The Oracle

A kindly dwarven man sits at the center of a small village, offering insights into how best to plant the fields and what the villagers can expect in the coming days. A woman rushes forward, her sick child cradled in her arms, and the dwarf steps to meet her, mist trailing from his eyes as he peers into the future. He sees the child hale and hearty, and with a soft touch, he dispels the child's ailment.

An armored half-orc advances across the field of battle with her company. As their enemies draw near, she puts her hand on her comrade's shoulder, sharing with them a vision of their glorious victory. With a surge of strength, they crash into the enemy line, victory at hand.

An elderly human man shouts to any who will listen about the coming of the end times. They avoid him, thinking him mad, for they cannot have seen what he has. A pair of guards approach, ready to clear the man off, but before they can reach him, they're struck down by bolts of lightning. Despite the gruesome scene, the man keeps on calling to those around him, his voice only growing louder and firmer.

Oracles are individuals with a connection to a higher power, one that grants them visions of potential futures that could come to pass. An oracle must confront the futures they foresee, and the very nature of the universe around them, and ultimately decide what future they think is right.

Class Features

As an oracle, you gain the following class features

Spellcasting

At 1st level, the connection that grants you your foresight has also manifested within you the ability to cast spells.

Oracular Secrets

In your study of the past, present, and future, you have unearthed Oracular Secrets, fragments of knowledge and insight from your visions or your connection that imbue you with extra power.

At 2nd level, you gain two oracular secrets of your choice, found at the end of the class description. When you gain certain oracles levels, you gain additional secrets of your choice, as shown in the Secrets Known column of the Oracle table. A level prerequisite refers to your level in this class.

Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the secrets you know and replace it with another secret that you could learn at that level.

Oracle's Eyes

At 3rd level, your sight has improved, letting you innately see things others cannot. You gain access to additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Oracle's Eyes Spells table. Once you gain one of these spells, you always have it prepared, and it doesn't count against the number of spells you can prepare each day.

Oracular Insight

By 6th level, your enhanced eyesight has also elevated your ability to understand and perceive the mundane. Choose Insight or Perception. Whenever you make a check with the chosen skill, you gain a bonus to the roll. The bonus is equal to one roll of your Omen die.

Shared Vision

At 7th level, you gain the ability to share a vision of an imminent future with a creature. As an action you can touch another creature, and grant it a brief look into its potential future. Choose one of the following effects:

• Alacrity. You show the creature a vision of itself reacting to a threat with great speed. The creature has advantage on the next initiative roll it makes, and when combat starts, it loses the surprised condition, if it has it. During the first round of combat, its movement speed is increased by 15 feet. The effect then ends.
• Ferocity. You show the creature a vision of itself striking down its foes. The next time the creature takes the Attack action, it has advantage on its attack rolls and deals additional damage equal to its proficiency bonus when it hits a creature. The effect then ends.
• Guile. You show the creature a vision of itself using its wits to dazzle those around it. The next time the creature makes a Charisma (Deception), Charisma (Performance), or Charisma (Persuasion) check, it has advantage on the roll and cannot roll a number lower than half its level (rounded down). The effect then ends.
• Resilience. You show the creature a vision of itself shrugging off a potentially lethal blow. The next time the creature is hit by an attack and takes damage, the damage it takes is reduced by an amount equal to half its level (rounded down) plus its proficiency bonus. The effect then ends.

Regardless of the effect you choose, it lasts until it's expended, you use this feature again, or the affected creature finishes a long rest. You have a number of uses of this feature equal to your proficiency bonus, and regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. While you have no uses of this feature remaining, you can expend two uses of your Omen feature to use it again.

First Revelation

At 10th level, all that you have seen has awakened a new understanding within you about the nature of your fellow mortals. You gain one of the following features of your choice.

• Insidious. You believe that mortals are naturally malicious and conniving creatures, and you channel that through your magic. You always have the Dissonant Whispers spell prepared and it doesn't count against the number of oracle spells you can prepare. You can also cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you do, its damage dice uses your Omen die, instead of d6s.

• Generous. You believe that mortals are naturally loving and giving creatures, and you channel that through your magic. You always have the Bless spell prepared and it doesn't count against the number of oracle spells you can prepare. You can also cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you do, each creature targeted by the spell regains a number of hit points equal to two rolls of your Omen die. You do not gain this benefit if you target yourself.

Hastened Omen

At 11th level, your visions come at a heightened speed. You gain an additional reaction each round. This reaction can only be used to use your Omen feature.

Second Revelation

At 14th level, all that you have seen has awakened a new understanding within you about the nature of the world around you. You gain one of the following features of your choice.

• Chaos. You believe that the world is in constant shift, uncontrolled by anyone, and channel that through your magic. You always have the Enemies Abound spell prepared and it doesn't count against the number of oracle spells you can prepare. You can also cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you do, a creature that is immune to the frightened condition doesn't automatically succeed on its saving throw.

• Order. You believe that the world is changing according to a preset path, and channel that through your magic. You always have the Dispel Magic spell prepared and it doesn't count against the number of oracle spells you can prepare. You can also cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you do, you can give yourself a bonus to the spellcasting ability check equal to one roll of your Omen die.

Third Revelation

At 18th level, all that you have seen has awakened a new understanding within you about the very nature of the universe. You gain one of the following features of your choice.

