Sculptor
A
SCULPTOR
As the orc war chief raises
his huge, bloody greataxe for a
killing blow, the unarmed dwarf
throws up their hands in defense.
Blue energy crackles from the
dwarf’s empty hands, rapidly
shaping itself into the form of an enormous, glowing
hammer, longer than the dwarf is tall and radiating
with magical energy. The dwarf smiles. The orc
hesitates; the dwarf does not.
A halfling and his allies face down a mighty
dragon. As the dragon sucks in a deep breath, the
halfling steps forward, unafraid. A massive shield of
earth forms before him, seeming to materialize from
the very rock upon which he stands. With both small
hands, the halfling raises the shield just in time,
protecting his friends as the dragon’s fire roars.
Her expedition crew already lost, a single elf watches
goblins boil from the darkened tunnel. The horde will
be upon her in moments. Alone, the elf extends her
hands out to her sides, and brilliant golden blades
appear in the darkness. With steady hands, she raises
her weapons; this will be a long night’s work.
After several long days, a warforged finally steps
back from their sculpture, eyes critical for any fault.
They had been commissioned for a storage chest,
but an artist knows that just because something has
a simple function doesn’t mean its appearance also
4
Sculptor | 
requires mundanity; the chest is formed of mana
of many different colors and textures, whirled and
mixed to create boards of an iridescent grain bound
using shadow tendrils. The warforged smiles in
satisfaction at the perfect contrast.
Sculptors are artisans skilled in the arts of both
magic and warfare. They shape the ambient magical
energy called mana within themselves and their
surroundings into incredible, tangible creations. This
technique requires years of training and practice as
the sculptor learns to channel raw mana, harnessing
that power to create objects and cast spells with equal
artistry. Each sculptor will craft many masterpieces
over the course of a lifetime, but few of these great
works will rival the sculptor’s weapon of choice: a
highly-personalized and lovingly-designed Signature
Sculpt, the defining tool with which a sculptor can
reshape the course of battle.
Artist at Heart
Most sculptors develop their skills to create
stunning works of art long before using those skills
for martial pursuits. The first objects a sculptor
creates, upon learning to shape mana into solid
forms, are often humble and practical: simple tools
to speed up the day’s work, or temporary toys and
trinkets to entertain children. Even when a practiced
sculptor has learned to shape dazzling objects and
devastating weapons, they still tend to look at the
world from an artist’s perspective, basking in the
beauty of their surroundings and studying the finer
details of other artists’ works with intensity and
verve. That passion and attention to detail shows in
the sculptor’s own creations, though some may
err on the side of form over apparent function.
For sculptors, the artistry and the object
are inseparable; as such, most sculptors
put unique aesthetic flourishes on the
weapons and tools they sculpt.
Finding a Mana Source
Every sculptor’s first medium is their
inherent mana. This innate, nearly invisible
energy is the perfect material for a new sculptor
to learn and experiment with, but as they grow
more experienced, most sculptors quickly
begin to yearn for a more satisfying
medium. Many sculptors become
adventurers not for the love of
combat or coin, but rather to seek
out more original, beautiful, and
captivating mana from which to
sculpt their works of art. Each sculptor
will eventually come to find a source of
mana that fits their unique creative flare
and aesthetic, whether it be the infinitely
complex and ever-changing darkness of the
Abyss, the glowing pastel majesty of the Arcane
Weave, the raw primordial power of the Planes of
the Elemental Chaos, or the simple, vast beauty of
the Natural world, among other possibilities.
Creating a Sculptor
As you build your sculptor, consider how your
character learned to sculpt mana. Was it a prodigal
childhood talent you decided to hone with formal
training, or is sculpting a prestigious tradition
you learned to carry on the family legacy? Also
consider how you chose your Signature Sculpt:
what experiences, preferences, or personality
traits drew you to painstakingly create that specific
masterwork? What inspired its style and design?
MULTICLASSING AND THE SCULPTOR
If your group uses the optional rule on multiclassing in the
Player’s Handbook, here’s what you need to know if you
choose sculptor as one of your classes.
Ability Score Minimum. As a multiclass character, you
must have a Strength or Dexterity score of 13 or higher
and an Intelligence score of 13 or higher to take a level
in this class, or to take a level in another class if you are
already a sculptor.
Proficiencies Gained. If sculptor isn’t your initial class,
here are the proficiencies you gain when you take your
first level as a sculptor: light armor, medium armor.
Spell Slots. Add half your levels in the sculptor class to
the appropriate levels from other classes to determine
your available spell slots.
Quick Build
You can make a sculptor quickly by following these
suggestions. First, make Strength your highest ability
score, unless your chosen Signature Sculpt is a ranged
weapon or has the finesse property, in which case
make Dexterity your highest score. Your next highest
ability score should be Intelligence. Second, choose
the guild artisan or sage background.

Sculptor
Chapter 1: Class Features
Mana Shaper
As a sculptor, you gain the following class features.
1st-level Sculptor feature
Hit Points
Hit Dice: 1d10 per sculptor level
Hit Points at 1st Level: 10 + your Constitution
modifier
Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d10 (or 6) + your
Constitution modifier per sculptor level after 1st
As a sculptor, you have learned to access the dormant
magical energy within yourself, known as mana.
Although mana is normally ephemeral and barely
visible, with effort, you can will your mana to coalesce
into shimmering physical form. You can use an
action to shape your mana into any simple weapon,
or you can spend 1 minute to shape it into a more
complex object: any set of artisan’s tools (see chapter
5, “Equipment,” of the Player’s Handbook for a list
of artisan’s tools) or a single nonmagical object that
is Medium (contained within a single 5-foot cube)
or smaller. The item appears in your hands or in an
unoccupied space within 5 feet of you, using the hit
points, AC, and other statistics of a mundane object of
its type, though it appears translucent and evanescent
to any creature that can see it. Items created from
mana can’t be used as material components for spells.
To use this feature, at least one of your hands must
be free or holding a mana item you created.
You are proficient with any tool kit shaped from
your mana. Your mana can only be shaped into a
single weapon, tool kit, or other object at a time.
Proficiencies
Armor: All armor
Weapons: Simple weapons
Tools: None
Saving Throws: Dexterity, Intelligence
Skills: Choose two from Arcana, History, Medicine,
Nature, Perception, and Sleight of Hand
Equipment
You start with the following equipment, in addition
to the equipment granted by your background:
• (a) leather armor, (b) scale mail, or (c) chain mail
• (a) a shortbow and a quiver of 20 arrows, (b) 5
javelins, or (c) a shield (if proficient)
• (a) a scholar’s pack, (b) an explorer’s pack, or (c) a
dungeoneer’s pack
6
Sculptor | Chapter 1: Class Features
The item dissipates if you shape your mana into
a different form, or if you choose to dismiss it (no
action required).
Starting when you reach 10th level in this class,
when you spend 1 minute shaping your mana into
an object, its size can be Large (10-foot cube) or
smaller, and at 20th level, it can be Huge (20-foot
cube) or smaller.
other spell list associated with your Mana Source.
The cantrips count as sculptor spells for you, and
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for them.
Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can
replace one of these cantrips with another cantrip
from the same list.
Signature Sculpt
1st-level Sculptor feature
In addition to using mana to form useful tools and
mundane weapons, you can use an action to shape
your mana into your signature sculpt, which is a
powerful mana item with a custom appearance you
determine each time you shape your mana into it.
Many signature sculpts are martial weapons, but
some are shields, armor, tools, or some combination
thereof. You are proficient with your signature sculpt
in all statistics it bears. Choose your Signature Sculpt
from among those detailed in Chapter 2: Signature
Sculpts. Your choice grants you features at 1st level
and again at 6th, 11th, and 15th level.
SIGNATURE SCULPTS USED BY OTHER CREATURES
Like any other mana item you create, you can allow other
creatures to use your signature sculpt. Such a creature
uses of your signature sculpt’s base statistics, but not
any of its unique properties. For examples, if a Bow
Sculptor lends an ally their mana bow, that creature can
use it as a longbow, but doesn’t ignore the mana bow’s
heavy property and still requires ammunition to make
ranged attacks with it; and another creature wielding
an Axe Sculptor’s mana axe uses a mundane battleaxe’s
1d10 versatile damage die, not the 1d12 granted to the
sculptor. Sculptors are uniquely suited to the signature
sculpt they create for themselves, and other creatures
can’t wield them as effectively.
Fighting Style
2nd-level Sculptor feature
You adopt a particular style of fighting as your
specialty. Choose one of the following options. You
can’t take a Fighting Style option more than once,
even if you later get to choose again.
Archery
You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with
ranged weapons.
Aesthetic Warrior
You learn two cantrips of your choice from your
sculptor spell list. If the spell list you chose doesn’t
contain cantrips, you choose the cantrips from the
Brawl Shooting
When you make a ranged weapon attack against a
target within 20 feet of you, being within 5 feet of a
hostile creature doesn’t impose disadvantage on the
attack roll, and the attack ignores half cover.
Defense
While you are wearing armor, you get a +1 bonus to AC.
Distance Throwing
You gain a +1 bonus to the damage rolls of weapons
that have the thrown property, and you don’t suffer
disadvantage on ranged attack rolls with such
weapons due to attacking at long range.
Dueling
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one
hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to
damage rolls with that weapon.
Great Weapon Fighting
When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack
you make with a melee weapon that you are wielding
with two hands, you can reroll the die and must
use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or 2. The
weapon must have the two-handed or versatile
property for you to gain this benefit.
Interception
When a creature you can see hits a target, other than
you, within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction
to reduce the damage the target takes by 1d10 + your
proficiency bonus (to a minimum of 0 damage). You
must be wielding a shield or a simple or martial
weapon to use this reaction.
Mobile Fighting
While you are wearing light or no armor and not
wielding a shield, your walking speed increases by 5
feet, and you have a swimming speed and a climbing
speed both equal to your walking speed.
Protection
When a creature you can see attacks a target other
than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can use
your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack
roll. You must be wielding a shield.
Two-Weapon Fighting
When you engage in two-weapon fighting, you
can add your ability modifier to the damage of the
second attack.
Sculptor | Chapter 1: Class Features

Sculptor
Mana Source
2nd-level Sculptor feature
You learn to tap into and mold the ambient mana
that suffuses the multiverse. Choose one of the
following types of mana as your source. In addition
to influencing the appearance of the items you create
with your Mana Shaper feature and your signature
sculpt, your mana source determines which spells
you’re able to cast. Each mana source is linked to a
choice of spell list. When you select a mana source, you
choose one of these spell lists, which becomes your
sculptor spell list.
Many of these spell lists can be found within
Chapter 11 of the Player’s Handbook, with several
official expansions adding additional spells to the
lists, including Xanathar’s Guide to Everything and
Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything. At the DM’s option,
you can also incorporate third-party expansions, such
as the spells from The Ultimate Adventurer’s Handbook
and any other supplement the DM allows. If a class
name is followed by an asterisk, it is a third-party
class that can be found on the Dungeon Masters
Guild, and its spell list can be found in the Appendix.
Abyssal. Abyssal mana is drawn from the Abyss,
the Shadowfell, the Negative Plane, and other dark
recesses of the multiverse where shadows pervade
and nightmares skulk. Sculpts of this mana often
appear an inky black or sinister gray in color and
may produce an aura of shadow that seems to
writhe with excitement when you dwell on dark
deeds. Choose either the Accursed* or Warlock spell
8
list as your sculptor spell list.
Arcane. Arcane mana is drawn from ancient
runes, legendary artifacts, and places of power
scattered throughout the multiverse. Sculpts of
this mana typically appear in translucent blues
or purples that softly glow or pulse with magical
energy. Choose either the Artificer or Sorcerer spell
list as your sculptor spell list.
Divine. Divine mana can be drawn directly from
the Positive Plane and the heavens, or it can be
granted by celestials and deities whose favor you may
have earned. Sculpts of this mana often appear to be
made of precious metals with filigree and flourishes
that illuminate its exalted origins. Choose either the
Cleric or Paladin spell list as your sculptor spell list.
Elemental. Elemental mana is drawn from the
raw primordial power that pervades the planes of
the Elemental Chaos. Because the natures of the six
Prime Elements differ so greatly, you must choose only
one for your source: Acid, Aether, Air, Earth, Fire, or
Water. Sculpts of this mana appear to be constructed
entirely of the chosen element - noxious gasses and
corrosive liquids for Acid, refractive psionic constructs
and crystals for Aether, storm clouds and tempestuous
whirlwinds for Air, solid stone and bright gems for
Earth, raging flame and floating cinders for Fire, and
frigid ice and roiling sea for Water. Your sculptor spell
list is the Elementalist* spell list that corresponds to
the Prime Element you chose.
Natural. Natural mana is drawn from the sculptor’s
deep connection with the natural world, forged from
the same bonds that keep nature in balance and
interconnect ecosystems throughout the multiverse.
Sculpts of this mana reflect the terrain around you, so
your creations could manifest as leaves and vines in
a forest, stone and snow on a mountain, or sand and
waves on a beach. Choose either the Druid or Ranger
spell list as your sculptor spell list.
Schooled. Schooled mana draws on a particular
thread of the Weave and all the knowledge connected
to it. Choose one of the eight schools of magic:
Abjuration, Conjuration, Divination, Enchantment,
Evocation, Illusion, Necromancy, or Transmutation.
Sculpts of this mana often emit the same faint
magical aura seen by users of the detect magic spell
for the school of magic you chose and contain motifs
of that school of magic, like elemental energies for
Evocation or bones and ectoplasm for Necromancy.
Your sculptor spell list consists of every spell of the
school you chose. For ease of reference, sculptor
spell lists for each of these spell schools are included
in the Appendix.
Sculptor | Chapter 1: Class Features
Theatric. Theatric mana is drawn from the power
of performance in all its forms: the passion and
drama of the stage, the audience’s joy or sorrow as
the tale unfolds, and the explosive energy of the
applause as the final curtain falls. Sculpts of this
mana most often appear to be made from lights,
instruments, costumes, props, or even set pieces and
scenery, depending on your previous experiences
and artistic aesthetic. Choose either the Bard or
Merchant* spell list as your sculptor spell list.
Spellcasting
Spellcasting Focus
You can use your signature sculpt as a spellcasting
focus for your sculptor spells.
Artisanal Expertise
3rd-level Sculptor feature
Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability
check you make that uses a set of artisan’s tools
created with your Mana Shaper feature.
Quick Sculpt
3rd-level Sculptor feature
2nd-level Sculptor feature
In addition to sculpting your mana into physical
objects, you can also sculpt the ambient magical
energy of your Mana Source into spells. See chapter
10 in the Player’s Handbook for the general rules of
spellcasting.
Spell Slots
The Sculptor table shows how many spell slots you
have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To
cast one of these spells, you must expend a spell slot
of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended
spell slots when you finish a long rest.
Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from
your sculptor spell list.
The Spells Known column of the Sculptor table
shows when you learn more spells of your choice
from your sculptor spell list. Each of these spells
must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For
example, when you reach 5th level, you can learn
one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you
can choose one of the spells you know and replace it
with another spell from your sculptor spell list, which
also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
Spellcasting Ability
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your
sculptor spells, since you use the knowledge
gained from study and practice to sculpt complex
objects and effects out of raw mana. You use
your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your
spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw
DC for a sculptor spell you cast and when making an
attack roll with one.
Shaping your mana into your signature sculpt has
become instinctual. As a reaction when you roll
initiative or as a bonus action on your turn, you can
shape your mana into your signature sculpt.
Ability Score Improvement
4th-level Sculptor feature
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two
ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you
can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this
feature.
Martial Versatility
4th-level Sculptor feature
Whenever you reach a level in this class that grants
the Ability Score Improvement feature, you can
replace a Fighting Style you know with another
Fighting Style available to sculptors. This replacement
represents a shift of focus in your martial practice.
Extra Attack
5th-level Sculptor feature
You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you
take the Attack action on your turn.
Mana Purity
6th-level Sculptor feature
Your refined skill allows you to remove the
impurities from your mana sculpts. Weapons
shaped from your mana count as magical for the
purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to
nonmagical attacks and damage.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence
modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your
Intelligence modifier
Sculptor | Chapter 1: Class Features
9
Sculptor
Object Permanence
7th-level Sculptor feature
You learn to seal mana as you sculpt it, allowing you
to create permanent mana sculptures. When you
shape your mana into a single object or weapon other
than your signature sculpt, you can spend additional
time to seal the shapes as you form them: 8 hours
of work for a sculpture that is Small or smaller, or
24 hours of work for a Medium sculpture. You can
spread the work over any number of days, though the
sculpture shatters and dissipates if you shape your
mana into anything else before you finish sealing
it. Once you complete the required work to seal the
sculpture, it no longer dissipates when you shape
your mana into a different item. After the sealing
process is finished, you can use an action to touch a
permanent sculpture to cause it to dissipate.
When your Mana Shaper feature allows you to
shape larger objects from your mana upon reaching
10th and 20th level, you can also seal sculptures of
the same size, though it requires greater time: 72
hours of work for a Large sculpture, or 7 days (168
hours) of work for a Huge sculpture.
Palette Swap
10th-level Sculptor feature
You learn to alter the color and texture of the mana
you use for your sculptures, allowing you to create
works of greater complexity. When you shape your
mana into an item, the sculpture can have any
colors, patterns, textures, and opacity you want;
this has no effect on its properties or statistics, and
any creature that can see the object can still tell it is
created by mana.
Additionally, each time you shape your mana into
a simple weapon or your signature sculpt, you can
choose acid, cold, fire, lightning, necrotic, or radiant
damage. If you do, the mana item deals that type of
damage, instead of its normal damage type.
Eye for Detail
14th-level Sculptor feature
Your honed artist’s eye allows you to rapidly identify
significant details about creatures or objects you focus
your gaze upon. As a bonus action on your turn, you
can focus on a creature or object you can see within
30 feet of you, gaining the following benefits:
• The target can’t become hidden from you except
by magical means.
• Any attack you make against the target scores a
critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.
• You have advantage on Intelligence and Wisdom
checks you make involving the target.
You lose focus on the target if it is ever farther
than 60 feet from you, you lose line of sight to it, you
use this feature to focus on a different target, or you
lose concentration (as though concentrating on a
spell). You can maintain simultaneous concentration
on both this feature and a sculptor spell you cast.
Mana Crystallization
18th-level Sculptor feature
You can magically crystallize the mana you sculpt
to greatly enhance the item’s durability. When you
shape your mana into an item, you can choose to
make the sculpted item magical. If you do, the item’s
hit point maximum can’t be lower than your sculptor
level times five, its AC can’t be lower than 20, and it is
immune to damage from nonmagical sources.
Sculpting Maestro
20th-level Sculptor feature
You’ve attained such extraordinary skill at shaping
mana that you can do so even at a distance. When
you shape your mana into an item, you can cause it to
appear in an unoccupied space that you can see within
60 feet of you. Alternatively, you can manifest the
sculpted item in the hands of a willing creature you can
see within 60 feet of you.
Additionally, you can cast the spiritual weapon
spell at 4th level at will, without expending a spell
slot. When you cast it with this feature, it counts as a
sculptor spell for you, the spectral weapon takes the
form of your signature sculpt, and you can choose
for it to deal acid, cold, fire, lightning, necrotic, or
radiant damage, instead of force damage. The spell
ends early if you cast it again.
Chapter 2: Signature
Sculpts
A sculptor’s Signature Sculpt represents not only
the way they engage in combat, but very often their
personality, values, experiences, and artistic tastes.
Signature sculpts are time-consuming to design
and extremely difficult to form, so sculptors craft
their signature sculpts with care and consideration.
Learning to wield a signature sculpt with superlative
skill is the work of a lifetime, and sculptors dedicate
years of training, mind and body, to that sublime ideal.
CHARACTER CREATION TIP: REFLAVORING
SIGNATURE SCULPTS
Each Signature Sculpt presented in this class represents
an archetype and a playstyle. Although there are many
options presented, you may not find the exact weapon you
envision your sculptor character to wield on the list. The
Sculptor is a class all about artistry, so feel free to take
some creative license!
Reflavoring is the process of taking existing features and
rules and changing their lore and aesthetic to suit your
character’s needs, sometimes changing minor mechanics
to work with that new flavor. Since bludgeoning, piercing,
and slashing damage are nearly identical for the purpose of
combat balance, a great way to create the Signature Sculpt
you want is by changing the damage type of one of the
Signature Sculpts in this section.
Is your character a dwarf who grew up in a culture of
fierce heroes who wear spiked armor? Take Shape of the
Armor and change its damage type to piercing!
Do you want your character to use a boomerang? Take
Shape of the Chakram and change its damage type to
bludgeoning!
Do you want your character to swing an oversized
greatsword as an homage to your favorite video game
protagonist? Take Shape of the Hammer and change its
damage type to slashing!
Do you want to dual-wield nunchucks? Take Shape of the
Twin Blades and change its damage type to bludgeoning!
The possibilities are truly endless! Even if your character
concept doesn’t fit the sculptor (or any other character class)
perfectly, talking with your DM about reflavoring the available
options may enable you to create the perfect aesthetic and
mechanical Signature Sculpt for your character.
However, if you are still unable to find a perfect fit for your
character by simply reflavoring an existing Signature Sculpt,
never fear - there is a section at the end of this chapter that
details how to create a new one!
Shape of the Armor
Your Signature Sculpt is a full-body suit of armor
that manifests around you, protecting you from
harm and augmenting your physical abilities.
Sculptors with this signature tend to prefer engaging
foes directly, using their prodigious strength to lock
enemies in position while enduring deadly blows
that might otherwise overwhelm their allies.
Suit Up
1st-level Shape of the Armor feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a suit of mana armor
that appears on your body over any other clothing
or armor you’re wearing. Your mana armor uses
the statistics of chain mail, though you ignore the
disadvantage it would normally impose on your
Dexterity (Stealth) checks, and it grants you AC equal
to 15 + your Intelligence modifier (minimum 16 AC)
while you wear it, unless your AC was already higher.
Augmenting Armor
1st-level Shape of the Armor feature
Your mana armor allows you to perform incredible
feats of athleticism, granting you the following
benefits while you wear it:
• You can add your proficiency bonus to any
Strength check you make that doesn’t already
include your proficiency bonus.
• When you succeed on a grapple or shove attempt
against a creature, or by replacing an attack as
part of the Attack action while you have a creature
grappled, you can have your mana armor deal
bludgeoning damage to the grappled or shoved
creature equal to 1d6 + your Strength modifier. For
the purpose of your sculptor spells, dealing this
damage to a creature counts as hitting it with a
melee weapon attack.

