WE START WALKING DEEPER INTO THE TWILIT FOREST.
The night gets shadier and shadier after every passing moment and
we only occasionally catch glimpses of moonlight.

As we continue in our path, my eyes fixate on Vae’ren’s blade –

I only notice it now but it appears to be severely worn down. “Vae,
you should get your sword repaired soon, it might not do you any
good anymore at its state,” I comment.

He examines it curiously for a bit and then glances passively at

me. “What’s the point in fixing things when they will all eventually
get messed up again?” the elf claims in reason and then continues
on, scanning the surroundings.

I pause briefly and then shake my head in disapproval at the

ranger. “Goodness, that’s an awfully twisted sense of logic there,
friend.” Then I recall how this fellow always tends to exhibit an odd
way of looking at things.

~ James Jenkins, Into the Dark

RANGER
Rough and wild looking, a human stalks alone through the
shadows of trees, hunting the orcs he knows are planning a
raid on a nearby farm, Clutching a shortsword in each hand,
he becomes a whirlwind of steel, cutting down one enemy
after another.
An elf cruises past the sky on top of a giant eagle,
rushing swiftly towards the black dragon in midair. As she
leaps off the feathered creature, the beast mystically infuses
itself onto her spear. And with one targeted throw, she sends
it piercing through the dense clouds and into the dragon’s
thick scales, as it screeches its dying wail.
Chasing past the dense forest, a half-elf draws back
his bow to loose an arrow at the ogre – sending the large
creature tumbling down. As he moves around the thick
woods, his quarry starts cowering in fear from its phantom
predator. And by the time the ogre noticed, a blur of arrows
had already came flying towards it from every direction.
Far from the bustle of cities and towns, past the
hedges that shelter the most distant farms from the terrors of
the wild, amid the dense-packed trees of trackless forests
and across wide and empty plains, rangers keep their
unending watch.

LETHAL SKIRMISHERS
Rangers are the guardians of the wilderness; they specialize
in hunting the threats outside of civilization, hordes of
raiders, rampaging giants, wild monstrosities and even
terrible dragons. They are predators of the wild, using stealth
and specialized techniques to hunt down their marks.
Rangers focus their combat training on techniques that are
particularly useful against their specific favored foes.
Attunement to the wilds allows the ranger to harness
magical powers from nature as a druid does. Their spells,
like their combat abilities, emphasize speed, stealth, and the
hunt. The talents and abilities of the ranger come from the
grim desire to protect the borderlands.

LONE WANDERERS
Oftentimes rangers might make a living as hunters, guides or
trackers but their true life is in defending the edges of
civilization from the threats that lurk in the wilds. In some
places, rangers gather in secretive orders or join forces with
druidic circles. Many rangers, however, quest and travel
alone, knowing that when the time the threat comes, they are
the finest at eliminating their targets, be it bands of orcs or
dragons.
This fierce independence makes rangers well suited to
adventuring, since they are accustomed to life far from the
comforts of a dry bed and a hot bath. Rangers don’t often
fancy adventurers accustomed to city life; whining about the
difficulties of the wild and always longing for the
comfortable life within civilization. But every now and then
they find their selves adventurers who can handle their own
in a fight, some who are worth the extra affliction. City folk
might not know ways of the wild but they certainly make up
for it with their own talents.
CREATING A RANGER
As you create your ranger character, consider the nature of
the training that gave you your particular capabilities. Did
you train with a single mentor, wandering the wilds together
until you mastered the ranger's ways? Did you leave your
apprenticeship, or was your mentor slain perhaps by the
same kind of monster that became your favored enemy? Or
perhaps you learned your skills as part of a band of rangers
affiliated with a druidic circle, trained in mystic paths as
well as wilderness lore. You might be self-taught, a recluse
who learned combat skills, tracking, and even a magical
connection to nature through the necessity of surviving in
the wilds.
What's the source of your particular hatred of a certain
kind of enemy? Did a monster kill someone you loved or
destroy your home village? Or did you see too much of the
destruction these monsters cause and commit yourself to
reining in their depredations? Is your adventuring career a
continuation of your work in protecting the borderlands, or a
significant change?
What made you join up with a band of adventurers?
Do you find it challenging to teach new allies the ways of
the wild, or do you welcome the relief from solitude that
they offer?
Quick Build
You can make a ranger quickly by following these
suggestions. First, make Dexterity your highest ability score,
followed by Wisdom. (Some rangers who tend to focus on
two-weapon fighting make Strength higher than Dexterity.)
Second, choose the outlander background.

