Path of the Spirit Caller

___________________________________
Subclass Path of the Spirit Caller

Barbarians of the Green Folk of Maztica are trained from an early age to recognize and revere the spirit world. As they develop skill and experience, the spirit world comes to their aid. Feywild magic is the spirit magic utilized by the creatures of the Feywild.

Unlike Arcane magic, Feywild magic does not rely on one’s own soul so much as one’s connection with the natural world. Masters of the Feywild hear the call of the spirits and heed them, and in return are granted power from the spirits in a symbiotic relationship.

Spirit-Calling (also sometimes referred to as “evocation”) is the act of calling upon the spirits. Those who can call upon the spirits are capable of great feats such as creating a wave of water from a spring, or calling forth flame spirits to burn away an enemy.

 

___________________________________

Path of the Chainsmith

___________________________________
Subclass Path of the Chainsmith

A notable Chainsmith is Angrath, a minotaur pirate who was trapped on Ixalan. Unable to return home to see his family, he channeled his rage and blacksmithing prowess to fight to find a way home – by whatever means necessary.

___________________________________
Strike While The Iron is Hot (Tier 1)

Your blacksmithing expertise grants you an insight into the weak points of your foe’s armor, and a knack for knowing how to exploit them.

Whenever you successfully attack a creature that is wearing nonnatural and nonmagical armor, the damage  reduces that creature’s armor class by 1.

 

___________________________________
Molten Strike (Tier 1)

You gain a magical ability to super-heat your chain weapon while raging. Strikes count as magical and deal an additional 1d4 Fire Dmg.

 

___________________________________
Chain Rule (Tier 1)

You gain basic telekinetic control of your chain weapon, allowing to do more in combat than simply dealing damage. While raging, you may make a special chain wrap attack as an action. Make an attack roll with a chain you are wielding. If this attack hits, you may choose one of the chain attack affects. You may use this ability a number times daily equal to your proficiency bonus.

Disarm: Make an opposed Strength check with the target. On a success, the target drops one weapon it is holding. The dropped weapon is pulled 2d6 feet away from target.

Grapple: Make an opposed Strength check with the target. On a success, the target is grappled, but may still move towards you.

Throttle: If the target is within 5 feet of you, you may make an opposed Strength check with the target, at disadvantage. On a success, the target is grappled, and is suffocating for the duration of the grapple. The grapple ends if the target breaks free or if you make an attack action.

Trip: Make an opposed Strength check with the target. On a success, the target falls prone, and is dragged 5 feet towards you.

Runechild – Origin

___________________________________
Runechild

The mysterious weave and flow of magic is feared by many folk across the realms. But while some spellcasters must study the essence and nature of magic in the hope of learning to harness it, sorcerers possess an innate talent to sculpt and wield the errant strands of power that shape the world. For some sorcerers, the body becomes a conduit for this power, which is collected and stored in the form of natural runes—and so born is the Runechild.

 

The talents of a Runechild are rare, and sorcerers with this origin are sought after for study by mages and scholars alike, driven by a prevalent belief that the secrets of their runes can help understand the mysteries of magic. Others sometimes seek to enslave Runechild sorcerers, using their bodies as tortured spell batteries for diabolic pursuits. Runechild sorcerers were subjugated throughout the ages, and many of their contemporaries now search for ways to hide their essence—a task that isn’t easy given the revealing nature of their gifts.

___________________________________
Essence Runes  (Tier 1)

Your body begins to express your innate magic as runes traced out across your skin. You start with 1 essence rune, and gain an additional rune whenever you gain a level in Sorcerer. These runes manifest anywhere on your body, though the first usually manifests on the forehead. Your essence runes remain invisible when inert.

 

Spend 1 or more Sorcery Points (Max equal to proficiency bonus) as a Bonus Action to charge an equal number of Runes with any known spell or cantrip.

 

At the start of your next turn a single charged Rune can be expended as a Bonus Action without using a Spell Slot. If more than one Rune was charged, they can be expended, one at a time, during subsequent turns as Bonus Actions.

 

___________________________________

Runic Magic (Tier 1)

Whenever you gain a sorcerer level, you can add one additional spell to your known spells list but they must be an abjuration or a transmutation spell within your Spell Casting Levels.

 

Alternatively, you can add one additional Cantrip from any school.

