Creating a Sorcerer

Sorcerers often have obscure or quixotic motivations driving them to adventure. The most important question to consider when creating your sorcerer is the origin of your power. As a starting character, you'll choose an origin that ties to an array of varied species - but the exact source of your power is up to you to decide. Is it a family curse, passed down to you from distant ancestors? Or did some extraordinary event leave you blessed with innate magic but perhaps scarred as well?

How do you feel about the power coursing through you? Do you embrace it and master it, or revel in its unpredictable nature? Did you seek it out, or did it find you? Did you have the option to refuse it, and do you wish you had? Perhaps you feel like you've been given this power for a lofty purpose, or you might decide that the power gives you the right to do what you want, to take what you want from others. Maybe your power links you to a powerful individual in the world—the fey creature that blessed you at birth, the dragon who put a drop of its blood into your veins, the lich who created you as an experiment, or the deity who chose you to carry this.

Class Features

As a sorcerer, you gain the following class features.

Cantrips

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

Spell Slots

The Sorcerer table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these sorcerer 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.

For example, if you know the 1st-level spell burning hands and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast burning hands using either spell slot.

Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher

You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the sorcerer spell list.

The Spells Known column of the Sorcerer table shows when you learn more sorcerer spells of your choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 3rd level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability

Charimsa is your spellcasting ability for your sorcerer spells, since the power of your magic relies on your ability to project your will into the world. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a sorcerer spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Augmented Spell

When you cast a spell that forces a creature to make a saving throw to resist its effects, you can spend 4 sorcery points to change the first saving throw required for one target of the spell. If the original save is a physical attribute, such as Strength, Constitution, or Dexterity, you must choose one from that group. Similarly, if the original save is a mental attribute, such as Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma, it must remain one.

Careful Spell

When you cast a spell that forces other creatures to make a saving throw, you can protect some of those creatures from the spell's full force. To do so, you spend 1 sorcery point and choose a number of those creatures up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). A chosen creature automatically succeeds on its saving throw against the spell.

Delayed Spell

When you cast a spell, you can delay it occuring until the start of your next turn by spending 1 sorcery point (expending the spell slot as normal). When the start of your next turn begins, you can choose to delay it once more, for 1 more sorcery point.

Distant Spell

When you cast a spell that has a range of 5 feet or greater, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double the range of the spell.

When you cast a spell that has a range of touch, you can spend 1 sorcery point to make the range of the spell 30 feet.

Empowered Spell

When you roll damage for a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll a number of the damage die up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1). You must use the new rolls.

You can use Empowered Spell even if you have already used a different metamagic option during the casting of the spell.

Extended Spell

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

Heightened Spell

When you cast a spell that forces a creature to make a saving throw to resist its effects, you can spend 3 sorcery points to give one target of the spell disadvantage on its first saving throw made against the spell.

Quickened Spell

When you cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 action, you can spend 2 sorcery points to change the casting time to 1 bonus action for this casting.

Subtle Spell

When you cast a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point to cast it without any somatic or verbal components.

Twinned Spell

When you cast a spell that targets only one creature and doesn't have a range of self, you can spend a number of sorcery points equal to the spell's level to target a second creature in range with the same spell (1 sorcery point if the spell is a cantrip).

To be eligible, a spell must be incapable of targeting more than one creature at the spell's current level. For example, magic missle and scorching ray aren't eligible, but ray of frost and chromatic orb are.

Draconic Origin Spells

Dragon Ancestor

At 1st level, you choose one type of dragon as your ancestor. The damage type associated with each dragon is used by features you gain later.

Draconic Resilience

As magic flows through your body, it causes physical traits of your dragon ancestors to emerge. At 1st level, your hit point maximum increases by 1 and increases by 1 again whenever you gain a level in this class.

Additionally, parts of your skin are covered by a thin sheen of dragon-like scales. When you aren't wearing armor, your AC equals 13 + your Dexterity modifier.

Elemental Affinity

Starting at 6th level, when you cast a spell that deals damage of the type associated with your draconic ancestry, you can add your Charisma modifier to one damage roll of that spell. At the same time, you can spend 1 sorcery point to gain resistance to that damage type for 1 hour.

Dragon Wings

At 14th level, you gain the ability to sprout a pair of dragon wings from your back, gaining a flying speed equal to your current speed. You can create these wings as a bonus action on your turn. They last until you dismiss them as a bonus action on your turn.

