Monks of the Way of Spinjitzu are people born with elemental powers that can be unlocked. They also learn to use this elemental energy to allow them to create a vortex of whirling energy around them. Once the monks gain enough power, they reach their true potential and have extraordinary elemental abilities.

Spellcasting

When you reach 3rd level, you are able to use your ki energy to cast spells.

Cantrips. You learn two cantrips of your choice from the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spell list. You learn an additional cantrip of your choice at 10th level.

Spell Slots. The Way of Spinjitzu Spellcasting table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

For example, if you know the 1st-lvel spell shield and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast shield using either slot.

You also can spend a number of ki points equal to the spell's level to cast the spell without using a spell slot. Otherwise, you cast the spell as normal.

Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher. You know three 1st-level spells of your choice from the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spell lists.

The Spells Known of the Way of Spinjitzu Spellcasting table shows when you learn more spells of 1st level or higher. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 7the level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spells you know with another spell of your choice from the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spell lists. The new spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your spells, since you use the power of your ki to cast your spells. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +

your Wisdom modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +

your Wisdom modifier
