Creating a Seeker Proficiencies

When creating a seeker, consider what kind of deity you
follow and quest for. What kind of training did you go through
to become a seeker? How does your patron or god
communicate with you and how do you read their omens?
Will you aid your allies in combat with supportive magics or
empower your own abilities to take down your foes? Be sure
to work with the DM about your background.
Quick Build
You can make a Seeker quickly by following these
suggestions. First, make either Dexterity or Intelligence your
highest ability score, followed by Constitution. Second,
choose the Outlander background.
Hit Points
Hit Dice: 1d8 per seeker level
Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Constitution modifier
Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + your
Constitution modifier per seeker level after 1st
Armor: Light armor, shields
Weapons: Simple weapons, hand crossbows, longbows,
longswords, rapiers, shortswords
Tools: Thieves' tools, one type of artisan's tools of your
choice
Saving Throws: Constitution, Intelligence
Skills: Choose two from Acrobatics, Arcana, Deception,
History, Investigation, Medicine, Religion, Perception,
Persuasion, Sleight of Hand, Stealth, Survival
Equipment
You start with the following equipment, in addition to the
equipment granted by your background:
a rapier, shortsword, or longsword
shortbow and 20 arrows, shortsword, a dagger, or a shield
leather armor
Thieves’ or tinkerers’ tools and a dungeoneer’s pack
One fortune telling device such as tarot cards, a crystal
ball, various teas, etc.

Spellcasting
Through your studies and connection with the divine, you are
able to use magic spells. As a seeker, your magic is generally
slower than others, but creativity is your true power. See
Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting.
Cantrips
At 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice from the
seeker spell list. At higher levels, you learn additional seeker
cantrips of your choice, as shown in the Cantrips Known
column of the Seeker table.
Preparing and Casting Spells
The seeker table shows how many spell slots you have per
spell level to cast your seeker spells. To cast one of your
seeker spells of 1st level or higher at the regular casting time,
you must expend a spell slot of the spell’s level or higher. You
regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.
You prepare a list of spells at the end of each long rest from
the seeker spell list. When you do so, choose a number of
spells equal to your Intelligence modifier + half your seeker
level, rounded down (minimum of one spell). The spells must
be of a level for which you are able to cast. These spells count
as Seeker spells for purposes of spellcasting and rites.
You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish
a long rest. Preparing a new list of seeker spells requires
time spent in studying omens from the divine and
interpreting the meaning of these signs: at least 1 minute per
spell level for each spell on your list.

Marigold Tarot by Amrit Brar

Spellcasting Ability
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your seeker spells,
since you learn your spells through dedicated Maven and
memorization. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell
refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a
seeker spell you cast and when making an attack roll with
one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your
Intelligence modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your
Intelligence modifier
Ritual spells
You can cast any seeker spell you prepare as a ritual if that
spell has the ritual tag.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use a divine focus as a spellcasting focus for your
seeker spells. This divine focus can be your fortune telling
device.
Rites
For any seeker spell prepared of 5th level and below, you are
able to cast those spells as a Rite instead of using a spell slot.
The cast time for these spells follows the format of rituals
and equals the standard casting time plus 10 minutes. You
regain all expended Rites when you finish a long rest.
Spells cast using a Rite have an associated cost depending
on what spell is being cast, as seen in the table below.
Spell Level Rites Used
1st & 2nd 1
3rd & 4th 2
5th 3
Mavenhood
Choose one Mavenhood related to how you best will serve
your patron: Cunning Eye, Bitter Heart, Brightened Spirit,
Cutting Tongue, Lurking Hand, Roaming Steps, Rotting
Voice, and Shifting Flesh. Each Maven is detailed at the end
of the class description. Your choice grants you Maven spells
and features when you choose it at 1st level and additional
benefits at 3rd, 10th, and 14th level.
Maven Spells
Each Mavenhood has a list of spells, its Maven spells, that
you gain at the Seeker levels noted in the Maven description.
Once you gain a Maven spell, you always have it prepared, and
it doesn't count against the number of spells you can prepare
each day. If you have a Maven spell that doesn't appear on the
Seeker spell list, the spell is nonetheless a Seeker spell for
you.
Manifesting Your Powers
See the Reading The Weave section on the final
page for optional ideas of how your Seeker reads
fortunes, casts your spells, and traverses the world!

