History of Solicia

A black feathered bird flies into view over a rocky landscape framed within a gray canyon. A stone wall connects the mouth of the valley severing it from the scarred landscape beyond. The eagle flies to the west over a massive natural bridge then turns north, over fields of grassland that transition to miles and miles of farmland set at the foot of mountain ranges cascading down into the ocean on the other side. The green pattern in the bird's wings flares up as the eagle swoops to the east over a scintillating bay, teeming with life both on and beneath the waves. Turning true north, the eagle soars across the burned deserts and mesas. Reaching the windswept savannas and verdant coastline. There it twists and dives down toward a sprawling metropolis seated on the water's edge ringed by a perfectly circular city wide moat. The andari eagle channels its strength and teleports past another flock. To finally perch on the uppermost peaks of the high queen's theater of passage.

Theft: 4-8 days incarceration and a fine equal to the worth stolen.

Protectors of Man

One of the two great dragons, Alavumtaan'do'eisiris, is commonly depicted in the form of carvings done in both stone and metalwork. The unifying factor of art depicting Alavum is the fact that the entire canvas aside from the dragon god's form is detailed, leaving a silhouette in the negative space to represent Alavum. He is said to have helped incubate the world before the first dragons brought elemental energy to it. His followers value those who keep to a code of honor while looking to the knowledge of ancient beings.

The holy symbol of Alavum shows a solid set of golden double doors inscribed sometimes with draconic script. It represents the supposed passage through the Divine Barrier that the spirits of the faithful travel through after death.

Illustrated on only the most exquisite canvasses and by the most talented artists, the god of innovation is a joyous figure. Cor'layph's followers take great pleasure in travel and self expression and never shy away from adding a touch of levity where it may be lacking. That isn't to say their devout know nothing but joy as the turbulent emotional landscapes of the fey realms are attributed to their patron deity. Cor'layph is thought of as the great emotional core of all gods. Springing from deep fathomless sorrow to exuberant ecstasy. They are believed to be the conscience of divinity and through this, are the closest conduit to mortal beings.

The symbol of Cor'layph represents the diaspora of elvenkind, the constellation draws from the teu'illyia of moon elves and the sextant represents the endless wanderlust of sun elves.

With these options added through legacies:

"Twas a grand sight, the blazing sun o'er the flat topped mounts of the Steppe. Its majesty held in the heart of all dwarvenkind." Or at least, thats what I was told by the wandering dwarven man with the ragged, starved, and cracked skin. Even with the sentence put upon him by his kin he still held his home in such esteem. Would I behave the same were I ever cast out of Caal Em'sera in a similar way? I don't think so. The reverence these folk hold for their lands and way of life is beyond even my desire. Still, even through this admiration, it feels moreso that this convict holds a sorrow in his words and longing in his stares pointed back westward to the home he will never see again.

"-And for that reason, the oversight of the wild realms of Solicia shall be placed upon the scions of the moons, the teu'illyia." The way the speaker finished the address left a bitter taste in their mouth. On what authority does this unfamiliar regent gain the right to make determinations for an entire people? "The queen has spoken!" they shouted, masking their doubts. The voices of a hundred other Silverguard with matching cadence rang out in unison.

After the ceremony and accompanied revelry, they stole away from the crowd as they removed their helm and took a breath. Their eyes drifted upward toward the sparsely clouded sky filled with thousands of motes of light, as distant looking as their ideals felt. Suddenly a bolt, inexplicable and unaccompanied by any storm streaked across their vision, sending a surge through their mind and body.

Moon Elf

The more reclusive of elvenkind, moon elves are a common sight in cities and villages but feel the most at home aboard ships or on mountain ridges. Most anywhere that has plain view of the sky at night is comfortable for these elves. That isn't to say that the sky is the only reason for their seclusion, historically moon elves have faced many turbulent times as a people. Therefore have adopted a culture of preparedness and discipline should they need it.

This discipline has evolved into more traditional values within moon elven culture. Specifically regarding their teu'illyia, or 'touch of the moon,' moon elves view them as both a birthmark and image of the person's soul. Therefore they keep them covered at all times and see it a great taboo to have it shown to another. This rule is set aside for partners or if a child's future is read on their teu'illyia.

Abyssal Origins

The origins of avgrund on Acarro began in the tumultuous time before the formation of the Divine Barrier. Those who keep their oral traditions alive tell of a ploy devised by a cabal of great demons. This foul host mutilated and twisted humanoids from the material plane into the first avgrunds. Yet as demons are one to do, the avgrund quickly acted on their own intentions. This culminated in the total severance of their demonic connection coinciding with the Divine Barrier's formation.

