Dilettante Introduction[edit]
Your blessing and your curse is that you can do everything well. You are better than most people at nearly every subject and activity. You can fight, cast spells, learn skills, learn languages, write sonnets, compose music, sing, paint, and study knowledge with equal facility. You are a prodigy. This is also your curse. An excited interest in all things has lead you to be able to do every one of them a little, since you only have time to learn a small part of every thing. Time is your enemy, and you have taken shortcuts in your learning.

Dilettante Versatility[edit]
At 1st level, you have an extremely versatile skill set. You learn three Versatility Features you can choose from the list below, learning more as you gain levels in this class.
You can't choose a versatility feature more than once.
Magic Dabbler[edit]
Starting at 2nd level, you develop a rudimentary understanding of all magical fields. You can memorize a number of spells equal to your Intelligence modifier, from any spell list, from the maximum level you can cast, as shown on the Magic Dabbler column on the Dilettante table. You can also choose to memorize a cantrip, each cantrip counts as half 1st-level spell.
Whenever you gain a new level in this class, you can replace one spell you currently have memorized for a new one.
If you encounter a spell on a spell scroll or grimoire from a level you can cast, you can spend 10 minutes per level of the spell, over the course of a long rest, to replace one spell you have memorized for that spell.
You can cast a spell from your memorized spells at its lowest level a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and regain your uses after finishing a long rest. You can also cast the spell using any spell slots you have of the appropriate level.
If you memorize a spell that has the Ritual Tag, you can cast that spell as a ritual.
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for these spells. When you cast a spell, you calculate the save DC and the spell attack bonus as follows:
- Spell Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.
- Spell Attack Bonus = Your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.
Special Interest[edit]
At 3rd level, you gain a special interest. You choose a subclass that allows you to expand your abilities in an area: Naturalist, Divine Servant, Tavern Master, Eternal Warrior, Arcane Savant, or Glorious Scoundrel, all detailed at the end of the class description.

Or in campaigns that use feats, you may learn one feat. As a dilettante, you can't increase an ability score above 16 using this feature unless it is Intelligence. You can't increase this above 22.
Highly Educated[edit]
You have a high level or formal education, and is well versed in a plethora of topics. Starting on 4th level, you add half your proficiency bonus, rounded down, on any ability checks that don't already add your proficiency bonus.
Also at 4th level, whenever you finish a long rest, you gain proficiency in one skill of your choice and with one weapon or tool of your choice, as you study up on some of your numerous notes and take a minute in your mind palace to organize everything. These proficiencies last until the end of your next long rest. Whenever you make a check with the chosen skill, if your roll a 7 or lower, you can choose an 8 instead.
Adaptability[edit]
Starting at 5th level, you become an expert in adapt to any situation. You gain a pool of dice (d6), which are adaptability dice, equal to 1 + your Intelligence modifier.
Whenever you make an attack roll, damage roll, ability check or saving throw, you can add one of these dice to the result. If you take the Help action to help a creature with its ability check, you can spend one die to add to that creature's check or attack.
You can also spend a number of dice to cast a spell you know. You must spend 2 dice for a 1st-level spell, 3 dice for a 2nd-level spell, 4 dice for a 3rd-level spell, 5 dice for a 4th-level spell, and finally 6 dice for a 5th-level spell.
You regain any adaptability die when you finish a short or a long rest.
Advanced Arcana[edit]
When you reach the 7th level, you learn a spell of 4th level or lower from the Artificer, Ranger and Paladin spell lists.
You can use this feature to cast a spell once, regaining your use of it after completing a short or a long rest.
Adaptive Resistance[edit]
Starting at 9th level, when you are forced to make a saving throw with an ability you aren't proficient, you can choose to gain proficiency on that saving throw, lasting until you finish a long rest.
In addition, when you take damage from a damage type you aren't resistant, you can choose to gain resistance to that damage type until you finish a long rest.
You can use each of these features once, and regain the ability to do so after a long rest.
Improved Adaptability[edit]
Starting at 11th level, whenever you roll initiative and have no dice of Adaptability, you gain one die.
In addition, when you finish a short or a long rest, you can spend 1 adaptability die to replace one skill proficiency or memorized spell for a new one, or to learn how to use a tool, speak, read and write a language or play a musical instrument. You keep the learned skill, spell, language or tool until your next rest.
Higher Arcana[edit]
Starting at 13th level, you uncover a powerful magical secret as you deepen your studies into arcane secrets. You learn one spell from the bard, cleric, druid, warlock, sorcerer and wizard spells lists from 6th level or lower.

You also gain a single 6th level spell slot, which you can use to cast the chosen spell, or any other you have memorized. At 15th level you gain a 7th level spell slot and finally at 17th level you gain an 8th level spell slot. Once you use any of these spell slots, you can't use them again until you finish a long rest.
Genius of the Age[edit]
At 18th level, whenever you finish a long rest, you can choose one of the following benefits, that last until your next long rest:
- You can choose two skills. You become proficient in those skills, and whenever you roll a number under the ability score related to that skill, you can choose that number instead.
- You can choose one spell of 1st-level you know that doesn't need material components with a cost in gp and that require an action to cast. The spell can't recover hit points. You can cast the chosen spell at will, without spending spell slots.
- You can choose another spell from any spell list to memorize in place of one you currently have memorized.
Paragon[edit]
When you reach the 20th level, you are considered the greatest example of your kind. You are considered as important as an entire city or kingdom. People come from all over the world to hear your wisdom. Kingdoms send ambassadors to meet with you. Should you wish to become a king or queen, there is probably a kingdom or at least a major city that wishes to recruit you as their ruler, even from halfway across the world.

Special Interests[edit]
