### Arcane Discipline
*1st level Spellblade Feature*

You follow an Arcane Discipline representing the unique approach you take to being a Spellblade. Your Arcane Discipline, detailed later in the document, grants you features at level 1, and again at levels 3, 7, 14, and 20.

### Spellcasting
*1st level Spellblade Feature*

Just as your training as a Spellblade has honed your body for battle, your mind is equally deadly for its ability to channel powerful magic in the form of spells.

##### Cantrips (0-Level Spells)
At 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice from the Spellblade spell list. At higher levels, you learn additional Spellblade cantrips of your choice, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Spellblade table.

##### Spell Slots
The Spellblade table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your Spellblade spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these Spellblade 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 slot.

##### Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the Spellblade spell list.

The Spells Known column of the Spellblade 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 5th 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 Spellblade spells you know and replace it with another spell from the Spellblade spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

##### Spellcasting Focus

You can use an arcane focus, or any weapon with which you are proficient, as a Spellcasting Focus for your Spellblade Spells.

##### Spellcasting Ability
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your Spellblade spells. You use your Intelligence whenever a Spellblade spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for an Spellblade 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.

\columnbreak

### Mana Arts
*2nd level Spellblade Feature*

You can learn a number of unique abilities, known as Mana Arts, that further define your skill as a Spellblade. You know one Mana Art from the list at the end of the document. You know one Mana Art, and when you gain certain Spellblade levels, you gain additional Mana Arts of your choice, as shown in the Mana Arts Known column of the Spellblade table.

Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the Mana Arts you know and replace it with another Mana Art, selected as if the Spellblade is the level they were when they learned the original Mana Art.

### Resonance Dice
*2nd level Spellblade Feature*

You gain the ability to re-absorb the excess energy of your spells, and channel it once again to empower your abilities. Whenever you expend a spell slot to cast a spell of 1st level or higher, you gain a number of Resonance Dice equal to the half the level of the spell cast, rounded down (minimum of 1 die). You can store a maximum number of Resonance Dice at one time equal to twice your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1). These Resonance Dice remain until you expend them, or until you complete a long rest.

Your resonance die is a d4. At 6th level, it becomes a d6. At level 11 it becomes a d8, and at level 17 it becomes a d10.

### Resonant Weapon
*2nd level Spellblade Feature*

When you hit a target with a weapon attack, you can empower the blow with arcane energy. Expend a number of stored Resonance Dice up to your proficiency bonus, rolling them and dealing additional force damage equal to the result.

### Arcane Enhancement
*3rd level Spellblade Feature*

Your Arcane prowess allows you to empower your physical attributes, as well. Whenever you make a strength (Athletics) or dexterity (Acrobatics) skill check, you may add your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1) to the result.

### Ability Score Improvement
*4th level Spellblade Feature*

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.

You gain this feature again at levels 8, 12, 16, and 19.

### Extra Attack
*5th level Spellblade Feature*

You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

\pagebreakNum

### War Mind
*6th level Spellblade Feature*

You are trained in using magic in the heat of battle, and lesser blows have no hope of breaking your concentration. Whenever you take damage while concentrating on a spell, if the DC for the constitution saving throw would be 10, you automatically succeed on the saving throw.

At 15th level, you instead automatically succeed on any constitution saving throw to maintain concentration that would have DC 15 or less.

### Resonant Affinity
*10th level Spellblade Feature*

Choose one of your Ability Scores: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma. Whenever you make an ability check or saving throw with the chosen ability score, you may expend a stored Resonance Die, rolling it and adding the result to the check or saving throw. You can use this feature after you roll the saving throw or ability check, but before you know the outcome.

### Magic Resistance
*18th level Spellblade Feature*

You have advantage on all saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

|1st|Armaments of the Bulwark|
|3rd|Bulwark Spells, Walls of Mana|
|7th|Resonant Barrier|
|14th|Spell Siphon, Improved Resonant Barrier|
|20th|Invulnerable Veil|

### Armaments of the Bulwark
*1st level Bulwark Spellblade Feature*

You gain proficiency in Heavy Armor. Additionally, your hit point maximum increases by 1 and increases by 1 again whenever you gain a level in this class.