Most avgrund take the form of a dark purple or completely black skinned humanoid. Influence from different kinds of demons alter the form or mentality of the avgrund. Some may have vestigial tentacles coiled around their limbs, some may be partially made of ooze, and others may have extra heads or other facial features. The various combinations make each avgrund unique. The remnants of the connection avgrund bear to demons prevents them from gaining the cambion legacy except in the rarest of cases..

Alien Minds, Alien Mannerisms

Most avgrund claim their independence from demons was caused by the presence of a soul alive and well within them. They cherish this thought as it is viewed to be a facet that binds them closer to mortals than demons.

Avgrund are on a completely different wavelength than most. They tend to overthink every situation, and expect a demon to be behind any supernatural occurrence. It causes them great anger when that isn't the case, as they are extremely prideful.

Avgrund Names

Avgrund's names are a representation of how they will act on their own intention apart from the control of any others. They typically use only two or three characters from the abyssal script that they interpret their own meanings from. Needless to say, these names are looked on with disgust by ignorant others so avgrund have taken to adopting names from the local dominant culture as a cover name.

Avgrund Names: Azrat (Wild dancer), Bakris (Eyes are open), Dunraa (Hole in the earth), Jatak (Walks like a giant), Mardag (Kills with a knife), Xaraza (Trusted companion), Xetherox (Joy from the mountain), Zorotax (Lost little sibling)

A Fractured Past

In ages past, before even the construction of the Divine Barrier. The draconic gods of Acarro, Alavum and Yzohan, were said to maintain hierarchical order over the great beasts of the world. They cooperated to oppose chaotic upheavals to the natural circle of life. This circle was threatened in its entirety by an invasion of demonic forces centuries ago. In response it is said that Alavum took it upon himself to create a great army to fend off the incursion.

Yzohan, initially put off by this, grew to feed into her own paranoia. Convincing herself through evidence or happenstance, that these allies of dragonkind were truly only allies of Alavum. She separated herself from Alavum and was believed to fall deeper into her madness.

Born into Conflict

From their first moments on Acarro under the direct and unwavering control of Alavum. Draconic scions were faced with violent and treacherous warfare. First against hordes of demons bolstered by the wanton slaughter they achieved in their surprise assault in the forests of Andor'Ikar. Followed quickly by a surprise opposition from another race of dragonkin borne from Yzohan.

The chromatic great drakes appeared suddenly and aggressively attacked the scions. This conflict raged for years, in some places still ongoing through apartheid regimes. What brought it to an end in most places was believed to be the formation of the Divine Barrier. As it severed the material planes from the outer.

Within Solicia

Artificers within Solicia are rare but are most common in large cities that are made near dwarven strongholds. Dwarves have a natural inventiveness and drive to create that in recent years has greatly accelerated into the development of artifice. This has led to the largest metropolises of Solicia to hire well known artificers to create magical contraptions to make the life of the citizens easier.

The most renowned artificers hail or claim training from Irostead within Iro'ka Solice. It is a city of innovation built upon a dwarven stronghold by the same name.

Within Solicia

Those who walk the path of a blood hunter in Solicia are not always welcome in civilized locations. They hold a reputation as people that bear the power of monsters to further their own strength and as cold blooded killers of those who oppose the hunter's charge.

In the Dusk Valley of The Wall and the Shattered Bluff lies a coalition of blood hunters, druids, and tamed beasts known as the Orders of the Twilit Vale. Their charge is the entirety of the valley and the flora and fauna within. Members of the orders are known as the Guardians over Twilight and use natural forces and intimidation to curb the expansion of reckless urban expansion.

Stealing Magic

What a blood hunter knows in martial prowess, they compliment with inarcane magic taken from spirits, monsters, and great beasts. The way in which a hunter takes the magic can vary greatly from consuming pieces of their prey or trapping aspects in a vessel and drawing from it when they deem necessary.

The subclass options of blood hunters typically determine the source of their inarcane magic, the ghostslayer takes their fight to beings of undeath. The mutant creates alchemical concoctions that bolster at a cost, with the lycan taking it to an extreme and infusing another creatures genetic makeup with their own. Whereas the profane soul in contrast creates a pact with an entity beyond them self and from it gains natural might.

While hunters can use their talents to develop their own magic, the powers of this class aren't truly their own. Whether developed through skill or bestowed through an external deal, the inarcane magic of a hunter vanishes entirely if they stop putting in the effort to maintain and strengthen it.

Different Options

When creating a blood hunter their spellcasting modifier can be either Intelligence or Wisdom. Depending on whether your hunter uses accrued knowledge to gain the upper hand on opponents or they possess an instinct, natural or otherwise, to exploit the fundamental make up of their foes.

However, blood hunters may not fit the campaign that a DM is trying to run in Solicia. If this is the case and you still want the flair of a learned hunter you can look to the monster slayer conclave ranger, the circle of the guardian druid as a force of inarcane power, or the college of valor bard that uses their knowledge to compliment spellcraft with sword.

