Naga-Blooded (5e Subclass)
Naga-Blooded[edit]
Ranger Subclass
As a ranger, you possess a deep magical connection with the natural world. A magical force has snaked its way into you blood, beginning to transmute it and infuse with its strength. Naga Blood is the same that runs through all serpentine and venomous creatures, and now that venom and strength is beginning to run through your own veins.
- Naga-Blooded Spells
Also at 3rd level, you learn an additional spell when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Naga-Blooded Spells table. Each spell counts as a ranger spell for you, but it doesn't count against the number of ranger spells you know.
| Ranger Level | Spells |
|---|---|
| 3rd | cause fear |
| 5th | acid arrow |
| 9th | hypnotic pattern |
| 13th | vitriolic sphere |
| 17th | antilife shell |
- Naga Ammunition
At 3rd level, your blood is infused with the naga power, and you learn to draw your own blood to coat your arrows or bolts in deadly poisons. When you finish a short or a long rest, as a ritual, you can coat up to 10 pieces of ammunition with your own blood. Attacks made by you using the poisoned ammunition cause additional 1d4 poison damage. The damage increases to 1d6 at 7th level, 1d8 at 11th level and 1d10 at 15th level.
If another creature touches this ammunition, the object is corroded by it, rendered useless. If not used, the piece of ammunition is destroyed after 1 hour.
- Venom Blood
Starting at 7th level, your blood is even more infused with venom. You gain resistance to poison damage and immunity to being poisoned.
Additionally, as a bonus action, when you are below your maximum number of hit points you can coat a melee weapon with some of your blood. The next attack made with that weapon until the end of your next turn cause additional poison damage equal to the additional Naga Ammunition poison damage + your Constitution modifier.
- Coiled Strike
At 11th level, you've learned how to seize the perfect opportunity in a fight, and strike with speed and power. You have advantage on attacks made using your reaction, and add both your Strength and Dexterity modifiers to the attack and damage rolls.
- Blood of the Naga
From 15th level, your blood has been so infused with naga blood that you have become more serpentine and possess a new strength. You gain proficiency in Strength saving throws and gain Advantage on Athletics ability checks.
In addition, your body is covered by a serpentine scale, that grant you a bonus equal to your Constitution modifier to your AC while wearing light or no armor.
