Critter Friend

Feat

Prerequisite: Forest Gnome

Your friendship with animals mystically deepens. You gain the following benefits:

• You gain proficiency in the Animal Handling skill. If you’re already proficient in it, you instead gain expertise in it.
• You learn the speak with animals spell and can cast it at will, without expending a spell slot. You also learn the animal friendship spell, and you can cast it once with this feat, without expending a spell slot. You regain the ability to cast it in this way when you finish a long rest. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for all three spells. If you have spell slots from either the Spellcasting or Pact Magic feature, you can use those spell slots to cast the spells, and the spells count as being spells from the class you have the Spellcasting or Pact Magic feature from when you use the spell slots from that class.