As a ranger, you gain the following class features:
HIT POINTS
Hit Dice: 2d6 per ranger level
Hit Points at 1st level: 12 + your Constitution modifier
Hit Points at Higher Levels: 2d6 (or 7) + your Constitution
modifier per ranger level after 1st
PROFICIENCIES

equipment provided by your background.
 (a) two shortswords or (b) two martial melee weapons or
(c) a martial weapon and a shield
 (a) a dungeoneer’s pack or (b) an explorer’s pack
 (a) a longbow and a quiver of 20 arrows or (b) a martial
weapon
 Leather armor, herbalism kit
FAVORED ENEMY
Beginning at 1st level, you have significant experience
studying, tracking, hunting, and even talking to a certain
type of enemy.
Choose a type of favored enemy: aberrations, beasts,
celestials, constructs, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends,
giants, monstrosities, oozes, plants, or undead. Alternatively,
you can select two races of humanoid (such as gnolls and
orcs) as favored enemies.
You have advantage on Wisdom (Survival) checks to
track your favored enemies, as well as on Intelligence
checks to recall information about them. You also gain a +2
bonus damage with weapon attacks against your favored
enemy. This damage increases to +3 at 6th level and +4 at
14th level.
When you gain this feature, you also learn one
language of your choice that is spoken by your favored
enemies, if they speak one at all. You choose one additional
favored enemy, as well as an associated language, at 6th and
14th level. As you gain levels, your choices should reflect
the types of monsters you have encountered on your
adventures.
NATURAL EXPLORER
You are particularly familiar with one type of natural
environment and are adept at traveling and surviving in such
regions. Choose one type of favored terrain: arctic, coast,
desert, forest, grassland, mountain, swamp, or the
Underdark. When you make an Intelligence (Investigation,
Nature) or Wisdom (Animal Handling, Perception, Survival)
check related to your favored terrain, your proficiency bonus
is doubled if you are using a skill that you're proficient in, or
you add half your proficiency bonus (rounded down) if you
are not proficient. While traveling for an hour or more in
your favored terrain, you gain the following benefits:
 Difficult terrain doesn't slow your group's travel.
 Your group can't become lost except by magical means.
 Even when you are engaged in another activity while
traveling (such as foraging, navigating, or tracking), you
remain alert to danger.
 If you are traveling alone, you can move stealthily at a
normal pace.
 When you forage, you find twice as much food as you
normally would.
 While tracking other creatures, you also learn their exact
number, their sizes, and how long ago they passed
through the area.
You choose additional favored terrain types at 6th and 10th
level.
FIGHTING STYLE
At 2nd level, you adopt a particular style of fighting as your
specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can't
take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you
later get to choose again.
ARCHERY
You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with ranged
weapons.
DEFENSE
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.
DUELING
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no
other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with
that weapon.
MARINER
As long as you are not wearing heavy armor or using a
shield, you have a swimming speed and a climbing speed
equal to your normal speed, and you gain a +1 bonus to AC.
TWO-WEAPON FIGHTING
When you engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your
ability modifier to the damage of the second attack.
SKIRMISHER’S STEALTH
Beginning at 2nd level, you combine speed and stealth in
combat to make yourself hard to pin down. You are difficult
to detect even if you attack or otherwise take actions that
would normally reveal your presence.
At the start of your turn, pick a creature you are
hidden from. You remain hidden from that creature during
your turn, regardless of your actions or the actions of other
creatures. As a bonus action at the end of your turn, you can
make a Dexterity (Stealth) check to hide again if you fulfill
the conditions needed to hide. Otherwise, creatures are
aware of you at the end of your turn.
Also, you can’t be tracked by nonmagical means,
unless you choose to leave a trail.
SPELLCASTING
By the time you reach 2nd level, you have learned to use the
magical essence of nature to cast spells, much as a druid
does. See chapter 10 for the general rules of spellcasting and
chapter 11 for the ranger spell list.
SPELL SLOTS
The Ranger table shows how many spell slots you have to
cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these
spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher.
You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long
rest.
For example, if you know the 1st-level spell animal
friendship and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot
available, you can cast animal friendship using either slot.
SPELLS KNOWN OF 1ST LEVEL AND HIGHER
You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the
ranger spell list. The Spells Known column of the Ranger
table shows when you learn more ranger spells of your
choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you
have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 5th level in
this c1ass, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this c1ass, you
can choose one of the ranger spells you know and replace it
with another spell from the ranger spell list, which also must
be of a level for which you have spell slots.
SPELLCASTING ABILITY
Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your ranger spells,
since your magic draws on your attunement to nature. You
use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your
spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom
modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a ranger spell
