Unarmored Defence

Beginning at 1st level, your AC bonus equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Consitution modifier

Free Movement

Being able to move freely is vital to you. As such, you may only use weapons with the light or finesse properties.

Discord

Starting at 2nd level, you can manifest Eris' energy into power represented by chaos and fear.

Discord Points

Your level determines the number of points you have, as shown in the Discord Points column of the table. You can regain Discord Points equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of +1) after every short rest, and you regain all your Discord Points after every long rest.

Discord Ability

Charisma is the statistic used to determine the power of your spells.

Discord save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Discord attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Vetical Grace

Starting at 2nd level, you can fall up to 10 feet times 1/2 your level safely. You also can climb faster than normal, climbing no longer costs you extra movement. When making a jump of any type, standing or running, the distance you jump increases by a number of feet equal to your Dexterity modifier.

Spellcasting

When you reach 3rd level, you augment your chaos prowess with the ability to cast spells.

Cantrips.

You learn two cantrips of your choice from the Child of Eris spell list. You learn an additional cantrip of your choice at 10th level.

Spell Slots.

The Child of Eris Spellcasting table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell shield and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast shield using either slot.

Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher.

You know three 1st-level spells of your choice.

The Spells Known column of the Child of Eris Spellcasting table shows when you can learn more spells of 1st level or higher. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 7th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the spells you know with another spell of your choice from the spell list. The new spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability.

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your spells. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Avoidance

At level 6, when a creature hits you with a melee attack, that is not during a surprise round, you may use your reaction to make a Dexterity saving throw with a DC of 15. On a success you take half damage from the attack and the sudden displacement causes a boom that deals 2d4 thunder damage to the attacker. The boom can be heard to a distance of 300ft.

Fury

At 7th level, your anger and fury enhance your attacks making them more destructive than ever. When you make a normal attack, you can spend 1 Discord Point to force the target to make a Strength saving throw equal to your Discord DC. On a failed save, if the target is Medium or smaller they are pushed in the opposite direction to a distance equal to your Strength modifier x 5 ft and are knocked prone. If the target is Large, they are only pushed 5 feet, and if the target is Huge+, they are unaffected. On a successful save, your enemy is pushed only 5 feet and only take the damage from the attack, unless they are Large+, by which they are unaffected.

During a short or long rest, you can spend 1 Discord Point or more up to a max of 10 to enhance a weapon you hold by counting it as magical for 24 hours and giving it a bonus to both the attack rolls and damage rolls equal to a number of Discord points spent. The bonuses count only for you and if somebody else attempts fighting with your weapon of chaos, they have disadvantage to hit. You can only enhance one weapon during the rest, and if you try to enhance another weapon the oldest enhancement will disappear. At 18th level, you can enhance two weapons at the same time.

Battle Grace

Starting at 10th level, you gain the ability to Dodge as a bonus action. In addition, standing up from prone no longer costs any movement.

Shadow Travel

Call of Chaos

At 16th level, you gain the ability to summon fiends from the pits of Tartarus to aid you. You may expend Discord Points to summon a fiend corresponding to your alignment, devils for Lawful, demons for Chaotic, and yugoloths for Neutral. The fiend you summon must have a challenge rating equivalent to twice as many Discord Points you expended for this ability. The fiend will serve you for no more than 3 days and returns to its respective plane after that. It may not summon more fiends to its aid using the summoning variant rule during this time. You may not kill the fiend and if you willingly attempt to harm it, it immediately returns to its plane. You must complete a long rest before using this ability again. You may only have one fiend summoned at a time

Spite

Up to twelve creatures of your choice that you can see within 60 ft of you and that can hear and understand you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become charmed by you for 1 minute. While the targets are charmed in this way, jagged iron chains appear around its neck, and a madness glows in its eyes. The charmed targets must use their actions and movement on each of their turns to make a melee attack against a creature other than itself that you mentally choose. On your subsequent turns, you must use your action to maintain control over the targets, or the effect ends. Also, the each target can make a Wisdom saving throw at the end of each of its turns.