You can't manifest your wings while wearing armor unless the armor is made to accommodate them, and clothing not made to accommodate your wings might be destroyed when you manifest them.

Draconic Presence

Beginning at 18th level, you can channel the dread presence of your dragon ancestor, causing those around you to become awestruck or frightened. As an action, you can spend 5 sorcery points to draw on this power and exude an aura of awe or fear (your choice) to a distance of 60 feet.

For 1 minute or until you lose your concentration (as if you were casting a concentration spell), each hostile creature that starts its turn in this aura must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed (if you chose awe) or frightened (if you chose fear) until the aura ends. A creature that succeeds on this saving throw is immune to your aura for 24 hours.

Raw Origin Spells

Raw Magic

Your magic comes straight from the source, unfiltered and unpredictable. Through your will you are able to control it, but this control can be loosened, causing greater energies to surge through you, potentially empowering your magic, but also with chaotic side effects. When you cast a sorcerer spell of 1st level or higher, you can choose to roll on both the Positive Surge and Negative Surge tables (using a separate roll for each) to cause both a positive and a negative side effect of the spell.

Magical Interference

Starting at 1st level, whenever a creature other than yourself within 30 feet of you casts a spell of 1st level or higher, you can use your reaction to force them to roll on both the Positive Surge and Negative Surge tables to cause both a positive and a negative side effect of the spell.

Close to the Weave

Beginning at 6th level, your unfiltered access to magic allows you to more easily manipulate your spells. You gain two additional Metamagic options of your choice.

Additionally, you regain 1 sorcery point when you complete a short rest.

Surge Control

At 14th level, you gain a measure of control over your raw magic surges. Whenever you roll on the Positive Surge or Negative Surge table, you can reroll the die and must use the new roll.

Unlimited Power

Beginning at 18th level, you are able to directly overcharge your spells at cost to your own well-being. When you roll damage for a sorcerer spell of 1st level or higher, you may spend a number of hit dice up to your Charisma modifier. You and any targets of the spell take force damage equal to the total rolled. You can use this feature only once per turn.

Discord of Many Things - Discord.gg/JSArr5p

Godtouched Origin Spells

Divine Soul

Starting at 1st level, you are imbued with divine magic, rather than arcane as other sorcerers are. You do not use the sorcerer spell list for your Spellcasting feature, instead you use the cleric spell list. All spells on the cleric spell list count as sorcerer spells for you, and the spells on the sorcerer spell list no longer count as sorcerer spells for you.

Additionally, you can speak Celestial, and you are able to use a holy symbol as your spellcasting focus.

Divine Destiny

At 1st level, your destiny is ordained by celestial powers, and fate itself can be bent to serve it. Work with your DM to determine what your divine destiny is, and how much you know about it. You have advantage on Intelligence and Wisdom checks to recall information or discover insights about your destiny.

If you fail an ability check, saving throw, or attack roll, you can roll 2d4 and add it to the total, possibly changing the outcome. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Channel Divinity

Beginning at 6th level, you are able to channel divine energy to fuel magical effects. Each Channel Divinity option listed below explains how to use it. When you use your Channel Divinity, you choose which option to use. You must finish a short or long rest to use your Channel Divinity again.

Some Channel Divinity effects require saving throws. When you use such an effect from this class, the DC equals your sorcerer spell save DC.

Blessing of Life. When you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, you can cause the creature to regain additional hitpoints equal to 1d8 + the spell's level, using your Channel Divinity.

Blinding Rebuke. When you are damaged by a creature within 60 feet of you that you can see, you can use your Channel Divinity as a reaction to cause a blinding flash of light to erupt in front of the target. The target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or be blinded until the end of its next turn.

Empowered Radiance. When you roll damage for a spell, you can use your Channel Divinity to deal additional radiant damage equal to the spell’s level + your Charisma modifier to each creature damaged by the spell.

Seraphic Form

At 14th level, your divine essence causes you to undergo a physical transformation. Your appearance takes on an otherworldly aspect, simultaneously beautiful, kind, and imposing. You gain proficiency with Intimidation and Persuasion, and your proficiency bonus is doubled for ability checks that use them.

Additionally, you are able to briefly conjure spectral wings to bear you aloft. As a bonus action you can conjure these wings, granting you a flying speed of 30 feet until the end of your turn. Whenever you fall, you descend 60 feet per round until you land, which you do safely. You choose the appearance of the wings, such as angelic or bat-like.