RULES TIP: GRAPPLING AND SHOVING
The grappling and shoving rules, presented in chapter
9 of the Player’s Handbook, are some of the most
misunderstood rules in fifth edition D&D. To help you
make best use of your Shape of the Armor features, here
are paraphrased portions of those rules:
• You make a grapple or shove attempt by using the
Attack action. If you are able to make multiple attacks
with the Attack action, such as through the Extra Attack
feature, you can replace any number of your available
attacks with grapple or shove attempts.
• When you make a grapple or shove attempt against
a creature, you make a Strength (Athletics) check
contested by the target’s Strength (Athletics) or
Dexterity (Acrobatics) check, the target’s choice.
• A creature you attempt to grapple or shove can be no
more than one size larger than you.
• While you have one or more creatures grappled, you can
still move by dragging or carrying the grappled creature(s)
with you. However, your speed is halved unless each
creature is two or more sizes smaller than you.
• When you successfully shove a creature, you choose
either to push that creature 5 feet away from you or to
knock it prone. Standing up costs a creature an amount
of movement equal to half its speed.
Inherent Mana
Armor
Super Suit
6th-level Shape of the Armor feature
Your mana armor augments you with greater
resilience and even greater physical strength,
granting you further benefits while you wear it:
• When you make a Strength check, you gain a
bonus to the check equal to your Intelligence
modifier (minimum of +1).
• You count as one size larger for the purposes of
grappling and shoving, as well as for determining
your carrying capacity and the weight you can
push, drag, or lift.
• Whenever you would take damage of a type other
than psychic, you reduce the amount of damage
you take by 1. The reduction improves when you
reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 2 at
11th level, to 3 at 15th level, and to 4 at 20th level.
Stainless Steel
11th-level Shape of the Armor feature
While you wear your mana armor, you have
resistance to damage of the type it deals.
Additionally, when your mana armor deals damage
to a creature through the methods described in your
Augmenting Armor feature, it deals an additional 1d6
damage.
12
Titan Armor
15th-level Shape of the Armor feature
While you wear your mana armor, you now
count as being a total of two sizes larger for the
purposes of grappling and shoving, as well as for
determining your carrying capacity and the weight
you can push, drag, or lift.
Additionally, when you make a Strength
(Athletics) check for a grapple or shove attempt
against the focus of your Eye for Detail, you
automatically succeed on a roll of 19 or 20 on the
d20, regardless of the result of the target’s check. If
you automatically succeed in this way, your mana
armor deals an extra 2d6 damage to the target, and
you can gain an additional effect against the target
depending on whether the attempt was for a grapple
or a shove.
Grapple. The creature is incapacitated until the
start of your next turn.
Shove. You can push the creature up to 30 feet
away from you and knock it prone, instead of the
normal effects of a shove.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
Shape of the Axe
Your Signature Sculpt is a battleaxe whose handle
and blade can grow or shrink to switch between
battleaxe and greataxe forms. Sculptors with this
signature have the potential to become highly
versatile frontline warriors who excel in combat
against crowds, cleaving their foes to ribbons while
switching fluidly between using shields and swinging
their mana weapon with the full force of both hands.
Designed for War
1st-level Shape of the Axe feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana axe that uses the
statistics of a battleaxe, though its versatile damage
die becomes 1d12 for you.
Shield Proficiency
1st-level Shape of the Axe feature
You gain proficiency with shields.
Wild Cleave
6th-level Shape of the Axe feature
You can swing your axe in wide arcs, maximizing its
destructive force. As an action while wielding your
mana axe, you can make a melee mana axe attack
against any number of targets within 5 feet of you.
You make a single attack roll, which is then used
to determine whether your attack hits each target,
but you make a separate damage roll for each target
you hit with the attack. If an effect would give you
advantage on the attack against at least one of the
targets, you make the attack roll with advantage; the
same applies for disadvantage.
When you use this feature, your wild swing leaves
you open to counterattack. Attack rolls against you
have advantage until the start of your next turn.
Honed Edge
11th-level Shape of the Axe feature
Your axe’s blade becomes just as sharp as your mind.
You add your Intelligence modifier (a minimum of +1)
to the damage rolls of your melee mana axe attacks.
Critical Eye
15th-level Shape of the Axe feature
When you use your Wild Cleave feature, the attack
scores a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20 on the d20.
You roll one additional die when determining the
extra damage for the critical hit.
If one of the targets of your Wild Cleave is the
focus of your Eye for Detail, the attack instead scores
a critical hit against each target on a roll of 18-20 on
the d20.
Shape of the Bow
Your Signature Sculpt is a supple bow that is as tall
as you are. Sculptors with this signature excel at
staying out of harm’s way, leveraging stealth and
agility to strike at their foes from afar.
Subtle Bow
1st-level Shape of the Bow feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana bow that uses the
statistics of a longbow, though you ignore its heavy
property if you are Small or smaller. Your mana
bow doesn’t require ammunition for you; instead,
each ranged attack you make with it shoots a mana
arrow made of quickly sculpted magical energy that
dissipates immediately following the attack.
Hidden Shot
1st-level Shape of the Bow feature
Enchantment
Axe
If you are hidden from a creature when you hit it
with a ranged mana bow attack, you gain a +1 bonus
to the attack’s damage roll.
Agile Archer
6th-level Shape of the Bow feature
You gain proficiency in the Stealth skill. If you already
have proficiency in Stealth, you instead add double
your proficiency bonus to ability checks you make with
the skill. Additionally, you can take the Disengage or
Hide action as a bonus action on your turn.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts

Sculptor
Shape of the Brush & Palette
Your Signature Sculpt takes the form of a pair of
implements familiar to painters throughout the
multiverse: a palette from which to draw mana and
a paintbrush with which to apply it. Sculptors with
this signature are often driven to leave their mark
upon history in as many vivid colors as possible,
capturing beauty and magic in both two- and threedimensional artworks.
Art Supplies
1st-level Shape of the Brush & Palette feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of two objects: a mana brush
in one hand and a mana palette in the other. Your
mana brush uses the statistics of a sickle, though it
gains the finesse property for you, and your mana
palette uses the statistics of a shield.
While wielding both your mana brush and mana
palette, you can also use them as a set of painter’s
supplies.
Maker’s Mark
1st-level Shape of the Brush & Palette feature
Earth Bow
Quick Shot
11th-level Shape of the Bow feature
You can take shots in quick succession against a
single target. Immediately after you make a ranged
mana bow attack, you can use a bonus action to
make one additional ranged mana bow attack
against the same target. If you were hidden from the
target when you made the first attack, you are still
considered hidden from it for the purpose of this
additional attack.
Recurve Bow
15th-level Shape of the Bow feature
You learn to shape the path of your mana arrows
mid-flight. Once during each of your turns when
you make a ranged mana bow attack, you can add
your Intelligence modifier (a minimum of +1) to the
attack roll. You can wait until after you roll the d20
before deciding to use this feature, but must decide
before the DM says whether the attack roll succeeds
or fails.
Additionally, the range of your Eye for Detail
feature increases to 60 feet, and a creature must be
farther than 120 feet away from you to cause you to
lose focus due to distance.
14
When you hit a target with a mana brush attack,
you can mark it with mana until the start of your
next turn. When a creature other than you hits the
marked target with an attack, the attack deals an
extra 1d6 damage of the attack’s type to the target,
and the mark is consumed. A creature or object can
have multiple marks from this feature, but only one
mark is consumed with each hit. A mark disappears
after 1 minute, or when you shape your mana into
an item other than your signature sculpt.
Mixing Pigments
6th-level Shape of the Brush & Palette feature
As an artist seeking to capture ever more brilliant
colors, create more sophisticated forms, and find
more inspiring materials, you begin drawing mana
from multiple sources, empowering you to create
unprecedented works of art. Choose a second Mana
Source, which must be different from your first, and
one of the spell lists granted by that Mana Source.
Each spell from the chosen spell list is added to your
sculptor spell list.
When this feature adds new spells to your sculptor
spell list, you can immediately replace any number
of the sculptor spells you know with a different
spell of a level you can cast from among the added
spells. Additionally, whenever you finish a short
or long rest, you can replace a spell you know with
a different spell of a level for which you have spell
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
slots from your sculptor spell list.
When you reach 15th level in this class, you choose
a third Mana Source, which must be different from
your other two, and a spell list granted by that Mana
Source. Each spell from the chosen spell list is added
to your sculptor spell list.
Sublime Palette
11th-level Shape of the Brush & Palette feature
Each time you mark a target with your Maker’s Mark
feature, you can choose acid, cold, fire, lightning,
necrotic, or radiant damage. The extra damage the
mark deals is of the chosen damage type, instead of the
type dealt by the attack.
Additionally, the extra damage caused by the
mark increases to 1d12.
Mana Recovery
15th-level Shape of the Brush & Palette feature
Your familiarity with the many Mana Sources strewn
throughout the multiverse allows you to regain some
of your magical energy by absorbing the ambient
mana around you. When you finish a short rest, you
Natural Brush & Palette
can choose expended spell slots to recover. The spell
slots can have a combined level that is equal to or less
than a third of your sculptor level (rounded up), and
none of the slots can be 6th level or higher.
For example, if you’re a 15th-level sculptor, you
can recover up to five levels worth of spell slots. You
can recover a 4th-level and a 1st-level spell slot, a
3rd-level and a 2nd-level spell slot, a 3rd-level and
two 1st-level spell slots, a 1st-level and two 2nd-level
slots, or a 2nd-level and three 1st-level spell slots.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest.
Shape of the Buster
Your Signature Sculpt is a small cannon that coalesces
around one hand, allowing you to charge and release
devastating mana blasts. Sculptors with this signature
typically enjoy a challenge, relishing the opportunity
to learn new techniques by facing and defeating more
powerful foes.
Mega Buster
1st-level Shape of the Buster feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana cannon, which
is a martial ranged weapon with a normal range
of 15 feet and a long range of 30 feet that deals 1d8
bludgeoning damage. Your mana cannon doesn’t
require ammunition for you; instead, each ranged
attack you make with it shoots a brilliant ball of
mana that dissipates immediately following the
attack.
Charge Shot
1st-level Shape of the Buster feature
You can charge your signature sculpt with additional
mana, making its next projectile more powerful. As a
bonus action while wielding your mana cannon, you
can gain 1 charge. The next time you make a ranged
mana cannon attack, the attack’s range is 20/40, its
damage die becomes 1d10 for the attack, and the
charge is expended.
You can store a maximum of 1 charge at a time,
losing any remaining charges when you shape your
mana into an item that isn’t your mana cannon.
Full Charge
6th-level Shape of the Buster feature
The maximum number of charges you can store
increases to 2. Additionally, when you take the
Attack action on your turn while wielding your
mana cannon, you can forgo any number of your
attacks to gain an equal number of charges.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
15
Sculptor
When you make a ranged mana cannon attack
while you have 2 charges, the attack’s range is 30/60,
its damage die becomes 2d12 for the attack, and both
charges are expended. On a hit, you gain a bonus to
the damage roll equal to your Intelligence modifier
(a minimum of +1).
Master Weapon
11th-level Shape of the Buster feature
Your signature sculpt’s charge shot improves. When
you make a ranged mana cannon attack while you
have 2 charges, you can choose for the attack to
unleash additional effects depending on your mana
cannon’s damage type.
Acid. Until the start of your next turn, you are
surrounded by a defensive bubble of acid. For the
duration, whenever you would take damage, you
reduce the amount of damage you take by 2, and
each time a creature touches you or hits you with a
melee attack, it takes 1d4 acid damage.
Bludgeoning. Instead of attacking only one target,
you fire a blast from your mana cannon in a 30-footlong, 5-foot-wide line. You make a single attack roll,
which is then used to determine whether your attack
hits each creature in the line, but you make a separate
damage roll for each target you hit with the attack. If an
effect would give you advantage on the attack against
at least one of the targets, you make the attack roll with
advantage; the same applies for disadvantage.
Cold. On a hit, the target must succeed on a
Strength saving throw against your sculptor spell
save DC or be restrained by ice until it takes damage
again or until the start of your next turn.
Fire. Until the start of your next turn, you are
surrounded by fiery orbs that threaten to burn
nearby creatures. For the duration, the first time
a creature comes within 10 feet of you or starts its
turn there, you can cause an orb to lash out and deal
1d6 fire damage to that creature.
Lighting. On a hit, the electricity from your blast
arcs through the target like a conduit, leaping to
other creatures nearby. The target and each creature
other than you within 5 feet of the target takes 1d6
lightning damage.
Necrotic. On a hit, the target takes an additional
1d12 necrotic damage, and it can’t regain hit points
until the start of your next turn.
Radiant. On a hit, the target must succeed on a
Constitution saving throw against your sculptor
spell save DC or become blinded until the end of
your next turn. Once a creature is blinded by this
effect, it has advantage on saving throws it makes
against being blinded by this feature for 24 hours.
Quick Charge
15th-level Shape of the Buster feature
While you are wielding your mana cannon, when you
use a sculptor class feature with your bonus action
or cast a sculptor spell with a casting time of 1 bonus
action, you gain 1 charge. For example, when you use
the bonus action granted by your Charge Shot feature
to gain 1 charge, you instead gain 2 charges.
Shape of the Chakram
Your Signature Sculpt is a chakram, a large ring
with a bladed outer edge that lends itself to trick
shots, relying on your precise calculations to execute
them with style. Sculptors with this signature tend
to prefer a more intellectual approach to combat,
applying physics and geometry to attack from
strategic angles.
Ricochet Ring
1st-level Shape of the Chakram feature
Arcane Buster
16
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana chakram, which
is a martial melee weapon with the thrown (range
20/60) property that deals 1d8 slashing damage.
When you make a ranged mana chakram attack,
it returns to your hand immediately following
the attack through a series of harmless banks and
ricochets.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
Defensive Strategy
1st-level Shape of the Chakram feature
When you take the Attack action on your turn and
make only melee mana chakram attacks, you gain
a +1 bonus to your AC until the start of your next
turn, given you aren’t wielding a shield.
or object that you can see within 60 feet of you. Make
a ranged mana chakram attack against the target.
Whether the attack hits or misses, your chakram
ricochets to a number of additional creatures and
objects of your choice that you can see up to your
Intelligence modifier (a minimum of up to 3 targets).
Each target must be within 60 feet of you and within
20 feet of at least one other target. The initial attack
roll is used to determine whether your attack hits
each additional target, but you make a separate
damage roll for each target you hit with this action.
Seek & Destroy
15th-level Shape of the Chakram feature
You learn to leave traces of your mana behind on
targets you hit with your signature sculpt, allowing
it to unerringly seek out those creatures, even
around corners or behind cover. When you hit a
creature or object with a mana chakram attack, you
can mark the target for 1 minute. While a target
is marked, your mana chakram attacks against
it ignore all cover (including full cover) and any
disadvantage you may have on the attack roll, so
long as the target is within range.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a short or long rest, unless you
expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it
again.
Shape of the Dagger
Your Signature Sculpt is a long dagger ideal for
combat near and afar. Sculptors with this signature
usually take a nimble, dynamic approach to
encounters, focusing on ambushes, mobility, and
furious flurries of attacks.
Divine Chakram
Centripetal Cyclone
6th-level Shape of the Chakram feature
When you take the Attack action and make a mana
chakram attack, you can immediately use your
bonus action to amplify the centripetal force of your
spinning chakram and generate a small cyclone in
your space until the start of your next turn. While
the cyclone persists, other creatures’ ranged weapon
attacks that pass into or through your space have
disadvantage. As you move, the cyclone remains
centered on you for its duration.
Complex Calculation
11th-level Shape of the Chakram feature
You can perform a quick geometric calculation to
strike multiple targets with a single throw, precisely
ricocheting your chakram from one to the next. As an
action, you throw your mana chakram at a creature
Knife Collection
1st-level Shape of the Dagger feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana dagger that
uses the statistics of a dagger. Each time you
make a ranged mana dagger attack, you can shape
your mana into a new mana dagger immediately
following the attack (no action required).
Dagger Arts
1st-level Shape of the Dagger feature
When you take the Attack action and make a mana
dagger attack, you can make one additional mana
dagger attack this turn as a bonus action. You don’t
add your ability modifier to the damage of this
bonus attack, unless that modifier is negative or
your sculptor level is at least 11.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
17
Sculptor
Nimble Striker
6th-level Shape of the Dagger feature
Your base walking speed increases by 10 feet, and
if you make a melee mana dagger attack against
a creature, your movement doesn’t provoke
opportunity attacks from the target for the rest of
the turn.
Instant Transmission
11th-level Shape of the Dagger feature
Inherent Mana
Dagger
You can teleport yourself to your signature sculpt
when you throw it. Once during each of your turns
when you hit a creature or object with a ranged
mana dagger attack you make as part of the Attack
action, you can teleport to the unoccupied space
nearest to the target. If you do, you can make an
additional melee mana dagger attack as part of the
same action.
You can use this feature an unlimited number of
times during combat, with adrenaline to fuel the
magic. Outside of combat, you can use this feature a
number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier
(a minimum of once), and you regain all of your
expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Torrent of Blades
15th-level Shape of the Dagger feature
As an action while wielding your mana dagger, you
can conjure hundreds of copies of your signature
sculpt and launch them to pin your foes under a
furious hail of blades. Each creature in a 60-foot
cone originating from you must make a Dexterity
saving throw against your sculptor spell save DC.
A Huge or larger creature has disadvantage on the
saving throw, while a creature farther than 20 feet
from you has advantage on it. On a failed save, a
target takes 10d4 damage of the type dealt by your
mana dagger, and it becomes restrained for 1 minute
if it is within 5 feet of the ground or a structure. On
a successful save, a target takes half as much damage
and isn’t restrained.
A creature restrained by this feature can use
its action to make a Strength (Athletics) check
against your sculptor spell save DC, freeing itself
on a success. Alternatively, any creature that isn’t
restrained can use its action to free a restrained
creature within 5 feet of it.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a
spell slot of 5th level or higher to use it again.
18
Shape of the Drill
Your Signature Sculpt is a massive two-handed
drill that excels at making continual attacks against
a single target, utilizing rotational momentum to
devastating effect. Sculptors with this signature are
often tenacious, stubborn souls who refuse to be
stopped by the obstacles standing in their way.
Special thanks to Sasha Laranoa Harving and Spencer
“Spencisms” Jackson for contributing ideas essential to
the creation of this subclass
Heavy-Duty Drill
1st-level Shape of the Drill feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana drill, which is a
two-handed martial melee weapon that deals 1d8
piercing damage.
Spin Up
1st-level Shape of the Drill feature
When you make a melee weapon attack with your
mana drill, you gain 1 spin point immediately
following the attack. You can have up to 3 spin points.
You lose all of your spin points if you end your turn
without making a melee mana drill attack. You gain
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
a benefit for each spin point you have, as shown on
the Spin Up table, and these benefits stack; when
you have 2 or more spin points, you gain the related
benefit for having that number of points along with
each benefit for having fewer spin points, as well.

opportunity attacks.
Drill Bit
6th-level Shape of the Drill feature
Your drill allows you to move through sand, earth,
mud, and ice. While wielding your mana drill, you
have a burrowing speed of 20 feet.
Once you reach 15th level in this class, you can
burrow through solid rock at half this burrowing
speed while wielding your mana drill, leaving a
5-foot radius tunnel in your wake.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a short or long rest, unless you
expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it

Shape of the Flail
Your Signature Sculpt is a flail with a chain you can
extend and retract when you attack with it. Sculptors
with this signature can leverage the deceptive
adaptability of a chain tipped with a heavy ball,
striking foes from a favorable distance and ensnaring
objects and enemies in the chain.
Ball & Chain
1st-level Shape of the Flail feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana flail that uses
the statistics of a flail, though it has a reach of 15
feet for you. When you use your mana flail to attack
a creature farther than 5 feet from you, you have
disadvantage on the attack roll if you are within 5 feet
of a hostile creature who can see you and who isn’t
incapacitated, unless your sculptor level is at least 6.
Shield Proficiency
1st-level Shape of the Flail feature
You gain proficiency with shields.
Natural Drill

Sculptor
Disarming Lash
6th-level Shape of the Flail feature
You can wrap your flail’s chain around a weapon as
you attack its wielder. When you hit a creature with
a melee mana flail attack, you can immediately use
your bonus action to attempt to disarm the target,
potentially ripping an object from its grasp. The target
must succeed on a Strength saving throw against
your sculptor spell save DC or drop an object of
your choice that it’s holding. The object lands on the
ground in a space of your choice within 15 feet of you.
Entangling Chain
11th-level Shape of the Flail feature
When you hit a creature or object within 5 feet of
you with a melee mana flail attack, you can use a
bonus action to attempt to wrap your flail’s chain
tightly around the target. The target must succeed on
a Strength saving throw against your sculptor spell
save DC or become restrained. An object that is no
more than one size larger than you automatically fails
its saving throw, while one that is two or more sizes
larger than you automatically succeeds. A creature
restrained with this feature can repeat the saving
throw as an action during each of its turns, freeing
itself on a successful save. If you make a mana flail
attack against another target or shape your mana into
any other item, the restrained target is released.
While you have a creature or object restrained
with this feature, you can fling it a short distance.
As an action, you whip the restrained target toward
a space you can see within your mana flail’s reach.
The creature or object takes 3d8 damage of the type
dealt by your mana flail, lands prone in the chosen
space or in the nearest unoccupied space if that one
is occupied, and is freed from being restrained. If
a creature occupies the chosen space, that creature
must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw against
your sculptor spell save DC or take the same damage
as the whipped target and be knocked prone. An
object in the chosen space automatically takes the
damage.
Wrecking Ball
15th-level Shape of the Flail feature
You can channel massive amounts of mana into your
flail, making it larger and more destructive. As an
action, your mana flail gains the following benefits
for 1 minute:
Divination Flail
20
• Its reach increases to 30 feet.
• It deals double damage to objects and structures.
• When you hit with a mana flail attack, it releases
a shockwave. The target and each creature and
object other than you within 5 feet of the target
takes 1d8 damage of the type dealt by your mana
flail. An object that is being worn or carried is
immune to this damage.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a short or long rest, unless you
expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it
again.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
Shape of the Foil
Your Signature Sculpt is a thin, flexible blade made
for fencing. Sculptors with this signature tend
to savor one-on-one duels, focusing with deadly
precision on a single foe even in the midst of a
crowded melee. There is no greater thrill for such a
sculptor than testing their skill against a worthy foe.
Special thanks to tntrex for contributing ideas essential
to the creation of this subclass
Elegant Épée
1st-level Shape of the Foil feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana foil that uses the
statistics of a rapier.
En Garde
1st-level Shape of the Foil feature
While wielding your mana foil in combat, you can
use your bonus action to verbally issue a challenge
to an enemy you can see within 30 feet of you. The
challenge ends when the target drops to 0 hit points,
when you make an attack against a different creature
or use this feature to challenge another creature,
when you shape your mana into an item that isn’t
your mana foil, or when you are no longer in combat.
While challenging a creature with this feature, you
gain the following benefits against it:
• You gain a +1 bonus to melee mana foil attack rolls
against the target.
• When the target hits you with an attack roll, you
can use your reaction to add your Intelligence
modifier (a minimum of +1) to your AC against
the attack, potentially causing it to miss.
Refined Riposte
11th-level Shape of the Foil feature
Your signature sculpt has become just as quick and
keen as your mind. You gain the following benefits
while challenging a creature with your En Garde
feature:
• When you hit the target with a melee mana foil
attack, you add your Intelligence modifier (a
minimum of +1) to the attack’s damage roll.
• When the reaction granted by the feature causes
the triggering attack to miss you, you can make a
melee mana foil attack against the target as part of
the same reaction, given it is within your reach.
Quick Challenge
15th-level Shape of the Foil feature
When you use the bonus action or reaction granted
by your Quick Sculpt feature, or when the creature
you’re dueling with your En Garde feature is
reduced to 0 hit points, you can immediately use
your En Garde feature to challenge a new creature
within range (no action required).
Acid Foil
Once you gain the Eye for Detail feature at 14th
level, you gain the benefits granted by that feature
against any creature you’re challenging with this
feature.
Graceful Technique
6th-level Shape of the Foil feature
Your dueling technique and fighting footwork
become more refined, granting you the following
benefits while challenging a creature with your En
Garde feature:
• Your walking speed increases by 10 feet. This extra
movement can be used only to move closer to the
target.
• When you use the reaction granted by the feature,
you retain the bonus to your AC until the end of
the turn, instead of just for the triggering attack.