• Decay. You believe that the universe is in a constant state of decay, and channel that through your magic. You always have the Contagion spell prepared and it doesn't count against the number of oracle spells you can prepare. You can also cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you do, the spell ignores immunity to poison.

• Growth. You believe that the universe is in a constant state of growth, and channel that through your magic. You always have the Greater Restoration spell prepared and it doesn't count against the number of oracle spells you can prepare. You can also cast it once without using a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you do, you can cast it without material components.

Sight Untethered

When you reach 20th level, your sight transcends all barriers. You have truesight out to a range of 30 feet. Additionally, whenever you use your Omen feature, you can choose to use a d6, instead of expending one of its uses.

Oracular Vocations

Different oracles receive different visions of the future. Your Vocation reflects the types of futures you see.

Preserving Omen

At 3rd level, your visions of the future show the rapid recovery of your allies. You gain a new way to use your Omen feature. Immediately after a creature you can see within 30 feet of you takes damage, you can use your reaction to cause the creature to regain hit points equal to one roll of your Omen die plus your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1). You cannot use this feature if the damage reduces the creature to 0 hit points.

Life Bringer

At 5th level, the spells you cast to heal others are empowered. Whenever you roll healing for an oracle spell you cast using a spell slot of 1st level or higher, you gain a bonus to one roll of the spell. The bonus is equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1). If the spell you cast is from your Life Spells feature, the bonus to the healing roll is instead equal to half your proficiency bonus (rounded down) plus your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1).

Portent of Regrowth

Starting at 9th level, you can share with a creature a vision of its own miraculous recovery, helping it come to pass. When another creature you can see within 30 feet of you is reduced to 0 hit points, but not killed outright, you can use your reaction to expend two uses of your Omen feature to cause it to regain hit points equal to two rolls of your Omen die plus your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1).

Heal and Preserve

By 15th level, the spells you unleash can carry incredible restorative power. When you cast a spell from your Life Spells feature, you can choose to use the highest number possible for each die, instead of rolling.

Once you've used this feature, you cannot do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend three uses of your Omen feature to use it again.

War Herald

The futures you see are ones of blood soaked fields and clashing blades. You foresee war, be it a despot conquering another nation, revolutionaries rising up against their tyrannical rulers, or a battle for much higher stakes, on a much grander scale. Regardless of its magnitude, you prepare yourself for battle, observing the talents and techniques of warriors, many of whom you are yet to meet.

Oracular Secrets

If an oracular secret has prerequisites, you must meet them to learn it. You can learn the secret at the same time you meet its prerequisites. A level prerequisite refers to your level in this class.

Omnipresent Sight

You're sight allows you to sense things you cant directly perceive. You have blindsight to a range of 10 feet. Within that range, you can effectively see anything that isn't behind total cover, even if you're blinded or in darkness. Moreover, you can see invisible creatures within that range, unless the creatures successfully hide from you.

Omen of Death

Prerequisite: Desolation Seer Vocation

Creature's suffer when they hear the omens you bring, fearing their outcome. When you use Fell Omen and the creature fails its attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, it takes psychic damage equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1).

Omen of Shielding

Prerequisite: Life Augur

Your omens provide your allies with additional comfort, knowing that someone is looking out for their future. When you use Preserving Omen, the creature also gains temporary hit points equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1), which last until the start of their next turn.

Omen of Slaughter

Prerequisite: War Herald Vocation

Your omens fill your allies with strength, allowing them to carry on in battle. When you use Bloodshedding Omen and the creature making the attack reduces its target to 0 hit points, it regains a number of hit points equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1).

Oracular Knowledge

Prerequisite: 6th level

You've retained much of the information you have seen in visions, expanding your own knowledge. Choose Arcana, History, Nature, or Religion. Whenever you make a check with the chosen skill, you gain a bonus to the roll. The bonus is equal to one roll of your Omen die.

You've studied those around you and those you see in visions, learning to present yourself in a manner most befitting a specific situation. Choose Deception, Intimidation, Performance, or Persuasion. Whenever you make a check with the chosen skill, you gain a bonus to the roll. The bonus is equal to one roll of your Omen die.

Perfect Strike

Prerequisite: War Herald Vocation, 6th level

You've learned to use your sight to strike with devastating precision. Once per turn, when you hit a creature with a weapon attack using your Wisdom modifier, you can expend an oracle spell slot to deal an extra 1d8 damage to the target, plus another 1d8 per level of the spell slot. The next attack roll made against this target before the end of your next turn has advantage, due to the opening you create.

Once you've used this feature, you cannot do so again until you finish a short or long rest, unless you expend a use of your Omen feature to use it again.

Persistent Omen

Prerequisite: 10th level

When you add one of your Omen dice to a creature's ability check, attack roll, or saving throw and the roll fails, the creature can add the Omen die to its next roll of the same type within 10 minutes.

Shared Omen

When you add one of your Omen dice to a creature's ability check, attack roll, or saving throw and the roll succeeds, you can share in their success. You can add a d4 to the next roll of the same type that you make within 1 minute.

Unhindered Defense

By not wearing armor, you allow yourself to more nimbly dodge the attacks you see coming in the future. While you're not wearing armor and not wielding a shield, your AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Wisdom modifier.

Vision Trance

Prerequisite: 10th level

You can channel magic through your body to force yourself to experience new visions. As an action, you may expend an oracle spell slot, and recover a number of expended uses of your Omen feature equal to the slot's level.