you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Wisdom modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Wisdom modifier
RANGER ARCHETYPE
At 3rd level, you choose an archetype that you strive to
emulate: Hunter, Sentinel, or Stalker, all detailed at the end
of the class description. Your choice grants you features at
3rd level and again at 7th, 11th, and 15th level.
PRIMEVAL AWARENESS
Beginning at 3rd level, you can use your action to focus
your awareness on the region around you. For 1 minute, you
can sense whether the following types of creatures are
present within 1 mile of you (or within up to 6 miles if you
are in your favored terrain): aberrations, celestials, dragons,
elementals, fey, fiends, and undead. This feature doesn't
reveal the creatures' location or number.
You may use this feature a number of times equal to
your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of once). When you
finish a long rest you regain all expended uses.
ABILITY SCORE IMPROVEMENT
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and
19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice
by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice
by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above
20 using this feature.
KEEN SIGHT
When you reach 4th level, you have a +1 bonus to Wisdom
(Perception) checks and Intelligence (Investigation) checks.
This ability increases to +2 at 10th level, +3 at 14th level
and +4 at 18th level.
EXTRA ATTACK
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once,
whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.
LAND’S STRIDE
Starting at 8th level, moving through nonmagical difficult
terrain costs you no extra movement. You can also pass
through nonmagical plants without being slowed by them
and without taking damage from them if they have thorns,
spines, or a similar hazard.
In addition, you have advantage on saving throws
against plants that are magically created or manipulated to
impede movement, such those created by the entangle spell.
HIDE IN PLAIN SIGHT
Starting at 10th level, you can spend 1 minute creating
camouflage for yourself. You must have access to fresh
mud, dirt, plants, soot, and other naturally occurring
materials with which to create your camouflage.
Once you are camouflaged in this way, you can try to
hide by pressing yourself up against a solid surface, such as
a tree or wall, that is at least as tall and wide as you are. You
gain a +10 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth) checks as long as
you remain there without moving or taking actions. Once
you move or take an action or a reaction, you must
camouflage yourself again to gain this benefit.
SURVIVAL INSTINCTS
At 11th level, you can perform feats of extraordinary
stamina and endurance, and recovering more quickly from
injuries. You gain advantage on Constitution saving throws
to avoid exhaustion.
Additionally, when you spend any Hit Die to regain
hit points during a short rest, you regain additional 1d6 hit
points + your ranger level.
UNCONVENTIONAL
Starting at 13th level, you have mastered the art of
improvised combat. If you move at least 10 feet straight
toward a Large or smaller creature, you can force yourself
and the creature to be prone. You make a Dexterity
(Acrobatics) check against the creature contested by its
Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If you
succeed, you and the creature become prone.
Additionally, while you are prone, you do not have
disadvantage on attack rolls from being prone.
FERAL SENSES
At 18th level, you gain preternatural senses that help you
fight creatures you can’t see. When you attack a creature
you can’t see, your inability to see it doesn’t impose
disadvantage on your attack rolls against it.
You are also aware of the location of any invisible
creature within 30 feet of you, provided that the creature
isn’t hidden from you and you aren’t blinded or deafened.
FOE SLAYER
At 20th level, you become an unparalleled hunter of your
enemies. Once on each of your turns, you can add your
Wisdom modifier to the attack roll or the damage roll of an
attack you make. You can choose to use this feature before
or after the roll, but before any effects of the roll are applied.
RANGER ARCHETYPES
The ideal of the ranger has three classic expressions: the
Hunter, the Sentinel and the Stalker.
HUNTER
Emulating the Hunter archetype means accepting your place
as a bulwark between civilization and the terrors of the
wilderness. As you walk the Hunter's path, you learn
specialized techniques for fighting the threats you face, from
rampaging ogres and hordes of orcs to towering giants and
terrifying dragons.
HUNTER’S PREY
At 3rd level, you gain one of the following features of your
choice.
Colossus Slayer. Your tenacity can wear down the most
potent foes. When you hit a creature with a weapon attack,
the creature takes an extra ld8 damage if it's below its hit
point maximum. You can deal this extra damage only once
per turn. At 11th level, the next attack roll against the
creature that you dealt extra damage has advantage.
Giant Killer. When a Large or larger creature hits or
misses you with an attack, you can use your reaction to
attack that creature immediately after its attack, provided
that you can see the creature and it is within range of your
weapon. At 11th level, you can move up to half your speed
during your reaction, this movement does not provoke
opportunity attacks.
Horde Breaker. Once on each of your turns when you
make a weapon attack, you can make another attack with the
same weapon against a different creature that is within 5 feet
of the original target and within range of your weapon. At
11th level, you can make your attack to a different creature
that is within 30 feet instead of 5 feet.
DEFENSIVE TACTICS
At 7th level, you gain one of the following features of your
choice.
Escape the Horde. Opportunity attacks against you are
made with disadvantage.