Within Solicia

Much like other worlds, clerics within Solicia are traditionally seen as devout followers of a divine force, whether it be a god or ideal. This view is true for some but others that walk this path can also find a more passive connection to divinity. The arcana domain further strays from tradition, having the ability to harness arcane magic rather than divine.

Circle Spells

Also at 2nd level, your link with your primeval weapon grants you access to some spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown on the Circle of Sanctuary Spells table.

Once you gain access to one of these spells, you always have it prepared, and it doesn't count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesn't appear on the Druid Spell List, the spell is nonetheless a druid spell for you.

Weapon of the Wilds

Beginning when you join this circle at 2nd level, you learn to wield and evolve a typical weapon into a force of nature. At the end of a long rest you may touch one weapon to infuse it with primeval magic. That weapon becomes your Primeval Weapon. You become proficient with the weapon for the duration and gain the following benefits while the weapon is infused:

• You may use your Wisdom modifier when determining the weapon's attack and damage rolls, rather than Strength or Dexterity.
• You can still complete the somatic components of druid spells you have prepared even if the weapon is in one or both hands.
• When you hit a creature, you may expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher to deal additional force damage to a target. This damage is equal to 1d8 per slot level expended.
• As a bonus action, you can summon the weapon to an empty hand.

The weapon remains infused until you finish a long rest, unless you choose to continue the infusion then.

Extra Attack

Starting at 6th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action using your primeval weapon on your turn. Alternatively, you can use this extra attack to instead cast a druid cantrip you know.

Guardian Form

At 6th level, you learn to bring the benefits of you primeval weapon into your wild shape. When you use your wild shape, if you choose to merge your primeval weapon into your new form, all attacks available to your current wild shape gain the same benefits from your Weapon of the Wilds feature.

Alternatively, if you choose for your primeval weapon to be worn or dropped by your new form, you are still considered proficient and able to wield the weapon. Provided you have a hand or mouth capable of doing so (DM's discretion). You cannot use an action required by a part of your new form if that form is wielding your primeval weapon, for example if you are wielding your weapon in your wolf form's mouth, you cannot make a bite attack unless you drop the weapon.

Enhanced Infusion

At 10th level, your connection with your primeval weapon grows deeper. You gain a +1 bonus to all attack and damage rolls you make with your primeval weapon and it gains the following additional benefits:

• Attacks made with your primeval weapon count as magical for the purposes of overcoming resistances and immunities to nonmagical attacks.
• As a reaction to when you or a creature you can see within 30 feet of you reaches 0 hit points or below, you can sever your connection to your primeval weapon to cause that creature to drop to 1 hit point instead.

Primeval Might

Once you reach 14th level, your weapon has become a mighty force thrust forward with nature's strength. When you reduce a creature of unnatural origin such as an aberration, construct, fiend, monstrosity, or undead to 0 hit points, you gain an additional action on your current turn. You can only gain this additional action once per turn.

Within Solicia

Paladins across Solicia are typically one of two camps. They either are faithful hedge knights that pledge service toward factions aligned with their oaths. On the other hand, there has always been at least a few groups of paladins connected through a zealous fervor to oppose abuses of power.

The predominant face of the paladin nomads of Solicia are the Stained Knights. An order of paladins devoted to the Lady of Strategy, Alexandria. They wear armor of a uniform color and thereafter known by that color. While their oaths are varied they remain staunchly loyal to the tenants of Alexandria as well. The first and foremost being that once donned, they are forbidden from removing a part of their armor willingly while in the presence of others. For more information on the Stained Knights, check the background section of Chapter 2.

As for the second group. Throughout Solician history there have been many factions, or possibly less factions that instead renamed themselves to avoid persecution. Whether that be the Iron Spears, the Dreamrenders, the Gods' Guard, or the Chains of the Divine. These groups have always been thrust forward by paladins immersed in their fervor. Fervor devoted to the might and authority of divine magic. Though none of these factions have ever seen their goals truly come to fruition, this only steels the resolve of those who follow in their stead.

Rogue: Golden Cloak

The Golden Cloaks are a guild founded in the city of Baatha. They are made up of three distinct groups, or 'Strands'. The Strand of Antiquities collects and protects the lore acquired by the other Strands while the Strand of Enforcement roots out corruption across Solicia and beyond. The Strand of Exploration is where this style of rogue is most commonly found, as they seek out historical sites and delve into the secrets they hold.

Within Solicia

Sorcerers of Solicia are rather uncommon in most regions. While there are programs within larger cities to help those gifted with innate magic, they are few and far between forcing those who wish to study possibly far from their homes.

