Fireman's Conclave

Deep in the elvish forests a stray strike of lightning ignites the dry leaf litter starting a ferocious wildfire. The villagers are not quick enough to escape the blaze as it tears through their homes and darkens their skies, a long child screams for help trapped in a burning home unable to escape. A man dashes forth past the crowd axe in hand, battling the flames and pulling the child from the ash and rubble in time to save their life.

Rangers who hail from the Fireman's Conclave have adapted techniques to deal with one of the most dangerous forces in nature and specialize in teamwork and rescues.

Conclave Spells

Starting at 3rd level, you learn an additional spell when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Fireman's Spells table. The spell counts as a ranger spell for you, but it doesn't count against the number of ranger spells you know.
