PART I

Introduction

Fire Emblem D&D

Welcome to Anna's Tavern! Designed for D&D 5e, this source book will provide players and DMs with all of the tools and options needed to play a campaign set in a world inspired by the Fire Emblem games.

If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to tag us on twitter with a tweet, or join the Brother Ming Games discord server!

How to Use This Book

The contents of this book builds upon the core system of D&D 5th edition, but it is meant to be used as a standalone source book.

All of the players at the table must create characters using ONLY the races and classes available in this book. Spells, Feats, and Equipment can all be taken from any other D&D 5e source book.

Step 1: Pick Race

Same as in D&D 5e, players begin by picking a race to play. In the world of Fire Emblem, there are 3 primary races: Beorc (humans), Laguz (shapeshifters), and Branded (half breeds).

Beorc use the variant human rules, and are identical to their PHB (players handbook) Human counterparts.

Laguz are unique to the world of Fire Emblem. They are shapeshifters who can change between a humanoid form and their bestial form.

Unlike a druid's Wild Shape, they retain their own ability scores that are only slightly modified instead of taking on an entirely new static set of ability scores. They also do not gain a second pool of hit points, but instead continue using their own hit points.

Laguz are generally weaker than Beorc in their human form, but significantly stronger when in their bestial form. Branded on the other hand are special individuals with incredible aptitude in anything they do, but are persecuted by both races.

Step 2: Pick Starting Class

This is where Anna's Tavern will significantly deviate from the standard form of D&D 5e. In the PHB, players have a choice from several base classes, and as they level up, they simply improve on their chosen class's abilities, or multi-class and mix and match the different class abilities.

In Anna's Tavern, players will select a starting class from a list of 6 options. As you level up, you will be able to promote into more powerful classes. These promotions happen at level 2, 7, and 14. For example, a player who starts off as a Journeyman may promote into a Brigand, Fighter, or Soldier at level 2. If they promote into a fighter, then they may then promote into a Warrior, War Master, or General at level 7.

Each class has multiple branching promotion options, creating a large class tree with hundreds of potential character builds.

Step 2.5: No Backgrounds or Multiclassing

The character creation of this book is balanced around not needing the additional proficiencies offered by background options. You will gain additional skill proficiencies when you promote into higher tiered classes.

There is also no multiclassing. Once you have picked your starting class, you cannot multi class into a second starting class.

Step 3: Have Fun!

The most important part of D&D is to have fun. The second most important part is to listen to your DM. If a design decision in this book does not work for your group or your DM, change it! It's your game, play it how you want.

With that said... I do have some homebrew and playstyle recommendations.

Considerations

This book was designed and playtested with the following homebrew rules and general guides in place:

  • Interacting with items, such as consuming a potion, generally uses a bonus action unless otherwise stated.
  • Counterspell does not exist.
  • Haste does not exist.
  • Campaigns begin at level 2 and end around level 15.
  • Progression uses milestones, not XP.
  • Jumping is a bonus action that allows a character to move up to their Strength ability score in feet and does not count against their movement. (Standing jumps without a running start moves you half as much).
  • Spell Scrolls can be used by anyone.
  • Characters can freely swap what they are holding in their hand(s) with items in their inventory at the START of their turns, but cannot do so after they've taken any kind of action.

Printed Version

The eventual goal of Anna's Tavern is to replace all of the images in this supplement with original fan art commissioned by us (either for Anna's Tavern specifically or re-using art from Anna's Roundtable). Pre-orders for this printed version likely will not begin until Q4 of 2025 at the earliest.

PART III

Races of Fire Emblem

Races of Fire Emblem

Beorc (Humans)

Beorc, more commonly known as Humans, are as varied as they are plentiful. Although they lack the physical strength and longer lifespan of Laguz, they are quick to populate and have settled throughout the land. Crafty by nature, humans are much more likely to invent, build, and research than the Laguz. They have created cultures, developed magics, and built cities that last for generations far beyond the reach of any single human's memory.

Human Traits

Humans are widespread and common. The traits they can have greatly depend on their surroundings.

Age. Humans reach adulthood in their late teens and live less than a century.

Size. Humans vary widely in height and build, from barely 5 feet to well over 6 feet tall. Regardless of your position in that range, your size is Medium.

Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Ability Score Increase. Two different ability scores of your choice increase by 1.

Skills. You gain proficiency in one skill of your choice.

