Something wicked this way comes

Death, Doom, and Gloom. Beware all ye who open this tome. No tales of joy will be found
here. Within these words lies tales of adventurers who have embarked upon a journey far
darker than most could fathom. The lore of these classes contains those who would
entrude on others most private sanctums, those who revel in the decay left from past
lives, those cursed by the moon and turned into beasts, and those who have been cursed by
undeath since birth. Abandon all hope, ye who read onward.

An InXanity Supplemental Material

Dream Thief Rougish Archetype
No lock is harder to pick than the mind of the unwilling. You
have a special knack however, you understand the mind in
ways that others could only dream of, quite literally in fact.
You understand the psyche of intelligent creatures and find
their dreamscapes ripe for the picking. Their secrets, fears,
history, nothing escapes your prying eyes or nimble fingers.

Dreamscape Intrusion
You begin to understand the dreamscape of others and now
find yourself able to traverse it freely. You no longer need to
sleep and can enter a nightly 4 hour trance to rest and
recover your abilities.
Starting at 3rd level, you may use this time in trance to
enter the dreamscape of a creature that you have seen and
spoken with before. While entering the dream of your target
they see you as yourself, or you may make a deception check
to have them see you as some other being from their memory
with which you are also familiar. While in the dreamscape
you may interact with the dreaming creature to implant an
idea or suggestion into the creature’s mind.
Once per dream, you may implant a single suggestion in
the target. You cause them to believe this idea comes from
their own subconscious by making a deception or persuasion
check vs the creatures insight. A success means that when
the target awakens, they act on the idea as if it was their own,
possibly swaying judgment or altering a planned course of
action. If the target sees you as hostile then you make this
check at disadvantage.
You may use double the standard amount of time in a
creatures dream to gain advantage on your persuasion or
deception check. As a result, if the target sees you as hostile
then this check is made as normal, instead of at disadvantage.
A creature must be within 1 mile of you and asleep for this
ability to work. You can only intrude on a creature's
dreamscape once per 24 hours. In addition, the creature in
question must have an Intellience score of 4 or higher for this
ability to take effect.
Initially, a single use of this ability takes 4 hours and you
may only effect 1 creature per long rest. Your skill with this
ability increases as your level increases, seen in the table
below. You must speak with a creature before you can use
this ability on them.

Blade of Nightmares
From 9th level on, you may now cast the scry spell as a ritual
once before you enter your nightly trance. This ability
functions as the spell, except you see the dreamscape of the
creature in question, with no need to interact with the target
creature inside their dream.
Now, you also glean much more useful knowledge of your
targets after visiting their dream. After scrying on the
sleeping creature or interacting with a creature through
Dream Intrusion, you learn their deepest fears, their dark
secrets coating your blade. Anytime after entering the
dreamscape of a creature your sneak attack damage is now
treated as psychic damage for that target. In addition, the
unsettling feeling of deja vu your opponent gets from you
gives you advantage on your attack rolls against them.
A dream or a Memory?
At 13th level your ability to enter the dreams of other
creatures now extends to tampering with the very memories
that make up their personality. While interacting with a
creature in Dream Intrusion you may implant or modify
memories (as per the spell Modify Memory) once per long
rest. This ability functions as the spell, except that the events
in question must take place within the last year, and must
have a duration of 24 hours or less. Other restrictions of
Dream Intrusion still apply.
Death in a Dream
Beginning at 17th level, as your enter the dreamscape of
another creature you may attempt to end your target before
they wake. While in the dream of the target creature you may
inflict your normal sneak attack damage to them. When they
wake they take 1 level of exhaustion and their maximum
health is reduced by the amount of your sneak attack while
they have any levels of exhuastion. If your target dies as a
result of this damage in their sleep then they never wake and
die within the next 24 hours with no visible wounds.
Circle of Decay Druid
Death is an integral part of living, but overturn any stump or
corpse and you will see a thriving universe of life. Small
creatures scurry to and fro, mushrooms thrive, flowers
blossom in the fresh fertilizer. Each death lends to to creating
new life, and no creature understands this more thoroughly
than those Druids who follow the Circle of Decay.

Ambrosial Fruit
At 2nd level you learn how to harness death to bring vitality
to those in need. If you have access to the body of a humanoid
or beast, deceased in the last 12 hours, you may grow a small
plant from it that bears healing fruits. Each of these
Ambrosial Fruits function as berries from the Goodberry
spell, however each heals 1d6 health. You produce ½ your
Wisdom modifier of fruits from a small corpse, a number
equal to your Wisdom modifier from a medium corpse, or 1.5
times your Wisdom modifier (rounded down on each
occasion) from a large corpse. You may use this ability once
per short or long rest. These fruits rot and begin to grow
plants native to the area you are currently in after 8 hours.
The fruits' healing benefit increases to 1d8 at 6th level,
1d10 at 10th level, and 1d12 at 14th level.

