Au ra

We Xaela are nomads who roam and live off the land. My tribe was no different. Yet though we did no harm to those whose lands we traversed, they treated us as vermin. in their ignorance, they feared us, and that fear manifested as spite and violence.

My loved ones and I were cursed at, spat upon, beaten, and worse. It was out of the desire to protect them that I began my research.

-Alaqa the Witch

The Au Ra are a misunderstood people due to their physical appearance. Their scaled bodies and horns led many to fear them, believing them to be descendants of dragons or demons. This fear led to hate, which gave way to violence, leaving these proud people few in number across the world. These conditions have led the Au Ra to value their families beyond all else.

Variable Size

Au Ra are characterized by their curved horns and intricate patterning of scales across their bodies. Sleek and powerful tails extend out from behind the Au Ra. There is a striking difference in height between the males and females of the race, the men ranging from just over 6 feet tall to 7 and a half feet tall, while the women are dwarfed, rarely coming close to 6 feet tall. Their faces contain sharp features and piercing eyes, alluding to their normally serious and sullen demeanor.

Au Ra tend to dress very modestly, wearing simple robes and lengths of cloth drapped over their bodies as cloaks, especially amongst the nomadic Xaela tribe.


Divided By Blood

The Auri creation myth tells the tale of two beings, the dawn father and the dusk mother. The two kinds of Au Ra have beliefs about their connection to these beings. The dark scaled Xaela are a nomadic people who believe that the blood of the dusk mother coarses through their veins. The Xaela view themselves as free spirit folk, who roam the lands hunting, gathering, and battling against other roaming tribes, in honour of their ancestors of the past. The light scaled Raen on the otherhand has moved on from the nomadic lifestyle, building a great city beneath the waves of the Ruby Sea to make their home. Here the Raen live a life of tranquility and solitude from the rest of the world.

Peaks, Valleys and Plains

The Au Ra's homeland is known as Othard, a region to the far east. A majority of their homeland is covered by sprawling plains known as the Azim Steppe which dominates their country. The Xaela clans travel across this sea of land in close knight tribes. The northern and western reaches of Othard are shieled with high mountain peaks and deep valleys shrouded in mist. To the East extends the Ruby Sea, beneath which the Raen have made their home, hidden from the world.

For my family

An Au Ra may set off on an adventure for any number of reasons. A thirst for adventure may awaken in them and draw them from their isolated clan lives, or an act agaisnt their clan or tribe has forced them to action.

This could go as far as searching for lost family members, or seeking revenge for a slight against their family. For the Au Ra, family is extremely important to them, and may serve a central purpose to drive them to explore the world.

Au Ra Names

The Au Ra approach names in two starkly different ways. The Xaela see many names shared across tribes, but there are as many spellings for the same name as there are tribes. Xaela take the name of their tribe as their surname. The Raen name themselves in their tongue in a way that their name carries meaning. Only those belonging to the ruling and warrior class of society legally have surnames, while commoners may take a surname, it is not legally recognized. Raen who are in power often take surnames related to their feats in battle, while commoners take names related to their profession.

Au Ra Traits

Your Au Ra character has a variety of natural abilities.

Ability Score Increase. Your Dexterity score increases by 2.

Age. Despite their extraordinary phyiscal features, the Au Ra live about as long as any of the other races of Eorzea, reaching physical maturity around the age of 16, and living to be around 80 years old.

Alignment. The Au Ra as a whole do not tend to neither good nor evil, or towards law or chaos. The Xaela tend strongly towards the chaotic lives of nomads outside of the laws of civilized city-states, while the Raen enjoy the order provided by the law. Often times an Au Ra finds themself to be the product of their upbringing.

Size. There is a large size disparity between men and women of the Au Ra. Males range anywhere from 6 and a half to 7 feet tall with a lean build dwarfing the females who rarely grow taller than 5 feet. Your size is medium.

Speed. Your base walking speed is 30ft.

Careful Awareness. Au Ra are careful to show weakness, attributed to the years of persecution. If you miss with an attack roll or fail an ability check or a saving throw, you can gain a bonus to the roll equal to the number of allies you an see within 30 feet of you (maximum bonus of +5). Once you use this trait, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Cranial Horns. Your horns act as your means of perceiving sound. You have improved hearing and spatial awareness compared to other races because of this. You gain proficiency in the perception skill.

Auri Scales Your hit point maximum increases by 1, and increases by 1 every time you gain a level.

Languages. You can speak, read and write Common and Auri. The Auri language does not include gender or numbered nouns or verbs, causing an Au Ra to mislabel things sometimes when speaking another language.

Subrace. The Au Ra's bloodline has split into two distinct groups, the nomadic Xaela and the solitary Raen, divided by the divine blood of their creators the Dusk Mother and Dawn Father. Select one of the two subraces of Au Ra.

A Valuable Ally

The Au Ra are steadfast allies once they are befriended. Once an Au Ra calls you their friend, you are considered family to them. Their experiences with other races are fewer in number than most, but can appreciate the culture of the new lands.
Hyur. "Every Hyur is different in their own way. They're an ambitious people who work hard for their future. We can live alongside them easily."
Elezen. "They turned us from their gates, and slaughtered us out of fear. We do not trust the Elezen as a whole, though perhaps there may be one redeemable one among them."
Miqo'te. "Miqo'te don't differ much from us. We both have an appreciation for what the natural world can provide us with. I'm sure our tribes would clash if they crossed paths in Othard though."

Xaela

As a Xaela, you have been hardened by your life on the road as a part of a nomadic tribe. A life of hunting and warring has led you to martial prowess and improved strength. You are more outgoing than your Raen counterparts and are much more willing to engage in battle to resolve a conflict. Xaela tribes are small but numerous, battling for territory against one another on the Azim Steppe. Despite a willingness to fight, Xaela do not seek war, it is merely a tool to settle differences.

Ability Score Increase. Your Strength score increases by 1.

Xaela weapon training. You have proficiency with the shortbow, shortsword, dagger and spear.

Nomadic Heritage. Due to your tribal ancestory you have proficiency in the survival skill.

Raen

The Raen live beneath the churning waters of the Ruby Sea, eastern waters doted by islands and amongst the sharp peaks of Othard. They prefer the pen to the sword and would rather solve a problem with diplomacy rather than resort to violence. They are a reserved people, living in isolation from the world, but have no animosity towards other city states. There is simply no reason for them to become involved with others outside of trade, and to do so could bring ruin upon their hardwon peace beneath the waves and atop the mountains.

Ability Score Increase. Your Wisdom score increases by 1.

Natural Insightful. You proficiency in the insight skill.

Eyes of the Deep. Accustomed to life beneath the sea, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. Vou can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Xaela Tribes

An extended list of the 51 Xaela Tribes has been provided in the Appendix for this document.

Elezen

For centuries, our nation has been punished for the sins of our forefathers. If our punishment is to end, I believe we must right the wrongs of antiquity and move forward as a nation united. Needless to say, my father did not share this opinion.

-Ser Aymeric de Borel, Lord Commander of the Holy See

The Elezen are a race divided within themselves, and their often arrogant attitudes keep the other races at an arms reach. The Wildwood live off the lush forests, using their keen eyes to hunt and gather in the dense forests or live in the religious oligarchy of Ishgard, cut off from rest of the world. The Duskwights in contrast are notorious for thievery and pillaging. Spending much of their live in caves and caverns hidden in the forest.

Elegance and Pride

Long legs, slender bodies, pointed ears and sharp features are all marks of an elezen. Only rivaling their otherworld appearance is the poise with which they carry themselves. Their tall, thin frames only differ within the race by the colour of their skin. All Elezen try to clothe themselves whenever it is appropriate, valuing their appearance.

Difference of Opinion

The Elezen race is divided due to their pride. The Wildwood and Duskwights found they could not coexist and distanced themselves from one another. The Wildwood believing they are the true rulers of the forests in which they live and hold dominion. The largest population of Wildwood Elezen live in Ishgard, a massive religious city embroiled in a war against dragonkind, closed off from much of the world. The Duskwights, who made their homes in the cavern systems of the forests have since been driven to crime to survive due to the Wildwood's clutch on the boundaries of the forest.

The Woods and the North

The forest which the Elezen live is the Black Shroud, a massive forest brought to order by the Wildwood, who protect the forest from poachers and other threats which would encroach on it. Duskwights, who disregard the need to protect the forest and hunt to their content. Looking to the Northern city of Ishgard, towering spires, homes and a grand cathedral hide behind their giant gates. Living conditions in Ishgard are rough, as the poor go hungry in the lower levels of the city, while the wealth live in exuberance, looking down on the less fortunate citizens, ruled by the religious teachings of the Holy See.

Honour and Vengeance

An Elezen may set out on an adventure for many different reasons. An Ishgardian Wildwood hungry for revenge against the dragons may set out to seek greater strength, while another may take up arms to defend their forest home from an encroaching threat against the Black Shroud. Duskwights may set out to gain honour and riches to support their family or to prove to the world they are more than just a thief. Perhaps you seek glory in battle, and head out to find this fame.

Elezen Names

Both the Wildwood and Duskwight clans of Elezen spell their names very similarly. Men's names are longer and always in -loix, -aux, -mont, or -geant. A female's name will always end in -ne, -ette, -elle, or -ie.

Despite the similarity in their first names, the Elezen tribes over time claimed sur names for either side. These surnames will never cross clans, but only those who live within the race will know the difference.

Male Elezen Names. Adeux, Beichault, Dreauchant, Eauplaux, Etrent, Gloffaux, Jodeaux, Joyent, Ulmant, Ulwex,

Female Elezen Names. Adreanne, Iflione, Eaupline, Eranne, Etrene, Moriene, Peronne, Cummone, Phivonne, Paxeonne

Elezen Surnames. Breaunojuste, Douvionne, Feajorins, Gehon, Glauvefand, Grurubont, Nahame, Prihaux, Shogamie, Zuhepane

Alignment. Wildwood Elezen lean towards lawful alignments, be it their upbringing to protect the forest or life within the religious walls of Ishgard. Duskwight's have embraced the wild way of living, leaning towards chaotic alignments, viewing laws as arbitrary things.

Years of life in the forests of the Black Shroud has imbued them with various abilities.

Poachers Escape. You can take the Disengage or Hide action as a bonus action on each of your turns.

Superb Hearing. You have advantage when making a perception check which involves hearing.


Arrogance or Confidence?

The Elezen strongly believe in their abilities and their birthrights. Many races may see this as arrogance, but if you are able to see past their haughty attitudes, you will find a steadfast and reliable ally.

Au Ra. We Ishgardians have made a grave mistake. Despite their heretical appearance, we should not have let fear guide out hands. I hope we can make amends one day.

Hyur. "We were the first people of the woods, regardless of what they believe. Why the forest sends their chosen through the Hyur is beyond me, but I suppose we can be friends."

Miqo'te. "They are skilled hunters, perhaps too skilled. We share the woods with these people in service to the forest. But the Keepers who break off from the clans and become poachers are as deadly as they come."

Hyur

Thal's Balls... I'd forgotten what it was like to feel so alive! Not since leaving the bloodsands have I had the privilege. Not since the Bull of Ala Mhigo hung up his swords. Back then, the outcome might have been different. But I do not begrudge you your victory. I know how far you have come, how much you have endured. Our fight only confirmed it. We shall have to do this again one day, when time allows.

