Complexity

Complexity is a measure of how complex the subclass mechanics are, or how difficult the subclass is to be played efficiently. Complexity is rated on a 5-star scale, with most subclasses achieving a 2-star rating.


A 1-star rating means that the subclass should be no more complex to play than a samurai fighter or hunter conclave ranger.


A 2-star rating introduces a few more specialized mechanics that are still relatively simple to understand, or are simple subclasses on a complex class. Examples include most cleric or wizard subclasses and the Battlemaster fighter.


A 3-star rating means that the subclass requires a decent understanding of the game's mechanics. Examples include College of Glamour bard or Circle of the Moon druid


A 4-star rating introduces minions, complex resource systems, or spellcasting to a class that doesn't have it. Examples include the Beastmaster ranger and the Eldritch Knight fighter.


A 5-star rating introduces an additional resource system on top of a class with two resource systems. This is more complex than any existing subclass. The College of the Avatar requires balancing psionic dice, bardic inspiration, and spells, with some ability to switch between them.

Barbarian

Path of the Hulking Brute

Barbarians following the Path of the Hulking Brute are physically enlarged when they rage, their anger making them larger than life. Their size becomes a reflection of their emotional state.

The Path of the Hulking Brute is most often found among the largest humanoid races, as well as the smallest. The largest humanoid races enjoy growing increasingly massive, and the smallest humanoid races enjoy looking down on those who looked down on them before.

Massive Rage

3rd-level Path of the Hulking Brute feature


You visibly grow while enraged. While raging, you gain the "enlarge" effect of the enlarge/reduce spell for the duration of your rage.

Gigantism

6th-level Path of the Hulking Brute feature


You are big even when not raging. Your carrying capacity (including maximum load and maximum lift) is doubled, and you have advantage on Strength checks made to push, pull, lift, or break objects.

Shrinking Calm

10th-level Path of the Hulking Brute feature


You gain the ability to still your emotions and reduce your size. When you do so, you cast the enlarge/reduce spell on yourself to gain the "reduce" effect, without using a spell slot or material components. Constitution is your spellcasting ability for this spell.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Gargantuan Rage

14th-level Path of the Hulking Brute feature


You can choose to grow even further beyond. When you gain the "enlarge" effect of the enlarge/reduce spell while raging, you can choose to octuple your size if there is enough room to do so. If you do so, your size instead octuples in all dimensions and your weight is multiplied by 500. This growth increases your size by three categories -- from Medium to Gargantuan, for example. Until you are no longer under the effects of the enlarge/reduce spell, you gain 50 temporary hit points, and your weapons also grow to match your new size. While these weapons are enlarged, your attacks with them deal 2d6 extra damage instead of 1d4 extra damage. When your rage ends, you suffer one level of exhaustion.

Path of the Phoenix

The barbarians who follow the Path of the Phoenix often say they have been touched by the spark of the elder elemental in their past lives, or have had a life-altering near death experience. Barbarians who follow the Path of the Phoenix transform their rage into a white-hot fury that burns their foes but also threatens to consume them as well.

Rage of the Phoenix

3rd-level Path of the Phoenix feature


Your rages can burn with the magical flames of the phoenix. If you do so, you shed bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet. At the end of each of your turns while raging in this manner, you and each creature of your choice within 10 feet of you take fire damage equal to your proficiency bonus. This damage you take ignores resistance and immunity. All other creatures within 10 feet of you gain temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus instead of taking damage.

Cinderskin

6th-level Path of the Phoenix feature


You gain resistance to fire damage, and you don't suffer the effects of extreme heat. Moreover, you can touch a flammable object that isn't being worn or carried by anyone else and set it on fire.

Mantle of the Phoenix

10th-level Path of the Phoenix feature


You can channel the vigor and speed of the phoenix. As a bonus action, you regain hit points equal to your level, and until your turn ends, your movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.

Explosive Rebirth

14th-level Path of the Phoenix feature


Your burning rage fuels a burning rebirth. If you fall unconscious or die while you are raging, you explode in a fiery blaze. Your body disintegrates in a flash of fire and puff of smoke, leaving behind only equipment you were wearing or carrying. Each creature within 10 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC 8 + your Constitution bonus + your proficiency bonus), taking 8d6 fire damage on a failed save, and half as much on a successful one. At the start of your next turn, you reappear in the nearest unoccupied space with 1 hit point.

