Ability Score Increase
Your Strength score increases by 2, and your Wisdom score increases by 1.

Age
Young tortles crawl for a few weeks after birth before learning to walk on two legs. They reach adulthood by the age of 15 and live an average of 50 years.

Alignment
Tortles tend to lead orderly, ritualistic lives. They develop customs and routines, becoming more set in their ways as they age. Most are lawful good. A few can be selfish and greedy, tending more toward evil, but it’s unusual for a tortle to shuck off order in favor of chaos.

Size
Tortle adults stand 5 to 6 feet tall and average 450 pounds. Their shells account for roughly one-third of their weight. Your size is Medium.

Speed
Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Claws
Your claws are natural weapons, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with them, you deal slashing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.

Hold Breath
You can hold your breath for up to 1 hour at a time. Tortles aren’t natural swimmers, but they can remain underwater for some time before needing to come up for air.

Natural Armor
Due to your shell and the shape of your body, you are ill-suited to wearing armor. Your shell provides ample protection, however; it gives you a base AC of 17 (your Dexterity modifier doesn’t affect this number). You gain no benefit from wearing armor, but if you are using a shield, you can apply the shield’s bonus as normal.

Shell Defense
You can withdraw into your shell as an action. Until you emerge, you gain a +4 bonus to AC, and you have advantage on Strength and Constitution saving throws. While in your shell, you are prone, your speed is 0 and can’t increase, you have disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws, you can’t take reactions, and the only action you can take is a bonus action to emerge from your shell.

Survival Instinct
You gain proficiency in the Survival skill. Tortles have finely honed survival instincts.

Tortle Magic
You know the Druidcraft and Prestidigitation cantrips.

At 3rd level you learn the Goodberry and Purify Food and Drink spells. You can cast these spells a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

At 5th level, you learn the Locate Animals or Plants and Warding Wind spells. You can cast both these spells once per long rest.

Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells when you cast them with this trait

Form of Dread
1st-level Undead feature

You manifest an aspect of your patron’s dreadful power. As a bonus action, you transform for 1 minute. You gain the following benefits while transformed:

You gain temporary hit points equal to 1d10 + your warlock level.
Once during each of your turns, when you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can force it to make a Wisdom saving throw, and if the saving throw fails, the target is frightened of you until the end of your next turn.
You are immune to the frightened condition.
You can transform a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

The appearance of your Form of Dread reflects some aspect of your patron. For example, your form could be a shroud of shadows forming the crown and robes of your lich patron, or your body might glow with glyphs from ancient funerary rites and be surrounded by desert winds, suggesting your mummy patron.

Scythe

River of Shadows. Your riverboat accidentally slipped through the veil into the realm of souls for several hours. While you were there, you sold some stolen dragonborn artifacts before returning to this plane and paddling home.

Nothing rattles me; I have a lie for every occasion.

Daring I am most happy when risking everything. (Any)

I was tricked by a fellow smuggler who stole something precious from me. I will find that thief.

I tend to assess my relationships in terms of profit and loss.
