Abjuration Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared abjuration spell for another spell of the abjuration school in your spellbook.

Arcane Ward

Starting at 2nd level, you can weave magic around yourself for protection. When you use a spell slot to cast an abjuration spell of 1st level or higher, you can simultaneously use a strand of the spell’s magic to create a magical ward on yourself that lasts until you finish a long rest. The ward has a hit point maximum equal to twice your wizard level + your Intelligence modifier. Whenever you take damage, the ward takes the damage instead. If this damage reduces the ward to 0 hit points, you take any remaining damage.

While the ward has 0 hit points, it can’t absorb damage, but its magic remains. Whenever you cast an abjuration spell of 1st level or higher, the ward regains a number of hit points equal to twice the level of the spell.

Once you create the ward, you can’t create it again until you finish a long rest.

Projected Ward

Starting at 6th level, when a creature that you can see within 30 feet of you takes damage, you can use your reaction to cause your Arcane Ward to absorb that damage. If this damage reduces the ward to 0 hit points, the warded creature takes any remaining damage.

Improved Abjuration

Beginning at 10th level, when you cast an abjuration spell that requires you to make an ability check as a part of casting that spell (as in counterspell and dispel magic), you add your proficiency bonus to that ability check.

Spell Resistance

Starting at 14th level, you have advantage on saving throws against spells.

Furthermore, you have resistance against the damage of spells.

Training in War and Song

When you adopt this tradition at 2nd level, you gain proficiency with light armor as well as simple, and martial weapons.

You also gain proficiency in the Performance skill if you don’t already have it.

Bladesong

Starting at 2nd level, you can invoke a magic called the Bladesong, provided that you aren’t wearing medium or heavy armor or using a shield. It graces you with supernatural speed, agility, and focus.

You can use a bonus action to start the Bladesong, which lasts for 1 minute. Ending early if you are incapacitated, if you don medium or heavy armor or a shield, or if you use two hands to make an attack with a weapon. You can also dismiss the Bladesong at any time.

While active, you gain the following benefits:

• You gain a bonus to your AC equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1.
• Your walking speed increases by 10 feet.
• You have advantage on Acrobatics checks.
• You gain a bonus Constitution saving throws made to maintain your concentration on a spell. The bonus equals your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).

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

Extra Attack

Starting at 6th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. Moreover, you can cast one of your cantrips in place of one of those attacks.

Song of Defense

Beginning at 10th level, you can direct your magic to absorb damage while your Bladesong is active. When you take damage, you can use your reaction to expend one spell slot and reduce that damage to you by an amount equal to five times the spell slot's level.

Song of Victory

Starting at 14th level, you can add your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1) to the damage of your melee weapon attacks while your Bladesong is active.

Chronal Shift

At 2nd level, as a reaction, after you or a creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, you can force the creature to reroll. You make this decision after you see whether the roll succeeds or fails. The target must use the result of the second roll.

You can use this ability twice, and you regain any expended use when you finish a long rest.

Temporal Awareness

Starting at 2nd level, you can add your Intelligence modifier to your initiative rolls.

Momentary Stasis

At 6th level, as an action, you can force a Large or smaller creature you can see within 60 feet to make a Constitution save against your spell save DC. Unless the saving throw is a success, the creature is encased in a field of magical energy until the end of your next turn or until the creature takes any damage. While encased in this way, the creature is incapacitated and has a speed of 0.

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

Arcane Abeyance

At 10th level, when you cast a spell using a spell slot of 4th level or lower, you can condense the spell's magic, freezing it in time at the moment of casting and held within a gray bead for 1 hour. This bead is a Tiny object with AC 15 and 1 hit point, and it is immune to poison and psychic damage. When the duration ends, or the bead is destroyed, it vanishes, and the spell is lost.

A creature holding the bead can use its action to release the spell within, and the bead disappears. The spell uses your spell attack bonus and save DC, and the spell treats the creature who released it as the cast for all other purposes.

