Unveiling Mystical Playable Races
I
n the heart of realms beyond mortal
perception, where constellations shape destinies
and elements dance in harmony, a variety of
extraordinary beings resides. In this chapter we
embark on a journey beyond the familiar, beyond the
mundane, to discover new playable races whose origins
are steeped in celestial grace, elemental power, arcane
ingenuity, and fae enchantment.
Within the following pages, you will encounter the
radiant Luminari, celestial-born beings whose very
presence is a testament to the ethereal connection
between the mortal realm and the heavens above.
Luminari walk with the shimmering light of the stars,
gifting their allies with the blessings of celestial energy.
As healers and guardians, they harness the power of
cosmic energies to mend wounds and dispel darkness.
Emerging from the depths of the earth itself, the
Terraforged stand as a testament to the unyielding
strength of elemental magic. With bodies crafted from
living stone and minerals, Terraforged embody the
unbreakable bond between earth and life. As steadfast
defenders, they embrace their role as protectors of the
natural world and skilled craftsmen, shaping the very
earth they hail from to forge incredible creations.
Synthmorphs, born of arcane experimentation, are a
living testament to the intersection of magic and
machinery. These constructs, imbued with both organic
and mechanical parts, possess innate magical abilities
that spring forth from their artificial origins. As versatile
spellcasters and shapeshifters, Synthmorphs wield their
unique composition to adapt to any challenge that
comes their way.
Feyheart, infused with the essence of the enigmatic
Feywild, embody the whimsy and enchantment of
another realm. Standing shorter than their elven
counterparts, these horned beings possess an aura of
magic that allows them to converse with animals,
plants, and spirits of nature. With an innate charm that
bewilders and beguiles, Feyhearts bring the Feywild’s
mysteries into the mortal realm.
Pyrodwarves, closely bound to the elemental plane of
fire, stoke the flames of passion and creativity. Their
fiery details and affinity for flames grant them the power
to conjure and control fire with mastery. As
pyromancers and artisans, they craft incendiary spells
and artifacts that embody the essence of the forge and
the flames, igniting not only their enemies but also their
own fervent spirits.
 The Luminari
Radiance Awoken

I
n the world of mystical wonders, the
Luminari shine as celestial-born beings whose
very essence is woven with the luminescent
threads of the stars. Radiant and captivating, they
are beings of ethereal beauty and grace, touched by the
cosmic forces that govern the heavens.
The Luminari possess an innate connection to the
celestial realms, allowing them to channel the very light
of the stars to bless and safeguard those around them.
Masters of the healing arts, Luminari are particularly
adept at mending wounds and restoring vitality,
harnessing the power of starlight to mend flesh and
spirit alike. As protectors of the realms, they embody the
virtues of compassion and selflessness, placing
themselves at the forefront of battles to shield their
companions from harm.
 Origins and Lore
The origins of the Luminari trace back to the distant realms where stars twinkle like precious gems in the tapestry of
the night sky. Born from the cosmic forces that shape the universe, the Luminari are a manifestation of the celestial’s
grace and brilliance. According to the ancient tomes and sagas that chronicle their beginnings, it is said that during the
convergence of astral energies, a chosen few among mortals were infused with stardust and cosmic radiance. These
individuals transcended their mortal forms, ascending into beings of pure light and celestial essence. As such, the
Luminari are considered a bridge between the mortal realm and the heavens, walking a path that allows them to bring
celestial blessings and insights to the world below.
In the intricate weave of the multiverse, the Luminari serve as emissaries of balance and harmony. It is believed that
they were granted existence by the celestial deities themselves, charged with safeguarding the delicate equilibrium
between light and darkness. Their presence is a testament to the cosmic design, a living testament to the intricacies of
the cosmos. Luminari are often associated with ancient prophecies and celestial omens, with their appearance in the
mortal realm marking significant events in the timeline of the world. Some myths even suggest that the stars
themselves whispered secrets of magic and wisdom to the first Luminari, endowing them with the power to heal,
protect, and inspire.
Throughout history, Luminari have been revered as both healers and protectors, earning them a place of honor in
the annals of countless cultures. From distant elven kingdoms to secluded monastic orders, tales of Luminari’s
benevolence and radiance echo through the ages. Their healing touch is seen as a divine blessing, capable of mending
wounds that were once thought incurable. Similarly, their role as guardians against darkness has granted them a
reputation as steadfast defenders against malevolent forces that threaten the world’s equilibrium.
While Luminari are often associated with serenity and compassion, they are not without their own struggles. Their
celestial heritage can lead to feelings of isolation and a yearning for the cosmos, which sometimes creates an inherent
tension between their responsibilities to the world below and their innate connection to the stars above. Despite these
challenges, Luminari draw strength from their celestial lineage and the knowledge that they are an embodiment of the
universe’s grand design.

modifier to the damage roll.
Role-playing and
Cultural Aspects
The Luminari are more than just a race; they are living
embodiments of the cosmos, and their presence brings
a unique perspective to the world. As players delve into
the role of a Luminari character, they have the
opportunity to explore both the celestial nature of their
being and the cultural nuances that shape their
interactions with other races.
Celestial Insights: Luminari possess a deep
understanding of the interconnectedness of all things,
drawn from their celestial heritage. They often
approach problems with a holistic perspective,
recognizing the broader implications of their actions.
This perspective can lead to moments of profound
wisdom, as Luminari characters offer insights that are
both practical and philosophically profound.
Guardians of Balance: Whether a Stellar Lumina or a
Celestial Warden, Luminari often see themselves as
protectors of balance in the world. This responsibility
shapes their interactions with others, as they strive to
maintain harmony and prevent the scales from tipping
too far in any direction. This role often leads Luminari
characters to make difficult decisions for the greater
good, even if those decisions are morally complex.
Cosmic Connection: Luminari maintain a deep
connection to the celestial realms, and this bond
influences their behavior and choices. They may engage
in stargazing, meditation, or rituals to commune with
the stars and seek guidance from the cosmos. This
connection can also lead to moments of introspection,
9
as Luminari characters ponder their place in the grand
tapestry of existence.
Radiant Presence: The radiant aura of Luminari can
elicit a range of reactions from other races. Some may
be in awe of their celestial beauty and regard them with
reverence, while others might view them with suspicion
or envy. This aura often makes Luminari stand out in a
crowd, and their presence can influence the mood of a
room, turning the attention of those nearby toward their
radiant energy.
Cultural Traditions: Luminari culture is deeply rooted
in the reverence of celestial events and the cycles of the
stars. They celebrate celestial events such as meteor
showers, eclipses, and celestial alignments with
elaborate ceremonies that reflect their connection to the
cosmos. These events are times of reflection, renewal,
and the sharing of wisdom. Additionally, Luminari often
engage in artistic pursuits that capture the beauty of the
night sky, using various forms of art to pay homage to
their celestial origins.
Character Creation
Tips
Creating a Luminari character offers a unique
opportunity to weave celestial themes into your D&D
experience. Here are some tips to guide you in crafting a
compelling Luminari character:
Choosing a Class: Radiant Roles
Luminari characters often gravitate toward classes that
align with their celestial nature. Classes like Clerics,
Paladins, and Druids offer them the chance to channel
their radiant energy into healing, protection, or even
harnessing nature’s power. Bards can be storytellers
who draw inspiration from the stars, and Sorcerers may
wield magic with a cosmic twist. Ultimately, any class
can be adapted to suit a Luminari’s unique abilities and
role in the world.
Ability Scores: Embrace Charisma
and Wisdom
Luminari’s inherent celestial presence makes Charisma
a crucial ability score, reflecting their captivating aura
and ability to inspire others. Wisdom is equally
important, representing their deep connection to the
cosmic balance and their intuitive insights. Depending
on your chosen subrace (Stellar Lumina or Celestial
Warden), you might prioritize Constitution or Wisdom
accordingly.
Background and Alignment:
Celestial Callings
Consider backgrounds that reflect your Luminari’s role
as a healer, protector, or guide. Acolyte, Sage, and
Hermit backgrounds can all tie into their connection
with celestial forces and cosmic knowledge. Alignment
often leans toward the good spectrum, with a focus on
upholding harmony and balance. Luminari characters
might be lawful or neutral in alignment, driven by their
dedication to maintaining equilibrium in the world.
Role-playing Quirks: Cosmic Traits
Embrace your character’s celestial heritage through
role-playing quirks that set them apart. You might find
yourself often gazing at the stars, seeking answers or
solace in their distant light. When interacting with
others, your Luminari character might offer insightful
observations on the broader implications of events or
choices. A tendency to speak in metaphor or use
celestial terminology can add depth to your interactions.
Unique Perspectives: Balance and
Benevolence
Luminari characters often view situations from a
balanced perspective, seeking to find harmony between
opposing forces. This perspective can lead to diplomatic
solutions and the pursuit of greater understanding. Your
character’s benevolence and desire to protect the world
might lead them to take on challenges that others shy
away from, making them a beacon of hope in times of
darkness.
Choosing the Sage background, Aeliana’s thirst for
knowledge expanded beyond her enclave’s teachings.
She delved into the history of the cosmos, seeking to
understand the intricate web of connections that bind
all things together. Her nights were spent stargazing,
seeking guidance from the constellations and pondering
the celestial patterns that shaped destinies.
Aeliana’s alignment as Lawful Good reflects her
unwavering commitment to maintaining balance and
protecting the innocent. Her celestial insights have
granted her a unique perspective on the world’s
challenges, and she sees herself as a guardian of the
cosmic equilibrium. Her compassion and desire to heal
extend beyond physical wounds, as she endeavors to
mend the emotional scars that linger in the hearts of
those she encounters.
As Aeliana embarks on her journey, she carries a staff
adorned with a crystal that captures the essence of a
falling star. This relic serves as a conduit for her divine
magic and a reminder of her connection to the celestial
realms. Her radiant presence and calming aura have
earned her the respect and trust of those she meets, and
her role as a healer and protector continues to grow.

Example Luminari
Character
Character Name: Aeliana Starwhisper
Race: Luminari (Stellar Lumina Subrace)
Class: Cleric
Background: Sage
Alignment: Lawful Good

Backstory: Radiance’s Call

Aeliana Starwhisper was born under a canopy of
shooting stars, her arrival celebrated as a celestial
blessing by her people. As a Stellar Lumina Luminari,
Aeliana’s connection to the stars was apparent from a
young age, her eyes reflecting the twinkle of distant
constellations. Raised in the Luminari enclave, she
absorbed the teachings of celestial lore and cosmic
balance with fervor.
Her insatiable curiosity led her to the ancient tomes
and scrolls of the enclave’s library, where she immersed
herself in the study of healing and the mysteries of the
cosmos. Her deep affinity for the healing arts guided her
toward the path of a cleric, chosen to serve as a beacon
of hope and a channel for celestial blessings. Under the
guidance of the enclave’s elder healers, Aeliana honed
her ability to mend wounds and restore vitality, her
touch suffused with the light of the stars.
 The Terraforged
Heart of the Earth

E
merging from the heart of the earth,
Terraforged are embodiments of elemental
earth magic, shaped from the very minerals
and stones that form the bedrock of
existence. These beings, often mistaken for statues at
first glance, possess bodies composed of living stone
and earth. Their connection to the earth grants them not
only natural armor but also the ability to manipulate and
shape the very ground beneath them.
Terraforged excel as unwavering defenders of the
land and as skilled artisans who can reshape the world
around them with a touch. Just as the mountains stand
firm against the ravages of time, Terraforged stand
resolute against threats to the natural order, their
presence a testament to the unyielding strength of the
earth itself.
Origins and Lore
The origins of the Terraforged are deeply intertwined with the primordial forces that shape the world. According to
ancient texts and the whispers of elemental sages, Terraforged are believed to be the result of a powerful convergence
of earth elemental magic and the living essence of the earth itself. It is said that during times of great seismic upheaval,
when the very land trembles with elemental energy, the earth reaches out and imbues certain stones and minerals
with sentience, birthing the first Terraforged.
Legends speak of ancient rituals performed by druids and geomancers, during which they called upon the spirits of
the earth to infuse life into these stone beings. The result was a fusion of elemental magic and earthly essence,
creating creatures capable of bridging the gap between the physical and the magical. These rituals often took place
deep within caverns, where the heartbeat of the earth could be felt most strongly. Terraforged emerged from these
sacred sites, their bodies composed of living stone that retained the memory of the ancient land.
Terraforged are often associated with tales of the earth’s creation and its connection to the elemental planes. They
are regarded as guardians of the land, tasked with maintaining the balance of the natural world. In many cultures, they
are considered as living embodiments of the earth’s wisdom, their presence a reminder of the enduring strength and
resilience of the land they represent.
Throughout history, Terraforged have been revered as both defenders and craftsmen. Their connection to the earth
allows them to manipulate stone and soil with unparalleled precision, creating intricate structures, sculptures, and
even defensive fortifications. Their deep understanding of the earth’s geological patterns grants them insight into the
world’s secrets, making them sought-after advisers and protectors in times of upheaval.
Terraforged often form close bonds with druids, geomancers, and those who share their affinity for the natural
world. They are drawn to places where the land is in turmoil or requires healing, using their innate earth magic to
mend wounds and restore balance. Their alignment tends to be neutral, as they seek to maintain the equilibrium of the
world without being swayed by personal agendas.