Scales of Balance
For every action there is an opposite reaction. You
understand that any use of Healing or Necrotic energy
creates its opposite somewhere else. At 6th level your powers
now allow you to bring forth that opposite reaction and bring
it to you. Any time you use a spell that heals or inflicts
necrotic damage you may use your reaction to inflict ½ that
value of the opposite condition on a creature within 30ft that
you can see.
For example, if you use Inflict Wounds to deal 11 damage
you may use your reaction to heal an ally for 5 points,
provided you can see the ally and that they are within 30ft.
Sense of Vitality
Beginning at 10th level you are now able to see how close
those around you are to the twilight of death. You can spend a
bonus action to open your senses, studying allies and
enemies, after which you can tell if they are above or below ½
their total health. This sense last for the one minute. In
addition, while using this sense you can reroll 1s on a healing
spell, provided the target is above half health or a Necrotic
damage spell, provided the enemy is below half health. You
can use this ability a number of times equal to your Wisdom
modifier per long rest.
Final use of the Fallen
No life is lost in vain, no suffering without blessing. You may
now use the fallen to aid you in your path. If a humanoid has
died within the last turn you may use your bonus action to
create a burst of energy from the fallen body. You decide
whether the burst is a healing or Necrotic burst. Regardless
of your choice, the burst has a 15ft radius and heals or
damages for a number of d8s equal to your Wisdom modifier.
If the burst deals Necrotic damage, those affected may make
a Charisma saving throw against your spellcasting modifier
for half damage. You may use this ability a number of times
equal to half your Wisdom modifier per long rest.
Crypt Tainted Sorcerous Origin
Some are born to be damned. Maybe you were a still born, or
perhaps your family resided too close to a tomb rife with
restless spirits. Whatever your origin, the foul taint of
necromancy found its way to you and twisted your body,
deciding your future for you. A Crypt Tainted Sorcerer is easy
to spot up close; unnatural eyes and pale withered skin give
them an unhealthy if not outright unsettling appearance. For
you, life is but a passing moment.

14th Vitality beyond Death
Blurring the line of the Living
You live in the hazy line between the living and the dead.
Never at home among the living but left stranded amongst
those who have passed along. You see the distinction but do
not truly understand its purpose. Beginning at 1st level, you
are able to alter the effects of healing or Necrotic spells you
cast a number of times equal to ½ your Charisma modifier. If
a spell is meant to inflict Necrotic damage, you may instead
make it heal the targeted creature or vice versa.
In addition you gain Darkvision out to 120ft as your eyes
develop an eerie colored glow.
Undead Magnetism
Starting at 6th level you are now able to pull necromancy
spells to you, and this magnetism has boosted your defenses
against the necrotic arts. You may now use your reaction to
make yourself, and only yourself, the target of a spell that
deals Necrotic damage if the initial target of the spell is
within 30ft of you. You also gain resistance to Necrotic
damage as you deal with necrotic forces constantly being
pulled in your direction.
In addition you may now add Animate Dead to your list of
spells known.
Dominate the Damned
At 14th level your ability to sway the dead begins to manifest.
A number of times per day equal to your proficiency modifier
you may attempt to dominate an undead as an action. You
make a spell attack against the spell DC of the caster who
created it and if you succeed, the undead now views you as an
ally and will follow simple commands given to it. You may
never dominate a number of undead greater than your
Charisma modifier at any given time. An undead must be
within 30ft, in eyesight, and have a CR equal to ½ your
proficiency modifier or less for this ability to work.
Vitality beyond death
Your corrupted soul has now given you the ability to restore
vitality to those who have already been revived as undead.
Beginning at 18th level you may use a healing spell on an
undead even if it states that the ability does not affect undead
creatures.
In addition, your Blurring the Lines of the Living ability
may now be used on spells cast by other creatures, provided
that they are in your line of sight and are within 100ft.

Cleaving Follow-through
In the bloodlust of battle you lose yourself in animalistic glee,
and one body quickly leads to another. At 6th level, while
raging, if you reduce an enemy to 0 health you are able to use
your reaction to follow-through with an additional attack on a
nearby enemy. If an enemy is not within 5ft of the original
target you may use any remaining movement to get to a new
foe.
Savage Display
Your ferocity on the battlefield knows no bounds and is an
unsettling sight for your foes to see. While raging, after
