Druid
Base Class: Druid

There are hundreds of forms a druid may take, but some focus on the many legged spiders as their inspiration and focus. Common among Drow, the Circle of Weavers specialize in spider-like abilities and poisonous strikes.

Arachnid Form

2nd-level Circle of Weavers feature

 

At 2nd level you can assume a more frightening form as 8 large spider legs grow from your back, and webs weave the air around you to protect you. As an action, you can expend a use of your Wild Shape feature to form these threads, rather than transforming into a beast form, and you gain 2 temporary hit points for each level in this class. While this feature is active, you gain the following benefits.
• You gain the effects of the [spell/ spider climb[/spell] spell that lasts until your form ends.
• You can make a strike with your spider arms as a bonus action. Make a melee attack against a creature within 10 feet of you using your wisdom modifier. On a hit, you deal 1d6+Wisdom modifier piercing damage
• When you cast [spell/ poison spray[/spell] while in this form, you can target one additional creature if that creature is also within range of the spell and within 5 feet of the initial target.

These benefits last for 10 minutes, or until you lose all temporary hit points.

Silk Weaver

Your time spent weaving with magic has taught you how to weave with tools. At 2nd level, you gain proficiency with weaver's tools. If you already have proficiency in weavers tools, you add twice your proficiency bonus to the check.

Weaver Magic

Your harmony with spiders grants you certain magic, allowing you to better embody your venomous origin. At 2nd level, you learn the poison spray cantrip. When you cast this cantrip, a creature that succeeds its saving throw still takes half as much damage instead of none.

At 3rd level, you have the web spell prepared. It counts as a druid spell for you, and don't count against the number of spells you can have prepared.

You can cast web without expending a spell slot. You can do so a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Venom Strikes

At 6th level, your affinity to your arachnid kin becomes more powerful. While you are in your Arachnid Form, weapon attacks and strikes made with your spider arms deal 1d6 additional poison damage.

Additionally, while in your Arachnid Form, you treat immunity to poison damage as resistance, and your strikes with your spider legs count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage. This damage cannot be further reduced to neutral or vulnerability. 

Full Form

At 10th level, when you assume your Arachnid Form, you can instead expend two uses of Wild Shape at the same time to transform into a Weave Spider as well. You take on the physical traits and stats, but retain the mental traits and stats. You also use your mental saves and your proficiency bonus for rolls.



Master Weaver

At 14th level, you can pull on the strings of the weave of magic as though they were part of your web. If a creature you can sense moves within 30 feet of yourself, you can use your reaction to pull a thread of the weave taut, forcing it to make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, maximum of 22. On failure, the creature takes 2d6 slashing damage and becomes restrained by arcane threads until the end of your next turn. On success, a creature takes half as much damage and isn't restrained. While in your arachnid form, the range of this feature becomes 60 feet.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.