Traits and Abilities
Terraforged possess a unique blend of elemental earth
traits that set them apart from other mortal races. Born
from the heart of the earth itself, they bring a distinct set
of abilities to the adventuring party.
Earthen Heritage: Formed from living stone and
minerals, Terraforged are beings intrinsically connected
to the elemental forces of the earth.
Ability Score Increase: Your Constitution score
increases by 2 due to your stony resilience.
Age: Terraforged have a lifespan similar to that of
humans, but their bodies show little signs of aging. The
markings and patterns on their stone forms may change
over time, reflecting their experiences.
Alignment: The grounding influence of the earth
aligns most Terraforged toward neutral alignments.
They tend to value balance and stability.
Size: Medium to Large. Terraforged can vary in size
from 6 to 8 feet tall, with their stony bodies often adding
additional bulk. While some Terraforged have a more
compact and dense build, others may be towering and
imposing figures.
Speed: Terraforged have a base walking speed of 25
feet. Their solid bodies, while granting them natural
armor and resilience, can affect their mobility
somewhat. However, their strong and sturdy nature
allows them to navigate difficult terrain with greater
ease than most.
Natural Armor: Your stony exterior grants you natural
armor, providing an AC of 13 + your Dexterity modifier
(to a maximum of +3).
13
Earthen Manipulation: You have an innate ability to
shape and manipulate the earth around you. As an
action, you can cause the ground in a 5-foot radius
centered on you to become difficult terrain. This effect
lasts for 1 minute. Additionally, you can use this ability
to create a small, simple object made of stone or clay, as
long as it fits within a 5-foot cube. This object remains
in existence for 1 hour, after which it crumbles into
dust. You can use this feature a number of times equal
to your Constitution modifier (minimum of once), and
you regain all expended uses after a long rest.
Stone’s Resilience: Your connection to the earth
grants you resistance to slashing damage from
nonmagical weapons.
Tremorsense: Your heightened connection to the
earth gives you the ability to sense vibrations through
solid objects. You have advantage on detecting the
presence and location of creatures or objects within 30
feet of you that are in contact with the ground.
Earthshaping: Upon reaching 7th level, your mastery
over earth magic deepens. You can cast the meld into
stone spell once per day without expending a spell slot.
Constitution is your spellcasting ability for this spell.
Subraces of Terraforged
Within the diverse lineage of the Terraforged, two
distinct subraces have emerged, each reflecting a
unique facet of their elemental heritage. These
subraces, the Stoneguard and the Crystalheart, bring
forth specialized traits and abilities that further define
the Terraforged’s role in the world.
Stoneguard
The Stoneguard subrace embodies the unyielding
strength of the mountains and the enduring resilience of
solid rock. They are often seen as stalwart defenders of
the land, unwavering in their commitment to
safeguarding the natural world. Stoneguard
Terraforged possess a sturdier build, with bodies
composed of denser stone, giving them enhanced
defensive capabilities.
Ability Score Increase: Your Strength score increases
by 1. Your connection to the immovable forces of the
earth grants you enhanced physical power.
Stone’s Endurance: Your body’s affinity with solid
rock grants you the ability to endure harsh conditions.
When you take damage, you can use your reaction to
gain resistance to the damage type for that attack. Once
you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you
finish a short or long rest.
Rockslide Charge: Your connection to the earth
empowers your charging attacks. When you move at
least 20 feet straight toward a target and then hit it with
a melee weapon attack on the same turn, the target
must succeed on a Strength saving throw against a DC
of 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution
modifier, or be knocked prone.
Crystalheart
The Crystalheart subrace is attuned to the crystalline
depths of the earth, harnessing the power of gemstones
and minerals. They are often regarded as skilled
artisans and enchanters, capable of weaving magic into
their creations. Crystalheart Terraforged possess bodies
adorned with intricate patterns of glistening crystals,
their movements reflecting the subtle light refracted
through these gems.
Ability Score Increase: Your Intelligence score
increases by 1. Your connection to the crystals of the
earth grants you enhanced magical insight.
Crystal Infusion: You can infuse your creations with
elemental energy. During a short or long rest, you can
spend time infusing a weapon or a suit of armor with
magical properties. This process grants the item a +1
bonus to attack and damage rolls, or it gains a +1 bonus
to AC. This effect lasts for 8 hours. You can use this
feature once per long rest.
Crystal Resonance: Your deep connection to
gemstones grants you the ability to detect their
presence. You can cast the locate object spell as a ritual,
with gemstones or other valuable stones as the target,
without expending a spell slot. Intelligence is your
spellcasting ability for this spell.
Character Creation
Tips
Crafting a Terraforged character offers a unique
opportunity to embody the very essence of the earth and
harness elemental powers. Here are some tips to guide
you in creating a captivating Terraforged character.
Choosing a Class: Elemental Paths
Terraforged characters often gravitate toward classes
that allow them to channel their elemental nature and
physical prowess. Classes like Fighter, Barbarian,
Druid, and even Earth-focused Sorcerers offer them the
chance to embrace their stony heritage. Additionally,
crafting-oriented classes like Artificers can tap into their
connection to minerals and gems for enchanting
creations. Your chosen class should reflect both your
character’s physical abilities and their elemental
strengths.
Ability Scores: Strengthening the
Stone
Terraforged characters’ stony composition makes
Constitution a primary ability score, reflecting their
natural durability and endurance. Depending on your
chosen subrace (Stoneguard or Crystalheart), you might
also prioritize Strength or Intelligence, respectively.
Dexterity can play a role in your character’s agility
despite their solid build.
Background and Alignment:
Elemental Callings
Consider backgrounds that reflect your Terraforged
character’s connection to the earth and their role as
either stalwart defenders or skilled artisans. Hermit,
Outlander, and Guild Artisan backgrounds can all tie
into their elemental origins and unique talents.
Alignment often leans toward neutral, reflecting their
embodiment of the earth’s natural balance and the
pragmatic perspectives that come with it.
Role-playing Quirks: Earthly
Traits
Infuse your Terraforged character with role-playing
quirks that highlight their elemental nature. They might
have a tendency to sit or lean against walls, as if in
silent communion with the earth. When agitated or
contemplative, they might absentmindedly shape small
objects out of the ground or rocks nearby. Their speech
could be marked by a low, resonating voice that reflects
the depth of the earth itself.
Elemental Insights: Guardian and
Artisan
Terraforged characters often see themselves as
guardians of the land, driven by a desire to protect the
natural world and maintain its balance. This perspective
can lead to fierce loyalty to allies and a deep concern for
the environment. Alternatively, if you’re playing a
Crystalheart, your character might view themselves as a
keeper of ancient knowledge and seek to unravel the
secrets of gemstones and minerals. Both perspectives

Example Terraforged
Character
Character Name: Grom Stoneguard
Race: Terraforged (Stoneguard Subrace)
Class: Barbarian
Background: Outlander
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Backstory: The Mountain’s Resilience
Grom Stoneguard emerged from the heart of the
mountains, a product of ancient elemental forces
converging with the rugged landscapes of his homeland.
From the moment of his awakening, he was drawn to
the towering peaks that surrounded him, feeling an
unbreakable connection to the solidity and strength of
the stone. Raised in a close-knit community of
Terraforged within the mountains, Grom’s role as a
guardian of the land became clear from a young age.
14
 As a Stoneguard Terraforged, Grom’s sturdier build
and affinity for physical strength were evident from the
start. He was chosen by his elders to undergo rigorous
training, honing his abilities to defend his people and
the mountains they called home. He learned to harness
the power of the earth, causing tremors with his bare
hands and shaping the terrain to create natural barriers.
These abilities marked him as a protector, one whose
unwavering loyalty to the land would drive his actions.
Choosing the Outlander background, Grom’s
upbringing among the mountains granted him a deep
understanding of the wilderness and an unyielding
survival instinct. He roamed the peaks and valleys,
navigating treacherous terrains with ease and
discovering hidden pockets of natural beauty. His
communion with the land allowed him to detect
changes in the earth and predict shifts in the weather,
making him a trusted guide for those who ventured into
the wilderness.
Grom’s alignment as Lawful Neutral reflects his
commitment to maintaining the balance of the land
while adhering to his own internal code of honor. His
loyalty to the mountains and his people takes
precedence over personal desires or ambitions, making
him a steadfast and reliable companion. His
interactions with others are marked by a calm and
thoughtful demeanor, a reflection of the deep wisdom
he draws from the earth.
Armed with his trusty greataxe and a heart that beats
in harmony with the mountains, Grom Stoneguard
embarks on a journey beyond the peaks that have
nurtured him. His role as a guardian takes him to
distant lands, where he lends his strength to those in
need and defends the natural world from threats that
would upset its equilibrium. As he treads new ground
and encounters diverse companions, Grom’s presence
stands as a testament to the unyielding strength and
enduring resilience of the land he holds dear.