Martyrdom

Starting at 18th level, you are a divine beacon even in the darkest of times. When you are reduced to 0 hitpoints, a burst of divine energy is released from your body, affecting all creatures within 60 feet of you. Hostile creatures within the radius must succeed on a Charisma saving throw against your sorcerer spell save DC. A target takes 8d6 radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Friendly creatures within the radius gain 8d6 temporary hitpoints. Once you have used this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

Imperial Birthright

There is power in king’s blood. Your innate magic comes from your royal ancestry. Whether you are a far flung cousin of a great house, the child of a deposed prince, a secret bastard denied legitimacy, or the rightful heir to a kingdom, your bloodline is that of kings and emperors. You might be unaware of your lineage and of the source of your power, or perhaps you have always known yourself to be the true inheritor of a throne now held by usurpers.

Storm Sorcery

Your innate magic comes from the power of elemental air. Many with this power can trace their magic back to a near-death experience caused by the Great Rain, but perhaps you were born during a howling gale so powerful that folk still tell stories of it, or your lineage might include the influence of potent air creatures such as vaati or djinn. Whatever the case, the magic of the storm permeates your being.

Storm sorcerers are invaluable members of a ship's crew. Their magic allows them to exert control over wind and weather in their immediate area. Their abilities also prove useful in repelling attacks by sahuagin, pirates, and other waterborne threats.

Wintry Origin Spells

Covenant with Ice

Beginning at 1st level, you can shape ice as an action up to 30 feet away from you.

You can shape the ice around you, either creating ice from your hand, which can pour out as much as a 15 foot cube, or freezing up to a 15 foot cube of water. You can shape it or any other ice up to that size in any manner you choose and can move it within range as part of the same action. You can raise or lower it, though it must still touch the ground. It can be up to 15 feet in any dimension, but you can't shape it to trap a creature.

You can shape the ice to harm a creature. Make a spell attack against a target in range. Shards, tendrils, or spears race towards it. On a hit, the creature takes 2d6 cold damage and their speed is reduced by half until the end of their next turn. The damage increases to 4d6 at 5th level, 6d6 at 11th, and 8d6 at 17th. The ice can also freeze an object that isn't being worn or carried, can shatter nonmagical metals, and can crack stone.

You have a number of uses of this ability equal to twice your Charisma modifier (minimum of 2) and regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Cutting Northern Wind

At 6th level, you can emanate a wind whirling with snow. You can release or suppress this wind as a bonus action. When released, the area 15 feet around you is difficult terrain for all creatures except those of your choice, who, along with you, gain resistance to cold damage while in the radius. The wind moves with you, centered on you. At 18th level, the range increases to 30 feet.

Sorcerous Blizzard

Starting at 6th level, when you or a willing creature casts a spell within your Cutting Northern Wind that deals a damage type other than cold, you can change it to cold damage with 1 sorcery point.

When you or a willing creature within your Cutting Northern Wind deals cold damage to creature with a spell of 1st level or higher, your Cutting Northern Wind expands by 15 feet until the start of your next turn. At 18th level, it expands by 30 feet.

Permafrost

At 14th level, you gain immunity to cold damage, cold damage you deal ignores resistance, and as a reaction when you or a creature within your Cutting Northern Wind are hit by an attack or fail a Dexterity saving throw, you can reduce the damage taken by half your sorcerer level + your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1).

Snow Castle

Beginning at 14th level, over the course of one minute, you can choose an area of ice no larger than 150 feet on a side within 600 feet of you, or you can freeze an area of water of that size. You can reshape the ice in the area in any manner you choose. You can raise or lower the ice's elevation, create or fill in a trench, erect or flatten a wall, or form a pillar. The extent of any such changes can't exceed half the area's largest dimension. For example, if you affect a 150 foot square, you can create a pillar up to 75 feet high, raise or lower the square's elevation by up to 75 feet, and so on. You can't shape the ice to damage a creature in the area, but you can shape it to trap them. Each 5 foot section of the ice has an AC and hitpoints equal to your sorcerer level.

Additionally, you can designate one structure of your choice that you have created and shaped with this feature as your Snow Castle. Doing so makes the surrounding landscape in a 10 mile radius change to winter over the course of one month, and your Cutting Northern Wind extends to the entire 10 mile radius of the Snow Castle. You can't designate a structure as your Snow Castle again for 7 days, and once you do, the previous one melts.

