The weaveborn is a conductor of unbridled arcane energy. Their very essence is infused with the Weave itself, granting them an unparalleled connection to its secrets. Their versatility does not come from knowing many spells, but they can shape the threads of magic into exactly what the situation requires. Will you work to understand the connection that you have with the mystical world, or simply exploit it for your own gain?
Weaveborn Origin and Appearance
As a Weaveborn sorcerer, you decide how you came into possession of this power. Is it a result of your heritage or a gift (or even a curse) acquired later in life? For some Weaveborn, the weave's influence has left a physical mark. The tables below offers some suggestions.
d6 | Origin |
---|---|
1 | You were conceived in the exact location where two leylines intersect. |
2 | You were caught in a raw magical storm, which flung you through the space between the planes. When you landed, you had this power. |
3 | Your mother was a powerful wizard who made herself pregnant using magic. |
4 | You found a cracked magical artifact, whose power leaked into you. |
5 | One of your ancestors was a powerful elemental force, such as a Phoenix or Leviathan. |
6 | You do not know where the power comes from, only that it is very useful. |
d6 | Appearance |
---|---|
1 | Your eyes are windows into the raw weave, showing swirling magic with glittering star-like flecks. |
2 | Your hair takes on a color corresponding to the school of magic of the last spell you cast. |
3 | Glowing scars in the form of rune-words adorns your body. |
4 | When people touch you, they receive a small static shock. |
5 | You smell faintly of sulphur, perfume, or ozone. |
6 | You leave a short trail of illusory sparks when you move. |

Level 3: Child of the Weave
The weave that powers all arcane magic flows through you. As a conduit of the raw weave, external magic sometimes has a tendency to simply fall off you like rain off a roof. You have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects when you are not wearing armor or a shield.
Level 3: Attuned to the Weave
Your senses have becomed attuned to the faintest trace of magical residue. You can cast the Detect Magic and Identify spells at will, requiring no material components.
Additionally, you gain proficiency in the Arcana skill and you can use your Charisma modifier in place of your Intelligence modifier when you make Arcana ability checks.
Level 6: Metamagical Nexus
The weave powers you, and you power the weave. You learn one additional Metamagic option. This, or one of your other known Metamagic options becomes your Signature Metamagic, and its cost is reduced by 1, to a minimum of 0, when you use it to modify a Sorcerer spell.
Level 14: Weavesmith
Bending magic to your every whim has become almost effortless as your connection to the weave deepens. When you use two metamagic options on a spell during Innate Sorcery, you refund a single Sorcery Point.
Level 18: Unleash the Weave
When you use Innate Sorcery, you unleash the weave inside you, becoming a shimmering avatar of magical essence. You gain the following benefits:
- You gain a flight speed of 60 feet and can hover.
- You have resistance to all damage types except Force.
Additionally, you gain access to all available Metamagic Options.
