Rogue Subclass
Blood rogues enjoy cutting up their enemies and using their blood to perform tricks such as inflicting Paralysis or Transforming for next level deception...

- Your Permeation Effect DC = 8 + your Dexterity modifier + your proficiency bonus.
- Paralysis
At 3rd level, on the turn after you have successfully attacked a creature, you may ingest its blood as an action. Upon ingestion, the creature the blood came from is paralyzed for 1d4 turns. The creature may make a Constitution saving throw. On a success, they may reduce the time they are paralyzed by 1d4 turns. After a creature is paralyzed, you must wait a number of turns equal to how long they were paralyzed before paralyzing them again.
- Transformation
At 3rd level, you may transform into any humanoid of the same size category as yourself as an action. This transformation is solely visual and verbal, and does not grant you any of their features. 1 attack's worth of blood that has been consumed within the past 24 hours allows a transformation to last for 1 hour. You may recreate the creature's clothing, but any clothing you are wearing will take priority. This only applies to the creature who's blood you have consumed most recently.
