Spellcasting

Preparing and Casting spells

The Blue Mage table shows how much MP you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend MP to create a spell slot of a given level, as shown in the table below. You cannot create a spell slot that exceeds your maximum spell level, as shown in the Blue Mage Table. You can't reduce your MP total to less than 0, and you regain all spent MP when you finish a long rest.

Spell Level	MP Cost
1st	2
2nd	3
3rd	5
4th	6
5th	7
6th	9
7th	10

Spellcasting Ability

Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your spells. The power of your magic relies on your ability to analyze the essences of creatures you absorb. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Blue Mage spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

• Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency modifier + your Wisdom modifier.
• Spell attack modifier = your proficiency modifier + your Wisdom modifier.

Spellcasting Focus

You can use a one-handed weapon as a spellcasting focus for your blue mage spells. When you do so, you can also use the weapon in place of the somatic component of the spell.

Traits

Due to the varied nature of your abilities, you can learn to incorporate other fighting styles into your fighting granting you bonuses. At 1st level you can learn 4 traits. You learn two more at 4th level, and two more every 3 levels onwards. You can only gain the benefits of two traits at a time. You can gain benefits of more traits as you level, gaining a third at level 3, a fourth at level 6, a fifth at level 9 and a sixth at level 15. You can change which traits are active during a short or long rest. You may swap one learned trait with another whenever you gain a level. Starting at 5th level you may choose to forgo a trait to gain access to a monster trait.

Learning

You can use your bonus action to try to absorb the essence of a creature you can see within 60 feet of you. The target makes a Constitution saving throw against your spell save dc. On a failed save, you gain a azure lore spell. The target automatically fails the saving throw if it is incapacitated. If the target is distracted such as under a debilitating condition, or you are flanking the creature, that creature has disadvantage on the saving throw. When you go to gain a spell to learn, if you have seen the creature use an ability you may choose to gain that ability if you meet the prerequisites. Otherwise, you gain a random spell that you meet the prerequisites for if there are any. The DM may choose which spell you gain if you did not see an ability occur. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your proficiency modifier, before requiring a long rest. Starting at 5th level, you can instead choose to copy a monster's trait, such as a goblin's nimble escape. This then replaces one of your current traits.

Azure Lore

Starting at 2nd level, you can can use your knowledge of blue magic to manipulate your magic. Starting at 2nd level you gain two Azure Lore abilities. You use MP in order to use these abilities. You can use an azure lore ability with cantrips, causing them to cost MP. At 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 14th and 16th level you gain a new Azure Lore effect from the list below. All Azure Lore abilities take a bonus action to use unless specified otherwise. When you gain a level you may swap out a learned azure lore ability with another. You can only apply one azure lore abilities on a single spell. You can add additional azure lore abilities when you reach 3rd level, 6th level, 8th level, 10th level, 12th level and 14th level. If an azure lore allows you do increase or add numbers for damage, this can apply to healing spells as well.
