Druid

Druids draw Power from the primal energy lingering in all living things. They possess shapeshifting abilities that allow them to adapt to various combat scenarios and a diverse selection of natural spells from their unique spellbook. Their Archetypes allow them to focus on furthering their shapeshifting abilities, a pet/summoner based playstyle, or an offensive elemental spellcaster.

Maximizing Strength or Dexterity is recommended if you want to focus on attacking with weapons and using Maneuvers like Knockdown. It also provides bonuses to your Fortitude or Reflex save.

Maximizing Wisdom is recommended if you want to focus on your spellcasting ability (Offensive DCs, Spells/day, Metamagic Pool). Wisdom also contributes to your Will save.

Dexterity allows you to maximize Armor Class from light/medium armors and improves your Reflex save.

Constitution increases your survivability in raw hit points and contributing to your Fortitude save.

Intelligence contributes to your maximum Maneuver pool and Reflex save.

Charisma contributes to your Will save and support Maneuvers such as "Commander Strike".

Druid Core Mechanics

Metamagic: Conversion

The character receives the Conversion feat for free.

Metamagic: Polarized Spell

The character receives the Polarized Spell feat for free.

Wildshape

A druid can transform themselves into beasts of the wild. By means of a successful Nature check, the druid receives a totem of that form. Using this totem consumes 2 Wildshape and transforms the druid into that animal, gaining an amount of temporary hitpoints per druid level and properties relevant to the animal's role as listed below. Using the Wildshape feat itself will instantly transform the druid into whatever last shape they used.

Using the totem again cancels the transformation, as does using the Wildshape feat, or another totem to take a new form. Losing the temporary hitpoints granted by the Wildshape will also revert the druid to their true form.

This ability may be used once per rest per Druid level plus Wisdom modifier, and regains 1 use upon slaying 5 non-minion foes.

The Druid may also convert Wildshape into Metamagic via their Wildshape menu, consuming 2 Wildshape to generate Metamagic equal to their Wisdom modifier.

Role	Temp HP per Level	Additional
Brute	10	+5 Damage
Skirmisher	8	+2d6 Sneak Attack
Lurker	6	+3d6 Sneak Attack
Controller	6	+2 Spell and Maneuver DCs
Soldier	12	+25% Multiplicative Damage Immunity to all damage
Artillery	6	+2 AB, +6 Damage

The character is immune to the Entangle, Grease, Spike Growth, Vine Mine, and Web spells.

Venom Immunity

Resist Nature's Lure

This feat grants a +2 insight bonus on saving throws against fear spells and effects.

The Druid may use the club, dagger, quarterstaff, shortbow, sickle, sling, spear, and throwing dagger.

Mystic Weapons

The character may use the casting gloves, mystic staff, and tome.

Archetypes

Invoker

"The land answers my call."

Some Druids directly invoke natural elemental spirits to aid them.

Class Level	Feature	Details
4	Invocation	You gain a new resource pool, Invocation, with a capacity of [10 + Wisdom Modifier]. This gains points equal to a harmful spell's level upon casting. You may use this feat to target yourself, or a point within 20m. Targeting yourself, or activating the feat again while the targeting cursor is up, consumes a use of Wildshape, granting Invocation points equal to your Wisdom modifier. Any points beyond your Invocation capacity are granted as Metamagic instead. Targeting a point consumes 8 points to create an Invocation. Its damage type is Fire, or that of your active Rune (such as from the Elemental Weapon spell), and Polarized Spell may change it as it does for a spell. This Invocation begins with 6 charges, expending 1 charge every 3 seconds to strike the nearest enemy creature with 1d6 damage (Fortitude half). If the Invocation is within any of your persistent area of effect spells, it strikes any creatures within these. Invocation damage counts as Spells (Persistent AoE) for damage bonuses, even when it strikes a single creature. You may only create one Invocation at a time. Your Invocations benefit from any applicable Metamagic you know for free, and any increases to your spell DC. Upon expiry, an Invocation refunds 5 spell levels' worth of harmful spells to you. In addition, your cost to convert Wildshape to Metamagic is reduced to 1.
7	Leylines	Your Invocation damage increases to 2d4, your base capacity to 15, and you may now place a second. This draws a Leyline between that Invocation and any others you have placed within 10m. Creatures who pass through this Leyline are slowed by 90% for 3 rounds.
10	Convergence	Your Invocation damage increases to 2d6, your base capacity to 20, and you may now place a third. Any creatures within the triangle formed by three invocations will be stunned for one round every round if they fail their will save. The DC is equal to that of your Invocations.

Shifter

"Show my face? Which one?"

Capable of taking the form of almost any creature, the Shifter wields them almost as proficiently as the original, and often moreso.

