Your choice of Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma score increases by two, and your choice of Dexterity or Constitution score increases by one.

Arc Sapiens reach adulthood in their late teens, and usually live less than a century, though due to their bodies absorbing latent arcane energy around them, they tend to age like fine wine, and often end up finding ways to slow down their aging process.

Sapiens tend toward no particular alignment. The best and the worst are found among them.

Arc Sapiens tend to be some of the shorter sapiens, but are usually over four and a half feet tall, and some can be over six feet tall, though this is exceedingly rare. Your size is Medium.

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

With bodies that absorb the latent arcane energy around them, Arc are able to release some of that pent up magic to add extra power behind a spell or attack. Once per long rest when you damage a creature with a spell or hit with a weapon attack, you can choose to deal an extra 2d4 force damage to that creature. The extra damage increases to 4d4 at 6th level, 6d4 at 11th level, and 8d4 at 16th level.

Your mind is hardwired to the arcane. You have proficiency in the Arcana skill. In addition, whenever you make a spell scroll, or copy a spell into a spell book or similar creation, the time and gold cost to do so is halved. The reduction in cost and gold cost does not stack with any other reduction you may acquire.

You can speak, read, and write Common and one extra language of your choice.