### Bulwark Spells
*3rd level Bulwark Spellblade Feature*

As a follower of the Bulwark Arcane Discipline, you learn the following spells at the following levels, they don't count against your total spells known, and they count as Spellblade spells for you.
|Spellblade Level|Discipline Spell|
|:-:|:-:|
|3rd|Shield|
|5th|Warding Bond|
|9th|Counterspell|
|13th|Stoneskin|
|17th|Wall of Force|

\columnbreak

### Walls of Mana
*3rd level Bulwark Spellblade Feature*

You gain the ability to create shimmering walls of translucent magical energy. As a bonus action, you may create any number of 10-foot-by-10-foot panels of magical energy. Nothing can physically pass through the wall, and it also extends into the Ethereal Plane, blocking ethereal travel through the wall. You can create multiple panels as a part of the same bonus action, but each panel after the first must share at least one edge with another panel. Each panel has an AC of 10 and hit points equal to your Spellblade level. If a panel drops to zero hit points, if you dispel it as a free action, or after ten minutes pass, it vanishes.

You can create a number of panels equal to your proficiency modifier, after which point you must complete a short or longer rest before you can do so again.

### Resonant Barrier 
*7th level Bulwark Spellblade Feature*

As a bonus action, you can touch a willing creature you can see, or a panel created by your Walls of Mana class feature, and expend any number of your stored Resonance Dice. Roll the expended dice, and your target gains temporary hit points equal to the result.

Starting at 14th level, you can instead use this feature on any target you can see within 30ft of you.

> **Below:** *Summary Judgment* by [Alexander Deruchenko](https://deruch.artstation.com/projects/PmO99r)

\pagebreakNum

### Spell Siphon
*14th level Bulwark Spellblade Feature*

When a creature you can see within 60ft of you is subjected to a spell that targets just that creature, before a saving throw or attack roll is rolled, you can use your reaction to attempt to draw the magical energies towards yourself instead. The creature that cast the spell must make a saving throw using their spellcasting ability score against your Spell Save DC.

On a failed save, you become the target of the spell, instead, and you have resistance to the damage dealt by the spell, if any. If the spell requires concentration, you may choose to maintain concentration on the effect yourself; otherwise, the spell immediately ends. If it is a spell of 1st level or higher, you gain a number of Resonance Dice equal to its level, up to your normal maximum.

Once you use this feature, you must complete a short or long rest before you can do so again.

### Invulnerable Veil
*20th level Bulwark Spellblade Feature*

As an action, you can enchant yourself and up to 6 other creatures of your choice within 30ft of you with incredibly powerful but short-lived abjuring energy. Until the end of your next turn, each of those creatures has immunity to all damage types.

Once you use this feature, you must complete a long rest before you can do so again.

## The Manasoul's Discipline

|7th|Resonant Burst|
|14th|Mana Form, Resonant Burst Improvement|
|20th|Overflowing Soul|

### Arcane Essence
*1st level Manasoul Spellblade Feature*

As a Manasoul, magic is literally in your blood. You have resistance to Force damage.

Also, as a bonus action, you can use some of your essence to enchant any weapons you hold, allowing them to shoot out beams of damaging light, gaining the following properties while you hold it:

- It gleams with unearthly light, shedding bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet.
- It deals force damage instead of its normal damage type.
- If it is a melee weapon, its reach is increased by 10ft on your turn.

An affected weapon retains these properties for the next ten minutes, or it leaves your grasp, or if you end the effect as a free action.

