# The Ranger
Rough and wild looking, a human stalks alone through the shadows of trees, hunting the orcs he knows are planning a raid on a nearby farm. Clutching a shortsword in each hand, he becomes a whirlwind of steel, cutting down one enemy after another.

After tumbling away from a cone of freezing air, an elf finds her feet and draws back her bow to loose an arrow at the white dragon. Shrugging off the wave of fear that emanates from the dragon like the cold of its breath, she sends one arrow after another to find the gaps between the dragon’s thick scales.

Holding his hand high, a half-elf whistles to the hawk that circles high above him, calling the bird back to his side. Whispering instructions in Elvish, he points to the owlbear he’s been tracking and sends the hawk to distract the creature while he readies his bow.

Far from the bustle of cities and towns, past the hedges that shelter the most distant farms from the terrors of the wild, amid the dense-packed trees of trackless forests and across wide and empty plains, rangers keep their unending watch.

### Creating a Ranger
As you create your ranger character, consider the nature of the training that gave you your particular capabilities. Did you train with a single mentor, wandering the wilds together until you mastered the ranger's ways? Did you leave your apprenticeship, or was your mentor slain—perhaps by the same kind of monster that became your favored enemy? Or perhaps you learned your skills as part of a band of rangers affiliated with a druidic circle, trained in mystic paths as well as wilderness lore. You might be self-taught, a recluse who learned combat skills, tracking, and even a magical connection to nature through the necessity of surviving in the wilds.

What's the source of your particular hatred of a certain kind of enemy? Did a monster kill someone you loved or destroy your home village? Or did you see too much of the destruction these monsters cause and commit yourself to reining in their depredations? Is your adventuring career a continuation of your work in protecting the borderlands, or a significant change? What made you join up with a band of adventurers? Do you find it challenging to teach new allies the ways of the wild, or do you welcome the relief from solitude that they offer?

\columnbreak

#### Quick Build
You can make a ranger quickly by following these suggestions. First, make Dexterity your highest ability score, followed by Wisdom. (Some rangers who focus on two-weapon fighting make Strength higher than Dexterity.) Second, choose the outlander background.

## Class Features
As a ranger, you gain the following class features.

#### Hit Points
___
- **Hit Dice:** 1d10 per ranger level
- **Hit Points at 1st Level:** 10 + your Constitution modifier
- **Hit Points at Higher Levels:** 1d10 (or 6) + your Constitution modifier per ranger level after 1st

#### Proficiencies
___
- **Armor:** Light armor, medium armor, shields
- **Weapons:** Simple weapons, martial weapons
- **Tools:** Herbalism Kit
- **Saving Throws:** Strength, Dexterity
- **Skills:** Choose four from Animal Handling, Athletics, Insight, Investigation, Nature, Perception, Stealth, and Survival

#### Equipment
You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:
- *(a)* scale mail or *(b)* leather armor
- *(a)* two simple melee weapons or *(b)* One martial weapon and a shield
- *(a)* a dungeoneer's pack or *(b)* an explorer's pack
- *(a)* a longbow and a quiver of 20 arrows or *(b)* a light crossbow and 20 bolts

Alternatively, you can roll 4d4 x 10 gp and buy your starting equipment.

### Ranger Multiclassing
Ranger follow all the normal rules for multiclassing. The following tables function as additions to the normal multiclassing rules.

***Ability Score Minimum.*** As a multiclass character, you must have at least a Dexterity and Intelligence score of 13 to take a level in this class, or to take a level in another class if you are already a ranger.

***Proficiencies Gained.*** If Ranger isn’t your initial class, here are the proficiencies you gain when you take your first level as a ranger: Light armor, medium armor, shields, simple weapons, martial weapons, one skill from the class's skill list

***Spell Slots.*** Add half your levels in the Ranger class, rounded down, to the appropriate levels from other classes to determine your available spell slots.

***Ranger Proficiency Bonus.*** When multiclassed, any ranger class feature that refers to your ranger proficiency bonus refers to what your proficiency bonus would be if only taking your ranger levels into account. If not multiclassed, this value will equal your regular proficiency bonus. Refer to the Ranger Class Table in the Proficiency Bonus column for your ranger level for what your ranger proficiency bonus is.

\pagebreakNum

### Canny
*1st-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your skillset is uniquely adapted to the environments through which you've traveled. Choose one of your skill proficiencies. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make using the chosen skill. You can also speak, read, and write 2 additional languages of your choice.

