Protomancer

Level 3

Channel the Raw Essence of Magic

Magic predates the written word, the founding of Wizard colleges, and even the invention of spells. Long before magic was formalized, mages funneled the bare threads of magic into protospells, fundamental expressions of what would later become the schools of magic. These spells predated the invention of material components and even the spellbook; as such, the first wizards etched protospells into their minds, consuming their memories as an important component of their spells.

The contemporary School of Protomancy seeks to rediscover the art of proto-magic through research and experimentation. Its protomages have no guidance for this forgotten art, but hope to learn from clues left in the structure of schools of magic.

Proto-Magic

Choose two Wizard spells with the [Protospell] tag and add them to your spellbook for free.

In addition, whenever you gain access to a new level of spell slots in this class, you can add one Wizard spell with the [Protospell] tag to your spellbook for free.

Amnesia Surge

When you cast a Wizard spell, you can also choose to un-prepare a Wizard spell that you have prepared. You can't use this feature to un-prepare a spell that you always have prepared. When you do so, you gain one of the following benefits of your choice.

Advantage on Spell Attacks

You have Advantage on spell attack rolls you make as part of the spell.

Impose Disadvantage

One target of the spell has Disadvantage on saves it makes against the spell.

Advantage on Saves

You have Advantage on saving throws until the start of your next turn.

Vital Recovery

Level 6

When you use your XPHB, you can expend a number of Hit Point Dice up to your Intelligence modifier. The combined number of spell slots regained by XPHB is increased by the number of Hit Point Dice expended in this way.

Mnemonic Concentration

Level 10

When you fail a Constitution saving throw to maintain Concentration on a spell, you take a Reaction to succeed on the saving throw instead. When you do so, you un-prepare a Wizard spell of your choice that you have prepared. You can't use this feature to un-prepare a spell that you always have prepared.

Proto-Master

Level 14

You can cast each spell with the [Protospell] tag you have prepared once without expending a spell slot. When you cast the spell in this way, its effective level is 3.

Once you cast a spell using this feature, you can't cast that spell this way again until you finish a Long Rest.