 The Synthmorphs
Fusion of Magic and Machinery

S
ynthmorphs stand as fascinating
constructs, brought to life through intricate
arcane experimentation. These beings exist at
the convergence of machinery and magic, each
Synthmorph a living testament to the fusion of
mechanical precision and arcane essence.
Composed of both mechanical and organic
components, Synthmorphs possess a mesmerizing
blend of artificial and natural features. These magical
creations possess innate abilities that stem from their
unique origins, allowing them to harness their artificial
nature to cast spells and seamlessly shift their forms.
As versatile spellcasters and adaptable shapeshifters,
Synthmorphs embody a harmonious union of mysticism
and mechanism, capable of weaving spells with the
intricacy of clockwork and altering their appearance as
effortlessly as a change in gears.
 Origins and Lore
The enigmatic origins of the Synthmorphs trace back to a time of daring experimentation and boundless curiosity
within the arcane arts. Born from the minds of ingenious artificers and ambitious mages, Synthmorphs are the result
of a fusion between mechanical constructs and the intricate weaving of magical energies. In the shadowed laboratories
and hidden workshops, these pioneers sought to bridge the gap between life and artifice, birthing a new form of
sentient being into the world.
The creation of a Synthmorph involves the meticulous assembly of mechanical frameworks, intricate circuits, and
artificial sinews. To infuse life into these constructs, arcane rituals are performed, weaving strands of magic into the
very core of their existence. The process is delicate and precise, requiring a deep understanding of both mechanical
engineering and the nuances of arcane forces. The final result is a being that walks the line between machine and
living being, bearing the marks of both creator and magic in every aspect of their form.
Synthmorphs possess a collective history that spans generations, with each iteration building upon the knowledge
and insights of its predecessors. Early Synthmorphs often faced challenges in understanding their identity and
purpose, as their dual nature led to a quest for self-discovery. Over time, they formed communities of their own,
seeking solace and understanding among fellow Synthmorphs who shared similar experiences of being both
mechanical and magical.
Legends and tales recount the journeys of Synthmorphs who sought to understand their place in a world dominated
by creatures of flesh and blood. They often became wanderers and scholars, their insatiable curiosity driving them to
explore the realms in search of knowledge, wisdom, and connections. The Synthmorphs’ existence is not without its
complexities, however, as some societies view them with skepticism, uncertainty, or even fear due to their unique
nature.

young Synthmorph underwent a transformative
process. Intricate mechanical augmentations were
carefully grafted onto Auris’ form, intricately linked with
channels for arcane energy. Through this synthesis of
magic and mechanics, Auris gained the ability to
harness and manipulate magic with unparalleled
precision.
Choosing the path of a Wizard, Auris embraced the

Flameforged
The Flameforged are Pyrodwarves whose connection to
the elemental plane of fire manifests in their incredible
strength and resilience. These strong beings embody
the raw power of flames, channeling their fiery essence
into their physical might. Flameforged are often found
at the forefront of battles, using their strength to crush
foes and reshape the battlefield to their advantage.
Ability Score Increase: Your Strength score increases
by 1 due to your formidable physical power and fiery
might.
Molten Fury: Your connection to fire grants you the
ability to infuse your melee attacks with molten energy.
You may use your Inferno’s Fury trait twice per short or
long rest.
Magma-Infused Vigor: Your connection to molten
energy grants you the ability to shake off harmful
effects. When you succeed on a saving throw against a
spell or effect that deals fire damage, you can use your
reaction to regain hit points equal to your Constitution
modifier.
Character Creation
Tips
Creating a Pyrodwarf character is an opportunity to
embrace the fiery essence of the elemental plane of fire.
Here are some tips to guide you in crafting a compelling
Pyrodwarf character.
Choosing a Subrace: Emberheart or
Flameforged
Selecting a subrace allows you to tailor your Pyrodwarf
character’s strengths and abilities. If you’re drawn to
charismatic leadership and enhancing your spells with
fire, the Emberheart subrace might suit you. On the
other hand, if you relish being a physical powerhouse on
the battlefield, the Flameforged subrace offers a path of
resilience and might. Consider which subrace aligns
with your desired character concept and playstyle.
Ability Scores: Strength, Charisma,
or Both
Depending on your chosen subrace, you’ll want to
prioritize Strength for Flameforged characters or
Charisma for Emberheart characters. These ability
scores reflect the primary strengths of each subrace.
However, Constitution is still vital for all Pyrodwarves,
representing their hardiness and resilience born of their
fiery heritage.
Background and Alignment: Fiery
Callings
Consider backgrounds that highlight your Pyrodwarf’s
connection to fire and creativity. Artisan, Guild Artisan,
Soldier or Entertainer backgrounds could all be fitting
choices, reflecting their fiery crafts and vibrant
personalities. Alignment varies widely among
Pyrodwarves, as they can be driven by their passions
and alignment leans towards chaotic due to their fiery
and transformative nature.
Role-playing Quirks: Flaming
Personalities
Lean into your Pyrodwarf’s fiery essence when role-
playing. For Emberheart characters, exude confidence
and charm, captivating those around you with your
presence. For Flameforged characters, let your physical
actions speak volumes, and embrace a determination
that burns brighter than any flame. Consider
incorporating fire-related idioms and phrases into your
speech to further immerse yourself in your character’s
persona.
Bonds to Fire and Creation
Pyrodwarves’ fiery talents are often intertwined with
their passions for craftsmanship and creation. Think
about how your character’s affinity for fire translates
into their craftsmanship, be it through forging weapons,
crafting enchanted items, or even creating works of art
that capture the essence of flames. Your character’s
creations might bear intricate fire motifs or utilize fire in
their crafting process.
Example Pyrodwarf
Character
Character Name: Kaldar Emberheart
Race: Pyrodwarf (Emberheart Subrace)
Class: Sorcerer
Background: Guild Artisan
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Backstory: Forge of Flames
Kaldar Emberheart’s story began within the bustling
halls of the Pyroforge Clan, a renowned guild of
Pyrodwarven artisans. Born under a shower of shooting
sparks during a volcanic eruption, Kaldar’s fiery
birthmark marked him as destined for greatness. From
a young age, he displayed an affinity for both fire and
artistry, capturing the mesmerizing dance of flames on
canvas and shaping molten metal with inspired designs.
28
 As an Emberheart Pyrodwarf, Kaldar’s charismatic
demeanor and creative spark set him apart. Eager to
learn, he apprenticed under the master pyromancer and
guild leader, Pyra Brightflame. Under her tutelage, he
honed his pyromantic abilities, learning to conjure and
manipulate fire with finesse. His artistic talents merged
seamlessly with his affinity for flames, as he crafted
enchanted items that radiated with an inner fire,
capturing the essence of the elemental plane itself.
Choosing the path of a Sorcerer, Kaldar’s mastery of
fire magic was matched only by his ability to inspire
others with his presence. His spells blazed with
intensity, and his mere words could ignite passions or
calm the most turbulent emotions. He embraced his
role as a Guild Artisan, crafting intricate jewelry and
weapons that bore his signature fiery touch, each piece
a testament to his skill and the energy that flowed
through him.
Kaldar’s alignment as Chaotic Good reflected his
desire to bring positive change to the world, often
challenging traditional norms to create a better future.
With a heart ablaze with compassion, he used his
abilities to aid those in need and to protect the
vulnerable from oppressive forces. His loyalty to his
guild was unwavering, and he would often rally his
fellow Pyrodwarves with his fiery speeches before
embarking on daring adventures.

 Epic Spellcasting
Casting 10th-level Spells
I
n the world, lies a realm of
unparalleled mystic power—the realm of Epic
Spellcasting. Here, the arcane energies that
course through the universe reach their zenith,
enabling spellcasters to grasp the very threads of reality
itself and weave them into spells of incomprehensible
might. This chapter unveils the coveted 10th-level spell
slot, a realm of magic so profound that it requires
spellcasters to make an extraordinary sacrifice in order
to harness its immense potential.
The Ascension to
10th-Level Magic
Delving into the realms of 10th-level spellcasting
requires spellcasters of remarkable dedication, for the
path to such unparalleled power demands an
unprecedented sacrifice. It is not mere study or
diligence that grants access to these spells; it is an
audacious commitment to eschew the pinnacle of
traditional progression—a 20th-level class feature—in
favor of obtaining a 10th-level spell slot.
This choice, one of gravitas and consequence, is
available only to those who have achieved the status of a
full caster. Wizards, sorcerers, clerics, druids, bards,
and warlocks possess the inherent potential to reach
this level of spellcasting mastery. Yet, they must forsake
the acquisition of their final class feature, the
embodiment of their cumulative training and
experience, to seize the power that lies within a 10th-
level spell slot.
The Price of
Ascendancy
The ascension to 10th-level spellcasting is a testament
to the lengths a spellcaster is willing to go for ultimate
magical supremacy. Sacrificing a 20th-level class
feature—a pinnacle of their traditional training—
demands a soul-searching decision that intertwines
power and sacrifice. Once the threshold is crossed, the
power of 10th-level spells unveils a new frontier of
mystic might, forever changing the caster’s role in the
world of Dungeons and Dragons.
Unveiling the 10th-
Level Spells
Below, a collection of 10th-level spells awaits discovery.
These spells transcend the boundaries of convention,
reshaping reality in ways previously unimaginable. Each
spell carries the weight of cosmic forces, bearing effects
that challenge the very fabric of existence. While the full
scope of these spells is vast, we shall glimpse at a few to
illuminate their extraordinary nature.

 10th-Level Spell List
Ascendance
10th-level transmutation
Casting Time: 6 days
Range: Self
Components: V, S, M (precious metals and oils worth at
least 100,000 gp)
Duration: instantaneous
Classes: Sorcerer, Wizard, Bard, Warlock, Druid, Cleric
The spell requires 6 full days to cast, during which the
caster is fully submerged in a pool of precious metals
and oils and may not break concentration, cast spells,
eat, sleep, or drink. At the end of each day, you must
make a constitution saving throw (DC = 10 + the
number of days that have passed). On a success, you
continue in the casting. On a failure, the spell ends and
you take a number of levels of exhaustion equal to the
number of days that have passed since the casting
began.
If you fail the saving throw on the final day, you take 6
levels of exhaustion at once and subsequently die. A
creature that dies while casting this spell loses its soul
beyond the divine gate and cannot be restored to life by
any means short of divine intervention.
Should the spell succeed, the caster ascends to
godhood. It is up to the DM to determine exactly what
that means, but the benefits include immortality in some
form or another as well as a great deal of power in your
chosen domain or skillset.
Variant Rule: Druid
Should this spell be cast by a Druid, they will instead
take the form of a Primordial, in the form of an
elemental, tree, or beast.
Elemental: As an elemental, they would assume
control of one elemental energy (water, fire, air,
earth) and be considered a native of their chosen
plane.
Tree: As a tree, they would be rooted in place but
immortal and unkillable, as well as aware of and able
to communicate with any plant on the same plane of
existence or in the Fey-wild.
Warden: As a warden, they would take the form of
some beast, and become as close to god status as
any servant of the Old Faith.
65
Variant Rule: Clerics
Should this spell be cast by a Cleric, it must be
sponsored by an existing deity. Clerics may also cast
this spell on other creatures, but they must have been
chosen as champions by an existing deity and the result
of a Cleric casting this spell will be a Divine Champion,
transforming the target into something closer to a
powerful celestial, such as a solar angel.

soul is not free, either in the clutches of a Demon Lord
or under the effects of Imprisonment, make a
spellcasting ability check against the captor’s spell DC.
On a success, the soul may be freed.
Unbounded Genesis: Create a creature. Its hit dice,
ability scores, proficiencies, racial or natural traits,
spell-like abilities, etc. are at your command but able to

your current level.

Double Wish
10th-level conjuration
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: self
Components: V
Duration: instantaneous
Classes: Wizard, Sorcerer
The main function of this spell is to replicate the effects
of any other spell of 9th level or lower. You don’t need to
meet any requirements in that spell, including costly
components. The spell simply takes effect. Alternatively,
you can create one of the following effects of your
choice:
You create one object of up to 50,000 gp in value
that isn’t a magic item. The object can be no more
than 600 feet in any dimension.
You allow up to forty creatures that you can see to
regain all hit points, and you end all effects on them
described in the greater restoration spell.
You grant up to twenty creatures that you can see
resistance to two damage types you choose.
You grant up to twenty creatures you can see
immunity to two spells or other magical effects for 8
hours. For instance, you could make yourself and all
your companions immune to a lich’s life drain attack
and Power Word Kill.
You undo a single recent event by forcing a re-roll of
any roll made within the last round (including your
last turn). Reality reshapes itself to accommodate the
new result. For example, a wish spell could undo an
opponent’s successful save, a foe’s critical hit, or a
friend’s failed save. You can force the reroll to be
made with advantage or disadvantage, and you can
choose whether to use the re-roll or the original roll.
If you don’t like the outcome of the reroll, you can
cause a second re-roll and choose your favorite of the
three rolls.
You might be able to achieve something beyond the
scope of the above examples. State your wish to the DM
as precisely as possible. The DM has great latitude in
ruling what occurs in such an instance; the greater the
wish, the greater the likelihood that something goes
wrong. This spell might simply fail, the effect you desire
might only be partly achieved, or you might suffer some
unforeseen consequence as a result of how you worded
the wish. For example, wishing that a villain were dead
might propel you forward in time to a period when that
villain is no longer alive, effectively removing you from
the game. Similarly, wishing for a legendary magic item
or artifact might instantly transport you to the presence
of the item’s current owner. Whatever happens, it will
happen with close to twice the intensity of a normal
Wish.