Human Versatility. You gain one feat of your choice.

Branded

As their name suggests, a Branded is marked with a special brand somewhere on their body. This brand is the result of their beorc and laguz parentage. Despite the racial mixture, Branded mainly appear like normal beorc, lacking the chimeric features of the laguz as well as their ability to transform into an animal form. Branded individuals however retain the laguz's longer lifespan, but to a limited extent. Branded individuals also tend to have unusual eye and hair colors for a beorc.

Branded Traits

The Branded are similar to humans in many ways, but their mixed blood can manifest in a variety of inexplicable ways.

Age. Branded reach adulthood in their late teens but have decelerated aging compared to a human, allowing them to live up to two centuries long.

Size. Branded vary widely in height and build like humans, from barely 5 feet to well over 6 feet tall. Regardless of your position in that range, your size is Medium.

Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Incredible Aptitude. One ability score of your choice increases by 2, and 2 other ability scores of your choice increase by 1.

Skills. You gain proficiency in one skill of your choice.

Branded Heritage. Select a single level 1 or 2 spell from the wizard spell list with approval from your DM, this spell should reflect your personal nature, must have a casting time of 1 action, and cannot be a ritual spell.

You can cast this spell at will, requiring no material components. Constitution is your spellcasting ability for this spell if you do not have another Spellcasting Ability. Whenever you cast this spell, your hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to your level. This reduction lasts until you finish a long rest. You cannot use this feature if this would reduce your hit point maximum to 0.

Starting at level 5, you may instead cast this spell as a 3rd level spell. This increases to 4th level at level 9, 5th level at level 13, 6th level at level 17, and 7th level at level 20.

Playing as a Branded

The Branded are often treated poorly by both of their parent races. The laguz refer to them as "Parentless" and generally refuse to acknowledge their existence if a Branded individual stands before them. In some cases, laguz have been known to hunt down the Branded.

The Branded are often referred to as "Half-Breeds" by beorc, leading to persecution and even execution if their Brand is known. Because they closely resemble beorcs, most Branded tend to live among them, though most live quiet, private lives to hide their decelerated aging.

The children of a Branded may or may not become a Branded themselves. However, the brand may resurface many generations later in an unwitting descendant even if they have two beorc parents with no brands.

RACE OPTIONS | HUMANS

Laguz Transformations vs Druid Shapeshift

Laguz can transform into the shape of a beast, but unlike D&D 5e's druid shape shifting, you do not simply use a totally different statblock. Thematically, a Laguz transformation is an physical ability. You are still yourself, transforming into your animal form, while druids are channeling the form of a creature they've seen through magic.

Setting up on Roll20

To quickly transform into your animal form as a Laguz, simple create a "Laguz Band" item on Roll20 with the correct MODS value.

When you transform, all you'll need to do is uncheck any weapons and armor you are wearing, then check the Laguz band item.

As such, when a Laguz transforms into their animal form, they gain stat bonuses to their character's innate stats and new features. To easily facilitate these transformations on roll 20, all you need to do is create a "laguz band" item in your inventory that can be equipped to modify your stats and AC.

To use on Roll 20

Depending on your Laguz race, create a Laguz band, then paste the corresponding MODS property below into your Laguz band's MODS value.

When equipping the Laguz Band, you will need to unequip any other armor or shields you have equipped for your AC to be accurately calculated by Roll20's character sheet.

MODS properties need to be capitalized for the value to be applied.

Brigand Crafting

You've learned to craft basic necessities in order to survive. Though crude, they can often make the difference between life and death when living without the luxuries of civilization. These items have little to no value to others.

If you have the required supplies, you can attempt to craft the following items after spending 30 minutes gathering, purchasing, and working components. On a failure, all of the materials are wasted.

Crude Poultice

Adventuring Gear

  • Requirements: Herbalism Kit
  • Difficulty: DC 10 Wisdom (Herbalism Kit) check
  • Weight: 1 lb.

Crude Poultice. As an action, you can spread the Crude Poultice to stabilize a creature that has 0 hit points without needing to make a Wisdom (Medicine) check. After 5 minutes, a stabilized creature with 0 hit points restores 1d4 + 1 HP.

  • Difficulty: DC 10 Wisdom (Smith's Tools) check
  • Weight: 12 lbs

While you are not wearing any armor, your Armor Class equals 10 + your Constitution modifier + your Wisdom modifier. You can use a shield and still gain this benefit. You do not gain this benefit if you are shapeshifted.