-Raubahn Aldynn, The Bull of Ala Mhigo

Around 1000 years ago, the Hyur spread across the land in a great migration from the north. They made their homes wherever they could set their footing. Some took to the mountains, while others found a foot hold in any city which would accept them. Today the Hyur are one of the most populous races in the world.

Of Average Build

The Hyur are a race of average sized humanoids whom one may view as an average group of people, lacking distinguishing features such as pointed ears, immense size or horns. Over time Hyur have diverged into two distinct groups, the Midlanders and Highlanders. Midlanders are widespread across the land and come in all shapes and colours, becoming prevelant in all cities. Highlanders in comparison are taller than their Midlander counterparts, boasting a more powerful, muscular build.

A Matter of Location

The differences between the Midlanders and Highlanders was born from their homes long ago. The Highlanders are named for living at a high elevation, mountains in particular.


These tough living conditions lead to a heartier, more physically powerful people. The Midlanders lived at sea level and across the world, which minimized changes due to life in extreme conditions.

People of the World

Hyur as a whole make up a large percentage of the population in the world. Over a thousand years ago the Hyur immigrated in massive waves from their homelands and made their homes wherever their feet hit the ground. Highlanders are a special case within the Hyur, famed for their mountainous city of Ala Mhigo. In recent years, the Ala Mighans were forced from their homes to immigrate across the world, mixing into the cities across the world themselves.

Glory and Prosperity

The Hyur are a hardworking and ambitious people, no matter what walk of life they come from. It is for this reason that for every Hyur in the world, there could be a different reason to seek adventure. Some may head out on the road for the value of the journey itself, while others may do so in search of riches. Some Hyur may be adventuring on another's behalf, perhaps their family sitting at home, or to defend their people from an imminent threat. In a world with so many possibilities, it does not take much convincing to bring a Hyur to action.

Hyur Names

The names of the Hyur are in the common tongue of the land. Midlander may take names which are appropriate for the culture in which they live while Highlanders take names which have a harshness in their pronunciation. As a surname, Midlanders will often take a descriptive name for their physical traits or profession. Highlanders prefer to earn their surnames in battle, using feats of martial prowess or names with violent imagery.

Male Midlander Names. Odard, Redwald, Kenward, Herebert, Acwuld, Edward, Roderic, Eadwine

Female Midlander Names. Rowena, Hilda, Agatha, Hrodwyn, Goldyna, Hounild, Edusa, Beyhild, Mathilda, Tonild, Somerhild, Rimilde

Male Highlander Names. Sigmundr, Arnar, Armond, Varin, Bard, Hordr, Ogmundr, Hallgrim, Thordr, Raubahn

Female Highlander Names. Marte, Cathrine, Yngvildr, Helene, Kolgrima, Katie, Myrun, Kaolin, Kaia, Kamilla

Midlander Surnames. Taylor, Faulkner, Browne, Parker, Forrest, River, Miller, Draper, Fletcher, Hill, Thatcher

Highlander surnames. Fury, Burne, Savage, Stronge. Strongaxe, Blood, Furor, Shatterfist, Strongblade, Ironwill


Breadth of Bonds

Hyur are prevelant throughout the world, and because of this most will welcome a Hyur into their lives without prejudice. Overall the Hyur are met with courtesy wherever they wander.
Elezen. "For a long time we didn't see eye to eye, but for the time being we are friends."
Lalafell. "The Planesfolk are a wonderful people, so earnest in their lives. The Dunesfolk, will rob you blind with your thanks."
Miqo'te. "They're a quiet folk who keep to themselves, but I can respect their skill. I have no qualms with them."

Lalafell

But I will see them suffer no longer. The victory feast shall provide the stage on which I declare the dissoultion of the sultanate. 'Tis mine intent that the ruling class of our golden city should take its place beside the common man in a fair and equitable republic. No more shall this nation bow to the whims of a privileged few.

-Nanamo Ul Namo, Sultana of Ul'Dah

The Lalafell are generally a cheery race of people. Long ago the Lalafells lived as masters of agriculture and spread across the land along trade routes, selling their produce becoming one of the most widespread races there is. In time the Dunesfolk went as far as establishing their own desert city-state known as Ul'Dah. These tiny folk are highly ambitious and are not afraid to take hold of opportunity when it appears before them.

Tiny Yet Mighty

Lalafell anotomy sees these kindly people rarely growing to be 3 feet tall. Their short bodies are rotund, with short feeble looking legs. But appearances can be deceiving as Lalafells bodies are highly efficient, allowing them to travel long distances on their short legs. The Plainsfolk have larger, pointed ears which greatly improved their hearing, while the Dunesfolk developed a film which covers their eyes, protecting them from the sun and sand of the desert. Additionally out of tradition, Dunesfolk will place gemstones associated with their zodiacal sign on their foreheads.


Products of the Land

The Lalafellin homelands produced two types of people, from which they take their names. The Plainsfolk started off as agriculturalists living their lives on their farms, eventually trading their goods across the land, leading for lalafells to spread across the world. The Dunesfolk began and remain as desert dwelling folk, their bodies adpating to the harsh conditions.

Rolling Planes and Towering Dunes

The Lalafell can trace their ancestery back to two key area. The Plainsfolk began as farmers on fertile islands in the south, farming the fertile lands of their namesake. The Dunesfolk were not so luck to have farmable land and instead turned to animal husbandry. Traditionally Dunesfolk built their homes on the backs of beasts of burden, travelling with their herds. Eventually the Dunesfolk founded a great city of wealth, where nearly all Dunesfolk live today.

Family and Fortune

Lalafells care deeply for their small families and would do anything for them. They may set out on an adventure to support their families or in their defense. Not all Lalafells have such pure goals though as many contain a great deal of ambition in their tiny bodies. Merchants travel all over the land, researchers seeking knowledge in secret places, sellswords bravely take on jobs to prove themselves. Lalafells may be small, but they take on the world in a big way.

Lalafell Names

Both the Plainsfolk and the Dunesfolk name themselves using set rhyming schemes, ruled by rhythm and repetition. Syllables are combining in various combinations to form playful sounding names. This means that Lalafells generally do not have surnames unless they come from royalty, which adds their family name in the middle.

Miqo'te

The Nunh that I once fought also believed that his strrrength would save him. He was wrong, and I am now Nunh. Many years ago I joined the Company of Heroes to hone my skills instead of challenging my predecessor before I was ready. Even when I was young I understood that victorrrry goes to the patient, the cunning, the pragmatic."

-U'odh Nunh, leader of the Drake Tribe

The Miqo'te are an aloof people who value their independence from the world. Centuries ago the Miqo'te migrated, Seekers spreading across the world in low numbers while Keepers finding dense forests as a new home. Traditionally they avoid the other races, but over time more and more Miqo'te have integrated into society with pockets of die hard traditional Miqo'te tribes surviving out in the world.

Lithe Hunters

The Miqo'te are a feline race with large catlike ears, fanged teeth and long tails. They have a highly tuned sense of smell and powerful legs, which have allowed them to become natural hunters. The Seekers of the Sun's ears are wider with thicker fur, while the Keepers of the Moon's ears are longer and stylized, with shorter fur. Futhermore, the eyes of the Seekers has developed such that the pupils are slit light, to help guard their eyes from the exposure of the sun, while the Keepers' pupils have become large and rounded. Many more women are born into the tribes and clans of the Miqo'te people.

Of Suns and Moons

The Seekers or the Sun and Keepers of the Moon are two distinct ethnicities falling under the Miqo'te. Their cultures differ greatly down to the social structures of their groups. The Seekers live in male dominant societies centered around an alpha male known as the Nuhn, and worship the god Azeyma. In constrast the Keepers live in a matriarchical society and worship the goddess Menphina.

Arid Sands and Dense Woods

The hot, arid deserts of Southern Thanalan are home to one of the most famed tribes of the Seekers of the Sun. Seekers can be found anywhere across the world, barring cold regions with a harsh winter climate. Those who integrate into larger cities tend to discard their tribal ties and take up the social norms of the city in which they live. Keepers of the Moon have taken to the dense forests away from the heat of the sun.

Adventure Calls

The Miqo'te tend to differ on their approach to life depending on their ethnicity. The Seekers of the Sun are bold individuals who are quick to jump into action, but also become bored easily. This natural need for excitement may call a Miqo'te to action, leading them out into the world to explore. Those from traditional tribes may leave their tribe seeking to start their own clan of Seekers, becoming the alpha of their group.

Keepers are guarded and brooding, which may stall them from setting out on a journey, but when the need arises to protect family, friends or their home, a Keeper will stop at nothing to protect that which they cherish.

Miqo'te Names

Seekers of the sun use a simple naming convention. Male names are one or two syllables and preceded by a letter which is associated with the tribe. The extra aitches (H) we see in names such as represent a slight hissing/spitting sound that is made when the name is pronounced by the cat-like Miqo’te. Many of the other races in Eorzea cannot accurately reproduce this sound, so the aitches (H) end up going silent when read. They do not take a family name, but instead are given the name Tia at birth. A Tia may change their surname to Nunh by challenging the tribes breeding male and defeating him in battle. If successful the two trade titles. Female seekers' first names are given in the same way with three or more syllables, but the surname is the first name of the breeding male who sired her.

The tribal prefix often gets dropped in casual conversation and with close friends and family.

The female Keepers use one to two syllable first names without a tribal prefix due to their small communities. Additionally in their culture the mother's surname is passed on to the children. The males born into the Keepers' communities take both of their mother's names, adding a suffix to the end of their first name to indicate their birth order counting the males. It is rare that more than 3 suffixes are needed.

They sought to secure a place to breed and multiply, that their kind might survive. Self-preservation, as you say. But we have as much right to live and thrive as they. If our own survival is threatened, are we to lay down our arms and welcome oblivion? Nay.

-Admiral Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn

The Roegadyn are a physically powerful race of people with a thirst for life which few can rival. They live loudly with boisterous voices, larger than life goals and an unflinching approach to danger. Roegadyns are fearless explorers who long ago were the greatest pirates to sail the seas. Adventure is in their blood.

Size Matters

Roegadyn are enormous humanoids with a hulking muscular build. Men and women alike grow to tower over the other races. Partly due to their size, Roegadyn as a whole love competitions of strength and courage, challenging one another to push themselves and their bravery. Their faces have fierce features and large flat noses. Due to their large size, Roegadyn tend to wear durable, flexible clothing which allows them to move easily.

Maritime Reavers, Volcanic Hermits

The Sea Wolves live up to their names through a storied history on the ocean. Most Sea Wolf communities can be found on the coast, as most make their living from the sea.


Be it sailing, naval service or mercenary work, the Sea Wolves continue to feel most at home when adventuring on board a ship. The Hellsguard in comparison live in land around the volcanic mountains of abalathia. Here they guard the material plane from undead spirits trying to return home.

The Great Seas and Abalathia

The Roegadyn as an entire race hail from the Northern seas , their name translating to people of the rain. These sea fairing people can be found living in coastal citites the world over living as sailors, mercenaries and pirates.

The Hellsguard live around the volcanoes of the Abalathia mountains, believing their home to be a sacred place related to the afterlife. Those Hellsguard who choose to leave their mountain homes can be found in large cities near these mountains, making a living as sellswords or chasing deeper knowledge of magic.

In Their Nature

The Roegadyn people are a boisterous race, seeking out challenges to test their power and bravery.