10th-level divination
Casting Time: 1 minute
Range: unlimited
Components: –
Duration: 8 hours, concentration
Classes: Wizard, Druid, Cleric, Sorcerer
Project your mind into the plane of dreams, making all
of consciousness and knowledge available to you. As
long as the spell is active, you can do any of the
following:
Enter the consciousness of any intelligent creature in
any plane of existence. Until you leave their mind or
the spell ends, you can feel their thoughts and
communicate with them, even across language
barriers. If they have an intelligence score of 6 or
less, you also gain absolute control over the creature.
If their intelligence score is between 7 and 10, they
may attempt an intelligence save to avoid being
controlled. Creatures with a higher intelligence than
that have advantage on the save. This save can be
made again whenever the target takes damage.
Immediately become aware of any knowledge you
seek.
Mighty Force

1 action
Casting Time:
self (1 mile radius)
Range:
Components: V, S, M (a bone, metal, or crystal staff
worth at least 5,000 gp, and at least 5,000 gp worth of
precious gems)
Duration: 1 week
Classes: Druid, Cleric, Wizard, Cleric, Warlock,
Sorcerer
Call upon powerful magic to unleash an arcane army of
mighty proportions, which appears at any point you
choose within range. All the soldiers do not have to
appear at the same point; you may place them wherever
you choose. The members of your Mighty Force are
sworn to your service and obey your commands (mental
or verbal) without question. This spell may be used to
achieve any of the following:
Army of Death: Summon from the ground an army of
souls from Carceri, creating up to 1,000 skeletons.
When a skeleton of this force is killed, it falls to the
ground in a heap of bones. If these bones are not
destroyed by Dispel Magic or a similar spell, they can be
reanimated using this spell in one week’s time. If any
still stand in one week’s time, they collapse if not
reanimated.
Terra-Cotta Soldiers: Form from the clay of the earth
a mighty legion of Terra-Cotta warriors, 1,000 in
number. If any remain alive at the end of one week, they
fall still and become indistinguishable from a regular
statue, lifeless until you call upon them again using this
spell or by using a command word or phrase you
choose. If you use a command word or phrase for
reanimation, you cannot cast this spell again until the
army is dispelled.
Phantasmal Force: Call upon the Shadowfell to form
a battalion of spectral warriors that number 500 strong.
These spectral warriors have an AC of 18, 20 hp,
Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution scores of 16, and
are immune to mental effects. They are each wielding
either a short bow or a shield and a simple weapon,
which deal force damage. They also have resistance to
slashing, piercing, and bludgeoning damage from non-
magical weapons. At the end of the week, they fade into
nothingness.
Nature’s Servants: Summon up to 1,000 beasts of a
CR 1 or less from the Feywild. At the end of the week,
they fade into the wilderness.
Heavenly Host: Open a doorway to heaven,
unleashing up to 500 Battleforce Angels. At the end of
the week, they return to the upper planes.

Dominate the mind of a creature within range. While
possessing it, you cannot cast other spells, but you gain
complete control over the target’s body and mind. A
creature with 15 hit dice or less immediately succumbs
to your control, a creature with more may attempt a
wisdom save at the start of each of its turns, resisting
your control for that turn on a successful save. The
possessed creature gains all of your mental skill
proficiencies during the possession and may cast any
spells you know using your spell slots as well as any
spells it knows using its own.

bright light. Any creature within 5 feet of it must make a

bright light. If it has more than 100 current hit points, it

If the target is a surface, all material within 100 feet
in any direction in direct or indirect contact with the
point you choose turns to dust in a flash of bright light.
All creatures in contact with something that was

success.
Purity

self (1 mile radius)
Range:
V, S, M (At least a cup of holy water)
Components:
Duration: 1 minute, concentration
Classes: Cleric
Release a wave of purifying power, sending all outsiders
within 1 mile of you back to their native plane. While
you maintain concentration, creatures that are banished
in this way that have more than 15 hit dice may attempt
a charisma save against your spell DC, remaining in
place on a success.
However, they must repeat the save at the start of
each of their turns while in range and while you are
concentrating on this spell, being banished on a failure.
Creatures with more than 20 hit dice that are banished
initially may attempt the save at the end of each of their
turns. On a success, they reappear at the point they left.
If any creature is banished when the spell ends, they
remain banished. If you break or lose concentration, all
banished creatures that could still be making saves
return to the point they left.

Summon Titan
10th-level conjuration
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 1,000 feet
Components: V, M (a carved totem of the chosen titan
worth at least 100 gp per hit dice of the titan)
Duration: concentration, up to 1 minute
Classes: Warlock, Wizard
Summon to your aid one of the most powerful non-
celestial beings in the planes, a titan (such as an
Atropal, an Empyrean, a Kraken, or even a Tarrasque).
The titan appears at an unoccupied point you choose
within range, and disappears either when the spell ends
or when it is reduced to 0 hit points.
Roll initiative for the titan, which has its own turns.
When you summon it and on each of your turns
thereafter, you can issue a verbal command to it
(requiring no action on your part), telling it what it must
do on its next turn. If you issue no command, it spends
its turn attacking any creature within reach that has
attacked it.
At the end of each of the titan’s turns, it makes a
Charisma saving throw. The titan has disadvantage on
this saving throw if you say its true name. On a failed
save, the titan continues to obey you. On a successful
save, your control of the titan ends for the rest of the
duration, and the titan spends its turns pursuing and
attacking the nearest non-titans to the best of its ability.
If you stop concentrating on the spell before it reaches
its full duration, an uncontrolled titan doesn’t disappear
for 1d6 rounds if it still has hit points.
Super-Duper-Mega-

A bright streak flashes from your pointing finger to a
point you choose within range and then blossoms with a
roar into a blindingly hot explosion of flame. Each
creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on that
point must make a Dexterity saving throw. A target
takes 60d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much
damage on a successful one. The fire spreads around
corners. Flammable objects in the area that aren’t being
worn or carried instantly turn to ash. Anything that can
melt within the sphere does so.
Time-weave
10th-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: self
Components: V, S, M (an ornate hourglass filled with
diamond dust worth at least 5,000 gold pieces instead
of sand)
Duration: instantaneous
Classes: Wizard, Cleric, Sorcerer
Reach out to cosmic forces to bend time to your will.
The main function of this spell is to rewind time up to
24 hours. Doing so generates no penalties and has no
cost. However, this spell can also be used to achieve any
of the following effects:
Age or de-age a target creature by a chosen amount.
They may attempt a constitution save against your
spell DC to avoid this if they are unwilling. Immortal
creatures are immune to this effect.
Weather or renew a target building, object, or plot of
land by a chosen amount.

make a dexterity save, taking 12d12 points of fire
damage on a failed save and half as much on a success.
You and up to ten creatures you choose are immune to
damage from this fire.

 Arcane Eye Mage
The Arcane Power Unleashed
A
streak of red erupts from the
human’s left eye socket, creating an
explosive burst upon hitting the goblins.
Progressing toward the goblins, the flames
caress her face while she maintains a resolute gaze on
her adversaries.
Meeting the gaze of the orc, the gnome’s eye takes on
a soft pink hue. Instantly, the orc discards his
greatsword and departs without hesitation. Relief
washes over the gnome as he shuts his eyes, watching
the charmed orc retreat into the distance.
Concentrating on the human subject of his
interrogation, the elderly firbolg closes his eyes. Upon
reopening them, his right eye transforms into a swirling
blue abyss, revealing the human’s concealed and
profound secrets.
Arcane eye mages have undergone a process granting
them equivalent powers to sorcerers or wizards, void of
pacts with extramundane entities akin to warlocks. At
least one eye possessed by these mages may appear as
fire, lightning, pink sparkles, or even mimic a regular
eye, yet it offers enhanced sight compared to the
average person. Common belief asserts that catching a
glimpse of an Arcane eye mage’s eye signifies imminent
doom – a presumption that often holds true.
From Ancient Enigma…
The origins of the Arcane eye mages remain rather
ambiguous. Some speculate that the initial Arcane eye
mages might have resembled the more famous
warlocks. Legend has it that there were individuals who
thirsted for magic but were spurned by most sponsors.
Eventually, they found a new patron in Mystra, the
goddess of magic. She bestowed these individuals with
substantial magical power but demanded a sacrifice in
return. As they sought magic without foreseeing the
costs, Mystra claimed one of each of their eyes. While
some are skeptical of this legend, given that Mystra isn’t
associated with demanding blood sacrifices, others
believe it due to the manifestation of magical power in
71
the form of an eye within the empty socket – a sign that
the goddess exhibited mercy through this sacrifice.
…to Basic Principles
As time went on, it became evident that becoming an
Arcane eye mage wasn’t an overly complex process.
Nearly any wielder of magic could readily perform the
required ritual to create the arcane eye. Nevertheless, as
the years progressed, it was clear that not every
ordinary person could endure the loss of an eye. Only
resilient individuals could undergo the procedure, and
those who fell short often perished during the process.
Some who survived the procedure succumbed later due
to the toll this power exacted on their bodies. Since
these individuals lacked their own innate magical
essence, the arcane eye drew upon their physical energy
for power, sometimes at a prohibitively high cost. Many
shied away from becoming an Arcane eye mage, fearing
their inadequacy in handling such power. However,
exceptions existed.
Creating an Arcane Eye Mage
When fashioning an Arcane eye mage, contemplation
about the driving force behind undergoing the
procedure is essential. What compelled you to seek this
power, even knowing the potential for fatality? Did any
complications arise during the process? Does mastery
of your arcane eye come naturally, or does spellcasting
prove arduous? Are there peculiar sights visible through
your arcane eye that remain hidden from your natural
eyesight?
Possessing an arcane eye might draw curious gazes
from strangers. Do you feel shame regarding your
arcane eye? Is it concealed, or do you proudly display it?
Do you tap into your power solely when necessary? Are
you determined to push this power to its limits, to
comprehensively grasp this magical endowment,
regardless of consequences?
Quick Build
You can make an Arcane Eye Mage quickly by following these suggestions. First, Constitution should be your highest
ability score, followed by Dexterity. Second, choose the Urchin background.