Once you use this feature, you cant use it again until you finish a long rest.

Path of the Tosser

Some barbarians hail from cultures that revere strength in all its forms. These tribes view lifting heavy objects to be impressive, but throwing those heavy objects as far as possible as the mark of a true warrior.

Barbarians who follow the path of the tosser may not all agree on what should be thrown, but they all agree that whatever is thrown should be thrown as hard and as fast as possible. They enter frenzies of precision where their thrown weapons are almost an extension of their limbs and their thrown weapons return to their hand almost as if the tossers of ages past were guiding the weapons.

Thrown Weapon Fighter

3rd-level Path of the Tosser feature


You are adept at drawing throwing weapons. You can draw a weapon that has the thrown property as part of the attack you make with the weapon.

Ballistic Rage

3rd-level Path of the Tosser feature


Your throwing weapons weapons feel like an extension of your limbs is while raging. When you throw a weapon while raging on your turn, you make a melee weapon attack with the weapon with a reach equal to the weapon's long range instead of making a ranged weapon attack. The weapon returns to your hand immediately after your attack.

Additionally, the first creature you hit on each of your turns with a thrown weapon attack is subjected to an additional effect depending on the damage type it deals.

Slashing. The attack deals additional damage equal to half your barbarian level. The next attack roll against that creature is made with advantage before the end of your next turn.

Piercing. The creature is pulled up to 15 feet straight towards you. If the creature ends this movement within 5 feet of you, you can attempt to grapple it as part of the same attack.

Bludgeoning. The creature is pushed up to 15 feet away from you. If the pushed creature comes into contact with a solid surface, such as a wall or floor, it falls prone if it is Large or smaller.

Throwing Style

6th-level Path of the Tosser feature


You gain one hard-earned benefit based on the style of weapon tossing you favor.

Pinpoint Precision. When you throw a weapon, the weapon's range is doubled. You also have advantage on Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) checks.

Raw Strength. Melee weapons without the heavy property have the thrown property with a normal range of 20 feet and a long range of 60 feet for you Your carrying capacity (including maximum load and maximum lift) is also doubled.

Near Miss

10th-level Path of the Tosser feature


Your near-misses are terrifying in their precision. If you miss a thrown weapon attack against a target that can see or hear you, you can use your reaction to force the target to make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, the target is frightened of you until the start of your next turn.

The DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier.

If the creature succeeds on its saving throw, you can’t use this feature on that creature again for 24 hours.

Weighty Throw

14th-level Path of the Tosser feature


Your thrown weapons gain additional properties depending on how heavy they are.

Light. While raging, your thrown weapon attacks with weapons with the light property score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20, and you roll two additional weapon dice when determining the extra damage for a critical hit.

Medium. While raging, your thrown weapon attacks with weapons without the light property have their range doubled, and they deal an additional 1d8 damage when they hit a creature.

Heavy. While raging, you can use an action to lift and toss an object that is large or medium and is no heavier than your carrying capacity. Make a thrown weapon attack with proficiency against a creature or object within 30 feet of you. On a hit, the object and what it strikes each take magical bludgeoning damage equal to 2d12 + your Strength score.

Path of the Wilder

Some people find strange and dangerous powers awaken within themselves. They might not know how to control them, leaving to widespread destruction when their emotional state becomes unhinged. Barbarians who follow the path of the Wilder possess psionic powers that mimic spellcasting when they are calm and become unfocused and chaotic when they are raging.

Psionic Power

3rd-level Path of the Wilder feature


You harbor a wellspring of psionic energy within yourself. This energy is represented by your Psionic Energy dice, which are each a d6. You have a number of these dice equal to twice your proficiency bonus, and they fuel various psionic powers you have, which are detailed below.

Some of your powers expend the Psionic Energy die they use, as specified in a power’s description, and you can’t use a power if it requires you to use a die when your dice are all expended. You regain all your expended Psionic Energy dice when you finish a long rest. In addition, as a bonus action, you can regain one expended Psionic Energy die, but you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

When you reach certain levels in this class, the size of your Psionic Energy dice increases: at 5th level (d8), 11th level (d10), and 17th level (d12).

The powers below use your Psionic Energy dice.