In the north, sorcerers are seen as lucky folk who may not have done anything to earn their power, but are still people to go to for assistance when necessary. Promising sorcerers may have tuition fees reduced or waived at prestigious academies when they are noticed by officials.

In southern parts of The Wall as well as the Shattered Bluff and Isle of Drakes, sorcerers are sometimes referred to as 'star-bloods' due to the brilliant colors of the night sky created by little motes of light that are few and far between. This has led some sorcerers of the area to act as wandering sages and soothsayers, using this otherworldly perception of their origin as a way to convince others to listen.

Across the continent most sorcerers end up traveling in some way which inevitably guides them to the hub of travel and trade in Solicia, the central regions of Iro'ka Solice. It is fairly common to see a street performer slinging illusions down the street or hear stories of sailors fending off thieves with untrained magic.

Types of Magic

The magic of Acarro is categorized into three distinct kinds; Divine, Arcane, and Inarcane. Divine magic is the powers bestowed upon a creature by a higher being beyond the material plane. An entity powerful enough that it presides over its own full fledged plane. Arcane magic is the magic created and manipulated without the complete oversight of a deity. It can be learned to control as well as gifted upon others with or without consent. Finally the forces of inarcane magic are that of natural, primordial power. The magic of the creatures who develop spell-like abilities through evolution or a deep connection to nature.

Sorcerers are most commonly found wielding arcane magic but subclasses like the divine soul make use of the divine arts instead. And it is possible for sorcerers to use inarcane magic, but these kinds are exceedingly rare and dangerous as this type of magic is more chaotic in nature.

Innate Magic

As sorcerers are defined by their magic being the result of a force beyond their control that imbues them with abilities, they have access to the Constitution Casting variant rule. This allows a sorcerer to use their Constitution rather than Charisma as their spellcasting ability modifier. Additionally, the spell point variant rule can also be used to further differentiate the major spellcasting classes from each other.

Sorcerous Origins

The following are all examples of where you may find the various subclasses for a sorcerer throughout Solicia, with a brief description. Your campaign can have any, all, or none of the options provided. Check with your DM on what is allowed.

Aberrant Mind. Truly alien minded beings influenced by a psychic force of great power. Possibly some forgotten idol worshipped by monsters.

Divine Soul. Heavenly blessed creatures that commonly have a divine mission to follow. Especially sought out in the south. As a symbol, or as a martyr.

Dragonic Bloodline. Granted features of the primeval dragons through a deal or through a dragon's blood. Iadoron's noble families claim to have dragon blood in their veins.

Shadow Magic. Exposure to dark rituals or the forces of the Shadowfell has intertwined a soul to the darkness. It is said that the Platinum Channel sits as close to the Shadowfell as Solicia does to the Fey Realms.

Storm Sorcery. A being gifted with the innate ability to command the forces of elemental air and wind. Revered as messiah-like figures within Deno Eiskk. Or the weathermages of the Uvarmazin.

Wild Magic. The result of a magical experiment, powerful spell, extended exposure to an are of dead magic, or some other unnatural phenomena.

Instead, the shot fires forward in a line, which is 1 foot wide and 30 feet long, before disappearing. The shot passes harmlessly through objects, ignoring cover. Each creature in that line must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes damage as if it were hit by the shot, plus an extra 1d6 piercing damage. On a successful save, a target takes half as much damage.

Cavalier Maneuvers

Born to the Saddle

Beginning at 3rd level, your talent as a rider manifests in the following ways. You gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Animal Handling, History, Performance, or Persuasion. You also gain proficiency in Vehicles (Land) if you do not have it already.

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

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

Joust

Also at 3rd level, while you are mounted and move at least 10 feet in a straight line then make a melee weapon attack, that attack scores a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.

You do not need to be on a mount or move at least 10 feet to gain this benefit against your Ranger's Quarry.

Warding Strategy

At 7th level, you learn to bolster your mount with the same maneuvers you use to defend yourself. When you give yourself temporary hit points through a tactical maneuver, you can give a creature within 5 feet of you the same amount of temporary hit points. Also when you increase your AC through a tactical maneuver, your mount gains the same increase for the same duration.

Hold the Line

At 11th level, you become a master of locking down your enemies. Creatures provoke an opportunity attack from you when they move 5 feet or more while within your reach, and if you hit a creature with an opportunity attack, the target's speed is reduced by 15 feet until the end of the current turn.

Ferocious Charger

Starting at 15th level, your prestige in mounted combat extends. Your joust feature expands to score a critical hit on a roll of 18-20. Additionally, anytime you score a critical hit on a creature while you are mounted or on a vehicle, you knock the creature prone.

Valiant Champion

Starting at 20th level, you respond to danger with extraordinary vigilance. In combat, you get a special reaction that you can take once on every creature's turn, except your turn. You can use this special reaction only to make an opportunity attack, and you can't use it on the same turn that you take your normal reaction.

