Homebrew Mark of Healing Species Details

Gathering together fantastical races from throughout the D&D multiverse, the description of a race might suggest various things about the behavior and personality of that people’s archetypal adventurers.

Your race is considered to be any game feature that requires a certain race, such as elf or dwarf.

 

Mark of Healing Traits

Instead of choosing one of the game’s races for your character at 1st level, you can use the following traits to represent your character’s lineage, giving you full control over how your character’s origin shaped them:

Creature Type

You are a Humanoid. You are also considered another type character's creature if you want rollplay a certain creature type. Here's a list of the game's creature types: Aberration, Beast, Celestial, Construct, Dragon, Elemental, Fey, Fiend, Giant, Monstrosity, Ooze, Plant, Undead. You are also considered [Creature type] for any prerequisite or effect that requires you to be a [creature type]. For example, the cure wounds spell doesn't work on a Construct or an Undead.

Size

You are Small or Medium (your choice).

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Ability Score Increase

When determining your character's ability scores, increase one score by 2 and increase a different score by 1, or increase three different scores by 1.

Life Span

The typical life span of a player character in the D&D multiverse is about a century, assuming the character doesn't meet a violent end on an adventure. Members of some races, such as dwarves and elves, can live for centuries.

Medical Intuition

When you make a Wisdom Medicine check or an ability check using an herbalism kit, you can roll a 1d4 and add the number rolled to the ability check.

Healing Touch

You can cast the cure wounds spell with this trait. Starting at 3rd level, you can also cast lesser restoration with it. Once you cast either spell with this trait, you can't cast that spell with it again until you finish a long rest. Class spellcast is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

Spells of the Mark

If you have the Spellcasting or the Pact Magic class feature, the spells on the Mark of Healing Spells table are added to the spell list of your spellcasting class.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common and one other language that you and your DM agree is appropriate for your character.