Savage Blow

When you make your first attack on your turn, you can decide to attack savagely. Doing so gives you the following:

  • advantage on melee weapon attack rolls using Strength during this turn
  • resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage
  • attack rolls against you have advantage until your next turn

Mountain Fighter

While you aren't wearing heavy armor, your speed is increased by 10 feet. Additionally, difficult terrain in the wilderness does not impede your movement.

Pirate Variant

If your character has taken to a life of piracy on the open seas rather than highway robbery, your Mountain Fighter feat is instead replaced with Marine Fighter. Make sure to read the rules on underwater combat as well. (PHB pg 198)

Marine Fighter

While you aren't wearing heavy armor, your swimming speed is equal to your walking speed.

Fighter Style

At 3rd level, you adopt a particular style fighting for your banditry. Depending on your needs as a brigand, choose one of the following styles to learn:

Crafty Fighter

You become skilled at constructing traps in order to ambush prey. It only takes you 10 minutes to create a pitfall, rope trap, or various other ambush devices to catch unsuspecting prey off guard. The number of creatures your trap can affect is equal to 2 for every 10 minutes you spend constructing the trap (maximum 12 after 1 hour).

When a creature approaches your trap, they must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier) or stumble into your contraption. A creature caught in your trap is Restrained.

A creature restrained this way can spend it's action to break free by passing a Strength throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier). An unrestrained creature can use its action to free another creature within its reach from your trap.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a short or long rest.

Wary Fighter

You do your best work at night, prowling the shadows to stalk prey and escape dangers. Your familiarity with the night has given you an intuitive understanding of a few magic spells.

As an action, you can cast darkness, darkvision, pass without trace, or silence, without providing material components. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a short or long rest.

Extra Attack

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

Intimidating Presence

At 6th level, your menacing glare is so powerful that you can use it to instill absolute terror in others.

As an action, choose a number of creatures equal to half your level (rounded up) that you can see within 30 feet of you. If the creature(s) can see and hear you, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier) or be frightened of you. This effect ends if the creature ends its turn out of line of sight or more than 60 feet away from you.

If the creature succeeds on its saving throw, you can’t use this feature on that creature again for 24 hours.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a short or long rest.

Second Wind (2)

At 6th level, you can use your second wind feature twice before need to take a rest.

Savage Blow (2)

Skilled Rider

You have advantage on saving throws made to avoid falling off your mount. If you fall off your mount and descend no more than 10 feet, you can land on your feet if you’re not incapacitated.

Additionally, mounting or dismounting a creature costs you only 5 feet of movement, rather than half your speed.

Outdoor Fighter

You excel at fighting in the outdoors with plenty of open space, allowing you to run down your foes, whether you're mounted or not.

If you move at least 20 feet straight towards a creature and then hit it with a weapon attack on the same turn, the creature takes an extra 1d8 bludgeoning damage.

At 3rd level, you learn to efficiently rescue allies by bringing them atop your mount. When you or a willing creature move within 5 feet of each other, you can use your reaction to pull them atop of your mount. The target creature must be a size smaller than your mount, and you cannot have more than 1 creature with you on your mount at a time.

A rescued creature can spend half of their movement to dismount, or you may use an action to safely dismount them within 5 feet of your mount. You can force an attack targeted at the rescued creature to target you instead.

Attack Command

At 5th level, you learn to command and ride your mount expertly, allowing them to take the attack action on their turn without knocking you off.

Aegis

At 6th level, while you are mounted, you can give yourself, your mount, and a rescued creature on your mount advantage on a saving throw against a single spell or other magical effect. If the effect would deal half damage on a successful save, it instead deals no damage, and only half damage on a failed save.

If the effect called for a Dexterity saving throw and your mount succeeds on it, any creatures riding the mount automatically succeed on the saving throw as well.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.

Desperation

At 10th level, your bond with your mount allows you to follow each others attacks effortlessly.

After your mount hits a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can use your reaction to make a single melee weapon attack against the same creature.

PHB, pg. 198

Flying Mounts

Flying mounts behave the same as regular mounts, but the following rules should be remembered during play:

If you fall off your mount, or if your mount becomes incapacitated, you will fall towards the ground at a rate of 500 feet per round. If it is not your turn, you will fall 500 feet before the start of your turn.

