Pridestalker[edit]
The Kiilash are a vast tribe of formidable hunters, known throughout the continent for their unparalleled tracking and combat skills. Living deep in dense forests and rugged mountains, the Kiilash hunt the most dangerous beasts to protect their territory and sustain their traditions. Each member of the tribe takes pride in their physical strength, endurance, and combat prowess.
Rengar was born into this tribe, but he stood out from his peers from an early age. Despite not possessing the same brute strength as the other Kiilash, Rengar compensated for this with sharp intelligence and a natural talent for hunting. He carefully observed the behavior of his prey, learning their patterns and weaknesses, and developed clever strategies to take them down.

- Some of your features have additional benefits when Ferocity is active.

Also at 2nd level, you can attack with your brutal savagery. Whenever you make an attack with a melee light weapon or unarmed strike, you can make another attack with a melee light weapon or unarmed strike as a bonus action.

You can make the additional attack without requiring a bonus action.

At 11th level, you can become invisible whenever you are hidden (not only on tall grass or bushes).
Battle Roar[edit]
At 13th level, you can unleash a ferocious roar as an Action. All enemies within 30 feet must succeed on a Constitution saving throw, taking 4d6 psychic damage on a failure and half as much on a success.
This roar emboldens you, allowing you to regain a number of hit points equal to the number rolled on the damage dice.
Once you use this feature, you can't do it again until you finish a short or a long rest.