They rarely need much convincing to head into the heat of battle for a cause they believe in, though coin may help speed them along. Sea Wolves have a long history of pirating, looting and battle on ships of all sorts, giving them a deep seeded thirst for adventure. Hellsguard grow up in solitude away from society, having no city to call their own. They may decide to head off in search of a more engaging existence by heading down their mountain and seeing what else the world has to offer.

Roegadyn Names

Sea Wolves and Hellsguard follow very different rules when it comes to naming conventions. Sea Wolves all derive their names by combining two words from their ancient Roegadyn Language. Women of the Sea Wolves also derrive their names by combining two words, but the second word is always one of eight words. Sea Wolves form their surnames by taking their parent's name and adding a third word; syn for males and wyn for females, indicating they are a son or daughter respectively.

Hellsguard on the other hand avoid their ancient language and use the common tongue. Their names are formed using two words as well, often drawing inspiration from nature. Women of the Hellsguard tend to use plant imagery in their names as well, but are not restricted to do so. Nearly all Hellsguard abandon their family names, refusing to be defined by their ancestors in the past.

Male Sea Wolf Names. Klynnahct, Flazfolg, Roehahtyn, Broenstymm, Haergeiss, Nedyrsatz, Unsynfarr

Female Sea Wolf Names. Rhotbryda, Hezzwyb, Rhenbryda, Grynegeim, Ketenbryda, Skaenswys, Swozthota, Wyznthota, Rhotbryda, Trahggeim

Volcanic Children. You know the Firebolt cantrip. At 3rd level you learn the Burning Hands spell and can cast it at the 1st level once before requiring a long rest. Charisma is your spell casting ability for these spells.

Arcanist

A lightly armoured man maneuvers through the battlefield alongside his carbuncle companion. The carbuncle dashes ahead and lets out a burst of magical energy, dazing their foes, while their allies return to formation, swaying the battle in their favour.

A quiet woman carefully scratches notes into her research tome. After a long quiet hour passes, a shining avian figure bursts forth from another plane, ready to heed her every command.

A carefully launched arrow catches the the elven woman's ally. Invoking a few words and raising her grimoire to the sky, healing magics close the wound, allowing their friend to fight on.

These skillful magic users take on many roles on the battlefield, be it a commander of their allies, a medic or a destructive force. Through careful planning and preparation an Arcanist becomes an indomitable force to stand against.

Magic Through Research

Arcanists work hard to explore the secrets of magic, only through deep understanding of formulas and geometrical figures can they produce magical effects. Their tomes and grimoires are filled with fascinating formulas and diagrams, which when fed magical energy from the Arcanist's body burst forth into powerful spells. Ever thirsty for greater knowledge, an Arcanist seeks knowledge and then tests that knowledge.

Borrowed Power

One thing which sets the Arcanist apart from other spell casters is their usage of summoning companions. Early in their studies an Arcanist learns to summon forth a magical servant. This is the first major task of an Arcanist and helps to sharpen their powers. The companion borrows some of the Arcanist's power and in return gives the caster an unwavering ally on the field of battle.

Creating an Arcanist

An Arcanist's path begins with a few formulas scrawled in a tome and a large amount of time practicing their craft, researching to unlock greater power to have at their disposal. You must consider what was your Arcanist's call to action? Perhaps their thirst for knowledge couldn't be satisfied at their desk, or they saw that their abilities could help the world in another way. Perhaps they uncovered some information that they must investigate or acted upon.

Whatever the cause which brought the Arcanist out into the world, they do so with their research in hand and companion by their side.

  • (a) a scholar's pack or (b) an explorer's pack

Spell Casting

Your avid research has allowed you to produce magic spells through the use of geometrical figures and formulae within your grimoire. As you gain experience, you are able to write more powerful formulas leading to stronger spells. See chapter 10 of the PHB for the general rules of spellcasting and the end of this document for the Arcanist spell list.

Cantrips

At 1st level, you know 3 cantrips of your choice from the Arcanist spell list. You learn additional Arcanist cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Arcanist table.

Preparing and Casting Spells

The Arcanist table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

You prepare the list of Arcanist spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Arcanist spell list. When you do so, choose a number of Arcanist spells equal to your Intelligence modifier + your Arcanist level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

For example, if you are a 3rd-level Arcanist, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With an Intelligence of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell cure wounds, you can cast it using a 1st-level or 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn't remove it from your list of prepared spells.

You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of Arcanist spells requires time spent rewriting your formulas in your grimoire: at least 10 minutes for each spell you change.

Spellcasting Ability

Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your Arcanist spells. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Arcanist spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Ritual Casting

You can cast any Arcanist spell you know as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag.

Spellcasting Focus

You can use a grimoire, tome, research notebook or other similar equipment inlaid with magical energy as an arcane focus (found in chapter 5 of the player's handbook) for your Arcanist spells.

Aetherflow

Starting at 1st level, you are able to gather and hold clusters of magical energy in your body temporarily. You are able to hold a number of Aetherflow stacks equal to half your Intelligence modifier, rounded up, minimum of one stack.

You can expend one aetherflow stack to reroll a spell's damage or healing die result, but must use the new number. All of your aetherflow stacks recharge upon completing a short rest.

Arcanist Archetype

At 2nd level, you decide on your area of specialization and along with it, the type of companion you are capable of summoning. A Strategist focuses on using their magical abilities and carbuncle ally to dictate the flow of battle, a Summoner harnesses the raw power of beings from another plane along with augmentations to their spells to rain havoc on their enemies, and a Nymian Scholar has decided to focus on the healing arts, seeking to expand the healing magic available in the world alongside their fey allies.

Summoning

Starting at 2nd level, you are able to perform a ritual to summon an aetherial companion which is able to fight alongside you. If you select the Strategist archetype, you may summon a carbuncle, if you select the Summoner archetype you may summon an Egi, and if you select the Scholar archetype you may summon a Nymian Fey.

To summon your companion you must spend one hour performing a ritual for which your spell casting focus is required. You can only summon one companion once before requiring a long rest. When summoned your companion gains all benefits of your Companion's Bond ability. You can only summon one companion at a time. If your companion strays farther than one mile from you, their bond to you and the material plane are severed, causing them to disperse.

Your summoned companion gains a variety of benefits while it is under your control. Add your proficiency bonus to your summoned companions AC, attack and damage rolls, as well as to any saving throws and skills it is proficient in. For each level you gain after 3rd, your summonned companion gains an additional hit die and increases its hit point accordingly. Your companion gains proficiency in Intelligence saving throws and the saving throw corresponding to its highest ability score (if it is already proficient in one of those saves, use its second highest ability instead).

The companion obeys your commands as best it can. It takes it's turn on your initiative, but you determine its actions, decisions, attitudes and so on. If you are incapacitated or absent, your companion acts on its own.

On your turn you can use a bonus action to cast a cantrip from the position of your companion. The casting time of the cantrip still applies as usual and doing so uses up the action of your companions turn.

You can choose to let your companion spend Hit Dice from your pool during a short rest to regain hit points. The companion makes death saving throws following the normal rules.

Whenever you gain the Ability Score Improvement class feature, your companion's abilities also improve. Your companion can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or it can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, your companion can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature unless its description specifies otherwise.

Ability Score Improvement

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.

Starting at 20th level, gain two aetherflow stack when you roll for initiative.

The Summoned Ally

The Arcanist's most prized companion is the one they bring forth into the world. Through the use of grimoires and magical fomulas, Acantists have learned how to bring forth a magical ally to fight alongside them. Depending on the area of study an Arcanist explores, they are able to summon different allies. A strategist has learned to bring forth a carbuncle, a summoner has learned to bring forth elemental egis, and a nymian scholar has learned to summon a special type of fey.

Strategist

Some Arcanists decide to research the use of their magic in the medical arts. These Arcanists come to be known as nymian scholars, specializing in the lost healing magic of nym. They call on the fey of this lost city, summoning them to assist them on the field of battle.

Nymian Scholar Expanded Spells
Spell Level Spell
1st Bless, Sanctuary
2nd Lesser Restoration, Prayer of Healing
3rd Mass Healing Ward, Revivify
4th Lustrate, Sacred Soil
5th Greater Restoration, Mass Cure Wounds

Nymian Healer

Starting at 2nd level, your healing spells are more effective. Whenever you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal to 2 + the spell's level.

Fey's Embrace

Starting at 2nd level you can use your action to harness the bond between you and your fairy. You can expend one of your aetherflow stacks to cast a spell your companion knows without expending a spellslot. You can use this feature twice before finishing a long rest.

Critical Heal

Starting at 6th level, your healing spells have the potential to cause a critical heal. When you cast a healing spell and one of the die results in its highest possible result. Roll another die of the same value and add that number to the amount of hit points recovered. A critical heal can only occur once per healing spell.

Adloquiem

Starting at 10th level, when you cast a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, you can expend one aetherflow stack to empower the heal. Your healing spell creates a protective ward on the creature, granting them temporary hit points equal to half the hit points recovered for 10 minutes. If a critical heal occured, the temporary hit points is equal to the full amount of hit points recovered.

Nymian Savior

Starting at 18th level, when you would normally roll one or more dice to restore hit points with a spell, you instead use the highest number possible for each die. Additionally roll your spell as you usually would to determine if it's a critical heal.

Astrologian

A slender woman draped in fine robes sits in a dark room across from a man who feels he has lost his way. Smiling she releases her Planisphere and a flurry of arcana cards into the air. From the squall of cards she draws and divines the man’s fate, instilling in the lost soul a sense of peace and hope for the future.

A man stands behind his allies on the battlefield. He raises his Star Globe to the sky and begins to channel energy into this tool. Using the power of the stars above, soothing energy radiates outwards, enveloping his allies, turning the tide of battle from the prior dire circumstance they fought against.

A well versed Astrologian stands before a congregation of people. She has come to spread the word of her rare new art, offering understanding of the future through the power of the stars. It has become her sacred duty to bring the stars into view for the common people.

Whether they stand behind their allies granting them the blessing of the stars and moons of the universe, or standing alongside them on the front line, Astrologians manipulate the
fates of both friends and foe to find success.

Wielders of Fate

The first task of all Astrologians is to gain a mastery over using the deck of sixty. To them, fortunetelling is a tool which allows them to interpret the stars themselves. Their deck is based on the constellations that they study. The Astrologians are gifted a divining deck when they begin their study from their master. They act as a conduit for the magic energy gathered by their star globes, passing the empowering magic from the stars to their allies.

An Elegant Tool

The Star Globe is a tool used by Astrologians which allows them to locate and draw in power from the stars. The globes are formed by large rings of precious metal and lenses. The rings are marked using a large spread of precise markings and which allows the user to find and map the stars in order to draw power without a view of the sky.

Creating an Astrologian

Astrologians hail from a faraway island where knowledge is viewed as the greatest virtue. Astrologians are usually scholars by trade, and specialized in the study of astromancy. Often they find themselves born into the scholar’s life or into highborn families. Sometimes low born apprentices find themselves working beneath a master of astromancy and learn how to tap into the magic of the stars. Astrologians are blessed with the ability to read the future. Through the use of the deck of sixty and the stars they are capable of tapping into the future, though the farther they look, the less clear things become. Some Astrologians travel the land to share this gift of foresight with everyone, while others seek out opportunities to spread their young order of magic around the realm. Others track down allies and adventure, as the stars had mandated that the Astrologian set out on a quest for a task which they cannot see the end of. Astrologians borrow power from the cosmos, and in return seeks to see that the will of the stars is done.