### Favored Foe
*1st-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your bond with nature and your hunting instincts allow you to place a mystical mark on a creature. You know the *hunter’s mark* spell, it is always prepared for you and doesn’t count against your number of prepared spells, Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for it, and you can cast it without expending a spell slot a number of times equal to your ranger proficiency bonus without expending a spell slot, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. The level at which you cast the spell when you cast it through this feature is equal to your ranger proficiency bonus minus one, and whenever you cast the spell it can’t be counterspelled or dispelled.

When you reach 6th level in this class, *hunter’s mark* no longer requires concentration whenever you cast it.

When you reach 14th level in this class, whenever you cast *hunter’s mark* it is always cast 2 levels higher than normal, whether you cast it through this feature or with spell slots.

### Weapon Mastery
*1st-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your training with weapons allows you to use the Mastery properties of two kinds of weapons of your choice with which you have proficiency, such as Shortswords and Longbows.

Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can change one of your weapons for which you can use the Mastery property.

### Fighting Style
*2nd-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can’t take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

#### Archery
You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with ranged weapons.

#### Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.

#### Druidic Warrior
You learn two cantrips of your choice from the Druid spell list. They count as ranger spells for you, and Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for them. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of these cantrips with another cantrip from the Druid spell list.

#### Dueling
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon, as well as a +2 bonus to Dexterity saving throws.

\columnbreak

#### Thrown Weapon Fighting
You can draw a weapon that has the thrown property as part of the attack you make with the weapon. In addition, when you hit with a ranged attack using a thrown weapon, you gain a +2 bonus to the damage roll.

#### Two-Weapon Fighting
When you engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your ability modifier to the damage of any offhand attacks.

\pagebreakNum

### Spellcasting
*2nd-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You have learned to use the magical essence of nature to cast spells, much as a druid does. See the general rules of spellcasting and the ranger spell list.

The Ranger table shows how many spell slots you have 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.

#### Preparing and Casting Spells
You prepare the list of ranger spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the ranger spell list. When you do so, choose a number of ranger spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + half your ranger level, rounded down (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

\columnbreak

For example, if you are a 5th-level ranger, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Wisdom of 14, your list of prepared spells can include four 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 a 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn’t remove it from your list of prepared spells.

You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of ranger spells requires time spent in quiet contemplation and preparation: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.

#### Spellcasting Ability

Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your ranger spells, since your magic draws on your knowledge of the wood and the creatures that you so often hunt. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a ranger spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

 </font>

### Set Trap
*2nd-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You learn how to make traps, as detailed in the Ranger Traps table below. Details about these traps can be found in the Ranger Traps section of this document.

#### Physical Traps
Creating a physical trap takes 10 minutes (which can be done during a Short or Long Rest) and uses trap-making materials (valued in gp) specified in the trap’s description. After a physical trap activates, its materials are consumed and the trap can’t be used again. However, over the course of 10 minutes, you can salvage half the trap-making materials used in the physical trap’s construction if it hasn’t activated yet. 1 gp worth of trap-making materials weighs 1 lb.

#### Magical Traps
Immediately after you finish a Long Rest, you can create magical traps—up to a number equal to your Ranger Proficiency Bonus—choosing from the options in the Ranger Traps section in this document. Some of these traps require you to expend spell slots in their creation. When you finish a Long Rest, all undeployed magical traps lose their effects.

While a physical trap’s description specifies how it is activated, you have flexibility in activating your magical traps. When you deploy a magical trap, you can choose a size of creature and a distance of up to 30 feet. When a creature of that size or larger comes within the specified distance of an armed trap, the trap activates. As another option, you can intentionally activate an armed magical trap within 150 feet of you using a Bonus Action or a Reaction (with no specific trigger).

\pagebreakNum

| Ranger Level  | Traps |
|:---:|:-----------|
|  2nd  | Bear Trap, *Tanglevine*, Snare Trap, *Solestriker* |
|  5th  | *Immolation*, *Miasma*, Pit Trap |
|  9th  | *Bewilderment*, Net Trap, *Thunder Charge* |
|  13th | Catapult Trap, *Infection*, *Snapfrost* |
|  17th | *Banisher*, *Gravity Well* |

#### Deploying a Trap
As an Action or as a replacement for an Attack, you can throw a trap you have created to an unoccupied space you can see on the ground within 30 feet of you, where it arms itself at the start of your next turn. A trap deployed in this way is plainly visible to all creatures.

Over the course of 1 minute, you can conceal a trap. A concealed trap can be noticed by a creature that uses the Search Action to make a Wisdom (Perception) check against your ranger save DC and succeeds.