Sculptor
Structural Integrity
11th-level Shape of the Hammer feature
You improve the structural design of your hammer,
increasing its striking power without making
it more difficult to wield. Your mana hammer’s
damage die increases to 2d10 for you.
Bring Down the Hammer
15th-level Shape of the Hammer feature
Evocation Hammer
Shape of the Hammer
Your Signature Sculpt is a massive two-handed
hammer you can slam into your foes with earthshaking force. Sculptors with this signature usually
prefer direct and brutal battles, breaking through
enemy forces one crushing blow at a time.
Hammer Time
1st-level Shape of the Hammer feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana hammer that uses
the statistics of a maul, though you ignore its heavy
property if you are Small or smaller.
Mighty Maul
1st-level Shape of the Hammer feature
Whenever you roll a 1 on a damage die for a melee
mana hammer attack, you can replace it with a 2.
Line Breaker
6th-level Shape of the Hammer feature
You can cause the mana in your hammer to flare
at the moment of impact, striking your target with
greater force. Once per turn when you hit a creature
or unsecured object with a melee mana hammer
attack, you can push the target up to 10 feet straight
away from you.
22
As an action while wielding your mana hammer,
you can slam it onto the ground, creating a mighty
shockwave. The ground within a 30-foot-radius
sphere centered on you becomes difficult terrain
until cleared, and each creature of your choice in
the area must succeed on a Strength saving throw
against your sculptor spell save DC or take 5d10
damage of the type dealt by your mana hammer and
be knocked prone. A creature that succeeds on its
saving throw takes half as much damage and isn’t
knocked prone. Each object in the area that isn’t
being worn or carried takes damage as though it
failed the saving throw.
Each 5-foot square turned into difficult terrain by
this feature requires 10 minutes to clear.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a
spell slot of 5th level or higher to use it again.
Shape of the Knuckle
Your Signature Sculpt is a pair of gloves that
materialize around your hands, perfectly equipping
you for all-out brawls. Each time you sculpt these
gloves, you can choose a new design for them,
growing crystallized knuckle guards for one fight
and producing claws at the ends of your fingertips
for the next. Sculptors with this signature tend to
prefer rough, punishing fistfights that test their
toughness and moxie against the most dangerous
foes the multiverse has to offer - up close and
personal.
Inspired by Benjamin Huffman’s Pugilist Class, as well
as by the brass knuckles, katar, and knuckle knives
weapons from The Ultimate Adventurer’s Handbook
Brawling Gloves
1st-level Shape of the Knuckle feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a pair of mana gloves that
appear on your hands over any clothing or armor
you’re wearing. Each time you shape your mana
into your mana gloves, you can choose bludgeoning,
piercing, or slashing damage as its damage type.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
While you wear your mana gloves and wield no
other weapons, you gain the following benefits:
• Your unarmed strikes deal 1d4 damage of
your mana gloves’ damage type, instead of the
bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed
strike. When you reach certain levels in this class,
the damage die improves: to a d6 at 5th level, and
to a d8 at 11th level.
• When you make an unarmed strike as part of the
Attack action on your turn, you can make one
unarmed strike as a bonus action.
For the purpose of your sculptor spells, the pair of
mana gloves is considered to be a single weapon, and
your unarmed strikes are considered to be weapon
attacks.
Once you reach 6th level, while you wear your
shape gloves, your unarmed strikes count as
magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance
and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.
Thick Skin
6th-level Shape of the Knuckle feature
You’ve taken enough artistic criticism and enough
physical blows by now that you can handle nearly
anything. Whenever you finish a short or long rest,
you gain a number of temporary hit points equal to
your sculptor level.
Additionally, you can use a bonus action and
expend a spell slot to gain temporary hit points
equal to half your sculptor level + a number of d8
equal to the level of the expended spell slot.
Fire Knuckles
Shape of the Lance
Your Signature Sculpt is a regal lance designed for
elegant combat both on foot and astride a steed.
Sculptors with this signature shine most brightly
when charging into combat with the cavalry, but
remain well-equipped to act as infantry on the front
lines.
Haymakers
11th-level Shape of the Knuckle feature
Special thanks to Spencer “Spencisms” Jackson for
contributing ideas essential to the creation of this subclass
When you make your first unarmed strike on your
turn, and you don’t already have disadvantage on the
attack, you can decide to throw haymaker punches.
Until the end of the turn, you make all unarmed
strikes with disadvantage, but when you hit with an
unarmed strike it deals 8 + your Strength modifier
+ your Intelligence modifier damage of your mana
gloves’ type, instead of rolling the damage die
normally.
Jousting Stick
1st-level Shape of the Lance feature
Combination Strike
15th-level Shape of the Knuckle feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana lance that uses
the statistics of a lance, though you don’t have
disadvantage when you use it to attack a target
within 5 feet of you.
Shield Proficiency
1st-level Shape of the Lance feature
You gain proficiency with shields.
When you use a bonus action granted by a sculptor
class feature or you cast a sculptor spell with a casting
time of 1 bonus action, you can make one additional
unarmed strike as part of the same bonus action.
Mana Mount
6th-level Shape of the Lance feature
You learn to sculpt animate mounts from your
mana. You learn the find steed spell, and can cast it
as a ritual. If you already know a spell that would be
granted by this feature, you learn a different spell of
your choice from your sculptor spell list. Any spell
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
23
Sculptor
you learn through this feature counts as a sculptor
spell for you and doesn’t count against the number
of spells you know. When you summon a creature
with a spell you learned through this feature,
its appearance takes on the familiar aesthetic
properties of your Mana Source, though this has no
effect on the creature’s statistics.
Once you reach 15th level in this class, you learn
the find greater steed spell from Xanathar’s Guide to
Everything, and can cast it as a ritual.
Burst of Speed
15th-level Shape of the Lance feature
Charging Thrust
11th-level Shape of the Lance feature
Your Signature Sculpt is a mallet and a chisel, a
pair of tools similar to those used by nonmagical
sculptors. Like mundane artists who use their tools
to shape clay or stone, you use these implements
to take finer control over the mana you sculpt.
Sculptors with this signature typically focus less on
weapons and combat, and more on their craft and
artistry, striving to achieve perfect control over their
chosen medium: mana.
If you move at least 15 feet in a straight line toward
a target immediately before you hit it with a melee
mana lance attack, the target takes an additional
1d12 damage from the attack. If the target is the
same size or smaller than you, it must succeed on a
Strength saving throw against your sculptor spell
save DC or be knocked prone. If you are mounted,
the target must make the saving throw to avoid
being knocked prone if it is the same size or smaller
than your mount.
Transmutation
Lance
You can channel a blast of mana through the grip of
your lance to propel yourself forward. On your turn
in combat, you can double your speed and that of
any creature you’re mounted on until the end of the
turn. You can’t use this feature if you’ve used it since
the start of your last turn.
Shape of the Mallet & Chisel
Special thanks to Sasha Laranoa Harving for
commissioning this subclass
Sculpting Tools
1st-level Shape of the Mallet & Chisel feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of two objects: a mana
mallet in one hand and a mana chisel in the other.
Your mana mallet uses the statistics of a light
hammer, and your shape chisel uses the statistics
of a dagger, though both lose their thrown property.
Your signature sculpt counts as two separate
weapons for the purposes of two-weapon fighting
and any other effect that requires you to be dual
wielding, but it is considered to be a single weapon
for the purpose of your sculptor spells.
While wielding both your mana mallet and mana
chisel, you can also use them as a set of mason’s
tools.
Cantrip Sculpting
1st-level Shape of the Mallet & Chisel feature
You learn any two cantrips of your choice. You must
be wielding both your mana mallet and your mana
chisel to cast any cantrip you learn through this
feature. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for
these spells.
You learn one additional cantrip from any class
when you reach 6th level in this class, and again
when you reach 11th level in this class.

Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
lightning, necrotic, or radiant damage type for its
duration.
Additionally, once per turn when you deal damage
to a creature or object with a cantrip you learned
through your Cantrip Sculpting feature, you can add
your Intelligence modifier to the damage roll.
Spark of Ingenuity
15th-level Shape of the Mallet & Chisel feature
You have such a comprehensive understanding of
sculpting mana into specialized forms that you can
create a new magical effect at a moment’s notice.
As an action while wielding both your mana mallet
and mallet chisel, you can cast any spell you choose
of 4th level or lower without expending a spell slot,
so long as it has a casting time of 1 action or 1 bonus
action. You cast the spell at 4th level, and it counts as
a sculptor spell for you for its duration.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a
spell lot of 5th level or higher to use it again.
When you reach 20th level in this class, the spell
you cast with this feature can be of 5th level or
lower, and you cast the spell at 5th level.
Inherent Mana
Mallet & Chisel
Shape of the Needle & Thread
Sculpting Secrets
6th-level Shape of the Mallet & Chisel feature
You discover ways of sculpting mana into spells with
your mallet and chisel that other sculptors simply
can’t replicate. You learn any 1st-level spell and any
2nd-level spell of your choice. You must be wielding
both your mana mallet and your mana chisel to cast
the spells you learn through this feature. Each spell
you learn through this feature counts as a sculptor
spell for you and doesn’t count against the number
of spells you know.
You can cast any spell you learned through this
feature without expending a spell slot. Once you cast
a spell with this feature, you must finish a long rest
before you can cast a spell with this feature again.
When you reach certain levels in this class, you
learn one additional spell of your choice: any 3rdlevel spell at 10th level, any 4th-level spell at 14th
level, and any 5th-level spell at 18th level.
Cantrip Genius
11th-level Shape of the Mallet & Chisel feature
You can alter the damage types of your cantrips in a
similar manner to your mana weapons. When you
cast a cantrip you learned through your Cantrip
Sculpting feature that deals damage, you can
substitute its damage type with the acid, cold, fire,
Your Signature Sculpt is a simple needle and thread
- humble sewing implements that, in the hands of a
skilled sculptor, hold the power to stitch together the
fabric of reality itself. Sculptors with this signature
typically form strong ties with their allies and
frequently consider themselves to be caretakers.
Special thanks to Spencer “Spencisms” Jackson for
contributing ideas essential to the creation of this subclass
Sewing Kit
1st-level Shape of the Needle & Thread feature
When you shape your mana into your signature sculpt,
it takes the form of two objects: a mana needle in one
hand and a mana thread in the other, with one end of
the thread tied to the base of the needle. Your mana
needle uses the statistics of a shortsword, though
it gains the reach property for you, and your mana
thread uses the statistics of a whip, though it gains the
light property for you. Your signature sculpt counts
as two separate weapons for the purposes of twoweapon fighting and any other effect that requires you
to be dual wielding, but it is considered to be a single
weapon for the purpose of your sculptor spells.
While wielding both your mana needle and
mana thread, you can cast the mending cantrip.
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for the spell.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
25
Sculptor
Ties that Bind
6th-level Shape of the Needle & Thread feature
You can use your needle and thread to tie yourself to
others. You learn the warding bond spell. Unless you
know the spell through another source, you must be
wielding both your mana needle and mana thread
to cast this spell, which counts as a sculptor spell
for you and doesn’t count against the number of
spells you know. If you already know warding bond,
you learn a different spell of your choice from your
sculptor spell list.
Additionally, immediately after you hit a creature
with both your mana needle and mana thread on a
turn, you can stitch yourself to the target, causing an
effect dependent on the creature’s size:
One size larger than you or smaller. The creature
must succeed on a Strength saving throw against
your sculptor spell save DC or become unable to
move farther than 10 feet away from you until the
end of your next turn.
Two or more sizes larger than you. If the creature
is two or more sizes larger than you, you are
dragged with the creature as it moves until the
end of your next turn.
The effect ends early if you shape your mana into
any item that isn’t your signature sculpt, or if you
stitch yourself to a different creature.
Sewing Machine
11th-level Shape of the Needle & Thread feature
Your mastery of stitching allows you to quickly
interweave your signature sculpt attacks. Each time on
your turn that you hit a creature with a melee mana
needle attack, you can immediately make an additional
melee mana thread attack against that creature. You
don’t add your ability modifier to the damage of the
additional attack, unless that modifier is negative or
you have the Two-Weapon Fighting style.
Thread of Fate
15th-level Shape of the Needle & Thread feature
You can use your needle and thread to magically
sew a creature’s fate to your own. As an action while
wielding both your mana needle and mana thread,
you can choose a creature you can see within 10 feet
of you and tie its destiny to your own for 1 minute,
causing an effect dependent on whether the target is
an ally or an enemy:
Ally. You and the target share a common pool of
hit points for the duration. This pool of hit points
equals the sum of the target’s current hit points
and your own, with a hit point maximum equal
to the sum of the target’s hit point maximum
and your own. For the duration, whenever you or
the target would make an ability check or saving
throw, you or it can do so using the higher of your
or the target’s bonus. At the end of the duration,
or when the common pool of hit points is reduced
to 0, the target’s hit points and your own each
become 1 + half the hit points remaining in the
pool, and the effect ends.
Enemy. The target must succeed on a Charisma
saving throw against your sculptor spell save DC or
be forced to share any grisly fate you suffer. For the
duration, if you are reduced to 0 hit points or die,
the same happens to the target. At the end of each
of the target’s turns, it can repeat the saving throw,
ending the effects early on a successful save.
Once you use either of this feature’s effects, you
can’t use that effect again until you finish a long
rest, unless you expend a spell slot of 5th level or
higher to use the effect again.

Shape of the Replica
Sculptors with this Signature Sculpt tend to look
outward, admiring the artistry of other creators
throughout the multiverse. Believing that imitation
is the sincerest form of flattery and seeking to refine
their own skill, these sculptors faithfully replicate
inspiring pieces. They generally prefer utilizing
impromptu strategies rather than planning ahead,
and enjoy dynamic, varied fights. Your signature
sculpt does not have a single, specialized form;
instead, you learn to quickly shape your mana into
exact copies of whatever weapons might be nearby.
Scale Model
1st-level Shape of the Replica feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana replica of any
weapon you can see within 60 feet of you (you can
choose a different weapon each time), though it
is scaled to your size. Your mana replica uses the
statistics of the weapon you choose to copy, though
it gains the finesse property for you, and while
you wield it loses any heavy or loading property
the weapon may have. It also loses any magical
properties it may have. If the copied weapon
normally requires ammunition, each ranged attack
you make with it instead shoots a projectile made of
quickly sculpted mana that dissipates immediately
following the attack.
Disposable Duplicate
6th-level Shape of the Replica feature
Your mana replica gains the thrown (range 60/150)
property for you, and its damage die can’t be lower
than 1d8, regardless of the statistics of the copied
weapon. Each time you throw the mana replica for
an attack, you can shape your mana into a new mana
replica immediately following the attack (no action
required).
Furious Forgery
11th-level Shape of the Replica feature
When you make a mana replica attack against a
creature holding or carrying the copied weapon, the
attack deals an additional 1d8 damage on a hit.
Perfect Replica
15th-level Shape of the Replica feature
When you create a mana replica of a magic weapon,
you can choose for the replica to have each of the
copied weapon’s magical properties, with the
exclusion of any sentience property. The magical
properties remain for 1 minute, and you count as
Theatric Replicas
being attuned to your mana replica for the duration,
ignoring any attunement requirements and the
number of magic items you’re already attuned to.
You can use this feature to copy magic weapons with
a rarity of rare or lower an unlimited number of times.
Weapons of higher rarities, though, take a greater toll
to mimic. If you use this feature to copy a weapon with
a rarity of very rare or legendary, you can’t use this
feature again until you finish a long rest, unless you
expend a spell slot of 5th level or higher to use it again.
If you use this feature to copy an artifact weapon, you
can’t use this feature again until 7 days have passed,
and at the end of the minute you take necrotic damage
equal to half your hit point maximum and your hit
point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the
necrotic damage you took this way. This damage can’t
be reduced or prevented in any way, and your hit point
maximum can’t be restored by any means short of a
wish spell until 7 days have passed, after which point
finishing a long rest restores this reduction to your hit
point maximum.

Sculptor
Shape of the Rifle
Your Signature Sculpt is a bolt action rifle designed
to inflict powerful strikes at great range. Sculptors
with this signature can leverage extraordinary
patience and discipline, savoring the act of lining up
a clean shot from a stationary position.
Inspired by the rifle weapon from
The Ultimate Adventurer’s Handbook
Sniper Rifle
1st-level Shape of the Rifle feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana rifle, which is a
two-handed martial ranged weapon with a normal
range of 100 feet and a long range of 400 feet that
deals 1d10 piercing damage. Your mana rifle doesn’t
require ammunition for you; instead, each ranged
attack you make with it fires a slug of hardened
mana that dissipates immediately following the
attack. When your mana rifle is used to make a
ranged attack, it emits a thunderous boom audible
from as far away as 400 feet.
Precision Shot
1st-level Shape of the Rifle feature
As a skilled sharpshooter, you can hunker in
place to set up a precision shot. As an action while
wielding your mana rifle, you can sight and fire on
a target you can see within the rifle’s range. Make a
ranged mana rifle attack against the target, which
ignores the disadvantage normally imposed by you
or the target being prone. Your speed is reduced to
0 feet until the start of your next turn. You can’t
use this feature if you’ve used more than half your
movement this turn.
Once you reach 3rd level in this class, this attack
deals an extra 1d6 damage of your mana rifle’s type
on a hit. This extra damage increases when you reach
certain levels in this class: to 2d6 at 5th, 3d6 at 7th,
4d6 at 9th, 5d6 at 11th, 6d6 at 13th, 7d6 at 15th, 8d6 at
17th, and and 9d6 at 19th.
have darkvision out to your mana rifle’s long range,
and can discern fine details in that range as though
looking at something no more than 100 feet away from
you. Additionally, you don’t suffer disadvantage on any
ranged mana rifle attack due to attacking at long range.
Suppressor. The thunderous boom created when
you make a ranged mana rifle attack is only audible
out to a range of 10 feet.
Specialist Rifle
11th-level Shape of the Rifle feature
When you shape your mana into your mana rifle,
you can equip it with up to two Firearm Attachments
simultaneously, gaining the benefits of both.
Improved Attachments
15th-level Shape of the Rifle feature
You gain additional benefits from the attachments
you have equipped to your rifle.
Extension. When you use your Precision Shot
feature, the normal range of the attack increases to
300 feet, and its long range increases to 1200 feet.
Scope. The range of your Eye for Detail feature
increases to your mana rifle’s normal range, and a
creature must be farther than your mana rifle’s long
range from you to cause you to lose focus due to
distance.
Suppressor. Your ranged mana rifle
attacks no longer create
noise, and when you’re
hidden from a creature,
missing it with a ranged
mana rifle attack doesn’t
Firearm Attachments
6th-level Shape of the Rifle feature
When you shape your mana into your mana
rifle, you can choose to equip it with one of
the following attachments, which grant you

increases to 150 feet, and its long range
increases to 600 feet.

Shape of the Scythe
Your Signature Sculpt is an enormous, grisly scythe
whose fell swings reap the very life force from those
unfortunate enough to fall to its blade. Sculptors
with this signature usually consider themselves
grim vigilantes, wielding weapons terrifying enough
to make their enemies forever fear the sound of a
blade slicing through the air.