Winter's Regal Armor

Starting at 18th level, you have gained a frozen heart and can don the attire of a winter monarch. You can spend 5 sorcery points as an action to don Winter's Regal Armor. Its appearance is up to you, it replaces or goes over your present clothes, and only you can wear it. For 1 minute or until you lose your concentration (as if you were concentrating on a spell), you gain the following benefits:

• You have resistance to all damage.
• Creatures who deal damage to you with a melee attack take your sorcerer level in cold damage.
• Cold damage you deal treats immunity as resistance.
• Creatures you kill with cold damage become petrified and stand as statues or shatter (your choice). They can only be returned to life by true resurrection and if you die.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

Vampiric Origin Spells

Blood Thirst

Starting at 1st level, while you may not be a vampire yourself, lacking their fangs or hatred of sunlight, your heritage bestows upon you a certain taste for blood. Drinking a pint of blood fulfills your need for food and water for a day. As an action, you can drink blood from the wounds of an incapacitated humanoid, or one that has died in the past minute, and gain temporary hitpoints equal to your spellcasting modifier. Additionally, you have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks and Wisdom (Survival) checks to find or track creatures that are bleeding.

Draining Spells

At 1st level, the arcane power granted by your bloodline drains your foes of their vitality. Once per turn, when you deal damage to a creature using a spell of 1st level or higher, you can regain a number of hitpoints equal to the spell's level.

Creature of the Night

Starting at 6th level, you have resistance to necrotic damage, and you gain darkvision with a radius of 60 feet. If you already have darkvision, its radius increases by 30 feet.

You can use your action to shapeshift into a Tiny bat-like form. While in this form, you can’t attack, speak or cast spells, your walking speed is 5 feet, and you have a flying speed of 30 feet. You can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check while in bat form. Your statistics, other than your size and speed, are unchanged.

Your equipment merges into your new form. You remain in bat form until you use an action to return to your normal form, or you are reduced to 0 hitpoints. You can shapeshift using this feature twice, and regain expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.

Greater Draining

Starting at 6th level, when you regain hitpoints using your Draining Spells feature, you can spend 1 sorcery point to triple the number of hitpoints you regain. You can only do so once per turn.

Blood Magic

Starting at 14th level, you can drain your own magical blood to empower your spells. Once per turn when you use one of your Metamagic features, you can choose to lose hitpoints instead of spending sorcery points. The number of hitpoints equals five times the spell's level (5 hitpoints for cantrips) per sorcery point the Metamagic would normally cost.

True Vampirism

At 18th level, your immense power allows you to fully embrace your vampiric heritage. You can cast the shapechange spell targeting yourself without components or expending a spell slot. When you do so, you can't assume any other form than a Vampire (Monster Manual page 297), and can't cast the spell again using this feature until you complete a long rest.

If you spend 1 hour inside a coffin, you can designate it your resting place for the purposes of your Vampire form's Misty Escape feature. If you cast shapechange on yourself using this feature while in the coffin, the spell lasts as long as you stay in the coffin. If you stay in the coffin for 10 continuous years in vampire form, the spell no longer requires concentration, and the duration becomes permanent.

Infernal Origin Spells

Devil's Progeny

At 1st level, the infernal blood you possess grants you innate understanding of devils and their machinations. You can speak, read, and write Infernal, and gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Deception, Persuasion, or Intimidation.

Additionally, whenever you make an ability check to conceal or discover a hidden agenda or other deceptive loophole in a contract, deal or other type of bargain you make, you can add double your proficiency bonus to the check.

Legions of Avernus

At 1st level, you can harness the tyrannical nature of Baator to guide your allies, imbuing your barked orders and commands with magical impetus. Whenever an ally within 60 feet of you that can hear you misses an attack, you can use your reaction to allow them to reroll the die and take the new result. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1), and these uses recover once you finish a long rest.

Iron Above, Iron Below

At 6th level, your magic begins to take on aspects of the Iron City of Dis, fortifying your mind against trickery and outside intrusion, as well as the City of Chains that lies in

the layer below anchored perilously its underside. You have advantage on ability checks to discern illusions, and on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.

As an action, you can spend 2 sorcery points to cause infernal chains to erupt from the ground underneath a creature up to 60 feet away. That creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the chains coil around them and they are restrained. A creature restrained by the chains can use its action to make a Strength or Dexterity check (its choice) against your spell save DC. On a success, it frees itself and the effect ends.