Alternatively, if you jump off of your mount on your turn, you will fall 500 feet by the end of your turn. This rapid descent can only be interrupted by a reaction (such as the Feather Fall spell.)

XGE, pg. 77

At the end of a fall, a creature takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage for every 10 feet it fell, to a maximum of 20d6. The creature lands prone, unless it avoids taking damage from the fall.

PHB, pg. 183

Skilled Flier

You have advantage on saving throws made to avoid falling off your mount. If you fall off your mount and descend no more than 10 feet, you can land on your feet if you’re not incapacitated.

Additionally, both you and your mount have advantage on Dexterity saving throws while flying at least 30 feet in the air.

Fletching

As you've dedicated yourself to the bow, so to have you learned to craft the ammunition required for archery.

Spellcasting

Spending your time traversing and understanding the wilderness, you have learned to use the magical essence of nature to cast spells on the Ranger Spell List. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting.

Spell Slots

The Archer table shows how many spell slots you gain at each level to cast your ranger 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.

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

Spells Known

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

The Spells Known column of the Archer table shows when you learn more ranger 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 or 2nd level.

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

Spellcasting Ability

Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your spells, since your magic draws on your attunement to nature.

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 ranger 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 +

Archery Style

At 3rd level, you adopt a particular style of archery techniques as your specialty. Depending on the type of training you focus on, choose one of the following styles to learn:

Twined Archery

On your first ranged weapon attack each turn, you may target two creatures that is within 5 feet of each other instead of just one creature. Roll your attack against each creature separately.

Hurtful Archery

You learn to concentrate on targeting a creature's exposed wounds with your arrows.

When you hit a creature with a ranged weapon attack, it takes extra damage equal to your proficiency bonus if it is missing any of its hit points.

Slaying Archery

You learn how to slay giant monsters with precise bow strikes. You gain advantage on ranged weapon attacks against large or larger creatures.

You can forgo the advantage on a ranged weapon attack against a large or larger creature to gain a bonus to damage rolls equal to half your level (rounded up).

Extra Attack

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

Warding Arrow

At 6th level, you have combined your archery skills with your knowledge of magic to design a arrow enchantment meant for thrwarting other spellcasters.

When you see a creature casting a spell within 120 feet of you, you can use your reaction to try and foil their spellcasting by launching a imbued arrow towards their general vicinity.

The target creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC, or their spell fails and has no effect.

If the spell being cast is of 3rd level or higher, the target creature has advantage on the saving throw.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.

Combat Arts

Unlike soldiers who are drilled to fight in a unit or fighters who rely physical Strength, those who discipline themselves to the mastery of weapons are able to learn special skills and techniques known as Combat Arts.

The arts you can learn are listed in the "Mercenary Combat Arts" section at the end of this class's section. The Arts Known column of your class table shows you how many Combat Arts you can learn in total. Each time you gain a level, you can replace one Combat Art you know with a different one that you are able to learn.

Arts Dice

Characters who use Combat Arts have Arts Dice, which are d8s. Combat Arts require Art Dice to use, and Arts Dice are expended once used. You regain all of your expended Arts Dice when you finish a short or long rest.

The Arts Dice column of your class table shows when you gain more Arts Dice. Each Combat Art specifies how many Arts Dice it uses.

Thieves’ Cant

During your rogue training you learned thieves’ cant, a secret mix of dialect, jargon, and code that allows you to hide messages in seemingly normal conversation. Only another creature that knows thieves’ cant understands such messages. It takes four times longer to convey such a message than it does to speak the same idea plainly.

In addition, you understand a set of secret signs and symbols used to convey short, simple messages, such as whether an area is dangerous or the territory of a thieves’ guild, whether loot is nearby, or whether the people in an area are easy marks or will provide a safe house for thieves on the run.

Rogue Crafting

Your training as a rogue has taught you how to craft the basic tools of your trade, an important skill when purchasing said tools can often draw unwanted eyes.

You can always craft the following items after spending an 10 minutes gathering and working components.

Lockpick (Single Use)

  • Difficulty: DC 10 Wisdom check
  • Weight: 1 lb.

Lockpicks. Arguably the most important of all thieves' tools. Though this is no replacement for a proper set of thieves' tools, it still gets the job done in a pinch.

