Buer (5e Subclass)

Buer

Buer

Buer, although not the first choice of many warlocks, is a very powerful demonic entity whose focus is on healing. He teaches natural and moral philosophy, logic, and the virtues of all herbs and plants, and is also capable of healing all infirmities (especially of men) and bestows good familiars. Buer has a powerful personality and demands the respect that a demon of his caliber deserves. That being said, he is arguably neutral, not evil, as oposed to the vast majority of demons. The few who wish to use his power are frequently demanded to abstain from drugs and alcohol. Exceptions are possible, albeit rare.

Expanded Spell List

Buer lets you choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a warlock spell. The following spells are added to the warlock spell list for you.

Buer's Teachings

At 1st level, you learn the druidcraft and infestation cantrips[[#[2]|[2]]]. They count as warlock cantrips for you, but they don't count against your number of cantrips known.

Additionally, when your body tires, it becomes easier for your patron to influence you. For each exhaustion level you currently have, your potion and poison making speed is doubled, and you gain a +1 to potion and poison making checks. Your walking speed cannot be reduced below 5 feet by any exhaustion level. Whenever you spend an entire day and night without any sleep, you can choose to give yourself one additional level of exhaustion. You don't get the disadvantage caused by exhaustion on any checks related to potion and poison making, as well as using, collecting and identifying herbs and alchemical ingredients.

Herbs Master

Starting at 1st level, you may add your proficiency modifier as an bonus to any rolls related to identification and collection of herbs, alchemical materials and body parts as well as potion and poison making. If you already use your proficiency bonus to a given check related to the aforementioned activities, double your proficiency modifier.

In addition, you may choose to reroll a dice related to one of those activities. Once you do this, you can't do it again until you complete a short or a long rest.

Healer of All Infirmities

Starting at 6th level, whenever you recover the hit points of a creature (including you), they recover a bonus amount equal to 1d4 hit points. This increases to 1d6 at 11th level.

Additionally, you may cast any healing spell up to 2nd level spells without expending a spell slot. The spell's maximum level is increased to 3rd at 11th level. Once you use this feature, you can't do it again until you complete a long rest.

Alchemy Master

Starting at 10th level, if you have at least one point of exhaustion, you can choose to spend 2000 gp worth in ingredients and work for 48 hours to duplicate any potion that is currently under your possession. Once you do this, you can't do it again until you complete a short or long rest.

Buer's Representant

Starting at 14th level, Buer will send a small spirit created by himself to aid you as a reward for your loyalty. When you gain this feature, you can choose one of the following options. The spirit chosen cannot be changed:

  • Faery: A hand-sized, humanoid, colorless fairy with either moth or butterfly wings.
  • Black Lion: A black lion with red eyes and a snake tail, the size of a medium dog.
  • Buer's Miniature: A miniature of Buer himself, about 1ft. x 1ft. total size.

See the spirit game statistics in the stat blocks bellow. The spirit can be tasked with any orders it should realistically be able to accomplish. They have their own personalities and feelings, but also a great sense of loyalty. All of the spirits can speak telepathically with you while within 1 mile.

Your spirit has abilities and game statics determined in part by your level. Whenever you gain the Ability Score Improvement class feature, your spirit's abilities also improve. Your spirit can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or it can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, your spirit can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature unless its description specifies otherwise.

The proficiency bonus of the spirits is always 6, unless raised or lowered by a spell or condition.

In the case they die, you can take 1 hour to perform a ritual to conjure the same spirit again.