Infernal Concordat

At 14th level, you gain the unearthly glibness of infernal pactmakers, and the ability to enforce contracts as they do. Whenever you make an ability check using the skill gained by your Devil's Progeny feature, you have advantage on the roll.

Additionally, whenever you personally conduct a deal, transaction, or other form of bargain, you can spend 3 sorcery points and use an action to conjure a magically binding contract. The contract states, with exact wording, the obligations and terms that each party is bound to, and the consequences of breaking the agreement.

If all involved parties sign the contract of their own volition, they are subjected to the effects of a geas spell, as if cast by you, and cannot make a saving throw. When cast in this manner, the spell does not charm affected creatures, compels them to carry out their obligations as listed in the contract, and lasts until the obligations are completed. If a creature breaks the agreement, or geas is successfully dispelled from them, all involved parties are instantly made aware of the event.

Will of Asmodeus

At 18th level, you take on the inscrutable nature of the Lord of the Ninth himself. Any magic or ability that would determine if you are telling the truth indicates you are being truthful, if you so choose, and you can't be compelled to tell the truth by magic.

Additionally, you can use the full force of your infernal magic to impose your will on a creature that would otherwise do you harm. When you are targeted by an attack or spell, you can use your reaction and spend 5 sorcery points to force the attacking creature to make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is charmed by you until the end of your next turn, and you can choose to have the creature immediately move up to its speed and perform the attack or spell against a new target of your choice. While charmed, the creature uses your spell save DC in place of its own.

Abyssal Origin Spells

Unholy Speech

At 1st level, the tongue of demons comes as naturally to you as breathing. You can speak, read and write Abyssal.

Dark Reconstitution

Also at 1st level, you take on the unnatural resilience of a demon, allowing you to shrug off blows that would fell lesser mortals. Your hit point maximum increases by 1, and increases by 1 again whenever you gain a level in this class.

Additionally, when you take damage, you can use your reaction to halve the damage taken. Afterwards, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier + your sorcerer level (minimum of 1). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Unhallowed Ground

At 6th level, you can infuse abyssal power into your destructive spells, leaving chaotic energy in their wake. When you cast a spell of 1st level or higher that deals damage and has an area of effect, you can spend 1 sorcery point to fill its area of effect with chaotic energy. The energy is difficult terrain, and at the start of your next turn it explodes, dealing force damage equal to your Charisma modifier to any creatures within it. The chaotic energy then disappears.

Obliterate

Also at 6th level, your power can eliminate any obstacle in your path, living or otherwise. Sorcerer spells you cast deal double damage to objects and structures.

Demonic Assimilation

At 14th level, the vile corruption that flows in your veins grants you abilities common to the greatest of demons. You have advantage on saving throws against poison and gain resistance to poison damage, as well as either fire, cold, or lightning damage. As an action, you can speak a word of power and magically teleport up to 60 feet to an unoccupied space you can see.

Reality Breach

At 18th level, you have attained true mastery over your demonic blood and can rend wide reality itself, creating a gateway to the chaotic and destructive forces of the Abyss. As an action, you can spend 6 sorcery points to tear open an abyssal breach in an unoccupied space within 60 feet of you, which persists for 1 hour or until you lose your concentration (as if you were concentrating on a spell). Each creature within 30 feet of the breach as it opens must make a Constitution saving throw, taking 7d6 force damage on a failed save or half as much on a successful one. A creature must also make this saving throw whenever it comes within 30 feet of the breach or starts its turn there.

If you maintain concentration on the breach for its whole duration, it stabilizes, no longer dealing damage and becoming dormant for 1 month, when it can be closed by dispel magic cast at 5th level or above or if you use your action to do so. After 1 month, it becomes a 10 feet tall, 10 feet wide stable portal, serving as a gateway between a random layer of the Abyss (determined by the DM) and the plane on which this feature was originally used. The presence of such a breach is anathema to natural life, killing and withering all plants within a mile radius. The breach remains until a month passes, you die, you create another stabilized breach, or it is forcibly closed by the will of a demon lord, dispel magic cast at 9th level, or similarly powerful effects.