Overwhelming Force. While you are raging, you can expend one Psionic Energy die to increase your reach to 30 feet until the end of your next turn for the purposes of making a Strength check, such as grappling or shoving a creature or pushing, pulling, or breaking an object. You gain a bonus to the strength check equal to the roll.

Psy Retaliation. When you take damage from a creature within 10 feet of you while raging, you can expend one Psionic Energy die as a reaction and roll it. That creature must make a Wisdom saving throw, taking psychic damage equal to the roll plus your Charisma modifier on a failure, or half as much on a success.

Telekinetic Jump. When you rage, or as a bonus action while raging, you can expend 1 Psionic Energy die and roll it. You can then can jump a number of feet equal to five times the roll, without provoking opportunity attacks or taking falling damage from the jump. You can use this feature only if your speed is greater than 0,

Psionic Spells

3rd-level Path of the Wilder feature


You awaken the power of psionic spellcasting, which you can use when not raging. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting and the Spells Listing for the sorcerer spell list.

Cantrips

You learn two cantrips of your choice from the sorcerer spell list. You learn an additional sorcerer cantrip of your choice at 10th level.

Psionic Casting

You convert Psionic Energy dice into spell slots used to cast your spells, which are detailed below. To cast one of these spells, you must expend two or more Psionic Energy dice to create a spell slot, which you then immediately use to cast the spell. The Psionic Energy dice cost is shown in the Psionic Spells table.

For example, if you know the 1st-level spell burning hands and have 3 Psionic Energy dice at 5th level, you can expend 2 Psionic Energy dice to create a 1st level slot to cast the spell or 3 Psionic Energy dice to create a 2nd level spell slot to cast the spell.

Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher

You know two 1st-level sorcerer spells of your choice. You gain two additional spells at 6th, 10th, and 14th level. Each of these spells must be a sorcerer spell of your choice, and must be at or below the spell level shown in the Psionic Spells table.

Psionic Spells
Barbarian Levels Spell Slot Level Psionic Dice Cost
3-4 1st 2
5-8 2nd 3
9-12 3rd 4
13-16 4th 5
17-20 5th 6

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the sorcerer spells you know with another spell of your choice from the sorcerer spell list. The new spell must be of a level at or below the spell level shown in the Psionic Spells table.

Spellcasting Ability

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your sorcerer spells, since your spells are due to your innate psionic power. 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 sorcerer spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.


Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier


Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Font of Psionics

6th-level Path of the Wilder feature


When you cast a sorcerer spell of 2nd level or higher using a spell slot, you create another spell slot, which you can use to cast your psionic spells instead converting Psionic Energy dice. The slot you create must be of a level lower than the spell you cast and can’t be higher than 3rd level.

Any spell slot you create with this feature vanishes when you finish a long rest.

Psionic Dreadnought

10th-level Path of the Wilder feature


Your psionic powers grow stronger while raging and can be used while focused. You can use your psionic powers while you aren't raging. Whenever you use a psionic power while raging, you roll the expended Psionic Energy die twice.

Unstable Focus

14th-level Path of the Wilder feature


You have mastered psionics while raging, allowing you to cast spells while raging. If your concentration on a spell ends while you are raging, you and each creature within 10 feet of you takes psychic damage equal to 3 rolls of your Psionic Energy dice.

Bard

College of Anthems

Bards in the College of Anthems congregate to sing odes to the heroes and to the divine. Unusual among bards, those that follow the College of Anthems believe that music and magic is best shared.

Choral Healing

3rd-level College of Anthems feature


Your singing bolsters your allies. A creature that has a Bardic Inspiration die from you magically hovers an inch above the ground and is unaffected by ground-based effects.

As a bonus action, you can expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration to target one creature that is not undead or a construct that you can see within 60 feet of you. The creature regains a number of hit points equal the number rolled on the Bardic Inspiration die plus your Charisma modifier. If the creature is prone, it can use its reaction to stand up.

Liturgy of Hope

Group Chant

6th-level College of Anthems feature


You can spend 10 minutes conducting a group chant with your companions, empowering them through the power of song. When you do so, choose up to six friendly creatures (which can include yourself) within 30 feet of you who can see or hear you and who can understand you. You grant one of the following effects to all creatures that took part in the chant:

Chant of Calm. Each creature gains a +2 bonus to saving throws they make against being charmed or frightened for 1 hour. If a creature benefits from your countercharm feature during this time, any effects charming or frightening the creature are suppressed until the creature no longer benefits from your countercharm. This bonus increases to +4 at 10th level and +6 at 15th level.

