Channeler and Sage Subclass by Apparition?


Animist Class Discussion

Verdant Wheel

What if each Apparition, in addition to granting spells, also granted a different benefit to each sub-class?

As an example.

Channeler could get a resistance based off one energy type, in addition to everything it already receives.

Sage could get proficiency in a single weapon group, in addition to everything is already receives.

Something to telegraph their intended purpose (before 9th level) mechanically?

A third subclass could one day get training in a skill, etc...

I think Channeler already greatly benefits from the access to the Apparitions' Focus spells thanks to the Whirl.

Sage could have a specific benefit when they select the Apparition as primary, to go with the idea that they focus on the same Apparition.

Don't really like this idea. "Intended purpose" feels like a bad way to go about things. Animist is meant to be flexible, don't take that away from them.

Sage could use a tiny boost to possession, but I'd rather not see it forced into a particular build.