 Tea Leaves
At 1st level, you have studied the greater arcanum enough to
know which omens should receive attention and what can be
cast aside. You have advantage on ability checks to read signs
of good and ill omens.
Through study of the subtle signs woven by the Weave, you
may guide others. You learn the guidance cantrip, which
doesn’t count against the number of seeker cantrips you
know. When you cast guidance the range is 60 feet instead of
touch and does not require concentration.
Premonition
Starting at 2nd Level, your connection with the divine gives
you a brief premonition allowing you to evade foes and find
what others would miss. You can use your bonus action to
take the Disengage, Hide, Search, or Steady Aim action.
Sixth Sense
Also at 2nd level, you can enter a state prescience and are
able to add a d4 to all ability checks and saving throws until
the end of your next turn. You may use this feature a number
of times equal to your proficiency bonus plus your
Intelligence modifier per long rest.
Magical Adaptation
At 3rd level, whenever you finish a long rest, you can replace
one seeker cantrip you know with another cantrip from the
seeker spell list.
Ability Score Improvement
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. You can’t increase an ability score past 20 with this feature.
Using the optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this
feature to take a feat of your choice instead.
Destined Strike
At 6th level, while Sixth Sense is active during your turn, you
may modify a seeker cantrip with casting time of one action.
After casting your cantrip you can either make one weapon
attack or, if applicable, roll an additional damage dice from
that cantrip and add it to the total damage.
Ill Omen
Starting at 7th Level, you portend harm to yourself and see
how to suffer the least harm. When an attacker that you can
see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to
expend one Rite to halve the attack's damage against you.
Hold Fast
Beginning at 10th level, you've trained your body to go
withstand certain area effects, such as a white dragon's
freezing breath or a cloudkill spell's poison gases. When you
are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a
Constitution saving throw to take only half damage, you
instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw,
and only half damage if you fail.

.
Endless Pursuit
At 18th level, magic suffuses your every step. Your speed
cannot be decreased by difficult terrain, spells, being
underwater, or other effects and you cannot be restrained. By
spending 5 feet of movement, you can automatically escape
from being grappled.
Additionally, if you pass beyond this mortal veil and die,
your deity wills you back from death with 1 hit point; this can
occur no more than once per week.
Divine Blessing
When you reach 20th level, you are able to forsee how best to
serve your deity by choosing a blessing. At the end of a long
rest, choose from one of the blessings below, you carry this
blessing until you finish your next long rest.
Dragon's Strength: You have advantage on three Strength
ability checks or saves of your choice, cannot be knocked
prone or disarmed, and add 2 damage to each melee or
ranged attack.
Fey's Grace: You have advantage on three Dexterity ability
checks or saves of your choice, gain 10 feet of movement
speed, and do not take fall damage when falling from 100 feet
or less as long as you aren't incapcitated.
Old One's Endurance: You have advantage on three
Constitution ability checks or saves of your choice, and gain
30 temporary hit points.
Lich's Cunning: You have advantage on three Intelligence
ability checks or saves of your choice, and gain resistance to
psychic damage.
Angel's Wisdom: You have advantage on three Wisdom
ability checks or saves of your choice, and you have Truesight
out to 10 feet.
Devil's Charm: You have advantage on three Charisma
ability checks or saves of your choice, and can ignore the
verbal and somatic components of a spell once when casting
a spell.

Maven of the Brightened Spirit
Bringers of hope and renewal, the Mavens of the Brightened
Spirit help lighten the darkest of times. Although all seekers
tend towards darkness to hide their movements, Seekers that

repetitive dances or deep breathing.

Spirit of the Light
At 3rd level, you are blessed with a beneficent spirit from your
patron. When casting healing spirit, either with a spell slot
and using a Rite or by casting the spell as a Rite, healing
spirit changes, as below:
The spirit appears in a form you choose that represents
your deity.
This spell doesn’t require concentration; it ends either
after a minute has passed since casting it, when you
choose (as a free action), or you fall unconscious.
When you cast this spell, choose either a skill or a save,
when you heal someone with this spell, the healed target
has advantage on that skill or save you chose until the
spirit heals another target or the spell ends.
Hostile creatures within a 10 foot radius of the Spirit
cannot benefit from advantage on attacks or ability
checks.

patron! Once per long rest, you may spend three Rites to cast
either divine word, heal, or sunbeam. When the spell ends,
you cannot move or take actions until after your next turn, as
you experience the elation of your diety's force moving
through you.