As a Astrologian, you gain the following class features

Hit Points


  • Hit Dice: 1d6 per Astrologian level

  • Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d6 (or 4) + your Constitution modifier per Astrologian level after 1st

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

  • a dagger
  • a Star Globe, granted to you by your mentor
  • a Divination Deck
  • (a) a explorer's pack or (b) a scholar's pack

Spell Casting

Your mastery over the deck of sixty enables you to use the power of the stars. As you gain experience, your understanding of the constellations allows you to wield more powerful astral powers. See chapter 10 of the PHB for the general rules of spellcasting and the end of this document for the Astrologian spell list.

Cantrips

At 1st level, you know 4 cantrips of your choice from the Astrologian spell list. You learn additional Astrologian cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Astrologian table.

Spell Slots

The Astrologian table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

Preparing and Casting Spells

The Astrologian table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

You prepare the list of Astrologian spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Astrologian spell list. When you do so, choose a number of Astrologian spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your Astrologian level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

For example, if you are a 3rd-level Astrologian, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With an Wisdom of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell cure wounds, you can cast it using a 1st-level or 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn't remove it from your list of prepared spells.

You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of Astrologian spells requires time spent rearranging your dvinination deck: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.

Spellcasting Ability

Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your Astrologian spells. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Astrologian spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

Spellcasting Focus

You can use a star globe, planisphere or other similar tools as an arcane focus (found in chapter 5 of the player's handbook) for your Astrologian spells.

Ritual Casting

You can cast any Astrologian spell you know as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag.

Draw

Starting at 1st level, as an Astrologian, you are able to use the Draw ability. You are capable of channeling the power of the stars into your deck of sixty, and grant boons based on the card drawn. You are limited to the number of draws indicated in the class summary table.

Using your action, roll 1d6, the number shown corresponds to the drawn card. Once drawn, you can apply the empowering effect to yourself or another creature within 30ft. that you can see. The card burns up in your hand and the magic contained is transferred to the selected creature.

The effect of the boon lasts for a number of rounds equal to half your Wisdom ability modifier rounded down with a minimum of 1 round. Restored resources must be used within this number of rounds or they are lost. Available draws refresh after a long rest.

Astrologian Archetype

At 2nd level, you choose a sect to study as an Astrologian: Diurnal Sect, Nocturnal Sect or Fortuneteller, all detailed at the end of the class description. Your archetype choice grants you features at the 2nd, 6th, 10th and 14th level.

Ability Score Improvement

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.

Draw Effects

The Balance 1 Bonus 1d6 damage on all damage effects
The Bole 2 AC increased by 2
The Arrow 3 You gain one extra attack when you take the attack action.
The Spear 4 Your attack rolls crit on a 19 or 20 die result.
The Ewer 5 Temporarily restores one level 1 or 2 spell slot
The Spire 6 Temporarily restores 1, non-spell slot resource to an ally*
*The resources included in this effect includes class resources like the Monk’s Ki Points and the Fighter’s maneuver dice. This does not include abilities which do not use a resource such as a Cleric's Channel Divinity or a Fighter's Action Surge. There must be an expended resource. Ask your DM their consideration of what counts as a resource.

Spread

Starting at 5th level your studies into astromancy has led you to a better understanding of reading fortunes. As a bonus action after using the Draw ability, you can set a drawn card aside for later use. This card is added to your spread and can be activated as a bonus action during your turn. The card sits in your spread until used. You can hold up to three cards in your spread at a cost of one extra draw for a second and third card. The cards in your spread expire during a long rest.

Royal Road

Starting at 12th level, your understanding of fortunetelling has grown considerably, allowing you augment your arcana cards further. After you use the Draw feature, you can use a bonus action to convert that card into an empowerment for a future reading. This empowerment affects the next card that you use to empower an ally, from either your Draw action or Spread bonus action.


Royal Road Effects

Use notes to point out some interesting information.


Converted: The Balance or The Bole
Effect: Potency of the next card is increased. Double the value of the effect, see the Potency Increase Effects table below for details.


Converted: The Arrow or The Spear
Effect: Double the duration of the effect


Converted: The Ewer or The Spire

Potency increase effects
Card Effect
Balance Bonus 2d6 damage on all damage effects
Bole AC increased by 4
Arrow You gain two extra attacks when you take the attack action.
Spear Your attack rolls crit on a 18, 19 or 20.

*If you have an ability which increases your crit range prior to receiving the spear buff, simply add the next lowest number to your crit range. For example, if I am a fighter with a crit range of 19 or 20. When the spear buff is applied to you, your crit range becomes 18, 19 or 20.


Shuffle

Starting at 18th level, you have mastered basic fortunetelling, allowing you to manipulate fate in your readings to a certain extent. After using the Draw action, you can use a bonus action to redraw from the deck. The drawn card is returned to the deck to be read another day, and you use the Draw action again. You can only shuffle 3 times, this number refreshing after a short rest.

Time Dialation

Starting at 20th level, you can expend an available draw to extend the duration of Draw's effect by one round on a single creature. Each subsequent extension requires one extra available draw to be spent. You make this decision at the beginning of your turn before making any movements or actions.

The Heavenly Paths

When an Astrologian is early on in their studies, they select a sect of stars from which they will draw their powers from. The stars were mapped using the positions of the sun and moon, and these two sects are reflective of their reference points. The Diurnal Sect uses the sun as their reference point, creating their star maps with the sun being the key to navigation, while the Nocturnal Sect uses the moon as the reference point. An Astrologian can choose to minimally study the stars and focus their efforts into their tarot deck, learning advanced techniques on how to manipulate fate.

Diurnal Sect

Succor of the Sun

Starting at 2nd level, your healing spells are more effective. Whenever you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal to 2 + the spell's level.

Diurnal Benefic

Starting at 6th level you are able to empower your healing spells with the power of the sun. When you cast a spell of the 1st-level or higher that restores the hit points of an ally, you can leave a regenerative effect on your allies. After the spell is cast, your allies recover 1d6 hit points at the start of their turn for a number of rounds equal to your Wisdom ability modifier. You can only empower your spells like this once before requiring a long rest.

Lightspeed

Starting at 10th level, as a bonus action you can cast an extra 1st or 2nd-level spell by spending a number of available draws equal to the level of the spell you wish to cast.

Blessing of the Sun

Starting at 14th level when you would normally roll one or more dice to restore hit points with a spell, you instead use the highest number possible for each die. For example, instead of restoring 2d6 hit points to a creature, you restore 12.

Nocturnal Sect

Morningstar Mage

Starting at 2nd level, you have trained your body alongside your mind, gaining prowess in the martial arts to survive on the battle field. You have proficiency with one handed simple and martial weapons, light and medium armor. You gain 1 extra hit point when you level up. Your spell list is expanded with offensive magic from the list below, allowing you to learn the following spells.

Nocturnal Sect Expanded Spells
Spell Level Spell
1st Hex, Witch Bolt
2nd Moonbeam, Snilloc's Snowball Storm
3rd Melf's Minute Meteors, Elemental Weapon
4th Dimension Door, Ice Storm
5th Cone of Cold, Far Step

Nocturnal Benefic

Starting at 6th level you can empower your spells with the magic of the moon. When you cast a spell of the 1st-level or higher that restores the hit points of an ally, you can leave a shielding effect on your allies. After the spell is cast, your allies gain temporary hitpoints equal to #d4 where # is equal to your Wisdom ability modifier. You can only empower your spells like this once before requiring a long rest.

Malefic Attunement

Starting at 10th level, you have mastered the ability to weave astromancy and martial combat seamlessly, allowing you to cast a spell after landing a melee attack as a bonus action. The spell can not be higher than the 2nd level when cast in this manner.

Rage of the Moon

Starting at 14th level, you are able to channel the power of the moon into your arms. For 10 minutes you strike with the malefic powers of the moon. Your spells and melee attacks channel the astral energy of the nocturnal sect, dealing an additional 2d6 force damage. You can use this ability once and it cannot be used until you complete a long rest.

Fortuneteller

Stacked Deck

Starting at 2nd level, you have learned how to stack your deck of sixty. When you use your Draw action, you can roll 2d6 instead and select the result of the Draw action from the two results. Discard the other result.

Expanded Deck

Starting at 6th level, you have access to twice the number of available Draws per day than the listed number.

Double Draw

Starting at 10th level, you have learned how to read multiple arcana cards at the same time. When you use the Draw action, you can roll 2d6 and use both cards to grant boons to your allies. Doing so prevents you from using the Stacked Deck feature.

Twisted Fate

Starting at 14th level, you have mastered reading arcana cards and twisting fate. You have learned to use all the tools at your disposal, allowing you to freely use your fortune telling skills for 10 minutes, refreshing after a long rest. For each Draw action, you can use Royal Road, Shuffle, Spread, Stacked Deck and Double Draw. Each card drawn still consumes an Available Draw point.

College of the Wanderer - Bard Archetype

Bards of the College of the Wanderer are adventurers who travel the land sharing not only stories, music and merriment, but soothing the souls of those who have passed on.

Members of the college of wanderers have made it their goal to record history through poetry and verse, while at the same time travelling the world and seeking out wounded spirits from the lands of the living and dead. The college of the wanderer was an idea started by a famous archer who caused the deaths of his comrades. To cope with his grief he turned to the poetic arts and traveled the world trying to atone for his sins by delivering restless spirits to a peaceful slumber. He hoped to one day return to the place where his friends were lost, and lay their souls to rest.

Troubadour

When you join the College of the Wanderer at 3rd level you learn to weave together the art of archery with the arcane. You gain proficiency with longbows and the Arcana skill.
If you are proficient with a simple or martial weapon, you can use it as a spellcasting focus for your bard spells.
Additionally, when your Spellcasting feature lets you learn or replace a bard spell of 1st level or higher, you can choose the new spell from the ranger spell list or the bard spell list. You must otherwise obey all the restrictions for selecting the spell, and it becomes a bard spell for you.

When you gain this feature choose two cantrips from Caustic Bite, Empyreal Arrow, Misery's End, Rain of Death or Stormbite to learn. They count as bard cantrips for you, but don't count against your number of cantrips known. You learn another cantrip from this list at 7th, 11th and 15th level.

Swift Song

At 3rd level your songs and words are infused with the power of swift winds. A creature that has a Bardic Inspiration die from you can use it's reaction to roll that die to move a number of feet equal to the die result x5, without provoking opportunity attacks. The creature also gains a number of temporary hit points, equal to the number rolled.

Pitch Perfect

Starting at 6th you gain the ability to infuse your attacks with the power of sound. Once per turn, when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can expend one bard spell slot to deal thunder damage to the target, in addition to the weapon’s damage. The extra damage is 1d8 for a 1st-level spell slot, plus 1d8 for each spell level higher than 1st. When you reduce a creature to 0 hit points using this feature, you regain one expended use of your Bardic Inspiration.

Wanderer's Minuet

Starting at 14th level, the wandering winds guide your strikes. Whenever you make a ranged attack roll you can use a bonus action to reroll the attack roll against a different target within 60 feet of the original target. You can wait after you roll the first d20 before deciding to use this feature, but must use it before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails and must use the new result.

Black Mage

A Lalafell stands before a horde of kobolds, blood thirsty they dash towards him. With a few skillful waves of his staff, a large fire ball erupts from the gem inlaid at the end of the staff, causing a massive fiery explosion, leaving nothing but ash.