Shiv

  • Difficulty: DC 10 Wisdom check
  • Weight: 1 lb.
  • Damage: 1d4 Piercing
  • Properties: Finesse, Ligh⁠t

Shiv. There are no shortage of sticky situations a rogue can find themselves in. Crude but effective, a makeshift shiv can be the difference between life and death.

BEGINNER | ROGUE

Sneak Attack

You know how to strike subtly and exploit a foe’s distraction. Once per turn, you can deal extra damage to one creature you hit with an attack if you have advantage on the attack roll. The attack must use a finesse or a ranged weapon.

The amount of extra damage is show in the Sneak Attack column of the Rogue table, and increases as you gain levels in this class.

You don’t need advantage on the attack roll if another enemy of the target is within 5 feet of it, that enemy isn’t incapacitated, and you don’t have disadvantage on the attack roll.

Pass

You can enter and leave a hostile creature’s space without treating their space as difficult terrain. If a hostile creature has at least one other creature hostile to it within 5 feet, it cannot make an attack of opportunity against you.

Stealth

At 3rd level, you master the ability to remain unnoticed, even during a fight. If a creature has multiple creatures hostile to it that it can see, including you, it will always always pick another creature as the target of it's attacks instead of you. This effect ends once you have directly harmed the creature in any way, but resets if the creature loses sight of you.

Roguish Style

At 3rd level, you adopt a particular style of criminal antics as your specialty. Depending on the kind of work you specialize in, choose one of the following styles to learn:

Slippery

The best way to survive a fight is to never get caught. You learn to become very difficult to pin down during a fight. When an creature ends its turn within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to move up to half your speed. This movement does not provoke opportunity attacks.

Poison

With the proper poison, even the strongest of foes become easy pickings, which is why you start each day preparing a vial of crude poison with whatever is on hand. It'll only remain fresh for the day, but it's more than enough to keep enemies down.

You gain proficiency with the poisoner's kit. As an action, you can apply a vial of crude poison on 2 light slashing or piercing weapons. It remains potent for 1 minute or until it is wiped off. On hit, a creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier) or become poisoned until the end of it's next turn.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Intrigue

You don't have to worry about surviving a fight if you never get into one. You learn to unerringly mimic the speech patterns and accent of a creature that you hear speak for at least 1 minute, enabling you to pass yourself off as a native speaker of a particular land, provided that you know the language. If you spend at least 10 minutes listening to someone, you can mimic their voice almost perfectly.

You also gain proficiency with the disguise kit. After spending an appropriate amount of time, you can create anything from a simple to elaborate disguise to alter your appearance, even to mimic the face of a someone you are familiar with.

A creature with passive perception less than 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier will have no reason to suspect your appearance. Otherwise, a suspicious creature can discern that you are disguised with a contested Intelligence (Investigation) check against your Performance (Charisma) check.

Evasion

At 5th level, you can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as an ancient red dragon’s fiery breath or an ice storm spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.

Expertise

At 6th level, choose two more of your skill proficiencies to gain expertise with. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of the chosen proficiencies.

Reliable Talents

At 10th level, you have refined your chosen skills to the point of perfection, allowing you avoid any unlikely mistakes. Whenever you make an ability check that lets you add your proficiency bonus, you can treat a d20 roll of 9 or lower as a 10.

A creature who has been given a Bardic Inspiration die can expend it to roll the die and add the number rolled to one ability check, attack roll, or saving throw it makes. The creature can wait until after it rolls the d20 before deciding to use the Bardic Inspiration die, but must decide before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails. A creature can have only one Bardic Inspiration die at a time, and loses it after 10 minutes if it is not used.

The Spells Known column of the Dancer table shows when you learn more bard 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, you can choose one of the bard spells you know and replace it with another spell from the bard spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your spells, since your magic draws on the power of your performance.

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 bard spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +

Revitalizing Dance

At 3rd level, your dance has such revitalizing powers that they can push your allies beyond their limit.

As a bonus action, you can expend two of your Bardic Inspiration dice to allow an willing creature within 30 feet of you that can see you to take one additional bonus action on their next turn.

Alternatively, you can expend three of your Bardic Inspiration dice to allow that creature to take one additional action on their next turn instead.

The target creature receives only one Bardic Inspiration die in either case.

Enthralling Performance

At 4th level, your performance can seduce and enthrall an audience.

