose (increasing its cost by 50 percent). The wings tear clothing that is not similarly modified.]

### Draconic Presence

[Starting at 18th level, you can use an action and spend 5 sorcery points to exude a 60-foot aura of your choice of awe or fear. For 1 minute, when a hostile creature starts its turn in this aura it makes a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, it becomes charmed (in an awe aura) or frightened (in a fear aura) until the aura ends. The creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. A creature that succeeds on the saving throw is immune to your Draconic Presence for 24 hours.]

### Deeper Understanding

[Starting at 1st level when you choose this archetype, you gain an expertise die on ability checks made to identify spells being cast or sense the presence of lingering magic in any form.]

### Reach Beyond

[Also at 1st level, you can use a bonus action to attempt to replace one of your archetype spells. Declare which spell you're trying to replace and make a Charisma saving throw (DC 10 + the spell's level). On a success, you replace the spell with another archetype spell of the same or lower level until you finish a long rest, at which point the original spell returns to your spell list. This newly gained spell can't be replaced again.]

[On a failure, the new spell isn't added to your spell list, and you inadvertently cast the spell you're attempting to replace, expending no spell slots but targeting a creature or point within range of the Narrator's choice (possibly yourself). The spell is too wild to alter with metamagic, and if it requires concentration it instead lasts its full duration with no concentration required. The archetype spell you attempted to replace is then removed from your spell list until you finish a long rest, at which point it returns.]

### Retributive Surge

[At 6th level, when a creature you can see damages you, you can use your reaction to cast a 1st- or 2nd-level spell. The spell must either target the creature that damaged you or be centered on a space it occupies. The spell must have a casting time of 1 action or 1 bonus action, and you must spend sorcery points equal to the spell's level, in addition to the spell slot you used to cast the spell.]

[At 14th and 18th level, the highest level of spell you can cast in this way increases by 1.]

### Tenuous Serenity

[At 14th level, when you make a Charisma saving throw, you can spend 1 sorcery point to add an expertise die to the roll, or to reroll an expertise die used in the roll. You can do so after seeing the result of the saving throw.]

[Additionally, when you finish a short rest, select a spell that's been removed from your spell list by one of your class features. You reclaim the spell. Once you've used this feature to reclaim a lost spell, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.]

### Erupting Nova

[At 18th level, you can cast two spells simultaneously, expending spell slots for each, so long as both spells have a casting time of 1 action, the sum of their levels is less than 6, and neither spell requires concentration. When you do so, make a Charisma saving throw (DC 12 + the sum of the spells' levels). On a failure, you waste your action (but not any spell slots) and both spells are removed from your spell list until you finish a long rest.]

SPELL LEVEL SPELL POINTS 1st 2 2nd 3 3rd 5 4th 6 5th 7

### Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher

[Additionally, when you gain a warlock level, you can replace one warlock spell you know with another warlock spell, which also must be of a level you can cast.]

[If you gain a bonus spell, it doesn't count against your spells known.]

### Spellcasting Ability

[Choose Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma as your spellcasting ability. Once you make this choice, you can't change it. You use the chosen ability whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use that ability modifier to set the saving throw DC for your warlock spells and spell attack rolls, as follows:]

Spell save DC[ = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your chosen ability modifier]

Spell attack modifier[ = your proficiency bonus + your chosen ability modifier]

### Spellcasting Focus

[When casting a warlock spell, you can use an arcane focus as your spellcasting focus.]

## Eldritch Blast

At 1st level, choose one of the following features.

### Eldritch Disturbance

[You can use an action to strike a creature you can see within 60 feet with a reality-distorting curse, blending pain both mental and physical. The target makes a Wisdom saving throw, taking 1d10 force damage on a failure, or half damage on a success.]

### Eldritch Ray

[You can use an action to create a deadly beam that strikes a creature within 120 feet. Make a ranged spell attack against the creature, dealing 1d10 force damage on a hit.]

### Eldritch Scythe

[Once per turn when you would make a melee weapon attack as part of the Attack action or an opportunity attack, you can instead make a melee spell attack, lashing out with an ephemeral and unearthly blade. On hit, the target takes 1d8 force damage. In addition, you can choose a creature that you can see and that is within your reach. That creature takes half as much damage.]

### Eldritch Whip

[You can use an action to thrash a creature with a scintillating tendril of arcane force. Make a melee spell attack against a creature within 15 feet, dealing 1d6 force damage on a hit.]

[At the end of your turn you gain temporary hit points equal to half the damage you dealt with Eldritch Whip this turn (minimum 1). These temporary hit points last until the end of your next turn.

You are proficient with your pact weapon while you wield it, and you can use your spellcasting ability for attack and damage rolls with it. This weapon counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity. Your pact weapon disappears if it is more than 5 feet away for 1 minute, if you die, if you use this feature again, or if you dismiss the weapon (no action required).]

