Order of the Blood Moon

Replacing the powerful influence of the Primals with the very blood and life of the Empyreans, the Order of the Blood Moon calls on the power of Selenal, the larger of the two moons of Alyria, the very embodiment of Tsuvinar's vision of change and transformation in the world. Each phase captures a change or transformation in the world and marks the passing of time, and this order summons the full might of the moon's timeless essence.

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you gain the improved senses of one in tune with the natural flow of time. You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) to discern movement or location of creatures, or alterations to a location through time.

Changebringer Essence

Also at 3rd level, you learn to control the ebb and flow of time around you. As a bonus action, you transform into a the Changebringer Essence for up to 1 hour. You can revert to your normal form as a bonus action. You automatically revert to your normal form if you fall unconscious or die.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Chronal Regeneration. At the start of each of your turns when you have at least 1 hit point but fewer hit points than half your hit point maximum, you gain hit points equal to 1 + your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1).

At 18th level, you have mastered your place in the weave of time. You can use your Hybrid Transformation feature an unlimited number of times, and your hybrid form grants immunity to poison or disease.

You also gain the Blood Curse of the Moon for your Blood Maledict feature. This doesn’t count against your number of blood curses known.

Blood Curse of the Moon

As an action, you unleash your control of the weave of time. Each creature within a 40 foot cube within 120 ft of you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become Slowed until the end of your next turn. If a creature fails its saving throw by 5 or more, it is incapacitated while slowed in this way as you freeze them in their own place in time. A creature that succeeds on its saving throw is immune to this blood curse for the next 24 hours.

You can choose any number of creatures you can see to be unaffected by the Blood Curse.

Amplify. The save DC for this Blood Curse is boosted by +2.

Activating a Blood Curse requires a use of your Blood Maledict feature.
