Circle of the Sun

Some druids gather to worship the singular day-star that gives warmth to the world. They are defenders of the living against the forces of darkness that haunt the night. Some of these druids even serve sun-deities like Freya, Pelor, or Apollo, performing services almost like clerics.

Radiant Form

2nd-level Circle of the Sun feature

As a bonus action, you can expend a use of Wild Shape to light up with the radiance of the sun. You shed bright light within a 30-foot radius, and dim light for an additional 30 feet. This effect lasts for 1 minute, and it ends early if you become Incapacitated.

As part of activating this ability, and as a bonus action on subsequent turns while this effect lasts, you can focus your light at a creature within 60 feet. Make a ranged spell attack roll against the target. On a hit, they take 7 (2d6) + your Wisdom modifier radiant damage.

Additionally, you gain 120 feet of darkvision.

Resplendant Dawn

6th-level Circle of the Sun feature

All light conjured by your levelled spells and subclass features is considered to be sunlight, and while you are in your Radiant Form, your darkvision pierces magical darkness.

Additionally, you gain resistance to radiant damage and you have advantage on saving throws to end or avoid the Blinded condition.

Coronal Mass Ejection

10th-level Circle of the Sun feature

Your Radiant Form now lasts 10 minutes and when you activate it a blinding burst of sunlight surrounds you, forcing creatures of your choice within 30 feet to make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC, or take 14 (4d6) radiant damage and be Blinded until the start of your next turn.

Brilliance of the Sun

14th-level Circle of the Sun feature

While you are in your Radiant Form, you are permanently under the effects of Brilliant Halo, without needing to concentrate on it. For you, the spell also gains a range of Touch, letting you cast it on others as well.