Corsair Maneuvers

Ante and Payout

Starting at 3rd level, you place your trust in the randomness of the planes. Once per turn, when you make an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, you can choose to roll one of your Tactical Dice and subtract it from your roll. If you still succeed the check, one of your remaining Tactical Dice increases by one size until you use it or you complete a short or long rest. You can only have one of these increased dice at a time. If you gain another while you still have one, the first returns to normal.

Silvered Tongue

At 7th level, you adapt your speech to echo those you hear. When you spend at least 1 minute listening to a creature you have marked as your Ranger's Quarry speak, for the next 8 hours you can attempt to mimic the sound of their voice, adding a Tactical Die to any Charisma check you make while impersonating their voice. If you are repeating something you heard the creature say verbatim, you can gain advantage on the roll instead. You can still use this feature even if you do not understand the language you are mimicing.

Evasive Action

At 11th level, your reflexes heighten to avoid dangerous effects. When you are forced to make a saving throw to only take half damage, you can use your reaction to expend a Tactical Die to only take half damage on a failed save and no damage on a successful save. You can use this reaction before or after the roll is made.

Mind over Matter

When you reach 15th level, your reflexes attune to protect your mind from onslaught. When you are forced to make an Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma saving throw, you can use your reaction to gain proficiency in the triggering saving throw before the roll is made. You retain this proficiency and cannot use this ability again until you complete a long rest.

Torrential Luck

Finally at 20th level, you become the embodiment of boldness. Every time you succeed on an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw (at the DM's discretion), you gain a cumulative +1 bonus to all rolls you make. If at any point you fail a roll, this bonus resets to 0 and you have disadvantage on all rolls for 1 minute.

Dragoon

While not a native talent to mainland Solicia, the skills of dragon knights are renowned across Acarro. Many cultures claim the dragoon as their own creation. From the frozen north ranges of Yichos to the towering jungles of Teigea and even Solicia's own cavernous Isle of Drakes. Their abilities are sources of fear for foes of dragonkind with most claiming to have either been taught by a dragon or by a master that trained under a mighty dragon.

However, there exists a faction made up of dragoons that have learned this skill in order to hunt dragons. Turning their own awe inspiring abilities against them.

Whatever your dragoon's source of talent was think about what has brought them to where they are. Perhaps as a trial or mission set upon them by their master.

Echo Maneuvers

Manifest Echo

At 3rd level, you can use a bonus action to magically manifest an echo of yourself in an unoccupied space you can see within 15 feet of you. This echo is a magical, translucent, faintly colored image of you that lasts until it is destroyed, until you dismiss it as a bonus action, until you manifest another echo, or until you're incapacitated.

Your echo has AC 14 + your proficiency bonus, 1 hit point, and immunity to all conditions. If it has to make a saving throw, it uses your saving throw bonus for the roll. It is the same size as you, and it occupies its space. On your turn, you can mentally command the echo to move up to 30 feet in any direction (no action required). If your echo is ever more than 30 feet from you at the end of your turn, it is destroyed.

As a bonus action, you can teleport, magically swapping places with your echo at a cost of 15 feet of your movement, regardless of the distance between the two of you. When you take the Attack action on your turn, any attack you make with that action can originate from your space or the echo's space. You make this choice for each attack. When a creature that you can see within 5 feet of your echo moves at least 5 feet away from it, you can use your reaction to make an opportunity attack against that creature as if you were in the echo's space.

Unleash Incarnation

At 3rd level, you can heighten your echo's fury. Whenever you take the Attack action, you can make one additional melee attack from the echo's position.

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

Echo Avatar

Starting at 7th level, you can temporarily transfer your consciousness to your echo. As an action, you can see through your echo's eyes and hear through its ears. During this time, you are deafened and blinded. You can sustain this effect for up to 10 minutes, and you can end it at any time (requires no action). While your echo is being used in this way, it can be up to 1,000 feet away from you without being destroyed.

Shadow Martyr

Starting at 11th level, you can make your echo throw itself in front of an attack directed at another creature that you can see. Before the attack roll is made, you can use your reaction to teleport the echo to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the targeted creature. The attack roll that triggered the reaction is instead made against your echo.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest unless you expend a Tactical Die.

Reclaim Potential

By 15th level, you've learned to absorb the fleeting magic of your echo. When an echo of yours is destroyed by taking damage, you can gain a number of temporary hit points equal to 2d6 + your Constitution modifier, provided you don't already have temporary hit points.

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

Legion of One

At 20th level, you can use a bonus action to create two echos with your Manifest Echo feature, and these echoes can co-exist. If you try to create a third echo, the previous two echoes are destroyed. Anything you can do from one echo's position can be done from the other's instead.

