Hello backers!

Presented here is the first draft of the newest Scholar archetype, the Diplomat. The Diplomat focuses on themes of travel, language, and social bonds. They also have an increased ability to dip their toes into the specialties of other Scholars! I’m excited to hear what you think.

Thanks as always for your support,

Benjamin

I really like this! My only criticism is the Oath-Sealing Covenant spell. I feel the "Indefinite" is far too long a duration for a 1st-level spell. Maybe it could be 24 hours at 1st-level, 7 days at 2nd, 30 days at 3rd, a year at 4th, and indefinite at 5th? I feel that could make the spell a bit more interesting to use, as well, allowing it to be used for time-sensitive matters in a more explicit way. Perhaps you could even write something in about knowing whether or not the promise has been kept when the spell ends.

One minor pet peeve of mine (that's in many 5e subclasses) is granting a skill proficiency above 1st level without anything for those who are already proficient. If you are going to be diplomatic and persuasive, generally, it would make sense to be persuasive from the start, which then means you gain less from that class feature. But waiting for the proficiency is kinda weird in game and very meta-gamey. If it is granting a skill prof in a skill not on the class list, that can make sense. But if it's already on the class list, it seems either you lose a prof or you meta-game and aren't good at something that is central to your character theme. Would it be too much to allow expertise if you are already proficient?

That little pet peeve aside - I like it! And thank you for posting the complete scholar. I LOVE that class!
