scores increase by 1. They may also choose from this

Blood Wizardry Your godly parent occasionally smiles
upon your arcane exploits. You can try to cast any cantrip
from the Wizard spell list. To do so, you must make a DC
10 Intelligence (Arcana) check. On a successful check, you
cast the spell. On an unsuccessful check, the spell fails.
Arcane Enlightenment You may spend 1 minute
studying a magical spell or effect. At the completion of this
minute, you gain a brief insight into the magic’s purpose,
what it does, and any material components used. You also
learn the magic’s school and duration.
Mage’s Evasion Your divine heritage gives you a knack
for evading for hostile magic. When you are hit with a spell
or magical effect, you can use your reaction to instead take
half damage. This feature also applies to spells or effects
that require saving throws.
Forge Domain
Demigods of a forge domain have their Strength or
Dexterity scores increase by 1. They may also choose from
this selection of features that forge domain demigods have

Crafter’s Strike Precision and accuracy run in your
blood. When you hit creature with a melee weapon attack,
you can focus your crafting knowledge to make that attack
a critical hit. For this feature to work, the weapon used
must deal either bludgeoning or slashing damage, and the
target of your attack must be within 5ft of you.
Artisanal Heritage If you do not have one already, you
gain a permanent proficiency with one set of artisans’ tools.
When you make a check to use these tools, you may add
double your proficiency modifier to the roll.

works. You may use an action to study an item or object
and perceive its age, its purpose, the race of the
manufacturer, and what material it was crafted from.
Grave Domain
Demigods of a grave domain have their Wisdom scores
increase by 1. They may also choose from this selection of
features that grave domain demigods have in common.
Undead Resistance Your parentage gives you a
tolerance for Undead. You have a permanent advantage on
saves against the innate abilities some undead possess,
such as a banshee’s wail, or a vampire’s charm.
Graveyard Speech You have a permanent, innate ability
to communicate with undead. While you may not always be
able to understand them, they can always hear and
understand you no matter which languages they spoke in
life.
Gate Watcher Your position on the edge of life and death
gives you some power over those about to pass over. When
a creature within 30ft of you fails a Death Saving Throw,
you may use your reaction to turn it into a success. If this
would be their third success, the creature regains
consciousness with 1 hit point.
Order Domain
Demigods of an order domain have their Charisma scores
increase by 1. They may also choose from this selection of
features that order domain demigods have in common.

of others. After spending 1 day in a settlement, you can
successfully figure out it’s laws and customs, regardless of
whether you speak the language.
Relatable Authority People in power can see and
respect your authority. You gain a permanent advantage on
Charisma (Persuasion) checks against any creature in a
position of power, such as guards, governing individuals,
and royalty.
Ordered Thoughts You have always had the ability to
literally organise your ideas. You learn the Encode
Thoughts cantrip. This is a permanent ability.

features that blood domain demigods have in common.
Crimson Taste You gain the ability to draw power from
the blood that others have. On your turn you can make a
bite attack against a creature that has blood. This bite
counts as an unarmed attack that deals necrotic damage
equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier. If the bite is
successful, you gain temporary hit points equal to the
necrotic damage dealt.
Predatory Mind You are adept at taking advantage of an
opponent’s weakness. You learn the Toll the Dead cantrip.
This is a permanent ability.
Dreadful Sentinel When a creature you can see makes
an attack against a target within 30ft of you, you can use
your reaction to hold the attacker back and impose
disadvantage on the attack. You can use this feature a
number of times equal to your Constitution modifier.

Protector’s Aid You were born to protect others. If a
creature within 30ft of you is targeted by a spell, effect, or
attack that would cause them to make a dexterity saving
throw, you can impose your will to intervene. They gain
advantage on the save, and if they would take half damage
on a success, they instead take none on a successful save.

surprised condition while conscious, and enemies cannot
gain advantage from being unseen by you.
Twilight
Demigods of a twilight domain have their Wisdom scores
increase by 1. They may also choose from this selection of

Night Watcher You are used to spending your nighttime
hours watchful and awake. Occasionally you may choose to
forgo sleeping during a long rest. You still regain hit points,
spells, class features, and other consumed resources as
you normally would, but instead of sleeping you remain
conscious and alert. Once you use this feature, you cannot
use it again for 7 days.
Twilight Eyes You gain the permanent ability to see in
magical darkness. Additionally, magic cannot be used to
blind you, and dim light does not force disadvantage on
your Wisdom (Perception) checks.
Shadow Step You gain the ability to step from one patch
of shadow to another. In dim or dark lighting conditions,
you may magically teleport up to 30ft to an unoccupied
location of your choice.