A woman wearing dark robes grins as she waves her wand before a guard refusing her entry. With a few choice words and a spell, the guard happily steps aside, unlocking the passage before falling unconscious due to illness.

An Elezen laughs at his reflection as he inspects his body after tapping into the powers of the void. His eyes glow red and his teeth bare fangs, signs that his mastery of magic is growing.

A Black Mage is a powerful ally who wields forbidden magic stolen from the void. This raw energy manifests itself into devastating spells and effects. Their power is only rivaled by their thirst to increase that power.

A Dark Past

In days long past, there existed an evil clan and arcane art known as black magic—a potent magic of pure destructive force born forth by a sorceress of unparalleled power. Those who learned to wield this instrument of ruin came to be called Black Mages, out of both fear and respect for their gift. Yet great power served to corrupt the judgment of mortal man, and so he unknowingly set out upon the path of ruin.

Adventurers who take the black will become agents of devastation, capable of annihilating those who oppose them through little more than the force of their will.

Ties to the Void

In order for a mage to don the black, they must extensively research what they call the void. This is another plane of existence from which Black Mages draw knowledge, in order to unlock power within themselves. Most Black Mages are able to explore the knowledge gained from the void through tomes and texts now, but some who thirst for new power can attempt to tap into the void directly. Black Mages continue to grow within their craft through continuing their study of the dark arts.

Creating a Black Mage

Black Mages are earnest in their desires and reasons for taking the black. More often than not it is in the pursuit of power or out of sheer curiosity. You must know why you are pursuing this power, or why you are curious about the dark arts. You must also decide where you began to dip your toes into the world of black magic. Did you join a cult of mages who studied the art? Perhaps a proper school which provides the proper materials to explore Black Mage. Maybe you were taken under the wing of a mentor who has mastered the art.

  • (a) an explorer's pack or (b) a scholar's pack

Spell Casting

Your frequent dealings with the void allow you to channel destructive power from within yourself. As you gain experience, you gain access to the eldritch secrets of the void. See chapter 10 of the PHB for the general rules of spellcasting and the end of this document for the Black Mage spell list.

Cantrips

At 1st level, you know 4 cantrips of your choice from the Black Mage spell list. You learn additional Black Mage cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Mage table.

Spell Slots

The Black Mage table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher

You know 2 1st-level spells of your choice from the Black Mage spell list. The Spells Known column of the Black Mage table shows when you learn more Black Mage spells of your choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 5th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st, 2nd or 3rd level. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the Black Mage spells you know and replace it with another spell from the Mage spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability

The spellcasting ability for your Black Mage spells changes depending upon the discipline you select. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Black Mage spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Spellcasting Focus

You can use a rod, cane, wand or other similar equipment as an arcane focus (found in chapter 5 of the player's handbook) for your Black Mage spells.

Ritual Casting

You can cast any Black Mage spell you know as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag.

Magical Discipline

At 1st level, you choose the discipline you belong to as a Black Mage. Destroyer, Inflictor, or Void Soul, all detailed at the end of the class description. Your archetype choice grants you features at the 2nd, 6th, 10th and 14th level.

Spell Augmentation

Starting at 2nd level, you have learned how to augment your spells with extra effects. You have a number of augmentation points as listed in the Black Mage class table. Some features may require you to spend augmentation points. Your augmentation points return to the maximum number after completing a long rest.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 10th, 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.

Limitless Aether

Starting at 20th level, you recover 3 augmentation points after completing a short rest.

Bringers of the end

Unabated use of black magic lead to the downfall of the society in which Black Mages find their roots alongside the white mage's overuse of white magic. Black Mages wield incredibly destructive powers which set their world on a path to destruction once before, and careless use of this power could do so again. An Annihilator specializes in explosive and powerful magic, causing massive destruction wherever they go. An Inflictor is a Black Mage who uses enchantments and poison to cause a myriad of maleffects for their enemies, spreading sickness to cripple their foes. A Void Soul Black Mage has sought desperate measures to continue their studies which has led to the allowance of power directly from the void to course through their body.

Annihilator

Destroyers are Black Mages who specialize in maximizing the effects of their magic. Fires which burn hotter and ice which freezes more deeply.

Void Soul

A void soul is a Black Mage who has gone to great lengths to increase their knowledge of destructive magic. Not unlike a warlock, a void soul has allowed energy from the void to pour into their body, rather than borrowing from a patron.

Additionally your wings grow significantly larger, with a wingspan double your height. You gain the ability to fly 60ft. for 1 hour.

Dark Knight

A man clad in heavy armor cleaves his way through the battle field. An aura of darkness radiates out from him. His blows are swift and sunder the foes' armor. His enemies turn and run, claiming he is no man, but a demon.

Standing before a wounded citizen, a woman clad in ebony holds out her hand towards the group of guards. She alone stands between the corrupted enforcers and the innocent soul. She chants in a lost tongue and a blast of dark energy launches from her palm, striking a guard down.

Battered and bloodied, a man drags himself to his feet. Armor dark as night, accented by his own blood, he feels energy bursting forth from his body. Using his pain as a weapon he strikes down the great beast before him before falling to a knee.

It is a Dark Knight's freedom from the bounds of the law which make these dark avengers so effective. Unconcerned with what is lawful, a Dark Knight is concerned with what is ethical in their view. Those who spread tyranny and injustice best prepare for a visit from a Dark Knight who aims to set things right.

Protecting the Meek

A Dark Knight is a knight who has taken up arms to serve the downtrodden. They serve no lords or institutions, believing no one is exempt from justice, no matter what their position in society. They protect the commonfolk from not only banditry and wild beasts, but from corrupt men who seek to oppress them. In return, Dark Knights are often fed and housed by those they protect, or rely upon bounty hunting and raiding looters to support themselves.

Internal Darkness

When an adventurer chooses the path of a Dark Knight they understand that they are renouncing their rights to be a regular member of society. They belong to no society, acting as paragons of justice who see no allegiance. To assist them in their quest, Dark Knights are able to sacrifice their own life force to power a well of darkness within themselves. They cause themselves great pain and exhaustion in order to allow dark power to course through their body which they harness in a variety of ways.

Creating a Dark Knight

Dark Knights are natural adventurers, living outside the law to see their goals to fruition. They may live within a remote village protecting the inhabitants from bandits, while the land's knights turn a blind eye to their plight, or they may travel the world seeking out institutionalized injustice and smiting it with violence. Dark Knights act on behalf of the common folk, and do so not expecting praise nor admiration. They are aware that they will not be celebrated in the history books like Paladins would be. Instead they expect to be demonized by history and happily accept this fact. One seeking to become a Dark Knight must be introduced to it through some means, be it an ancient tome with their rituals recorded or a mentor to impart their knowledge.

The die becomes a d6 at 5th level, a d8 at 11th level and a d10 at 17th level.

Dark Vision

Starting at 2nd level, your body has become corrupted by the darkness you are letting course through it, giving your eyes a soft red glow and granting you superior vision in dark and dim conditions.

Dark Knight Archetype

Unleash

Starting at 3rd level you have learned to conjure spikes of aether from your weapon. If you take the attack action on your turn you can spend one Well of Darkness point to activate Unleash as a bonus action. Choose one creature within 5 ft. of you that you can see. That creature takes the damage of your Attack action without any bonus.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 10th, 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.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Blood Price

Starting at 7th level you have learned to turn your suffering into fuel for your Well of Darkness. When you are struck by slashing, bludgeoning or piercing damage roll 1d12. On a die result 10,11 or 12 you recover one point to your Well of Darkness.

Soul Judge

Starting at 9th Level, you can cast the spell detect evil and good at will.

Soul Survivor

Starting at 10th level, on your turn you can use a bonus action to mark a creature as a soul survivor. If the targeted creature dies within the next round beginning at the time of casting, you recover two points to your well of darkness. You can select a soul survivor once before requiring a short or long rest.

Mired Empathy

Starting at 13th level, you have gained an understanding of your inner darkness. Using this understanding you are able to commune with another willing creature, to gain an understanding of what causes them to suffer, at will. You place your hands on either side of their head and focus, creating an empathetic link with the creature which lasts as long as you maintain contact with the creature. You feel the emotions the creature feels and something which looms large in its mind such as something it loves, hates or worries over.

You can expend two Well of Darkness points to attempt to force your way into a creature's mind by casting the Detect Thoughts spell. The targets first saving throw of the Detect Thoughts spell is automatically a failure. The target creature is left with a headache dealing 1d4 psychic damage after a successful attempt at forcing your way into their mind.

Dirty Fighter

Starting at 14th level, you have learned to incorporate dirty tactics into your fighting style. When making an attack of opportunity, you can expend a Well of Darkness point to focus your strike to a sensitive part of the body, forcing your enemy to make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the enemy is stunned until they begin their next turn. The target must be a small or medium humanoid.

Grasp of Darkness

Starting at 15th level, you have become highly attuned to the dark thoughts in your mind. These thoughts help shield your mind from outside trickery. You gain proficiency on Wisdom saving throws.

Consumed by Darkness

Starting at 18th Level, you can no longer hide your attunement with your inner darkness from an observer. Your skin has taken a sickly grey tint to it. You can expend a Well of Darkness point to cast Circle of Death once. You can cast Circle of Death again in this way after completing a long rest.

Living Dead

Starting at 20th level, you are able to give yourself over to the abyss, allowing you to continue fighting long after you should fall. When you are reduced to 0 hit points, make a DC 10 constitution save. On a successful save, you instead fall to 1 hit point and for a number of rounds equal to your charisma modifier, you cannot fall below 1 hit point. If you do not receive any healing during this time, you fall to 0 hit points at the end of the duration. This effect only occurs once, requiring a long rest to use it again.

A Path Shrouded in Sorrow

A Dark Knight takes up their sword knowing full well that the path they select will have harsh effects on their body and mind. They know they will be viewed as villains and monsters, while fighting to do the right thing. This understanding helps a Dark Knight select the path which they walk. A fledging Dark Knight decides where to direct this unavoidable misery. An Ebony Champion walks the path of a warrior, who will see countless battles, hardening themselves in the flames of war to become a peerless combatant. An Abyssal Channeler looks inwards, taking note of the darkness welling within them and learning to manipulate the raw life force energy into powerful Dark Arts. A Hellbound Dark Knight allows the darkness to run wild throughout their body, causing pain to themselves to drag their enemies to hell with them.

Ebony Champion

Those who select the path of becoming an Ebony Champion have focused on using their Well of Darkness to greatly improve their martial prowess. They focus on capitalizing on their Darkside to empower their strikes and fight with an endless fervor.

Plunge

Starting at 3rd level, you can plunge. As an action, you leap into the air using the momentum of your weapon, travelling a maximum distance equal to half your base walking speed, landing adjacent to an enemy you can see. You then make an attack against that enemy, dealing an extra 1d6 on hit. The extra damage increases to 2d6 at the 11th level and 3d6 at the 17th level.

When you use plunge you can expend two Well of Darkness points to fire a wave of energy from your weapon instead of attacking. Each creature in a 25-foot cone must make a Constitution saving throw. A creature takes 4d6 damage, the type is determined by your Darkside choice, on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The damage increases to 6d6 at the 11th level and 8d6 at the 17th level.

You can plunge twice before requiring a short rest.

