- Spellcasting
You have "Empty" spell slots to limit the amount of spells you can cast, These return once upon a long rest. You may only cast abilities of creatures you’ve Arcane Stalked, You may choose a lower level of spell you have seen casted by the target you're mimicking. When casting a spell in a transformed state, The time of your transformed state is reduced equal to the spell slot level used. For example, Spell slot level 1 removes 1 hour of your total transformed time. Should you not have enough time left, the spell is cast as if it had disadvantage or if it's an effect it automatically fails. Cantrips can be Casted freely whilst in a transformed state.
- Arcane Stalking
Once a creature casts an ability within 120 feet of you, you can use your reaction to make an Intelligence (Arcana) check against the spell save DC of the caster On a success, you learn the ability, Combined with the creature's blood you will be able to cast this ability. Spells learned will dissipate after a long rest, upon consuming the blood of the creature studied you relearn the spells learned of that creature until you use a long rest again. and can only be used with the blood of the creature studied. Should you attempt to learn an ability you have previously learned but another creature is casting it, you may roll your (Arcana) check with advantage.
- Spellcasting Ability
- Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your copied spells, so you use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
