The Weaveshaper
An elf chants in an ancient library, listening to the whispers
of the story stones around her. Ribbons of arcane energy form
around her blades each time she cuts at the air, gathering her
power in practice for what must be done.
A human man clad in red and black faces a massive golem
of cloth and necromantic magic. He summons a strange sword
to his hands while calling to the arcane eye bound upon his
magical outfit. In a flash of light the outfit transforms into a suit
of fantastical armor covered in blades. With incredible speed,
he launches forward and lashes out at the nightmare with a
barrage of attacks, cutting and cleaving.
A dwarf gestures, weaving a massive bladed mace from
arcane thread as massive mechanical armor grows around her.
The oncoming orcish horde heistates for just a moment, and
that’s all the time she needs to break them.
A tiefling cloaked in darkness spins a web of shadowy string
between his hands. As a tavern brawl begins, he stands and
demands that the violent patrons take their fight elsewhere,
coiling tentacles of dark shadowsilk writhing in the air around
him. Frightened, the combatants quickly flee, never seeing the
tiefling’s bladed cloak twitch ominously.
These are weaveshapers: warriors who pursue magical
and martial perfection by creating powerful weapons
called threadblades. By infusing their bodies with countless
fragments of arcane energy from every school of magic, they
strive for perfection through cunning artifice and martial
study rather than introspective meditation or exploration of
the more traditional arcane arts.
Woven Blades
There is a certain power in harmony and unity between the
arcane disciplines. Weaveshapers seek to harness this unity
and instill within themselves the same eerie perfection.
Thus, they train their bodies and minds to work in unison,
learning to weave threads of arcane energy comprised of the
many different strands of arcana.
The first act that defines the weaveshaper is the creation
of a threadblade. By memorizing the complex gestures
and mental states required to invoke arcane thread, the
weaveshaper can create powerful weapons with strange and
majestic forms. These weapons are known as threadblades,
as they appear to be woven from strings of magic. The
sharpened edges and eerie blades of these wicked tools
are crafted by conjuring thin panes of raw force around
compressed arcane thread, leading to colorful and powerful
expressions of each weaveshaper’s personal style.
Skin and Skein
Once a weaveshaper masters the creation of their
threadblade, the next step is the creation of an arcane
infusion. By weaving arcane energy into their clothing and
bodies, these magical warriors begin to ascend to a higher
physical and mental state. The most common manifestation
of this power is a set of remarkable garb, which layers over
the weaveshaper, providing strength and durability through
magical enhancement. Unlike monks, who harness the
natural power of ki within themselves, weaveshapers rely
on arcane mastery and knowledge to empower their bodies
to the peak of perfection.
Personal Tapestries
Each weaveshaper has a unique taste and style, as all
creative artists do, and so they learn to create mystical
accessories to compliment their infusions and threadblades.
These can manifest in a variety of ways, from sentient
eyes of woven cloth or cloaks of living blades to massive
mechanical armor and illusory tomes of arcana. The
threadblade may be a masterwork that binds them,
and infusion is an art often discussed, but conversation
regarding these personal implements is rare by custom.
Unified Patterns
Despite the varying threadblades, infusions, and tapestries
of the weaveshapers, the methods for unleashing arcane
might during combat is rigid, structured, and subject
to much scholarly discussion. The arcane essence of a
threadblade naturally aligns to a peculiar set of attacks,
one following another to weave a resulting rush of
magical energies. Some patterns empower the body of
the weaveshaper, allowing one to strike with swiftness
and surety, while others unleash elemental forces or
conjure other weapons. Many weaveshapers say their
study is merely scholastic, but the results in battle are
unquestionable and undeniable.
Creating a Weaveshaper
When creating a weaveshaper, consider how you came to
adopt this rare skill. Most weaveshapers train under tutors,
learn in academies dedicated to the arcane arts, or are
taught by entities bound to them due to the strange loom of
fate. Why did you choose to continue down this path instead
of learning traditional magic, for which you obviously have
the aptitude? Is it due to restrictions placed upon you by
your culture or your family? Is it by personal choice, seeing
the mundane arcane arts as beneath you, or beyond your
grasp? Do you endeavor to study both, and have merely
started your journey here? Regardless, the path you’ve
chosen is one that must be tread with careful consideration.
Quick Build
You can make a weaveshaper quickly by following these
suggestions. First, make Dexterity your highest ability
score, followed by Intelligence, since it is essential when
using your pattern attacks and when casting the spells you
gain later. Then, select the Scissorblade. Finally, choose a
background that would present you with an opportunity to
study the arcane arts.

to the damage roll.
Weave Finishers
At 2nd level, you learn to perform Weave Finishers: deadly
finishing moves fueled by your arcane power. Each time
you make an attack with your threadblade or an accessory

your threadblade as a ribbon of light. Your collected
arcane strings disappear after 1 minute and when you roll
initiative.
You can perform a Weave Finisher by spending the
listed number of arcane strings stated in each Finisher’s
description by using your bonus action when you take the

new one for which you meet the prerequisites when you
gain a level in this class. You can’t exchange Restitch for
another Weave Finisher.

Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your weaveshaper
spells and Weave Finishers, since your control over magic
comes from careful study and practice. You use your
Intelligence whenever a spell or Weave Finisher refers
to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for
a weaveshaper spell you cast, when a weaveshaper feature
you use requires the target make a saving throw, and when
making a spell attack roll from casting a weaveshaper spell
or using a weaveshaper feature.

movement speed is halved until the end of its next turn.
Weaveshaper Tapestry
At 3rd level, you create a powerful magical accessory that

your action to call and shape your arcane thread into useful
objects, tools, and other ordinary devices that weigh less

beyond your talents, depending on their complexity, and all
items created with this feature are visibly magical.
You can also weave arcane thread in the form of a 100-foot
silk rope with grappling hook, a 10-foot ladder, a spyglass,
or a table with chairs. These items fade if you summon one
again or after one minute if you stop touching them.

Medium or smaller creatures with ease, has AC 10, and can
hold up to 10,000 lbs at a time. If a bridge or stairway takes
damage, you can choose to either take the damage in its
place, or allow it to vanish.

throw before the start of your next turn.

Weaveshaper Tapestries
A weaveshaper pursues martial perfection through arcane
scholarship, treating clothing as a weapon and tool of
war. However, no outfit is complete without the perfect
accessory. Thus, weaveshapers traditionally pursue the
creation of these accessories, called tapestries, to channel
the latent arcane power within their infusions.
Crimson Couturier
Your tapestry manifests as an eye of living thread and
arcane intelligence, bound to your infusion. It is sentient
and can speak with you, though it is merely a reflection
of your own subconscious knowledge. You pour your own
blood into this tapestry as you fight, and it grants you speed,
strength, and endless determination. Fight as one, and find
your way.
Couturier Arts
When you choose this tapestry, you also learn certain spells.
You can cast each of these spells once, and you regain the
ability to cast them when you finish a long rest.

Fresh Blood
At 3rd level, you create your tapestry and begin to feed it
with your blood and power, demanding it to grow alongside
you. You can use this accessory as a weapon to make melee
spell attacks that deal slashing damage equal to 1d12 + your
Intelligence modifier, causing blades, fangs, and razor
edges to spring from your outfit and strike. If this attack
hits and the target is grappling you, you can free yourself
automatically. If you are grappling your target, this attack is
made with advantage.
Unstoppable Duo
At 6th level, your connection to your tapestry allows you
to perform impossible feats. You gain a bonus to Strength
checks and saving throws equal to your Weave Tier, and
when you take the Dash action, your jumping height and
distance increases to equal your walking speed.
Rise as One
At 10th level, your tapestry demands your body act, even
when it has been broken. You can stand from prone without
using movement at any time during your turn and you
can use your Clothier’s Cleave attack even while you are
unconscious. Additionally, your Renaissance Regular
feature’s stairway or bridge can now reach up to 60 feet.
Fearless Flight
At 14th level, you connect perfectly with your tapestry and
unlock the power within your infusion, transforming it into
a form far greater than before. While you are wearing no
armor, you gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed
and you can’t be frightened.
Mortal Couturier
You are different from other weaveshapers. You view your
threadblade as the ultimate accessory, so you seek to master
every form it can take. You store your research in a floating,
illusory tome that follows at your shoulder, holding your
infinite array of threadblades within. Your struggle is
an endless one, for to wear weapons of war is to become
war itself. Glory to mortality, for everything that lives is
designed to end.

the threadblade list. You can change both your threadblade
forms when you finish a short or long rest. You can summon
either threadblade immediately before making an attack.
Choose one or more of your threadblade forms each time
you select them. These threadblades use your Intelligence
ability score modifier for attack and damage rolls, instead of
your Strength or Dexterity.
Shards of Light
At 6th level, your tapestry allows you to fragment your form
into illusions. When you take the Dodge action, you create
false figments of your form that move alongside you until
the start of your next turn. The first time you are targeted
by a creature’s attack during this time, it must first make an
Intelligence saving throw. If it fails, the attack automatically
misses.
Illusory Evasion
At 10th level, you can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain
area effects, such as a red dragon’s fiery breath or a fireball
spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you
to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage,
you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving
throw, and only half damage if you fail. You can have your
Renaissance Regular feature’s stairway or bridge be illusory,
or illusory to all creatures except you.
Glory Eternal
At 14th level, you gain access to all categories of
threadblades, and can summon any of them at any time.
You can use either your Dexterity or your Intelligence to
attack with them, and you can’t be stunned or paralyzed.
Starspiral Couturier
Your tapestry is woven from the light of the stars
themselves, forming an armor around your body. It is
strangely mechanical, yet smooth and comforting. Powered
by your will and your brilliant arcane energy while moving
in tandem with your body, this suit acts as an extension of
your infusion, allowing you to stride across the battlefield as
a massive harbinger of hope and destruction. Listen to the
stars, and pierce the heavens.

