The Symbolic Language of Runes: Understanding the Magic in D&D 5e

By admin

The Rune Shaper is a subclass available to the Druid class in the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons. This subclass focuses on the use of ancient symbols and runes to imbue their spells and abilities with additional power. The Rune Shaper gains the ability to inscribe magical runes onto different surfaces, allowing them to control the battlefield and manipulate the forces of nature. These runes can be inscribed on the ground, on objects, or even on allies and enemies, granting various effects based on the chosen rune. This subclass provides a unique approach to spellcasting for Druids, as they can infuse their spells with extra potency. This allows them to augment the effects of their spells or even change the spells' type altogether.

These D&D 5E Free Basic Rules only contain a fraction of the races, subclasses, backgrounds, feats, items, monsters, spells, and other content available on Roll20. Check out the Player's Handbook to add dozens of more player options to the Charactermancer, the Dungeon Master's Guide to expand on the tools available for DMs, and the Monster Manual to add hundreds of more unique creatures (including token artwork) to fight!

This allows them to augment the effects of their spells or even change the spells' type altogether. For example, a Rune Shaper can turn a Fireball spell into an Iceball spell by inscribing the appropriate rune. Furthermore, the Rune Shaper gains access to a unique set of abilities called Rune Secrets.

Beyond 1st Level

As your character goes on adventures and overcomes challenges, he or she gains experience, represented by experience points. A character who reaches a specified experience point total advances in capability. This advancement is called gaining a level.

When your character gains a level, his or her class often grants additional features, as detailed in the class description. Some of these features allow you to increase your Ability Scores, either increasing two scores by 1 each or increasing one score by 2. You can’t increase an ability score above 20. In addition, every character’s proficiency bonus increases at certain levels.

Each time you gain a level, you gain 1 additional Hit Die. Roll that Hit Die, add your Constitution modifier to the roll, and add the total to your hit point maximum. Alternatively, you can use the fixed value shown in your class entry, which is the average result of the die roll (rounded up).

When your Constitution modifier increases by 1, your hit point maximum increases by 1 for each level you have attained. For example, if your 7th-level fighter has a Constitution score of 17, when he reaches 8th level, he increases his Constitution score from 17 to 18, thus increasing his Constitution modifier from +3 to +4. His hit point maximum then increases by 8.

The Character Advancement table summarizes the XP you need to advance in levels from level 1 through level 20, and the proficiency bonus for a character of that level. Consult the information in your character’s class description to see what other improvements you gain at each level.