#### Disarming a Trap
Attempting to move an armed trap causes it to activate, unleashing its effects. A creature within reach of a trap can use a Utilize Action to make a Dexterity (thieves’ tools) check (for physical traps) or a spellcasting ability (Arcana) check (for magical traps) against your ranger save DC. On a success, the trap is disarmed. On a failure, the trap activates and the creature has Disadvantage on any saving throw it makes to resist the trap’s effects. As a Magic Action, you can remotely disarm one of your traps that is within 150 feet of you.

#### Trap Effects
Spell effects created by a trap don’t require Concentration. When a trap calls for a saving throw, the DC equals your ranger spell save DC. You can have multiple traps deployed, but any attempt to deploy a magical trap whose center is within 40 feet of the center of another magical trap fails. Creatures with Truesight or that are under the influence of the Detect Magic spell can notice a magical trap’s presence, even if it has been concealed.

### Ranger Conclave
*3rd-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You choose a ranger conclave whose ideals you strive to emulate. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 11th, and 15th level.

#### Conclave Spells
Each conclave has a list of spells — its conclave spells — that you gain at the ranger levels noted in the conclave description. Once you gain a conclave spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day.

If you have a conclave spell that doesn’t appear on the ranger spell list, the spell is nonetheless a ranger spell for you.

\columnbreak

### Primeval Awareness
*3rd-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You can use your action and expend one spell slot to focus your awareness on the region around you. For 1 minute per level of the spell slot you expend, you can sense whether the following types of creatures are present within 1 mile of you (or within up to 6 miles if you are in your favored terrain): aberrations, beasts, dragons, elementals, fey, giants, monstrosities, oozes or plants. This feature also reveals specifics about the creatures detected including quantity, direction, distance and size. If the creatures are within 60 feet of you, you become aware of their exact locations and can see them as if they were visible to you.

You can also focus your awareness through the interconnections of nature: you learn additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class if you don't already know them, as shown in the Primal Awareness Spells table. These spells don't count against the number of ranger spells you know.

| Ranger Level  | Spell |
|:---:|:-----------|
|  3rd  | *speak with animals* |
|  5th  | *beast sense* |
|  9th  | *speak with plants* |
|  13th  | *locate creature* |
|  17th  | *commune with nature* |

You can cast each of these spells once without expending a spell slot. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

### Ability Score Improvement
*4th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1, or you can take a feat. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

### Extra Attack
*5th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

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

### Roving
*6th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your walking speed increases by 5, and you gain a climbing speed and a swimming speed equal to your walking speed.

\pagebreakNum

### Tireless
*10th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

As an Action, you can give yourself a number of temporary hit points equal to 1d8 + your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 temporary hit point). You can use this action a number of times equal to your Ranger Proficiency Bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

The temporary hit points increase by 1d8 at 14th level (2d8+Int mod), and again at 18th level (3d8+Int mod).

In addition, whenever you finish a Short Rest, your Exhaustion level, if any, is decreased by 1.

### Leave No Trace
*10th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You’ve learnt to use magic to hide traps, allowing them to be concealed in the heat of battle. When you deploy a trap, you can expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher to disguise the trap with illusion magic, causing it to become Invisible the moment it leaves your hands. Creatures don’t see where the trap lands and, if it’s a physical trap, have Disadvantage on saving throws made to avoid the trap’s effects.

In addition, you learn the *Invisibility* spell, which counts as a ranger spell for you, but doesn’t count against the number of ranger spells you know. You can cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to cast it in this way when you finish a Short or Long Rest.

### Booby Trap
*14th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You trap your own body against unexpected demise. When you finish a Long Rest, you can choose one of the following magical effects with which to augment your body until you finish a Long Rest. After triggering an effect that activates when you are reduced to 0 hit points, that effect can’t trigger again until you finish a Long Rest.

***Defibrillate.*** Once per turn, when a creature hits you with a melee attack, you can trigger an electrical discharge (no action required). The creature is unable to take Reactions until the start of its next turn unless it is immune to Lightning damage, and you can immediately move up to 10 feet without provoking opportunity attacks. After you move using this feature, you can’t do so again until the start of your next turn.

When you are reduced to 0 hit points and not killed outright, you can instead drop to 1 hit point and immediately take an extra turn, interrupting the current turn. If you don’t regain any hit points before the end of your next turn, you drop to 0 hit points, fall Unconscious, and begin making death saving throws as normal.

***Dissolve.*** Once per turn, when a creature within 5 feet of you hits you with a melee attack, you can trigger a spurt of acid to coat its weapon or limb (no action required). If the melee attack was a spell attack or made with a natural weapon, the creature takes 1d6 Acid damage. If the result of the attack roll meets your AC and is made with a ferrous, non-magical, non-natural weapon, the acid causes the metal to weaken and the weapon is destroyed.

