Revision as of 18:53, 1 October 2026
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. However, the druid cannot cast spells while wildshaped. 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.

| Artillery | 6 | +2 AB, +6 Damage |

| 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 10m. 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. Targeting a point requires that you be under the effects of a Rune (such as from the Elemental Weapon spell), which defines its damage type. 6 points are then consumed to create an Invocation. This Invocation begins with 6 charges, expending 1 charge every 3 seconds to strike the nearest enemy creature with 1d6 damage (Fortitude half).

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. |

| Class Level | Feature | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | Form Mastery |
Your Wildshape now functions differently from the typical druid's in several ways:
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.

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 2 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.

Artillery: You generate twice the number of spines. |