In addition, when you roll initiative and have no uses of your Unleash Incarnation feature left, you regain one use of that feature.

Guerrilla Maneuvers

Mobilization

At 3rd level, you widen the focus of your maneuvers. When you use a maneuver that targets only one friendly creature you can apply the effects of that maneuver to another friendly creature that also meets the prerequisites of the maneuver.

Once you reach 15th level, you can apply the effects of that maneuver to an amount of creatures equal to your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier (your choice).

Defensive Tactics

At 7th level, your presence gives off an air of protection. All friendly creatures within 10 feet of you gain the following features:

• Their AC increases by 1
• They can use an action to give themself temporary hit points equal to a roll of your Tactical Die if they don't already have temporary hit points
• At the start of their turns they can attempt a saving throw to end an effect on themself that would normally be made at the end of their turn.

Lessons of War

Starting at 11th level, when you complete a long rest you can teach a creature a maneuver you know. The creature can use one maneuver that you know once and loses the ability to do so after using the maneuver or when they complete a long rest. If the maneuver requires a Tactical Die, the creature uses a d6, and if a saving throw is required the creature uses your maneuver save DC reduced by 1d6.

Hero

At 20th level, you become a beacon of valiance to your allies. When another friendly creature within 60 feet of you fails a saving throw, you can expend a use of your indomitable feature to turn the failure into a success. After using this feature, you do not regain that use of your indomitable feature until 10 days have passed.

Illaqueator Maneuvers

Trap Smithing

When you take this archetype at 3rd level, you have learned to design and manufacture dangerous and deadly traps to litter across the battlefield. These are known as your hunter's traps. You gain proficiency with thieves' tools if you aren't proficient with them already. Over the course of a short rest while you are holding thieves' tools or a set of artisan's tools with which you are proficient, you can create a number of hunter's traps equal to your proficiency bonus. You can maintain a total number of traps equal to the amount of specialist maneuvers you know. If you attempt to create another beyond this limit the first trap becomes nonfunctional.

As an attack action you can arm then deploy one of the traps you have made into an unoccupied space within 15 feet of you. The hunter's traps you can create are detailed at the end of the class description. When you create an enhanced trap that has a Tactical Die prerequisite you must expend a Tactical Die when you deploy the trap, otherwise the trap behaves as if it were not enhanced. If a trap requires a creature to make a saving throw it uses your maneuver save DC. All the traps are small objects with an AC equal to your maneuver save DC and hit points equal to your Specialist level. They have immunity to poison and psychic damage.

Additionally, you can create mechanisms. Mechanisms can be attached to a deployed trap as an attack action or in the same action you deploy the trap. They add or change the effects of attached traps as detailed at the end of this class description with the traps available to you.

Nimble Fingers

Also at 3rd level, you have expedited your ability to interface with the mechanisms of traps. You can attempt to arm or disarm a trap as a bonus action, additionally you have advantage on saving throws against the effects of non-magical traps.

Ranged Deployment

At 7th level, you extend the range at which you can set and arm traps. The range that you can deploy your traps increases to 30 feet and, once per turn as a bonus action, you can attach and arm a trap you have created onto a piece of ammunition or weapon with the thrown property that you are holding. The attached trap is deployed in the space where the item stops. If the item hits a creature the trap immediately triggers, centered on the hit creature.

Enhanced Traps

Once you reach 11th level, you further augmented your traps with more complex mechanisms. When you create a hunter's trap, you can create two enhanced traps instead of normal ones. The amount of enhanced traps you can create at once increases to 4 at 15th level and 6 at 20th level.

Strategic Synergy

Starting at 15th level, you adapt your tactics to connect with your traps. When you deploy a trap you can use one of your known tactical maneuvers that applies to weapon attacks, treating the first damage dealt by the trap as if it were a melee weapon attack for the purposes of the maneuver. You expend a Tactical Die as usual and if the maneuver requires concentration, it is treated as if concentration immediately ends.

Master of Traps

At 20th level, you have become an expert in the intricacies and most minute details about traps. You have advantage on saving throws made to avoid the effects of all traps while you aren't incapacitated. Additionally, you can use an action on your turn to expend a Tactical Die to immediately create and arm a trap on the fly. The trap does not count against the amount of traps you can create and ceases to function after 1 minute or if it is triggered.

Knight Maneuvers

Magical Foci

Beginning when you take this subclass at 3rd level, choose one of the following focuses that you direct your magical path toward. Arcane, Eldritch, Frontier, Runic. Your choice determines what spellcasting list this subclass uses.

Once you reach 11th level, you can choose a second magical foci, gaining all the features of both foci.

Cantrips

You learn two cantrips of your choice from your chosen spell list. You learn an additional cantrip of your choice at 10th level.

