Some of your class features require your target to make a saving throw to resist the effect. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:
DC: 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier.
CLASS FEATURES
As a earthbinder, you gain the following class features.
STONE CALLER
Earthbinders can sense and manipulate hidden passageways linking the material plane and the elemental plane of earth, able to draw objects through this conduit.
As an action, you can call forth an elemental stone and propel it with great force. The stone hits a creature of your choice that you can see within 120 feet, dealing 1d4 + 1 bludgeoning damage to its target.
The number of stones you can call increases to two at 5th level, three at 9th, four at 13th, and to a maximum of five at 17th level. When calling multiple stones, they all strike simultaneously, and can be directed to hit a single creature or several.
EARTHEN MURMURS
The earth is known to whisper its secrets to those who follow this craft, imparting knowledge and prescience. You can speak primordial and your passive perception increases by +5 whenever you are underground or in an area completely made of stone or metals.
In addition, whenever you make a Wisdom (Perception) or Intelligence (Investigation) check related to finding a secret doors or hidden passageways that are made of stone or located in the earth, you are considered proficient in the Perception or Investigation skill and have advantage on the roll.
MASTER JEWELER
Earthbinders are skilled jewelers, having an innate mastery when working with gemstones and precious metals. You gain proficiency with jeweler’s tools. When using downtime to create jewelry, for every day of downtime you spend crafting, you can craft one or more items with a total market value not exceeding 50 gp. You must expend raw materials worth half the total market value.
In addition, you gain the ability to polish gemstones that you find or purchase and increase their value. Polishing a gemstone requires jeweler’s tools, 2 hours of time, and a proficiency check of DC 10 + 2 for each 10% of increased value (maximum of 100%) check. Failure means the gemstone is damaged in some way and cannot be improved (but does not destroy the gemstone or decrease its value). __
MINERAL HARVEST
The wealth of the elemental plane of earth is available to those that know how to call for it. When you reach 2nd level, you can summon gemstones from the elemental plane of earth during a long rest, the stones forming upon the ground in your immediate vicinity. This summong takes 2 hours and is considered a light activity.
The value and quantity of gemstones conjured are determined by your earthbinder level as shown on the Mineral Harvest table. You gain the gemstones for each level tier that you qualify for.
Gems created through this feature are considered “empowered”, a requirement for glyptic runes, until the start of your next long rest at which point they become a common precious stones.
The specific type of gemstone summoned can be determined as needed by referencing the gemstones tables (DMG, p 134).
Mineral Harvest Table
| Earthbinder level | Value (gp) of gemstone | Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| 1-4 | 10 | d6 |
| 5-8 | 50 | d4 |
| 9-12 | 100 | d3 |
| 13-16 | 500 | d2 |
| 17-20 | 1000 | 1d2 |
GLYPTIC RUNES
Beginning at 2nd level, Earthbinders learn to manipulate the inherent binding between empowered precious stones and the plane of earth by inscribing special symbols known as glyptic runes. These runes serve to unlock the inherent power contained in these gemstones.
As an action, you can scribe a glyptic rune on a gem that is empowered (typically created through the Mineral Harvest feature). This process channels energy from the elemental plane of earth and powers a spell-like effect that immediately manifests from the gem. Effects created through the activation of a glyptic rune do not require any components but if the effect normally requires concentration, you must both maintain possession of the gem and concentrate to sustain the gem’s spell.
A gemstone must be of the appropriate value for the tier of rune you’re inscribing and you must be in possession of jeweler’s tools. Each gem can only have a single glyptic rune of a tier no higher than the value of the gem allows (as shown in the Earthbinder Glyptic Runes section).
Simple glyptic runes can be scribed on any stone – regardless of whether it’s a gemstone or empowered.
Gems inscribed in this manner are destroyed upon use.
RUNES KNOWN
At 2nd level, you know two simple and one minor glyptic runes of your choice from the glyptic runes spell list.
The Runes Known column of the Earthbinder table shows when you learn more runes of your choice. A rune you choose must be of a tier no higher than what’s shown in the table's Max Rune column for your level. When you reach 11th level, for example, you learn a new rune, which can be minor, lesser or greater.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the runes you know and replace it with another rune from the glyptic runes spell list, which also must be of a tier for which you qualify.
GLYPTIC RUNE ABILITY
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your glyptic runes, so you use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a glyptic rune you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Glyptic rune save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Glyptic rune attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
TELLURIAN ALLEGIANCE
When you reach 3rd level, you deepen your connection to the plane of earth, joining with one of the elemental courts. This allegiance further strengthens your connection to the elemental plane and grants you additional power. Choose from the Crystal Court, the Granite Court, or the Iron Court, all detailed at the end of the class description.
Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 15th, and 20th level.
ABILITY SCORE IMPROVEMENT
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, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1.
As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.
AWAKENED STONE
At 5th level, an Earthbinder can summon a rare awakened stone, a strange denizen of the plane of earth that is aware and has unusual powers while on the material plane. To acquire an awakened stone, you must spend 8 hours focusing and carefully constructing a passageway to the elemental plane of earth. At the end of this time, an awakened stone of your choice appears in a spot within 5 feet of you. The stone appears as a small rock and provide benefits based on your as shown on the Awakened Stones table. You only benefit from your chosen stone’s benefits if the stone is on your person.
Awakened stones are typically 4” – 6” in diameter, weighing less than 5 pounds. Though normally rough (natural) in appearance, it is not unheard of that the stone appears in a worked form (e.g. geometric shape, carved with runes, etc.).
Awakened stones are unable to move on their own and behave as inanimate objects when it comes to damage and spell effects (AC 17; 10 hit points; immune to necrotic, poison, psychic; resistance to piercing, slashing, cold, fire, radiant, thunder). When an awakened stone is reduced to 0 hit points, it is destroyed.
An awakened stone acts when you act and always obeys your commands. In combat, it uses your initiative. An awakened stone can’t attack or take any other actions except to communicate unless otherwise noted. An awakened stone has blindsight in a 5 foot radius and can communicate emotions and very generic impressions telepathically to you if you are within 100 feet
As an action, you can dismiss your stone which is sent back to the elemental plane of earth. You can’t have more than one awakened stone at a time. If you attempt to summon an awakened stone while you already have one, your original awakened stone is dismissed and you gain a new one.
Earthbinders, through some oddity of the familiar bond forged with the awakened stone, often take on subtle physical characteristics of their stone. This can manifest as a flesh tone that appears stone-like, matching their chosen stone or – somewhat less commonly – having their eyes change to appear as orbs made of the same material as the awakened stone.
When you reach 11th level, your awakened Stone becomes fully aware and is considered enlightened – providing the full benefits for its stone type. Any features or spells cast by the enlightened stone have a DC of 12 + your proficiency bonus. Enlightened stones are able to communicate complex thoughts telepathically to any creature within 100 feet and have blindsight in a 15 foot radius.
An enlightened stone gains a base movement speed of 5 feet. An enlightened stone is always considered to have a Dexterity (Stealth) roll of 20 in regards to detecting this movement. This does not apply to seeing the stone itself, only in determining whether it actually moved or not.
In addition, as an action, you can see sense through an enlightened stone until the start of your next turn, gaining the benefits of any special senses that the stone has. During this time, you are deaf and blind with regard to your own senses.
Finally, an enlightened stone can be inscribed with a glyptic rune. The rune must have a range of personal and can be activated as a bonus action. As long as the stone is on your person, you do not have to concentrate to maintain this effect and any duration is doubled.
EARTHEN ALIMENT
Upon reaching 6th level, Earthbinders are able to convert the energy contained within stone and soil into sustenance, needing only water to survive. As long as you are in contact with the earth (including worked stone and metal), you do not require food and do not gain exhaustion levels from lack of food. When you are not in contact with the earth (for example, standing upon a wooden floor), you need food as normal.
ELEMENTAL VOIDANCE
By drawing upon the elemental plane of earth through a gem stone, earthbinders can bolster their resistance to most elemental effects and damage. Beginning at 8th level you can use your reaction to draw upon a gemstone that you have in your possession. Until the start of your next turn, you gain resistance to one damage type of your choice: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder.
In addition, for each 100 gp of value of the gem, you reduce the chosen damage that you do receive by 2.
A gemstone used in this manner is destroyed after use.
VITREOUS SCRYING
The earth sees all that is within or upon it. By using their special connection to the powers of elemental earth, an earthbinder may use a piece of crystal, obsidian, quartz, or similar stone worth at least 100 gp to perform scrying. More valuable stones provide access to additional effects. When you reach 9th level you can, by performing a ritual that takes one hour, you can use this stone to mimic one of the following spell effects selected at the time of use.
- locate animals or plants (100 gp)
- locate object (100 gp)
- clairvoyance (500 gp)
- locate creature (1000 gp)
- scrying (5000 gp)
- contact other plane [elemental earth only] (5000 gp)
The earthbinder does not have to provide any components (aside from the stone itself) to cast the spell. As required, you treat your earthbinder level as your caster level and if the effect requires allows for a save, you use your glyptic rune save DC.
Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again.
The stone used to perform the scrying is not damaged using this feature.
