Curse of the Four Seasons

You have asked the gods for power, but instead received a divine curse. Silvanus, god of wild nature pays no attention to the machinations of mortals or other deities. You have been the exception and have been granted control over the four seasons of nature. His reasoning for granting such power is currently unknown to you, but one day it may become clear. You quickly learned that this power comes with a price, the curse of the seasons engulfs your form and personality; you are no longer completely mortal. You no longer age and if you are killed your role will continue in the afterlife. Your service to the seasons shall be indefinite, that is the price of Silvanus’s power.

• You can choose to change the elemental damage of all spells to that of the corresponding element of whichever season you’re in.
• Know 1 fewer cantrips.
• Roll a 1d4, remain your current season for that many days and then move to the next season in the cycle. If there is strong seasonal energy, you can request a specific season or the DM may tell you have switched seasons, up the DMs discretion. Cycle: 1. Spring 2. Summer 3. Fall 4. Winter
• Alternate ruling: Every day at dawn roll a 1d4, change to that season until the next dawn. If there is strong seasonal energy, you can request a specific season if it matches up the DMs discretion. (1=Spring 2=Summer 3= Fall 4= Winter)