Once you create a bead with this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

Convergent Future

Starting at 14th level, you can peer through possible futures and magically pull one of them into events around you, ensuring a particular outcome. When you or a creature you can see within 60 feet of you makes an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can use your reaction to ignore the die roll and decide whether the number rolled is the minimum needed to succeed or one less than that number.

When you use this feature, you gain one level of exhaustion. Only by finishing a long rest can you remove a level of exhaustion gained in this way.

Conjuration Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared conjuration spell for another spell of the conjuration school in your spellbook.

Improved Familiar

Starting at 2nd level, you add the find familiar spell to your spellbook, if it is not there already. If you already know the find familiar spell, you may choose another wizard conjuration spell of 1st level instead.

If your familiar has an Intelligence of 5 or less, its Intelligence becomes 6, and it gains the ability to understand one language of your choice that you speak.

If your familiar is about to take damage, you can dismiss your familiar immediately as a reaction, causing it to disappear. You may have it reappear as an action anywhere within 30 feet of you.

You can communicate telepathically with your familiar and perceive through your familiar’s senses as long as you are on the same plane of existence.

Benign Transposition

Starting at 6th level, you can use your action to teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space that you can see. Alternatively, you can choose a space within range that is occupied by a Small or Medium creature. If that creature is willing, you both teleport, swapping places. If that creature is unwilling they must make an Intelligence saving throw DC = your spell save), or you swap places with them.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest or you cast a conjuration spell of 1st level or higher.

Focused Conjuration

Beginning at 10th level, while you are concentrating on a conjuration spell, your concentration can’t be broken as a result of taking damage.

Durable Summons

Starting at 14th level, any creature that you summon or create with a conjuration spell has twice as many hitpoints as normal.

Divination Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared divination spell for another spell of the divination school in your spellbook.

Portent

Starting at 2nd level when you choose this school, glimpses of the future begin to press in on your awareness. When you finish a long rest, roll two d20s and record the numbers rolled. You can replace any attack roll, saving throw, or ability check made by you or a creature that you can see with one of these foretelling rolls. You must choose to do so before the roll, and you can replace a roll in this way only once per turn.

Each foretelling roll can be used only once. When you finish a long rest, you lose any unused foretelling rolls.

Expert Divination

Beginning at 6th level, casting divination spells comes so easily to you that it expends only a fraction of your spellcasting efforts. When you cast a divination spell of 2nd level or higher using a spell slot, you regain one expended spell slot. The slot you regain must be of a level lower than the spell you cast and can’t be higher than 5th level.

The Third Eye

Starting at 10th level, you can use your action to increase your powers of perception. When you do so, choose one of the following benefits, which lasts until you are incapacitated or you take a short or long rest. You can’t use the feature again until you finish a rest.

Darkvision. You gain darkvision out to a range of 60 feet, as described in chapter 8, “Adventuring.”

Ethereal Sight. You can see into the Ethereal Plane within 60 feet of you.

Greater Comprehension. You can read any language.

See Invisibility. You can see invisible creatures and objects within 10 feet of you that are within line of sight.

Greater Portent

Starting at 14th level, the visions in your dreams intensify and paint a more accurate picture in your mind of what is to come. You roll three d20s for your Portent feature, rather than two.

Enchantment Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared enchantment spell for another spell of the enchantment school in your spellbook.

Hypnotic Gaze

Starting at 2nd level, when you cast an enchantment spell to charm one or more creatures, you can alter one creature’s mind so that it remains unaware of being charmed.

In addition, as an action, choose one creature that you can see within 5 feet. If the target can see or hear you, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your wizard spell save DC or be charmed by you until the end of your next turn. The charmed creature’s speed drops to 0, and the creature is incapacitated and visibly dazed.

On subsequent turns, you can use your action to maintain this effect, extending its duration until the end of your next turn. The effect ends if you move more than 5 feet away from the creature, if the creature can neither see nor hear you, or if the creature takes damage.

Once the effect ends, or if the creature succeeds on its initial saving throw against this effect, you can’t use this feature on that creature again until you finish a long rest.