Blessed Bond
At 3rd level, you become adept at finding the truths within the
lies and seeing what makes your enemies tic. By using a
bonus action, you can magically mark a sentient creature you
can see within 60 feet, gaining insight into their mind. The
target makes a Wisdom saving throw with a DC equal to your
spell save DC. A creature can willingly choose to fail this
save. On a successful save, you discern that this magic failed
but the target is unaware of the attempt. On a failed save, for
the next 10 minutes you gain the following bonuses against
this target:
You know what the creature is known as commonly, such
as how the creature would introduce themselves to a
friendly acquaintance.
You know their exact location. If the creature travels to a
different plane, you know which plane they went to.
You have advantage on Insight checks against the target.
Once before the end of this effect, if the creature is
brought to 0 hit points, you can use your reaction to have
your deity stabilize the creature. Instead of dying, the
creature is at 1 hit point and paralyzed until the end of
your next turn. After stabilizing a creature in this way, you
have advantage on Charisma ability checks against the
creature until they have taken a rest.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your
Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all
expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.

Optional Rule: Multiclassing
If your group uses the optional rule on multiclassing in the
Player’s Handbook (p. 163), here’s what you need to know if
you choose seeker as one of your classes.
Ability Score Minimum: As a multiclass character, you
must have at least an Intelligence score of 13 to take a level
in this class.
Proficiencies Gained: If seeker isn’t your initial class, here
are the proficiencies you gain when you take your first level
as a seeker: light armor, shields, thieves’ tools, and one
fortune telling device/set.
Extra/Destined Strike: The Destined Strike feature at
level 6 is a separate action from Extra Attack, thus cannot be
used interchangeably.
Spell Slots: Add your levels in the seeker class to the
appropriate levels from other classes to determine your
available spell slots.
Rites: Only spells that appear on the seeker spell list and
that are prepared may use Rites as a method of casting them.
Seeker Feats
Pass yourself as a prophet that the world needs, see hints of
the future and change the outcome, let the work you put in
truly speak show the world what you can do, or find what you
have been hunting for with these feats!
False Prophet
Your words can carry weight to those susceptible enough to
your fraudulent ways. You can even be so convincing that fate
itself twists to meet your false prophecies.
You gain proficiency in the Deception skill. If you are
already proficient in the skill, you add double your
proficiency bonus to checks you make with it.
You learn the cantrip thaumaturgy and can cast it without
using components.
As an action, choose one creature who can hear you and
prophesize either good or bad fortunes. Make a Charisma
(Deception) check contested by the target's Wisdom
(Insight) check. You make your roll with disadvantage if
the target does not understand the language you speak
your fortune in. If your check succeeds, your target is
convinced by your words and treats the next 1 that they
roll as a 20 if you predicted good fortunes or the next 20
that they roll as a 1 if you predicted bad fortune. Whether
or not the target is convinced, once you use this feature,
you cannot use this again until you finish a short or long
rest.
Oracle
You see brief glimpses of what is to come and how to twist
fate.
When you finish a long rest, roll a d20 and record the
number rolled. You can replace any attack roll, saving
throw, or ability check made by you or a creature that you
can see with the foretold roll; you must choose to do so
before the roll and must wait until the end of your next
long rest to roll a new foretelling roll.
As a reaction, when you see a creature making an ability
check or saving throw, decide if they will have good or ill
fortune prior to the roll. Until the start of your next turn,
choose whether that creature has a d4 added to or
subtracted from all ability checks and saving throws they
make. After changing fortunes twice, you cannot use this
feature again until you complete a short or long rest.
Seeker's Practice
To be good is not good enough. You trained harder and that
practice shows.
You gain proficiency in a skill and the ability score
associated with that skill increases by 1 to a maximum of
20.
When you use the ability score chosen in the first part of
this feat to make either an ability check or a saving throw
you may choose to add a d4 bonus prior to making your
roll. You may use this feature a number of times equal to
your proficiency modifier before needing to take a long
rest to recover.
Seeker's Quarry
No matter the odds, the gentle breath of fate can guide you to
that which you seek.
You have advantage on Intelligence (Investigation),
Wisdom (Perception), and Wisdom (Survival) checks
made to follow or track a creature.
You learn the hunter's mark spell and can cast it without a
spell slot, and you must finish a long rest before you can
cast it in this way again. You can also cast hunter's mark
using any spell slots you have.
By spending 1 minute performing a magical ceremony (as
if you were concentrating on a spell) name a specific
creature or object that is familiar to you. You sense the
direction to your target's location, as long as that target is
within 5 miles of you. If the creature or object you named
is in a different form, such as being under the effects of a
polymorph spell, this ability doesn’t locate the target.