When you are reduced to 0 hit points, all your concealed acid charges gush outward. Each creature within 10 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw against your ranger spell save DC. On a failed save, a creature takes 10d4 Acid damage and an additional 5d4 Acid damage at the start of each of its turns for the next minute until it uses an Action to wipe itself clean. In addition, on a failure, if the creature rolled a 1 on the d20 for its saving throw and is wearing nonmagical, ferrous armor, the armor seizes. While wearing the armor, the creature’s speed is halved, its AC is reduced by 2, and it has Disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws.

***Entomb.*** Once per turn, when a creature within 5 feet of you hits you with a melee attack, you can trigger a burst of cold that ripples along the attacker’s limb (no action required). The creature takes 1d4 Cold damage and its speed is reduced by 15 feet until the end of its next turn unless it is immune to Cold damage.

When you are reduced to 0 hit points, you become entombed in a block of clear ice that has AC 15, 100 hit points, immunity to Cold damage, and vulnerability to Fire damage. This icy block lasts for 1 minute or until it is destroyed. While the ice persists, you have total cover against all effects and you don’t make death saving throws. If you regain 1 or more hit points, the icy block melts at the start of your next turn.

***Self-Destruct.*** Once per turn, when a creature within 5 feet of you hits you with a melee attack, you can cause a small, shaped charge to detonate (no action required). You and the creature take 1d8 Fire damage.

When you are reduced to 0 hit points, you erupt in an immense ball of fire and immediately fail two death saving throws. Each creature within 20 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw against your ranger spell save DC. A creature takes 14d6 Fire damage on a failed saving throw, or half as much damage on a successful one.

### Feral Senses
*18th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your senses have reached a preternatural level. You gain Blindsight to a range of 30 feet, and your attack rolls against creatures within 30 feet of you cannot be made with disadvantage. You also cannot be surprised.

### Apex Ranger
*20th-level Ranger feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You become an unparalleled hunter of your enemies, acting supernaturally quickly during combat against your favored foe. Once per round, after a creature marked as your favored foe has taken its turn, you can take a special action. You can use this special action to move up to half your movement speed and take either the Attack (one Weapon Attack only, and only against a target of your *Hunter's Mark* spell), Dash, Disengage, Hide, or Utilize Action.

## Ranger Conclaves

\pagebreakNum

### Beast Master Conclave
The Beast Master archetype embodies a friendship between the civilized races and the beasts of the wild. United in focus, beast and ranger fight the monsters that threaten civilization and the wilderness alike.

#### Beast Master Spells
| Ranger Level  | Spells |
|:---:|:-----------|
|  3rd  | *longstrider* |
|  5th  | *summon beast* |
|  9th  | *haste* |
|  13th | *giant insect* |
|  17th | *skill empowerment* |

#### Ranger's Companion
*3rd-level Beast Master feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You gain a beast companion that accompanies you on your adventures, is trained to fight alongside you, and draws strength from your bond with nature.

You magically summon a primal beast, which draws strength from your bond with nature. The beast is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands. Choose its stat block-Beast of the Land, Beast of the Sea, or Beast of the Sky (found on the next page)-which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. You also determine the kind of animal the beast is, choosing a kind appropriate for the stat block. Whatever kind you choose, the beast bears primal markings, indicating its mystical origin.

Like any creature, it can spend Hit Dice during a short rest to regain hit points.  In addition the ranger can tend to the creature during a long or short rest, in which case the ranger may spend their own hit dice on behalf of the creature.  These hit dice are rolled using the rangers die type (d10) plus the Constitution modifier of the creature.

If you attempt to control the actions of the beast, it obeys your commands as best as it can. It takes its turn on your initiative.

On your turn, you can verbally command the beast where to move and you can verbally command it to take the Dash, Disengage, or Dodge action (no action required by you).

If you use your action, you can command it to take the attack action, in which case it will continue to attack the same target without an action by you until that target dies or falls unconscious.

If you don't issue a command, the DM determines the action of the beast, if any. Once you have the Extra Attack feature, and you take the Attack Action, you may give up one attack to command the creature to take the Attack Action.

If you are incapacitated or absent, the beast acts on its own, focusing on protecting you and itself. The beast never requires your command to use its reaction, such as when making an opportunity attack.

You can obtain a companion by spending 1 hour magically bonding with a beast that is not hostile to you and that meets the requirements.  If you already have a beast companion, the bond is lost with that creature when the new bond is formed.

Whenever your companion is subjected to an effect, such as a green dragon’s poison breath or a *lightning bolt* spell, that allows you to make a saving throw to take only half damage, your companion instead takes no damage if they succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if they fail.

