Druidic
You know Druidic, the secret language of druids. You can speak it and use it to leave hidden messages. You and other who know this language automatically spot such a message. Others spot the presence of such a message with a successful DC 15 Wisdom (Perception) check but can't decipher it without magic.Wild Shape
At 2nd level, you can use your action to magically assume the form of a beast you have seen before. You can use this feature twice. You regain expended use when you finish a short or long rest. Your druid level determines the beasts you can turn into, as shown on the table below. You can stay in this form for a number of hours equal to half your druid level (rounded down). You then revert to your normal form unless you expend another use of this feature. You may revert back to your normal form earlier by using a bonus action on your turn. You automatically convert if you fall unconscious, drop to 0 hit points, or die.| Level | Max. CR | Limitations | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2nd | 1/4 | No flying or swimming speed | Wolf |
| 4th | 1/2 | No flying speed | Crocodile |
| 8th | 1 | — | Giant Eagle |
Druid Circle
You choose the circle from which you draw your connection to the world at this level. This choice grants you features at 2nd, 6th, 10th, and 14th level.Ability Score Improvement
At 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or increase two ability scores by 1 each. As usual, you cannot increase an ability score above 20 using this ability. Alternatively, you can choose to gain a single feat of your choice.Timeless Body
At 18th level, the primal magic you wield slows down your aging. For every 10 years that pass, you only age 1 year.Beast Spells
At 18th level, you can cast many of your spells while in a shape assumed by using Wild Shape. You can provide somatic and verbal components of a druid spell while in a beast shape, but you cannot provide material components.Archdruid

Spellcasting
Cantrips
You know two cantrips from the Druid Spell List. You learn an additional cantrip at 4th and 10th level.Preparing and Casting Spells
The table above shows how many spell slots you have to cast spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of druid spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the druid spell list. When you do so, choose a number of spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your druid level (min. 1 spell). These must be of a level for which you have spell slots. You may change your list of prepared spells whenever you finish a long rest; doing so requires 1 minute of prayer or meditation per spell level of the chosen the spells.Spellcasting Ability
Wisdom is your casting ability for druid spells. Your magic comes from your devotion and attunement to nature. When a spell refers to your spellcasting ability, you use Wisdom. In addition, you use your Wisdom to determine the save DC of any druid spell which requires one, 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 modifierRitual Casting
You may cast any druid spell you have prepared as a ritual if it has the ritual tag. A spell cast as a ritual takes an additional 10 minutes to cast, but does not require you to expend a spell slot.Spellcasting Focus
You may use a druidic focus as a spellcasting focus for your spells. Druidic foci include mistletoe, totem carvings, yew wands, or oaken staves.Subclass Options
Circle of Dreams
Balm of the Summer Court
At 2nd level, you become imbued with the blessings of the Summer Court. You are a font of energy that offers respite from injuries. You have a pool of fey energy represented by a number of d6s equal to your druid level. As a bonus action, you can choose an ally you can see within 120 feet of you and spend a number of those dice equal to half your druid level or less. Roll the spent dice and add them together. The target regains a number of hit points equal to the total. The target also gains 1 temporary hit point per die spent. You regain the expended dice when you finish a long rest.Hearth of Moonlight and Shadow
At 6th level, home can be wherever you are. During a short or long rest, you can invoke the shadowy power of the Gloaming Court to help guard your respite. At the start of the rest, you touch a point in space, and an invisible, 30-foot-radius sphere of magic appears, centered on that point. Total cover blocks the sphere. While within the sphere, you and your allies gain a +5 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth) and Wisdom (Perception) checks, and any light from open flames in the sphere (a campfire, torches, or the like) isn't visible outside it. The sphere vanishes at the end of the rest or when you leave the sphere.Hidden Paths
Starting at 10th level, you can use the hidden, magical pathways that some fey use to traverse space in a blink of an eye. As a bonus action on your turn, you can teleport up to 60 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. Alternatively, you can use your action to teleport one willing creature you touch up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.Walker in Dreams
At 14th level, the magic of the Feywild grants you the ability to travel mentally or physically through dreamlands. When you finish a short rest, you can cast one of the following spells, without expending a spell slot or requiring material components: Dream (with you as the messenger), Scrying, or Teleportation Circle. This use of Teleportation Circle is special. Rather than opening a portal to a permanent teleportation circle, it opens a portal to the last location where you finished a long rest on your current plane of existence. If you haven't taken a long rest on your current plane, the spell fails but isn't wasted. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.Circle of Land
Bonus Cantrip
When you choose this circle at 2nd level, you learn one additional druid cantrip of your choice.Natural Recovery
Starting at 2nd level, you can regain some of your magical energy by sitting in meditation and communing with nature. During a short rest, you choose expended spell slots to recover. The spell slots can have a combined level that is equal to or less than half your druid level (rounded up), and none of the slots can be 6th level or higher. You can’t use this feature again until you finish a long rest For example, when you are a 4th-level druid, you can recover up to two levels worth of spell slots. You can recover either a 2nd-level slot or two 1st-level slots.Circle Spells
Your mystical connection to the land infuses you with the ability to cast certain spells. At 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level you gain access to circle spells connected to the land where you became a druid. Choose that land—arctic, coast, desert, forest, grassland, mountain, swamp, or Underdark—and consult the associated list of spells. Once you gain access to a circle spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesn’t appear on the druid spell list, the spell is nonetheless a druid spell for you.| Druid Level | Coast Spells | Desert Spells | Forest Spells | Grassland Spells | Mountain Spells | Swamp Spells |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3rd | mirror image, misty step | blur, silence | barkskin, spider climb | invisibility, pass without trace | spider climb, spike growth | darkness, melf's acid arrow |
