![]() This isn't the best way to obtain self-sourced magic, though, as a loss of faith in the Oath (perhaps from a change in life perspective) can spell doom for the whole setup.ĭon't join a paladin order, but be just as zealous and thrice as crazy. Someone with sufficient zeal can be so self-righteously convinced in the rightness of their Oath that their conviction turns into magical power, even without the backing of an actual god. This is probably the best reasonable answer, as the benefits of monkhood aren't as conditional as some of the other options. Their bodies and magical abilities literally strengthen through training, granting all sorts of benefits (like not needing to eat/drink or not suffering the frailty of old age). Monks improve their bodies and spirits to enhance and draw upon the latent magic within every creature that has a soul. In terms of a single creature undergoing some Lamarckian evolution into a more magical form without directly drawing on outside power, though? I'm thinking these are some of the best bets: By the technical definition, evolution can lead to magical creatures. Additionally, the gem dragon god Sardior (at least in past editions) seemed convinced he could bring about an increase in psionic abilities in mortal races by encouraging mixed breeding here and there. ![]() Over time, the general population of the Realms is becoming more and more magically capable (on average), with more people having the Gift appearing each year. that is until I can't go to bed because I can't stop thinking about it. So I'm probably through searching myself. I pretty much wasted the entire day pouring through the wiki just to come up short. If anyone knows of any counterexamples, I'm dying to hear them. So I posit this: magic won't arise unless acted upon by a higher being, or at least a being of the intelligence required to do wizard shit. All the Sorcerer subclasses relate back to some Outer Plane or being from said planes (plus Dragons, but they're in their own category). I did a bit more digging but nothing stuck. The fact their creature type is Monstrosity doesn't help either (ignoring the fact that Monstrosity seems to be the "catch-all" creature type for stuff that doesn't fit any of the others) However, even though they look nearly identical to panthers and literally have "Beast" in their name, they technically originate from the Feywild. Now the explanation for this is your usual Underdark "faerzress" stuff, so not technically evolution. The biggest difference being that they had the ability to use the dancing lights cantrip to communicate to each other in the darkness of the Underdark. My first thought was the Deep Rothé, which are pretty similar to their non-Deep counterparts. "Even magical detection concealed its true nature, revealing it to be a bag of holding."įor some reason, this lead me to think whether a creature that isn't magical can somehow evolve into it. ![]() So I was reading, oddly enough, the description for the bag of devouring on the Forgotten Realms wiki. ![]()