Dread Scythe
1st-level Shape of the Scythe feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana scythe that uses
the statistics of a glaive, though you ignore its heavy
property if you are Small or smaller.
Grim Reaper
1st-level Shape of the Scythe feature
Air Scythe
When you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with
a melee mana scythe attack, you gain a number
of temporary hit points equal to your Intelligence
modifier (a minimum of 1).
Grievous Wound
6th-level Shape of the Scythe feature
Your scythe can inflict horrific lasting damage to
those you strike with it, consuming a portion of
their life force. When you hit a creature with a melee
mana scythe attack, you can reduce the target’s
hit point maximum by an amount equal to the
damage taken. The target dies if this effect reduces
its hit point maximum to 0. The creature’s hit point
maximum returns to its normal value when it
finishes a long rest.
Soul Harvester
11th-level Shape of the Scythe feature
Your scythe’s blade becomes even more wicked,
perfect for felling your foes. Your mana scythe’s
damage die becomes 1d20 for you.
Reap & Sow
15th-level Shape of the Scythe feature
Your scythe can harvest the life force from its
victims in an even more effective and devastating
way. When you reduce a creature’s hit point
maximum with your Grievous Wound feature, you
can regain an equal number of hit points.
You can use this feature a number of times equal
to your Intelligence modifier (a minimum of once).
You regain all expended uses when you finish a long
rest. If you have no remaining uses of this feature,
you can expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to
use it again.

Shape of the Shears
Your Signature Sculpt is a comically large pair
of shears that can be used to slice through your
enemies’ defenses as easily as cloth. Sculptors with
this signature often yearn to cut a clean path through
all the nonsense and red tape they see in the world,
opening the most expedient paths to greatness.

Scissor Blades
1st-level Shape of the Shears feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of mana shears that use
the statistics of a greatsword, though you ignore its
heavy property if you are Small or smaller.
Shear Terror
1st-level Shape of the Shears feature
Once during each of your turns when you hit a target
with a melee mana shears attack, you can cause the
target to suffer a -1 penalty to its AC until the start of
your next turn.
When you reach higher levels in this class, the
AC penalty improves: to -2 at 6th level, to -3 at
11th level, and to -4 at 17th level.

Your shears become sharp enough to slice
through the threads of magic that make up
the Weave. As an action while wielding your mana
shears, you can end a spell effect on a creature
within your reach. If the spell is 3rd level or lower,
it automatically ends on the target; otherwise, you
make an Intelligence check with DC equal to 10 +
the spell’s level. On a success, the spell ends on the
target.
You can use this feature twice, and you regain all
of your expended uses when you finish a long rest.
If you have no remaining uses of this feature, you
can expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it
again.
Matter Cutter
11th-level Shape of the Shears feature
Your shears’ blades have grown so exquisitely sharp
that you can cut through even extremely durable
materials with improbable efficiency. Your melee
mana shears attacks deal double damage to objects
and structures.
30
Arcane Shears
Reality Slit
15th-level Shape of the Shears feature
Your shears allow you to cut a hole in reality,
slicing through the boundaries between planes. As
an action while wielding your mana shears, you
can cast the plane shift spell without expending
a spell slot. When you do, it counts as a sculptor
spell for you, and you can only specify the plane to
which you wish to travel, not a specific destination
within it, and your destination within that plane is
determined either randomly or by the DM.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a
spell slot of 5th level or higher to use it again.

mana shield’s AC bonus increases beyond the

Conjuration
Shield
Bulwark Tactics
6th-level Shape of the Shield feature
You gain new tactical insight into using your shield
for both offense and defense, granting you the
following benefits.
Shield Charge. Once during each of your turns,
when you move at least 20 feet in a straight line
toward a target and hit it with a melee mana shield
attack, you can force the target to succeed on a
Strength saving throw against your sculptor spell
save DC or be knocked prone.
Fortification Wall. As an action while wielding
your mana shield, you can entrench it in the ground
at your feet, altering its dimensions to create a
straight wall that is up to 4 feet tall, 15 feet long, and
1 foot thick. While entrenched, your mana shield
can’t be used as a shield or weapon, instead acting as
a magical barrier that grants its shield AC bonus to
each creature of your choice alongside it. While your
mana shield is entrenched, you can move and act
normally, but it doesn’t move with you. It remains
entrenched until you shape your mana into another
mana item or a new copy of your mana shield.
Crushing Bulwark
11th-level Shape of the Shield feature
When you knock a creature prone with your Shield
Charge, you can immediately use your bonus action
to make an additional melee mana shield attack
against the target.
Shape of the Shield
Your Signature Sculpt is a massive two-handed
shield larger even than yourself, that you can
use both to defend yourself from attacks and to
pummel your enemies. Sculptors with this signature
commonly believe that the best offense is a good
defense, and that protecting their allies is of utmost
importance.
Fortress Shield
1st-level Shape of the Shield feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana shield that
uses the statistics of a shield, though it requires
two hands to wield and is about as tall and wide
as you are. You can also use your mana shield as a
two-handed martial melee weapon that deals 1d10
bludgeoning damage.
When you reach certain levels in this class, your
Entrenched Warfare
15th-level Shape of the Shield feature
When you entrench your mana shield with your
Fortification Wall, you can temporarily seal the
wall’s mana and immediately shape your mana into
another copy of your mana shield as part of the
same action. If you do, the sealed wall remains for
1 minute, after which it dissipates. While you wield
your mana shield alongside the wall, you benefit
from your signature sculpt’s shield AC bonus only
once, not the combined total.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a short or long rest, unless you
expend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it
again.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts

Sculptor
Shape of the Trident
Your Signature Sculpt is a fierce trident that offers
the mobility and reach you need to control your foes
from many positions on the battlefield. Sculptors
with this signature tend to be tactically-minded,
placing themselves in strategic locations to exploit
enemy weaknesses and press their advantage.
Tactical Armament
1st-level Shape of the Trident feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana trident that uses
the statistics of a trident, though for you its damage
die becomes 1d8, and its versatile damage die
becomes 1d10. While you wield your mana trident
with two hands, it gains the reach property.
Shield Proficiency
1st-level Shape of the Trident feature
You gain proficiency with shields.
Infantry Guardian
6th-level Shape of the Trident feature
You can set your trident to receive a charge. As a
bonus action while wielding your mana trident,
choose a creature you can see that is at least 20 feet
away from you and reduce your speed to 0 feet until
the start of your next turn. For the duration, if the
target willingly moves within your mana trident’s
reach, you can use your reaction to make a melee
mana trident attack against it. On a hit, roll your
mana trident’s damage die one additional time and
add the result to the attack’s damage.
Flex Strike
11th-level Shape of the Trident feature
You can dramatically bend and flex the structure of
your signature sculpt to redirect attacks when you
miss your target. Once per turn when you miss with
a mana trident attack, you can make one additional
mana trident attack as part of the same action or
reaction.
Additionally, when you make a ranged mana
trident attack, you can cause it to fly back into your
hand immediately following the attack.
Expose Weakness
15th-level Shape of the Trident feature
Water Trident
32
When you hit a creature with a mana trident attack,
you can locate and mark the target’s weak point,
making it easier for you and your allies to strike it,
until the start of your next turn. When you or an
allied creature hits the marked target with an attack,
the attack deals an extra 1d6 damage of the type dealt
by the attack. A creature can have only one mark from
this feature on it at a time.
You can use this feature a number of times equal
to your Intelligence modifier (a minimum of once).
You regain all of your expended uses when you finish
a long rest. If you have no remaining uses of this
feature, you can expend a spell slot of 3rd level or
higher to use it again.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
Shape of the Twelve-Shooter
Your Signature Sculpt is a pair of revolver pistols
that allow you to show off your marksmanship
and gunplay in combat. Though sculptors with this
signature tend to be showboats who love proving
their skills through duels and dares, their blazing
speed and formidable stopping power mean these
dual-wielding gunfighters can meet each challenge
with flourish and panache.
Inspired by the six shooter weapon introduced from
The Ultimate Adventurer’s Handbook
Blackpowder Pair
1st-level Shape of the Twelve-Shooter feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a pair of mana pistols, one
in each hand. Both mana pistols are a light martial
ranged weapon with a short range of 20 feet and a
long range of 60 feet that deals 1d6 piercing damage.
Your mana pistols don’t require ammunition for
you; instead, each ranged attack you make with one
shoots a small, dense pellet of mana that dissipates
immediately following the attack. When a mana
pistol is used to make a ranged attack, it emits a loud
pop audible from as far away as 60 feet.
Unlike normal ranged weapons, you can use
your mana pistols for two-weapon fighting. Your
signature sculpt counts as two separate weapons for
the purpose of two-weapon fighting and any other
effect that requires you to be dual wielding, but it is
considered to be a single weapon for the purpose of
your sculptor spells.
Quick Draw
6th-level Shape of the Twelve-Shooter feature
You can add your proficiency bonus to your
initiative rolls. Additionally, when you use the
reaction granted by your Quick Sculpt feature, you
can make one ranged mana pistol attack as part of
the same reaction.
Bullet Roulette
11th-level Shape of the Twelve-Shooter feature
When you take the Attack action while wielding your
mana pistols, you can cause their revolving magazines
to begin wildly spinning, empowering your shots
at the cost of randomizing the type of damage they
deal. When you do, each time you hit with a ranged
mana pistol attack this turn, the number you roll on
the mana pistol’s damage die determines the attack’s
damage type and grants an additional effect, as
shown on the Bullet Roulette table.

When you use a bonus action granted by a sculptor
class feature or you cast a sculptor spell with a
casting time of 1 bonus action, you can make a
ranged mana pistol attack as part of the same bonus
action. You don’t add your ability modifier to the
damage of this bonus attack, unless that modifier is
negative or you have the Two-Weapon Fighting style.

6th-level Shape of the Twin Blades feature
You move with a grace and agility few can match.
Opportunity attacks against you have disadvantage,
and moving through nonmagical difficult terrain
costs you no extra movement.
Partner Work
11th-level Shape of the Twin Blades feature
You can create two entirely distinct blades whenever
you sculpt your mana swords. When you shape
your mana into your signature sculpt and use your
Palette Swap feature to change its damage type, you
can choose for each mana sword to have a different
damage type.
Additionally, when you take the Attack action on
your turn and make only melee mana sword attacks,
you can make one additional melee mana sword
attack as part of the same action.
Masterful Routine
15th-level Shape of the Twin Blades feature
Shape of the Twin Blades
Your Signature Sculpt is a pair of swords that you
use to whirl through combat with deadly grace and
blistering speed. Sculptors with this signature often
treat a battlefield like a dance floor, slashing through
enemies and parrying their attacks with fluid style.
Partner Pair
1st-level Shape of the Twin Blades feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a pair of mana swords, one
in each hand. Both mana swords use the statistics of a
scimitar. Your signature sculpt counts as two separate
weapons for the purpose of two-weapon fighting and
any other effect that requires you to be dual wielding,
but it is considered to be a single weapon for the
purpose of your sculptor spells.
You can use your action to begin an elegant, furious
dance. For 1 minute, you have advantage on Dexterity
checks and Dexterity saving throws, all ranged attacks
against you have disadvantage, and you gain a special
reaction that you can take once on every creature’s
turn, including your turn. You can use this special
reaction when a creature misses you with an attack
or it fails a grapple or shove attempt against you, and
only to make a melee mana sword attack against that
creature. You can’t use this special reaction on the
same turn that you take your normal reaction. The
dance ends early if you become incapacitated, or if you
choose to end it (no action required).
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a
spell slot of 5th level or higher to use it again.
Blade Dance
1st-level Shape of the Twin Blades feature
When you take the Attack action and make a melee
mana sword attack, you can use a bonus action this
turn to gain a +2 bonus to your AC until the start of
your next turn. The bonus ends early if you are no
longer wielding both mana swords or if you become

Shape of the Umbrella
Your Signature Sculpt is a versatile umbrella with a
surprisingly hard canopy that holds several hidden
surprises, such as a firing mechanism and blade.
Sculptors with this signature tend to favor hiding
in plain sight, eagerly anticipating the shock and
surprise of those around them when secrets are
revealed in spectacular fashion.
Special thanks to Spencer “Spencisms” Jackson for
contributing ideas essential to the creation of this subclass
Poppin’ Parasol
11th-level Shape of the Umbrella feature
Your umbrella gains further properties depending
on whether its canopy is closed or open.
Closed. Your melee and ranged mana umbrella
attacks deal an additional 1d8 damage of its type on
a hit.
Open. Your mana umbrella can now generate its
own magical air currents with which to lift you,
granting you a flying speed equal to your walking
speed while you wield it.
Battle Bumbershoot
1st-level Shape of the Umbrella feature
Choreographed Canopy
15th-level Shape of the Umbrella feature
When you shape your mana into your signature
sculpt, it takes the form of a mana umbrella that
uses the statistics of a light crossbow, though you
ignore its loading property. Your mana umbrella
doesn’t require ammunition for you; instead, each
ranged attack you make with it shoots a bolt of
sculpted magical energy that dissipates immediately
following the attack.
While you wield your mana umbrella, it has
additional statistics depending on whether its
canopy is closed or open. When you shape your
mana into your signature sculpt, you choose
whether it is in the closed or open position, and you
can switch its canopy position as a bonus action
while you hold it.
Closed. Your mana umbrella also has the
statistics of a rapier, allowing you to use it
as both a melee and ranged weapon.
Open. Your mana umbrella also has the
statistics of a shield, granting a shield AC bonus
even while you wield it as a ranged weapon.
You can dynamically switch your umbrella’s canopy
position at a moment’s notice. While wielding your
mana umbrella, at the start of each of your turns you
can close its canopy, and at the end of each of your
turns you can open its canopy (no action required).
Specialized Sunshade
6th-level Shape of the Umbrella feature
Your umbrella gains additional properties
depending on whether its canopy is closed or open.
Closed. When you make a melee or ranged mana
umbrella attack against a creature, if the target has
never before seen or heard you make an attack with
your umbrella, you have advantage on the attack roll,
as you catch your target flat-footed. On a hit, the attack
deals an extra 1d8 damage to the target, and the target
can’t use reactions until the end of your next turn.
Open. When you fall and aren’t incapacitated
while wielding your mana umbrella, your rate
of descent slows to 60 feet per round, you can
move up to 2 feet horizontally for every 1 foot
you descend, and you can land on your feet,
taking no falling damage.

Sculptor
Creating a New Signature Sculpt
The naming convention for sculptor subclasses
is “Shape of the [NOUN].” Each one presents
a powerful mana construct that is core to the
sculptor’s playstyle, including the signature sculpt’s
statistics and all of the abilities and personal
enhancements a sculptor develops to most
effectively wield it. Sculptors gain subclass features
at 1st level, and again at 6th, 11th, and 15th level.
When designing a new Signature Sculpt,
center the abilities around a consistent theme or
playstyle. For example, Shapes of the Axe and the
Trident grant shield proficiency to emphasize their
flexibility in combat scenarios, even though their
later-level features explore that flexibility in entirely
different ways, and Shape of the Needle & Thread
grants the mending cantrip due to the thematic
concept that it is a magical needle and thread that
can sew reality together, which is also shown in
its later features. Defying the logic of reality is not
just acceptable, but encouraged; these are explicitly
objects made from temporarily hardened magical
energy that the sculptor can manipulate at a
moment’s notice.
1st-Level Feature(s)
A Signature Sculpt grants one or two features at 1st
level. One of these features should always describe
the statistics of the signature sculpt itself. Because
signature sculpts are magical implements sculptors
craft for themselves and these features are the
primary way a sculptor can effectively engage in
combat at 1st level, a signature sculpt should have
significant advantages at level 1 over a mundane
martial weapon. It might deal more damage, provide
greater protection, offer additional tactical options, or
compliment a particular fighting style or spell list.
If you are basing your Signature Sculpt on a
nonmagical weapon from the Player’s Handbook,
it will usually remove any negative properties the
mundane item may have for the sculptor, such as
the heavy and loading properties, and removes
the ammunition requirement of a ranged weapon
while the sculptor wields it. Some Signature Sculpts,
such as Shapes of the Twelve-Shooter and the Twin
Blades, take the form of more than one weapon; in
that case, the description for the signature sculpt
stipulates that it counts as two separate weapons for
two-weapon fighting, but only one weapon for the
purpose of the sculptor’s spells. All of this language
is designed to make sure that a character of any size
or lineage can use the signature sculpt fairly and
effectively, and can have a positive interaction with
36
the spells and fighting styles available at later levels
in the class.
Signature Sculpts often also grant a second 1stlevel feature in the form of proficiency with shields,
or possibly a special way the sculptor can use their
signature sculpt. This feature should only be granted
if the statistics feature doesn’t already make the
signature sculpt more powerful than a mundane
weapon.
6th-Level Feature
Signature Sculpts grant one feature at this level,
which is most commonly focused on either defense
or utility in exploration or combat. On very rare
occasions, this feature may augment damage, but
only either in niche scenarios, such as in Shape of
the Umbrella, or in the case that a Signature Sculpt
doesn’t interact well with the Extra Attack feature
all sculptors get at 5th level, like Shape of the Buster.
11th-Level Feature
Signature Sculpts grant one feature at this level,
which is almost always focused on buffing the
sculptor’s average damage output. Some subclasses
do this through directly scaling up a previous
feature’s effectiveness, and others may do it in more
indirect ways, like improving the sculptor’s or their
allies’ chance to hit their attacks. Getting creative
and coming up with something uniquely thematic
for your Signature Sculpt is highly encouraged.
15th-Level Capstone Feature
Each Signature Sculpt grants one final feature at this
level, which is the subclass’s capstone ability. These
generally come in one of three forms, depending on
the Signature Sculpt’s playstyle and needs:
1.
An ability that improves an early-level feature.
This may provide a special interaction with
the Eye for Detail feature all sculptors get at
14th level, especially for any subclass that may
otherwise struggle to use that feature effectively.
For examples, see the Shapes of the Armor, the
Axe, the Bow, the Lance, and the Rifle.
2. A passive ability that often cheats action
economy to benefit the subclass’s playstyle,
especially one that relies on the use of the
player’s bonus action. For examples, see Shapes
of the Buster, the Foil, the Knuckle, the TwelveShooter, and the Umbrella.
3. An extremely useful or powerful ability with
a very limited number of uses per day. For
examples, see Shapes of the Drill, the Hammer,
the Mallet & Chisel, the Scythe, and the Trident.
Sculptor | Chapter 2: Signature Sculpts
Chapter 3:
Magic Items
The magic items are presented in
alphabetical order. A magic item’s
description gives the item’s name,
its category, its rarity, and its magical
properties. Though all of these items are
designed with the sculptor class in mind, a
few can be used by characters of any class.
Crystallized Sculpt
Weapon (any) or armor (any heavy armor or
shield), uncommon (+0), rare (+1), very rare (+2), or
legendary (+3) (requires attunement)
When a sculptor dies, the mana in their last
sculpted piece remains in its final state (unless
they are returned to life and sculpt it anew). Over
time, this mana naturally crystallizes, its structure
becoming stronger and its inherent mana more
potent. Thanks to the individuality and creativity
of the many sculptors who have lived, adventured,
and died throughout history, many different styles
of crystallized sculpts have formed from each of the
various Mana Sources and can be found scattered
throughout the world. Most of these sculpts grant
spells related to their Mana Source, but some may
have been created from the sculptor’s personal mana
and do not. To create one of these magic items for
use in your campaign, the DM can choose templates
for a Crystallized Sculpt and a Crystallized Mana
Source, or roll on the two tables below to randomly
determine them.
Any spell cast from the item has a spell attack
bonus of +7 and a spell save DC of 15, and doesn’t
require material components.
Each template is designed to function similarly
to the Signature Sculpt it is based on, but these
crystallized sculpts are slightly weaker versions.
Though attunement to the item grants some ability to
control the sculpt’s solidified magic, crystallized mana
can’t be fluidly sculpted on the fly, preventing even a
sculptor from using the mana item to the potential of
its original wielder.