In addition, the beast's attacks now count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

### Drakewarden Conclave
Drakewardens are rangers who use their magical connection with nature to form an enduring bond with a minor dragon, a drake. This bond allows the ranger to summon the drake to their side and to share in the awe inspiring power wielded by dragons.

Consider how your ranger gained their bond with the drake. The Drakewarden Origin table offers some examples.

| d6  | Origin |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  1  | You studied a dragon’s scale or claw, or a trinket from its hoard, and created your bond through the token’s lingering draconic magic. |
|  2  | A secret order of rangers who collect and guard draconic lore taught you their ways. |
|  3  | A true dragon gave you a drake egg to care for. When it hatched, the drake bonded to you. |
|  4  | You drank a few drops of dragon blood, forever infusing your nature magic with draconic power. |
|  5  | An ancient Draconic inscription on a standing stone empowered you when you read it aloud. |
|  6  | You had a vivid dream of a mysterious man, accompanied by seven yellow canaries, who warned you of impending doom. When you awoke, your drake was there, watching you. |

#### Drakewarden Spells
| Ranger Level  | Spells |
|:---:|:-----------|
|  3rd  | *ironbinds* |
|  5th  | *dragon's breath* |
|  9th  | *ashardalon's stride* |
|  13th | *fire shield* |
|  17th | *summon draconic spirit* |

\columnbreak

#### Draconic Gift
*3rd-level Drakewarden feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

The bond you share with your drake creates a deeper connection to dragon kind, granting you understanding and empowering your presence.

You gain the following benefits:

* If you can’t already, you learn to speak, read, and write Draconic.
* You learn the *thaumaturgy* cantrip, which is a ranger spell for you.

#### Drake Companion
*3rd-level Drake Warden feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You can magically summon the drake bound to you. As an action, you can summon the drake, which appears in an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within 30 feet of you.

The drake is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the Drake Companion stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. When you summon the drake, choose a damage type listed in its Draconic Essence trait. You can determine the cosmetic characteristics of the drake such as its color, scale texture, or any visible effect of its Draconic Essence; your choice has no effect on its game statistics.

In combat, the drake shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action, which can be the same bonus action you use to mark a creature as your Favored Foe, on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the drake can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.

Once you summon the drake, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher to summon it.

The drake remains until it is reduced to 0 hit points, until you use this feature to summon the drake again, or until you die. Anything the drake was wearing or carrying is left behind when the drake vanishes.

Once you summon the drake, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher to summon it.

#### Bond of Fang and Scale
*7th-level Drake Warden feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

The bond you share with your drake intensifies, protecting you and stoking the drake’s fury.

While your drake is summoned, you and the drake gain the following benefits:

* You gain resistance to the damage type chosen for the drake’s Draconic Essence.
* Choose one of the following: the drake gains a swimming speed of 40 feet and can breathe both air and water, or the drake grows wings and gains a flying speed of 40 feet.
* The drake’s bite attack deals an extra 1d6 damage of the type chosen for its Draconic Essence.

#### Drake's Breath
*11th-level Drake Warden feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

As an action, you can exhale a 30-foot cone of damaging breath or cause your drake to exhale it. Choose acid, cold, fire, lightning, or poison damage. Each creature in the cone must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 8d6 damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

This damage increases to 10d6 when you reach 15th level in this class.

Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it again.

\columnbreak

#### Perfected Bond

<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your bond to your drake reaches the pinnacle of its power. While your drake is summoned, you and the drake gain the following benefits:

* The drake grows to Large size.
* The drake’s bite attack deals an extra 1d6 damage of the type chosen for its Draconic Essence (for a total of 2d6 extra damage).
* When either you or the drake takes damage while you’re within 30 feet of each other, you can use your reaction to give yourself or the drake resistance to that instance of damage.

### Fey Wanderer Conclave
A fey mystique surrounds you, thanks to the boon of an archfey, the shining fruit you ate from a talking tree, the magic spring you swam in, or some other auspicious event. However you acquired your fey magic, you are now a Fey Wanderer, a ranger who represents both the mortal and the fey realms. As you wander the multiverse, your joyful laughter brightens the hearts of the downtrodden, and your martial prowess strikes terror in your foes, for great is the mirth of the fey and dreadful is their fury.

#### Dreadful Strikes
*3rd-level Fey Wanderer feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You can augment your weapon strikes with mind-scarring magic, drawn from the gloomy hollows of the Feywild. When you hit a creature with a weapon, you can deal an extra 1d4 psychic damage to the target, which can take this extra damage only once per turn.

The extra damage increases to 1d8 when you reach 11th level in this class, and again to 2d6 when you reach 17th level.