Instinctive Charm

Beginning at 6th level, when a creature you can see within 30 feet makes an attack against you, you can use your reaction to divert the attack if another creature is within the attack’s range. The attacker makes a Wisdom saving throw against your wizard spell save DC. On a failed save, the attacker targets the creature that is closest to it instead, not including you or itself. If multiple creatures are closest, the attacker chooses. On a successful save, you can’t use this feature on the attacker again until you finish a long rest.

You must choose to use this feature before knowing whether the attack hits or misses. Creatures that can’t be charmed are immune.

Split Enchantment

Starting at 10th level, when you cast an enchantment spell that targets one creature, you can have it target a second.

Alter Memories

At 14th level, when you cast an enchantment spell to charm one or more creatures, once before the spell ends, you can use your action to make the chosen creature forget some of the time it spent charmed. The creature must succeed on an Intelligence saving throw against your wizard spell save DC or lose a number of hours of its memories equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier. You can make the creature forget less time, but the time forgotten can’t exceed the duration of your enchantment spell.

Evocation Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared evocation spell for another spell of the evocation school in your spellbook.

Sculpt Spells

Beginning at 2nd level, you can create pockets of relative safety within the effects of your evocation spells. When you cast an evocation spell that affects other creatures that you can see, you can choose a number of them equal to 1 + the spell’s level. The chosen creatures automatically succeed on their saving throws against the spell, and they take no damage if they would normally take half damage on a successful save.

Potent Cantrip

Starting at 6th level, your mastery of elemental damage allows you to alter your damaging cantrips. Whenever you cast a cantrip that deals a type of damage from the following list, you can change that damage type to one of the other listed types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, poison or thunder.

Empowered Evocation

Beginning at 10th level, you can add your Intelligence modifier to one damage roll of any wizard evocation spell you cast.

Overchannel

Starting at 14th level, you can increase the power of your simpler spells. When you cast a wizard spell of 1st through 5th level that deals damage, you can deal maximum damage with that spell.

The first time you do so, you suffer no adverse effect. If you use this feature again before you finish a long rest, you take 2d12 necrotic damage for each level of the spell, immediately after you cast it. Each time you use this feature again before finishing a long rest, the necrotic damage per spell level increases by 1d12. This damage ignores resistance and immunity.

Adjust Density

At 2nd level, as a bonus action, you can magically alter the weight of one object or creature you can see within 30 feet of you. The object or creature must be Large or smaller. The target's weight is halved or doubled for up to 1 minute. Only one target can be under this affect at a time.

While the weight of a creature is halved by this effect, the creature's speed increases by 10 feet, it can jump twice as far as normal, and it has disadvantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws.

While the weight of a creature is doubled by this effect, the creature's speed is reduced by 10 feet, and it has advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws.

Upon reaching 10th level in this class, you can target an object or a creature that is Huge or smaller, and can have up to two objects or creatures affected at one time.

Gravity Well

When you reach 6th level, whenever you cast a spell on a creature, you can move the target 15 feet horizontally to an unoccupied space of your choice if the target is willing to move, the spell hits it with an attack, or it fails a saving throw against the spell.

Violent Attraction

At 10th level, when another creature that you can see within 60 feet of you hits with a weapon attack, you can use your reaction to increase the attack's velocity, causing the attack's target to take an extra 2d10 damage of the weapon's type.

Alternatively, if a creature within 60 feet of you takes damage from a fall, you can use your reaction to increase the fall's damage by 3d10.

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

Event Horizon

Starting at 14th level, as an action, you can magically emit a powerful field of gravitational energy that tugs at other creatures for up to 1 minute or until your concentration ends (as if you were concentrating on a spell). For the duration, whenever a creature hostile to you starts its turn within 30 feet of you, it must make a Strength saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, it takes 2d10 force damage, and its speed is reduced to 0 until the start of its next turn. On a successful save, it takes half as much damage, and every foot it moves this turn costs 2 extra feet of movement.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest or until you expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher on it.

Illusion Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared illusion spell for another spell of the illusion school in your spellbook.

