#dnd 5e subclasses

-Beyond Mortis-

School of Magic: 4th-level Necromancy

Casting Time: 1 Action

Range: 60 Feet

Duration: 1 Minute

Components: Verbal, Somatic, Material (An insect shell encased within amber)

Classes: Druid, Ranger, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard

You choose a corpse within range (provided it has flesh) and increase its rate of decomposition to when infestation of the flesh occurs. Doing so causes a ‘Swarm of Insects’ (Stat block in the Monster Manual) to emerge in a space adjacent to the corpse. The Swarm is friendly to you and your allies, attacks creatures that are not allied with you and acts on your initiative. Alternatively, you may choose to cast the spell on a creature of your choosing in which they make a Constitution saving throw (All creatures outside of undead make this save with advantage). On a failed save, the swarm tears free from their skin; dealing 4d6 piercing damage. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage and a Swarm does not spawn. The spell ends early if the swarm dies or you fall unconscious. When the spell ends after a minute, the swarm crumbles and dissipates into grey dust.

AT HIGHER LEVELS: You may choose additional targets for the spell for every spell slot above 4th-level. These can be a mix of corpses and creatures or can target a singular creature; in which they make a separate Constitution Saving Throw for each time you target them with the spell. These can be a mix of Corpses and Creatures or can target a singular creature; in which they make a separate Constitution Saving Throw for each time you target them with the spell.

-Mycelium Detonation-

School of Magic: 5th-level Necromancy

Casting Time: 1 Action

Range: 60 Feet

Duration: Instantaneous

Components: Verbal, Somatic, Material (A pouch of seeds and 50 gold’s worth of sulphur)

Classes: Druid, Ranger, Wizard, Warlock

You target a creature within range, if the creature is missing any of its Hit Points, they become infected with strange fungal growths from their wounds. The fungi releases spores that combust into acidic gas in a 15-foot radius from the targeted creature. All creatures within the affected area (Including the targeted creature) must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creatures suffer acidic burns across their body as they take 7d10 acid damage or half on a successful save. If the Target Creature is reduced to 0 Hit Points because of this Spell, these fungal spores embed themselves into any Creatures within 15 Feet of the Dead Creature. Each Creature within 15 Feet of the Dead Creature must succeed on a Constitution Saving Throw or have the same fungal growths that killed the Initial target Creature begin to sprout from their wounds. These new spores grow fungi that detonate again in a 15-Foot-Radius centred on the New Target Creature, dealing 7d10 Acid damage to those caught in the Radius that fail a Dexterity Saving Throw, or half as much Damage on a successful save. These fungal growths do not grow on to any additional Creatures if the New Target Creature is also reduced to 0 Hit Points.