Multiattack Defense. When a creature hits you with an
attack, you gain a +4 bonus to AC against all subsequent
attacks made by that creature for the rest of the turn.
Steel Will. You have advantage on saving throws against
being frightened.
MULTIATTACK
At 11th level, you gain one of the following features of your
choice.
Volley. You can use your action to make a ranged attack
against any number of creatures within 10 feet of a point you
can see within your weapon's range. You must have
ammunition for each target, as normal, and you make a
separate attack roll for each target.
 Whirlwind. You can use your action to make a melee
attack against any number of creatures within range of your
weapon, with a separate attack roll for each target.
SUPERIOR HUNTER’S DEFENSE
At 15th level, you gain one of the following features of your
choice.
Evasion. You can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain
area effects, such as a red dragon's fiery breath or a lightning
bolt spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows
you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half
damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the
saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.
Stand Against the Tide. When a hostile creature misses
you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction to force
that creature to repeat the same attack against another
creature (other than itself) of your choice.
Uncanny Dodge. When an attacker that you can see hits
you with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the
attack's damage against you.
SENTINEL
The Sentinel archetype embodies a connection between you
and the spirit of nature – an ideal forged by your link to the
wild. Your bond with nature grants you abilities that you can
use to fight the monstrous foes that threaten civilization and
the wilderness alike. Emulating the Sentinel archetype
means committing yourself to this ideal, working in
partnership with the spirit of nature and its magic.
SPIRIT COMPANION
At 3rd level, you choose a path that determines the ideals
you personify. The path you choose shapes your spirit
companion. As a bonus action, you can command your spirit
companion to materialize as a living creature. Your spirit
companion manifests as an animal for 1 minute or until its
hit points drop to 0. You can also dismiss it as a bonus
action.
The manifested creature gains a bonus to attack rolls,
damage rolls, AC and saving throws equal to your Wisdom
modifier. Its hit point maximum equals half its normal
maximum plus half your hit point maximum.
The manifested creature takes its turn on your
initiative and acts simultaneously with you. You control its
actions, even if you are unconscious or otherwise unable to
act. You cannot change your choice of spirit path.
Guardian. By following the path of the Guardian, you
protect the natural world from creatures that would despoil
it. Your spirit companion takes the form of a brown bear.
Seeker. By taking up the Seeker path, you are drawn into
the unknown wilds far from civilization in search of lost
treasures, forgotten evil and sites of primal magic. Your
spirit companion takes the form of a giant eagle.
Predator. As a ranger of the Predator path, you prowl the
wilderness in search of vile creatures that must be slain
before they wreak havoc on the natural world. Your spirit
companion takes the form of a dire wolf.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until
you finish a long rest.
SPIRIT LINK
Beginning at 3rd level, you gain the ability to harness the
magical power of the spirit of nature. As a bonus action, you
can invoke the enchantment of your spirit path to gain its
features.
Guardian. You can choose yourself or a creature that you
can see within 30 feet of you. The chosen creature gains
temporary hit points equal to 2d6 + your Wisdom modifier.
This lasts until the temporary hit points are depleted or you
finish a short or long rest.
Seeker. You invoke your spirit and choose a creature that
you can see within 60 feet of you. Until the end of your next
turn, all attacks made against the creature have advantage.
Predator. Choose yourself or a creature you can see within
30 feet of you. The next time the chosen creature hits with a
weapon attack, the target of the attack takes extra slashing
damage equal to 2d6 + your Wisdom modifier. This feature
can only affect one creature at a time.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until
you finish a short or long rest.
MYSTICAL FURY
At 7th level, your attacks and the attacks of your spirit
companion count as magical for the purpose of overcoming
resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.
IMBUED SOUL
Starting at 11th level, you become more attuned to your
spirit companion. As a bonus action, you can fuse your
animal companion to your weapon or piece of ammunition,
if it is material and it is within 60 feet of you. You gain extra
damage to your next weapon attack equal to your Wisdom
modifier (minimum of 1) and an additional effect depending
on your spirit path.
Guardian. On a hit, the creature must make a Constitution
saving throw against your ranger spell save DC. On a failed
save, the target is stunned until the end of your next turn.
Seeker. You have a +10 bonus to the attack roll and on a
hit, the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving
throw against your ranger spell save DC or have
disadvantage on its attack rolls until the end of your next
turn.
Predator. Your attack scores a critical on a roll of 18-20.
On a hit, the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving
throw against your ranger spell save DC. On a failed save,
the target cannot attack you or your spirit companion until
the end of your next turn.
Once the attack hits, your spirit companion emerges
from the weapon or ammunition and can take its turn, it
appears on the nearest unoccupied space next to the target.
You must then finish a long rest to use this feature again.

