Arcane Soul (5e Subclass)
| Work In Progress |
Arcane Soul[edit]
Sorcerer Subclass
You were born with a rare, instinctive bond to the Weave — a connection so deep it shapes your magic without study or training. Perhaps your lineage traces back to mighty archmages of ages past, their arcane legacy pulsing in your blood. Or maybe the Weave itself marked you at birth.
Whatever the cause, magic flows through you with effortless grace, responding to your will as if it were its own, your magic is raw arcane force, shaped by instinct and presence. The Weave listens when you speak — even if you don’t always know why.
- Weave-Touched
1st-level Arcane Soul feature
Your deep connection with the Weave allows you to learn additional spells from the sorcerer spell list or wizard spell list. These spells are considered sorcerer spells for you. The number of additional spells you know through this feature equals half your sorcerer level, rounded down (minimum of 1).
When you gain a new sorcerer level, you can replace one spell you know through this feature with another spell from the sorcerer or wizard spell list.
- Veil of Arcana
1st-level Arcane Soul feature
The Weave itself inconspicuously protects you from harm. While you aren't wearing armor or wielding a shield, your AC increases by half your proficiency bonus, rounded down.
- Subtle Attunement
6th-level Arcane Soul feature
You are able to manipulate magical energy with fluid efficiency. Whenever you cast a sorcerer spell, you can choose to ignore one of its verbal or somatic components.
- Threadflight
14th-level Arcane Soul feature
Your resonance with the Weave becomes so attuned that the world itself releases its hold on you. As a bonus action, you gain a flying speed of 60 feet for 1 hour or until you cancel it (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest unless you spend 3 sorcery points (no action required) to restore your use of it.
- Heart of Arcana
18th-level Arcane Soul feature
Your bond with the Weave has reached its pinnacle, allowing you to channel its raw power directly into yourself with practiced ease. As a bonus action, you can draw unshaped magical energy from the Weave, gaining a number of sorcery points equal to your Charisma modifier. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
This feature can’t increase your sorcery points above your maximum.