| 5th | water breathing, water walk | create food and water, protection from energy | call lightning, plant growth | daylight, haste | lightning bolt, meld into stone | water walk, stinking cloud |
| 7th | control water, freedom of movement | blight, hallucinatory terrain | divination, freedom of movement | divination, freedom of movement | stone shape, stoneskin | freedom of movement, locate creature |
| 9th | conjure elemental, scrying | insect plague, wall of stone | commune with nature, tree stride | dream, insect plague | passwall, wall of stone | insect plague, scrying |
Land's Stride
Starting at 6th level, moving through nonmagical difficult terrain costs you no extra movement. You can also pass through nonmagical plants without being slowed by them and without taking damage from them if they have thorns, spines, or a similar hazard. In addition, you have advantage on saving throws against plants that are magically created or manipulated to impede movement, such those created by the entangle spell.Nature's Ward
When you reach 10th level, you can’t be charmed or frightened by elementals or fey, and you are immune to poison and disease.Nature's Sanctuary
When you reach 14th level, creatures of the natural world sense your connection to nature and become hesitant to attack you. When a beast or plant creature attacks you, that creature must make a Wisdom saving throw against your druid spell save DC. On a failed save, the creature must choose a different target, or the attack automatically misses. On a successful save, the creature is immune to this effect for 24 hours. The creature is aware of this effect before it makes its attack against you.Circle of Leaves
Gaia's Protection
At 2nd level, druids of the circle of leaves gain limited control over plants and vegetation around them. As an action, you may cause the vegetable matter in a 15 foot radius around a point you can see to swell with vegetable growth. Any creatures in this area must make a Wisdom saving throw to notice the growing vegetation before it ensnares them; on a failure, the targets are grappled and restrained. Creatures caught in this way may make a Strength saving throw at the beginning of each of their turns to break free. Fire damage equal to twice your level also frees any restrained creatures in the growth. On each of your turns when a creature is grappled, you may use your bonus action to attempt to move any creature caught in the vegetation by up to 15 feet in a single direction. The creature may make a Dexterity save to attempt to resist this movement. If the movement would take the creature out of the range of the vegetation growth, the creature is hurled the remaining distance and is no longer restrained or grappled. After you have used this ability, you may not use it again until you have completed a long rest.Hamadryadic Transformation
At 6th level, you can temporarily transform yourself into or out of tree form. As an action, you may transform yourself into a tree of up to 10 feet in height and with a trunk of up to 1 foot in diameter. While in tree form, you gain 100 temporary hit through the features of the tree: your eyes become knots in the trunk, you smell and breathe through your leaves, etc. While a tree, you cannot take any action that requires movement, communicate verbally, or cast any spell requiring verbal or somatic components. As an action, you may transfer back out of tree form, at which point you lose any temporary hit points you have remaining. If you have not transformed already, you also revert to your prior form after 8 hours. After you have used this ability, you may not use it again until you have completed a short or long rest.Dryad's Soul
At 10th level, the sturdiness of the dryads’ and hamadryads’ trees infuses your soul. You gain proficiency in Constitution saving throws. Additionally, your frame is reinforced as if by wood: your AC cannot be lower than 16, regardless of the armor you are wearing.Apple of the Hesperides
At 14th level, you gain the power to create golden apples that alter a mortal’s fate. Creating a single apple requires an hour of effort, and the magic from each apple returns to you when you take a long rest, leaving the apple a withered husk. Consuming an apple requires an action, unless noted otherwise. You may only have one apple in existence at any given time. When you create an apple, you may choose from the following options: Apple of Healing. When placed to a living creature’s lips, this apple restores half of a creatures’ maximum hit points and ends all non-magical diseases and poisons afflicting them. This apple may also be used on a creature that has been dead for less than five years, via an hour-long ritual in which the apple, along with 500 gp worth of gold or quicksilver, is melted and poured over the remains. The creature so impacted is revived with half of their maximum hit points and -2 to all of their ability scores. After each long rest, one of the creature’s ability scores improve by 1 until the penalty is erased. Apple of War. When consumed, this apple grants martial prowess. For one minute after the apple is consumed, the eater gains advantage on all attacks, ability checks, and saving throws. Apple of Magic. When consumed, this apple restores a spellcaster’s spell slot of 6th level or below. It may also be used to grant a warlock a second casting of a mystic arcanum spell of 6th level. If you die after creating an apple, the apple’s magic does not return to you, and the apple permanently becomes an apple of discord.Circle of the Moon
Combat Wildshape
At 2nd level, you gain the ability to use Wild Shape on your turn as a bonus action, rather than an action. Additionally, when you are transformed by Wild Shape, you can use a bonus action to expend one spell slot to regain 1d8 hit points per level of the spell slot expended.Circle Forms
At 2nd level, you can use your Wild Shape to transform into a beast with a CR as high as 1. You must abide by the other limitations of Wild Shape. At 6th level, you can transform into any beast with a CR equal to or less than your druid level divided by 3 (round down).Primal Strike
At 6th level, your attacks in beast form count as magical for the purposes of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.Elemental Wild Shape
At 10th level, you can expend two uses of your wild shape at the same time to transform into an air elemental, earth elemental, fire elemental, or water elemental.Thousand Forms
At 14th level, you may alter your form in more subtle ways. You can cast the alter self spell at will.| Lvl | Proficiency Bonus | Features | Cantrips Known | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th | 7th | 8th | 9th |
