spellcasting:
By the time you reach 2nd level, you have learned to use the magical essence of nature to cast spells, much as a druid does. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting and the Spells Listing for the ranger spell list. Spell Slots The wanderer table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your warden spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell animal friendship and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast animal friendship using either slot. Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the wanderer spell list. The Spells Known column of the wanderer table shows when you learn more ranger spells of your choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 5th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the wanderer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the ranger spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots. Spellcasting Ability Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your ranger spells, since your magic draws on your attunement to nature. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a ranger spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one. Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

class features:
Chosen Prey
1st level Wanderer feature You know how to focus your senses on a particular creature that you have designated as your prey. Beginning at 1st level, you can use a bonus action to designate a single creature that you can see or that you are tracking as your chosen quarry. You always add your Proficiency Bonus to any Intelligence or Wisdom check you make to either find, track or recall knowledge about the target creature. If you would already add your Proficiency Bonus to the skill check, you double your proficiency bonus instead. You can have only one creature designated as your chosen prey at a time. If you target a creature with this feature and already have another creature designated as your prey, the prior creature loses the designation. The designation lasts until you finish a long rest. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. Chosen Prey grants additional benefits at 6th and 14th level.Favoured Terrain
1st level Wanderer feature You have become an expert at understanding the challenges of certain environments and how to navigate them. Beginning at 1st level, choose arctic, desert, forest, grassland, mountain, swamp, underground or underwater as your favoured terrain. Consult with your DM about which terrain type would be most appropriate when you gain this feature. You gain the following benefits while you are within your favoured terrain:- You are not slowed by non-magical difficult terrain.
- You have advantage on Athletics, Acrobatics, Nature and Survival checks to move, navigate or forage in your favoured terrain.
- Your favoured terrain does not slow your groups travel during exploration.

3rd level Wanderer feature At 3rd level, you gain an instinctual connection to natural creatures, enabling you to communicate with them at a rudimentary level.

In most instances, even wild animals will give you the time to make your case.Ability Score Improvement

Choose either beasts, dragons, fey, giants, monstrosities or plants. When you roll inititiative and can see an enemy of your chosen type, you can use your Chosen Prey feature as a free action, targeting that creature. You can use this feature even if you haven't yet identified the creature's type, though it does not work against enemies disguised as other creatures. Additionally, you gain advantage on any check you make using your Chosen Prey feature if the designated creature is of your chosen type.Favoured Terrain Improvement
6th level Wanderer feature You are able to adapt to almost any natural environment given time. You can spend 1 hour attuning yourself to your current terrain type and make it your favoured terrain, temporarily replacing your current favoured terrain.

You gain this information in addition to any information you would otherwise get for succeeding to recall knowledge.Preternatural Senses

Fey Steward
A fey mystique surrounds you, thanks to the boon of an archfey, the shining fruit you ate from a talking tree, the magic spring you swam in, or some other auspicious event. However you acquired your fey magic, you are now a Fey Steward, a Wanderer who represents both the mortal and the fey realms. As you wander the multiverse, your joyful laughter brightens the hearts of the downtrodden, and your martial prowess strikes terror in your foes, for great is the mirth of the fey and dreadful is their fury.Dreadful Strikes
3rd level Fey Steward featue You can augment your weapon strikes with mind-scarring magic, drawn from the gloomy hollows of the Feywild.
