Overall, I think this is an excellent addition to the Druid Circles. I only have two negative things I really feel the need to mention; One is a personal decision, and isn't largely reflective of the product. The other is something I feel needs to be fixed.

  1. As a DM allowing this, I opted to use Produce Flame as the cantrip for Elemental Affinity: Fire. It felt more valuable, and appropriate, but that's just my opinion.
  2. At level 6, you gain resistance to poison, as well as a damage type based on your Elemental Affinity. Earth gains resistance to Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing; I assume this only applies to nonmagical sources, but it doesn't say anywhere if that is the case.

Regardless of these minor issues I found with it, the circle itself is quite interesting, and seems well balanced. Replacing Wild Shapes with Elemental Shapes was an excellent idea, and definetly adds to the circle.

Thank you! You are absolutely correct in calling out the physical damage resistance for the Earth Affinity. It should be qualified with "non-magical." I'm glad you enjoyed the Circle and I hope your player has had fun with it!

This is a solid addition to the assortment of Druid Circles. It gives a very interesting flavor, and is in my opinion neither over nor underpowered. If I had a player interested in running this sort of character, I'd allow it at my table. I'm likely to bring it to someone else's table when I get a chance to play again!