 

___________________________________
Glyph of Aegis (Tier 1)

You can release the stored arcane power within your runes to absorb or deflect threatening attacks. Whenever you take damage, you can expend any number of charged runes as a Reaction. Roll a number of d6s equal to the number of runes you expended, and reduce the damage by the total.

You can touch a creature as an action and expend a number of charged runes equal to your proficiency bonus to transfer your Glyph of Aegis to it. The next time that creature takes damage within the next hour, it rolls 1d6 per charged rune spent and reduces the damage by the total.

Your Glyph of Aegis die becomes a d8 at Tier 2.

The Tiers of Play

I have chosen to use 5 tiers of play (names subject to change). Various things will use Tier levels as a matrix. Magical items, for example, may start to behave differently once a new tier is reached.

As described in the DMG, the tiers of play are as follows


Lissewin’s Liniment Tin

___________________________________
Item Lissewin’s Liniment Tin

Type Wonderous Item
Rarity Uncommon
Attune? No
Prereqs None

 

___________________________________
Item Description
:
This dinged-up, rusted and seemingly useless pocket tin holds one dose of greater healing ointment. (4d4 +4 HP Regained)

To use, simply smear the ointment on the skin of the injured person and HP is regained on contact.

If the ointment is replaced with a substance such as tar, oil or fat or even congealed blood, and is left in the tin overnight, at dawn the substance is become one dose of greater healing ointment.

 

However… There is a downside. If the substance is tainted with necrotic energy, the result of using the enchanted ointment will be reversed. (-4d4+4 HP)

___________________________________
Item Levels
:
If the substance is derived from a magical source, such as Dragons Blood, [define this bettter] the efficacy of the ointment is increased to Superior Healing Ointment. It may also have other benefits according to this table.

 

D20 Result
1-7 Superior Healing Ointment (8d4+8 hp)
8-15 8d4+8 hp + 4d4 +4 Temp HP
16+ 8d4+8 hp + 4d4 +4 Temp HP & Death Ward

The Path of the Frostborn

___________________________________
The Path of the Frostborn

These Barbarians know few things, but what they do know is the rage and anger that winter brings. These warriors know how to take the fury of winter and transform it into a potent reservoir of power. While many of them come from the northern parts of the world, these barbarians come from anywhere where the winters are bitter and devastating, and because of this they often act as guides and helpers to those navigating the frigid north.

___________________________________
Fury of Frost (Level 3)

When you enter rage, you tap into the unbridled fury of winter and explode outward in freezing energy. While you are raging you are resistant to cold damage and all attacks done with melee attack do an extra 1d6 of cold damage.

This cold damage Increases at higher levels in this class, with 2d6 at level 6, 3d6 at level 10, and 4d6 at level 14.

___________________________________
Frostvine Protector (Level 3)

As a bonus action, you create a protective layer of thin and wispy ice vines that shroud your body for the duration of 1 minute. Gain +1 AC and temporary hit points equal to your Constitution Modifier * Proficiency Bonus.

___________________________________
___________________________________

Heart Of The Blizzard (Level 6)

You are able to focus the cold and shredding winds of a blizzard into your strikes. When you make a melee weapon attack, you can infuse it with the power of a blizzard, if the attack hits when you use this ability, the target must make a strength saving throw equal to your 8 + your proficiency modifier + your constitution modifier. On a fail, the creature is thrown backward 15 feet in a gust of freezing wind and they are knocked prone.

This ability can be used a number of times daily equal to your Proficiency Bonus

___________________________________
___________________________________

Frostvine Aggressor (Level 10)

Upon any successful Melee attack, you can choose to inflict Frostvine Aggressor upon the target. Target must make a Constitution saving throw (Ki save DC). On fail, vines of ice spread around their body, restraining their movement and inflicting 2d8 Cold Damage. At the end of the targets each turn they can attempt another save. On fail, another 2d8 Cold Damage is inflicted. The effect ends after 3 rounds.

___________________________________
___________________________________

Frostbite Barrage (Level 14)

You are able to empower yourself with the fury and anger of winter and send a barrage of attacks at your opponents. As an action you roll 1d4, you attack extra times equal to the roll. If all the rolls hit, the target must make a constitution saving throw equal to 8 + your proficiency modifier + your strength modifier, if they fail they take 5d6 cold damage and their movement speed is halved until the end of your next turn.

You can use this ability once per long rest.
