Base Class: Ranger
Emulating the Terrain Sculptor archetype means using your surroundings as an extension of the self. As you walk the path of a Terrain Sculptor, you learn to augment your physicality and adapt your specialized techniques for any situation you find yourself in. Such rangers are often mistaken for beasts and aberrations, manipulating the weave to alter their very being in unique and interesting ways.
Altered by Terrain
3rd-level Terrain Sculptor feature
You can augment your abilities with the power of the weave, allowing the terrain around you to become a part of your being. Using your Bonus Action, you make use of the terrain around you for the next minute. Depending on the terrain you are currently standing in, you will receive a different benefit as shown in the list below. If in the duration the terrain changes, only one of these effects may be active at a time. This ability does not require concentration therefore the abilities granted still are applicable when you fall unconscious in combat.
This feature is usable a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus per long rest.
- Arctic - You grow a thick coat of hair as you become resistant to cold damage.
- Coastal - You constantly feel refreshed as you regain 5 hit points at the start of each round.
- Desert - Your skin feels scaley and cool to the touch as you gain resistance to fire damage.
- Forest - Your skin becomes more robust and bark-like. Your armor class increases by 2.
- Grassland - A tailwind seems to pick up behind you. Your movement speed increases by 10.
- Hill - You feel your muscles burst with adrenalin. You gain advantage on all strength and dexterity checks.
- Mountain - Your body feels heavier, and has a slight sheen to it as if made of copper. You gain resistance to lightning damage.
- Swamp - The will to overcome no matter the odds is amplified within you. You gain advantage on saving throws that would result in damage.
- Underdark - A shroud of darkness swirls around you and your eyes adjust accordingly. You gain resistance to necrotic damage, and 30ft of darkvision if you did not already have darkvision.
- Urban - A set of concrete arms form attached to your body. You gain an additional attack when you take the attack action.

Resilient Lifeforce
3rd-level Terrain Sculptor feature
Your ability to warp your being had afforded you with unmatched survivability. You gain advantage on death-saving throws. In addition, if you take damage that is great enough to kill you outright, you instead only suffer two failed death-saving throws.
Able Bodied

You are far more experienced than you once were, and can pick which terrain you alter your form with. In addition, you may have two different terrains active at a time. Both can be activated at the same time, consuming only a single bonus action.
In addition, as a reaction when you fail an ability check or saving throw, you may expend a use of '"Altered by Terrain" to roll again.
Landbreaker

You have become the physical embodiment of the tempest. You gain access to the spell "Storm of Vengeance" and can cast it once per long rest. This spell does not require concentration from you when cast from this ability.