armor and provides you with deadly ranged attacks to
supplement your threadblade. You can use this accessory
as a weapon to make ranged spell attacks at a range of 120
feet that deal force damage equal to 1d10 + your Intelligence
modifier, launching explosive stabbing missiles from
your arcane mechanisms. This attack isn’t made with
disadvantage if your target is prone, and deals twice as much
damage if your target is Huge or larger.
Massive Machine
At 6th level, you can choose to increase the size and power of
your tapestry. You can use your action to become Large for
1 minute, or to return to normal size. While you are Large
or larger, you gain advantage on Strength checks and saving
throws, and whenever you take damage, you can reduce the
damage you take by 2, after any resistances.
Galactic Body
At 10th level, your tapestry protects you from the strange
spaces beyond the world. You no longer need to breathe,
you gain resistance to necrotic and radiant damage, and you
are immune to poison. Your Renaissance Regular feature’s
stairway or bridge can now be big enough to be easily
traversable by Huge or smaller creatures.
Heaven Piercer
At 14th level, you finish your tapestry, unlocking its
ultimate form. When you use your Massive Machine feature,
you can choose to become Huge instead of Large. While
you are Huge or larger, your reach for all melee weapons
increases by 5 feet, and you can reduce the damage you
take by an amount equal to 2 + your Intelligence modifier
(minimum 3).

 Shadowsilk Couturier
Your tapestry is far closer to its namesake than most others,
manifesting as a cloak embroidered with razor-sharp blades
and imbued with potent illusion magic. It moves at your
command, twitching, grasping, and cutting at your leisure.
You aren’t entirely sure if it obeys your conscious thoughts
or your subconscious mind, but either way, it is always
watching your back. Raise your hood, or raise your blades.

with this attack, you can choose to force it to make a
Strength saving throw. If it fails, it is pulled to the nearest
open space within 5 feet of you.
Hidden Agenda
At 6th level, your cloak conceals your movements and
distorts your speech at your command. You can choose to
have your speech be incoherent to creatures other than
those you choose. When you take the Dash action, you can
choose to gain the benefits of the Disengage action as well.
Grasping Dark
At 10th level, your tapestry grips the environment around
you, holding you aloft. You gain a climbing speed equal
to your walking speed, and you can move along walls
and ceilings while leaving your hands free. You can have
your Renaissance Regular feature’s stairway or bridge be
invisible.
Shadow Dance
At 14th level, your cloak’s blades tear at the fabric of reality,
opening tiny portals for you to slip through. After you
perform a Weave Finisher, you can teleport up to 15 feet to
a location you can see. Also, whenever you take the Dodge
action and a creature misses an attack targeting you, or a
creature you can see ends its turn, you can use your reaction
to teleport up to 15 feet to a location you can see.

Weave Finishers
As a weaveshaper, you learn to perform special magical
attacks called Weave Finishers.
Your movement during a Weave Finisher does not
provoke opportunity attacks, and you become immune to

one. Attacks made as part of a Weave Finisher do not
generate new arcane strings.

it is restrained until the start of your next turn by massive
barbed chains, and you can teleport to a space within 5
feet of the creature and make one melee attack with your
threadblade. If you hit, your attack deals an extra 4d6
piercing damage.
Higher Tiers: The piercing damage increases by 1d6 per
Weave Tier you possess above 4.
Soul Sever
3 Arcane Strings - prerequisite: 10th level
You make a melee weapon attack with your threadblade.
If you hit, the target must make a Charisma saving throw.
If it fails, you cut into its soul, dealing 5d8 necrotic damage
to the creature and causing it to become frightened of you
until the end of your next turn.
Higher Tiers: The necrotic damage increases by 1d8 per
Weave Tier you possess above 4.
Thread Stripper
3 Arcane Strings - prerequisite: 10th level
You stomp the ground, hurling a creature you can see
within 30 feet of you 10 feet into the air. You then launch
yourself up to 60 feet in the direction of the target and make
a melee attack with your threadblade targeting that creature
during your movement. If you hit, your attack deals an extra
4d4 slashing damage, and you can choose one nonmagical
weapon or shield the creature is holding. The creature
must make a Dexterity saving throw. If it fails, the object is
destroyed and you gain 4d6 temporary hit points.
Higher Tiers: The temporary hit points increase by 1d6
and the slashing damage increases by 1d4 per Weave Tier
you possess above 4.
Omnicleave
3 Arcane Strings - prerequisite: 15th level
You empower your weapon and swing to unleash a scything
wave of force. Each creature within a cone up to 15 feet long
must make a Dexterity saving throw. If a creature fails, it
takes 7d6 slashing damage, or half as much damage on a
success.
Higher Tiers: The maximum area of the cone grows by
5 feet and the slashing damage increases by 1d6 per Weave
Tier you possess above 5.
Shadow Assault
3 Arcane Strings - prerequisite: 15th level
You teleport to a location you can see within 30 feet of you,
hovering there invisibly until the start of your next turn.
If a creature you can see within 30 feet of you takes an
action during this time, you can use your reaction to launch
yourself at that target and make a melee attack with your
threadblade which deals an extra 4d6 slashing damage, after
which your invisibility fades.
Higher Tiers: Your melee attack deals an extra 1d6
slashing damage per Weave Tier you possess above 5.
