Spirit Conjurer

Ancestry of Connection

Spirit conjurers summon the spirits of their ancestors to assist them in their adventures. These spirits take the form of a creature in death, allowing them to pass seamlessly from the spirit world into the land of mortals. As a child, a person trained in the art of using your ancestor's spirits typically forms a bond with their own manifestation of spirit, called different things in different cultures and languages. This "spirit animal" can help you at any time, and as you grow in power, your spirit becomes stronger. As your ancestor's spirits stay in the spirit world, they grow in power and only the most skilled conjurers can summon them into the land of mortals. Newly departed spirits are weaker and can be summoned with ease. Adventure and maybe you can become strong enough to bring your most powerful ancestor spirits into the world for your enemies to fear!

Special Grade Summon

At 1st level, if you spend one hour meditating and casting a special summoning ritual, you gain the service of a powerful creature, called a "Guardian", "Spirit Animal", "Familiar" or other such name. This "Guardian" looks and acts however you wish, it appears in an unoccupied space within 10 feet and has a type that matches the subclass you chose. Your guardian acts independently of you, but it always obeys your commands. In combat, it rolls it's own initiative and acts on it's own turn. When the guardian drops to 0 hit points, it is knocked unconscious and remains for 1 minute. After that time, it disappears if it has not gained at least 1 hit point in that time. If it disappears, you must use this ritual again to re-summon it. As an action, you can dismiss your guardian into the spirit world where it awaits your command, and you can summon it back only using an action.

The stats for the special grade summon are as follows. ("prof." refers to your proficiency bonus)

Tiny, small or medium 
AC- 10 +prof.
Hit points- 4x your level.
Speed- 30
Str-10 Dex-10 Con-10 Int-10 Wis-10 Cha-10
Senses- Passive Perception 10
Languages- All the languages that you speak
Challenge- N/A
The guardian has the following action
Unarmed strike- +prof. to hit. 1d6 bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage (choose when you choose how it looks)

_____________________________________ The subclasses add extra features to it, but for now, you may add up to 18 ability score points onto its base stats and change them accordingly. You can spend ability score points to add land speed (2 points per 5 extra), a flying, swimming, burrowing, or climbing speed (4 points for 20 feet, 2 per 5 feet extra), darkvision (1 point per 30 feet), or AC (3 points per +1)

Whenever you would get an ability score improvement, your guardian does also.

Summon Specialty

At 1st. level, you chose a summon specialty, a distinction of which type of creature you are the most skilled at summoning. Choose between Aberration, Beast, Celestial, Construct, Dragon, Elemental, Fey, Fiend, Giant, Humanoid, Monstrosity, Ooze, Plants, or Undead, all detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 1st level and again at 4th, 7th, 10th, 13th, and 16th level. This choice also decides what type your guardian is. Any creature of the type you chose that you summon can add your proficiency modifier to it's attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks that it is proficient in. It also has a number of temporary hit points equal to twice your spirit conjurer level when you summon it.

Save DC and modifier
