Circle of the Stone

Circle of the Stone Druids study and admire the creatures that wonder the lands that call home and use their connection with the stone beneath their feet to mimic the power and abilities these creatures use. They do not transform into these creatures they create armor, weapons, and tools using their ability to bend and mold the stone around them to recreate the things these beasts do. You may see a Circle of the Stone Druid with some Dire Wolf based armor that cover his hands with gauntlets that when slammed together on a target inflict the same damage a Dire wolf bite or one that has formed some very sturdy armor that rivals that of a great turtle's shell.  

Earthen Shape

When you choose this circle at 2nd level, you gain the ability to use Earthen Shape on your turn as a bonus action, rather than as an action.

Additionally, while you have Earthen Shape active, you can use a bonus action to expend one spell slot to regain 1d8 hit points per level of the spell slot expended.

 

Shapes Of Equal

All bonus you gain to Wild Shape as your Druid level rises apply to Earthen Shape

 

Example - At 20th level, you can use your Wild Shape and Earthen Shape an unlimited number of times.

Stone Forms

Your knowledge of stone allows you to mimic more dangerous animal forms. Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Earthen Shape to create forms of beasts with a challenge rating as high as 1 (you ignore the Max. CR column of the Beast Shapes table, but must abide by the other limitations there)

Starting at 6th level, you can create forms of beasts with a challenge rating as high as your druid level divided by 3, rounded down.

Stone Strike

Starting at 6th level, your attacks in Earthen form count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

 

Stone Forms

The rites of your circle grant you the ability to transform into more dangerous animal forms. Starting at 6th level, you can transform into a beast with a challenge rating as high as your druid level divided by 3, rounded down.

Elemental Earthen Shape

At 10th level, you can expend two uses of Earthen Shape at the same time to transform into an earth elemental.

Thousand Stones

by 14th level, you have learned to use stone to alter your physical form in more subtle ways. You can cast the alter self spell at will