Each crystallized sculpt listed below is followed by
the name of a mundane item in parentheses; it uses
that item’s statistics with any listed modifications.
It also grants a bonus to attack and damage rolls
made with it, to spell attack rolls you make while
wielding it, or to your AC while wielding or wearing
it (specified in the sculpt’s description). The bonus
is determined by the item’s rarity, which is in turn
related to how long its mana has been crystallizing:
uncommon (+0) for fewer than 100 years, rare (+1)
for 100 through 500 years, very rare (+2) for 501
through 10,000 years, and legendary (+3) for greater
than 10,000 years.
Armor (any heavy armor). You have a bonus
to your AC while wearing this armor, determined
by its rarity. While you wear it, you can add your
proficiency bonus to any Strength check you make
that doesn’t already include your proficiency bonus.
Axe (battleaxe). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined by
its rarity. Its versatile damage die is 1d12, instead of
1d10.
Bow (longbow). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined
by its rarity. If you are hidden from a creature when
38
Sculptor | Chapter 3: Magic Items
you hit it with a ranged attack using this bow, you
gain a +1 bonus to the attack’s damage roll.
Brush (sickle). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined
by its rarity. The first time during each of your turns
you hit a creature or object with an attack using
the brush, the target is marked with mana until the
start of your next turn. When a creature other than
you hits the marked target with an attack, the attack
deals an extra 1d6 damage of the attack’s type to
the target, and the mark is consumed. A target can’t
have more than one mark on it from this item at a
time.
Buster (special). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined
by its rarity. It is a martial ranged weapon with
a normal range of 15 feet and a long range of 30
feet that deals 1d8 bludgeoning damage. It doesn’t
require ammunition; instead, each ranged attack
you make with it shoots a brilliant ball of mana
that dissipates immediately following the attack. As
a bonus action while wielding the buster, you can
charge it up for 1 minute. When you make a ranged
attack with the buster while it is charged, its charge
is expended and its damage die becomes 1d10 for
this attack.
Chakram (special). You have a bonus to
attack and damage rolls made with this weapon,
determined by its rarity. It is a martial melee
weapon with the thrown (range 20/60) property
that deals 1d8 slashing damage. When you make a
ranged weapon attack with the chakram, it returns
to your hand immediately following the attack.
Dagger (dagger). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined by
its rarity. When you make an attack with this dagger
as part of the Attack action, you can make one
additional attack with it this turn as a bonus action.
You don’t add your ability modifier to the damage of
this extra attack, unless that modifier is negative.
Drill (special). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined by
its rarity. It is a two-handed martial melee weapon
that deals 1d8 piercing damage. When you make
a melee attack using the drill, it gains 1 spin point
immediately following the attack. It can have up to
2 spin points, and it loses all of its spin points if you
end your turn without making an attack with it. If
the drill has 1 or 2 spin points, it deals an extra 1d4
damage on a hit. If it has 2 spin points when you
make an attack with it that targets the last creature
you attacked, you gain a +1 bonus to the attack roll.
Flail ( flail). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined by
its rarity. It has the reach property.
Foil (rapier). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined
by its rarity. While wielding this rapier, you can use
your bonus action to magically issue a challenge
to a creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You
gain a +1 bonus to melee attack rolls with the rapier
against the target. This challenge ends when you
challenge or attack a different creature, when the
target drops to 0 hit points, or when you are no
longer in combat.
Hammer (maul). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined
by its rarity. Once per attack, when you roll a 1 on a
damage die for the hammer, you can replace it with
a 2.
Knuckle (special). When the DM creates this
magic glove, they choose the bludgeoning, piercing,
or slashing damage type. While you wear the glove,
you have a bonus to the attack and damage rolls of
your unarmed strikes, determined by its rarity, and
you can choose to roll a d4 in place of the normal
damage of your unarmed strike. If you do, your
unarmed strike deals damage of the chosen type,
instead of its normal type. If you are attuned to and
wearing two crystallized knuckles, when you make
an unarmed strike as part of the Attack action, you
can use your bonus action this turn to make one
additional unarmed strike.
Lance (lance). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined by
its rarity. Once during each of your turns when you
make an attack using this lance, you can ignore the
disadvantage normally imposed by using a lance to
attack a target within 5 feet of you
Mallet (light hammer). You can use this weapon
as a spellcasting focus, and you have a bonus to spell
attack rolls cast through it determined by its rarity.
The DM chooses one cantrip from a spell list related
to the Mana Source from which the mallet is made.
You can cast the chosen cantrip from the mallet.
Needle (shortsword). You have a bonus to
attack and damage rolls made with this weapon,
determined by its rarity. It has the reach property.
Rifle (special). You have a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this weapon, determined by

OTHER CRYSTALLIZED ITEMS
Not every sculptor in history has passed while their mana
was sculpted into their Signature Sculpt. Their mana could
just as easily have been shaped into a tool kit or object. A
master sculptor could also have intentionally crystallized
such an object they sculpted from mana. If you want to
make a crystallized version of such a tool kit, object, or
simple weapon, you can use the following templates.
Crystallized Object
Wondrous item, uncommon (20), rare (50), very rare (80),
or legendary (100)
Some sculptors leave many legacies behind, some fierce,
some beautiful, and some merely whimsical or perplexing.
As a sculptor’s final work, a crystallized object is nearly
indestructible through nonmagical means, only gaining in
durability as it continues to crystallize over the centuries.
The item’s AC is 20, unless the mundane version of the
item already has an AC of 20 or higher. The object’s hit
points are determined by its rarity, unless its mundane
version would have more hit points. The item is immune
to damage from nonmagical sources.
Crystallized Mana (Requires Attunement). To create one
of these magic items for use in your campaign, the DM
can choose a template for a Crystallized Mana Source,
or roll on the Crystallized Mana Source table above to
randomly determine one. The item gains the benefits
associated with that Crystallized Mana Source Template.
Any spell cast from the item has a spell attack bonus of
+7 and a spell save DC of 15, and doesn’t require material
components.
Crystallized Tool Kit
Tool (any artisan’s tools), uncommon (+0), rare (+1), very
rare (+2), or legendary (+3) (requires attunement)
Some sculptors ended their days while focused on
their craft. To create one of these magic items for use
in your campaign, the DM can choose a template for a
Crystallized Mana Source, or roll on the Crystallized Mana
Source table above to randomly determine one. The item
gains the benefits associated with that Crystallized Mana
Source Template. Any spell cast from the item has a spell
attack bonus of +7 and a spell save DC of 15, and doesn’t
require material components.
You have a bonus to ability checks you make using the
tool kit. The bonus is determined by the tool kit’s rarity. A
full list of artisan’s tools can be found in Chapter 5 of the
Player’s Handbook.

Magic Items
Mana Gauntlets
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement)
These heavy, ornate gloves are made from
rare metals and materials, combined
with loving craftsmanship into an
exacting design perfect for storing and
shaping mana. Any creature can sculpt
the mana contained within the gauntlets
to cast spells. Each individual pair of
gauntlets is infused with the energy of
a particular Mana Source, determining
which spells can be sculpted.
The gauntlets have 3 charges. While
wearing the gauntlets, you can expend 1
charge to cast one of the spells inherent
to the gauntlets without needing
material components. The spell save
DC and spell attack bonus are 15 and
+7, respectively, unless you already have
a spell save DC and attack bonus that
are higher. The gauntlets regain 1d3 expended
charges daily at dawn.
The spells are from the Player’s Handbook,
with some exceptions. If a spell’s name is
followed by an asterisk, the spell is instead from
Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, and if a spell’s
name is followed by a double asterisk, the spell is
instead from Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything.

Mana Gem of Elemental
Imbuement
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement by a sculptor)
This simple gem faintly glows with the power
of one of the following damage types: acid, cold,
fire, lightning, necrotic, or radiant. While you are
wearing or carrying the gem, your signature sculpt
and any weapon created with your Mana Shaper
feature is magical, sheds bright light in a 20-foot
radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet,
and deals an extra 1d6 damage of the gem’s type
whenever you hit a target with it.
Mana Gem of Greater Imbuement
Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement by a
sculptor)
The gem appears to be a simple diamond with subtle
sigils etched into its surface, but it radiates with
power when viewed by a creature under the effects
of the detect magic spell or similar magic. The gem
holds the power of one of the following damage
types: bludgeoning, force, piercing, psychic, slashing,
or thunder. While you are wearing or carrying the
gem, you have resistance to damage of the gem’s
type, and your signature sculpt and any weapon
created with your Mana Shaper feature is magical,
dealing an extra 2d6 damage of the gem’s type
whenever you hit a target with it.
Mana Gem of Hardness
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a
sculptor)
While you are wearing or carrying the gem, each
item created with your Mana Shaper feature has
twice as many hit points.
Mana Gem of Malleability
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a
sculptor)
While you are wearing or carrying the gem, it takes
you half the time to shape your mana into a tool
kit or non-weapon object with your Mana Shaper
feature. This also halves the additional time you
would spend sealing an object’s mana with your
Object Permanence feature.
Sculptor | Chapter 3: Magic Items

Mana Gem of Protection
Mana Gem of Transference
Wondrous item, uncommon (+1), rare (+2), very rare
(+3) (requires attunement by a sculptor)
Wondrous item, legendary (requires attunement by a
sculptor)
While wearing or carrying the gem, you gain a
bonus to your AC while you are within 5 feet of your
signature sculpt or an item created with your Mana
Shaper feature. The bonus is determined by the
gem’s rarity.
The gem is engraved with sigils that allow it to
absorb the power of a magic weapon. Over the
course of 1 hour, you can perform a ritual to transfer
the magical properties of a magic weapon into the
gem, given that it isn’t an artifact and doesn’t have
the sentience property. You must remain within 5
feet of both the gem and the weapon for the duration
of the ritual. Upon completion of the transfer, the
weapon loses each of its magical properties, which
become stored in the gem, and becomes a mundane
weapon of its type.
If you perform the ritual while the gem already
has magical properties stored within it, it releases
the previously stored magical properties. You can
also have the gem release all of its stored magical
properties as an action while holding it. Released
magical properties return to the weapon they came
from; if the original weapon was destroyed, the
magical properties are lost.
While wearing or carrying the gem, your signature
sculpt or a weapon created with your Mana Shaper
feature is magical and gains the magical properties
stored within the gem. You are considered attuned to
the weapon, ignoring the attunement requirements
of the original magic weapon. For example, if a flame
tongue’s magical properties are stored within the
gem, the gem grants the flame tongue’s ability to ignite
when you speak a command word, shedding light and
dealing additional fire damage while it is ignited.
If a magical property grants a bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with the weapon, and you are
attuned to another magic item that would grant
a bonus to attack and damage rolls to this same
weapon, you use the higher of the two bonuses,
not the combination. For example, if the gem has
a stored magical property that gives a +2 bonus to
attack and damage rolls, and you are attuned to and
wearing sculpting gloves +3, you receive a +3 bonus
to attack and damage rolls made with your signature
sculpt, not a +5 bonus.
Mana Gem of Slaying
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement by a sculptor)
While wearing or carrying the gem, when you roll
a 20 on the d20 for an attack roll made with your
signature sculpt or a weapon created with your
Mana Shaper feature, the target takes an additional
7 damage from the attack.
Mana Gem of Sundering
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a
sculptor)
While wearing or carrying the gem, when you hit
a construct or object with an attack made using
your signature sculpt or a weapon created with
your Mana Shaper feature, you deal the maximum
possible damage on the weapon’s damage die,
instead of rolling.
Mana Gem of Wounding
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement by a sculptor)
While wearing or carrying the gem, your signature
sculpt or a weapon created with your Mana Shaper
feature ignores resistance to the damage type it deals.

Sculptor | Chapter 3: Magic Items
Sculpting Gloves
Wondrous item, rare (+1), very rare (+2), or legendary
(+3) (requires attunement by a sculptor)
While wearing the gloves, you gain a bonus to attack
and damage rolls made with your signature sculpt,
as well as to the spell attack rolls and spell save DC
of your sculptor spells. The bonus is determined by
the gloves’ rarity.
Sculpting gloves of different rarities are often
given colloquial names: rare called “journeyman’s
sculpting gloves,” very rare called “adept’s sculpting
gloves,” and legendary called “master’s sculpting
gloves.”
Artifact: Gloves of Master
Sculptor Kelisair
Wondrous item, artifact (requires attunement by a
sculptor)
Kelisair was, simply put, a genius: a master sculptor
whose works still stand unsurpassed in their vision,
craftsmanship, and unparalleled virtuosity. He
began his career working with mundane bronze and
stone, but his brilliance and creativity couldn’t be
contained by those mere physical mediums. Legend
has it that Kelisair began searching ceaselessly for
new materials to work with, eventually turning to
energy itself in the quest for a more perfect medium.
In his search, the master sculptor finally discovered
what are now recognized as Mana Sources: ambient
sources of pure metaphysical energy from which
mana can be drawn - and sculpted.
So skilled was Kelisair that he could interweave
the Mana Sources in his sculptures, creating
beautiful, never-before-seen works of art. It is
thanks to the attempts of others to imitate his
work and emulate his process that the art of mana
sculpting was born. Through a lifetime of discovery,
work, and passion, Kelisair’s gloves became suffused
with a portion of his genius and power, along with
some residual mana from each Mana Source they
touched. Even ages later, the gloves can still imbue
their wearers with these gifts.
Ever since their creation, a great many sculptors
have fought for possession of the gloves, a series
of ever-escalating battles with devastating results.
Lost in the multiverse, the gloves have been missing
for so long now that scholars debate whether they
ever really existed at all - and details such as what
these mythical gauntlets might look like are hotly
contested. Some claim the artifact appears as a
simple pair of leather gloves, their powers well-
hidden, waiting for a talented sculptor worthy
enough to don them; others espouse that the
gloves could only appear as a grand, crystallized
masterpiece, mighty and beautiful, wrought from
mana of every source and sealed in dazzling form.
Despite their history of bloodshed and mystery,
sculptors from all across the planes still seek the lost
gloves, hoping to use Kelisair’s mythical powers to
enhance their own artworks.
Mana Imbued. While wearing the gloves, you gain
a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with
your signature sculpt and any weapon created with
your Mana Shaper feature, as well as to the spell
attack rolls and spell save DC of your sculptor spells.
Random Properties. The gloves have the following
randomly determined properties (using the tables at
the beginning of the “Artifacts” section in chapter 7
of the Dungeon Master’s Guide):
• 2 minor beneficial properties
• 1 major beneficial property
• 1 minor detrimental property
Mana Mastery. While wearing the gloves, you
can use your action to change your Signature
Sculpt, swapping all of the features granted by your
previous Signature Sculpt for those of your new one.
Additionally, you can use Strength or Dexterity,
your choice, for attack and damage rolls made with
your signature sculpt and any weapon created with
your Mana Shaper feature.
Source Knowledge. When you attune to the
gloves, the number of sculptor spells you know
increases to 20, and you can choose your sculptor
spells from any of the Mana Source spell lists. When
you finish a long rest, you can spend some time in
quiet contemplation or in the planning or creation
of art to change your list of known spells: 1 minute
per level for each spell you know.
Destroying the Gloves. The only way to destroy
the gloves is to engulf them in a nexus of power
at the center of the multiverse, the place of power
where all Mana Sources interweave. The gloves
must remain at the center of the nexus for 100 years
before the sealed, crystallized mana within them
dissolves into its natural free state, leaving nothing
more behind than the mundane sculptor’s gloves
they were when Kelisair first began using them.

