The veil between the present and the ancient past has thinned. You are no longer merely and adventurer; you are a conduit for a primal form of magic that existed before the recorded history of this world. This blessing manifests as a deep, spiritual attunement to the Elemental Crystals, granting you access to "Lost Magic" and tactical instincts that transcend modern martial or arcane training.
Black Mage
As a Black Mage, you channel the power of the 4 Elemental Crystals to cast Black Magic Spell, manifesting destructive attack spells and debilitating debuffs. Your connection to the Crystals allows you to reach farther and strike with more certainty than any standard practitioner of the arcane.
Crystal Magic
The crystals have granted you access to the ancient Black Magic, gaining the following benefits:
Crystal's Chosen. Your spirit harmonizes further with the Four Crystals as your journey unfolds. When you gain this Job Class you choose 3 spells from the Black Magic spell list. These spells must all be level 1.
Crystal Focus. While your crystal charm is on your person you can use it as a spellcasting focus for any spells you can cast. Does not require to be held. When casting spells granted by this feat your spell casting modifier is equal to your proficiency bonus, thus your spell attack bonus is 2x PB and your Spell Save DC = 2xPB+8.
Crystal Charges. You have a number of Crystal Charges equal to the maximum number of hit dice you have. As a magic action you can spend a number of these charges equal to the spell's level or a spell slot of the same level to cast one of your prepared Black Magic spells. These charges are restored on a Long Rest.
Seared Spell. When you choose your Crystal Magic spells they are permanently etched in your mind. The only way to change which Crystal Magic spells you know is to find a Black Magic Shop that sells tomes of ancient magic. Studying one of these tomes during a long rest replaces one spell with the spell in the tome, the tome is destroyed once you complete this process as the crystals magic sears a new spell into your mind.
Tactical Spell Casting
The crystals have granted you unparalleled focus while casting. Gain the following benefits:
Bypass Cover. Your attack rolls for spells ignore Half Cover and Three-Quarters Cover.
Casting in Melee. Being within 5 feet of an enemy doesn’t impose Disadvantage on your attack rolls with spells.
Increased Range. When you cast a spell that has a range of at least 10 feet and requires you to make an attack roll, you can increase the spell’s range by 60 feet.
Crystal Barrage. You always have the spells Magic Missile (Cast by spending spell slots) and Crystal Barrage prepared (cast by spending Crystal Charges).