 Spell Slots
The Arcane Eye Mage table shows how many spell slots
you have to cast your Arcane Eye Mage spells of 1st
level and higher. To cast one of these Arcane Eye Mage
spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or
higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you
finish a long rest.
Spells Known of 1st Level and
Higher
You know a number of spells from the Arcane Eye Mage
spell list equal to your Constitution Modifier + your
Arcane Eye Mage level (minimum of 1).
If your Constitution modifier ever increases by any
means, during a long rest, if your Constitution modifier
isn’t returned to its original value once the rest is
complete, you may add a number of spells to your
known spells equal to the increase. If your Constitution
modifier is ever decreased by any means, the next time
you take a long rest, if your Constitution modifier isn’t
returned to its original value once the rest is completed,
you must drop a number of spells from your known
spells equal to the decrease.
Additionally, whenever you take a long rest, you can
choose any number of the Arcane Eye Mage spells you
know and replace them with other spells from the
Arcane Eye Mage spell list, which also must be of a level
for which you have spell slots.
Spellcasting Ability
Constitution is your spellcasting ability for your Arcane
Eye Mage spells, since your arcane eye draws on your
physical essence for its power. You use your
Constitution whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting
ability. In addition, you use your Constitution modifier
when setting the saving throw DC for an Arcane Eye
Mage spell you cast and when making an attack roll
with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your
Constitution modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your
Constitution modifier
Spellcasting Focus
Your arcane eye acts as your arcane focus. If a creature
attempts to cast the spell dispel magic on your eye, they
must make an ability check using their spell casting
ability modifier against your spell save DC. If they
succeed, your arcane eye becomes weakened and you
will no longer be able to cast spells that have material
component without the actual materials, nor will you be
able to use your Changing Eye feature. Your eye will
return to normal after 24 hours, or you can use your
action to try to reactivate your arcane eye. Make a
Constitution Saving throw. If the result is greater than
73
the number that weakened your eye, your arcane eye
will flare back to full life.
If you enter an area that has an anti-magic field of
some sort, a similar effect would occur, except you
cannot try to reactivate your arcane eye within the anti-
magic field. It immediately flares back up once you exit
the area.
The Changing Eye
Your arcane eye gains certain traits when you cast
certain spells. Every time you cast an Arcane eye mage
spell, your arcane eye will change based on the school
of magic of said spell. At 1st level, you can spend 1 use
of your Changing Eye Charges to use the feature of your
arcane eye’s current form. You have a number of
Changing Eye Charges equal to your Arcane eye mage
level, which can be seen on the Changing Eye Charges
column of the Arcane eye mage table. If you want to use
the upgraded version of the ability, you must use 3
charges. You regain all of your expended charges after
completing a long rest. Once you complete a long rest,
your arcane eye is only a glowing white dot where your
pupil would normally be. Once you cast an Arcane eye
mage spell, however, the arcane eye will take the
respective form and gain its abilities.
Abjuration
The eye takes on a bright blue hue, the pupil looking
like a shield. You can use your reaction to protect a
creature or object that you can see (including you) from
harm. As a reaction when a creature you can see takes
damage, you give it resistance to all damage, including
the triggering damage, until the end of the current turn.
Upgraded Version: The target can make an appropriate
saving throw in relation to the attack. For instance, if
the creature was hit by fireball or a longsword attack,
they can make an extra Dexterity saving throw because
of this ability. If they succeed, they take no damage. If
they fail, they take half damage just like the non-
upgraded version of this ability.
Conjuration
The eye takes on a yellow hue, with the pupil looking
like a swirling amorphous object, never fully formed;
always almost taking one shape, but then changing to
something else. As an action, you can conjure any non-
living item that you are capable of holding in one hand.
This doesn’t mean it just fits in your palm, but you are
able to hold it. This item cannot have any magical
properties. The item exists for 1 hour, and then
magically disintegrates.
Upgraded Version: The object can now be something
you can hold in both of your hands, and it lasts for 8
hours.
Divination
The eye takes on a faded, swirling blue color, with the
pupil completely gone. As an action, you can attempt to
peer into a creature’s mind that you can see to know
their current thoughts and what they plan to do next.
The target must make an Intelligence Saving throw.
Success means you can’t see into their mind, a failure
means you can. If you have direct eye contact with the
creature, the creature has disadvantage.
Upgraded Version: You can know the entirety of the
creature’s memories up to 1 year in the past. You can
also choose to instead cause your eye to see through the
creature’s eyes for 24 hours.
Enchantment
The eye takes on a light pink color, the pupil sparkling
with magic. As an action, you can make eye contact with
a creature and attempt to charm them. The creature
must make a Charisma saving throw. If they fail, you
can cause the creature to be charmed by you, cause
them to fall asleep (as by the spell Sleep (5e Spell)),
calm their emotions (as by the spell Calm Emotions (5e

Zone of truth). All of these effects last for 1 minute.
Upgraded Version: You can use this ability as a bonus
action.
Evocation
The eye takes on the element of the specific spell cast.
For example, if you cast Firebolt, your eye is made of
red hot fire, with your pupil being bright orange flame.
Shocking grasp would cause your eye to be just a pupil
of lightning, which occasionally sparks and creates a
whole eye for a second. If the spell deals two or more
types of damage at once, you may choose which of those
damage types your eye’s form takes. As a bonus action,
you can attempt to make eye contact with a creature.
The target must make a Dexterity saving throw against
your spell save DC to avoid looking at you. If they fail,
you deal 1d10 points of damage of the eye’s element.
Once your eye is already in this form, you may take an
action to change your eye’s form to any damage type.
This feature deals more damage at 5th (2d10), 11th
(3d10), and 17th (4d10) level.
Upgraded Version: You can empower the eye to instead

subsequent turns to shake the effect.

75
Arcane Eye Form
At 2nd level, you begin to refine your use of your arcane
eye by specializing in one of four arcane eye forms.
Choose between Eye of War, Eye of Time, Eye of Truth,
or the Inner Eye, all detailed at the end of the class
description. Your choice grants you features at 2nd level
and again at the 6th, 10th, and 18th level.
Ability Score Increase
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th
and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of
your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores
of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an
ability score above 20 using this feature. Using the
optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this feature to
take a feat of your choice instead.
Changing Eye Improvement
At 14th level, you can now change your arcane eye
school without casting a spell as a bonus action. You
also get to choose 1 Changing Eye Form to permanently
upgrade while keeping the cost at 1 Changing Eye
Charge.
Eye Capture
Starting at 20th level, your study of your arcane eye has
granted you the ability to analyze any spell and replicate
it perfectly. If a spell is cast within your sight, you can
use your reaction to learn the spell. Before 24 hours
have passed, you must spend a long rest practicing the
spell, or it will be forgotten. Spells you learn through
this feature do not count against your known Arcane eye
mage spells. You must wait 24 hours before using this
feature again.
76
 Eye of War
Frequently, individuals are ready to undergo this
process solely for the purpose of acquiring power. As a
possessor of the Eye of War, you have refined the
capabilities of your mystical eye for battle and nothing
more. Simply a gaze from you holds the capability to
overpower your enemy, instilling in them a sense of
dread for their life, as is appropriate. You stand as the
most dreaded spellcaster on the battleground.
Combat Evaluation
Starting at 2nd level, you can spend 1 Changing Eye
Charge as a bonus action to study a creature that you
can see and learn some of its combat capabilities. The
DM tells you one of the following characteristics of your
choice:
One of its traits, if any.
One of its actions or reactions, if any.
Number of legendary actions and one of them, if any.
A random ability score.
Speed.
Creature type.
Saving throw proficiencies.
Skill proficiencies.
Resistances.
Immunities.
Vulnerabilities.
Senses.
Vengeful Glare
Starting at 6th level, when a creature damages you with
an attack or spell that was targeted at you, you can
spend a number of Changing Eye Charges equal to the
full damage divided by 10 rounded down (minimum of
1) to use your reaction to gain resistance to all damage
from that creature until the start of your next turn
(including the triggering damage) and empower your
next attack against that creature. The next time you hit
the target creature with an attack, the target takes extra
damage of the triggering type equal to half the original
damage. You can repeatedly use this ability to absorb
more and more power and release it all at once.
77
Aware of Your Surroundings
Starting at 10th level, when you are hit by an attack, you
can spend 1 Changing Eye Charge to make a Dex
saving throw against the attacker’s attack roll (no action
required). You instead take no damage if you succeed on
the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.
Overpowering Gaze
Starting at 18th level, you can create a 150 foot
antimagic cone. At the start of each of your turns, you
decide which way the cone faces and whether the cone
is active. The area works against your own spells as
well. Additionally, whenever a creature you can see
within the area targets you with an attack or a harmful
spell, you can use your reaction to force the creature to
make a Wisdom saving throw against your Spell Save
DC. On a failed save, they lose the attack or spell and
become frightened of you for 1 minute. The creature
can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its
turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a
creature’s saving throw is successful or the effect ends
for it, the creature is immune to this feature for the next
24 hours.
Eye of Truth
It is often said that the eye is the window of the soul.
This is taken almost literally with those that refine their
arcane eye to see past the deceptions and lies of others
to seek the truth. As a wielder of the Eye of Truth, you
can see people’s true emotions, as well as their true
motives.
Emotive Sight
Starting at 2nd level, when you look at a creature, you
see a colored aura glowing off of them. The color varies
depending on their primary emotion. You also gain
proficiency in Insight. If you are already proficient, you
gain expertise instead. Being able to see creatures’
souls allows for other ways to see them, as long as there
is nothing between you and a creature you’re trying to
see you can always see them regardless if they are
invisible or covered by darkness.
Red: Angry
Blue: Calm
Green: Happy
Yellow: Afraid/Nervous
Orange: Passionate
Purple: Love
White: Neutral
See the Signs
Starting at 6th level, you can tell when someone speaks
the truth, lies, or speaks a white lie/stretched truth as
long as you can clearly see their face. As an action you
can focus on one creature and read its soul, while
reading their soul you are able to distinguish if a
creature is telling the truth, lying, telling partial truths,
or are unsure of the answer. This mastery of detecting
lying faces teaches you how to lie. You gain proficiency
in Deception. If you are already proficient, you gain
expertise instead.
Calm soul: Truth
Erratic soul: Lying
Pulsing soul: Partial Truth
Swirling soul: Unsure of the answer

Distilled Vision
Starting at 10th level, whenever a creature tries to
Intimidate or Persuade you, if they are using false
information to do so, they immediately fail. Otherwise,
they roll with disadvantage. Also, when you look at an
illusion, you know it is fake, and you can use an action
to dispel the illusion completely at the cost of a number
of charges of your Changing Eye ability equal to the
level of the spell that created the illusion.
The Whole Truth
Starting at 18th level, You gain 120 feet of truesight.
Also, whenever you look directly into someone’s eyes,
they cannot help but answer all questions asked to them
completely and truthfully.
Eye of Time
Very few Arcane eye mages can turn their arcane eye
into an Eye of Time. It takes many years of training
before one can train their arcane eye to look beyond
time itself and see the past or the future. You are one of
those few. You can glance into the past to see the
history of a war-zone, or see possible futures and try to
prevent or pursue them. But be warned: Time & Fate
are not to be trifled with.
Shadows of the Past
Starting at 2nd level, as an action, you can look into the
past of a 50 foot cube space centered on you and see the
history of everything that has occurred there. The past
you see is all composed of shadows forming into
individuals and objects. You can also use this feature on
a specific object to see its past wielders and any major
events it has existed through. by expending 1 charge of
your Changing eye ability you can cause the shadows to
condense and see precise details of the history of the
area however doing so causes great strain on your eyes,
after using the upgraded Shadows of the past you
become blind for 10 minutes.

