I think this is great at first read. It is perfect for character I am currently playing. Much better that what I have come up with for a custom tradition for him.
I may just leave the name be for now. One change to the class I’ve been considering is to add more cantrips, maybe equal to half the INT mod or proficiency mod. Any thoughts? Would that be too much and messing work perfection? lol
I got some feedback from a friend that usually DMs for our group. I think they are rather good points.
"the level 2 ability is pretty strong for a wizard and should definitely state a skill you are already proficient in"
"not sure how possibly broken a demiplane spell every short rest is, considering you could do the short rest inside the demiplane and in essence permanently time out your group in danger for as long as needed."
the love 2 ability is setup like that mechanically. Ill go back later and specify it in the ability later this evening. As for the Demiplane issue, that could be said for demiplane in general though if it were cast.
Yes, but normally casting demiplane uses a spell slot. The level 14 ability refresh on short or long rest. I think the concern is cast it to get party to safety (assuming DM rules can end spell closing door before hour time) then rest up getting demiplane back to go back.
I don't think that is much of issue but getting casting of 8th leven spell back with short rest might be bit much. Maybe limit it to long rest?
Oh and the reason I left the endless library as a short rest is because the group I’ve been testing this subclass with has been using “gritty realism” so a short rest is 8 hours of down time and a long rest is 7 days of downtime.

I wish Wizards had a way to submit things or that they check these forums.
I really like this. It is very thematic and balanced, and might be the first homebrew subclass I allow in my games.

Symantec’s question, should I keep the name as is, “order of lore scholars” or change it to “tradition of lore scholarship”?
Maybe tradition of lore? That or the original.

I like original. Or maybe "Order of Scholars".

I personally think 1 cantrip is enough given other benefits.

I settled on the name "Lore Scholarship" and I renamed some of the abilities to be more inline with the overall them.
Is https://www.dndbeyond.com/subclasses/518229-lore-scholarship the current version?
Looks great! Now to talk a DM into letting me play it ;)
