Elemental Speech. You learn Primordial, and can speak with any elemental that has a language.

Elude Danger

When a foe barely misses you, you can spring back outside of their reach.

Prerequisite: Acrobatics proficiency

Benefit:

Increase your Dexterity or Wisdom score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
When a creature within 5 feet of you misses you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction to move up to 10 feet without provoking opportunity attacks. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.
