Storm Sorcerer (5e Subclass)
Storm Sorcerer[edit]
Sorcerer Subclass
Your innate magic comes from the power of elemental air. Many with this power can trace their magic back to a near-death experience caused by the Great Rain, but perhaps you were born during a howling gale so powerful that folk still tell stories of it, or your lineage might include the influence of potent air creatures such as djinn. Whatever the case, the magic of the storm permeates your being.
Storm sorcerers are invaluable members of a ship’s crew. Their magic allows them to exert control over wind and weather in their immediate area. Their abilities also prove useful in repelling attacks by sahuagin, pirates, and other waterborne threats.
- Wind Speaker
At 1st level, you gain proficiency in the Nature and Survival skills. You also gain the ability to speak, read, and write Primordial.
- Storm's Resilience
Starting at 1st level, you gain resistance to lightning damage. Additionally, when you are hit by an attack, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll.
- Heart of the Storm
At 6th level, you gain resistance to lightning and thunder damage. In addition, whenever you start casting a spell of 1st level or higher that deals lightning or thunder damage, stormy magic erupts from you. This eruption causes creatures of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of you to take lightning or thunder damage (choose each time this ability activates) equal to half your sorcerer level.
- Storm's Wrath
Starting at 14th level, when you are hit by a melee attack, you can use your reaction to deal lightning damage to the attacker. The damage equals your sorcerer level. The attacker must also make a Strength saving throw against your sorcerer spell save DC. On a failed save, the attacker is pushed in a straight line up to 20 feet away from you.
- Wind Soul
At 18th level, you gain immunity to lightning and thunder damage.
You also gain the ability to command the winds around you. As an action, you can choose a direction for the wind to blow in a 100-foot-radius sphere centered on you. The wind blows in that direction until the end of your next turn. This feature doesn’t alter the speed of the wind.