Chant of Hope. Each creature regains hit points or gains temporary hit points (your choice) equal to your Bard level + your Charisma modifier. Constructs or undead can only gain temporary hit points.

Chant of Inspiration. Each creature gains a use of your Bardic Inspiration, which lasts for 1 hour.

Chant of Valor. Each creature gains the following benefit for 1 hour: when the creature creature hits a target with an attack roll and deals damage to it, the creature can roll a d4 and gain a bonus to the damage equal to the number rolled. This bonus increases to 1d6 at 10th level and 1d8 at 15th level.

A creature can't benefit from this ability again until it has finished a short or long rest.

Song of Flight

14th-level College of Anthems feature


You grow a pair of spectral eagle wings from your back.

In addition, as a bonus action, you can assume a magically angelic form for 10 minutes or until your concentration ends (as if you were concentrating on a spell). You gain the following benefits for the duration:

  • Your wings corporealize as you gain a flying speed of 60 feet.
  • A creature that has one of your Bardic Inspiration Dice has a flying speed of 30 feet.
  • Whenever you restore hit points to a creature, you roll your Song of Rest die and the creature restores additional hit points equal to the total.
  • Whenever you cast a spell that restores a creature to life, you can cast the spell as an action, and the creature regains additional hit points equal to your Bard level.

Once you assume this angelic presence, you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

College of Blasphemy

Bards in the College of Blasphemy consort with beings from the lower planes to gain inspiration and because it is "totally hardcore". They often attempt to seek fame, fortune, and glory, and are stereotyped as being quite selfish and egotistical. Since members of the College of Blasphemy aren't required to actually consort with fiends, many simply adopt the trappings of fiends to bring ridicule on tyrants who openly admonish fiends but privately make pacts with them.

Bonus Cantrips

3rd-level College of Blasphemy feature


You gain two cantrips of your choice from the warlock spell list. For you, these cantrips count as bard cantrips.

Dark Words

3rd-level College of Blasphemy feature


You gain the ability to make your spells more damaging. When you cast a spell that deals damage, you can expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration. Roll a Bardic Inspiration die and add the number rolled to one damage roll of that spell. You can do so only once per round on your turn.

Dark Secrets

6th-level College of Blasphemy feature


You learn two spells of your choice from any class. A spell you choose must be a spell that deals damage and must be of a level you can cast, as shown on the Bard table, or a cantrip. The chosen spells count as bard spells for you but don’t count against the number of bard spells you know.

Minions of Blasphemy

14th-level College of Blasphemy feature


All have heard of your deeds. Unless given a reason to believe otherwise, a creature with an intelligence score of 8 or higher regards you as a friendly acquaintance.

In addition, as a bonus action, you can enter a magical guise of blasphemy for 1 minute or until you are incapacitated. When you use this feature and as a bonus action on all subsequent turns the guise is active , you can target one creature that you can see and that can hear you within 60 feet of you. The creature must make a Wisdom saving throw; a creature can choose to fail this saving throw if it wishes. On a failure, the target must use its reaction to make a melee attack against a creature other than itself that you mentally choose. If the target can't use its reaction in this way, it can't take reactions until the start of its next turn.

Once you assume this blasphemous guise, you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

College of Education

Bards in the College of Education collect their knowledge for a purpose. They believe that they may not be the strongest or smartest, but they try and ensure that whoever they train will be. They scour the world for worthy pupils, instill those pupils with physical, mental, and moral training matching their worldview, and watch vicariously from the sidelines as their pupils make their marks on the world in the bard's stead.

Bonus Proficiencies

3rd-level College of Education feature


You gain proficiency with two skills of your choice and two weapons of your choice.

Ingrained Knowledge

3rd-level College of Education feature


Your inspiration allows feats beyond compare. Your bardic inspiration lasts 1 hour. Additionally, if a creature other than you rolls one of your Bardic Inspiration dice, the die decreases by one size after the roll instead of becoming lost, unless the die is a d4. For example, if the die is a d6 and you roll a 6, it becomes a d4.