Dread Bringer

Starting at 6th level, you are capable of causing a sense of dread to wash over a creature. As a bonus action you can use a Well of Darkness point to target a creature within 10 feet. The creature must make a charisma saving throw. On a failed save, you have advantage on Charisma ability checks against the creature . The creature has no knowledge that you have acted upon them, and believes their altered state is a natural result from your presence.

Alternatively you can attempt to scare the creature. On a failed save the creature is frightened for 1 minute or until it takes any damage. While frightened the creature's speed is 0, and it can't benefit from any bonus to it's speed. On a succesful save, the creature's speed is halved for 1 minute or until the creature takes any damage. You can use these features a number of times equal to half your Charisma modifier rounded up (a minimum of once). You regain expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Blood Weapon

Starting at 11th level, you are able to absorb energy from enemies through your weapon. When you successfully strike an enemy with your attack action and subsequent extra attack, you can roll 1d8. You recover hit points equal to the result. On a 7 or 8 result, you recover a Well of Darkness point.

Dark Survivor

Starting at 17th level, you have learned to channel the abyss through your body to continue to fight. At the start of each of your turns, you regain hit points equal to 5 + your Constitution modifier if you have no more than half of your hit points left. You don't gain this benefit if you have 0 hit points. This healing does not count towards the effects of Living Dead.

Abyssal Channeler

As an Abyssal Channeler, you have decided to focus on manipulating your Well of Darkness. Doing so allows you to convert your own life force into powerful Dark Arts.

You know two Dark Arts at 3rd level, detailed in the Dark Arts section below. You learn one additional Dark Art of your choice at the 6th, 11th and 17th level. Additionally you know the Toll the Dead cantrip.

Casting Dark Arts. Using the dark magical energy from within, you are able to cast spells. See chapter 10 for the general rules of spellcasting. To cast one of these spells you use its casting time and other rules, but you don't need to provide material components for it.

Once you reach the 6th level in this class, you can spend additional Well of Darkness point to increase the level of a Dark Art that you cast, provided that the spell has an enhanced effect at a higher level. The spell’s level increases by 1 for each additional Well of Darkness hit die you spend. The default casting level of these spells is at the lowest possible level.

The maximum number of Well of Darkness point you can spend in this way (including the base cost and the additional points you spend to increase the level) is determined by your Dark Knight level, as shown in the Spells and Well of Darkness Points table.

Dragoon

The earthshaking roar of a dragon echoes across the battle field. Beating its wings furiously, the beast swoops down from the sky. A man clad in scale mail leaps high into the air and plunges down onto the creature's back, driving his spear into its spine, forcing the creature to the ground.

A woman stands among the chaos of war. She rushes down an opponent, striking with the ferocity of a dragon. Those who stood against her that day claim to have seen a dragon sweep the area with its fiery breath, rather than simply a woman with a longarmed weapon.

Grinning excitedly a young man jumps high into the air laughing. He has left the path of war to perfect his mastery of the sky. When he reaches the peak of his jump, he sprouts spectral wings and flies off into the distance.

These fearless warriors stand against dragons, demons, fiends and any other threats who would raise a hand against their homelands. Dragoons use their command of both the sky and ground to strike down their foes with deadly strikes.

Dragon's Bane

The Dragoon was a soldier born out of need in a distant land. Their homeland has been locked in a war against dragonkind for hundreds of years, leading to their soldiers to specialize in battling back against dragons. Their most notable ability is the Dragoon jump, which is powered by a magical gem each Dragoon receives upon completing their basic training.

Scourge of the Sky

The Dragoons have been blessed with the ability to soar high into the air like those they have taken up arms to destroy. These warriors are able to crash down from the sky using their weapons and body weight to drive any skyborn into the ground, or cause great damage to those already on land. Wings will not grant you safety from a Dragoon.

Creating a Dragoon

When creating a Dragoon, consider what brought them down the path of a specialized knight. They may have shown a certain aptitude which allowed them to become a Dragoon with ease, or perhaps were born into the role due to the history of their homeland. A Dragoon may have decided upon this path due to the stories of famed Dragoons of legends, hoping to become as powerful and respected as the knights they had heard about while they were growing up.

Consider why a Dragoon would choose to head out on an adventure. Are they seeking a specific dragon, hoping to slay an enemy of their nation? Could your Dragoon have unfinished business with a dragon from their past? Sometimes a Dragoon may set out for the sake of journeying around the land.

Quick Build

You can make a Dragoon quickly by following these suggestions. First make Strength your highest ability score, following with Dexterity. Second take the Soldier background.

Channel Divinity

When you take this oath at the 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.

Cover. As an action you are create an aetherial link with a nearby ally. All damage that ally would take is received by you instead. The link lasts a number of rounds equal to your Charisma ability modifier. You can break the link prematurely as a bonus action. The creature you are linked to must remain within 10ft. of you or the link is broken.

Flash. As an action your body flashes, all enemy creatures within 30ft. of you who can see you must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is blinded and has disadvantage on all battle actions against targets other than you for a number of rounds equal to your Charisma ability modifier. Targets are not blinded and have disadvantage for half as long rounded down on a successful save.

Aura of Veil

Starting at 7th level, allies within 10 ft. of you are protected by a divine veil. As a reaction, you can choose to redirect half the damage an ally would receive to yourself.

At the 18th level, the range of this aura is increased to 30 ft.

Shield Oath

Starting at 15th level, your oath of protection has allowed you to block attacks easier. Using your reaction, you can spend one hit die to reduce the attack roll by the result of the roll.

Hallowed Ground

Starting at 20th level, you mastered a technique to channel your will into an impregnable barrier. As an action, you create a barrier which blocks all damage for a number of rounds equal to half your Charisma ability modifier rounded down. You can do so once, refreshing after a long rest.

Red Mage

Like a lightning bolt streaking through the battlefield, she makes quick work of foe after foe. At the first sign of danger, the crimson beauty flips over the head of the foe behind her, letting loose a wave of energy as a parting gift.

A confident smrik spreads across the face of the veteran red mage. He unleashes spell after spell in quick succession, drawing on countless elements until his foe is annihilated.

As though a flower amonst a sea of weeds, the red mage leads their allies into battle. With a deep trust that they'll stay at their side, she turns her friends into the perfect dancing partners for this adventure, empowering them to match their grace.

Red Mages have drawn on a multitude of disciplines across the world, mixing black and white magic along with focused swordplay and style. All of these abilities have combined in this alluring mix of talent and flair, creating a hero worthy of becoming legendary.

Crimson Mage

Some fairy tales of Gyr Albania speak of the heroic deeds and daring adventures of mages clothed in crimson. These adventurers are known as Red Mages, and travel the world protecting the good in the world by drawing on both white and black magic, while mixing martial prowess into a flawless battle style.

Its Not About Fame

Their thirst for adventure, flashy style and renowned flair may lead many to believe that a Red Mage becomes an adventurer for the admiration of their fellow man, but that is not the case. Those who take the Red do so in order to take up arms to protect the good in the world and bring wrongdoers to justice. It is their heroic spirit which drives them to action, the garnered fame is just a perk.

Creating a Red Mage

When creating a Red Mage, you must consider why they may be heading out on their adventure. Did they become fed up with the oppressive nature of the world and seek the need to become a hero to the common man? They may have learned of a plot which endangers their home, perhaps the world as a whole and will stop at nothing to end it. Maybe it is simply a need to chase the thrill of adventure and become a hero of legend.

One key consideration to make as a Red Mage is where you came to learn your myriad of skills. Was it through the study of old tomes you discovered in an abandoned warehouse or library? Did you meet a mentor who saw great potential in you and introduced you to the art? Whatever the origin, you wield powerful skills with an artistic flair.

Quick Build

You can make a Red Mage quickly by following these suggestions. First make Charisma your highest ability score, followed by Dexterity. Second take the Folk Hero background. Third take the Fire Bolt, Jolt, Mage Hand and Prestidigitation cantrips, and the first level spells Chromatic Orb and Cure Wounds.

Your familiarity with old tales and stories allows you to see the magical secrets hidden in them.

See chapter 10 of the PHB for the general rules of spellcasting and the end of this document for the Red Mage spell list.

Cantrips

At 1st level, you know 4 cantrips of your choice from the Red Mage spell list. You learn additional Red Mage cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Red Mage table.

Spell Slots

Preparing and Casting Spells

The Red Mage table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

You prepare the list of red mage spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Red Mage spell list. When you do so, choose a number of Astrologian spells equal to your Charisma modifier + your Red Mage level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

For example, if you are a 3rd-level Red Mage, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With an Charisma of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell magic missile, you can cast it using a 1st-level or 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn't remove it from your list of prepared spells.

You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of Red Mage spells requires time spent in meditation, reliving past tales and events: at least 10 minutes for each spell you change.

By spending 1 flair point after taking the attack action you leap backwards through the air, landing upto 30ft. in a straight line behind you.

When you take this action, make a ranged spell attack against the target of your attack action, dealing 2d8 + your Charisma modifier force damage on hit.

Samurai

The young man stands before a ferocious beast, his blade still sheathed the villagers look on in horror as it closes in on its prey. With a smirk the man draws his blade and in a few lightning quick strokes, the beast falls with a thud.

The experienced veteran stands before a group of bandits. Their untrained strikes are easily dodged by the man, as he delivers blow after viscious blow, punishing each of their failed attempts on his life.

A young woman wanders into the city, her identity hidden beneath her shade. She hears of the oppression of the people in the village by the local lord. She nods to herself, knowing she has arrived at yet another town which would be better off without a master.

Far across the churning waves, beneath the rising sun, an island nation gave birth to a prolific style of swordplay. These noble warriors were sworn to their masters as their protectors, willing to give up their lives to see their duty complete. Honour or death was a common ideal for these disciplined soldiers.

Swordsmen of Legend

The Samurai are legendary swordsmen who lived by a code of honour. In service to the lords of their regions, they protected their lands with their lives and enforced their law without question. To do so, the Samurai nourished a timeless style of swordplay which remains mythic in its reputation to this day.

The Power Within

The Samurai draw on inner energies and an unshakeable discipline. These are the tools which the Samurai built their reputation. To take up and master the katana is to enter a league of your own, though not every samurai has been known to wield the blade for a master, some choosing to follow their own code and travel the world.

Creating a Samurai

When creating a Samurai, you have to decide how they became involved in the discipline. Were they born into the tradition, being the son of a Samurai or lord? Perhaps they fight in a self-taught style which they continually hone through their travels.

Ontop of their roots as a Samurai, you must consider why you fight as a Samurai. Are you on a quest on behalf of a lord, or directly protecting their master's lands. Perhaps they cast off their ties to their masters and teachers altogether and travel the world for their own gain, or the protection of the common man.

Quick Build

You can make a Samurai quickly by following these suggestions. First make Strength your highest ability score, following with Wisdom. Second take the Soldier background.

Warrior

A Roegadyn woman stands locked in combat with a hobgoblin. With each swing of his blade, she meets with ferocity and powerful blows. The battle rages on, the woman feeding off the ecstasy of battle, receiving succor with each blow she lands.

A man dashes into the heat of battle, his battleax swinging wildly around him. He lets out an earth shaking battle cry as he crushes the ground and all those around him with explosive force.

A lightly armored figure stands at his ally's sides. His powerful voice echoes out across the field, empowering his allies as he leads his comrades into battle, axe drawn and swinging like a tempest of steel and iron.

