Primal Path:
Path of Scarlet
Slaughter
Your rage is more than just wrath unchained: it is life at its
most painful and pleasurable. The thrill that fills your mind
pulses in time with your heart, flooding the air with the red
mist of bloodshed. You are not alone on this path, for countless
gods of warfare and carnage offer this pleasure to their howling,
reveling devotees. All that is required in return is debauched
indlugence, and those like you are all to eager to partake. The
gaze of these dark divinities fills the air with crimson fog,
driving all within mad with rage. Bare your teeth in a joyful
grin, for the scarlet slaughter is about to begin.
Red Mist
When you choose this path at 3rd level, your devotion to the
gods of carnage brings forth an unnatural fog of war. When
you use your Reckless Attack feature while raging, you can
cause the air within 15 feet of you to fill with a thick red mist
that surrounds you until the start of your next turn. Creatures
within the mist have advantage on attack rolls, but can’t see
out of the mist, and creatures outside the mist can’t see into the
mist.
Revel in Slaughter
Also at 3rd level, your deadly impulse allows you to maintain
momentum. When you reduce a creature to 0 hit points, you
can choose to expend and roll one of your hit dice, regaining
hit points equal to the number rolled plus your Constitution
modifer (minimum 1) and your rage damage bonus.
Dance With Death
At 6th level, the thrill that drives you pushes you to risk your
life with every strike. When you hit a creature with a melee
weapon attack, but before you roll to determine the damage
dealt, you can choose to allow the creature you hit to make an
attack targeting you. If the creature hits you and deals damage,
you can have your attack deal an amount of damage to the
creature equal to the creature’s damage roll plus your Strength
modifier and rage damage bonus. If this is enough to reduce the
creature to 0 hit points, you can negate the damage you would
take from the creature’s attack.
Lost in Madness
At 10th level, your insatiable bloodlust corrupts the air, leaving
your enemies with no escape. When a hostile creature is within
your Red Mist, it can’t voluntarily exit the mist unless it has
damaged you during the current turn.
Murderous Mastery
At 14th level, you are consumed entirely when you indulge in
bloodshed. When you regain hit points while raging, you can
move up to 15 feet and make a single attack with a weapon you
are wielding without using your action.
Roguish Archetype:
Dancing Blade
There is a certain beauty in a beguiling dance, and you have
learned to capture it. Revelation and deception, misdirection
and presentation all come together to create the perfect blend
of stylish combat. You are a practicioner of this uncanny art,
turning soft silk and deadly blades into a dangerous whirlwind
that leaves observers breathless in more ways than one. The
battlefield is your stage, your adversaries your audience, and
the duel your masterpiece.
Stylish Steps
At 3rd level, you hone your body to move with greater alacrity
during the most dangerous moments. During your turn, you
can treat other creatures as terrain, freely moving on them or
through their spaces regardless of their size, and you can draw
or stow any number of weapons. If you end your turn in the
space of another creature, you safely move to the nearest open
space of your choosing.
Additionally, once during each of your turns when you
make an attack with a melee weapon, you can immediately
move up to 15 feet without provoking opportunity attacks.
Steel Behind Silk
Also at 3rd level, you can conceal yourself by utilizing
distraction and misdirection. You can attempt to hide even
while you are not obscured, provided there is another creature
that is not hostile to you within 10 feet of you that is visible to
creatures you are trying to hide from.
Whirling Leap
At 9th level, your supreme agility turns every vaulting stride
into a deadly strike. When you take the Dash action, your jump
height and distance increase to equal half your movement
speed for the remainder of your turn. If you make an attack
while falling at least 5 feet, you do not need to have advantage
on the roll to use your Sneak Attack, and you take no damage
from the fall.
Velvet Chain
At 13th level, your movements captivate your audience. When
you take the Disengage action while within 10 feet of a hostile
creature, that creature must make a Wisdom saving throw with
a DC equal to 8 + your Dexterity modifier + your proficency
bonus. If it fails, all creatures other than you are invisible to it
until the start of your next turn.
Veil of Death
At 17th level, your final flourish heralds the end of the dance.
When you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can strike a
vital blow, leaving the creature marked for 1 minute. When the
mark expires, you can choose to have the creature take necrotic
damage equal to three times your Sneak Attack damage.
Once you cause damage in this way, you can’t do so again
until you finish a short or long rest.