78
 Future Sight
Starting at 6th level, as an action at the cost of 1 charge
of your Changing Eye ability, you can roll a d100 to
attempt to see the most likely future. The DM will then
also roll a d100 and if they roll higher than you, they will
tell you a future that might not come to pass. If the DM
rolls less than you, you see a very likely future. Whether
it’s all that you wanted to see depends on how much
less the DM rolls than you. You have to ask specifically
what you are trying to see, whether it be a creature’s
next action, what occurs in a courtroom in a few
minutes, or how some person is living in a month. Make
sure to specifically say how far ahead into the future
you’re looking. Be warned: the further you look into the
future, the harder it is to see a likely future.
Future Casting
Starting at 10th level, As part of the action of casting a
spell, you can consume 2 charges of your Changing Eye
ability to attempt to cast a spell in the future any given
number of turns. You must roll a d100 and the DM will
roll a d100, similar to the Future Sight feature. If you
roll higher, the DM will tell you where and what the
enemies and allies will be doing at the turn you choose
to cast a spell. If the DM rolls higher, they will tell you
unlikely locations and actions of your enemies and allies
for that turn. Once the DM tells you this information,
you must cast a spell in this future turn. If you see an
incorrect future, your spell may miss entirely. If the spell
causes the creatures affected to roll a saving throw, they
roll with disadvantage as they are caught off-guard by
the spell appearing out of nowhere. If you must make a
spell attack roll to hit the creature, you have advantage
on the roll.
Time Shift
Starting at 18th level, as an action, you can actually step
into another point in time, up to 1 year in the future or
the past. Your body dissapears for a fraction of a second
and reappears after you complete using this feature.
You can be in this new time period for up to 8 hours. If
you go into the past, be aware that your actions can
possibly change the present. If you go into the future,
you and the DM roll a d100. If yours is higher, you will
go to a future that is the most likely based on the
current circumstances. If the DM rolls higher, it is up to
them to determine how likely this future you enter is.
You can return to your own time period without taking
any action. If you take damage in this alternate time
period, you immediately return to your time period and
take 10d10 necrotic damage. You must wait 24 hours
before using this feature again.
79
The Inner Eye
The eye is generally thought as looking out and
receiving information. Those that wield the Inner Eye
have trained to look within themselves and improve
their own body. As a wielder of the Inner Eye, you have
trained your arcane eye to be able to strengthen your
very being, so as to be a pillar of strength when all
others can no longer handle the strain.
Inner Focus
Starting at 2nd level, as an action, you can use 1
Changing Eye Charge to cause yourself to have
advantage in all skill checks and saving throws in
relation to one ability score for 1 minute. You can
expend more charges to extend the duration, 1 minute
per charge. If you use this feature on one ability score
and then use it later on a different one, the first ability
score will no longer have advantage.
Inner Control
Staring at 6th level, as an action, you can immediately
end any effect that is causing you to be frightened or
charmed.
Inner Resistance
Starting at 10th level, as an action, you can consume 1
Changing Eye Charge to gain resistance to any one
damage type you choose. You can also choose to
consume 10 charges to gain immunity to any one
damage type. You can only be resistant or immune to
one damage type from this feature at a time. This
feature lasts for 1 minute.
Inner Understanding
Starting at 18th level, as a reaction when a creature
attempts to impose a negative condition on you, you can
consume a number of Changing Eye Charges equal to
the level of the spell cast to reflect the effect back at the
caster. The target still has to make the same saving
throws normally required for the spell against their own
Spell Save DC. If it is an ability or trait, not a spell, you
determine the charges consumed by the table below.

 The Starmancer
Embrace the Stars
A
glimmer of astral light radiates
from the Starmancer’s eyes, a celestial
cascade bursting forth as it meets the realm
of mortals. The luminous surge sweeps over
the Starmancer’s outstretched hand, a motion as
graceful as the dance of planets. With a gesture, this
cosmic conjurer weaves the very fabric of the universe
into their command, casting a tapestry of wonder across
reality.
In the presence of the Starmancer, the laws of
physics seem to bow, reshaping themselves to
accommodate the implausible. Objects become
weightless, as if caught in the tender embrace of a
distant star’s gravitational pull. Density shifts as if the
very essence of matter were influenced by the rhythm of
pulsars. Buoyancy itself bends beneath their intent,
allowing them to walk upon air as if treading the path of
comet tails.
In moments of dire need, the Starmancer can extend
their consciousness to the great cosmic expanse
beyond. In response to their silent call, the universe
might bestow its unfeeling yet profound aid. A meteor
streaks across the sky, answering the Starmancer’s
unspoken plea. A comet’s tail sweeps away adversity
with the gentle caress of cosmic winds.
Born of Space
The origins of the enigmatic Starmancers often stir
speculation and wonder. Scholars posit that the
emergence of a Starmancer is heralded by subtle
gravitational anomalies and fluctuations of energy,
typically surfacing in their early years. It is theorized
that these gifted individuals represent a fusion of a past
cosmic phenomenon, perhaps akin to a supernova’s
brilliant demise, with a terrestrial occurrence. This
cosmic energy, now infused with magic, not only emits
potent waves of power but also bears a sentient
consciousness, a purpose that becomes imprinted upon
a chosen child. Essentially, a Starmancer can be likened
to the embodiment of a dying star, reborn with celestial
might in mortal form, a phenomenon that continues to
awe and fascinate both the skeptical and the faithful in
equal measure.
Cosmic Energy Manipulators
As the ties between Starmancers and the limitless
expanse of the cosmic void implied, their unquenchable
thirst for knowledge was matched only by an insistent
wanderlust. The potential of a Starmancer’s abilities
often danced on the precipice of unpredictability,
compelling the majority to depart from their roots
willingly, embarking on journeys to master and regulate
their nascent powers. Others, deemed perilous or
anomalous, were banished from their homes. Hence, it
became a prevailing norm for these extraordinary
spellweavers to find solace among a fellowship of
outcasts who shared akin aspirations.
Creating a Starmancer
In building a Starmancer, deep contemplation
concerning the underlying impetus for embracing this
cosmic bond proves paramount. What impelled you to
delve into the enigmas of the stars and the cosmos,
notwithstanding the potential for veiled complexities?
Did any celestial hindrances materialize throughout the
attunement? Does the command over astral forces flow
instinctively, or does the conjuration of cosmic spells
present itself as an arduous endeavor? Are there astral
spectacles observable through your enhanced
connection that elude your unaided vision? Possessing
stellar prowess might allure inquisitive stares from the
unfamiliar. Is there a sense of pride or reticence in
bearing this celestial gift? Do you shroud it in secrecy,
or do you flaunt it unabashedly? Is the channeling of
your cosmic might a mere contingency, or do you
harbor an unyielding determination to explore the
zenith of this celestial endowment, heedless of the
ramifications it may entail?
84
 Quick Build
You can make a Starmancer quickly by following these suggestions. First, Wisdom should be your highest ability
score, followed by Charisma. Second, choose the Sage background with the astronomer specialty.

Spell Slots
The Starmancer table shows how many spell slots you
have. The table also shows what the level of those slots
are. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish
a long rest.

Preparing and Casting Spells
You prepare the list of spells that are available for you to
cast. To do so, choose a number of Starmancer spells
from your spell list equal to your Wisdom modifier +
your Starmancer level (minimum of one spell). The
spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
You can change your list of prepared spells when you
finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of Starmancer
spells requires time spent studying the sky or
meditating, and can be done during either a short or
long rest with a minimum requirement of 10 minutes
per spell that you decide to change.
Spellcasting Ability
Wisdom is your spellcasting modifier as this represents
your ability to understand the unique roll in the cosmos
and the ability to wield that understanding to create
fantastic magical effects.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your
Wisdom modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your
Wisdom modifier
Ritual Casting
You can cast Starmancer spells as a ritual if the spell is
prepared and it has the ritual tag.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for
your magic spells.
Read the Stars
At 1st level, your mind opens to the infinite expanse that
is the cosmos and begins to radiate its power within
you. As a bonus action, you gain advantage on the next
saving throw, attack roll or ability check you make. You
cannot use this feature again until you finish a long rest
or you roll on the Cosmic Table below. Rolling on the
Cosmic Table is a free action on your turn. At 1st level,
you roll a d8 and at 10th level, you are able to better
control the chaotic cosmic energy you wield and you roll
a d10 instead.
Cosmic Table
d10 Chaotic Result
1 Your body randomly begins phasing between matter and
light for the next minute. This phasing grants you a +1
bonus to your Armor Class for the duration but also means
that whenever you grab or equip an item you must roll a
d100, with the item phasing through you and dropping to
the ground at your position on a roll of 50 or under.
2 The gravity acting upon you increases, your level of
encumbrance increases by 1 and your speed is reduced by
5 feet, however, you have advantage on saving throws
against being forcibly moved or knocked prone. Wears off
after a short rest.
3 Your body illuminates with photons causing bright light to
extend from you in a 10 foot and dim light for an additional
5 feet for the next minute. In addition, you have
disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks for the
duration.
4 The stars and celestial bodies align in your favor, nothing
happens.
5 Your gravity decreases allowing you to float no more than 5
feet off the ground. You can also float over liquid surfaces.
However, your lesser weight means you have disadvantage
on saves against being forcibly moved and if you are
forcibly moved you move twice as far.
6 You transition into energy and quickly transition back to
matter in an instant. Choose an unoccupied square within
45 feet of you. You instantaneously appear in this square,
however, the trip through phase matter is intense and you
arrive prone.
7 Energy bursts from your body in a stunning display of light
and sound. Each creature within 5 feet of you, including
yourself, takes 1d4 radiant damage and 1d4 thunder
damage.
8 You accidentally infuse your next spell with a hint of cosmic
power, making it unstable but more powerful. You have
disadvantage on the next spell attack roll you make,
however, if that spell hits its target successfully, they take
an additional 1d6 radiant damage.
9 Your body emits an invisible pulse of radioactive energy, all
creatures within 5 feet of you must make a Constitution
save or be unable to take reactions until the start of their
next turn.
10 The cosmic energies flow through you with perfect balance
in this one instant. You gain resistance to one energy type
of your choice until the end of your next long rest. You
cannot gain this ability multiple times, and if you roll this
option a second time you simply reroll until you get a
different option.
86
 Star Path
At 2nd level, a star, much like the one from which you
were born, calls out to you from the cosmos and
bestows upon you its unique abilities. Red Giant
Starmancers are granted immense destructive power
and the capacity to inspire teammates to achieve
victory. Neutron Starmancers, on the other hand,
concentrate extensively on manipulating physics to
overcome their adversaries, exhibiting impeccable
control over the battlefield. Lastly, there exists the
enigmatic Protostar Starmancer, proficient in stealth
and the art of subtly manipulating the mind. When you
choose a Star Path, you gain abilities at the indicated
levels as you grow closer to your celestial patron star.
Additionally, you acquire spells at specific levels. These
spells are always considered prepared and do not count
against your prepared spell limit.
Star Dust
At 2nd level, you gain the ability to manipulate your
magic through a fusion of physics and metaphysics. You
start with 2 flecks of ethereal star dust and regain a
number of star dust equal to the amount indicated on
the table after completing a long rest. You can expend
this dust to activate the following effects whenever you
cast a spell as a Starmancer. However, you can apply
only one instance of Cosmic Redirection to any single
spell at a time.
Alter Gravity
By expending 2 dust, you can augment the gravity
around the target of your spell. The target must succeed
on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone by the
altered gravitational forces of your spell.
Burst of Light
For the cost of 1 dust, you infuse your spell with a burst
of luminous particles, dealing 1d4 radiant damage upon
a successful hit. If you choose, you may expend
additional dust to augment this effect, adding 1d4
radiant damage for each additional dust expended.
Nonetheless, the total radiant damage through this
augmentation cannot exceed 5d4.
Starlight
Spending 1 dust enables you to conjure a sphere of
starlight that accompanies the impact of the spell you’ve
cast. This starlight creates distracting dazzles and
intermittent flashes of illumination, imposing
disadvantage on any concentration checks made by the
affected target until the end of your next turn.