Like a symbol crash in an orchestra, a Warrior is an explosive force which stands out in any situation. Their booming voice, raw strength and powerful strikes are their tools for victory.

Indomitable Forces

The Warrior finds their roots in ancient tribes akin to barbarians. These fearless fighters are peerless in their control of a force which they call the inner beast. Warriors often come from tribal backgrounds in which they learn to nurture and control this inner animal, which in turn grants them beast like strength and ferocity. Warrior bands once roamed unsettled lands as nomads, enjoying the boons which nature offers and defending the weak from those who would do them harm.

Unending Rage

Not unlike nature itself, a Warrior has the potential to become a relentless force of destruction. Like a raging forest fire, or an all consuming tidal wave, a Warrior can unleash their inner beast to harness its rage. This state of being is known as berserking. While berserking, Warriors continually chase foes and defend allies, using their bloodlust to keep themselves in the battle as a threat.

Creating a Warrior

When creating a Warrior, one must consider their origins as a Warrior. Are you a descendant of the ancient tribes from which Warriors are able to draw their lineage? Perhaps you were a fledgling adventurer who found a mentor in the form of a former Warrior who passed on the secrets of the inner beast. Perhaps you had a natural attunement to the ways of the Warrior and have developed your skills without guidance.

You must also consider why you have set out on your life of adventuring? As a Warrior, have you decided to seek out dangerous challenges to sharpen your skills or sate the appetite of the hungry beast inside you? Perhaps you have taken up arms in defense of your tribe, a village or a loved one? Warriors set out for any number of reasons.

Quick Build

You can make a Warrior quickly by following these suggestions. First make Strength your highest ability score, following with Constitution. Second take the Outlander background.

White Mage

A quiet and well groomed man waves his cane around himself, drawing in magical energy from the land and calling forth it's power. With a flick of his wrist the land parted and erupted sending his foe toppling to the ground.

A gentle young woman rushes to their ally's side. Through prayer and reverence for the land, it's power is shared with her, allowing her to close the wounds of her dying friend.

A stern heavily robed figure approached the abomination, raised from the dead. Calling for shining light, she banishes the undead back to the abyss.

Serene and elegant, the White Mages commune with the world around them, borrowing power from elementals present throughout the word. They are level headed, respectful spell casters who are aware that overstepping one's bounds in the world of magic can lead to calamity, and seek to keep order within the magic world while mending the wounds of those around them.

One with the land

White Mage's strength stems from an art they refer to as conjury. Conjury calls upon the elements of earth, wind, and water and concentrates them to a potency at which spells can be weaved. Through practiced meditation on the essences of creation, conjurers draw forth and absorb magic from their immediate surroundings. A wand or cane made from unworked wood is then utilized to focus the magical energy until it manifests as the desired spell. Versed also in magicks that restore and strengthen, White Mages are regarded as accomplished healers.

Patrons of Light

White Mages find their roots in a society which revered nature as an ally, borrowing the power of the land and elementals to soothe wounds and protect from the wicked. Over time, the White Mages of the past overused this power causing the elementals to act out and smite the land, alongside the damage wrought by the opposing Black Mages, the world fell into a dark age. Today White Mages are few and far between, practicing the forbidden art to wield the powers of nature and light to drive off evil in protection of the world again.

Creating a White Mage

When creating a White Mage one must question how they came into the art of conjury and the profession of White Mage. Did a kindly mentor take you under their wing? Did your studies of magic from the past lead you to discovering how to draw power from the world you lived in? Perhaps the elementals which inhabit the land reached out to you and their whispers guided you to the path of a White Mage. Nonetheless a White Mage's role in the world is that of a protector, soothing the wounds of those who need it most, settling enraged elementals and driving the beings who bring destruction back from hence they came.

The Protectors of the Future

An elementalist uses the power of nature to control earth, wind and water in defense of the land. The spirit master uses the essence of the world alongside the magic within their allies to bring forth powerful healing spells. The Ampdapori makes use of the power of light to bring forth a powerful advantage against blasphemous invaders to their realm.

Ampdapori

Some White Mages focus on the role of repelling those who do not belong in the world from it, relying on light and holy magic to drive the undead and fiends from the world through destruction. An Ampdapori White Mage has taken up arms for this very purpose, using a mix of healing magic and holy magic to smite out blasphemous creatures from the land.

Xaela Tribes of the Azim Steppe

A Xaela's last name is the name of their tribe, rather than having a formal family name. They wear this name as a badge of honour and fight to protect their families. Each tribe has its own cultural ideas.
The Azim Steppe is an amazing large region of land where 51 known tribes are said to wander. It is not impossible for new tribes to form or disappear as people leave tribes to form their own or are assimilated into other groups.

Tribe Distinguishing Information
Adarkim The largest of the Xaela tribes. While not the most skilled at battle, they overwhelm with numbers, taking losses in stride, knowing that a future victory over a weaker tribe will replenish their ranks.
Angura A small tribe which keeps mainly to the mountainous region of northeastern Othard. The glare reflected by the everlasting glaciers upon which they travel has rendered this tribe's skin color a deep rusty tone.
Arulaq A tribe thought lost 200 years ago, only recently discovered once again living in a secluded valley in the mountainous north.
Avagnar Though defeated and absorbed by the Adarkim, several of the proud tribe's members still secretly use its ancestral name, knowing that it could mean death if they are discovered.
Bairon A middle-sized tribe of the southern deserts and masters of survival in the driest of climes, the Bairon are all trained from a very young age to collect and drink their own bodily fluids, allowing them the ability to venture deep into places no other tribe will.
Bayaqud A tribe of the steppe’s western edges. Women from the Bayaqud tribe will traditionally take several husbands, as did the tribe's founding matron 2000 years ago.
Bolir A small tribe that earns its living by collecting the dung of the beastkin herds which roam the steppes. The dung is dried, turned into charcoal in temporary kilns, and sold to other tribes.
Borlaaq A tribe of all women. While breeding with men from other tribes is allowed, if a male is born into the tribe, he is given up within a year of birth.
Buduga An all-male tribe which only increases its ranks through battle and kidnapping.
Dalamiq One of only a few Xaela tribes which has abandoned the nomadic lifestyle and built a small village on an islet in the middle of a two-malm-wide span of the great inner river. It is said they once worshipped the now-fallen lesser moon.
Tribe Distinguishing Information
Iriq A tribe that follows the Borlaaq, taking on any male children given up by the female warriors and raising them as their own.
Jhungid The second largest Xaela tribe. Mortal enemies with the Kharlu, the Jungid will spend the greater part of the year subjugating smaller tribes to swell their own ranks in preparation for an annual battle with the Kharlu--the winner gaining control over a large part of the eastern coastlands.
Kharlu The third largest Xaela tribe. Mortal enemies with the Jungid, the Kharlu will spend the greater part of the year subjugating smaller tribes to swell their own ranks in preparation for an annual battle with the Jungid--the winner gaining control over a large part of the eastern coastlands.
Khatayin A tribe which largely remains unseen, hunting goats in the mountains for nine moons of the year. The remaining three are spent at the foot of the great north range, where they survive off the dried meat they stocked.
Malqir A western steppe tribe characterized by its unique leader-choosing ritual which, instead of the usual test of brawn, is a game of Kharaqiq--a chess-like game played on a circular board divided into three rings.
Mankhad A costal tribe which fights with blow-darts made from bones dipped in the poison of the pufferfish. So practiced with the pipes are the tribe, that they can disable a target from 200 paces.
Mierqid A desert tribe which, over the course of a year, travels between over a hundred secret buried caches of supplies restocked with each annual visit.
Noykin Master trainers of the wild horses which populate the majority of steppe. It is said that the horsewives of the Noykin can break any beast if given but a week.
Olkund Selective breeding has seen the average height of the central steppe-dwelling Olkund tribe males reach over two and a half yalms. The females, for whatever reason, remain of an average height.
Dazkar Household duties such as cooking, cleaning, and childrearing are handled by the males of the Dazkar who, other than when on the move, rarely ever leave their family's yurts. Female Dazkar are tasked with hunting, and are known across the steppe as being some of the most accurate archers in the realm.
Tribe Distinguishing Information
Oronir All members of the Oronir tribe believe themselves to be direct descendants of Azim, the tribe's god of the sun.
Oroq The Oroq create sleds made of reeds dipped in horse fat to help move their possessions and young children about the inner grasslands.
Qerel The warriors of this tribe all wear complete suits of armor crafted from the bones of steppe tigers which they kill with their own hands upon their coming of age.
Torgud This desert tribe does not wear any clothes, choosing instead to cover their bodies almost entirely in a white paint created from mud, lime, and bone meal. The paint helps to reflect the relentless desert sun.
Tumet The children of the Tumet, upon seeing their tenth summer, are tied to a sacred tree while the remainder of the tribe packs up and moves to their next location. Those children who manage to break free from their bonds and catch up with the tribe at that next location, are given a name and allowed into the tribe.
Ugund When members of this tribe die, their heads are removed from their bodies and placed in a jar of fermented goat milk. Once the liquid has been drunk by the head (in other words, evaporated), the head is then buried under an anthill so that the tiny workers can carry the spirit to the afterlife. The journey is thought to be a terrible one, the road filled with ghosts of the damned, so ensuring the spirit is drunk helps ease the journey.
Uyagir One of a handful of Xaela tribes which have given up the nomadic lifestyle. The Uyagir reside in a system of limestone caves on the northern edge of the southern deserts which are believed to have been dug by a race of giant oliphant-like beetles which were placed on the land by the gods to punish the elder tribes that had grown too greedy.
Dhoro An elusive tribe that avoids contact with most other tribes. Lookouts are posted all about their camps with orders to flee given the moment an outsider is spotted.
Orben A tribe that rides up and down the great inner river on boats woven from reeds and reinforced with scales from their own skin.
Ejinn A river tribe that chooses to swim from place to place rather than walk or take boats. It is said that members of the Ejinn can hold their breaths for up to a quarter bell, and will often migrate while almost completely submerged in order to avoid contact with hostile tribes.
Tribe Distinguishing Information
Dotharl An extremely violent tribe with members who revel in massacre and are taught from a young age not to fear death. While they are quick to attack other tribes, mortality rates are high, ensuring that their numbers never grow too high.
Hotgo A tribe recently massacred by the Dotharl. The only members surviving are those who left the tribe to travel on their own and were not present during the killing. The Hotgo were known for their vibrant face paints which members would constantly change depending on their current mood.
Sagahl A tribe which sees all beastkin as equals with man, therefore refuses to eat or use them as beasts of burden. As a result, the diet of the Sagahl mainly consists of steppe shrubs and vilekin.
Kahkol A tribe made up of orphans and refugees from tribes defeated or destroyed. Many choose to combine the name of their old tribe with Kahkol.
Kha Unlike most of the Xaela, the Kha live on the fringes of the Xaela lands, actively seeking contact with non Auri peoples, introducing many aspects of those cultures into their own.
Mol A small tribe of devout worshippers of the elder gods, the Mol will consult with their deities (via a shaman conduit) before making any tribe-related decisions, from the direction of their next migration, to the beasts they will hunt each day for food.
Gesi The Gesi are masters of the slingspear, a mid-sized javelin carved from mammoth bone which, instead of being thrown by hand, is flung with a leather sling to improve range, speed, and killing power.
Kagon The Kagon are a nocturnal desert tribe who worship Nhaama, goddess of the moon and mortal enemy of Azim, god of the sun. Instructed by their goddess that to step into the sun is to succumb to the evil of Azim, they spend the daylight hours in their tents, only emerging to hunt and migrate at night. The result is an uncharacteristically pale skin for a group of people living in an almost eternally fair-weather locale.
Goro The Goro believe horses to be perfect beings, and each male and female, upon their coming of age, is married to a horse of the opposite sex. Reproductive mates are chosen by lots.
Tribe Distinguishing Information
Gharl Before each migration, the Gharl will fill a sacred urn with the soil of the place they just camped. This soil is then dumped upon arriving at the next location. This tradition has been carried out for thousands of years, leading people to believe that most the steppe is now all of one soil.
Dataq The Dataq cover quite possibly the most area in their migrations, for they rarely stop in one area for longer than a few bells. Sleeping is all done in the saddle, and tents are only used when the rains are heavy and unbearable.
Haragin The legends of this coastal tribe tell of a group of their ancestors who crafted a giant ship and sailed out across the endless eastern ocean. The explorers are said to have returned with tales of a terrible island covered in massive grey monoliths and inhabited by fire-breathing steel demons.
Ura This mountain-dwelling tribe is one of the few which instead of hunting, mine the precious ores of the peaks and trade them with the steppe tribes for food.
Moks A tribe invisible for the fact that its members are spread out across many different tribes (unbeknownst to those tribes). Communication between its members is done on the rare occasion when two tribes meet, through an ancient set of hand signals only recognizable by those who know what they are looking for.
Geneq In addition to the standard language used by most of the Xaela in cross-tribe communication, the Geneq employ a complex system of whistles and clicks which resemble the cloud- and wavekin of the steppe.
Horo To those who live the meager lifestyles of the steppedwellers, being overweight is a symbol of affluence and power. To appear heavier than one in their station, the members of Horo will drink copious amounts of water to bloat their bellies.
Himaa For reasons unknown, one out of every three pregnancies amongst the Himaa result in twins. As a result, over half the tribe's members have a doppelganger. This can prove an advantage during attacks, as it confuses the enemy into believing the dead have risen.
Malaguld One of the only tribes that accepts people of the Raen--those that have been exiled, or those who have fled persecution--into their circle.
Tribe Distinguishing Information
Urumet This desert tribe has the queer custom of travelling with their elders carried upon their shoulders. It is believed that in the flat desert, this gives the tribe the advantage of being able to see farther.
Qalli Also known as the songbirds of the steppe, the Qalli communicate through song, attaching a melody to their words to further add emotion to the meaning.
Qestir This tribe refuses to speak, believing that all words are lies, and that a man's actions are the purest form of communication.