Class Level	Feature	Details
4	Form Mastery	Your Wildshape now functions differently from the typical druid's in several ways: You gain 1 Wildshape for each non-minion slain. It now costs 10 Wildshape for you to convert Wildshape to Metamagic. Your Wildshape capacity is now equal to 10 + twice your Wisdom Modifier. You may learn a greater variety of forms, including vermin, beasts, and magical beasts. Your transformations cannot be dispelled. You do not consume Wildshape to change form; however, changing form no longer grants you temporary hitpoints (THP). You no longer revert to humanoid form when resting. You receive a new feat, Primal Surge, which you may use once per round to gain the THP you would otherwise gain from the form, consuming 5 uses of Wildshape. This also grants Regeneration, restoring hitpoints equal to your Druid level every 3 seconds, up to the total amount of THP gained. The Form Mastery feat may be activated to consume 3 uses of Wildshape in order to gain the following Form Mastery benefits for 1 minute, dependent upon your current form's role. If you change form, you receive the relevant Form Mastery benefits for that form instead. Brute You receive +1 bonus attack per round, and a +5 physical damage bonus to attacks. Skirmisher You receive +1 bonus attack per round, and +2d6 Sneak Attack. Lurker You gain +3d6 Sneak Attack. You may reactivate the feat to vanish from sight, disengaging from your attack schedule and entering stealth. Whilst this Form Mastery bonus is active, reactivating Form Mastery causes you to vanish from sight once again, at a cost of 1 Wildshape per use. You cannot perform this action after exiting stealth mode until one round has passed. Controller For one minute, upon striking a target, they must succeed at a save versus your cantrip DC or suffer the effects of Blindness for 1 round. Applicable Metamagic you know is applied without cost. Soldier You receive 25% multiplicative physical damage immunity. Artillery Once per round for one minute, you automatically fire a volley of spines at targets within 10m of your attack target. If you have no current attack target, the nearest enemy is selected instead. You create one spine per Druid level, with each inflicting 4 physical damage. These are split evenly amongst the available targets, with priority given to your target and those nearest it.
4	Primal Surge	You may use this feat once per round to gain the THP you would otherwise gain from Wildshaping into the current form's role, consuming 5 uses of Wildshape. This also grants Regeneration, restoring hitpoints equal to your Druid level every 3 seconds, up to the total amount of THP gained.
7	Second Shift	One round after activating Form Mastery, you receive the Second Shift effect, further enhancing your Form Mastery benefits. Changing forms resets the Second Shift effect, reactivating after 1 round has passed in the new form. Brute You receive an additional +1 bonus attack per round, and a further +5 physical damage bonus to attacks. Skirmisher You receive an additional +1 bonus attack per round, and a further +2d6 Sneak Attack. Lurker You receive +1 bonus attack per round, and a further +3d6 Sneak Attack. Controller In addition to the on-hit blind effect, you now also afflict your attacked targets with the Paralyze effect for 1 round, should they fail a Will saving throw versus your cantrip DC. Applicable Metamagic you know is applied without cost. Soldier You may reactivate Form Mastery to expend 2 Wildshape and receive a Damage Resistance (DR) effect to all damage with a Threshold equal to 5 + your Druid Level, with Absorption of 10 per Druid Level. Any Absorption remaining when the effect expires (either due to expiring duration or changing form) is saved and applied to the Absorption of the next DR effect created this way. Artillery You generate twice the number of spines.
10	Peak Performance	The base bonuses you receive from Wildshape roles are now doubled.

Wildspeaker

"Lend your ear to the wilds."

Druids can partner directly with the wilds, listening to their pleas and receiving its boons as a result.

Class Level	Feature	Details
4	First Words	Your bond with the wilds has granted you the benefit of a natural companion. Use this feat on yourself to choose your companion type (default wolf). This companion has the statistics of an Elite-rated creature of its given role. If you also possess the Animal Companion feature from the Ranger Beastmaster, your Druid and Ranger levels stack when determining the companion's Threat Level. You may summon your companion for free once per rest. You may also target your companion with this feat to restore hitpoints equal to its maximum hit points, expending 3 Wildshape. Any excess is granted as temporary hitpoints lasting one minute, to a maximum of half their hit point total. Should your companion perish, it may be resummoned with this feat for the cost of 3 Wildshape. Your companion also possesses your Woodland Stride class feature. Upon casting a harmful damage spell, for 3 rounds your companion receives a damage bonus equal to your Druid class level plus the spell's level, of the spell's damage type.
7	Growing Bond	Your companion receives a stack of the following bonuses for every round they remain within one of your persistent areas of effect (AoE) (such as Grease, Web, etc), to a maximum of 3 stacks. These bonuses are retained as long as they remain within the AoE. Should the companion leave your AoEs, these stacks will be lost at a rate of 1 every 3 rounds. Bear +3 Physical Damage Boar +20% Physical Damage Immunity (Multiplicative) Wolf +2 Physical Damage / +10% Movespeed Hawk +2d6 Radiant damage on Sneak Attack Lynx +2d6 Radiant damage on Sneak Attack
10	Rite of Passage	When your companion's Growing Bond stacks reach their maximum, their rating upgrades to Solo. The companion's rating reverts to Elite if the stacks should decay below the maximum.