 EDITOR’S NOTE:

I would like to extend my sincerest apologies for still being unable to

create a Beast Master subclass. As you all know, the concept of
having a secondary character in the game is truly difficult to balance
while being fundamentally satisfied.

In later releases, we may be able to find a way around it that is

fair and fun. However, for the meantime, please make do with what is
in here.

Feel free to change some concepts and features in your games,

as you deem fit with your setting and as agreed by your Dungeon
Master.

Please email your comments and suggestions to

raven.siegfried@gmail.com. We would most definitely love to hear
what you think and will truly appreciate your ideas for
improvements.

Thank you for your support and acceptance!

 Into the Hunt
The Ranger class has always been a part of the
Dungeons & Dragons community since the
earliest editions. However, over time it has
become a victim of revisions that have made it,
and as feedback from players says, lag behind
other classes in terms of potential and style.

We wish to lift up the spirit of the ultimate

hunter, thus, we bring you a package of new
options, features, and ideas for you to use in your
character creation. With this, you can further
immerse yourself in the world of Dungeons &
Dragons and relive the wonders of being a true
ranger.

Monsters and vile creatures lurk the Planes of

Existence. Will you join into the hunt?

This material is intended as a supplement or

variant to the already existing amazing ranger
class. The designs here do not aim to replace
the ranger in the Player’s Handbook®, but
rather merely serve as an option for players
who wish to experience something different.
