Emberheart Scholar(1.0)

The Emberheart Scholar is a fire wizard whose relentless pursuit of arcane knowledge is matched only by their insatiable desire for wealth. Born from a background of poverty and loss, the Emberheart Scholar transforms personal tragedy into a blazing path of magical and financial supremacy. Their story begins in a small village, where early signs of extraordinary magical potential set them apart. Raised by a kind-hearted yet impoverished guardian, they learned to harness their innate fire magic, nurturing a burning ambition fueled by the harsh realities of their upbringing.

As an Emberheart Scholar, your magic is deeply entwined with the element of fire, symbolizing both the destructive power and transformative potential of your arcane abilities. Fire becomes not just a tool of combat but a reflection of your inner drive and resilience. The flames you wield are an extension of your will, capable of reducing enemies to ashes or illuminating the path to untold riches.

Your journey is one of unyielding determination. The embers of your past hardships fuel your desire to master the arcane and accumulate wealth, a combination that sets you apart from other wizards. Every spell you cast, every flicker of flame, is a testament to your struggle and triumph over adversity. You are not content with mere survival; you seek to thrive and dominate, turning the heat of battle and the lure of gold to your advantage.The Emberheart Scholar’s unique abilities reflect this dual nature. From enhancing your fire spells with raw intellect to creating protective barriers of searing heat, your powers grow in tandem with your ambitions. The flames you command are not only a means of destruction but also a symbol of your undying quest for knowledge and prosperity. Whether through the scorching insight that shields you from harm or the blazing intellect that unravels the mysteries of fire-related magic, your journey is marked by a continuous ascent toward greatness.

Fiery Savant

2nd-level Emberheart Scholar feature

When you choose this tradition at 2nd level, you gain proficiency in the Arcana skill. If you already have proficiency in the Arcana skill, you gain proficiency in another skill of your choice from the wizard skill list. Additionally, you learn the Control Flames cantrip if you don't already know it. This cantrip doesn't count against your number of cantrips known.

Emberheart's Resilience

2nd-level Emberheart Scholar feature

Starting at 2nd level, your mastery of fire grants you resistance to fire damage. Additionally, when you cast a spell that deals fire damage, you can add your Intelligence modifier to one fire damage roll of that spell.

Blazing Shield

6th-level Emberheart Scholar feature

At 6th level, you gain two powerful abilities:

• Flame's Aegis. As a reaction when you take damage from a fire source, you can absorb the flames to gain temporary hit points equal to your wizard level + your Intelligence modifier. The source of the fire takes damage equal to half of the temporary hit points you gained.
• Fiery Shield. You can spend an action to create a shimmering shield of fire around yourself, granting you immunity to fire damage and giving any creature that hits you with a melee attack while within 5 feet of you fire damage equal to your Intelligence modifier. This shield lasts for 1 minute or until you dismiss it (no action required). You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Ember's Wisdom

10th-level Emberheart Scholar feature

By 10th level, your control over fire is unparalleled. When you cast a spell that deals fire damage, you can ignore resistance to fire damage. If a creature is immune to fire damage, it instead takes half damage from your fire spells. Additionally, as a bonus action, you can cast 1 fire spell of 3rd lvl or lower without expending a spell slot. You can use this feature 1/short rest.

 

Pyromancer's Fortune

14th-level Emberheart Scholar feature

At 14th level, you can channel the full fury of the inferno into your spells:

• Golden Conflagration. When you cast a fire spell that deals damage, you can choose to have it deal maximum damage. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once) per long rest.
• Teleportation of Flames. As an action, you can teleport to an unoccupied space you can see within 120 feet. When you teleport, you leave a burst of flame at your previous location. Each creature within 10 feet of that space must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking fire damage equal to your wizard level on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one. You can use this feature once per long rest.
