For 5e, I've essentially given it a permanent quicken for all of their spells enabling them to cast a cantrip in addition to any other spell. From the War Caster feat, I took the ability to cast a single target spell instead of making an opportunity attack. I feel this fits it into 5e nicely, although it might be interesting to keep the spellweaving ability from earlier editions and allow it to cast a total of 6 spell slot levels, for instance: 4 1st level spells, and 1 2nd level spell. The Chromatic Disk ability is folded into its sorcery point values, allowing it to convert them in the same manner as a sorcerer.SpellweaverMedium aberration, neutralArmour Class: 16 (natural armour)Hit Points: 35 (10d8-10)Speed: 30 feet.STR 9 (-1), DEX 16 (+3), CON 9 (-1), INT 18 (+4), WIS 17 (+3), CHA 16 (+3)Saving Throws: Int +7, Wis +6Skills: Arcana +10, Perception +6Condition Immunities: charmedSenses: passive Perception 16; see invisibilityLanguages: telepathy 1000 miles with other spellweaversChallenge: 5?
