Leyline Adept

The chaotic birthright of a Surge Child is a trial few survive. You did more than survive; you thrived. The raw, untamed magic that once threatened to consume you has become a tool, honed through years of relentless struggle. As a Leyline Adept, you've learned to ride the surging tides of arcana, adapting to its unpredictable nature and forging a deeper connection with the magic that courses within and surrounds you. While the potential for wild surges remains, you've come to understand their rhythms. Learning to guide and shape the flow of arcana has transformed your unpredictable gift into a potent and versatile ability.

Any time you are required to roll on any surge table, you may choose which table to use.

You can choose to select a surge of your choosing in lieu of rolling for a random surge effect once per day without penalty. Any additional attempts to control your surges in this manner leave you with one point of exhaustion, which stack should the attempts continue.
