Warrior-Sage

Though only the Noble Genies can grant actual wishes, many of their kin (and those who follow their teachings) learn to alter reality in subtle ways.

As a bonus action, you can choose one of the following effects:

You may use this ability once per point of proficiency bonus, and recover any expended use upon completion of a long rest.

Just like the mythical genies themselves, your combination of bulk and muscle have become reinforced by raw elemental energies. As you gain body mass, your magical protection also hardens your flesh against outside threats.

While you are not wearing any armor, your Armor Class equals 10 + your Strength modifier + your Constitution modifier. You can use a shield and still gain this benefit.

When you take damage, you may use a reaction to reduce the damage by an amount equal to your proficiency bonus + your warrior-sage level. If the triggering damage was acid, cold, fire, lightning or thunder damage, you also deal an extra d6 damage of the same damage type on the next melee or thrown weapon attack made before the end of your next turn.

You may use this feature once, and recover any expended use upon completion of a long rest.

At 7th level, you may use this feature twice between long rests. At 18th level, you may use this feature three times between long rests.

Genies, regardless of their origin, are known as storytellers almost without equal. During your travels, you may have also picked up a few pieces of unique knowledge to call your own. Starting at 2nd level, you may use your Charisma modifier on any ability check that would normally use your Intelligence modifier.

Genies-- and the allies worthy of their secrets-- learn to draw upon untold power to bathe their weapons in raw elemental energies. Some warrior-sages call upon chaotic, roiling forces that may even appear alive. Others imbue their blades with a more controlled, subtle glow, leaving spectral after-images with every movement.

At 2nd level, you may consume a spell slot as a bonus action to wreathe your weapon in magical power. For 1 minute, you deal extra damage the first time you hit a creature with a weapon attack in a turn. The damage dealt is acid, cold, fire or lightning damage- you choose when you use this ability. The damage type remains the same until the next time you use this ability.

In addition, any melee weapon that you wield, if it does not have the reach trait or the thrown weapon property, it gains the thrown weapon property during this duration with a range of 20/60. While this ability is active, any weapon thrown by you immediately flies back to your hand after each attack.

The extra damage is 1d6 for a first level spell slot, 1d8 damage for a second level spell slot, 1d10 damage from a third level spell slot, 2d6 damage from a fourth level spell slot, and 2d8 damage from a fifth level spell slot.

By 2nd level, you have become a living conduit to the elemental planes. The Warrior-Sage spell list is at the end of this class description.

Warrior-Sages carry a great deal of power over the elements. That said, the strongest amongst them tend to focus their connection on one elemental aspect above all others.

If your cohort is being created as a player character (or if it is meant to have an equivalent power level) then at 3rd level, you choose your subclass-- the Dao, the Djinni, the Efreeti, or the Marid. Aspect options are detailed at the end of this class description.

Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 10th and 15th level. Those features include Aspect spells.

Genies and their ilk carry with them the wisdom of the ages- behind their toughened flesh and hearty laughs lies the knowledge of countless battle techniques. Just as important, however, is a warrior-sage's ability to look beyond the present, establishing the extreme focus required to execute said maneuvers.

Starting at 3rd level, a warrior-sage can use their move action to remain in place and focus. In exchange, the next melee or thrown weapon attack made by the warrior-sage gains advantage as long as it is made before the end of their next turn.

There is no limit to the number of times a warrior-sage may use this ability. This ability cannot be used if any part of the warrior-sage's movement has been used this turn.

When you reach 4th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

If your DM allows the use of feats, you may instead take a feat.

At 5th level, you may attack twice, rather than once, when using the Attack action.

Warrior-Sages take on more than just the teachings of the genies- in time they gain the supreme strength and effortless flight of their forebears.

Starting at 6th level, you count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity and the weight you can push, drag, or lift. This does not stack with the Powerful Build trait.

In addition, you gain a flying speed of 60 feet. If you previously had a flying speed (such as from the genie race) you no longer fall at the end of your turn while aloft.

At 7th level, you gain a feature granted by your Aspect.

Starting at 7th level, you can use this feature twice between long rests.

When you reach 8th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

If your DM allows the use of feats, you may instead take a feat.

At 10th level, you gain a feature granted by your Aspect.

As your connection to the elemental planes grow, so do the possibilities at your fingertips. Your unfettered might courses through any weapon in your hands so long as you allow it.

Starting at 11th level, all of your melee and thrown weapon attacks deal an extra 1d8 damage on a hit. This damage is acid, cold, fire or lightning- you may change the damage type without an action, but only during your turn and only once per round.

In addition, your planar weapon damage increases (though still only affects the first time you hit with a weapon attack in a round.) The bonus damage is now 1d8 when consuming a first level spell slot, 1d10 for a second level spell slot, 2d6 for a third level spell slot, 2d8 for a fourth level spell slot, and 2d10 for a fifth level spell slot.

From now on, any bonus damage dealt with this ability, or from your planar weapon ability, ignores damage resistance but not immunity.

When you reach 12th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

If your DM allows the use of feats, you may instead take a feat.

At 14th level, you gain the ability to cast the plane shift spell without consuming a spell slot. If your destination is on the Material Plane or one of the Elemental Planes (such as the Elemental Planes of Air, Earth, Fire, or Water), then you do not require any material components to cast the spell in this way.

You may instead cast the teleport spell using this ability if your destination is on your current plane of existence.

You may use this ability once, and recover any expended use upon completion of a long rest.

At 15th level, you gain a feature granted by your Aspect.

When you reach 16th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

If your DM allows the use of feats, you may instead take a feat.

Starting at 18th level, you can use this feature three times between long rests.

When you reach 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

If your DM allows the use of feats, you may instead take a feat.

Starting at 20th level, you may use your wish-granting abilities as an action to summon the effect of one spell that is 3rd level or lower and has a casting time of 1 action. The spell can be from any class's spell list, and you don't need to meet the requirements in that spell, including costly components; the spell simply takes effect as part of this action.

You may use this ability twice, and recover any expended use upon completion of a long rest.

Alternatively, you may cast a single spell that is 6th level of lower instead of the above (the same conditions apply, however). You must have both uses of this ability available in order to cast a spell of 4th level or higher in this way, and you consume both uses in order to do so.

Once you use this ability to cast a spell of 4th level or higher, you cannot cast another 4th level or higher spell in this way until you finish 1d4 long rests.
