Northerner
Northerner’s are rangers who are quite at home in the frozen wastes in the far corners of the earth. They catch fish, sled down hills and tell great stories of the sun and moon. Because of their cold lifestyle these rangers don’t mind the cold one bit.
Despite their Northerner name, these rangers often live at the south pole as well.
Northerner spellcasting
Starting at the 3rd level, you gain the create bonfire (XGE) cantrip to aid in the frigid north.
You also learn the following spells at their respective levels, which don’t count against your known spells.
Ranger Level - Spell known
3rd - Ice knife (XGE)
5th - Moonbeam
9th - Sleet storm
13th - Ice storm
17th - Cone of cold
Harmless chill
Starting at the 3rd level, because of your northern lifestyle, you gain immunity to cold damage. Whenever you take cold damage you gain temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus. In addition, you are unaffected by terrain made of snow and ice and suffer no drawbacks from it.
Icy weaponry
Starting at the 3rd level, your connection with the arctic tundra causes your weapons to chill.
Once per turn when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you may deal an additional 1d4 cold damage. The extra damage increases to 1d6, when you reach 11th level.
Arctic form
Starting at the 7th level, you learn how to make magical seal armor. When you take a long rest you may construct a set of hide armor out of seal blubber. When you don this armor, you gain a +2 to your armor class, however for anyone else it functions as regular hide armor. While wearing this armor you can use a bonus action to turn into either a common seal or a leopard seal, gaining temporary hit points equal to the seal’s hp.
All of your equipment merges into your new form and you gain the following statistics other than mental statistics. However you lose the ability to speak.
When you drop to 0 hit points in seal form the magic of your armor depletes (Meaning you lose the +2 bonus to your hide armor) and you may not shift again until you complete a short rest and take the time to repair the seal armor.
You lose all class and race features in seal form.
