Stone Heart
Your blood comes from a steadfast lineage, touched by the elemental forces of the earth itself. Be it the blood of ancient dwarves first formed from stone or from a dao lineage from another plane, your blood runs thicker and your heart beats more steady than others. While particularly common among the genasi and the dwarves, these sorcerers can appear in any bloodline with ancient roots.
Blessed with natural resilience and command over the stones on which they stand, most of these sorcerers are solid and deliberate in both action and thought, slow to act, but once set on a course they become stubborn and immovable from their chosen path.

Steadfast Proficiencies
At 1st level, you gain proficiency with shields, simple weapons, and martial weapons.
Stone Aegis
When you choose this Origin at 1st level, your form begins to harden, giving you considerable toughness and durability. As a bonus action, you can summon a rocky aegis that lasts for 1 minute, or until you use this ability again. This aegis is a visible defensive aura, though it's appearance may vary.
While you are surrounded by the aegis, damage taken is you can reduced by your Proficiency bonus.
Stacking Damage Reduction
The following rule is a recommended rule for multiple sources of damage reduction: If you have multiple sources of damage reduction, any bonus after the highest is halved.
Skin of the Earth
Additionally, your skin is as tough as
stone, sometimes even bearing rocky
protrusions or rock-like texture. When
unarmored, your durable form grants
you an AC equals 10 + your Constitution
modifier + your Strength or Charisma
modifier (your choice).
Encompassing Aegis
Starting at 6th level, when you activate your
Stone Aegis, you can expend 1 sorcery point
to target an additional allied creature within
60 feet. When you do so, for the duration
of that aegis, both you and the target
creature gain the benefits of the aegis.
Reverberation
Additionally at 6th level, when a creature protected by your aegis is struck, the absorbed impact is stored until the end of your next turn. The next melee attack you make gains advantage, and if it hits it deals an additional 1d6 damage. Your aegis can store 1 hit at a time (to a maximum of 1d6 damage).
Stonewalk
Starting at 14th level, you gain a burrowing speed of 15 feet, allowing you to travel through the earth. You can pass through soil and stone, but when you pass through stone you leave no hole behind you, becoming one with it and passing through. If you would end your turn inside of stone, you get pushed to where you entered the stone surface.
Strength of the Earth
Starting at 18th level, you can draw strength from the earth. Your Strength ability score becomes equal to your Charisma ability score or your Charisma ability score becomes equal to your Strength ability score (whichever is higher). If your replacement score was higher than 15, your Constitution ability score is increased by 1 for each point over 15 it was (to a maximum of 20).
Additionally, your aegis can be extended to additional targets, expending 1 sorcerery point per target, up to a number of targets equal to your Charisma modifier. Your aegis can store additional hits, increasing the damage of your next attack by an additional 1d6, to a maximum of 3 hits (dealing 3d6 additional damage on your melee attack roll before the end of your next turn).

If they cannot move 5 feet out of the radius of the spell, they automatically fail the saving throw.

Creatures that fail the saving throw take 6d10 bludgeoning damage from the fall and crushing. The creature is buried in 10 feet of rubble, and creatures without a burrowing speed require 25 feet of movement to extract themselves from the loose rubble to return to where they failed the saving throw.

If you do so, you are ejected to the nearest unoccupied space, this spell ends, and you are stunned until the end of your next turn.
- You can use your action to call spikes of stone to raise from the ground. All creatures of your choice within 15 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw.

Stone Pillar
2nd-level transmutation
- Classes: Druid, Sorcerer, Wizard
- Casting Time: 1 action
- Range: 60 feet
- Components: V, S
- Duration: Instantaneous
You cause a pillar of stone to rise from the ground in a space you can see. The pillar of stone has a diameter of 5 feet and raises 30 feet into the air. The ground where a pillar appears must be wide enough for its diameter, and you can target the ground under a creature if that creature is Medium or smaller.
If a pillar is created under a creature, that creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be lifted by the pillar. A creature can choose to fail the save. The pillar does not rise fast enough to do damage, if it is prevented from reaching its full height, a creature on top of it is restrained, pinched between the pillar and the obstacle. The restrained creature can use an action to make a Strength or Dexterity check (the creature’s choice) against your spell save DC. On a success, the creature is no longer restrained and must either move off the pillar or fall off it.
The pillar has AC 15 and 40 hit points. When reduced to 0 hit points, a pillar crumbles into rubble, which creates an area of difficult terrain with a 10-foot radius that lasts until the rubble is cleared. Each 5-foot-diameter portion of the area requires at least 1 minute to clear by hand.