Apendix F: Hausregeln

Das folgende Dokument enhält Hausregeln die ich für meine Sessions anwende, kampagnenspezifische Sachen haben ihren eigenen Abschnitt.

Charaktererstellung
  • Auf erstem Level kann jeder von euch ein Half-Feat wählen, ein Feat das einen Score um 1 erhöht und euch Proficiency mit einem Skill oder Tool gewährt.
Charakterstats
  • Auf den ersten 3 Leveln erhaltet ihr beim leveln die maximale Anzahl an HP durch euren Hitdice. Ab Level 4 rollt ihr HP oder wählt den Durchschnittswert.
  • Wenn Ihr für HP rollt, rolle ich ebenfalls. Ihr dürft euren Wurf durch meinen ersetzen, ohne diesen gesehen zu haben.
  • Für jeden INT Mod den ihr habt dürft ihr +1 zu einem Skill geben in dem ihr bereits proficient seid, der kein Int Skill ist. Ihr könnt diesen Bonus nur einmal pro Skill zuweisen.
    Stattdessen könnt ihr einen INT Mod von +3 verwenden um für einen Skill in dem ihr Proficient seid Expertise zu erhalten.
Gameplay
  • Wenn ihr mit einer zweihändigen STR Waffe eine Attacke landet und Schaden auswürfelt addiert ihr euren STR Bonus x1,5, aufgerundet, zum Schaden. Wenn euer STR Mod z.B. +3 ist, addiert ihr 5 aufgerundet zum Schaden.
  • Zwei Mal pro Long Rest könnt ihr eine Atempause einlegen.
    Eine Atempause erlaubt euch für 5 Minuten auszuruhen um euer Level/4 (mindestens einen) Hitdice zu verwenden.
  • Jeder startet die Session mit 1x Inspiration.
  • Ihr könnt Inspiration nicht auf euch selbst verwenden, nur auf andere Ziele. Wenn ihr Inspiration auf Verbündete anwendet, bekommen diese für einen Roll Advantage wie üblich.
    Ihr könnt Inspiration auch auf Feinde anwenden. Wenn ihr das tut haben diese Disadvantage auf den nächsten Roll oder müssen einen Damage Roll wiederholen.
  • Eine Potion trinken ist eine Bonus Action, eine Potion verabreichen ist eine Action.
  • Wenn ihr auf eine Falle trefft hört ihr es, in den meisten Fällen, "klicken". Ihr dürft eine kurze Reaktion auf das Klicken beschreiben und erhaltet Advantage oder Disadvantage auf euren Saving Throw, abhängig von eurer Entscheidung und der Falle.
  • Wenn 4 oder mehr identische Gegnern auf dem Schlachtfeld präsent sind, rollen diese ihre Initiatve als Trupp, jedoch mit Disadvantage.
  • Kritische Erfolge und Kritische Misserfolge funktionieren wie RAW.
  • PvP ist nur möglich wenn alle Beteiligten zustimmen.
  • Wir verwenden Verwundungsregeln, siehe Seite 2.

Für die Aktuelle Kampagne spezifisch

Charaktererstellung
  • Freie Verteilung von 84 Punkten zur Erstellung eures Charakters, maximal eine 20 ohne Boni durch andere Quellen, z.B. Racials oder Half-Feat.
Gameplay
  • Grundlegend schwierigere Encounter da eure Basestats höher sind.
  • Schätze und Münzen:
    Monster tragen keine Wertgegenstände bei sich. Warum sollten Sie auch? Stattdessen gibt es eine Chance, dass jedes Mal wenn ihr eine Kreatur tötet ein Kristall aus ihrem verbliebenen Äther entsteht. Jeder dieser Kristalle entspricht einem der sechs Elemente und kann verwendet werden um die Energie des Äthers darin freizusetzen. Da diese Kristalle sehr nützlich sind, haben sie einen gewissen Wert und können für Gil eingetauscht werden.
  • Jeder Charakter ist von Geburt an auf eines der sechs Elemente (Feuer, Wasser, Eis, Wind, Erde und Blitz) eingestimmt.
Feats
  • Das "Lucky" Feat ist nicht erlaubt.
  • Die UA Waffenfeats aus dem Skill UA sind nicht erlaubt, nur die Tool Feats.

Verwundung

Schaden hinterlässt normalerweise keine zurückbleibenden Effekte. Diese optionale Regel führt eine Methode ein um langfristige Effekte durch Schaden zu erleiden.

Unter den folgenden Umständen könnt ihr Wunden erleiden:

  • Wenn ihr von einem kritischen Treffer getroffen werdet.
  • Wenn ihr auf 0 HP fallt, ohne direkt zu sterben.
  • Ab Level 3, wenn ihr mehr als die Hälfte euer HP in einer Attacke verliert.

Wenn einer dieser Umstände eintrifft rollt ihr einen d20. Bei einer 1-10 erleidet ihr eine Wunde aus den nachfolgenden Tabellen. Bei einer 11-20 geschieht nichts. Ihr könnt nur eine Wunde pro Runde erleiden.

Wenn ihr eine Wunde erleidet rollt einen d4 um zu bestimmen welcher Teil eures Körpers verwundet wird.

d8 Körperteil
1-2 Arme
3-4 Beine
5-6 Körper
7-8 Kopf

Arten von Wunden

Es gibt vier verschiedene Arten von Wunden.
Leichte Wunden welche kleinere Nachteile im Kampf auslösen, schwere Wunden welche schwerwiegendere Nachteile im Kampf auslösen, tiefe Wunden die euch signifikant benachteiligen und verheerende Wunden die euren Charakter langfristig einschränken.
Wenn ein gewürfeltes Körperteil Ziel einer Wunde wird, erleidet es eine leichte Wunde.
Jedes Mal wenn ihr neu verwundet werdet, rollt erneut aus welches Körperteil betroffen ist.
Wenn ein Körperteil mit einer leichten Wunde erneut betroffen ist, erleidet ihr eine schwere Wunde, dann eine tiefe Wunde und zuletzt eine verheerende Wunde.
Ihr erleidet sämtliche Nachteile welche durch die aktuelle und alle vorangegangen Wunden hervorgerufen werden bis diese geheilt werden.

Wenn ein Körperteil bereits von einer verheerenden Wunde betroffen ist und erneut Ziel einer Wunde wird, erleidet ihr stattdessen einen System Shock (leicht abweichend vom System Shock im Dungeon Master's Guide Seite 273).

System Shock

Wenn eine Kreatur einen System Shock erleidet, muss Sie einen DC 15 Constituion Saving Throw bestehen oder einen der folgenden Effekte erleiden:

d10 Effect
1 Die Kreatur fällt auf 0 HP.
2-3 Die Kreatur fällt auf 0 HP, ist aber stabilisiert.
4-5 Die Kreatur ist bis zum Ende ihres nächsten Zuges stunned.
6-7 Die Kreatur kann bis zum Ende ihres nächsten Zuges keine Reaktionen verwenden und bekommt -10 auf alle Attack Rolls und Ability Checks.
8-10 Die Kreatur kann bis zum Ende ihres nächsten Zuges keine Reaktionen verwenden.

Behandeln von Wunden

Verschiedene Arten von Wunden benötigen verschiedene Arten von Behandlung.

Leichte Wunden können während einer Short Rest von jemanden behandelt werden der eine Aufladung eines Healer's Kit aufbraucht und mit diesem, oder dem Medicine Skill, proficient ist.
Ein DC13 Skillcheck ist nötig um die Wunde erfolgreich zu behandeln. Die Kreatur welche die Behandlung durchführt kann während der Short Rest keine Hitdice verwenden um HP wiederherzustellen.

Schwere Wunden können zu Beginn einer Long Rest auf selbe Art und Weise behandelt werden, der Skillcheck hat jedoch den DC18. Um sich von der schwerenn Wunde komplett zu erholen, darf die Long Rest nicht für mehr als eine Stunde unterbrochen werden und ihr könnt während dieser keine Wache halten sondern müsst diese mit Schlaf oder sehr leichten Aktivitäten verbringen. Ansonsten wird Sie zu einer Leichten Wunde abgeschwächt und nicht vollständig geheilt.

Tiefe Wunden benötigen neben ihrer Behandlung zusätzlich eine Woche Erholung, die nicht durch stressige Aktivitäten wie lange Reisen, Kämpfe und ähnliche Dinge unterbrochen wird.

Verheerende Wunden müssen intensiv behandelt werden und wären tödlich für normale Menschen. Ihr seid für dreißig Tage auf Erholung und leichte Aktivitäten beschränkt, während ihr euch mithilfe eures Äthers von den schlimmsten Verletzungen heilt. Nach dem Ablauf dieser Zeit, heilt die verheerende Wunde und wird zu einer tiefen Wunde.
