Druid Request

[GandalfTheWhite]

Does anyone know of a homebrew druid circle that focuses on spirits and such? Or maybe has like a spirit animal, or a spectral version of the standard druid Wild Shape?

I'm working on a character, and my DM said she'd be down to allow homebrew if I could find one that's reasonably balanced.

Circle of the Shepherd. It was in the Unearthed Arcana for druids (https://media.wizards.com/2016/dnd/downloads/UA_Druid11272016_CAWS.pdf).

Only one I could find on giantitp that was specifically Spirit focused:

Druidic Circle of the Spirit (and some Land Druid spell lists) by hellspawnfish (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?472067-Druidic-Circle-of-the-Spirit-(and-some-Land-Druid-spell-lists))

You may also want to try searching for 'shaman' type things, they often have spirit guides and suchlike. I quite liked this one (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?458327-Shaman-Base-Class-for-5th-Edition-(PEACH)), though it is a base class so it might not help much if you've already taken levels of druid.

At Middle Finger of Vecna, we have this very thing lined up for our upcoming Patreon splat book. The Circle of the Setting Sun :smallsmile:

True. I thought the first power (spirit animal thinker) lined up with the request, but yeah after that it goes somewhere else.
