Path of the Season Warrior

An old dwarf called Thurdun Helmforger looks around in the desert wasteland, a look of worry on his face. "There is something wrong here, I can smell it. The desert's too hot". "Ofcourse it's too hot Thur" a man replies, "The desert is always too hot, it's a ******* desert". Thur grabs a few grains of sand between his fingers and sprinkles them upon his tongue. After a few moments Thur grumbles: "I think we found what caused the crops to die, and its not pretty". They all grab their weapons, not knowing what Thur meant but knowing enough that it is trouble, it's always trouble. 

 

Forest Magic

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you become knowledgeable in the ways of the forest en the magic that seeps through their roots. You gain proficiency in the Nature and Arcana skills if you don’t already have it.

Season Aspect

At 3rd level, when you adopt this path, you choose a season aspect and gain its feature. Your body changes according to the aspect you have chosen, you gain minor physical attributes that are reminiscent of your season aspect. For example, if you have the aspect of summer, your body temperature increases permanently and your eyes might turn red and start flickering slightly.

Autumn

While you are raging, a wall of wind forms in a 5ft circle around you. The strong wind keeps fog, smoke, and other gases at bay. For small or smaller flying creatures this counts as difficult terrain. Creatures making ranged weapon attacks with Arrows, bolts, and other ordinary projectiles targeting you or Targets behind the wall attack with disadvantage. (Boulders hurled by Giants or siege engines, and similar projectiles, are unaffected.) Creatures in Gaseous Form can't pass through it. The aspect of fall makes you the eye of the storm.

Spring

While raging, vines quickly grow from your body. You make the terrain in 15 ft around you difficult terrain for enemies. This terrain moves with you while you move.

Summer

While raging, you have immunity to all fire damage and you may choose to make your melee weapon attacks fire damage. The spirit of summer transforms your fury into fire with enough heat to burn your opponents.

Winter

While raging, you have immunity to all cold damage and you may choose to make your melee weapon attacks cold damage. The spirit of winter temporarily cools your weapon and body down to such low levels that your opponents burn from frostbite.

Summer

In embracing the soul of summer your body becomes more volatile in nature. Each time you take damage you can choose to take 1d6 more damage and deal double this extra damage in fire damage to every creature within 5 ft of you.

Winter

While in upmost concentration you gain the ability to reduce the speed of your blood flow to near still and freeze none-vital parts of your body if you have not moved.
