Hedge Wizard

Arcane Tradition
Comments from the Finger: Hedge wizards are the anti-wizard in a way. Where the normal wizard spends his days studying at an arcane university or apprenticing under a master, the hedge wizard teaches himself.

Hedge Wizard

Unlike ordinary wizards who learn their craft through extensive research and formal training, hedge wizards discover arcana on their own, reading what they can find, and uncovering deeper magic through experimentation. Hedge wizardry is defined by a lack of schooling, and consequently, hedge wizards are not grouped in traditional arcane schools. However, self-education is not without its drawbacks, for a hedge wizard is without school specialization, but is exceptionally practiced in lower level spells.
     Many norms for wizards do not apply to you. Your knowledge just as extensive, but is spread wider and over more schools than your formally-educated counterparts. Cantrips are your playthings, and you have become an expert in their use.

Cantrip Savant
You learn an additional wizard cantrip at 2nd level, 6th level, and 10th level. These cantrips don’t count against your number of cantrips known.

Hedge Magic 
At 2nd level, you gain an additional 1st level spell slot. You gain one more 1st level spell slot at 6th level and 14th level.

Migrant Spellcaster
Starting at 6th level, immediately after you cast a wizard cantrip, you can move 10 feet without provoking Opportunity Attacks.

Potent Cantrips
At 10th level, you can add your Intelligence modifier to the damage you deal with any wizard cantrip.

Master Magician
Starting at 14th level, when you cast a wizard cantrip, you can gain advantage on a spell attack roll or give the target of the cantrip disadvantage on their first saving throw made against the spell. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier and you regain all expended uses when you complete a long rest.

Changelog: 4/4/16: Migrant Spellcaster: This triggers immediately after you cast a cantrip.