If you perform for at least 1 minute, you can attempt to inspire wonder in your audience by singing, reciting a poem, or dancing. At the end of the performance, choose a number of humanoids within 60 feet of you who watched and listened to all of it, up to a number equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one). Each target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC or be charmed by you. While charmed in this way, the target idolizes you, it speaks glowingly of you to anyone who talks to it, and it hinders anyone who opposes you, although it avoids violence unless it was already inclined to fight on your behalf. This effect ends on a target after 1 hour, if it takes any damage, if you attack it, or if it witnesses you attacking or damaging any of its allies.

If a target succeeds on its saving throw, the target has no hint that you tried to charm it.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

At 10th level, the revitalizing powers of your dance is so striking that it never fails to delight.

The first time each day you target a creature with your Revitalizing Dance feature, you may expend one 1 less Bardic Inspiration die for the feature's effects.

There are many types of Staffs, but the vast majority of them have complex magics and can only be used by experienced healers, which are represented by it's level requirements.

Attuning to an item requires a creature to spend a short rest focused on only that item while being in physical contact with it.

An item can be attuned to only one creature at a time, and a creature can be attuned to no more than three Magic Items at a time. (DMG pg 136)

  • Properties: Versatile (1d10)

When you are hit by an attack, you can use your reaction to expend a number of charges up to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of one) to gain +1 AC per expended charge against that single attack.

Physical Faith

Your physical training has combined with your magical discipline to form a a constant barrier around yourself that can easily brush off incoming attacks.

while you are wearing no armor and not wielding a shield, your AC equals 10 + your Strength modifier + your Constitution modifier. You do not gain this benefit if you are shapeshifted.

Hardened Faith

Your hit points is increased by your Wisdom modifier per level.

Spellcasting

You have learned to draw on divine magic through meditation and prayer to cast spells on the Paladin Spell List. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting.

Preparing Spells

You are able to cast any spell from the Paladin Spell List. However, you can only prepare a certain number of spells to be accessible to you at any given time. You may prepare a number of spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your level. The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

You can change your list of prepared spells by spending time in meditation for 15 minutes.

Spell Slots

The Monk table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells. To cast one of your spells of 1st level or higher, 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 are a 5th-level monk, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Wisdom of 14, your list of prepared spells can include seven 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.

Divine Smite

When you hit a creature with a melee attack using Strength, you can expend one spell slot to deal radiant damage to the target, in addition to the weapon’s damage. The extra damage is 2d8 for a 1st-level spell slot, plus 1d8 for each spell level higher than 1st. The damage increases by 1d8 if the target is an undead, monstrosity or a fiend.

Each fiend, monstrosity or undead that can see or hear you within 45 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes damage.

A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Extended Barrier

At 3rd Level, your control of the defensive magic in your Monk Staff improves enough to allow you to extend it's protection to your allies.

BEGINNER | PRIEST

Healtouch

You have dedicated yourself to studying the inner workings of healing magic. Whenever you use a staff or spell to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal to twice your Intelligence modifier.

Spellcasting

You have learned to draw on divine magic through meditation and prayer to cast spells on the Cleric Spell List. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting.

Cantrips

You know four cantrips of your choice from the Cleric Cantrip List.

Preparing Spells

You are able to cast any spell from the Cleric Spell List. However, you can only prepare a certain number of spells to be accessible to you at any given time. You may prepare a number of spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your level. The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest.

Spell Slots

The Priest table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells. To cast one of your spells of 1st level or higher, 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 are a 3rd-level priest, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a 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.

Voice of Reason

At 3rd level, your experience as a healer allows others to easily understand your compassion. You may add your Intelligence modifier to your persuasion checks.

Miracle

At 3rd level, you are protected by the goddesses blessing, granting you protection from death. The first time you would drop to 0 hit points as a result of taking damage, you instead drop to 1 hit point.

Alternatively, if you are subjected to an effect that would kill you instantaneously without dealing damage, that effect is instead negated.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again.

Warding Light

At 5th level, your mastery of staff magic has taught you how to quickly expend the charges of a staff for self defense.

When you are attacked by a creature within 30 feet of you that you can see, you can expend 1 charge of a staff you are wielding as a reaction to discharge a bright flare of light in front of your attack, imposing disadvantage on the attack roll. An attacker that can’t be blinded is immune to this feature.

Staff Mastery

At 6th level, your study of staff magics allow you to channel their effects much more quickly.

You can activate a staff's magic as a bonus action if the staff's Casting Time is normally 1 Action and it's Duration is Instantaneous. However, this requires you to expend twice the amount of charges as normal.