Combat Tutelage

6th-level College of Education feature


Your capacity for teaching others is beyond compare. If you take the attack action or cast a cantrip on your turn, you can target a creature within 30 feet of you that can see and hear you as part of the action. That creature can use its reaction to make a weapon attack or cast a cantrip.

You can’t use this feature on that creature again until you finish a short or long rest.

Group Training

14th-level College of Education feature


When you make an ability check, you can expend one use of Bardic Inspiration to roll a Bardic Inspiration die. Each creature of your choice other than yourself that you can see within 30 feet of you adds the number rolled to the next ability check of the same type they make before the start of your next turn.

College of the Avatar

A bard that practices the College of the Avatar taps into their own emotional aura, mastering their mind to an extent that they can manipulate the emotions of both friend and foe. They can bolster their allies with positive emotions and strike their enemies with negative emotions.

Telepathy

3rd-level College of the Avatar feature


Your connection with thought and emotion gives you the ability to touch the minds of other creatures. You can telepathically speak to any creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You don’t need to share a language with the creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances, but the creature must be able to understand at least one language.

Psionic Power

3rd-level College of the Avatar feature


You harbor a wellspring of psionic energy within yourself. This energy is represented by your Psionic Energy dice, which are each a d6. You have a number of these dice equal to twice your proficiency bonus, and they fuel various psionic powers you have, which are detailed below.

Some of your powers expend the Psionic Energy die they use, as specified in a power’s description, and you can’t use a power if it requires you to use a die when your dice are all expended. You regain all your expended Psionic Energy dice when you finish a long rest. In addition, as a bonus action, you can regain one expended Psionic Energy die, but you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

When you reach certain levels in this class, the size of your Psionic Energy dice increases: at 5th level (d8), 11th level (d10), and 17th level (d12).

The powers below use your Psionic Energy dice.

Psionic Inspiration. As a bonus action, you can expend two Psionic Energy dice and give one creature within 30 feet of you other than yourself one Bardic Inspiration die, without expending a use of that feature. The creature must be able to receive telepathic messages from you, otherwise this ability fails. When you reach 5th level in this class, you expend one Psionic Energy die instead.

Mental Correction. When a creature within 30 feet of you adds one of your Bardic Inspiration dice to its ability check, attack roll, or saving throw and the roll fails, you can use your reaction to expend one Psionic Energy die to let the creature keep the Bardic Inspiration die. The creature must be able to receive telepathic messages from you, otherwise this ability fails.

Psi-bolstered Versatility. When your nonpsionic ability fails you, your psionic power can help: if you fail an ability check using a skill or tool, you can roll one Psionic Energy die and add half the number rolled to the check (rounded down), potentially turning failure into success. You expend the die only if the roll succeeds.

Avatar's Mantle

6th-level College of the Avatar feature


You surround yourself with an magical emotional aura that bolsters your allies. You can adopt a mantle as an action, and you lose the mantle when you are incapacitated or when you adopt a new mantle. A creature cannot benefit from your mantle's effects if it cannot receive telepathic messages from you.

Mantle of Courage. While this mantle is active, you and allies within 10 feet of you who can see you have advantage on saving throws against being frightened. When a creature expends one of your Bardic Inspiration dice, it gains temporary hit points equal to the number rolled.

Mantle of Fury. While this mantle is active, you and allies within 10 feet of you who can see you have advantage on saving throws against being charmed. When a creature expends one of your Bardic Inspiration dice, it can roll a d4 the next time it deals damage before the end of its next turn and add the number rolled to the damage roll.

Mantle of Joy. While this mantle is active, whenever you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature within 10 feet of you, the creature regains 2 additional hit points. When a creature expends one of your Bardic Inspiration dice, it can roll a d4 and regain a number of hit points equal to the roll.

Mantle of Trust. While this mantle is active, you and any ally who starts their turn within 10 feet of you gains a 5-foot increase to their walking speed during that turn. When a creature expends one of your Bardic Inspiration dice, its movement speed increases by 20 feet until the end of its next turn.

Avatar's Crown

14th-level College of the Avatar feature


You can magically weaponize emotions to hinder enemies. As an action, you expend one to four Psionic Energy dice, choose a crown below, and force creatures of your choice within 30 feet of you to make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. A creature must be able to receive telepathic messages from you, otherwise the creature is unaffected.