Reading The Weave
Each Seeker manifests their magic in a different
way, usually specific to their specialty. Players are
encouraged to create a manifestation that feels
right for their character.
It is common for Mavens of the Cunning Eye to
show their third eye when using Divination
magic.
Animal noises can be heard faintly when a
Maven of the Bitter Heart uses cursing magic.
A warming glow that does not cast shadows
can be seen when a Maven of the Brightened
Spirit heals those they care for.
Mavens of the Cutting Tongue might have a
glowing mouth when using a spell with just
verbal components.
Lurking Hand Seekers might have fingers that
seem to twist with extra joints when
empowering their weapons with smiting magic.
Shifting constellation tattoos have been seen
on the skin of Roaming Step Seekers when they
are journeying from one destination to another.
If you look close, the words of a Seeker of the
Rotting Voice can be seen faintly floating in the
air when they are casting Enchantment magic.
Mavens of the Shifting Flesh have roiling and
undulating skin and joints that make one feel
uncomfortable, generally, when they use
Transmutation magics.

Design Decisions
Why the heck did I do the things I did? In an attempt to
address some of the things that are coming up, I will start
posting some thoughts:
Rites
Bards get bardic inspiration, clerics get divine channeling,
druids get wild shape, sorcerer’s get sorcery points, wizards
get arcane recovery, Warlocks are different, we don’t talk
about them here.
The seeker’s rites fill a role as a consumable resource and
allow one to cast magic more often but slowly, something that
is unique to the class. This is partially thematic as well as
useful: a class with a focus on divination prepares for what
comes next with a short ritual casting of a spell that will
hopefully be useful. Subclasses that are heavy utilizers of
Rites tend to have access to more quicker results and don’t
have as much left for slower casting spells.
Spell List
This spell list focuses on utility, as the seeker itself is
supposed to fulfill the class role of The Expert, the one that
can reliably crush skill tests and has an answer to non-
fighting situations. With the flavor of this class, I chose to
draw from all spell lists. With each spell, I asked a few
questions:
Will this help the character move easily through the world?
Examples include misty step, passwall, tree stride
Will this help the character acquire information or lock
down a target? examples include detect magic, hunter’s mark,
ensnaring strike, and locate creature/object*
Will this directly add to the character’s ability to overcome
skill tests? Examples include enhance ability, knock, skill
empowerment
Does this indirectly fall into the category of 1 or 2?
Examples are a bit more difficult but include suggestion, tiny
hut, tongues, water breathing, fabricate and disintegrate for
traversing the world; find familiar, mind spike, spirit shroud,
true sight, and maze for learning info or sequestering a
target.
Is it utility or supportive? Examples are darkness, intellect
fortress, aura of purity
Is it a slow cast spell that feels in the realm of categories 1-
5? Examples include prayer of healing, plant growth, and
wind walk.
This list does not include options for damaging baddies
directly, but there are some amazing combos with haste,
spirit shroud, and otherworldly guise along with the class
feature Destined Strike that can give your character some
ability to really help you be a front line fighter if you wish it.
Along with this, yes you might have to drop concentration
during combat, but with your ability to cast spells as Rites out
of combat, that should help make up for the dropped
concentration.
Destined Strike
Full casters get options to do two attacks in the same round
through certain subclasses, think bards, hexblades,
bladesingers, etc. Destined Strike allows for seekers to
choose whether they want to cast a cantrip, whether
damaging like BB or chill touch, or a non-damaging one like
minor illusion or mold earth. It is supposed to be a limited
and flexible version of a 2nd attack and akin to the Cleric’s
Divine Strike. I believe that the combination of having access
to spells that increase damage of strikes, like hunter’s mark
and spirit shroud, can allow for characters to play as a gish-
lite that has awesome utility options, a utility/support caster
that buffs and protects the party, or even be a main front line
fighter with the Cutting Tongue, Lurking Hand, and Shifting
Flesh subclasses. Thematically, the seeker is a class that uses
magic to enhance its own physicality, Destined Strike helps
reflect that.