[By performing a 1-hour ritual while holding a magic weapon or rare weapon (but not an artifact or sentient weapon), you can transform it into your pact weapon. If this weapon has a bonus to attack or damage rolls, or if it deals bonus damage, you can apply these to your Eldritch Blast (a ranged weapon adds these bonuses to Eldritch Ray, and a melee weapon adds them to Eldritch Scythe; the weapon has no effect on Eldritch Disturbance or Eldritch Whip). The weapon disappears into an extradimensional space when not used, and it appears whenever you conjure your pact weapon. The weapon ceases being your pact weapon if you die, if you perform the ritual on a different weapon, or if you perform the ritual to break your bond to the weapon. The weapon is collected by your patron if the bond breaks while it is in the extradimensional space.]

### Pact of the Chain

### Pact of the Tome

[You awaken to find a grimoire left in your pack by your patron: a Book of Shadows. Choose three bonus cantrips. While the book is in your possession, you know these cantrips and they are treated as warlock spells. If you lose your Book of Shadows, you can perform a 1-hour ritual to receive a replacement from your patron, destroying the previous book. The book is collected by your patron when you die.]{.c6 .c7}

Choose one invocation from the following list: Agonizing Blast, Eldritch Bind, Eldritch Elementalism, Eldritch Grasp, Eldritch Prism, Eldritch Riposte, Eldritch Severance, Eldritch Spear, Eldritch Squall, Eldritch Tentacle, Repelling Blast, Versatile Blast.]

## Dread Thaumaturge

[At 20th level, you have learned all you can from your patron. You gain the following abilities.]

### Aura of Anathema

## Alienist

### Starstruck

The pool disappears when you finish a rest.]

#### Psionic Awakening

[You gain telepathy out to a range of 30 feet. You can telepathically communicate with one creature you can see so long as that creature knows at least one language. If you already have telepathy, its range increases by 30 feet.]

[At 15th level, you can bid your patron to conjure a hell hound or a wight instead.]

#### Blasphemous Act

[Starting at 10th level, when you finish a long rest you gain a Channel Divinity feature. This feature must be from a cleric archetype and be granted to clerics at 2nd level. Alternatively, you can instead gain Turn Undead with the benefit of the Command Undead feature.]

[Once you have used the chosen Channel Divinity feature, you can't do so again until you finish a rest.]

#### Hurl Through Hell

[Starting at 14th level, once per long rest when you hit a creature with an attack, you can use this feature to instantly fling it through the most horrific vistas of the multiverse.

- [You gain a pool of faerie dice, which begins empty. Each faerie die represents a bit of good fortune from your patron. When the cursed creature makes an ability check or attack roll with disadvantage, add one faerie die to this pool.

[Choose one creature affected by the spell. It must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you until the end of its next turn. While charmed in this way, it is incapacitated, has a Speed of 0, and does nothing but stare blankly at the dazzling effects of your magic. The effect ends early if the target takes damage or is forced to make a saving throw.]

### Terror

[Choose one creature within 30 feet that can see you when you cast the spell. The creature makes a Wisdom saving throw or becomes frightened of you until the end of its next turn. While frightened in this way, it starts its turn by using its full movement to get away from you in the most direct manner possible, avoiding obvious hazards along the way.]

### Brilliance

[Choose one creature within 30 feet that can see you when you cast the spell. The creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or be blinded until the end of its next turn.]

### Warding

[After casting the spell, until the start of your next turn, a creature who attempts to attack you must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, it must choose a new target or waste its attack.]

## Bestow Magics

[At 13th level, you can transfer your magic to another creature. To do so, you must touch a willing creature, expend a spell slot of 3rd-level or lower, and concentrate for 1 minute. At the end of this time, choose a spell you have prepared of the expended spell slot's level or lower. The creature can cast the spell using the slot you expended, following its normal rules for casting time, spell components, range, and concentration, but using your spellcasting ability modifier, spell attack modifier, and spell save DC. You can have only one spell imbued at a time. If you bestow a spell upon a different creature, the spell slot remains expended and the previous spell dissipates, its magic unspent.]

## Arcane Defenses

[At 15th level, your training has granted you certain protections against magic. Choose one of the following:]

### Mental Discipline

[Once per rest, when you fail an Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma saving throw, you can choose to succeed instead.]

### Mystic Mantle

[You and creatures within 10 feet have resistance to damage dealt by spells.]

### Superior Countermagic

[When you make an ability check as part of casting ]counterspell or dispel magic[, you add your proficiency bonus to the roll.]

[In addition, when you cast either of these spells, treat the spell slot level of the spell as one level higher than the actual slot you spent. The slot you use to cast the spell must still be at least 3rd-level.]