Critical Eye (Master only). The sculptor’s attacks against creatures within
60 feet of it score a critical hit on a roll of 18-20 on the d20.
Stainless Steel (Adept and Master only). When the sculptor changes the

when determining the extra damage for a critical hit it scores with this
action.
Shape of the Bow
The sculptor’s Signature Sculpt is a supple bow as
tall as it is. The sculptor gains the following traits:
Brawl Shooting. When the sculptor makes a ranged weapon attack
against a target within 20 feet of it, being within 5 feet of a hostile
creature doesn’t impose disadvantage on the attack roll, and the attack
ignores half cover.

ignores any disadvantage to Dexterity (Stealth) checks caused by its
armor, and can take the Disengage or Hide action as a bonus action on

when it misses with a signature sculpt attack, it can add its Intelligence
modifier to the roll, potentially causing it to hit.

the sculptor has all of that Mana Source’s spells prepared, as well.
Mana Recovery (Recharge after a Long Rest; Master only). When the
sculptor finishes a short rest, it can choose to recover up to six levels
worth of expended spell slots. This can be a 5th-level and a 1st-level

and so on.
The sculptor also gains the following action:
Signature Sculpt. Melee Weapon Attack: Dexterity modifier + proficiency
bonus to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 2 (1d4) + Dexterity modifier
piercing damage, and the sculptor marks the target until the start of

Spell Descriptions
The spells are presented in alphabetical order. Each
spell was written and designed by Ross Leiser of
Outlandish Adventure Productions, unless it is
followed by the “TIP” superscript, in which case it
was written and designed by Taron “Indestructoboy”
Pounds and used with permission.
Altruistic Sacrifice
1st-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (a ritual dagger, which you
plunge into your own heart)
Duration: Instantaneous
You touch a creature that has died within the last
minute and transfer your own life force into it. You
immediately die, and that creature returns to life
with a number of hit points equal to the hit points
you had when you cast this spell. This spell can’t
return a creature to life that has died of old age, nor
can it restore any missing body parts.
At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 5th through 8th level, you can choose to
drop to 0 hit points and begin making death saving
throws instead of immediately dying. If you cast
this spell using a 9th level spell slot, the spell’s range
changes to 30 feet, and you can target any number of
creatures you can see within range.
Apathy Infusion
5th-level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You infuse your next attack with a curse that creates
oppressive apathy in its victim. The next time you
hit a creature with an attack during this spell’s
duration, your attack deals an extra 5d6 psychic
damage, and the target must succeed on a Charisma
saving throw or become cursed for the duration of
the spell. The cursed target can’t willingly speak
or use its movement, and it can’t take actions or
reactions. At the end of each of its turns, the target
can repeat the Charisma saving throw, ending the
spell on a successful save.
A creature immune to being charmed
automatically succeeds on its saving throw against
this spell.
A remove curse spell ends this effect.
Sculptor | Appendix: Additional Spell Lists & Descriptions

Appendix
Arcane Redirection
5th-level abjuration
Billowing Strike
2nd-level conjuration
Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when see
a creature within 60 feet of you casting a spell that
includes you as a target
Range: 60 feet
Components: S
Duration: Instantaneous
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: V
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
As you feel the arcane energies of a spell about to
hit you, you attempt to steal the spell and redirect it
at different targets. If the creature is casting a spell
of 3rd level or lower, you choose new targets for the
spell as though it were cast from your position. The
stolen spell uses your spell save DC and spell attack
modifier, as though you had cast it.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of a level higher than 5th, you can steal a
spell this way of levels higher than 3rd: you can steal a
spell of up to 4th level when you cast this spell using a
6th-level spell slot, a spell of up to 5th level when you
cast this spell using a 7th-level spell slot, a spell of up
to 6th level when you cast this spell using an 8th-level
spell slot, and a spell of up to 7th level when you cast
this spell using a 9th-level spell slot.
Bestow Malediction
5th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (a shard of a mirror you
broke)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You touch a creature. That creature must succeed
on a Wisdom saving throw or become cursed for the
duration of the spell. When you cast the spell, choose
the nature of the curse from the following options:
• While cursed, the target has disadvantage on
saving throws.
• While cursed, the target has disadvantage on
ability checks and attack rolls.
• While cursed, all attacks and spells deal an
additional 1d8 necrotic damage to the target.
If remove curse is cast on the target, the creature
that cast remove curse must make an ability check
using its spellcasting ability against your spell save
DC. If it succeeds, the spell ends. Otherwise, the
remove curse fails to end the spell’s curse.
At the DM’s option, you may choose an alternative
curse effect, but it should be no more powerful than
those described above. The DM has final say on such a
curse’s effect.
66
The next time you hit a creature with a weapon
attack before this spell ends, the target takes an
extra 2d8 bludgeoning damage as a powerful gust
slams into it. It must succeed on a Strength saving
throw or be pushed 15 feet straight away from you
and be knocked prone. A Large or larger creature has
advantage on this saving throw.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, for each slot
level above 2nd, the damage increases by 1d8 (to a
maximum of 5d8) and a target that fails the save is
pushed 5 feet further away from you (to a maximum
of 30 feet).
Bloodlust Infusion
3rd-level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You infuse your next attack with a curse that
creates ravenous bloodlust in its victim. The next
time you hit a creature with an attack during this
spell’s duration, your attack deals an extra 3d6
psychic damage, and the target must succeed on
a Wisdom saving throw or become cursed for the
duration of the spell. The cursed target must use
its action before moving on each of its turns to take
the Attack action. One of its attacks must be made
against a creature it usually regards as its ally if
such a creature is within range. At the end of each of
its turns, the target can repeat the Wisdom saving
throw, ending the spell on a successful save.
A creature immune to being charmed
automatically succeeds on its saving throw against
this spell.
A remove curse spell ends this effect.
Bolstering Apparitions
3rd-level necromancy (ritual)
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (a shamanic focus)
Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes
You call three magnanimous spirits from beyond the
veil and direct them to protect up to three creatures
Sculptor | Appendix: Additional Spell Lists & Descriptions
you can see within range. The spirits are invisible
to most creatures other than you, though a creature
with truesight or that can see into the Ethereal
Plane sees them floating protectively around the
targets. For the duration, each target gains 1d10
temporary hit points at the start of each of its turns
and has a +1 bonus to saving throws. When the spell
ends, the targets lose any remaining temporary hit
points from this spell.
If a target is reduced to 0 hit points, the spirit
protecting that creature returns to the spirit world,
and the spell effect on that target ends. The spell
ends early if you cast another spell that calls one or
more spirits from beyond the veil, or immediately
after the last spirit has returned to the spirit world.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 4th level or higher, you call an additional
spirit to protect up to one additional creature you
can see within range for each slot level above 3rd.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th
level or higher, the number of temporary hit points
increases by 1d10 and the bonus to saving throws
increases by +1 for every three slot levels above 3rd.
Breaching Apparition
5th-level necromancy (ritual)
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (a shamanic focus)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
You call a willful spirit from beyond the veil to grant a
creature you can see within range the ability to strike
through the Border Ethereal. The spirit is invisible
to most creatures other than you, though a creature
with truesight or that can see into the Ethereal Plane
sees the spirit partially phased inside the target. For
the duration, the target’s weapon attacks are magical,
and its attacks and spells are able to affect creatures
within the Border Ethereal. The target can choose
for its attacks and spells to pass harmlessly through
most material objects, ignoring cover granted by
nonmagical objects and barriers unless they are
tangible within the Border Ethereal.
The spell ends early if you cast another spell that
calls one or more spirits from beyond the veil.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell
using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, you call
one additional spirit and can target one additional
creature you can see within range for every two slot
levels above 5th.
Call Spirit
4th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 minute
Range: 10 feet
Components: V, S, M (the corpse of a humanoid
that died no more than 1 hour ago)
Duration: Instantaneous
For the full casting time of the spell, you must remain
within 10 feet of the corpse used as the material
component. The spell, using the corpse as a focus,
reaches into the beyond and drags the creature’s spirit
back into the realm of the living, creating a shadow.
Once you create an undead with this spell, the corpse
can’t be used as a material component for this spell
again. An undead created with this spell has double
the hit points listed in its stat block, and retains the
personality of the creature used to create it. Though it
may or may not be friendly toward you depending on
how it interacted with you prior to its death, it treats you
as though you are its ally while you are in control of it.
On each of your turns, you can mentally command
the undead created with this spell if it is within 60
feet of you (no action required by you). If the undead
created with this spell created its own undead, you
can command any or all of those creatures at the same
time, issuing the command to each one. You decide
what action the creature will take and where it will
move during its next turn, or you can issue a general
command, such as to guard a particular chamber or
corridor. If you issue no commands, the creature only
defends itself against hostile creatures. Once given an
order, the creature continues to follow it until its task
is complete.
The creature is under your control for 24 hours, after
which it stops obeying any command you’ve given it
and becomes hostile to you and your companions. To
maintain control of the creature for another 24 hours,
you must cast this spell on the creature again before
the current 24-hour period ends. This use of the spell
reasserts your control over the creature, rather than
animating a new one. If the undead created with this
feature created its own undead, those undead are
destroyed at the end of the 24-hour period, whether
you reasserted control over the original or not.
If you cast the spell to create a new undead, any
previous undead you’ve created with the spell is
destroyed.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
5th-level or higher spell slot, you can create or reassert
control over an indentured spirit (Guildmaster’s Guide
to Ravnica) or specter. When you cast this spell using a
6th-level or higher spell slot, you can create or reassert
Sculptor | Appendix: Additional Spell Lists & Descriptions
67
Appendix
control over a poltergeist or will-o’-wisp. When you
cast this spell using a 7th-level or higher spell slot,
you can create or reassert control over a sword wraith
warrior (Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes). When you
cast this spell using an 8th-level or higher spell slot,
you can create or reassert control over a banshee or
ghost. When you cast this spell using a 9th-level spell
slot, you can create or reassert control over an allip
(Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes) or wraith.
Clumsiness Infusion
1st-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You infuse your next attack with a curse that
imposes an awkward clumsiness in its victim. The
next time you hit a creature with an attack during
this spell’s duration, your attack deals an extra 1d6
force damage, and the target must succeed on a
Constitution saving throw or become cursed for
the duration of the spell. Whenever the cursed
target makes an attack roll or ability check using
Strength or Dexterity, it must roll a d4 and subtract
the number rolled from the result. As an action, the
target can repeat the Constitution saving throw,
ending the spell on a successful save.
A creature immune to being paralyzed automatically
succeeds on its saving throw against this spell.
A remove curse spell ends this effect.
Corrode Metal
2nd-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M (a vial of stomach acid)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
Choose a manufactured metal object such as a metal
stove, a metal weapon, or a suit of heavy or medium
metal armor that you can see within range. You
cause the object to begin to rust and corrode. For the
duration, the object is vulnerable to bludgeoning,
piercing, and slashing damage. The spell has
additional effects if the target was a metal weapon, a
metal set of armor, or a metal shield.
Armor or Shield. The armor or shield receives a
-1 penalty to the AC it offers. Nonmagical armor
reduced to an AC of 10 or a nonmagical shield that
drops to a +0 bonus is destroyed.
Weapon. The weapon receives a -1 penalty to its
attack and damage rolls.
68
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, and the target is
a metal weapon, a metal set of armor, or a metal
shield, the penalty increases by -1 for each slot level
above 2nd. If a nonmagical weapon’s penalty would
be lower than -3, the weapon is destroyed instead.
Create Bog
3rd-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 120 feet
Components: V, S, M (a gob of mud and moss)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
The ground and any nonmagical liquid within a
20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point you choose
within range becomes an acidic swamp. Spaces on the
ground or within liquid in the area count as difficult
terrain for creatures other than you. Whenever a
creature enters the area for the first time on a turn
or starts its turn there, it must make a Constitution
saving throw. The creature takes 2d6 acid damage on
a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.
At Higher Levels. When you cast the spell using
a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the radius of the
sphere increases by 10 feet for each slot level above
3rd. Additionally, the damage of the spell increases
by 1d6 for every two slot levels above 3rd.
Curse Shock
1st-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 minute
You launch a spark of crackling curse magicks at a
creature you can see within range. Make a ranged
spell attack against the target, cursing the target for
the duration of the spell on a hit. The cursed target
subtracts your spellcasting ability modifier from
the next ability check, attack roll, or saving throw it
makes before the spell ends. After the target makes
one of these rolls, the spell ends.
A remove curse spell ends this effect.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, for each slot level
above 1st, the cursed target subtracts your spellcasting
ability modifier from an additional roll before the spell
ends. For example, if you cast this spell using a 3rdlevel spell slot, the creature subtracts your spellcasting
ability modifier from each attack roll, ability check,
and saving throw it makes within the next minute, or
until it makes any combination of three of those rolls,
whichever comes first.
Sculptor | Appendix: Additional Spell Lists & Descriptions
Curse Ward
4th-level abjuration (ritual)
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 hour
You touch a creature and grant it a measure of
protection against curses and other corrupting
influences. The target has advantage on saving throws
against magical effects that would curse or possess it,
or cause it to become charmed or frightened.
The first time the target would become charmed,
frightened, possessed, or subject to a curse, the effect
is instead negated for the target, and this spell ends.
If the negated effect was the result of the target’s
attunement to a cursed item, the spell breaks
the target’s attunement to the object so it can be
removed or discarded.
The spell ends early if you cast it again.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 6th or 7th level, the duration increases
to 8 hours. When you use a spell slot of 8th or 9th
level, the duration increases to 24 hours.
Cyclone Strike
1st-level conjuration
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: V
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
The next time you hit a creature with a melee
weapon attack before the spell ends, the spell creates
a small vortex around the target. In addition to the
normal effects of the attack, the target and each
creature other than you within 5 feet of the target
must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 1d10
slashing damage on a failed save, or half as much
damage on a successful one.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage
increases by 1d10 for each slot level above 1st (to a
maximum of 6d10).
Dazzling Pop
1st-level illusion
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M (a firecracker)
Duration: Instantaneous
You create a burst of noise and shimmering lights in
the space of a creature you can see within range. The
target must make a Constitution saving throw. On a
failed save, the target takes 1d4 radiant damage and
1d4 thunder damage and is blinded and deafened
until the start of your next turn, or takes half as
much damage and isn’t blinded or deafened on a
successful save.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 2nd level or higher, both the radiant and
the thunder damage increases by 1d4 for each slot
level above 1st.
Death Burst
4th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self (20-foot radius)
Components: V
Duration: Instantaneous
You gather necromantic energies around yourself
and release them in a burst that ripples outward
from you. Each creature of your choice within 20
feet of you must make a Constitution saving throw,
taking 5d8 necrotic damage on a failed save or half
as much on a successful one. A creature reduced to 0
hit points by this damage dies.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 5th level or higher, for each slot level
above 4th, the damage increases by 1d8 and the
radius increases by 5 feet.
Detect Past
3rd-level divination (ritual)

Range: Self
Components: V, S, M (a pocket watch or other
timekeeping device that can be wound backward)
Duration: Instantaneous
When you cast this spell, you must specify a type
of event, such as a murder, a clandestine meeting, a
battle, a celebration, or a tragedy, though you are not
limited to only these options. You detect any such
event that has happened in the past 1 hour within
30 feet of you. You can choose up to one event you
detected and view it in its entirety as though you bore
witness to it when it happened. The duration of the
event and what you see are determined by the DM.
At High Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can detect events
that have happened further in the past, depending
on the slot level: in the past 8 hours with a 4th-level
slot, in the past 24 hours with a 5th, in the past 7
days with a 6th, in the past 30 days with a 7th, in the
past year with an 8th, and in the past 100 years with

