Order of the Ghost (5e Subclass)
From D&D Wiki
Order of the Ghost[edit]
"They won't see or remember it coming." Art by Sean Tay. [1] |
A middle aged elf stands above the orcish camp, his streamlined crossbow aimed steadily down at the door of the chieftains tent. A small rustle, the flap begins to open, the blue hue descending over his vision as the orc walks out, his neck fully exposed…
A small silent thunk from the crossbow, a whistling as the bolt flies through the thin evening air, and a small cloud of mist as the Chieftain’s neck explodes into a fine, bloody mist.
The Ghost is one of the most elusive and exclusive orders among the Mystics of the realms. Secretive in their workings yet devastating in their actions, a noble house with coin or resources combined with a capabilities of a Ghost can easily decapitate an enemy or get any information from a captive. While expensive, a Ghost will honour a deal as long as their life is not at stake.

Streamlined Weapon[edit]
Starting at the 3rd level, you can psychically link with your weapon, making it even more deadlier in you hands. Choose one weapon you have proficiency with.