Improved Minor Illusion

When you choose this school at 2nd level, you learn the minor illusion cantrip. If you already know this cantrip, you learn a different wizard cantrip of your choice. The cantrip doesn’t count against your number of cantrips known.

When you cast minor illusion, you can create both a sound and an image with a single casting of the spell.

Malleable Illusions

Starting at 6th level, when you cast an illusion spell that has a duration of 1 minute or longer, you can use your action to change the nature of that illusion (using the spell’s normal parameters for the illusion), provided that you can see the illusion.

Illusory Self

Beginning at 10th level, you can create an illusory duplicate of yourself as an instant, almost instinctual reaction to danger. When a creature makes an attack roll against you, you can use your reaction to interpose the illusory duplicate between the attacker and yourself. The attack automatically misses you, then the illusion dissipates.

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

Illusory Reality

By 14th level, you have learned the secret of weaving shadow magic into your illusions to give them a semi-reality. When you cast an illusion spell of 1st level or higher, you can choose one inanimate, nonmagical object that is part of the illusion and make that object real. You can do this on your turn as a bonus action while the spell is ongoing. The object remains real for 1 minute. For example, you can create an illusion of a bridge over a chasm and then make it real long enough for your allies to cross.

The object can’t deal damage or otherwise directly harm anyone.

Necromancy Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared necromancy spell for another spell of the necromancy school in your spellbook.

Grim Harvest

At 2nd level, you gain the ability to reap life energy from creatures you kill with your spells. Once per turn when you kill one or more creatures with a spell of 1st level or higher, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Intelligence modifier + your Wizard level. You don’t gain this benefit for killing constructs or undead.

Undead Thralls

At 6th level, you add the animate dead spell to your spellbook if it is not there already. If you already have the animate dead spell, you may select another wizard necromancy spell of 3rd level or lower. When you cast animate dead, you can target one additional corpse or pile of bones, creating another zombie or skeleton, as appropriate.

Whenever you create an undead using a necromancy spell, it has additional benefits:

• The creature’s hit point maximum is increased by an amount equal to your wizard level.
• The creature adds your proficiency bonus to its weapon damage rolls.

Inured to Undeath

Beginning at 10th level, you are immune to necrotic damage, and your hit point maximum can’t be reduced. You have spent so much time dealing with undead and the forces that animate them that you have become inured to some of their worst effects.

Command Undead

Starting at 14th level, you can use magic to bring undead under your control, even those created by other wizards. As an action, you can choose one undead that you can see within 60 feet of you. That creature must make a Charisma saving throw against your wizard spell save DC. If it succeeds, you can’t use this feature on it again. If it fails, it becomes friendly to you and obeys your commands until you use this feature again.

Intelligent undead are harder to control in this way. If the target has an Intelligence of 8 or higher, it has advantage on the saving throw. If it fails the saving throw and has an Intelligence of 12 or higher, it can repeat the saving throw at the end of every hour until it succeeds and breaks free.

Wizardly Quill

At 2nd level, you can create a quill that doesn’t require ink. It produces ink in a color of your choice. The time you must spend to copy a spell into your spell book equals 2 minutes per spell level, and you can erase anything you write with the quill by waving the feather over the text. The quill disappears if you create another one or die.

Awakened Spellbook

At 2nd level you have awakened an arcane sentience within your spellbook, granting you the following:

• You can use the book as a spellcasting focus
• When you cast a spell, you can replace its damage type with another type in your spellbook
• Once per long rest, when you cast a ritual, you don't have to add 10 minutes to it's casting time

Manifest Mind

At 6th level, as a bonus action, you can cause the mind of the book to manifest as a Tiny spectral object, hovering in an unoccupied space within 60 feet of. The mind is intangible and doesn't occupy its space, it sheds dim light in a 10-foot radius, and can move 30 feet per turn, acting on your initiative. The mind disappears if it is more than 300 feet away.

The spectral mind can hear and see, and has darkvision 60 feet. The mind can telepathically share with you what it sees and hears.

When you cast a spell, you can cast it as if you were in the spectral mind's space, using its senses. You can do so a number of times per day equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.

