Description
Draw on the Might of Ancient Wild Terrors
Legends tell that the most ancient and fearsome terrors lurk deep within the old places of the earth—unfathomable and bloodthirsty entities of fallow soil and sharpened claws. Hollow Wardens venerate and draw power from such beings, transforming themselves into similarly merciless and monstrous guardians that stalk along jagged coastlines, across steep mountain crags, and through other dark and wild places.

Wrath of the Wild Nivel 3
You draw on the strange and ancient horrors of the land for power. When you cast Hunter's Mark, you transform, gaining the following benefits for the duration of the spell.
Ancient Armor. You gain a bonus to your AC equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1). Your body is wreathed in rotten bark or beastly bristles.
Unnerving Aura. When an enemy starts its turn within a 10-foot Emanation originating from you, it makes a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, it can take either an action or a Bonus Action on this turn, not both. Your shadow lengthens and twists around you, or you sprout unnatural growths like bloody antlers or putrid fangs.
Hungering Might Nivel 7
You gain a bonus to Constitution saving throws equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1). In addition, once per turn when you hit a creature with an attack roll while you are transformed using Wrath of the Wild, you regain a number of Hit Points equal to 1d10 plus your Wisdom modifier, provided you are Bloodied when you hit.
Rot And Violence Nivel 11
Your dedication to eldritch forest beings alters you further. When transformed using Wrath of the Wild, you gain the following additional benefits.
Eerie Aura. When a creature fails its saving throw against your Unnerving Aura, it also takes Necrotic, Poison, or Psychic damage (your choice) equal to your Ranger level. This damage ignores Resistance.
Strangling Roots. When you hit a creature with an attack roll using a weapon, you can activate the Sap or Slow mastery property in addition to a different mastery property you're using with that weapon.
Ancient Endurance Nivel 15
You become wholly suffused with the forest's ancient power, granting you the following benefits.
Persistent Hunt. If you drop to 0 Hit Points while transformed using Wrath of the Wild and don't die outright, you can expend a level 4+ spell slot (no action required). Your Hit Points then instead change to an amount equal to five times the level of the spell slot expended.
Timeless. You have Immunity to the Exhaustion condition.
