Reaper, Variant (5e Subclass)
|
This page is incomplete and/or lacking flavor. Reason: What does it mean for a creature to be in close combat with an ally? Intermediate armor doesn't exist in 5e, much less mastery of it. Undead isn't a subtype. The consti mod doesn't exist in 5e either. What is a common or war weapon? Missing SRD links. 07:20, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

Reaper[edit]
Rogue Subclass
The Reaper is a fearsome assassin considered by many to be the ultimate opponent one will ever encounter. Most of the time, no one survives a fight with a Reaper. For many, they are the embodiment of death or its representative.
- Death Scythe
At 3rd level, the Reaper can bond with a scythe. After a one-hour ritual, she becomes a Death Scythe. She gains the magic trait (Regarding resistances) and finesse.
- Sneaky Mowing
At level 3, as long as the opponent is in close combat with an ally or has already suffered an attack this round, the Reaper can perform the sneak attack on the target even without having an advantage. This skill only works for the Death Scythe.
- Skin of Death
At level 3, the character unlocks mastery of intermediate armor, Scythe and War Scythe.
- Death Strike
At 9th level, the character can add his Constitution modifier to the damage of the death scythe. Additionally, he can make two attacks when he uses the attack action with the death scythe.
- Aura of Death
At 13th level, the Reaper can choose to release an aura of death 5 feet around him. Each target suffers necrotic damage equal to the character's level. The undead are healed by the aura. It can be activated or deactivated by a bonus action. The range of the aura increases at 17th level to 10 feet.
- The Reaper
At 17th level, the Reaper reaches a higher stage than a mere mortal. As a result, the Reaper gains the undead subtype. In addition, he gains a +4 to constitution (Maximum 24). In addition, each successful attack with the death scythe restores a number of hit points equal to the consti mod. Also, each attack made with the attack action can benefit from the sneak attack. Finally, the aura of death no longer affects only the creatures you have chosen.
