Amidst sacred groves and holy forests, there exists a special order of clerics known as the Verdant Sages. These devout followers of nature draw their power from the wilderness and channel such energy through the use of aromatic herbs. Unlike typical clerics, Verdant Sages are granted power by a number of gods with the intention of maintaining the balance of nature, rather than worshiping and obeying a single deity. Known as 'Worshippers of Mother Nature,' Verdant Sages are often mistaken for druids and typically work very closely with them, further contributing to outsiders' misunderstandings.

### Channel Divinity: Ascetic Aroma
Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to empower your Sagacious Incense. As an action, you can infuse your currently active Sagacious Incense with ancient power, expanding its effective range from 10 feet to 30 feet until the incense's duration expires. Additionally, you and friendly creatures affected by your Sagacious Incense gain advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.

### Pious Perfume
Starting at 6th level, your Sagacious Incense weakens your enemies. Whenever a hostile creature within the range of your Sagacious Incense makes an attack roll or a saving throw, the target must roll a d4 and subtract the number rolled from the attack roll or saving throw.
