The Channeler - A Class for Ravnica and Beyond
Tapping into the Weave is different across all of the multiverse¸ all of it is magic¸ but how it is approached changes with the world. In some worlds clerics beseech their gods for access to the knowledge to manipulate magical energies¸ while wizards spend years in study and research to learn how to tap into those same powers. On one ravaged world¸ it is the plant life that paid the price for magic¸ leaving the world wasted by defilers who cared little for what damage they wrought in payment for power. Then there are The Channelers who tap into one¸ or more¸ of the five aspects of their world to weave magic spells to heal¸ harm¸ or enhance themselves with power. In these worlds¸ Channelers fill the role of priests¸ wizards¸ and druids¸ all defined by which mana source they are tapping into.
This is currently a first draft of this class. I haven't had a chance to playtest it. My goal was to make something that felt Magicky¸ but wasn't simply mimicing it in the D&D setting. Appreciate any feedback on it¸ especially regarding a power level in D&D.
