Stargazer

Mortals have always looked to the stars for stories of the past, guidance in the present, and glimpses of the future. Most believe that by reading the motions of the heavenly bodies, one can even change fate. The great constellations, the adder, elephant, hare, stag, and wolf all tell legendary stories and can even grant mortals a portion of their radiant power.

The wandering and solitary rangers known as Stargazers spend their lives studying the night sky for this purpose. Each night, they align their soul with the constellations of the night sky, and draw upon the energies of the heavenly lights to produce radiant magic and tip the scales of fate.

This trance lasts for 1 minute, unless you choose to end it as a bonus action, or you are incapacitated. Once you use this ability you must finish a long rest before you can use it again, unless you expend a 5th level spell slot to use it again.
