Finite Energy Magic is unlimited, but your ability to channel it is. Spellcasters can initially cast a number of cantrips equal to their proficiency bonus plus their key ability modifier. Cantrip slots are restored after a short or long rest. At each even-numbered level, characters gain an additional cantrip slot in addition to any increases which come from an increased proficiency bonus and/or key ability modifier. For example, a level 10 wizard with an Intelligence score of 18 would be able to cast her cantrips up to 13 times without needing to take a short rest: 4 from her key ability modifier, 4 from her proficiency bonus, and 5 more from character levels. If creating a character at a level higher than 1st, your number of cantrips per rest is equal to your proficiency bonus plus key ability modifier plus half your character level (rounded down, as is always the case). Cantrip slot increases occur regardless of the class which is raised, meaning that the number of uses increases even for those characters who do not have a spellcasting class, such as an elven fighter who has only a single cantrip granted by his heritage.

Zendrila Morningmist Label Info Heritage Elf, moon Origin Myth Drannor Alignment Neutral good Class Fighter Subclass Eldritch Knight Background Inheritor Feat Vigilant For as long as she could remember, Zendrila Morningmist has always wanted to be a Purple Dragon Knight. Initially, this was a childish desire based on her fondness of the color—like her hair and eyes—and a love for stories of dashing knights slaying evil dragons. It wasn’t until she was in her teens that her mother Alanathria informed her that becoming a Purple Dragon Knight first required one to be a soldier in the army of Cormyr, a human kingdom to the southwest. She soon turned her attention to becoming a knight of her home city of Myth Drannor, only to quickly learn from her laughing father Solaudril that the Knights of Myth Drannor was the name of an adventuring company also originally based out of Cormyr. A few years later, the Morningmist family was among the thousands of refugees who fled the destruction of Myth Drannor for Semberholme, a wooded range of hills which had been virtually abandoned following the elven Retreat nearly two centuries ago. Now living on the border with Cormyr, Zendrila realized her first
Verana Duskwalker Label Info Heritage Elf, moon Origin Evermeet Alignment Neutral good Class Wizard Subclass Enchanter Background Far Traveler Feat Musician Verana’s mother died soon after she was born and she never knew her father, so she was made a ward of Queen Amlaruil Moonflower and raised within the royal household. When Verana was barely twenty, the entire island nation of Evermeet was shifted into Faerie, the plane from which the elven people had originated several millennia ago. Queen Amlaruil died from the strain of enacting that great transportation, and Verana and her fellow ward Azariah were then shuffled among multiple instructors and tutors. Overall, life in Faerie—the Feywild—wasn’t much different for the people of Evermeet: they were isolated on Toril, and remained so in their new plane. On Toril, the elves insulated themselves against non-elves, but in the Feywild, many of the archfey, leShay, and eladrin of the plane held themselves apart from the elves they considered to be “dangerously shortsighted”, but other eladrin and lesser fey were happy to interact with the “younger” elves. For her part, Verana delighted in her encounters with the fey, playing games with pixies and music with grigs, as well as learning the
With their unearthly grace and fine features, elves appear hauntingly beautiful to most other humanoids. Elves have no facial and little body hair. Surface elves favor elegant clothing in bright colors, and they enjoy simple yet lovely jewelry.