Spell Slots

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

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

Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher

When you gain this feature, choose one of the schools of magic to focus your spellcasting within.

You know three 1st-level spells of your choice, two of which you must choose from your focused school on your chosen spell list.

The Spells Known column of the Knight Spellcasting table shows when you learn more spells of 1st level or higher. Each of these spells must be from your focused school, and must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 7th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

The spells you learn at 8th, 14th, and 20th level can come from any school of magic.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the spells you know with another spell of your choice from your chosen spell list. The new spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots, and it must be from your focused school, unless you're replacing a spell you gained at 3rd, 8th, 14th, or 20th level.

Spellcasting Ability

Your spellcasting ability for your chosen spell list is determined by your chosen magical foci. You use your chosen whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your chosen modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Once you reach 11th level and choose a second magical foci, you can choose one modifier to use for your spellcasting. When you complete a long rest, you can change this modifier to use another one you have access to.

Strategic Spellcraft

Starting at 7th level, you discover ways to transfer your tactical abilities into magic. As a bonus action, you can transform unexpended Tactical Dice into one spell slot. The Tactical Spell Slots table show the cost of creating a spell slot of a given level. Any spell slot you create with this feature vanishes when you finish a long rest.

Occult Empowerment

At 15th level, you bolster your abilities connected to your spellcasting. When you complete a long rest, you gain proficiency in a saving throw associated with your spellcasting ability if you do not have it already and add a d4 to any ability check made using the same ability.

Incarnation

Once you reach 20th level, your coalesced magical might imbues your form. You gain two of the following features depending on what two Magical Foci you chose.

Samurai Maneuvers

Fighting Spirit

Starting at 3rd level, your intensity in battle can shield you and help you strike true. As a bonus action on your turn, you can expend a Tactical Die to give yourself advantage on all weapon attack rolls until the end of the current turn. When you do so, you also gain 5 temporary hit points. The number of hit points increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 10 at 10th level and 15 at 15th level.

Elegant Courtier

Starting at 7th level, your discipline and attention to detail allow you to excel in social situations. Whenever you make a Charisma (Persuasion) check against a creature you have marked as your Ranger's Quarry, you gain a bonus to the check equal to your Wisdom modifier.

Your self-control also causes you to gain proficiency in Wisdom saving throws. If you already have this proficiency, you instead gain proficiency in Intelligence or Charisma saving throws (your choice).

Relentless Talent

At 11th level, you press your superiority when you strike true. When you score a critical hit on an attack, you can use a maneuver you know without expending a Tactical Die to do so. Once you reach 20th level and use this feature, you regain an expended Tactical Die.

Rapid Strikes

Starting at 15th level, you learn to trade accuracy for swift strikes. If you take the Attack action on your turn and have advantage on an attack roll against against one of the targets, you can forgo the advantage for that roll to make an additional weapon attack against that target, as part of the same action. You can use this feature only once per turn.

Strength Before Death

Starting at 20th level, your fighting spirit can delay the grasp of death. If you take damage that reduces you to 0 hit points, you can use your reaction to delay falling unconscious, and you can immediately take an extra turn. While you have 0 hit points during that extra turn, taking damage causes death saving throw failures as normal, and three death saving throw failures can still kill you. When the extra turn ends, you fall unconscious if you still have 0 hit points.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.

Scion Maneuvers

Mythic Arm

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you wield a mythic arm, an extremely powerful weapon brimming with boundless potential for you to unlock. How you acquired this mythic arm is up to you, but it must be a weapon you are proficient with.

When you reach 3rd level, choose one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, necrotic, poison, radiant, or thunder. All mythic arm attacks made with the additional action granted by your action surge deal 1d8 of your chosen damage along with your weapon damage.

Wielding Legend

At 3rd level, the powerful magic that makes your weapon a mythic arm protects it from tampering. Your mythic arm cannot rust, be dulled, have its shape altered, or break, and you cannot be disarmed while wielding your mythic arm as long as you're not incapacitated.

Additionally, your mythic arm can absorb the enchantment of another weapon. When you acquire an enchanted weapon, you can take one hour to transfer the enchantment from the enchanted weapon into your mythic arm. For example, if you wield a longsword as your mythic arm and acquire a +1 handaxe that has advantage on all attack rolls against beasts, you can take one hour to transfer that enchantment to your mythic arm, after which it will be a +1 longsword that has advantage on all attack rolls against beasts. If you do not meet the prerequisites to attune to the weapon, you cannot transfer its enchantment into your mythic arm. If the enchantment is unique to the weapon type, it cannot be transferred; for example, an enchantment on a longbow that allows it to shoot fire arrows can be transferred to a crossbow, but not a greataxe. The mythic arm can only contain one enchantment at a time; if you pass a different enchantment from a different weapon onto it, this new enchantment replaces the previous one.