Master Scriviner

At 10th level, whenever you finish a long rest, you can create one magic scroll, copying it from your spellbook. The spell must be of 1st or 2nd level with a casting time of 1 action. Once in the scroll, the spell counts as one level higher. The spell lasts until your next long rest during which time anyone can cast the spell from the scroll.

One with the Word

At 14th level, you have advantage on Arcana checks.

Once per long rest, when you take damage you can prevent all of that damage to you by using your reaction to have your spellbook protect you. Then roll 3d6. The spellbook temporarily loses spells of your choice that have a combined spell level equal to that roll or higher. If there aren't enough spells in the book to cover this cost, you drop to 0 hit points.

After 1d6 long rests the spells reappear in the spell book.

Transmutation Savant

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, you may spend 1 minute to change a prepared transmutation spell for another spell of the transmutation school in your spellbook.

Minor Alchemy

At 2nd level, you can alter a nonmagical object, changing it from one substance into another. You transmute one object made of crystal, wood, stone (but not a gemstone), iron, steel, copper, glass, or silver, transforming it into a different one of those materials. For every 10 minutes spent performing the procedure, you can transform 1 cubic foot of material. After 1 hour, or until you lose concentration, the object reverts to its original substance.

Transmuter’s Stone

At 6th level, you can create a transmuter’s stone as an action. A creature gains a benefit of your choice as long as the stone is in their possession. When you create the stone, choose the benefit from the following:

• Darkvision out to a range of 60 feet
• Speed increases by 10 feet
• Proficiency in Constitution saving throws
• Resist acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage

You can change the effect of your stone as an action if it is on your person. If you create a new transmuter’s stone, the previous one ceases to function.

Shapechanger

At 10th level, add polymorph to your spellbook. If you already have it you may select another wizard spell of up to 5th level. You can cast polymorph without using a spell slot once per short ot long rest targeting only yourself and your concentration on the spell can't break from damage.

Master Transmuter

Starting at 14th level, you can use your action to choose one of the following effects. Your transmuter’s stone is destroyed and can’t be remade until you finish a long rest.

• Transformation. Change a nonmagical object into another. Neither larger than a 5-foot cube, the new object must be of similar size, mass, and less value.
• Panacea. Remove all curses, diseases, and poisons affecting a creature you touch with the transmuter’s stone. The creature also regains all its hit points.
• Restore Life. A creature you touch with the stone is brought back to life as if a raise dead spell was cast.
• Restore Youth. You touch the transmuter’s stone to a willing creature, and that creature’s apparent age is reduced by 3d10 years, to a minimum of 13 years. This effect doesn’t extend their lifespan.

Arcane Deflection

At 2nd level, you have learned to weave your magic to fortify yourself against harm. When you are hit by an attack or you fail a saving throw, you can use your reaction to gain a +2 bonus to your AC against that attack or a +4 bonus to that saving throw.

When you use this feature, you can’t cast spells other than cantrips until the end of your next turn.

Tactical Wit

Starting at 2nd level, your keen ability to assess tactical situations allows you to act quickly in battle. You can give yourself a bonus to your initiative rolls equal to your Intelligence modifier.

Power Surge

Starting at 6th level, you can store magical energy within yourself to later empower your damaging spells.

You can store a maximum number of power surges equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of one). Whenever you finish a long rest, your number of power surges resets to one. Whenever you successfully end a spell with Dispel Magic or Counterspell, you gain one power surge, as you steal magic from the spell you foiled. If you end a short rest with no power surges, you gain one power surge.

Once per turn when you deal damage to a creature or object with a wizard spell, you can spend one power surge to deal extra force damage to that target. The extra damage equals your wizard level.

Durable Magic

Beginning at 10th level, the magic you channel helps ward off harm. While you maintain concentration on a spell, you have a +2 bonus to AC and all saving throws.

Deflecting Shroud

At 14th level, your Arcane Deflection becomes infused with deadly magic. When you use your Arcane Deflection feature, you can cause magical energy to arc from you. Up to three creatures of your choice within 60 feet of you each take force damage equal to half your wizard level.
