Circle Of Strings

A druid of the Circle of Strings can see and manipulate the small strings of life that connect all things living and dead.

Circle Spells

Your mystical connection to the weave infuses you with the ability to cast certain spells. At 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level you gain access to circle spells connected to the weave.

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.

3rd - hold person, command

5th - augury, slow

7th - freedom of movement, divination

9th - dominate person, Bigby's hand

As a bonus action, you can roll the amount of dice equal to your level and add them together. You are able to reanimate that amount of humanoid corpses within 120 feet.

Once per short rest, you can use an action to puppeteer any living creature with a soul. The creature must succeed a dc 20 wisdom saving throw or be puppeteered for the next 10 minutes

For 10 minutes, you control any actions, movement, or speech that this creature does.

The creature is fully conscious while it is puppeteered but is effectively incapacitated.

After 10 minutes have passed the creature is freed from puppetry and knocked unconscious.
