Inquisitor[edit]
An inquisitor is an official in an Inquisition; an organization or program intended to eliminate heresy and other things contrary to the doctrine or teachings of the faith of that organization. Literally, an inquisitor is one who "searches out" or "inquires". It is also possible to be exiled from the Order, if you are deemed unworthy, a Heretic, or have been proven to be harboring enemies of the Order. This can either be a preset or done in game, and from then on you will be marked with (exiled) in your class description.

Spellcasting[edit]
Being an Inquisitor, you have a great knowledge of the Arcane powers, even if you are seeking to destroy it. You have a spellbook containing spells that show the first glimmerings of your true power. See chapter 10 for the general rules of spellcasting and chapter 11 for the cleric and wizard spell list.
- Cantrips
At 1st level, you know four cantrips of your choice from the cleric or wizard spell list. You learn additional cleric or wizard cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Inquisitor table.
- Spellbook
At 1st level, you have a spellbook containing six 1st-level cleric or wizard spells of your choice.
- Preparing and Casting Spells
The Inquisitor table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.
You prepare the list of cleric or wizard spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the cleric or wizard spell list. When you do so, choose a number of spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your inquisitor level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
For example, if you are a 3rd-level inquisitor, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Wisdom of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell cure wounds, you can cast it using a 1st-level or 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn’t remove it from your list of prepared spells.
You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of cleric or wizard spells requires time spent in prayer and meditation: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.
- Spellcasting Ability
Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your inquisitor spells. The power of your spells comes from your devotion to your deity. You use your Wisdom whenever a inquisitor spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a inquisitor 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
- Ritual Casting
You can cast a inquisitor spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.
- Spellcasting Focus
You can use a holy symbol (found in chapter 5) as a spellcasting focus for your inquisitor spells.
Divine Power[edit]
At 1st level, you receive divine gifts from the gods to your usage. These divine gifts are represented by divine powers, which allow you to create a variety of holy miracles.

You can never have more divine points than shown on the table for your level.

Flexible Casting[edit]
You can use your divine points to gain additional spell slots, or sacrifice spell slots to gain additional divine points. You learn other ways to use your divine points as you reach higher levels.
- Creating Spell Slots. You can transform unexpended divine points into one spell slot as a bonus action on your turn. The Creating Spell Slots table shows the cost of creating a spell slot of a given level. You can create spell slots no higher in level than 5th.

When you use your Channel Divinity, you choose which effect to create. You must then finish a short or long rest to use your Channel Divinity again. Some Channel Divinity effects require saving throws. When you use such an effect from this class, the DC equals your inquisitor spell save DC.
Beginning at 6th level, you can use your Channel Divinity twice between rests, and beginning at 18th level, you can use it three times between rests. When you finish a short or long rest, you regain your expended uses.