## Spell Intensity

[At 18th level, choose one of the following features, which can be used to augment your wizard spells of 5th-level or lower. You must choose whether to augment the spell when you declare you're casting it, before any rolls are made.]

[The first time you use this feature to augment a spell, you suffer no adverse effect. If you use this feature again before you finish a long rest, your hit point maximum and current hit points are reduced by 1d12 per level of the spell you augmented (cantrips count as 1st-level spells for this purpose). This reduction lasts until you finish a long rest.]

### Binding

[After you have affected a creature with a spell that has a duration and it is able to end the spell's effect on itself with a successful saving throw, it must succeed on that saving throw twice to end the effect.]

### Burn

[Any creature that takes damage from the spell takes that damage again at the start of your next turn, unless a ][dispel magic][ spell of any level is cast on it before then or if it's in an ]antimagic field at the time.

### Chain

[If the spell you cast normally targets only a single creature, it can also target up to two more creatures within 15 feet of the initial target.]

### Duality

[If the spell you cast requires concentration and you're already concentrating on another spell, you can maintain concentration on both spells simultaneously. If you're forced to make a Constitution saving throw to maintain concentration, the minimum DC is 10 + the combined levels of the two spells. On a failure, both spells end.]

### Overchannel

[Instead of rolling damage, you instead deal maximum damage with the spell.]

## Swift Signature

[At 19th level, when you cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 action using your Signature Spell feature, you can cast it as a bonus action instead.]

## Archmage

At 20th level, you gain the following features.

### Magesight

[You can't be blinded, and you can see normally in all types of darkness (including magical) to a distance of 120 feet.]

[When you see a creature use Spellcasting to cast a spell, you instinctively know what spell is being cast before the casting is complete. This doesn't tell you what level spell slot is being used to cast the spell.]

### True Magician

[You can cast any 1st-level wizard spell you have prepared without expending a spell slot.]

# Elective Studies

[When you gain access to a new elective study, choose one of the following. Some studies have prerequisites, such as minimum wizard level, or another study. You must meet those requirements before you can choose that study.]

## Air Lift

[You can use an action to increase your vertical jump distance to 15 feet until the end of your turn. When you jump in this way, you can also glide with the updraft, allowing you to move 10 feet horizontally for every 5 feet you descend vertically.]

## Detect Magic Savant

Prerequisite: Able to cast detect magic

Whenever you cast detect magic[, you can choose one of the following benefits to amplify the spell.]

## Loremaster of Creatures

[When you gain this study, choose one creature type: beasts, constructs, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends, giants, oozes, plants, or undead. This creature type becomes your Loremaster Creature Specialty. When you encounter a creature of the same type as your Loremaster Creature Specialty, you automatically know any history, legends, or myths related to it.]

## Loremaster of Travel

[You have advantage on History checks to recall information related to myths and legends that are location-based. In addition, when you arrive at a settlement for the first time, choose one of the following subjects: culture, etiquette, government, or populace.

## Persistent Mending

Prerequisite: The ability to cast mending

[When you finish a long rest, choose up to six creatures who rested with you, including yourself. Choose one piece of their equipment to enchant with a persistent mending effect. The chosen item instantly fixes itself if it becomes damaged. If you choose an item from the following list, it also grants an additional benefit. This effect lasts for 12 hours.]{.c6 .c7}

Coat.[ Choose either cold or hot weather. The creature gains an expertise die on Constitution saving throws made to resist the effects of that kind of weather.]

## Presto, Prestidigitation!

[The following effects are added to the list of options you can choose when you cast ]prestidigitation.

- [You transmute a small piece of string in your hands into a sturdy, 30-foot-long rope. For the duration, it functions as a regular hempen rope.]
- [Using the heads side of a coin like a lens, you can hold the coin over one of your closed eyes and see through it. While looking through the coin in this way, you gain darkvision to a range of 30 feet. The coin's darkvision effect ends when the spell ends.]{.c6 .c7}
- [A pebble you touch becomes a sensor that you can use to see through. For the duration as long as you are within 10 feet of the pebble, you can use an action to see through the pebble to a range of 30 feet. While seeing through the pebble, you are blinded and deafened with regard to your own senses.]
- [On a piece of parchment or paper, you can create an exact copy of another piece of parchment or paper, including any writing, drawings, or other markings that appear on the original. The paper does not change size to accommodate any differences in size between the two. The copy you create disappears when the spell's duration ends.]

# Wizard Archetypes

## Arcanist

### Scholarly Specialty

[When you take this archetype at 2nd level, choose one classical school of magic as your Scholarly Specialty: abjuration, conjuration, divination, enchantment, evocation, illusion, necromancy, or transmutation. The gold and time you must spend to copy spells from this school into your spellbook is halved. If a feature refers to your chosen school, it refers to the school selected in this feature.]

