Circle of the Seven Awakened Beast

Druids of the Awakened Races are devoted guardians of the Amethyst Isle, wielding the primal forces of nature and drawing power from the blessings of Xal'rith Azul-Thar, the Primordial Elemental of Earth. As protectors of their realm, these druids have transcended traditional forms of transformation, gaining the ability to shapeshift into powerful members of the Seven Awakened Races—an elite group of sentient creatures that emerged to defend the island from the Blighted Scourge.

Beastform Affinity

At 3rd level, you form a spiritual bond with one of the Seven Awakened Beasts. After completing a long rest, you choose one of the following beasts, gaining its associated benefits until you select a different beast after another long rest:

Berserker Badger: Gain proficiency in Athletics and Intimidation, and you can rage like a barbarian once per short rest, gaining advantage on Strength checks and melee attacks.

Whisperer Raccoon: Gain advantage on Stealth checks, the ability to communicate telepathically with any creature within 30 feet, and the ability to become invisible for 1 minute (once per long rest).

Unseen Weasel: You can cast Invisibility at will (self-only), and you gain advantage on Charisma (Deception) checks. Additionally, you may cast Mirror Image or Blur once per short rest as a reaction.

Shadow Earth Spider: Gain a climb speed equal to your walking speed and tremorsense up to 30 feet. You can also cast Web once per long rest without using a spell slot.

Heartwood Wolf: Gain proficiency in Perception and Stealth. You gain the Pack Tactics ability, giving you advantage on attacks when an ally is within 5 feet of your target.

Frost Owl: You gain the Flyby ability, allowing you to not provoke opportunity attacks when flying out of an enemy's reach. You are also immune to cold damage and can cast Fog Cloud once per long rest.

Desert Scorpion: Gain tremorsense out to 30 feet, the ability to burrow at half your speed, and the ability to summon a small sandstorm around you (15-foot radius) for 1 minute once per long rest. Enemies within the storm are blinded unless they succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC = 8 + your Wisdom modifier + proficiency bonus).

Additionally, once per long rest, if you drop to 0 hit points while in an Awakened Beast form, you may immediately shift into another Awakened Beast form (using a second use of Wild Shape) with full hit points.