Divine Intervention

At 10th level, you can call on the goddess to intervene on your behalf when your need is great.

Imploring the goddess's aid requires you to use your action. Describe the assistance you seek, and roll percentile dice. If you roll a number equal to or lower than your level + your Charisma modifier, your deity intervenes. The DM chooses the nature of the intervention, such as the effect of a powerful spell or something more specific to the situation.

If your deity intervenes, you can’t use this feature again for 7 days. Otherwise, you can use it again after you finish a long rest.

BEGINNER | DARK MAGE

Ancient Language

You have deciphered ancient language of dragons. You can speak the language and use it to leave hidden messages for other capable dark magi such as yourself. You and others who know it automatically spot such a message. Others spot the message’s presence with a successful DC 15 Wisdom (Perception) check but can’t decipher it without magic.

Spellcasting

As a student of arcane magic, you have discovered the knowledge of spellcasting, being able to learn spells on the Wizard Spell List. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting.

Spell Slots

The Dark Mage table shows how many spell slots you gain at each level to cast your wizard 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.

For example, If you know the 1st-level spell magic missile, you can cast it using a 1st-level or a 2nd-level slot.

Spells Known

You know four 1st-level spells of your choice from the wizard spell list.

The Spells Known column of the Dark Mage table shows when you learn more wizard 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, you can choose one of the wizard spells you know and replace it with another spell from the wizard spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Hearth of Shadows

For a Dark Mage, home can be wherever you are. During a short or long rest, you can invoke the shadowy power of the dragon gods to help guard your respite. At the start of the rest, you touch a point in space, and an invisible, 30-foot-radius sphere of magic appears, centered on that point. Total cover blocks the sphere.

While within the sphere, you and your allies gain a +10 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth) and Wisdom (Perception) checks, and any light from open flames in the sphere (a campfire, torches, or the like) isn’t visible outside it.

The sphere vanishes at the end of the rest or when you leave the sphere.

Magic of Shadows

At 3rd level, your study of shadow magic has ingrained them deeply within your mind.

You learn the Darkness, Darkvision, Pass Without Trace, and Silence spells. These spells cannot be swapped out for a different spell when you gain levels and do not count against your spells known as a Dark Mage.

BEGINNER | DARK MAGE

Transferance

At 4th level, the energy of a creature's soul as it leaves it's body becomes visible to you as magical energy.

When a creature within 60 feet of you that you can see dies, you can use your reaction to convert it's soul into healing energy. Target yourself or a willing living creature you can see within 15 feet of the dying creature, they regain hit points equal to 1d4 x your Constitution modifier (minimum of one).

Enthralling Undead

At 6th level, your study of dark magic has finally broken through the secrets of animating undead terrors. You learn the spell animate dead if you haven't already. This spell cannot be swapped out for a different spell when you gain levels and do not count against your spells known as a Dark Mage.

When you cast Animate Dead, you can create Bonewalkers using a humanoid skeleton and Revenants using a humanoid corpse instead of regular skeletons and zombies.

These terrors have abilities that scale with the level of the spell slot used to cast Animate Dead (minimum of 3).

You can only animate and maintain control over undead created with this feature equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of one).

Hexing Aura

At 10th level, the dark magic coursing through you leaks out like a terrifying aura, freezing those too close to you.

Attacks have advantage against creatures within 5 feet of you. A creature immune to being frightened is not affected by this feature. This aura does not differentiate between friend and foe.

Dark Magic Mastery

At 10th level, your mastery of Dark magic allow you to treat the living and undead the same.

Defensive Style

Your study of spells has manifested the ability to weave magic around yourself for protection, creating a magical ward on yourself that can absorb damage.

You always have an Defensive Ward around you. The ward has a hit point maximum equal to twice your level + your Wisdom modifier. Whenever you take damage, the ward takes the damage instead. If this damage reduces the ward to 0 hit points, you take any remaining damage.

Additionally, while you are mounted, you can force an spell attack made against you or a creature that you can see within 30 feet of you to be made with disadvantage.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses of it when you finish a short or long rest.

Beacon of Light

Starting at 18th level, you can use your action to activate an beacon of sunlight from your staff that lasts for 1 minute or until you dismiss it using another action.

