Harbinger

W
hile druids wield the power of nature, their
magic is centered around creation and life.
However, one should not forget the sheer
power of nature's wrath and the destruction of
its unbridled fury. Those who wield this power
are known as harbingers.
Destructive Magic
Every aspect of a harbinger's magic is destructive and
extremely deadly. Even the most minor spells can have
devestating effects. This is even further exemplified in
powerful harbingers, who can cause extinction-level events if
they are not careful to use their magic with caution.
Stoic or Insane
Harbingers possess an immense amount of destructive
power, and this usually has one of two effects on the wielder.
They will either be stoic and afraid to use their magic, in fear
that it will cause more destruction than good; or they are
driven mad with power and become ruthless tyrant mages,
slaughtering anyone who gets in their way.
1 BASE | LORE & TABLE
Class Features
As a harbinger, you gain the following class features
Hit Points
Hit Dice: 1d8 per harbinger level
Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Constitution modifier
Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + your Constitution
modifier per harbinger level after 1st
Proficiencies
Armor: Light armor, medium armor, shields
Weapons: Simple weapons
Saving Throws: Strength, Wisdom
Skills: Choose two from Acrobatics, Athletics, Insight,
Intimidation, Nature, Perception, and Survival
Equipment
You start with the following equipment, in addition to the
equipment granted by your background:
(a) a simple weapon and a shield or (b) two simple
weapons
(a) leather armor or (b) scale mail
an explorer's pack and a druidic focus
Spellcasting
Drawing on the power of nature's wrath, you can cast spells
that bend this primal force to your bidding.
Cantrips
At 1st level, you know four cantrips of your choice from the
harbinger spell list. You learn additional harbinger cantrips of
your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known
column of the Harbinger table.
Preparing and Casting Spells
The Harbinger table shows how many spell slots you have to
cast your harbinger spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one
of these harbinger 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.
You prepare the list of harbinger spells that are available
for you to cast, choosing from the harbinger spell list. When
you do so, choose a number of harbinger spells equal to your
Wisdom modifier + your harbinger level (minimum of one
spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell
slots.
You can also change your list of prepared spells when you
finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of harbinger spells
requires time spent in prayer and meditation: at least 1
minute per spell level for each spell on your list.
Spellcasting Ability
Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your harbinger spells,
since your magic draws from primal forces. You use your
Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability.
In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the
saving throw DC for a harbinger spell you cast and when
making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your
Wisdom modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your
Wisdom modifier
Spellcasting Focus
You can use a druidic focus as a spellcasting focus for your
harbinger spells.
Primal Mind
Starting at 1st level, you have a knack for primal actions. You
are proficient in the Survival skill. If you were already
proficient in Survival, you gain another skill proficiency from
the harbinger list.
In addition, your proficiency bonus is doubled for checks
made with the Survival skill and you can speak, read, and
write Primordial.
Entropic Recovery
Also starting at 1st level, you can use your own life force to
regenerate magical ability. Once per day when you finish a
short rest, you can expend a number of hit dice and regain
spell slots of a combined level equal to the number of hit dice
you expend, and none of these spell slots can be higher than
6th level.
Entropic Focus
Starting at 2nd level, you choose the focus with which to
center your destructive magic around. Choose from the
astronomical, blizzard, disease, divine, meteoric, revelatory
beast, storm, temporal, volcanic, or war foci. Your choice
grants you features at 2nd level and again at 6th, 10th, and
14th levels.
Entropic Extraction
Also starting at 2nd level, your spells are empowered by the
entropy of your enemies' deaths. When a creature of CR 1/2
or higher that you have attacked with a spell or harbinger
feature within the last two rounds and is within 15 feet of you
dies, you can use your reaction to gain power from the
entropy of their death, causing you gain a +1 bonus to the
damage of your spells and harbinger features. This bonus
increases every time you use this feature, to a maximum
amount equal to your harbinger level.
This bonus is halved when you complete a short rest,
rounding down, and is reset to 0 when you complete a long
rest.
Master of Extinction
Starting at 18th level, you have become a master of extinction
events and have lived to tell about it. For every 10 years that
pass, your body ages only 1 year.
Inevitable
Starting at 18th level, your magic will surely crush your foes.
Any spells or effects granted by your entropic focus ignore
resistance and treat immunity as resistance.
Apocalypse
Starting at 20th level, you can cause a mass extinction event
at will. You can cast the 9th-level spell granted by your
Entropic Focus without expending a spell slot. This effort
strains you, however, and you gain a level of exhaustion.
You can use this feature once, and regain the ability to do
so when you finish a long rest.