The Ends Justify the Means. You know what the change should be, do not hesitate to use effective tools even if they are deemed to be unfair or immoral.

The Oath of the Rambler calls to those free souls who wish to partake in all life has to offer, and let others partake in the experiences as well.

Rogue

Niche Experience

3rd-level Gadgeteer feature


You learn infusions from artificers.

Infusions Known

When you gain this feature, pick two artificer infusions to learn, choosing from the “Artificer Infusions” section at the end of the Artificer class’s description. At 9th, 13th, and 17th level, you learn two additional artificer infusions of your choice.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the artificer infusions you learned with a new one.

Infusing an Item

Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch a non-magical object and imbue it with one of your artificer infusions, turning it into a magic item. An infusion works on only certain kinds of objects, as specified in the infusion’s description. If the item requires attunement, you can attune yourself to it the instant you infuse the item. If you decide to attune to the item later, you must do so using the normal process for attunement (see “Attunement” in chapter 7 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide). The infusion uses your rogue level instead of artificer level, and uses your Intelligence modifer + your proficiency bonus as your spell attack bonus and 8 + your Intelligence modifier + your proficiency bonus as your spell save DC.

Your infusion remains in an item indefinitely, but when you die, the infusion vanishes after a number of days have passed equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 day). The infusion also vanishes if you give up your knowledge of the infusion for another one.

When you gain this feature at 3rd level, you can infuse 1 nonmagical object at the end of a long rest. At 9th level, you can can infuse more than one nonmagical object at the end of a long rest; You can infuse 2 objects at 9th level, 3 objects at 13th level, and 4 objects at 17th level.

This sneak attack damage is acid, cold, fire, lightning, or poison, which you choose when you make the prototype.

Toolcraft

9th-level Gadgeteer feature


When you finish a long rest, you can use tinker's tools and touch up to 3 different objects. For each object, choose a 1st or 2nd-level spell from the artificer spell list that requires 1 action to cast. The object is imbued with that spell. While holding the object, a creature can take an action to produce the spell’s effect from it, using your Intelligence as your spellcasting ability modifier. If the spell requires concentration, the creature must concentrate. The spell leaves the object after using the object in this way or until you use this feature again to store a spell in an object.

Magic Item Disruption

13th-level Gadgeteer feature


You gain the ability to sever someone's connection to a magic item. As a bonus action on your turn, you can target a held magic item within 30 feet of you.

Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on the object must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC 8 + your Intelligence modifier + your proficiency bonus). A creature takes 6d6 fire damage and 6d6 bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A creature in the area of more than one blast is affected only once. An object in the area of one or more blasts takes 25 bludgeoning damage from each blast.

Attacks made through the rift are made with three-quarters cover unless the attack is made within 5 feet of a tear. Any creature can use the rift, and it lasts until the end of your next turn.

You have been granted dominion over time, most likely because a strange life event has made your life a paradox. Time flows strangely around you, and you have learned to manipulate the very flow of time.

Future Sight

1st-level Temporal Magic feature


You have advantage on initiative rolls.

When you reach 3rd level in this class, you learn the augury spell, which doesn’t count against your number of sorcerer spells known.

If you cast it with sorcery points, the spell's casting time is 1 action, and it requires no verbal, somatic, or material components.

Paradox

1st-level Temporal Magic feature


When damage reduces you to 0 hit points, you can make a Charisma saving throw (DC 5 + the damage taken). On a success, you instead drop to 1 hit point and vanish. At the end of your next turn, you reappear in the space you left or in an unoccupied space nearest to that space if it’s occupied.

After the saving throw succeeds, you can’t use this feature again until you finish a long rest, or until you spend 1 sorcery point to use it again.

Manipulate Flow

You learn the haste and slow spells, which don’t count against your number of sorcerer spells known. In addition, you can cast them by spending 3 sorcery points or by expending a spell slot.

Quicken

The spell levels must have a combined level that is equal to or less than the level of the slot expended. If a spell has a material cost, you still must pay it.

If a spell that you cast requires concentration, the maximum time you can concentrate on it is a minute. If multiple spells that you cast require concentration, you may concentrate on both of them.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
