Ferretmancer

.

Court of Ferrets

Starting at the 2nd level, you now maintain a court of spectral ferrets.  The maximum number of ferrets is equal to half of your druid level rounded down.  When a spectral ferret is used, it returns to you as a small ferret spirit.  As a bonus action you can use a spell slot to restore that number of ferrets to full power.  You also restore all of your spectral ferrets upon a long rest.

You are able to convert your spectral ferrets into physical ferret knights as a bonus action.  The ferrets are able to stay in physical form for a maximum of one minute.  You can use a ferret knight for several actions:

-Add 1d10 per knight used to your next damaging attack or spell

-Reaction to the next damage attack against you reducing the damage by 1d10 per knight used

-Cast a Ferret Bolt of the level equal to the number of ferret knights used

Each of these actions causes the ferret knights used to disappear.

Country before self

Starting at 3rd level, you are able to command wild ferrets to gather food for you overnight.  They are able to gather 1d6 pounds of food in that time.  

Animal Kingdom

Starting at 6th level, your spectral ferrets now maintain a semi-corporeal form, able to act independently of you outside of combat.  They must remain within 30 feet of you.  They gain no bonus on any checks they make except adding your proficiency bonus to sleight of hand checks they make.

Sacrifice for my Regent

Starting at 10th level, you can send one of your spectral ferrets to attach to an enemy within 60 ft. of the ferretmancer as a bonus action.  The ferret can last attached to an enemy for a maximum of 30 seconds.  The ferret reduces their AC by -1 while attached.  That creature may make a constitution saving throw against the ferretmancer's spell save to remove the spectral ferret.  On your next turn you are able to cause the spectral ferret to explode if still attached, dealing 2d12 psychic damage.  Removal or sacrifice uses the spectral ferret.

Rule by example

Starting at 14th level, you are now able to wild shape into the legendary ferret.  You are still able to use your spectral ferrets while in this form.
