Fidget Mastery

As you are initiated into the clandestine Fidgeter clan, you gain proficiency with Fidget Spinners and Fidget Guns. Your Fidget Spinners become extensions of your agility and finesse, allowing you to use your Dexterity modifier for attack and damage rolls with them. These fidget toys are not mere distractions but cherished relics imbued with the spirit of rebellion and innovation. They are your tools of both entertainment and combat, representing the creativity and defiance of your clan against the mundane.

Fast Reflexes

Your speed increases by 10 feet. When you take the Dash action, you can move through the space of creatures larger than you without provoking opportunity attacks. Your swift movements and keen reflexes are honed through rigorous training within the hidden enclaves of the Fidgeter clan. From a young age, you navigated the labyrinthine streets of your city, mastering the art of parkour and evading capture. Your agility is not just a physical trait but a manifestation of your clan's philosophy of adapting and thriving in the chaos of the world.

Fidgeter Archetype

Choose a Fidgeter Archetype: 25 Spinner blades or 10 Pop-it Bombs. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 6th, 10th, and 14th levels. As you progress within the Fidgeter clan, you choose a path that aligns with your unique talents and aspirations. Whether specializing in the deadly precision of Spinner Blades or the chaotic mayhem of Pop-it Bombs, your choice reflects your role within the clandestine society of Fidgeters. This decision is not just about combat style but about embracing the core values and traditions of your clan.

Ability Score Improvement

Every “Ability Score Improvement” increases an Ability Score of your choice by two. -When using fidget weapons/fidget toys, you can use two different or same fidget weapons in one action

Extra Attack

With each battle, your proficiency with fidget weapons deepens, allowing you to unleash a flurry of strikes against your foes. Your fluid movements and precise strikes showcase the finesse and agility instilled by years of training as a Fidgeter. This extra attack isn't just about repetition but about harnessing the rhythm and flow of combat that defines your clan's approach to warfare. It represents your ability to maintain control and composure amidst the chaos of battle, striking with calculated precision to overwhelm your adversaries.

Parkour Expertise

You gain proficiency in the Acrobatics skill. Your jumping distance is doubled. This enhancement to your agility is a testament to the urban training you received within the Fidgeter clan. From navigating rooftops to leaping across alleyways, your movements are not just a means of travel but a reflection of your clan's philosophy of fluidity and adaptability in the face of adversity.

Fidget Armor

You can use your bonus action to spin your robe into a makeshift armor, granting you a +2 bonus to your AC until you move or take damage. You can use this feature twice. You regain expended uses when you finish a short or long rest. This ability reflects the resourcefulness of a Fidgeter in combat. With a flick of your wrist, your robe transforms into a protective barrier, shielding you from harm and allowing you to maintain your agility and freedom of movement.

Swift Strike

When you take the Attack action, you can make one additional attack as a bonus action. This rapid assault catches your opponents off guard, overwhelming them with a flurry of strikes that showcase your lightning-fast reflexes and precision. It is a testament to the agility and finesse instilled by years of training within the Fidgeter clan.

Fidget Fury

When you use your Fidget Spinners/Spinner Blades or Pop-it Bombs to make a weapon attack, you can roll one additional damage die. This surge of fidget energy fuels your attacks, infusing them with chaotic power and increasing their potency against your enemies.

Unstable Defense

You have disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws against effects that you can see, such as traps and spells, due to your clumsiness. This only happens when a surprise attack starts a battle. This drawback reflects the unpredictable nature of combat and the inherent risks of relying on fidget toys as weapons. However, it also highlights your ability to adapt and thrive in chaotic situations, turning your weaknesses into strengths when the stakes are high.

Evasive Maneuvers

When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you can use your reaction to take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail. This evasive maneuver reflects your unparalleled agility and reflexes, allowing you to gracefully sidestep danger and emerge unscathed from even the most perilous situations.

Chaotic Spin

You can use your action to spin a fidget spinner rapidly, creating a chaotic whirlwind around you. Three creatures of your choice within 10 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 2d6 slashing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest. This whirlwind of chaos is a manifestation of your mastery over fidget energy, unleashing a devastating attack that cuts through your enemies with reckless abandon.

Master Fidgeter

You have mastered the art of fidgeting. Your speed increases by an additional 10 feet. When you take the Attack action, you can make two additional attacks as a bonus action instead of one. This final evolution of your abilities elevates you to the pinnacle of fidget mastery. With unmatched speed and precision, you dance through the battlefield, striking down your foes with relentless efficiency. You have become a true master of chaos, a living embodiment of the Fidgeter philosophy.