### Esoteric Talent

Also at 2nd level, you gain one of the following benefits:

#### Bend Magic

#### Flash of Insight

[You can use a bonus action to roll a d20, record the result, and choose a creature you can see within 30 feet.

If you use this feature again before you finish a short rest, you must expend a spell slot of 1st-level or higher to do so.]

#### Arcane Armor

[When you cast a wizard spell of 1st-level or higher, you store some of its magic to protect yourself, gaining temporary hit points equal to twice the level of the spell, or three times the spell's level if the spell is from your chosen school. Instead of gaining these temporary hit points yourself, you can use your reaction to grant them to a creature you can see within 30 feet.]

#### Energy Retention

#### Perfect Control

[When concentrating on a wizard spell of your chosen school, you only need to roll to maintain concentration when you take damage from an attack, effect, or spell equal to or greater than your Intelligence score + your wizard level.]

#### Secondary Learning

#### Heightened Potency

[When you cast a wizard spell from your chosen school, it is always treated as though it were cast with a spell slot one level higher (maximum 9th-level) than the one you used, so long as you expended a spell slot to cast it. The slot you use to cast the spell must still be at least equal to the level of the spell.]

#### Precise Understanding

[When you see a creature cast a spell from your chosen school, you automatically know what spell it's casting. In addition, you have advantage on saving throws against spells.]

### Broad Knowledge

[At 2nd level when you choose this archetype, the cost to copy a spell into your spellbook is reduced to 40 gp per spell level (instead of 50 gp per level).]

### Flexible Thinking

[Also at 2nd level, once per rest you can use an action to replace one spell you have prepared with any other spell in your spellbook.]{.c6 .c7}

### Flux

[At 6th level, you gain Flux, the ability to bend your magic in flexible, constantly-changing ways. When you finish a rest, choose one of the benefits from the following list. You can expend your Flux to use that benefit.]

[When you cast a spell of 1st-level or higher, you can change your benefit to a different one. If you do, you regain your Flux. Otherwise you regain your Flux when you finish a rest.]

Ad Hoc Defense.[ When you take damage, you can use your reaction to reduce that damage by an amount equal to your proficiency bonus.]

Elusive.[ You can use a bonus action up to teleport 15 feet to an unoccupied space you can see.]

Reactive Ward.[ When you make a saving throw, you can use your reaction to add your Intelligence modifier to the result (minimum +1). You can do so after the roll is made, but before any of its effects are resolved.]

Spell Intensity.[ When you cast a spell that deals damage, you can increase the spell's first damage roll by an amount equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum +1).]

### Fluent Control

[At 10th level, you can use your Flexible Thinking feature as a bonus action (instead of as an action).]

[In addition, you add your Intelligence modifier (minimum +1) to Constitution saving throws made to maintain concentration on spells.]

### Multitalented

[At 14th level, when you see a creature cast a spell of a level equal to or lower than your Intelligence modifier, you automatically know what spell it is.]

[In addition, choose one Flux effect. You can use the chosen effect without expending your Flux. When you gain a level in this class, you can replace the chosen effect with a different Flux effect.]

## Pyromancer

### Cleansing Fire

[When you choose this archetype at 2nd level, you learn how to use flame to heal aw well as harm. When you expend a spell slot to cast a spell of 1st-level or higher that deals fire damage, you can choose one creature that would take damage from the spell. Instead of taking damage from the spell, the creature regains a number of hit points equal to the spell's level plus your proficiency bonus.]

When you cast ]dream[ in this way, you act as the spell's messenger. You take no damage from the fire, but if the fire goes out before you end the spell, you take 4d6 psychic damage and the spell ends.]

### Clinging Flames

[At 6th level, when you cast a spell that deals fire damage and forces a saving throw, creatures that fail their first saving throw against it take ongoing fire damage equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum 1). At the start of each of its turns, the creature repeats the saving throw, ending the ongoing fire damage on a success.]

### Blazing Mastery

[At 10th level, fire damage from your spells treats immunity to fire damage as though it were fire resistance, and ignores fire resistance entirely. Additionally, you gain resistance to fire damage, as well as immunity to fire damage dealt by your own spells.]

### Offerings in Kind

[At 14th level, you can seek the aid of higher powers in your time of need. As an action, you urge the spirits of fire to intervene and roll 1d100. If the result is equal to or lower than your wizard level, the intervention comes immediately. If not, the spirits make a demand in turn (which may be a high price) and do not intervene until the price is paid. The Narrator determines the price, as well as the exact nature of the intervention, though a wizard spell of any level is usually appropriate. If intervention occurs, this feature can't be used again for 7 days. Otherwise, you can try again after a long rest. The scope of this power is dependent on the Narrator's discretion---for a high enough price, anything is possible.]

[In addition, you can copy any fire spell into your spellbook as if it were a wizard spell. Once you do, it is a wizard spell for you.]{.c6 .c7}
