While any spellcaster can tap the potential coursing
through ley lines, the tradition of geomancy teaches the
art of becoming like a ley line and bonding with the great
flow of power. Geomancy is sometimes looked down on
by adherents of traditions that focus on individual magic
schools because it eschews specialization in favor of
molding any form of magic through the focused power of
ley lines.
Geomancers have an increased facility for tapping into
any ley line, but they also learn to bind themselves to a
specific ley line. While other spellcasters must be within
a ley line’s area of influence to use it, the geomancer
becomes a tributary of his or her chosen river of power,
capable of siphoning its power anywhere.
Except as noted below, geomancers function as wizards
and use the wizard spell list.
LEY LINE SAVANT
Beginning when you select this tradition at 2nd level, the
gold and time you must spend to copy a ley line spell into
your spellbook is halved.
When you gain a level, one of the two spells you learn for
gaining a level can be a ley line magic spell, even if you’ve
never encountered it before.
Additionally, you can sense the presence of nearby ley
lines. As an action, you can discern the distance to the
closest ley line within 1 mile, as well as the direction to
every ley line within 1 mile.
CHANNEL LEY LINE
Starting at 2nd level, when you finish a short or long rest within
1 mile of a weak ley line, you can bind yourself to that ley
line. You can be bound to only one ley line at a time. If
you later bind yourself to a second ley line, you lose your
connection to the previous one.
While you are bound to a ley line, you can channel the
power of the line into your spellcasting from any distance,
as long as you are on the same plane as the ley line. You
can use this feature a number of times equal to your
Intelligence modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all
expended uses when you finish a long rest.
LEY LINE MANIPULATION
Beginning at 6th level, when you augment your magic
with power from a ley line, you can reroll the effect of an
unlocked ley line or the result of a backlash. You must use
the rerolled result. After rerolling, you can't use a reaction
until the end of your next turn.
LEY LINE ADEPT
Starting at 10th level, you can bind yourself to weak or
strong ley lines with your Channel Ley Line feature.
In addition, you add your proficiency bonus to the ability
check when tapping a ley line for power.
LEY LINE MASTERY
At 14th level, you can bind yourself to weak, strong, or
titanic ley lines with your Channel Ley Line feature, and
you have advantage on the ability check to tap the ley line.
As an action, you can lock or unlock a ley line within
30 feet of you. When you lock a ley line, choose one of
its effects; the ley line will always have that effect for you
while it remains locked. Once you use this feature to lock
or unlock a ley line, you can’t do so again until you finish a
number of long rests depending on the intensity of the line:
one for a weak ley line, two for strong, and three for titanic.