EARTHSHAPER
By virtue of their close alliance with the elemental plane of earth, earthbinders are gifted a large degree of control over earth, stone, and metals. When you reach 10th level, you can use an action to alter the formation of the earth itself.
Choose an area of terrain no larger than 40 feet on a side within range. You can reshape dirt, sand, or clay in the area in any manner you choose for up to 1 hour as long as you maintain control (as if concentrating on a spell).
You can raise or lower the area’s elevation, create or fill in a trench, erect or flatten a wall, or form a pillar. The extent of any such changes can’t exceed half the area’s largest dimension. So, if you affect a 40-foot square, you can create a pillar up to 20 feet high, raise or lower the square’s elevation by up to 20 feet, dig a trench up to 20 feet deep, and so on. It takes 10 minutes for these changes to complete.
At the end of every 10 minutes you spend concentrating, you can choose a new area of terrain to affect. Because the terrain’s transformation occurs slowly, creatures in the area can’t usually be trapped or injured by the ground’s movement.
This effect can even manipulate natural stone or stone construction, reshaping them to your will. Rocks and structures left alone shift to accommodate the new terrain. If the way you shape the terrain would make a structure unstable, it might collapse.
This effect doesn’t directly affect plant growth. The moved earth carries any plants along with it.
Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or a long rest before you can use it again.
GLYPTIC BINDING
Upon reaching 11th level, an earthbinder is able to create a special set of glyptic runes on a gem that allows the spell effect to be used by others or can even self-sustain its effect, eliminating the need for concentration.
As a bonus action after inscribing a glyptic rune, you can place a binding symbol on gem that you have created. Unlike other gems with a glyptic rune, this gem does not immediately activate its spell-like power.
This binding can take one of two forms:
- Bound to an individual of your choice, chosen at the time of creation, who can activate the gem as an action
- Bound to itself, creating a self-powering loop and removing any requirement for concentration.
Once you use this feature, you must complete a short or long rest before you can use it again.
EMPOWER STONE
Earthbinders can infuse the raw primal power of elemental earth into the gems and rocks of the material plane, creating stones that are suitable for glyptic runes.
Starting at 13th level, as an action, you can touch a precious stone and forge a link to the elemental plane of earth. The stone is considered empowered, as if summoned through Mineral Harvest.
Once you use this feature, you must complete a long rest before you can use it again.
LEGENDARY JEWELER
With their deep understanding of precious metals and gems, earthbinders that practice the lapidary arts reach a level of skill that transcends the works of most others. When you reach 14th level, you are able to craft jewelry or carve gems such that they gain magical properties and can grant continuous benefits.
Over the course of a long rest, you can craft one of the following items provided you are able to provide a gem of the appropriate value. This item does not function for any person other than yourself and, due to the stresses of channeling the magic energies, crumbles to dust at the start of your next long rest.
- An ioun stone, rare = 500gp, very rare = 1000gp; legendary = 5000gp
- Gem of brightness (2d4 charges), 500gp
- sending stones, 500gp
- Any magical ring that is uncommon (500gp, 1d6 charges) or rare (1000gp, 1d4 charges)
Finally, when using your Master Jeweler feature, you increase the value of the gemstone by 50% with each check to a maximum of 1000% of its base value.
TELLURIAN ALLY
An earthbinder’s allegiance to a tellurian court allows them to summon powerful allies, creatures born of the very rock and earth itself, to aid them in their endeavors. When you reach 17th level, you can spend 1 minute forging a gateway between an appropriate gem and the elemental plane of earth. Upon completion of this gateway you call forth an earth elemental servant or servants that appear in unoccupied spaces that you can see within 60 feet.
You choose one the following options for what appears based upon the value of gemstone used to create the gateway:
- One elemental of CR 5 or lower (1000gp)
- One elemental of CR 2 or lower (500gp)
- Two elementals of challenge rating 1 or lower (100gp)
- Four elementals of challenge rating 1/2 or lower (50gp)
- Eight elementals of challenge rating 1/4 or lower. (10gp)
This elemental serves your cause for 1 hour and is friendly to you and your companions for the duration. Roll initiative for the elemental, which has its own turns. It obeys any verbal commands that you issue to it (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any commands to the elemental, it defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise takes no actions.
A summoned elemental returns to the elemental plane on earth at the end of its service. If a summoned elemental is destroyed, the gem used to summon it is also destroyed.
The DM has the elemental’s statistics.
Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again.
EARTHBREAKER
By 18th level your connection the elemental plane of earth is so strong that the earth itself bows to your bidding. You can cast the earthquake spell once per long rest with no components. Any damage done to structures or inanimate objects is double that of the normal spell.
