Some folks spend their entire lives trying to achieve greatness. Endless time spent toiling away to escape the mundane only to end up back where you started. For those rare few, all it takes is a spark…

Those familiar with Magic the Gathering know what Planeswalkers are, individuals born with the Spark who gain the ability to travel across the Multiverse. Sparkborn are my take on bringing Planeswalkers to Fifth Edition without the threat of Pinkertons visiting me in my sleep.
To the less informed, Sparkborn is an optional Character Feature DMs can run to allow players to travel to different planes without needing 7th Level Spell Slots or Very Rare Magical items. The goal is to also provide addition bonuses to expand on different playstyles.

In every generation a handful of people are born with the Spark, but even fewer ignite it.
Perhaps the players ignited their spark in a dangerous situation, or suffered a traumatic experience. Maybe they were on their last legs fighting a pack of wolves, or a loved one was executed and they were pushed over the edge. Regardless of the specifics, igniting a Spark is not a typical event and should be triggered by atypical circumstances.

All Sparks come with a base set of abilities. Some of these abilities may be influenced by the type of spark or class that a player has, which is covered further down. All levels refer to the Character Level, not class level.

At Level One, you gain the ability to cast Plane Shift without using a spell slot or any material components. Below is a rough table to use as a base for how frequently players can use this spell and the limitation on where they can go, however a DM can adjust this limit to better suit their campaign or as circumstances dictate to better suit the story.
