Circle of Kashanah

Druids of the Circle of Kashanah seek knowledge from the legendary serpentine spirit, Kashanah. They seek to please Kashanah with the sacrifice of creatures in exchange for answers of the present as well as the ability to see slightly into the future.

Visions of Kashanah

Starting at 2nd level, you can enter a prophetic state in which you see the visions of Kashanah. As a bonus action, you can expend a use of your Wild Shape feature to take on a prophetic state, rather than transforming into a beast.

While in this prophetic state, you gain the following benefits:

• When you or another creature you can see within 60 feet of you makes an attack roll, you can use your reaction to cause the roll to have advantage or disadvantage.
• You may use your bonus action to place a serpentine curse on a creature you can see within 60 feet of you. The cursed creature must succeed on a charisma saving throw or subtract 1d4 from its next attack roll, ability check, or saving throw.

The form lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you dismiss it (no action required), are incapacitated, die, or use this feature again.

Circle Spells

Your connection with Kashanah allows you to cast certain spells. At 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level you gain access to circle spells.

Once you gain access to a circle spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesn’t appear on the druid spell list, the spell is nonetheless a druid spell for you.

Circle Spells

DRUID LEVEL	SPELLS
3rd	borrowed knowledge, augury
5th	clairvoyance, fear
7th	divination, arcane eye
9th	commune with nature, scrying

Rites of Knowledge

Starting at 6th level, you can evoke a fragment of Kashanah's spirit to fight by your side. Once per long rest, you may summon a Fragment of Kashanah at a point you can see within 60ft of yourself. The game statistics for the summon are shown below. The Serpent will remain summoned for 1 minute or until you lose your concentration (as if you were concentrating on a spell).

If the Serpent brings a creature that is large or smaller to zero hitpoints, you may have it consume the creature. If the Serpent is sated in this way, you may ask one question of Kashanah until your next long rest.

Improved Visions

When you reach 10th level, the visions you see from Kashanah become clearer.

When using the Visions of Kashanah feature, you gain the following benefits:

• When using your reaction, you may cause advantage or disadvantage on saving throws and ability checks as well as attack rolls.
• When using your bonus action to curse an enemy, the subtracted die increases from 1d4 to 1d6.

Kashanah's Blessing

When you reach 14th level, your devotion to Kashanah is rewarded with unfathomable knowledge.

When you first enter the prophetic state using the Visions of Kashanah feature, you may choose a creature you can see within 200 feet of you. You learn about all of its game statistics. You may only use this feature once per long rest.