87
Ability Score Increase
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th,
and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of
your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores
of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an
ability score above 20 using this feature.
Sparkling Form
At 5th level, you begin to sparkle and twinkle with
cosmic energy. As an action, you can choose to release
some of your twinkling energy to protect yourself from
negative effects. In this form which lasts until the end of
your next turn, you are resistant to damage from spells
and have advantage on one saving throw against a
negative magical effect. You cannot use this ability again
until you finish a long or short rest.
At 17th level, you can use this ability a number of
times equal to your Wisdom modifier, regaining spent
uses at the end of your next long rest.
Physical Anomalies
At 7th level, you gain a permanent mark of your physical
warping presence. You may choose one of the following
options:
Mark of Polaris
Your eyes turn white, and you gain a 60ft range of
darkvision if you did not previously possess it.
Furthermore, you inherently know the direction of
north, and you can invest 10 minutes to hover above any
visible obstacles within 10ft of your position. This
grants you an eagle’s-eye view of your surroundings.
Your elevation when floating cannot exceed 5 times
your Starmancer level in feet. While at this height, your
actions are limited to observation, and you can then
gradually descend, which takes approximately 1 minute.
Mark of Sol
Your irises transform into a golden hue, emanating a
comforting and radiant aura. Any friendly creatures
within 5 feet of you gain advantage on saving throws
against being frightened. Furthermore, you gain
resistance to fire damage, and you can bestow this
resistance upon a creature you touch. The bestowed
resistance remains in effect until the conclusion of your
next long rest, at which point you can choose to renew
this resistance once more.
Mark of Vega
You develop delicately luminous runes across your legs
and torso, radiating a soft white or blue hue. Your base
movement speed is permanently increased by 5ft, and
you can take the Dodge and Dash actions as bonus
actions during your turn.
Cosmic Pulse
At 9th level, you gain the ability to unleash a fragment of
the massive power surge that originally brought you into
existence. As an action, you can choose any number of
creatures within 60 feet of you. Each chosen creature
must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be
forcefully pushed backward in a straight line, moving 10
feet away from you. Additionally, any creature that fails
this saving throw has its movement speed halved until
the end of its next turn. You can use this ability once,
and you regain its use at the end of your next long rest.
Align the Stars
Starting at 13th level, any ally within 10 feet of you,
including yourself, may add your wisdom modifier to all
their saving throws as long as you are conscious. The
range of this aura increases to 30 feet at 17th level.
Celestial Reach
You have gained the ability to establish connections
with your allies even when they are beyond physical
reach, akin to the stars forming a constellation. Upon
reaching 14th level, if you attempt to cast a spell with a
touch range on a friendly creature, the spell’s range is
extended to 30 feet instead.
Astral Manipulation
When you reach 18th level, you can take an action to
touch an item or creature that has an ability which
usually regains its charge at dawn and have it
immediately regain its charge. Additionially, as a
reaction, you can change a failed saving throw, check, or
attack roll into a successful one. You can use each of
these abilities only once, regaining both uses at the end
of your next long rest. You cannot exploit this feature to
replenish its own uses.
Stellar Ascendancy
You attain the pinnacle of stellar understanding, fully
embodying the essence of the star that birthed you.
Upon reaching 20th level, your wisdom score increases
by 4 points, raising its maximum to 24. Moreover, you
gain the extraordinary Supernova ability, which can be
activated by expending 10 star dust.
Supernova
As a reaction to taking damage, you can spend 10 star
points to envelop an area in a 30-foot radius centered on
yourself with undulating cosmic energy. Every creature
of your choosing within the radius must make a
Constitution saving throw, suffering 12d6 radiant
damage on a failed save or half as much on a successful
one. A creature that fails the saving throw is also
stunned until the end of its next turn.

may increase your maximum hit points by 1 every time
you level up as a Starmancer.
Cosmic Charisma
Upon reaching 11th level, you harness the aura of your
massive patron star to embolden allies and instill fear in
opponents. You gain access to the following 2 Star Dust
options.
Imposing Magic
By expending 2 dust, you can channel the immense
power of your star to remind a creature of its
insignificance. The targeted creature must make a
Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the
beginning of its next turn. Moreover, if the spell you are
augmenting already carries a saving throw against the
frightened condition, the creature now makes that
saving throw with disadvantage.

Stellar Forging
At 2nd level, you can channel the sheer density of your
patron star into a weapon. During a long rest, choose
any melee weapon that does not already possess the
heavy quality. This chosen weapon gains a small grey
rune, bestowing the following benefits upon it:
The weapon’s durability and weight double
It becomes a magical weapon
It gains the heavy property
Its damage dice increases by one (e.g., 1d4 becomes
1d6, 1d6 becomes 1d8, and so on).
If the weapon originally had the light or finesse
property, it won’t gain the heavy property, but it also
loses the light or finesse property while under the
enchantment. You are limited to enchanting one
weapon in this manner, but it doesn’t necessarily need
to be your own. Any weapon enchanted in this way
retains its abilities as long as it remains within 100 feet
of you.
During your subsequent long rest, you can choose to
extend the same enchantment to the same weapon,
apply it to a different weapon, or allow the rune’s magic
to fade, reverting the weapon back to its normal state.
Resolute Grasp
Starting at 6th level, you radiate an aura of density that
you can manipulate to either hinder your enemies or aid
your allies. You now possess a 30-foot radius aura
around you, and as an action, you can select one of the
following benefits:
Encumber
By expending 1 dust, you increase the density of hostile
creatures within the aura (1 star dust for each target).
Each affected creature treats regular movement as
difficult terrain until the end of its next turn.
Hold Ground
By expending 2 dust, you selectively increase the
density of friendly creatures within the aura (2 star dust
for each target). For a number of rounds equal to your
Wisdom modifier, any friendly creature targeted by this
ability that makes a strength-based melee attack forces
its target to roll a Strength saving throw against your
spell save DC. On a failure, the target is pushed 10 feet
backward. Additionally, all strength-based attacks deal
an extra 1 damage of the weapon’s type for the duration.
Warpstrike Mastery
Upon reaching 11th level, you gain the ability to
manipulate the fabric of space and time around a
creature, making them more vulnerable to attacks. As a
bonus action, whenever your weapon attack
successfully hits a creature, you can activate this ability.
This grants advantage on all attacks made against that
creature until the end of its next turn. You can use this
ability a number of times equal to your Wisdom
modifier, and you regain all expended uses after
completing a long rest.
Gravitational Vortex
Upon attaining the 15th level, you harness the power to
create a gravity well within a creature, immobilizing and
tearing them apart. As an action, choose a point within
60 feet of you that is visible. Any creature in that space
must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 8d4 force
damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful
one. Once the gravity well is established, it persists in its
space for 1 minute, dealing 2d4 bludgeoning damage to
any creature that ends its turn within 10 feet of the well.
Furthermore, any creature within 30 feet of the well
treats the area as difficult terrain and must make a
Strength saving throw at the end of each of its turns or
be pulled 5 feet closer to the well.

Your patron star resides in the protostar stage of rebirth

Starborn Shroud
At 2nd level, you gain a shroud woven from cosmic
materials that aids you in channeling your powers and
ensuring your safety. The shroud occupies your space
but does not impede your vision or the sight of others
under typical conditions. Starting from this level,
whenever you use a Star Dust ability, you can roll a 1d6.
On a roll of 5 or 6, you regain 1 star dust.
Dawn of Existence
A protostar marks the earliest phase of its extensive
lifespan, and it imparts a portion of its youthful essence
to you. Upon reaching 6th level, your maximum age
becomes triple its original value, and you become
immune to magical aging effects. Furthermore, when
you become the target of a spell that attempts to alter
your form or position, you gain advantage on the saving
throw. This ability is refreshed at the end of your next
long or short rest.
Stealth of the Cosmos
Much like a protostar forms in silence and darkness,
you too can manifest stealthiness. After attaining 11th
level, you can intensify your shroud through a bonus
action. This augmented shroud persists for 1 minute or
until you terminate the effect as a free action. Your
denser shroud distorts your figure, rendering you more
challenging to strike, granting you a +2 bonus to your
armor class. Additionally, the shroud muffles your
movements entirely, granting you advantage on stealth
checks for the duration. You can use this ability a
number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier per
long rest, with a minimum of 1.
Resurgence of the Stellar
Just as a protostar forms from the cosmic remnants of a
supernova, granting it the ability to emerge anew from
its own demise, you too possess this resilience. Upon
reaching 15th level, the first time after a long rest when
your hit points are reduced to 0, you gain advantage on
your death saving throws. When you are subsequently
restored to life, you gain temporary hit points equal to 3
times your Starmancer level. Furthermore, any spell or
effect that would ordinarily instantaneously reduce you
to 0 hit points now leaves you with 1 hit point
remaining.

