Fey Trickster

Fey Tricksters are roguish types who are touched by the fey, and find an affinity for the magic and creatures that dwell in the feywilds. These individuals learn their trickery from pixies and fairies who visit them, and sometimes learn the twisted ways of the darker creatures that offer their friendship. These creatures offer gifts in return for friendship, in the form of fey magic and ancient knowledge. These gifts are meant to amaze and delight their recipient, but also twist and warp their sensibilities to a mor fey way of thinking.

Mysterious creatures of the feywild appear to you offering gifts and knowledge. You know the Friend of Nature gift and two other gifts of your choice, which are detailed in the “Gifts of the Fey” section below. You learn one additional gift of your choice at 9th, 13th, and 17th level.

Casting Fey Spells. Some gifts allow you to cast spells. Your spellcasting ability for these spells is Wisdom. See the Spellcasting section for the general rules of spellcasting. To cast one of these spells, you use its casting time and other rules, but you don’t need to provide material components for it.

You can spend additional uses of this feature to increase the level of an gifts of the fey spell that you cast, provided that the spell has an enhanced effect at a higher level. The spell’s level increases by 1 for each additional use of this feature that you spend.

Saving Throws. Some of your gifts require your target to make a saving throw to resist it’s effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Gift save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier.

Gifts of the Fey

The gifts are presented in alphabetical order. If a gift requires a level, you must be that level in this class to learn the gift.

Beguiling Words

You gain the power to manipulate the minds of others, forcing them to become your friend. As an action, you can expend three uses of your Otherworldly Friends feature and attempt to influence up to 8 creatures with your words. Each target that can hear you, and understands the language you are speaking must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you for 1 hour. A charmed creature acts in a somewhat childlike manner while around you, and treats you like an older friend or sibling. If you speak in a language granted by your Sylvan Tongue feature, each target makes its saving throw with disadvantage.

If you or any of your companions damage a creature while it is charmed by this effect, the effect ends for that creature. When the effect ends for a creature, it knows it was charmed, but does not necessarily know the source. (17th level required)

As an action, you can expend two uses of your Otherworldly Friends feature to force each other creature in a 20-foot-radius around you to make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save a creature becomes blinded until the end of your next turn. You then begin to absorb light in the area around you, creating a 20-foot-radius sphere of darkness that moves with you until the end of your next turn.