One of a Kind

At 7th level, your knowledge of your mythic arm and its magic nature increases your understanding of other magical items. While your mythic arm is in your possession, you have an additional attunement slot.

Unlocked Potential

At 11th level, the bond between you and your mythic arm allows you to draw even more power from your weapon. The additional damage you deal when making an attack with your mythic arm with the additional action granted by your action surge increases to a d10. At 18th level, it becomes a d12.

Wondrous Wielder

At 15th level, you gain further control of your mythic arm, and you can manipulate the way you wield it in battle to transcend the limits of normal weapons. At the end of a long rest, you can select one of the following weapon properties to apply to your mythic arm: finesse, light, reach, or thrown.

Mythic Scion

At 20th level, your mythic arm has become an extension of yourself, unlocking its full potential. Whenever you make an attack roll after you use your action surge, you treat all rolls of 9 or lower as a 10, and those attack rolls cannot be made at disadvantage.

Slayer Maneuvers

Foe. You've studied the minds and behaviors of humanoid shaped creatures of most kinds. Your Slayer's Prey is giants and humanoids. Once you reach 15th level, whenever your prey makes an attack roll against you and doesn't have advantage on the roll, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on it.

Monster. Your targets are the monsters of the world, natural or otherwise. Your Slayer's Prey is beasts, chimera, plants, and vermin. Once you reach 15th level, when your prey forces you to make a saving throw, you can expend a Tactical Die to add it to the roll.

Befouled. You have dedicated yourself to eliminating utterly unnatural beings. Your Slayer's Prey is aspects, oozes, and undead. Once you reach 15th level, you gain resistance to melee damage dealt by your prey.

Swarmkeeper Maneuvers

Gathered Swarm

At 3rd level, a swarm of intangible nature spirits has bonded itself to you and can assist you in battle. You determine its appearance and, until you die, the swarm remains in your space, crawling on you or flying and skittering around you within your space.

Once on each of your turns, you can cause the swarm to assist you in one of the following ways, immediately after you hit a creature with an attack:

• The attack's target takes 1d6 piercing damage from the swarm.
• The attack's target must succeed on a Strength saving throw against your maneuver save DC or be moved by the swarm up to 15 feet horizontally in a direction of your choice.
• You are moved by the swarm 5 feet horizontally in a direction of your choice.

Otherworldly Presence

Additionally at 3rd level, your swarm augments your demeanor to aid in your charms or otherwise. As a result, whenever you make a Charisma check, you gain a bonus to the check equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1).

In addition, you gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Deception, Intimidation, or Persuasion.

Writhing Tide

Beginning at 7th level, you can condense part of your swarm into a focused mass that lifts you up. As a bonus action, you gain a flying speed of 10 feet and can hover. This effect lasts for 1 minute or until you are incapacitated.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Wondrous Swarm

At 11th level, your Gathered Swarm grows mightier in the following ways:

• The damage of Gathered Swarm increases to 1d8.
• If a creature fails its saving throw against being moved by the Gathered Swarm, you can also cause the swarm to knock the creature prone.
• When you are moved by Gathered Swarm, it gives you half cover until the start of your next turn.

Swarming Dispersal

When you reach 15th level, you can discorporate into your swarm, avoiding danger. When you take damage, you can expend a Tactical Die and use your reaction to give yourself resistance to that damage. You vanish into your swarm and then teleport to an unoccupied space that you can see within 30 feet of you, where you reappear with the swarm.

Grand Hive

At 20th level, your body becomes the perfect hive for your swarm. Your AC permanently increases by +1 and you can cast the telekinesis spell, requiring no components. Your spellcasting ability for the spell is Intelligence. On each of your turns while you concentrate on the spell, including the turn when you cast it, you can make one weapon attack as a bonus action.

Once you cast the spell with this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a Tactical Die to cast it again.

Tier One Maneuvers

When you hit with an attack or succeed a saving throw, you can make a Strength or Charisma (Intimidation) check directed toward a creature that can see you, adding a Tactical Die to the roll. Your target must make a Wisdom saving throw against your check. On a failure, your target becomes frightened until the end of their next turn.

Avenging Stance

Second Tier Maneuver

When you use an action to cast a spell, you can expend a Tactical Die to take the Dash action as a bonus action. Additionally you gain a +1 bonus to your AC until the start of your next turn.

Arcane Deflection

Third Tier Maneuver

The following is some examples of homebrew used in the playtesting of this book as well as other creations that fit in well within the land of Solicia and Acarro as a whole. These are not necessary for the world to be fully fleshed out, they are just fun and interesting ideas that mesh well.

Weapon Properties

Concealed. As long as you are wearing clothes/armor that could hide this weapon you have advantage on Dexterity (sleight of hand) checks made to conceal this weapon.