#### Fey Wanderer Spells
| Ranger Level  | Spells |
|:---:|:-----------|
|  3rd  | *charm* |
|  5th  | *misty step* |
|  9th  | *dispel magic* |

You also possess a preternatural blessing from a fey ally or a place of fey power. Choose your blessing from the Feywild Gifts table or determine it randomly.

#### Feywild Gifts Table
| d6  | Gift |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  1  | Illusory butterflies flutter around you while you take a short or long rest. |
|  2  | Fresh, seasonal flowers sprout from your hair each dawn. |

#### Otherworldly Glamour
*3rd-level Fey Wanderer feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your fey qualities give you a supernatural charm. 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, Performance, or Persuasion.

\columnbreak

#### Beguiling Twist
*7th-level Fey Wanderer feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

The magic of the Feywild guards your mind. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.

In addition, whenever you or a creature you can see within 120 feet of you succeeds on a saving throw against being charmed or frightened, you can use your reaction to force a different creature you can see within 120 feet of you to make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. If the save fails, the target is charmed or frightened by you (your choice) for 1 minute. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a successful save.

#### Fey Reinforcements
*11th-level Fey Wanderer feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

The royal courts of the Feywild have blessed you with the assistance of fey beings: you know the spell *summon fey*. It doesn't count against the number of ranger spells you know, and you can cast it without a material component. You can also cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest.

Whenever you start casting the spell, you can modify it so that it doesn't require concentration. If you do so, the spell's duration becomes 1 minute for that casting.

#### Misty Wanderer
*15th-level Fey Wanderer feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You can slip in and out of the Feywild to move in a blink of an eye: you can cast *misty step* without expending a spell slot. You can do so a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

In addition, whenever you cast *misty step*, you can bring along one willing creature you can see within 5 feet of you. That creature teleports to an unoccupied space of your choice within 5 feet of your destination space.

### Gloom Stalker Conclave
Gloom stalkers are at home in the darkest places: deep under the earth, in gloomy alleyways, in primeval forests, and wherever else the light dims. Most folk enter such places with trepidation, but a gloom stalker ventures boldly into the darkness, seeking to ambush threats before they can reach the broader world. Such rangers are often found in the Underdark, but they will go any place where evil lurks in the shadows.

\columnbreak

#### Gloom Stalker Spells

#### Umbral Sight
*3rd-level Gloom Stalker feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You gain darkvision out to a range of 60 feet. If you already have darkvision from your race, its range increases by 30 feet.

You are also adept at evading creatures that rely on darkvision. While in darkness, you are invisible to any creature that relies on darkvision to see you in that darkness.

#### Mind of the Dark
*7th-level Gloom Stalker feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Your mind gains comfort and resolution in the darkness where you strike. If you make an Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma saving throw while you are in darkness, you make the saving throw with advantage.

#### Stalker's Flurry
*11th-level Gloom Stalker feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You learn to attack with such unexpected speed that you can turn a miss into another strike. Once on each of your turns when you miss with a weapon attack, you can make another weapon attack as part of the same action.

#### Shadowy Dodge
*15th-level Gloom Stalker feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You can dodge in unforeseen ways, with wisps of supernatural shadow around you. Whenever a creature makes an attack roll against you and doesn't have advantage on the roll, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on it. You must use this feature before you know the outcome of the attack roll.

### Horizon Walker Conclave
Horizon walkers guard the world against threats that originate from other planes or that seek to ravage the mortal realm with otherworldly magic. They seek out planar portals and keep watch over them, venturing to the Inner Planes and the Outer Planes as needed to pursue their foes. These rangers are also friends to any forces in the multiverse – especially benevolent dragons, fey, and elementals – that work to preserve life and the order of the planes.

#### Planar Warrior
*3rd-level Horizon Walker feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You learn to draw on the energy of the multiverse to augment your attacks.

\columnbreak

As a bonus action, or as part of the same bonus action you use to mark your favored foe, you may choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of you. The next time you hit that creature on this turn with a weapon attack, all damage dealt by the attack becomes force damage, and the creature takes an extra 1d8 force damage from the attack. As you increase in levels in this class, the extra damage increases by 1d8 at 11th level (2d8), and again at 17th level (3d8).

### Monster Slayer Conclave
You have dedicated yourself to hunting down creatures of the night and wielders of grim magic. A monster slayer seeks out vampires, dragons, evil fey, fiends, and other magical threats. Trained in supernatural techniques to overcome such monsters, slayers are experts at unearthing and defeating mighty, mystical foes.

