Being born under the carcass of the Alphalodon, Nepenthe gain heightened magical affinity. This allows them to increase the potency of their spells naturally by focusing on the image of the great beast.
Upon spellcasting, the nepenthe can augment their spell by expending an inheritance slot. Utilizing an inheritance slot grants the following benefits:
1d4 + half your player level (rounded down) damage to single-target spells.
1d4 to the difficulty of a saving throw.
Augment the effect of any healing spell by 1d4 + your player level.
All effects increase to 1d6 at 7th level, 1d8 at 12th level, 1d10 at 15th level and 1d'12 at 20th level. These increases only affect Nepenthes, all other races stay at 1d4.
At level 3, you start with a baseline of 3 slots. You gain another slot every odd level. You regain all your inheritance slots after a long rest.