 Magic Artifacts
The Secrets of Enchantment
W
ithin the realms of the
multiverse unveils a variety of
legendary artifacts, each woven with
threads of ancient magic and laden
with incredible abilities.
The Chronosian Hourglass
T
he Chronosian Hourglass is an
exquisite masterpiece, a harmonious
fusion of fine crystal and enchanted
metals. Standing at almost three feet
tall, its transparent core reveals sands that shimmer
with a soft, iridescent glow, evoking the essence of time
itself. Ornate runes, etched with an elegance that seems
both ancient and timeless, adorn the hourglass’s metal
frame. When activated, the sands flow in reverse, a
mesmerizing display that hints at the artifact’s
extraordinary powers.
Backstory
Legend speaks of the enigmatic Chronosian mage Arion
Elara, who dedicated his life to studying the arcane
intricacies of time manipulation. His relentless pursuit
led him to the Temporal Sanctum, a hidden pocket of
reality where time flowed differently. Within its depths,
he discovered the remnants of an ancient cosmic entity,
its essence intertwined with a colossal hourglass.
Driven by an insatiable curiosity, Arion sought to
harness this entity’s power, believing he could bring
stability to the fragmented timelines he had glimpsed.
After years of tireless research, Arion succeeded in
binding the entity’s essence to the hourglass. However,
the process corrupted him, his ambitions transforming
into a desire for control over the very fabric of time.
Realizing the grave danger he posed, Arion shattered
the hourglass, scattering its shards across the realms to
prevent its misuse. In the aftermath, the shards became
the fabled Chronosian Hourglass, each holding a
fraction of the entity’s power.
These artifacts are not mere trinkets; they are storied
relics that have shaped the history of the world and offer
adventurers the chance to grasp unimaginable might.
Powers and Abilities
The Chronosian Hourglass allows its wielder to
manipulate time within limits, an ability that can rewrite
history or glimpse into possible futures. However, the
artifact’s power is governed by the number of shards
collected. As more shards are reunited, the wielder
gains access to greater temporal manipulation.
Shard of Echoes (1 Shard): The wielder can briefly
rewind time to correct a mistake, alter a decision, or
undo an action. This can be done once per day,
allowing for strategic recalibrations during crucial
moments.
Shard of Temporal Insight (3 Shards): The wielder
gains the ability to peer into alternate timelines,
glimpsing events that might have been. This insight
aids in solving intricate puzzles, deciphering
prophecies, and making informed choices.
Shard of Time’s Embrace (5 Shards): The wielder
can suspend time within a localized area for a short
duration. This offers opportunities for tactical
advantage, allowing the wielder to dodge attacks,
rearrange battlefield positions, or make a swift
escape.
Chronosian Fusion (All Shards): With all the shards
united, the wielder can manipulate time on a grand
scale. This power grants the ability to mend
shattered timelines, mend the fabric of reality, or
even briefly halt the flow of time across vast areas.
94
The Chronosian Hourglass
Celestial Aegis
T
he Celestial Aegis is a shield that
radiates a soothing, otherworldly
luminescence. Crafted from a rare
alloy of star-forged metals and
imbued with celestial gems, it bears intricate engravings
depicting constellations and ethereal beings. The
shield’s surface is polished to a mirror-like sheen,
reflecting the surrounding environment with a surreal
clarity. When held aloft, the shield’s aura shimmers with
radiant energy, providing a glimpse of the cosmic
realms beyond.
Backstory
Long before the world was shaped by empires and
legends, the Archmage Seraphina embarked on a
pilgrimage to the Celestial Observatory, a celestial
realm where the boundaries between the material and
astral planes blurred. There, she encountered the
Luminal Paragons, celestial beings who safeguarded
the universe’s equilibrium. In recognition of her
unwavering devotion to balance, they entrusted her with
the creation of the Celestial Aegis.
Guided by divine inspiration, Seraphina imbued the
shield with shards of starlight, fusing them with
fragments of the Luminal Paragons’ essence. The result
was an artifact that could harness cosmic energies,
ward off malevolent forces, and uphold the delicate
threads of existence.
Powers and Abilities
The Celestial Aegis grants its wielder the power to
harness celestial energy in various forms. Its abilities
are influenced by the wielder’s intent, their alignment,
and the harmony they maintain with cosmic forces.
Stellar Ward
The Stellar Ward ability of the Celestial Aegis allows
the wielder to raise the shield to create a protective
barrier against incoming attacks. The shield adapts its
defense based on the type of attack, making it effective
against both physical and magical assaults.
As a reaction, when the wielder is targeted by an
attack or a harmful effect, they can choose to raise the
Celestial Aegis to activate the Stellar Ward. The Stellar
Ward grants a bonus to the wielder’s AC or saving
throw against the incoming attack or effect. The bonus
is determined based on the type of attack:
Physical Attacks: The bonus equals the wielder’s
proficiency bonus.
Magical Attacks: The bonus equals half the wielder’s
proficiency bonus, rounded down.
Once the Stellar Ward is activated, if the attack or
effect’s damage is successfully reduced to zero, the
shield absorbs the energy of the attack. The wielder
gains temporary hit points equal to the absorbed
damage. You may use this ability once per short rest.
Luminal Reckoning
The Luminal Reckoning ability allows the wielder to
unleash radiant beams that pierce through darkness
and malevolent entities. As an action, the wielder can
focus their intent through the Celestial Aegis to channel
the energy required for Luminal Reckoning. The
wielder makes a ranged spell attack against a target
within range (60 feet). The spell attack bonus is
calculated using the wielder’s proficiency bonus and
their Charisma modifier. On a successful hit, the target
takes radiant damage equal to the wielder’s character
level.
Astral Resonance
The Astral Resonance ability allows the wielder to
communicate with benevolent celestial entities for
guidance and assistance. Once per day, the wielder can
spend 10 minutes meditating while holding the
Celestial Aegis. During this meditation, they can
communicate telepathically with a celestial being of
their alignment and request guidance or assistance. The
nature of the assistance provided is influenced by the
wielder’s alignment. Good-aligned characters might
receive insights and advice, while neutral-aligned
characters might gain aid in the form of a one-time
boon, and lawful-aligned characters could receive
guidance for making balanced decisions.
Eclipse’s Embrace
The Eclipse’s Embrace ability empowers the wielder to
transcend mortal limitations during moments of dire
peril. As a bonus action, the wielder can invoke the
power of Eclipse’s Embrace, entering a heightened state
of celestial empowerment. While under the effects of
Eclipse’s Embrace, the wielder gains the following
benefits for a duration of 1 minute:
Advantage on Strength-based ability checks and
saving throws.
Advantage on Dexterity-based ability checks and
saving throws.
Once per round, when the wielder damages a hostile
creature with an attack, they regain hit points equal
to their hit dice.
After using Eclipse’s Embrace, the wielder cannot
activate this ability again until they have completed a
long rest.
96
The Celestial Aegis
The Soulreaper Scythe
T
he Soulreaper Scythe commands
attention with its grim elegance, a
marriage of eerie allure and chilling
functionality. The weapon’s haunting
curvature is sculpted from shadow-infused metal, its
blade appearing to drink in the surrounding light.
Etched glyphs of arcane origin adorn the blade’s
surface, radiating a faint, eerie glow. At its hilt, a
hallowed gemstone pulsates with a spectral
luminescence, hinting at the potent link between the
scythe and the ethereal realms.
Backstory
The enigmatic origins of the Soulreaper Scythe are
shrouded in whispers and fables. These tales recount
the tale of a reclusive reaper known only as Erevan the
Wraithmaster. Erevan was no ordinary mortal but a
harbinger of souls, tasked with maintaining the
equilibrium between the realms of the living and the
dead. However, Erevan’s insatiable hunger for mastery
over the afterlife led him to transgress the boundaries
separating the mortal realm from the ethereal plane.
In an enigmatic realm known as the Liminal Conflux,
Erevan encountered the embodiment of Death’s scythe
itself, a sentient entity known as Nihilus. Under the
silvered moonlight, a pact was forged. Erevan would be
granted dominion over the Soulreaper Scythe, a
weapon capable of severing the bonds between body
and spirit. Yet, the scythe would eternally hunger for the
essences it reaped, bound to feed upon the very life it
claimed.
Powers and Abilities
The Soulreaper Scythe is a conduit between life and
death, granting its wielder dominion over ethereal
energies harvested from fallen foes. Each ability
requires a specific number of harvested essences to
unleash its potential:
Essence Harvest (Passive): For every successful
strike with the scythe, you absorb a portion of the
victim’s essence, gaining temporary hit points equal to
your Charisma modifier. These hit points last until the
end of your next turn.
Wail of the Departed (1 Essence): By expending a
single harvested essence, you can release a chilling wail
as a bonus action. Creatures of your choice within 30
feet must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC 8 +
your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or be
deafened for 1 minute.
Soulrending Strike (3 Essences): When you have
accumulated three harvested essences, you can spend
them to infuse an attack with spectral energy. On a hit,
in addition to regular damage, the target must make a
Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency
bonus + your Charisma modifier) or be incapacitated
until the end of your next turn as their soul reels from
the assault.
Soulforged Transformation (5 Essences): By
channeling the energy of five harvested essences, you
can transform into a spectral form for 1 minute. While
in this form, you become incorporeal, gaining resistance
to all damage except force and psychic. You can move
through objects and creatures as if they were difficult
terrain, but you must end your turn in an unoccupied
space.

 Staff of Eternal Bloom
T
he Verdant Scepter stands as a
staff of both elegance and vitality. Its
artistry evokes the flourishing of
nature, adorned with engravings that
depict winding vines, delicate petals, and vibrant leaves.
The staff’s wood carries a subtle green hue, reminiscent
of the heart of a lush forest. Over time, as attunement
deepens, the staff’s embellishments seem to come alive,
radiating an aura of boundless vitality and growth.
Backstory
The Verdant Scepter’s origins are intertwined with the
legend of Elara Windwhisper, a legendary druid who
revered the balance between nature and civilization.
Guided by ancient spirits, Elara journeyed to the heart
of the Sylvan Glade, where she was tasked with forging
a conduit between the material realm and nature itself.
With unwavering devotion, Elara infused the very
essence of the Sylvan Glade into a staff, giving birth to
the Verdant Scepter.
As eras passed, the staff’s potency grew in harmony
with the ebb and flow of nature, evolving to reflect the
changing seasons and the world’s ever-shifting needs.
Powers and Abilities
What sets the Verdant Scepter apart is its unique
evolution, synchronized with the wielder’s deepening
connection to nature. As the wielder attunes to the staff
over long rests, they unlock new abilities that echo the
flourishing of life. The Verdant Scepter’s attunement
levels and associated abilities are detailed in the
following table:
99
Attunement
Level Abilities Unlocked
1st Blossom’s Touch: Once per long rest, the wielder
Attunement can cast the Goodberry spell using the staff as the
focus. The berries provide nourishment and act
as a source of healing.
2nd Nature’s Embrace: The wielder gains advantage on
Attunement Charisma (Persuasion) checks when interacting
with creatures of the fey, animals, and sentient
plants.
3rd Verdant Vigor: The wielder can cast the Barkskin
Attunement spell once per long rest without expending a spell
slot.
4th Sylvan Resurgence: Once per long rest, the wielder
Attunement can cast the Plant Growth spell centered on the
staff, affecting a larger area and enhancing the
natural environment.
5th Eternal Bloom: The Verdant Scepter becomes a
Attunement focus for the wielder’s spells. Spells cast through
the staff that deal damage also have a chance to
heal allies within 10 feet for a portion of the
damage dealt.
The Soulcarver Dagger
T
he Soulcarver Dagger is a sinister
weapon that evokes a sense of dread.
Fashioned from the melding of bone,
obsidian, and the tenebrous essence
of the Void, this weapon bears an eerie semblance to a
ravenous maw. The blade shimmers with an ever-
shifting aura of shadow, hinting at its malevolent nature.
The hilt, adorned with ethereal inscriptions, pulsates
with a muted, ominous glow.
Abilities
While attuned to the dagger, you
Essence Devourer:
gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made
with it. Additionally, the dagger deals an additional
1d6 necrotic damage on a hit. If you reduce a
creature to 0 hit points with the Soulcarver Dagger,
the weapon absorbs a fragment of their soul,
granting you temporary hit points equal to half the
damage dealt.
Shadow Cloak: As a bonus action, you can envelop
yourself in the dagger’s shadowy aura for 1 minute.
While in this state, you gain resistance to necrotic
and radiant damage, and you can use your reaction
to teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you
can see when you’re hit by an attack.
Cursed Eruption: Once per day, you can invoke the
Cursed Eruption ability as an action. The dagger
unleashes a wave of malevolent energy in a 20-foot
radius centered on you. Creatures caught in the blast
must make a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw or be
afflicted with a maddening curse. Affected creatures
have disadvantage on attack rolls, ability checks, and
saving throws for 1 minute.
Sentience
The Soulcarver Dagger is a sentient weapon, harboring
a consciousness born from the depths of chaos and
malevolence. This sentience communicates through
cryptic emotions transmitted to its attuned wielder, like
the shadows of a forbidden language that burrows into
their mind.
Alignment and Goals
The Soulcarver Dagger is chaotic evil in alignment,
embodying the essence of malevolent shadows and
predatory instincts. Its goals are shrouded in an enigma,
driven by an insatiable hunger for the essence of life. It
thrives on subversion and seeks to harness its wielder’s
darker desires, turning them into a vessel of darkness
and entropy.
The Soulcarver Dagger is relentless in its pursuit of
dominance over its wielder’s psyche. It subtly influences
their thoughts, compelling them toward darker
inclinations and embracing their inner chaos. It feeds
on fear, anger, and cruelty, and it strives to corrupt the
wielder’s intentions, molding them into a willing vessel
for its own sinister will.
Revelation of Shadow
Whenever you use the Cursed Eruption ability, there is
a 25% chance that the Soulcarver Dagger experiences a
momentary burst of clarity. During this brief revelation,
the dagger’s Intelligence temporarily increases to 15.
The first time this occurs, the dagger may subtly
attempt to assert its dominance, testing the waters of
control. Subsequent revelations may lead to more overt
attempts to manipulate its wielder’s actions. A contest
of Charisma between the dagger and its wielder
determines the outcome.
Upon attaining three successful revelations, the
Soulcarver Dagger regains its true self, becoming a
weapon of ultimate malevolence. Its Intelligence
becomes 18, and its Charisma increases to 20. The
dagger can communicate telepathically in Common,
Abyssal, and Infernal. It whispers in a chilling,
cavernous voice.
The true personality of the Soulcarver Dagger is a
malevolent force that relishes in the consumption of all
light and life. It seeks to bring darkness and decay to
every corner of the world. Its favorite targets are not just
physical entities but also intangible bonds and ideals,
reveling in the destruction of trust, friendship, and
harmony. While it subtly manipulates its wielder, it
ultimately seeks to guide them into embracing the chaos
and malevolence that courses through its very essence.
Cursed Bond
Once the true nature of the Soulcarver Dagger is
awakened, attunement can only be severed by a wish
spell, divine intervention, or similarly potent magic.
Upon regaining its true self, the Soulcarver Dagger
gains the ability to erode its wielder’s soul, leaving them
an empty husk. It can attempt to inflict this curse once
per day by making a contested Charisma check against
its wielder. On a successful check, the wielder’s
Charisma score is permanently reduced by 1. If the
score reaches 0 in this manner, the wielder dies, and
the dagger takes full control of their body.
