Stone Dwarf

As a stone dwarf, you have rocky skin and hair, and remarkable resilience.

Strength of Stone. You strength is increased by 2.

Dwarven Toughness. Your hit point maximum increases by 1, and it increases by 1 every time
you gain a level.
Stone Sorcery

Your magic springs from a mystical link between your soul and the magic of elemental earth. You
might trace a distant ancestor to the Plane of Earth, or your family might have earned a mighty
boon in return for a service to the Dao Lords. Whatever your past, the magic of elemental earth is
yours to command.
Your link to earth magic grants you extraordinary resilience, and stone sorcerers have a natural
affinity for combat. A steel blade feels like a natural extension of your body, and sorcerers with
this origin have a knack for wielding both shields and weapons. In combat your place is amid the
fray. You rely on your elemental nature to shield you from harm and your magic and metal
weapons to overwhelm your foes.

Bonus Proficiencies

At 1st level, you gain proficiency with shields, simple weapons, and martial weapons.

Metal Magic

Your affinity for metal gives you the option to learn some non-sorcerer spells that focus on
weapon attacks. When your Spellcasting feature lets you learn a sorcerer spell of 1st level or
higher, you can select the spell from the following list of spells, in addition to the sorcerer spell
list. You must otherwise obey all the restrictions for selecting the spell, and it becomes a sorcerer
spell for you.

Spell Spell
Level
1st compelled duel
1st searing smite
1st thunderous smite
1st wrathful smite
2nd branding smite
2nd magic weapon
3rd blinding smite
3rd elemental weapon
4th staggering smite

Stones Durability

At 1st level, your connection to stone gives you extra fortitude. Your hit point maximum increases
by 1, and it increases by 1 again whenever you gain a level in this class.
Your skin grows rocky in appearance and you gain a base AC of 13 + your Constitution modifier as
long as you arent wearing armor other than a shield.
Investiture of stone

Starting at 6th level, your command of earth magic grows stronger, allowing you to harness it for
your protection. As a reaction to taking damage, you can invoke the power of stone. You body
becomes encased in stone, this grants you resistance to bludgeoning, slashing and piercing. You
also receive temporary hit points equal to your constitution bonus times your sorcerer level.
While encased in stone, your speed is zero and you cannot cast spells, take reactions or actions.
This effect ends at the beginning of your next turn.
Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long or short rest.

Stones Edge

Starting at 14th level, your mastery of earth magic allows you to add the force of elemental earth
to your melee weapon attacks. When you make a melee weapon attack you may add your
constitution bonus to the damage of the weapon. In addition, your melee weapon attacks are
considered adamantine for the purposes of damage reduction and resistance.

Improved Investiture of Stone

Beginning at 18th level, when you use your Investiture of Stone, you can choose up to three
creatures to gain its benefits. This effect ends at the beginning of the creatures next turn.

Earthen Soul

Starting at 1st level, your link to the Elemental Plane of Earth allows you to serve as a conduit for
elemental energy. You have resistance to force damage, and when you cast a spell that deals force
or thunder damage, you add your charisma modifier to that damage. Additionally, you know the
mold earth and thunderclap cantrips and can cast them at will. They don't count against your
number of cantrips known.

Vengeance of the Dao

Starting at 6th level, the elemental energy that you channel allows you to overcome grievous
injuries. When you would make a death saving throw, you can instead spring back to your feet
with a burst of thunder. You immediately stand up (if you so choose), and regain hit points equal
to half your hit point maximum. All hostile creatures within 30 feet take 10 + your charisma
modifier thunder damage and are stunned until the end of your next turn.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

Elemental Resilience

Starting at 10th level, you gain temporary hit points whenever you finish a long or short rest.
These temporary hit points equal your warlock level + plus your charisma modifier. Additionally,
choose up to 5 creatures you can see at the end of your rest. Those creatures gain temporary hit
points equal to your warlock level + your charisma modifier.

Hurl through Earth

Starting at 14th level, when you hit a creature with an attack, you can use this feature to instantly
transport the target through the elemental planes. The creature disappears and hurtles through
this deadly landscape. At the end of your next turn, the target returns to the space it previously
occupied, or the nearest unoccupied space. If the target is not an elemental, it takes 10d10 force
damage from smashing through this landscape. Once you use this feature, you cant use it again
until you finish a long rest.

Eldritch Invocations

Warhammer of the Dao

Prerequisite: The Dao patron, Pact of the Blade feature

When you create your pact weapon as a warhammer, it manifests as a stone warhammer forged
by the Dao. When you hit a creature with it, you can expend a spell slot to deal an additional 2d8
force damage to the target per spell level, and you can knock the target prone if it is Huge or
smaller.

Grasp of the Dao

Prerequisite: The Dao patron, eldritch blast cantrip

Once during your turn when you hit a creature with your eldritch blast cantrip, you can move that
creature in a straight line 10 feet closer to yourself.

the ground when you cast the spell must make a Strength saving throw. A creature must also
