Wizard - Order of Geomancy
Leyline Invocation, by Liiga Smilshkalne
The Order of Geomancy is for wizards who seek to map leylines the world over, and tap invisible lines of force to amplify their own power!
Geomancy wizards are masters of battlefield positioning - by necessity. They can identify leylines on the battlefield and stand on them to enhance their own spells and those of their allies. They start every battle by identifying a leyline - the player picks one end, the DM picks the other. Once the leyline's been found, the geomancer orients their play around it - standing on the line when it's safe, or they need its power, or giving up and getting out of dodge if the situation's just too hairy.
Design-wise: This one was really fun. I had the idea kicking around for a few months before I figured out a way to implement the central leyline mechanic, and then it all came together quickly after that. Geomancers get free upcasting when they stand on leylines, and later on can grant that benefit to their allies. They can activate the leyline's power to deliver a devastating nuke, and at 14th level they can find a trio of lines and stand on the intersection to really channel that power.
