Corrupted Archfey Ancestry

---

 

Denying Ancestry

When you choose this Sorcerous Origin at 1st level, you have forsaken the origin of your powers. This means that it now is driven by chaos. Whenever you cast a spell of 1st level or higher, you have an increased chance of losing control. You have to roll a d20, on a 1-2, the magic surge will activate. 

With every time you succeed, the difficulty increases by 1.

Unwanted Magic

Even though you have forsaken the Fey you cannot unlearn the magic you learned as a child. You may choose one Cantrip from the Druid spell list.

Unspoken Language

Due to your connection with the Fey, you know how to write, read, and speak Sylvan. Depending on how strong your hatred for the Fey is, your character, however, might choose not to use it.

Danger Sense

Starting at level 6, you have become  more familiar with the feeling when a Fey is within 100 feet of you. You cannot be surprised by the Fey and have advantage on Saving Throws against being charmed by them.

Controlled Chaos

At 14th level, you gain a modicum of control over the surges of wild magic that sometimes overpowers you. Whenever you roll on the Wild magic Surge table, you can roll twice and choose either numbers.

Forgiveness or Hatred

At 18th level, you have two options. You can either give in to your hatred for the Fey, or you can forgive their actions that sparked this feud in the first place.

Embracing Ancestry

If you choose forgiveness over hate, at level 18, most of the chaos inside of you gets replaced by order. This means you still continue to roll for the magic surges, but the difficulty no longer increases when you succeed.

You gain a closer affinity with the Feywild and nature in general. You learn how to speak with plants and animals and can do so at will. In addition, you get advantage on Intelligence checks when you are trying to recollect information about the Feywild.

You will also be recognized as non-hostile and as one of their own by the Fey. This means they will not become hostile towards you unless provoked, and leaving the Feywild does not affect your memories.

Master of Chaos

Having chosen hatred over forgiveness, your entire body aches when your Danger Sense activates. You can, however, use the pain you feel to transfer it to the Fey, letting them feel the pain it's kin has caused you.

The phychic damage will vary from Fey to Fey. The Fey maked a Wisdom saving throw against your spellcasting DC. If it succeeds, it takes half damage and you suffer 1 point of exhaustion.

The amount of d6 rolled is equal to their challenge rating with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 10. One exception is the Archfey that betrayed you and your family. If you encounter this Archfey, the maximum die will increase to 12 and you may reroll 1s once.

You can use this feature as an action and will regain it after a long rest.

If you already used this feature and encounter another Fey, you have disadvantage on attack rolls, saving throws and skill checks.
