Simic Hybrid Animal Enhancements (5e Race Variant)
This page contains homebrewed supplemental options to the Simic Hybrid's Animal Enhancement trait.
1st Level Enhancements[edit]
Echolocation[edit]
As an action during your turn, you can make a loud clicking noise with your tongue and gain a tremorsense radius of 30 feet. This effect ends once you move, use a bonus action or reaction, another creature uses their reaction while within the radius, or your turn ends. You do not gain this benefit if you are deafened, and you cannot use this action if you are incapable of speaking.
Pouncing Lunge[edit]
As a bonus action on your turn, you can jump up to 30 feet using 15 feet of your movement. You can't do so again for the next minute.
Superior Darkvision[edit]
Your darkvision’s effective range increases to 120 feet.
5th Level Enhancements[edit]
Scorpion Sting[edit]
A long prehensile or segmented tail tipped with a stinger protrudes from the base of your spine. It is a natural weapon that you can choose to attack with whenever you would make a weapon attack. On a hit, it deals 1d6 piercing damage and the target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against a DC of 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus. It takes 1d8 poison damage on a failed save. This damage increases to 1d8 piercing and 2d8 poison when you reach 11th level, and to 1d10 piercing and 3d8 poison at 17th level.
Many-Legged[edit]
You have between four and eight additional, segmented legs, like those of an insect or arachnid. Regardless of how many legs you have, you have advantage on Strength and Dexterity ability checks and saving throws to resist being pushed or knocked prone. Your speed also increases by 5 feet.
