Enchanter (5e Class)
Enchanter[edit]
Enchanters are known for their many beneficial magics, granting powerful abilities to their allies, and detrimental debuffs to their enemies. An enchanter or enchantress often brings many things to a party, with their powerful protective magic. And even though their offensive power is lack-luster at best, the aid, strength, and fortitude they grant to their allies makes them a force to be reckoned with. Many enchanters are of fey descent, but other more specialized enchanters can still bring many aspects to a party. Some gain the knowledge from their vampiric ancestors to enchant their own physical form to take the role as a front-line defender. Some are in tune with their fiendish blood, calling forth harsh inferno magics and trading out supportive power for deadly spells, enchanting their own spells to deal massive effects. Whatever an enchanters niche, there's no doubting they'll always be a solid and reliable member to have in any well-rounded group.
The Wisp Who Bid Willow's Will[edit]
A brawny elfish man and a frail human woman stood backed into a corner, stuck between a fence and a horde of hungry man eating ogres, the man turns to his wife to bid her farewell, when suddenly a sparkle of hope rings in his ear, and he knows his legacy is not over yet. He takes a stand, wielding strength he knows is not his own. He cuts down every last ogre one by one till their hearts beat no more, and turning to his wife, embracing her to apologize to her for the nightmares she'll forever be haunted by, for their daughter's blood-stained clothes still in the teeth of one of the now de-collated ogre's skulls, the fresh crimson scent horrifying the poor woman. He looks to the skies and speaks "Oh great being who gave me your blessing, my wife and I thank you for saving us from such horrible demise." When suddenly he hears foot steps, he turns to see a short fey woman, covered in vines. A small wolf cub by her side carrying a medal in its muzzle, made of an arcane wood, with a vine necklace and a small blue crystal in it's center. She takes the medallion from her canine companion and steps forwards "No Lumigar, that strength was not mine, nor am I a being any greater than you, a simple halfling I am... I gave you no strength, but purely the courage to draw your sword and believe in yourself..." And as she hands him the wooden framed crystal, the man watches it shine, and the daughter he loved dearly, reborn yet still as pure as ever, returned to the mothers arms, and before he could turn to thank the spirit. She was gone without a trace, leaving the man and his wife to live alone... In peace.
Creating an Enchanter[edit]
The enchanter is intended to act as purely a support class. (With the exception of it's subclass The Inferno Fiend) The base class has access to very little damaging spells and features, in-trade for a wide variety of healing and utility spells, along with a skill set focused on buffing as many allies as possible and debuffing as many hostiles as possible. The class is subject to change if balance is a problem.

Spellcasting[edit]
As a descendant of a being of mythical nature, you sparkle slightly, emanating with glimpses of your ancestors power.

- Spellcasting Ability
Your spellcasting ability for your enchanter spells is decided by your ancestral decent. 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 an enchanter spell you cast 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 modifier
Mythic Descent[edit]
At 1st level, you choose a Mythic Descent. Choose between the ones listed in Ancestries. Your choice grants you features at 1st, 6th, 10th, 14th, and 18th levels.
Mythic Spark[edit]
At 2nd level you gain a ring of mythic sparks. You have 3 at 2nd level and gain more as you level, as shown on the mythic spark table. Mythic sparks are crystallized shards of energy that gently float within 5-feet of you, they're intangible and immune to all damage, their appearance is that of a small gem or crystal, they can only be touched or held by you and creatures you choose, all other attempts to interact with them by other creatures simply phase through them. Mythic sparks are the root of the enchanters powers and can even be used to empower themselves and their allies, in addition to uses mentioned by your class features, you can spend mythic sparks in the following ways:
- Empower
As an action you can expend a number of mythic sparks up to your proficiency bonus and fuse the sparks' energy into yourself or a willing creature within 60 feet, the creature may then add double the number of mythic sparks expended to any one attack roll, ability check, saving throw, or damage roll of their choice within the next hour, after which the spark's energy fades.
Additionally, when you reach 7th level, you can use Empower as a reaction when a creature within range makes an attack roll, ability check, saving throw, or damage roll. The target must be the one who triggered this effect.
- Alleviate
As an action you can expend a number of mythic sparks up to your proficiency bonus, turning them into a fine mist that you can blow in a 30-foot cone or toss up in a 15-foot radius around yourself. Creatures of your choice within range regain hit points equal to 1d4 + your spellcasting ability modifier per mythic spark expended. At the end of your turn, the mist begins to linger in the air for a number of rounds equal to your proficiency bonus, and allied creatures regain hit points equal to the number of mythic sparks expended whenever they enter the mist for the first time on their turn or start their turn within it.
You regain all expended mythic sparks when you finish a long rest.

The spirit can speak telepathically to you. The creature takes the form of any beast with a size of medium or smaller (Rabbit, fox, cat, badger, ferret, jackal, deer, scorpion, raven, wolf, etc.) The creature is instantly teleported to any unoccupied space within 5-feet of you if it goes more than 30-feet away from you. The spirit does not benefit from the stats or features of the beast it takes form as.
Upon reaching 9th level, when a spell or effect requires concentration from you, your spirit guardian is capable of holding concentration instead. To be eligible, a spell must be incapable of targeting more than one creature at the spell’s current level. You make concentration checks as normal to maintain concentration with your spirit guardian when you are damaged, making a single concentration check at disadvantage if both you and your spirit guardian are holding concentrating simultaneously.

The Seed Mother[edit]
The descendants of The Seed Mother were peaceful nature beings with connections to the forest rivaled only by druids, although not as spiritually bound to the creatures of the wild as they are. They were much more linked to the forest, tending to the trees and plants so that they may grow strong and one day aid them in their time of need.
