Summoner Conclave

A ranger that follows the conclave of Summoners focuses on the magic of nature, in addition to nature itself. This allows you to call upon its protectors, envoys of nature that serve at your side in times of need. 

Summon Companion

At 3rd level, your understanding of the magic that courses through nature allows you to tap into it, summoning a creature bonded with you through your connection to the world around you. Choose a beast that has a CR of 1/4 or lower, and is no larger than medium. The beast is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands.  While your companion is within 100 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically. 

In combat, the beast takes its own turn on initiative, using actions you suggest through your telepathic commands. These actions can be taken from its statblock. 

If the beast has died within the last hour, you can use your action to touch it and expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The beast returns to life after 1 minute with all its hit points restored. When you finish a long rest, you can summon a different mystical beast. The new beast appears in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you, and you choose its appearance. If you already have a beast from this feature, it vanishes when the new beast appears. The beast also vanishes if you die.

Improved Summon

At 7th level, you have deepened your understanding of summoning beast companions. When choosing a companion to summon, you can now summon a beast that is no larger than Large and that has a challenge rating of 1/2 or lower. 

Magical Attacks

Also at 7th level, the magic of the summoned companions shows in their attacks. The beast’s attacks now count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Enhanced Companions

At 11th level, you are able to empower your summoned companions using magic. When summoning a companion, choose one of the following bonus to apply to it:

• Aggressive Companion: The beast can make two attacks, or it can take the Multiattack action if it has that action.
• Shared Spells: When you cast a spell targeting yourself, you can also affect your beast companion with the spell if the beast is within 30 feet of you.

 

Ultimate Summons

At 15th level, you have mastered the magic of summoning companions. When summoning a companion, choose a beast that has a challenge rating of 1 or lower. You are no longer bound by size restraints.
