Who can use Cantrips?

Any character that can cast from level one will have access to cantrips (those being Artificers, Bards, Clerics, Druids, Rangers, Sorcerers, Warlocks, and Wizards… so a fair chunk of the playable classes). Some cantrips are class specific, like Thaumaturgy (a Cleric cantrip).

How do I get more Cantrips?

Cantrips: You get the number on your class sheet and that’s it – you can’t change them by the book. Most DM’s will rule on level up you can swap them out. As for gaining additional ones, by book, I believe Magic Initiate (a feat) is the only way to get more.
