### Giant Soul Sorcerer (Revised) The giants once dwelled in a fabled realm known as Ostoria, a paradise for their folk that reflected their mastery of the mortal realm. In time, Ostoria fell, and the giants were scattered and broken. During that mythic era, the giants granted a few chosen individuals among the small folk a shard of their great power. These favored people were caught in the same tragedy that sundered Ostoria. Since that time, they have spread across the many worlds of the multiverse. Now and again, one of their descendants manifests the gifts imparted by the giants, granting them sorcerous magic that allows them to command the elements and gain the might of a giant. #### Giant Soul Features | Sorcerer Level | Feature | |:----:|:-------------| | 1st | Jotun Resilience, Mark of the Ordning | | 6th | Soul of Lost Ostoria | | 14th | Rage of Fallen Ostoria | | 18th | Blessing of the All Father | #### Jotun Resilience The resilience of giants flows through your body. At 1st level, you gain an AC of 13 + your constitution modifier when you aren't wearing any armor or holding a shield, and your hit point maximum increases by 1, and it increases by 1 whenever you gain a level in this class. Additionally, you can speak, read and write Giant, and gain proficiency in simple weapons. #### Mark of the Ordning At 1st level, you discover innate magical abilities within yourself that are based on your giant heritage. You gain an origin spell list based on your giant ancestor. Spells learned this way count as sorcerer spells for you, but don't count against the number of spells you know. These spells cannot be replaced when you level up. Additionally, when you reach 3rd level, you learn the spell *enlarge/reduce*, and can cast it by spending 2 sorcery points or by expending a spell slot. If you cast it using sorcery points, you can only target yourself with it, and can only choose the *enlarge* option. When you are under the affect of the spell cast this way and are not wearing any armor, you gain the following benefits: * The spell does not require concentration * Your strength score matches your charisma score, if it is not already higher. #### Soul of Lost Ostoria Starting at 6th level, your power over your ancient blood grows further. You gain the following benefits: * You add your Constitution modifier to the damage you deal with any sorcerer cantrip. * While under the effects of *enlarge/reduce* cast through your *Mark of the Ordning* feature, you gain an additional effect based on your giant ancestor. \columnbreak #### Rage of Fallen Ostoria Starting at 14th level, you gain the ability to channel the souls of your ancestors into your physical form. When you start casting a sorcerer spell on your turn and expend sorcery points or a spell slot, you can increase your size by one category – from Medium to Large, for example. This increase lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you die or are incapacitated. Until it ends, you gain the following benefits: * Your current hit points and your hit point maximum both increase by 1 per sorcerer level. * Your reach and the range of your cantrips both increase by 5 feet. * Your walking speed increases by 5 feet. * You have advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws. * You gain a bonus to the damage rolls of your melee weapon attacks; the bonus equals your Constitution modifier (minimum of +1). * Your strength score matches your charisma score, if it is not already higher. * Your melee weapon attacks gain the *siege* property. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest. #### Blessing of the All Father At 18th level, your Constitution score increases by 2, up to a maximum of 22. In addition, you can now use Rage of Fallen Ostoria twice between rests, but no more than once on a turn. If you use that feature while under its effects, its increases to your size, hit points, reach, and walking speed are cumulative. \pagebreak