Dispelling Smite
3rd-level abjuration
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: V
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
The next time you hit a creature with a melee
weapon attack before this spell ends, your weapon
is surrounded by a shimmering aura of antimagic,
and the attack deals an extra 3d8 force damage to the
target. Additionally, if the target is concentrating on
a spell of 3rd level or lower, the creature’s spell ends.
If it is concentrating on a spell of a higher level, it
has disadvantage on the Constitution saving throw
it makes to maintain concentration on the spell
caused by taking damage from the attack. Either
way, this spell then ends.
Dispel Caster
5th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (a chunk of cold iron worth at
least 50 gp, which the spell consumes)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You flood curse magicks into a creature you can see
within range, attempting to disrupt its connection to
the Weave. The target must make a spellcasting ability
check against your spell save DC; a creature without
a spellcasting ability makes a Constitution check.
On a failure, the target becomes subject to this curse
until the spell ends, becoming unable to cast spells
or use the properties of magic items. Additionally,
any magic item that the target is wearing, holding, or
carrying loses all of its magic properties and becomes
a mundane item of its type until the spell ends.
At the end of each of its turns, the target can
repeat the ability check against your spell save DC,
ending the spell on itself on a success.
A remove curse spell cast on the target doesn’t
immediately end this spell on it. Instead, the
creature who cast the remove curse must make a
spellcasting ability check against your spell save DC.
On a success, the spell ends on the target.
Duel of Destiny
4th-level abjuration
of your choice you can see within range, locking you
into a sacred duel. Until the spell ends, both you
and the target shed bright light in a 10-foot radius
and dim light for an additional 10 feet. You and the
target are immune to the damage, spells, and other
effects of creatures outside the duel, and creatures
outside the duel are immune to the damage, spells,
and other effects belonging to you or the target. You
and the target are also incapable of moving farther
than 60 feet apart.
For the duration, you gain 5 temporary hit points
at the start of each of your turns, and when you hit
the target with a melee weapon attack, the attack
deals an additional 1d4 radiant damage.
The spell ends early if you end one of your
subsequent turns without attacking the target or
forcing it to make a saving throw, or if either you
or the target drops to 0 hit points. You lose all
remaining temporary hit points from this spell
when the spell ends.
Dusk
5th-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M (a black gemstone worth at
least 100 gp)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
The light dims in a location you specify within
range, shadows consuming the light. Until the
spell ends, a 30-foot-radius, 40-foot-high cylinder
dulls the light within it. Within the cylinder, areas
of normally bright light become dim light, areas of
normally dim light become darkness, and areas of
normally darkness become magical darkness.
When the cylinder appears, each undead creature
within the cylinder gains 1d12 temporary hit points
and each non-undead creature within the cylinder
takes 1d12 necrotic damage. While a non-undead
creature is in the cylinder, it takes an additional 1d12
necrotic damage the first time it takes damage each
turn. Undead creatures who end their turn in the
cylinder gain 1d12 temporary hit points.
If you’re within 60 feet of the cylinder, you can
move it up to 60 feet as a bonus action on your turn.
If the spell’s area ever overlaps with the area of a
dawn XGtE spell, both spells immediately end.

Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (a handful of coins worth at
least 1 sp)
Duration: Instantaneous
You create a spike of energy from one of the
elemental planes and send it careening at a target
you can see within range. You choose Air, Earth,
Fire, or Water as the plane from which you draw the
energy, and then make a ranged spell attack against
the target. If the attack hits, it has varying effects
based on the plane you chose.
Air. The target takes 4d8 thunder damage and is
pushed 10 feet away from you. Whether the attack
hits or misses, the spell emits a thunderous boom
audible out to 300 feet.
Earth. The target takes 4d8 force damage and is
knocked prone.
Fire. The target takes 4d8 fire damage, or half as
much if you missed with the attack.
Water. The target takes 4d8 cold damage, and its
speed is halved until the start of your next turn.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases
by 1d8 for each slot level above 2nd. Alternatively,
when you cast this spell using spell slots of certain
levels, you can choose multiple elemental planes,
dealing the damage and imposing the effects of each
chosen plane, instead of increasing the spell’s damage
by 1d8 for each slot level above 2nd. If you cast this
spell using a spell slot of 5th or 6th level, you can
choose two planes; if you cast this spell using a 7th- or
8th-level spell slot, you can choose three planes; and
if you cast this spell using a 9th-level spell slot, the
spell gains the effects of all four planes.
Enervating Grasp
Necromancy cantrip
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous
You attempt to grasp a creature and temporarily
drain it of its vigor. Make a melee spell attack against
the target. On a hit, the target takes 1d6 necrotic
damage, and it has disadvantage on the first ability
check or attack roll it makes before the end of its next
turn. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
This spell’s damage increases by 1d6 when you reach
5th level (2d6), 11th level (3d6), and 17th level (4d6).
You close your hand around the coins, magically
converting them to another form of currency of your
choice that you’ve seen of equal value. If you convert
one or more coins into a denomination of lesser value,
such as converting 1 gp into 10 sp, the spell creates the
new coins, to a maximum of 10 created coins.
Flaming Vortex
5th-level evocation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You create a swirling vortex of flame around yourself,
which is powerful enough to take you aloft. For the
duration, your base movement speed increases by
30 feet. You are able to move vertically, in addition to
horizontally, on your turn, but not to a height greater
than 60 feet above the ground.
While you are aloft, the vortex travels with you,
creating a 5-foot radius cylinder with height equal to
your current distance from the ground. As you move,
each creature your vortex passes within 5 feet of must
make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a
creature takes 3d8 fire damage, or half as much on a
successful save. A creature other than you that starts its
turn within 5 feet of the cylinder, or passes within 5 feet
of it for the first time during a turn, must also make this
saving throw, taking damage as described above.
If a creature has taken damage from this spell
since the start of your last turn, it can’t take damage
from the spell again until the start of your next turn.
At Higher Levels. When you cast the spell using a
spell slot of 6th level or higher, the damage increases
by 1d8 for each slot level above 5th.
Gilded Touch TIP

which the spell consumes)
Duration: 1 minute
You coat an object with a thin leaf of metal the same
Sculptor | Appendix: Additional Spell Lists & Descriptions
71
Appendix
type as the coins used for the material component.
The leaf can coat a weapon, a shield, 10 pieces of
ammunition, or any object that fits in your hand. For
the duration, the spell confers the coated object with
an additional property that depends on the metal
used.
When the spell ends, the coating dissipates off the
object and the coins magically reappear in your hand.
Some typical metals and their effects follow. You
might discover another type of metal during your
adventures, in which case the DM determines what
properties the metal confers.
Copper. Whenever the creature holding or wearing
the coated object would take lightning damage, it
takes an additional 1d10 lightning damage from
the effect.
Silver. The coated object can be used as a silvered
weapon (see Chapter 5 of the Player’s Handbook).
Gold. If the coated object is also the target of
another spell, any weapon attack using it deals an
additional 1d4 damage of the object’s type on a hit.
Platinum. The coated object’s weight doubles, and
gains the heavy property if it is a shield or is used
as a weapon.
Cold Iron. If the coated object is used to make an
attack against a Fey, the roll on the d20 required
for the attack to score a critical hit is reduced by 1.
For most creatures, this allows the attack to score a
critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.
Adamantine. The coated object can be used as an
adamantine weapon (see Chapter 2 of Xanathar’s
Guide to Everything). If the coated object is a
shield or a piece from a suit of armor, it gains the
properties of adamantine armor.
Expending a Spell Slot. When you cast this
cantrip, you can expend a spell slot to increase its
duration by 1 hour per slot level.
Gold Dust TIP
2nd-level evocation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: S, M (20 gold pieces)
Duration: 1 minute
You toss the coins used as the material component,
creating a cloud of flying gold coins in a 10-foot radius
sphere centered on a point within range. A creature
that enters the spell’s area for the first time on a turn or
that starts its turn there must succeed on a Dexterity
saving throw or take 2d10 bludgeoning damage. A
creature takes half damage on a successful save.
As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the
72
cloud up to 20 feet.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases
by 1d10 for each slot level above 2nd.
Guiding Apparition
1st-level necromancy (ritual)
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (a shamanic focus)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You call a friendly spirit from beyond the veil to
guide a creature that you can see within range. The
spirit is invisible to most creatures other than you,
though a creature with truesight or that can see into
the Ethereal Plane sees the spirit floating around
the target, subtly guiding its movements. Until the
spell ends, the target deals an extra 1d4 force damage
the first time each turn that it hits with an attack.
Also, choose one ability when you cast the spell. The
target gains a +1 bonus to ability checks and attack
rolls made with the chosen ability.
As a bonus action each round for the duration, you
can have the spirit move and provide guidance to a
different target creature you can see within 30 feet
of you.
The spell ends early if you cast another spell that
calls one or more spirits from beyond the veil.
At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 2nd level or 3rd level, the duration is
concentration, up to 10 minutes. If you use a spell
slot of 4th or 5th level, the duration is concentration,
up to 1 hour. If you use a spell slot of 6th or 7th level,
the duration is 8 hours. If you use a spell slot of 8th
or 9th level, the duration is 24 hours. Using a spell
slot of 6th level or higher grants a duration that
doesn’t require concentration, though the spell still
ends early if you cast it again.
Guiding Weapon
3rd-level divination
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
You imbue a weapon you touch with the ability to
guide itself toward weak spots in a target’s defenses.
Until the spell ends, weapon attacks made with
it deal an extra 1d4 damage on a hit, and once per
turn when a weapon attack made with it misses, the
attacker can choose to add your spellcasting ability
modifier to the attack roll, potentially changing the
Sculptor | Appendix: Additional Spell Lists & Descriptions
result to a hit. If the weapon isn’t already a magic
weapon, it becomes one for the duration.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 5th or 6th level, the weapon gains a +1
bonus to attack rolls and the extra damage increases
to 2d4. When you use a spell slot of 7th or 8th level,
the weapon gains a +2 bonus to attack rolls and the
extra damage increases to 3d4. When you use a 9th
level spell slot, the weapon gains a bonus to attack
rolls equal to your spellcasting ability modifier
and its extra damage increases to 3d4. If the target
weapon is already magical when you cast this spell
using a spell slot that would grant a bonus to attack
rolls, you use your choice of either the weapon’s
bonus or this spell’s, not the combination.
Harrowing Apparition
4th-level necromancy (ritual)
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (a shamanic focus)
Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes
You call a ghastly spirit from beyond the veil into the
space of target creature you can see within range,
poised to strike terror into the hearts of the target’s
enemies. The spirit remains with the target as it
moves, and is visible only to the target’s enemies,
though a creature with truesight or that can see into
the Ethereal Plane sees the spirit floating around the
target and menacing its foes. Until the spell ends,
any creature that can see the spirit and that isn’t
immune to being frightened has disadvantage on
attack rolls against the target. Whenever the target
hits with an attack against a creature within 30 feet
of it that can see the spirit and is immune to being
frightened, the spirit lashes out, causing the attack
to deal an additional 1d6 force damage.
If the target drops to 0 hit points before this
spell ends, you can use a bonus action to choose a
new target for the spirit. The new target must be a
creature within 30 feet of you that you can see, and
it must not have been the previous target’s enemy.
The spell ends early if you cast another spell that
calls one or more spirits from beyond the veil.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using
a spell slot of 6th or 7th level, you can maintain your
concentration on the spell for up to 1 hour. When
you use a spell slot of 8th level, you can maintain
your concentration on the spell for up to 8 hours.
When you use a spell slot of 9th level, the spell lasts
for 8 hours without requiring concentration, though
the spell still ends early if you cast it again.
Hatred Infusion
1st-level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You infuse your next attack with a curse that creates
a powerful hatred for you in its victim. The next time
you hit a creature with an attack during this spell’s
duration, your attack deals an extra 1d6 psychic
damage, and the target must succeed on a Wisdom
saving throw or become cursed for the duration of
the spell. The cursed target has disadvantage on any
attack roll it makes against a target other than you.
As an action, the target can repeat the Wisdom saving
throw, ending the spell on a successful save.
A creature immune to being charmed
automatically succeeds on its saving throw against
this spell.
A remove curse spell ends this effect.

you, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or
become frightened of you until the spell ends. On a
miss, the target takes half damage and isn’t frightened.

being knocked prone or moved against its will.

imbued with the power of all-consuming flame.
Weapon attacks made with the weapon deal an extra
1d8 fire damage on a hit. The first time each turn

throw, taking 2d8 fire damage on a failed save or half
as much on a successful one. The explosion ignites
each flammable object in the area that isn’t being
worn or carried. A creature holding the weapon has
resistance against cold damage and fire damage.
Water. The weapon and the creature wielding it
are imbued with the strength and ruthlessness of the
sea. Weapon attacks made with the weapon deal an
extra 2d8 bludgeoning damage on a hit. The first time
each turn that a target is hit with an attack using the
weapon, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw
or be pushed 10 feet straight away from the attacker
and be knocked prone. A creature holding the weapon

speed of 40 feet, and ignores any disadvantage on
attacks it would suffer for using the weapon in water
or for attacking a target under water.

Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You begin telling a tale of bravery and heroism,
radiating an aura of courage in a 30-foot radius
around you. Within the aura, an ephemeral vignette
appears of heroes bravely battling monsters. Until
the spell ends, the aura moves with you, centered on
you. Each nonhostile creature in the aura (including
you) is immune to being frightened and gains a +1
bonus to saving throws.
If a creature can’t hear you or see the vignette, it
gains no benefit from this spell. If you speak other
than to tell the tale, the spell ends.
Tale of Hope & Woe
5th-level illusion
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self (30-foot radius)
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You begin reciting a tale designed to inspire either
hope or woe (your choice when you cast the spell)
in the hearts of those who hear it, creating a
30-foot-radius aura around you. Within the aura, an
ephemeral vignette appears displaying the tale. Until
the spell ends, the aura moves with you, centered on
you. If a creature can’t hear you or see the vignette, it
is unaffected by the spell. If you speak other than to
tell the tale, the spell ends.
Tale of Hope. Each friendly creature within
the aura (including you) has advantage on
Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma saving
throws, and when such a creature makes an attack,
the attack deals an extra 1d6 damage.
Tale of Woe. Each hostile creature in the aura
has disadvantage on Intelligence, Wisdom,
and Charisma saving throws, and when such a
creature makes an attack, the attack deals 1d6 less
damage (this can’t reduce the damage below 1). A
creature is immune to this effect if it is immune to
being charmed or frightened.
Until the spell ends, you can use a bonus action on
each of your subsequent turns to change the moral
of your tale with a plot twist, changing your Tale of
Hope into a Tale of Woe, or vice versa.

damage on a failed save or ending the spell for itself
on a successful one.

Components: V
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

attack before this spell ends, booming thunder
audible to a range of 300 feet emanates from the
point of impact. The target and each creature other
than you within 10 feet of the target must make a
Constitution saving throw. A creature takes 4d8

Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (a vial of vampire blood,
which you pour over the weapon)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
You imbue a weapon you touch with a thirst for
blood. Until the spell ends, the weapon gains a +1
bonus to attack rolls and deals an extra 1d6 necrotic
damage on a hit. If the target of an attack made with
the weapon attack isn’t an undead or construct, the
weapon’s wielder regains a number of hit points
equal to the necrotic damage dealt.
If the weapon isn’t already a magic weapon, it
becomes one for the duration. If it is already magical
when you cast this spell, and part of its magical
properties is granting a bonus to attack rolls, you
use your choice of either the weapon’s bonus or this
spell’s, not the combination.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 6th or 7th level, the bonus to attack rolls
increases to +2 and the extra damage increases to
2d6. When you use a spell slot of 8th level or higher,
the bonus to attack rolls increases to +3 and the
extra damage increases to 3d6.

damage. You lose all remaining temporary hit points
from this spell when this spell ends.

in a 15-foot cube originating from you must make
a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a

speed isn’t reduced.

War Story
4th-level illusion
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You begin a booming retelling of a large-scale battle
filled with death and destruction, an ephemeral
vignette of the tale appearing around you. You
initiate the tale with the crunch of armies clashing,
creating a shockwave audible to 300 feet that strikes
at a creature you can see within 30 feet of you.
Make a ranged spell attack against the target. The
target being within 5 feet of you doesn’t impose
disadvantage on the attack roll. On a hit, the target
takes 3d10 thunder damage. On a miss, the target
takes half the damage.
Until the spell ends, you can use an action on
each of your subsequent turns to have your vignette
reenact the clanging of swords, ferocious battlecries,
or screams of the dying, repeating the attack against
a creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You can
direct the attack at the same target or a different one.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases
by 1d10 for every two slot levels above 4th.
