Casting Spells

To cast a spell, the druid prays to nature.

  • Make a skilled WIS check reduced by the level of the spell being attempted.
    • On a fumble, causes Doubt.
    • On a failure, nothing happens, and it doesn’t count towards casts for the day.
    • On a complicated success, the spell is cast, but something interesting (although not directly dangerous) may happen.
    • On a complete success, the spell casts as expected.
    • On a critical success, the spell works exceptionally well (ex: player may choose to double spell duration, range, or targets).

Doubt

Occurs whenever a fumble occurs while casting a spell.

  • Next attempt to cast spell gets -2 on roll.
  • Cleared by a successful cast.
  • Fumbling while already having Doubt severs connection to nature, preventing spell casting until next day.

Languages

  • Knows a secret language called “Druidic”, known only to other druids.
  • With each level beyond 2nd, learns to speak the language of a creature in the forest.

Stronghold

After 12th level, can build a stronghold that integrates with a natural setting.