You gain the ability to peer at a creature and magically discern how best to hurt it. As an action, choose one creature you can see within 60 feet of you. You immediately learn whether the creature has any damage immunities, resistances, or vulnerabilities and what they are. If the creature is hidden from divination magic, you sense that it has no damage immunities, resistances, or vulnerabilities.

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.

\columnbreak

#### Slayer's Prey
*3rd-level Monster Slayer feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You can focus your ire on one foe, increasing the harm you inflict on it. As a bonus action, or as part of the same bonus action you use to mark a creature as your favored foe, you designate one creature you can see within 60 feet of you as the target of this feature. Your weapon attacks against that creature have their critical range increased by 1. This critical range increase improves to 2 at 11th level.

You gain the ability to thwart someone else's magic. When you see a creature casting a spell or teleporting within 60 feet of you, you can use your reaction to try to magically foil it.

### Swarmkeeper Conclave
Feeling a deep connection to the environment around them, some rangers reach out through their magical connection to the world and bond with a swarm of nature spirits. The swarm becomes a potent force in battle, as well as helpful company for the ranger. Some Swarmkeepers are outcasts or hermits, keeping to themselves and their attendant swarms rather than dealing with the discomfort of others. Other Swarmkeepers enjoy building vibrant communities that work for the mutual benefit of all those they consider part of their swarm.

#### Gathered Swarm
*3rd-level Swarmkeeper feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

A swarm of intangible nature spirits has bonded itself to you and can assist you in battle. Until you die, the swarm remains in your space, crawling on you or flying and skittering around you within your space. You determine its appearance, which might take the form of swarming insects, twig blights, fluttering birds, or pixies, for example.

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 spell 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.

You also learn the *mage hand* cantrip if you don't already know it. It is a ranger spell for you. When you cast it, the hand takes the form of your swarming nature spirits.

#### Swarmkeeper Spells
| Ranger Level  | Spells |

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 20 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 ranger proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

\columnbreak

#### Mighty Swarm
*11th-level Swarmkeeper feature*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

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
*15th-level Swarmkeeper feature*

You can discorporate into your swarm, avoiding danger. When you take damage, you can 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.

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

## Ranger Traps
The Set Trap feature lets you use a variety of physical and magical traps. Each trap requires you to be a certain ranger level before you can create it. The traps are presented here by level.

Physical traps require trap-making materials (which can be purchased from most general goods stores), while magical traps require the expenditure of spell slots. When a trap calls for a saving throw, the DC equals your ranger spell save DC.

#### Bear Trap
*2nd-level ranger; physical; 4 gp of trap-making materials*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

You trap a 5-foot square with a mechanical, toothy-jawed trap. When a Large or smaller creature enters the trapped area, the trap activates and the creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 2d8 Piercing damage, and its speed becomes 0 feet unless it’s immune to being Grappled. A creature can use its Action to make a Strength (Athletics) check against your ranger save DC, freeing the trapped creature on a success.

#### Tanglevine
*2nd-level ranger; magical; 1st-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, twisted, knotting roots burst through the ground, creating an effect identical to the Entangle spell within a 20-foot-radius circle centered on the trap for the next minute.

#### Snare Trap
*2nd-level ranger; physical; 2 gp of trap-making materials*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

The bear trap’s non-lethal cousin, the snare trap, tangles a creature’s feet, causing it to fall. You trap a 5-foot square with ropes and vines. When a Large or smaller creature moves into the trapped area, the trap activates and the creature must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone, and its speed becomes 0 feet unless it’s immune to being grappled. A creature can use its action to make a Strength (Athletics) check against your ranger save DC, freeing the trapped creature on a success.

#### Solestriker
*2nd-level ranger; magical; 1st-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, hard spikes and thorns sprout in a 20-foot-radius circle centered on the trap, creating an effect identical to the Spike Growth spell for the next minute.

#### Immolation
*5th-level ranger; magical; 2nd-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, a 20-foot-radius sphere of flame erupts, centered on the trap. Each creature in the area when the trap detonates must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 6d6 Fire damage on a failure, or half as much damage on a success.

\columnbreak

#### Miasma
*5th-level ranger; magical; 2nd-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on the trap fills with gas for the next minute or until strong wind disperses it. The gas spreads around corners, lightly obscures the area, and penetrates through creatures’ skin, affecting them even if they hold their breath or don’t need to breathe. When a creature enters the area for the first time on its turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 3d6 Poison damage and becomes Poisoned until the start of its next turn. On a success, a creature takes half as much damage and isn’t Poisoned. While Poisoned in this way, a creature has Disadvantage on saving throws it makes to maintain its Concentration.

