Ley Initiate (INT)

You see ley lines and can draw on their power. You gain the following benefits: 

• Increase your Intelligence or Wisdom score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
• You can sense the presence of every ley line within 1 mile of your location. If you have line of sight to the line itself, it’s visible to you in some obviously magical fashion.
• When you finish a short rest within 1 mile of a ley line, you can regain one expended spell slot whose level is no higher than your spellcasting ability modifier (minimum of 1st level). You can’t use this ability again until you finish a long rest.
• You can tap ley lines for their inherent power.  When a spell is cast within 30 feet of a ley line, you can tap the line’s power to augment your magic. This requires a successful ability check using your spellcasting modifier but without including any proficiency bonus. The DC of the check equals 10 + the level of the spell being cast. A successful check harnesses the power of the ley line, and the spell is modified according to the line’s intensity (weak, strong, or titanic). If the check fails but the result is within 4 of the DC, the spell is cast normally with no bonus effect and no penalty. If the check fails by 5 or more, the spell is cast normally but you suffer backlash. When a ley line is tapped successfully, you roll 1d10 and consults the table corresponding to the ley line’s intensity (weak, strong, or titanic).