You emit bright light in a 60-foot radius and dim light 30 feet beyond that. Your enemies in the bright light have disadvantage on saving throws against any spell that deals fire or radiant damage. Additionally, creatures that rely on sight have disadvantage on all attacks against you.

Controlling a Mount

You can control a mount only if it has been trained to accept a rider. The initiative of a controlled mount changes to match yours when you mount it. It can act either before or after you.

It moves as you direct it, and it has only three action options: Dash, Disengage, and Dodge. A controlled mount can move and act even on the turn that you mount it, given that it has not already acted that turn.

PHB, pg. 198

Mounting and Dismounting

Once during your move, you can mount a creature that is within 5 feet of you or dismount. Doing so costs an amount of movement equal to half your speed.

If an effect moves your mount against its will while you're on it, you must succeed on a DC 10 Dexterity saving throw or fall off the mount, landing prone in a space within 5 feet of it. If you're knocked prone while mounted, you must make the same saving throw.

If your mount is knocked prone, you can use your reaction to dismount it as it falls and land on your feet. Otherwise, you are dismounted and fall prone in a space within 5 feet it.

Death's Command

You learn the spell Command if you haven't already. This spell cannot be swapped out for a different spell when you gain levels and do not count against your spells known as a Dark Mage. You can cast this spell at a 1st level without expending a spell slot and you are able to affect undead creatures with this spell.

Death's Approach

At 9th level, your mastery of the undead has given you a deep understanding of the living's aging process.

You can perform a ritual to reverse the effects of aging in yourself. The ritual takes 3 hours, and requires 1000 gp worth of Bloodstones, which are consumed in the process. Your apparent age is reduced by 3d10 years, to a minimum of when your body reached adulthood. This does not extend your lifespan.

If you sacrifice a single living creature with an an intelligence score of 9 or higher during the ritual, you can also extend your lifespan by a number of years equal to a quarter of the creature's natural remaining lifespan. This effect is exponentially less effective the further apart the sacrificed creature's biology is from your own.

You can perform this ritual for a willing creature other than yourself, but doing so is exhaustive and much less effective. Such a ritual would take 5 times as long and 10 times as much resources while only having half of the potency.

Death's Beginning

At 11th level, your study of death and it's reversal has revealed the secrets of resurrection magic typically only granted to those who worship the goddess. Doing so will require you to compensate with your lack of faith with physical skill, but success would allow you to impart your skills of animating the dead on those you resurrect.

You learn the spell Raise Dead if you haven't already. This spell cannot be swapped out for a different spell when you gain levels and do not count against your spells known as a Dark Mage.

When you cast this spell, you must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC equal to 8 + half the target's level). If you fail, the target's soul will be tormented and the revived creature will be eternally hostile towards you without any regards for it's own safety.

If you succeed, then the resurrected creature must succeed on a Charisma saving throw or become unknowingly charmed by you, remaining friendly to you for the rest of their life and losing any problematic memories it may have from before it's death that would prevent it from being friendly towards you.

Death's Abundance

At 13th level, you begin to recognize and understand that the dead is all around you, even when others wouldn't normally consider it as such.

You no longer need to use a pile of bones or a corpse of a humanoid to cast Animate Dead. Instead you are able to locate the fragments of those long dead all around you to quickly piece together exactly what you need in place of a pile of bones or a corpse.

Death's Embrace

At 18th level, you have become so deeply steeped in the magic of death that you become immune to it.

You are immune to Necrotic damage. Additionally, creatures you summon or raise are resistant to Necrotic damage.

INTERMEDIATE | SUMMONER

Phantom Transposition

At 9th level, your connection with your phantom allows you to quickly summon it to your side.

When you are the target of an attack that you can see, you can use your reaction to transport a summoned Phantom between you and the attack to have it intercept the attack. The attack is given advantage against your Phantom. You cannot use this feature against effects that require you to make a saving throw.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Persistent Phantom

At 11th level, your phantom cannot be easily dismissed.

You gain +10 to your concentration saving throws while concentrating on the Summon Phantom spell.

Durable Phantom

At 13th level, you learn how to maximize the durability of your Phantom.

Your phantom has additional hit points equal to half of your own (rounded down). As an action, you can restore hit points to your phantoms equal to 1d10 x (spell level).

Double Phantom

At 18th level, your summoning powers are without match. When you cast Summon Phantom, you can choose to summon two Phantoms instead of one. If you do so, each phantom has a base hit point value of (spell level) x 4 instead of 8.