> ##### Optional Class Feature: Sorcerous Manasoul.
> *Level 1 Optional Manasoul Spellblade Feature*
>
> Some Manasouls command their innate magic through the force of their personality, rather than mental rigor. For these Manasouls, Charisma is your spellcasting modifier instead of Intelligence for all Spellblade spells. In addition, whenever a Spellblade feature references your Intelligence modifier, you instead use your Charisma modifier.

### Manasoul Spells
*3rd level Manasoul Spellblade Feature*

As a follower of the Manasoul Arcane Discipline, you learn the following spells at the following levels, they don't count against your total spells known, and they count as Spellblade spells for you.
|Spellblade Level|Discipline Spell|

|5th|Magic Weapon|

|17th|Bigby's Hand|

\pagebreakNum

### Mana Mine
*3rd level Manasoul Spellblade Feature*

As a bonus action, you can send a mote of arcane light to a point you can see within 30ft of you, remaining for 10 minutes and shedding bright light in a 5-foot radius and dim light for an additional 5 feet. If a creature enters this light, it is revealed you even if it was hidden, and you can use your reaction to cause the mote to detonate. The creature that triggered this reaction must make a Dexterity saving throw against your Spellblade DC. On a failed save, it takes force damage equal to 1d6 + half your Spellblade level, taking half as much damage on a success.

You may create a number of motes equal to your proficiency modifier, after which point you must complete a short or longer rest before you may do so again.

### Resonant Burst
*7th level Manasoul Spellblade Feature*

As an action, you may choose to discharge the magical energy stored by your Resonant Weapon class feature in a violent explosion. When you do so, roll any number of your stored Resonance Dice. Each creature within 15ft of you must make a Dexterity Saving Throw against your Spell Save DC or take force damage equal to the result, taking half as much damage on a successful saving throw.

Starting at 14th level, you may add your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1) to the damage dealt by this feature.

\columnbreak

### Mana Form
*14th level Manasoul Spellblade Feature*

You gain the ability to briefly become an immaterial being of pure arcane energy. As a bonus action, you can temporarily enter the ethereal plane, remaining until the start of your next turn or until you end the effect as a free action. While in this form, you appear as an illusory, shimmering version of yourself, you have a flying speed equal to double your walking speed, you can phase through creatures and solid objects, and you are immune to all damage types except force damage.

If you are in the space of a creature or object when this form ends, you and the creature or object each take 5d10 force damage, and you are shunted to the nearest unoccupied space. A creature can make a Dexterity saving throw against your Spell Save DC to avoid this effect; on a successful save, you and the creature each instead take half as much damage.

One you use this feature, you must complete a long rest before you may do so again.

### Overflowing Soul
*20th level Manasoul Spellblade Feature*

You have become a flawless conduit for arcane energy. Your Resonance Die becomes a d12, and there is no longer a cap on the number of Resonance Dice you can have stored at one time.

Also, whenever a creature other than you within 60ft of you casts a spell of 1st level or higher, you can use your reaction to gain Resonance Dice equal to the level of the spell. Resonance Dice gained in this way are lost at the end of your turn if not already expended.

### Superior Arcane Enhancements
*3rd level Drifter Spellblade Feature*

For the purposes of calculating your long jump distance, you can use your Intelligence score + your Strength score, instead of just your Strength score. For the purposes of calculating your high jump height, you can use your Intelligence modifier + your Strength modifier, instead of just your Strength modifier.

\columnbreak

### Resonant Dash
*7th level Drifter Spellblade Feature*

You gain the ability to attack even as you use your Arcane Footwork feature. As a part of that same bonus action, you may roll any number of your stored Resonance Dice.  If you pass through any creatures as you dash, you may choose to make a spell attack roll against any or all of them. On a hit, a target takes force damage equal to the rolled result of your spent Resonance Dice.

### Unnatural Reflexes
*14th level Drifter Spellblade Feature*

Once you use this feature, you must complete a short or long rest before you may do so again.

### Supreme Arcane Footwork
*20th level Drifter Spellblade Feature*

The duplicate has the following properties but otherwise functions exactly like the weapon it is mimicking:
