Winds of Rebirth
At 1st level, when you die, you instead turn to a gust if wind and an egg 3 ft wide appears where you had died. You emerge from the egg next week in peak form without any of your equipment or clothing. If this egg is destroyed, you die. The egg has hit points equal to half of your maximum health, rounded up, and an AC of 18.
Spellcasting
You may pick spells and cantrips from the Wind Healer Spell list, which is listed at the bottom.
- Cantrips
At 1st level, you know three Cantrips of your choice from the Wind Healer spell list. You learn an additional Wind Healer cantrip of your choice at 4th level and another at 10th level.
- Preparing and Casting Spells
The Wind Healer table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your druid spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these Wind Healer spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.
You prepare the list of Wind Healer spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Wind Healer spell list. When you do so, choose a number of druid spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your Wind Healer level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
For example, if you are a 3rd-level Wind Healer, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Wisdom of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell cure wounds, you can cast it using a 1st-level or 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn't remove it from your list of prepared spells.
You can also change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of Wind Healer spells requires time spent in prayer and meditation: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.
- Spellcasting Ability
Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your Spells, since the power of your magic relies on your ability to project your will of fire and heat into the world. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC and spellcasting attack modifier for a Wind Healer spell you cast. Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier Spell Attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier Spellcasting Focus You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your Wind Healer Spells.
Sky Pact
At second level, you chose a Sky Pact. Choose between Healing Gusts, Fast Winds, and Raging Hurricane detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at level 2 and again at 5, 9, 14, and 19.
Breath of Fresh Air
At 2nd level, whenever the Wind Healer casts a spell that cures hit point damage or gives temporary hit points, they add their Charisma modifier to the amount healed (minimum of 1). For instance, if a 1st level healer with 18 Wisdom and 16 Charisma, casts cure wounds, they cure 1d8+4 points of damage normal, plus an additional 3 points of damage due to their Charisma bonus. This bonus applies only to spells that you cast as a healer, not to those that you may have by virtue of levels in another class.
Gift of Life
Beginning at 2nd level, a Wind Healer can use an action to expend one use of a Healer’s Kit to tend to a creature and restore 1d6 + Wind Healer level hit points to it, plus additional hit points equal to the creature’s maximum number of Hit Dice. The creature can not regain hit points from this feature again until it finishes a short or long rest. Wind Healer’s also have double proficiency on Medicine skill checks, if already proficient. If the Wind Healer does not have proficiency in Medicine, they get it from this feature. In addition, whenever the Wind Healer uses a Healer’s Kit on a creature, they can be stabilized and return to 1 hit point, this can only occur to the same creature once after the end of a short or long rest.
Curing Breezes
Starting at 3rd level, a Wind Healer’s mere touch can heal ailments. When you cast any spell with a range of touch from the Wind Healer Spellcasting feature, in addition to what it normally does when cast, removes 1 effect causing any of the following conditions: blinded, deafened, diseased, frightened, paralyzed, or poisoned.
Storm Bird
At level 3 you have are gifted by the sky with an avian companion. A small hawk surrounded by a light breeze appears within a 5 ft free space around you, if none are free it perches on your shoulder. While perched on your shoulder, you gain the benefits of its features. If was to die or vanish you must wait until the next sunrise to summon it back and replaces your familiar (if you have one) whenever summoned.