Sunder

2nd-level necromancy

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self (30-foot line)
• Components: V, S, M (a piece of broken stone)
• Duration: Instantaneous

You send out a blast of dark chaos energy in a line 30 feet long and 5 feet wide in a direction you choose. Each creature in the line must make a Constitution saving throw. A creature takes 2d4 necrotic damage and 2d4 force damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Any objects or structures in the path of the spell takes twice as much damage.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the necrotic and force damage each increase by 1d4 for each slot level above 2nd.

Ysgardian Ancestry

The magic that flows through your veins stems from the Heroic Domains of Ysgard, a plane of warfare, battle and revelry where nothing is truly permanent - the dead are resurrected every dusk and dawn, and the landscape shifts and moves even as its crossed. The martial prowess infused in its halls, battlefields and peoples has been inherited by you. You may have been blessed by the spirit of a mighty warrior, or been touched by the energies of Ysgard in the aftermath of a great battle. No matter the cause, your warlike magic makes you adept in all theatres of battle and drives you on to ever more grand and dangerous challenge.

Unending Valour

At 18th level, your magic has assimilated the most potent aspect of Ysgard - the ability to return to life after death, and you can call upon the spirits of the plane to aid you in times of great need. As an action, you can spend 5 sorcery points to summon three warrior spirits that appear in unoccupied spaces you can see within 60 feet.

These warrior spirits take the form of Veterans (MM 350), except their hit points are equal to twice your sorcerer level, their weapon attacks count as magical, and they have a bonus to attack rolls equal to your Charisma modifier. The spirits are friendly to you and your companions, acting on your initiative. They linger and obey your verbal commands (no action required) for 1 minute, until you lose concentration (as if you were casting a concentration spell) or they die. If you don't issue a command to the spirits, they attack the most dangerous hostile creature they can see. Once you've summoned these spirits, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

Additionally, when you die, you are revived next dawn at the last location you finished a long rest, as if true resurrection had been cast on you. You possess all the equipment you wore or carried at the time of your death, even if your body was destroyed by disintegrate or similar effects; equipment taken from your body after death reappears with you, vanishing from its current location. Once you are resurrected by this feature, you cannot be resurrected by it again until 7 days have passed.

Phoenix Origin Spells

Ignite

At 1st level, you gain the ability to start fires with a touch. As an action, you can magically ignite a flammable object you touch with your hand—an object such as a torch, a piece of tinder, or the hem of drapes.

Phoenix Mantle

At 1st level, after you cast a spell that deals fire damage of 1st-level or higher, you can wreath yourself in a bird-shaped column of flame until the end of your next turn. For the duration, you gain the following benefits:

• Once on each turn, when a creature within 5 feet of you damages you, you can deal fire damage to it equal to 1d6 + your Charisma modifier.
• You shed bright light in a 30-foot radius around you, and dim light for an additional 30 feet.

Violent Rebirth

At 6th level, the elemental fire within you refuses to let you die. When you are reduced to 0 hit points, you can spend 2 sorcery point (no action required). You are instead reduced to 1 hit point, and each creature within 10 feet of you takes 1d6 fire damage.

If you use this feature while under the effects of your Phoenix Mantle, it deals that damage to every creature within 20 feet instead.

Rejuvenating Flame

Starting at 14th level, the magic from your flames restores your form. When you expend a spell slot to cast a spell that includes a fire damage roll, you regain hit points equal to the slot's level + your Charisma modifier.

Form of the Phoenix

At 18th level, whenever you use your Phoenix Mantle, you can choose to enhance it. If you do so, your phoenix mantle lasts for 1 minute and gains the following additional benefits:

• You have a flying speed of 40 feet and can hover.
• When you cast a spell or use a class feature that deals fire damage, you can add your Charisma modifier to one damage roll of that spell or feature.
• If you use your Violent Rebirth feature, it deals an additional 3d6 damage to each creature.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

Aberrant

Your being has been touched by forces beyond this world. Mind Flayers, Aboleths, Beholders, Great Old Ones, aberrations such as these wield strange and chaotic powers, often psionic in nature. You and your magic seems to exist in many states at once, arcane and psionic, here and not here, regular person and eldritch mutant.

Variant: Intelligent Psionic

Psionic powers are traditionally associated with Intelligence. At your DM's discretion, you can gain the following additional feature at 1st level:

Your spellcasting ability for your Sorcerer spells becomes Intelligence. Whenever a Sorcerer feature refers to your Charisma modifier, you can use your Intelligence modifier instead.

Astral Facet
