Pet Wrangler (5A)

This is a work in progress.

Familiar

As a pet wrangler, you befriend magical creatures. You learn the Find Familiar spell and can cast it as a ritual.

Pet

At first level you choose a class of pet you work with. This choice decides the abilities of your pet. Your pet advances in power and abilities as you advance in level. The pet gains new abilities at level XX, XX, XX, and XX, which abilities it gains depends on the type of pet you have,

Your pet is a single unique creature. You gain many abilities that help keep your pet alive and to allow you to bring it along when you usually could not, but if it dies or is lost permanently, It takes you a full week to find and bond with a new pet. If your pet is unusual in the area, you may have to travel to where such creatures are common or change to a type of pet that is locally available. You can also spend a week to exchange your pet for another pet, which can be of another type.

It is usually most fun to use creatures actually encountered in play as pet choices, but this is not mandatory.

Sense Pet

As a bonus action, you can sense the presence and location of the closest creature of your pet's creature type within 300 feet. Once you know of the presence of a creature, you can chose to ignore that creature when you use the ability again to find the next closest creature of this creature type. Any effect that protects against divination magic stops this ability.

Trainer’s Zeal

At 2nd level, your time training your pet has taught you how to recover quickly. On your turn, you can use a bonus action to regain hit points equal to 1d12 + your mahout level. Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again. You can use this feature twice between rests starting at 7th level, three times between rests starting at 14th level, and four times between rests at 20th level.

Whipmaster

At 2nd level your mastery of the whip allows you to use it in new ways.

As an action you can do a Grapple or Shove manoeuvre with the whip against a creature up to 10 feet away. When you use the whip to grapple, you do not need a free hand but cannot use the whip for other things until the grapple ends. When you shove, you can move the target in any direction without having to take disadvantage on the Strength (Athletics) check.
As a bonus action when wielding a whip you can create a loud snap. Used against a creature with an Intelligence of 5 or less within 20 feet, that creature must make a Charisma saving throw, DC 8 + your Wisdom modifier + your Proficiency Bonus or become frightened until the start of your next turn. The creature is frightened of the spot you created the snap, which can be any spot within 10 feet of you. This gives you influence over what direction the creature can move.
As a bonus action you can pick up an unattended item up to the size of a dagger and either pull it into your free hand or fling the object 20 feet in any direction - this is not precise enough to be used as an attack.

Lend Vigor

At 3rd level, the bond between you and your pet bring strength to limbs that otherwise have none. As an action you can take 1d12 damage and give your pet a number of temporary hit points equal to the die result plus your Constitution bonus. At 11th level, double the healing without increasing your loss of hit points. At 15th level, triple the healing.

Protective Pet

At 3rd level, as long as you are within 5 feet of your pet, you have half cover, giving you a +2 bonus to Armor Class and Dexterity saving throws.

Reserve Pet

At 5th level, you can have a second pet in training while adventuring with your first pet. Your pet in training stays in a safe location, usually in its wilderness home, while you are out adventuring. Should your first pet die, you can call on your reserve pet to replace it at the end of a long rest. Once you have used this ability, it takes a week to replace your reserve pet before you can use this ability again.

Dismiss Pet

At 6th level, your pit becomes more similar to a familiar. As an action, you can temporarily dismiss your pet to a pocket dimension. Any equipment the pet wears, such as armor or saddle, disappears with it. Anything the pet carries, such as a load or passenger, falls to the ground. As an action while it is temporarily dismissed, you can cause it to reappear in any unoccupied space within 30 feet of you. If your is pet capable of serving as a mount, you can have it appear in your space, and you end up mounted on it.

You cannot dismiss your pet if the pet has taken Hit Point damage, is incapacitated, or suffers from any effect that causes harm over time such as a lasting disease or poison. While dismissed, the pet is in a stasis and need not breathe, eat, drink, or rest.

Empowered Familiar

At 7th level, your link to your lesser bestial allies improves. Your familiar(s) have Hit Points equal to three times your level, Hit Dice equal to your level, and add your proficiency bonus to their Armor Class and to Dexterity (Stealth) and Wisdom (Perception) checks. In addition you have two choices.

Either you can keep multiple familiars simultaneously, 2 at 7th level and another one at level 10, 13, 16, and 19, for a total of 7 familiars at level 19.

Or you can extend the range of the telepathy you and your familiar has to a range of one mile per level. This does not extend the range your familiar can be at when it delivers a spell.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 11th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Pet Bond

At 13th level, the relationship you forge with your pet becomes remarkable and unbreakable. So long as you are able to see your pet and it is able to see you, you are both immune to the charmed and frightened conditions.

Second Pet

At 14th level, you can use your Reserve Pet ability to keep a small stable of different pets. At the end of a long rest you can change your pet type. You must decide the type of your second pet when you gain this ability. It takes one week to change the type of your second pet.

Domesticate

At 18th level, your incredible connection with monsters allows for a second pet in your heart , although it remains mostly wild. You are able to temporarily domesticate a second pet that lives somewhere of your choosing and keeps to itself, causing no trouble with local populations or otherwise drawing attention. After your current pet has died, you can perform a 10 minute ritual that summons the temporarily domesticated pet. No matter the distance, your domesticated pet arrives within 24 hours and becomes your new pet.
