The spell counts as a ranger spell for you, but it doesn't count against the number of ranger spells you prepare.\r\n[table]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td][b]Ranger Level[\/b][\/td]\r\n[td][b]Spells[\/b][\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]3rd[\/td]\r\n[td]beast bond[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]5th[\/td]\r\n[td]warding bond[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]9th[\/td]\r\n[td]conjure animals[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]13th[\/td]\r\n[td]dominate beast[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]15th[\/td]\r\n[td]awaken[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[\/table]\r\n[h2]Ranger's Companion[\/h2]\r\nAlso at 3rd level, you gain a beast companion that accompanies you on your adventures and is trained to fight alongside you. A special type of beast awaits a Beast Master in the wilds, a creature whose lineage stretches back to the beginnings of the world: a primal beast known as a Beast of the Air or a Beast of the Earth. Such a creature seeks out the type of companionship that a Beast Master offers, ready for the two of them to battle the imbalances in the natural world. The primal beast is a special creature that a Beast Master can choose for the Ranger\u2019s Companion feature. When choosing such a creature, you decide whether it is a Beast of the Air or the Earth, and you determine its appearance. In combat, the beast companion shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take one of the actions in its stat block or the Hide, or Search action. If it has died within the last hour, you can use touch the body as an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The beast companion returns to life after 1 minute with all its hit points restored.\r\n\r\nYour companion shares your alignment, and has a personality trait and a flaw that you can roll for or select from the tables below. Your companion shares your ideal, and its bond is always, \u201cThe ranger who travels with me is a beloved companion for whom I would gladly give my life.\r\n[table]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td][b]d6[\/b][\/td]\r\n[td][b]Trait[\/b][\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]1[\/td]\r\n[td]I\u2019m dauntless in the face of adversity.[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]2[\/td]\r\n[td]Threaten my friends, threaten me.[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]3[\/td]\r\n[td]I stay on alert so others can rest.[\/td]\r\n[\/tr]\r\n[tr]\r\n[td]4[\/td]\r\n[td]People see an animal and underestimate me.

In addition, the beast's attacks now count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.\r\n\r\n[h2]Storm of Claw and Fangs[\/h2]\r\nStarting at 11th level, you can use your bonus action to command your beast companion to make a melee attack against each creature of your choice within 5 feet of it, with a separate attack roll for each target.\r\n\r\n[h2]Defensive Coordination[\/h2]\r\nStarting at 15th level, when an attacker that you can see hits your beast companion with an attack, you can call out a warning. If your beast companion can hear you, it can use its reaction to halve the attack\u2019s damage against it.","tabledata":"","tags":"","isShared":"on","templateId":"25","blockId":"860380","world":"3c69f9b0-0c0e-48da-8e0a-784fdc4d5f19","folder":""}
