Base Class: Sorcerer
Sometimes nature is threatened, and there is no-one to answer the call. In these times, the natural world itself can create its own defenders, Incarnations of the earth itself with a single driving goal.
You carry an innate magic connected to the spirits of nature and flora, such as plants and fungi. There might be dryads among your ancestors, or your mother could have been infested with a magical fungus when you were in the womb. Maybe you were born in a druid's grove during a solstice, or perhaps you were touched by the magic of an archfey as a young child.
The primal power that flows within you will inevitably affect you and your surroundings. Many Nature Soul sorcerers find that they are different from childhood, and as they age, the oddities only grow.

Nature Magic
1st-level Nature Soul feature
Your link to the circle of life allows you to learn spells from the druid class. When your Spellcasting feature lets you learn or replace a sorcerer cantrip or a sorcerer spell of 1st level or higher, you can choose the new spell from the druid spell list or the sorcerer spell list. You must otherwise obey all the restrictions for selecting the spell, and it becomes a sorcerer spell for you.
In addition, you learn two cantrips from the Druid spell list. The druidcraft cantrip and one other one of your choice. In addition, you choose a aspect of nature that follows the origin of your character's story. You learn an additional spells and features based on that aspect, as shown below. It is a sorcerer spell for you, but it doesn’t count against your number of sorcerer spells known.

Sanctuary of Nature
1st-level Nature Soul feature
You learn to speak, read, and write Sylvan. In addition, beasts and plants can understand your speech, and you gain the ability to decipher their noises and motions. This ability doesn’t grant you friendship with beasts or plants, though you can combine this ability with gifts to curry favor with them as you would with any nonplayer character. You have advantage on all Charisma checks you make to influence them.
Additionally, beasts and plants have difficulty harming you. If an beasts and plants targets you directly with an attack or a harmful spell, that creature must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC (an beasts and plants needn’t make the save when it includes you in an area effect, such as the explosion of fireball). On a failed save, the creature must choose a new target or forfeit targeting someone instead of you, potentially wasting the attack or spell. On a successful save, the creature is immune to this effect for 24 hours. An beasts and plants is also immune to this effect for 24 hours if you target it with an attack or a harmful spell.
Nature's Guardian
6th-level Nature Soul feature
As an action, you magically summon a Nature's Guardian plant creature, within 30 feet of you. The plant is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands. The plant uses the Nature's Guardian stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB). The plant is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands. It lives for 1 hour, until it is reduced to 0 hit points, or until you die.
In combat, the item shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the item can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.
When you cast a spell with a range other than self, the spell can originate from you or your Nature's Guardian. Once you summon the plant with this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend 3 sorcery points to use this feature again. You can have only one plant creature summoned by this feature at a time; if you use this action and already have a Nature's Guardian from this feature, the first one immediately disappears.

Verdigris Bloom
14th-level Nature Soul feature
You are immune to poison damage and the poisoned and disease condition's. In addition, once per turn, whenever you target a creature with a spell of 1st level or higher, you may create a tsunami of grass, shrubs, and trees that overgrows the area like a tidal wave at the target's location until the end of your next turn. This plant growth shed dim light in a 5-foot radius heals the target and each creature of your choice within that radius equal to half your sorcerer level (rounded down). If you cast the spell used for this feature using sorcerer points, the amount of hit points regained equals your sorcerer level instead of half.
If the spell targets more than one creature, you choose the creature the feature benefits from.
Symbiotic Link

You and your Guardian's bond has matured, turning you into a powerful team. Whenever you cast a spell targeting yourself, you can also affect your Guardian's with the spell if the creature is within 60 feet of you.
In addition, you can communicate telepathically with your Guardian's and perceive through your Guardian's senses as long as you are on the same plane of existence.
