Circle of the Land

The Circle of the Land is made up of mystics and sages who safeguard ancient knowledge and rites through a vast oral tradition. These druids meet within sacred circles of trees or standing stones to whisper primal secrets in Druidic. The circle's wisest members preside as the chief priests of communities that hold to the Old Faith and serve as advisors to the rulers of those folk. As a member of this circle, your magic is influenced by the land where you were initiated into the circle's mysterious rites.

Circle Spells.

Your mystical connection to the land infuses you with the ability to cast certain spells. At 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level you gain access to circle spells connected to the land where you became a druid. Choose that land - arctic, coast, desert, forest, grassland, mountain, swamp, or cave - and consult the associated list of spells.
Once you gain access to a circle spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn't count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesn't appear on the druid spell list, the spell is nonetheless a druid spell for you.

Level 2 Features:

Bonus Cantrip.

When you choose this circle at 2nd level, you learn one additional druid cantrip of your choice.

Natural Recovery.

Starting at 2nd level, you can regain some of your magical energy by sitting in meditation and communing with nature. During a short rest, you choose expended spell slots to recover. The spell slots can have a combined level that is equal to or less than half your druid level (rounded up), and none of the slots can be 6th level or higher. You can't use this feature again until you finish a long rest.
For example, when you are a 4th-level druid, you can recover up to two levels worth of spell slots. You can recover either a 2nd-level slot or two 1st-level slots.

Level 6 Feature:

Natural Adaptation.

At 6th level, you are unaffected by non-magical difficult terrain as long as you are in the land you chose for your Circle Spells feature. You also gain another benefit depending on the land you chose.

Mountain: You gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed and may cast feather fall on yourself once per short or long rest without expending a spell slot. If you already had a climbing speed, your climbing speed increases by 30 ft. Additionally, you are adapted to high altitudes if you weren't already.
Swamp: You are immune to disease, have advantage on saving throws against poison, and have resistance to poison damage. If you are already resistant to poison damage, you are now immune.
