Message: <blockquote data-quote="cbwjm" data-source="post: 7144163" data-attributes="member: 6788732">The Speaker of Xaos, sages and specialists of elemental power from the 4th edition heroes of elemental chaos book. Their abilities look interesting and I've tried to represent them in 5e. The picture for them in the book I thought was brilliant as an image that just made me think "wizard". Unfortunately, I can't find a copy on the internet to show with the subclass.I was going to include the elemental lore ability which in 5e would grant advantage on the wizard's spell attacks against elementals and disadvantage on the elementals' saving throws but, much like the complaints about the rangers favoured enemy, this seemed too niche.Potent Cantrip is a placeholder ability at the moment. I might adapt the repel elements to 6th level to provide a defensive option (resistance to cold, fire, lightning, and thunder damage for everyone in a radius) but I'm still up in the air about it at the moment. Constructive feedback appreciated. (Level 2) Arcane LoreYou learn the Arcana skill if you do not already know it. You double your proficiency bonus when making Intelligence (Arcana) checks. (Level 2) Widen SpellWhen you cast as spell that deals cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage You can widen the effect of your spells.     <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Burst Spells (eg. fireball): Increase the spell’s radius by 5 feet. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Cone Spells (eg. cone of cold): Increase the size of the cone by 5 feet. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Single Target (eg. fire bolt): You can affect a single other target within 5 feet. If the spell has an attack roll, you must make an attack roll against both targets. If the spell has a saving throw, both targets may make a saving throw. </li> </ul>You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum 1). You regain all uses after a long rest. (Level 6?) Potent Cantrips (placeholder ability)Your cantrips which deal cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage add your Intelligence modifier to the damage. (Level 10?) Power of the ElementsWhen you deal damage with an spell that deals cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage, you can reroll any 1s until you get a 2 or higher. (Level 14) Elemental ChainsWhen you hit with an elemental attack you can reshape residual elemental energy into chains of energy binding your opponent. The chains last for 1 minute or until the target moves. If they move they take another 3d10 damage of the same energy type. Short rest ability.</blockquote>