#### Pit Trap
*5th-level ranger; physical; 2 gp of trap-making materials*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Because of their nature, pit traps are deployed in the space in which they are created as soon as their construction is finished, and can’t be moved. After the trap activates, you can spend 1 minute recovering it, allowing it to be used again.
You dig a 7-foot-deep hole in dirt, or another diggable surface, in a 5-foot square. You can choose to fill the pit with sharpened stakes, spikes, or any other sharp materials.
When a Medium or smaller creature moves into the trapped area, it must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, it falls into the pit, where it lands Prone, taking 4d8 Piercing damage if the trap is filled with spikes. On a success, it avoids the trap, falling Prone in the nearest unoccupied space to the trap. A creature that succeeds on the save by 5 or more doesn’t fall Prone.

#### Bewilderment
*9th-level ranger; magical; 3rd-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, horrifying illusions abound and psychic energy twists the minds of creatures. Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on the trap must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 3d10 Psychic damage and becomes affected as per the Confusion spell for the next minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

#### Net Trap
*9th-level ranger; physical; 10 gp of trap-making materials*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

With a large, concealed net of rope or vines, and an apparatus hidden in branches or a cave’s ceiling, you create a 20-foot square trapped area. Choose a 5-foot square within the trapped area to act as the trigger. When a Small or larger creature enters this square, the trap activates and each creature in the area must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be Restrained and hoisted 20 feet up into the air (or as high as the canopy/ceiling allows).

A creature can use an Escape Action to make a Strength check against your ranger save DC, freeing itself or another creature within its reach on a success. Dealing 5 Slashing damage to the net (AC 10) ends the effect and destroys the net.
If there is a Huge or larger creature in the trapped area when it triggers, the trap breaks and has no effect.

\pagebreakNum

#### Thunder Charge
*9th-level ranger; magical; 3rd-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, a 30-foot-radius sphere centered on the trap erupts with deafening thunder. Each creature in the area must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or take 8d6 Thunder damage and be Deafened for the next minute. The noise can be heard 2,000 feet away, or even further in echoey locations or underwater.

#### Catapult Trap
13th-level ranger; physical; 15 gp of trap-making materials*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

Because of their nature, catapult traps are deployed in the space in which they are created as soon as their construction is finished, and can’t be moved. With bent trees, springs, or elastic rope, you create a 20-foot square of tension. Choose a 5-foot square within the trapped area to act as the trigger.

When a Small or larger creature enters this square, the trap activates and each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a success, a creature can use its Reaction to move up to its speed so that it is no longer in the area. If it’s still in the area, it is affected as if it failed its save. A creature that fails the saving throw is flung 60 feet in a direction you decide when you deploy the trap, landing Prone and taking 6d10 Bludgeoning damage.

If there is a Gargantuan creature in the trapped area when it triggers, the trap breaks and has no effect.

#### Infection
*13th-level ranger; magical; 4th-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When you create this trap, choose one of the diseases from the Contagion spell. When activated, pustulant boils grow and erupt on surfaces in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on the trap. Each creature in the area must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, a creature is affected as if hit by the attack in the Contagion spell (using the disease you chose).

#### Snapfrost
*13th-level ranger; magical; 4th-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, the area within a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on the trap suddenly drops to a debilitatingly low temperature for the next minute. When a creature enters the area for the first time on its turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 6d6 Cold damage and, until the start of its next turn, its speed is halved and it can’t take Reactions. On a success, a creature takes half as much damage and isn’t otherwise affected.

#### Banisher
*17th-level ranger; magical; 5th-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, a 10-foot-radius sphere centered on the trap flares into life, attempting to suck all creatures in it into a harmless demiplane. Each creature in the area when the trap activates must succeed on a Charisma saving throw or be transported to the demiplane for the next minute. At the end of this minute, the creature reappears in the space it left, or in the nearest unoccupied space if that space is occupied.

\columnbreak

#### Gravity Well
*17th-level ranger; magical; 5th-level spell slot*
<div style='margin-top:-7px;'></div>

When activated, gravity begins accumulating in a 30-foot-radius circle centered on the trap. The trapped area becomes difficult terrain until the end of the ranger’s next turn. Each creature in the area when the trap activates must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be knocked Prone. Furthermore, each creature in the area that is Concentrating must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature’s Concentration is broken.

A creature that starts its turn in the area must succeed on a Strength saving throw or take 2d8 Force damage and be pulled 15 feet towards the trap’s center.

At the end of the ranger’s next turn, the gravity reaches a critical mass and each creature in the area must make a Strength saving throw. On a failure, a creature is knocked Prone, pulled to the trap’s center, and takes 6d8 Force damage. On a success, a creature isn’t knocked Prone or moved, and takes half as much Force damage.
