Invoke Element

When you choose this circle at 2nd level, you gain an alternate use for Wild Shape. As a bonus action, you can expend a use of your Wild Shape to invoke primal powers to manifest elemental forces at a point within 60 feet. When you invoke this power, select an element to invoke, which has a different effect.

• Air: Coalesced Lightning. When you manifest the power, and as a bonus action on subsequent turns, you can force one creature within 30 feet of the point to make a Dexterity saving throw, or be struck by an arc of lightning, taking 1d6 + your Wisdom modifier damage.
• Earth: Stone Pillar. When you manifest the power, a stone eruption fills an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the point, rising up to 10 feet and blocking the space. It has an AC of 16 and hit points equal to your Wisdom modifier + your druid level. The pillar is three quarters cover for creatures behind it. It becomes difficult terrain when destroyed.
• Fire: Wildfire. The area within 5 feet of the point is filled with flames. Creatures that start their turn in the area take 1d6 fire damage.
• Water: Icy Blizzard. The area within 5 feet of the point is filled with an icy storm of sleet, becoming difficult terrain.

You can move an elemental manifestation up to 20 feet on subsequent turns as a bonus action. If you move a stone pillar, the pillar is destroyed and you can create a new pillar.

Instead of moving a Wildfire or Icy Blizzard, you can expand their radius by 5 feet as a bonus action, up to a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. Their radius is reset to the base size if you move them. You are unaffected by the effects of your own elemental manifestations (though cannot move through stone pillars you create unless otherwise able to).

The manifested elemental lasts for 1 minute, ending early if you dismiss it (no action required), are incapacitated, die, or use this feature again.

Elemental Spells

Additionally at 2nd level, your mystical connection to the primal powers allows you to learn additional elemental spells. When you pick a druid spell, you can additionally select from the Circle of Elements Expanded Spells listed at the end of this subclass. The number of spells you can prepare increases by 1 when you gain this feature, and again at 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th levels.

Primal Sculpting

Starting at 6th level, when you deal bludgeoning, cold, fire, or lightning damage with Invoke Elements or a druid spell, you can choose a number of creatures equal to your proficiency bonus that you can see to exclude from the effect.

The chosen creatures automatically pass their saving throw (if applicable) against the effect, and take no damage from the effect.

Paraelemental Manifestations

Starting at 10th level, when you invoke an element, you can expend 2 uses of Wild Shape to invoke two elements at once in the same area.

• Dust: Dust Cloud. The area within 10 feet of the point becomes heavily obscured. Creatures attempting to speak in the area must make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC, or be muted until the start of their next turn or they exit the dust cloud. You can expand or move this Dust Cloud with your Invoke Elements feature.
• Fog, Smoke, or Steam: Obscuring Cloud. The area has the effect of both contributing powers in addition the area covered by Wildfire or Icy Blizzard also becomes heavily obscured.
