Daemons Made Flesh

Voidhunters are individuals that were touched by pure Void and survived it. Void being a dimension next to the living world is a home to creatures called Daemons - beings made from feelings, emotions or abstract concepts made flesh. In order to escape their realm, the most curious ones venture into the rifts in reality, often encountering creatures. Some touched by Daemons perish, some turn into abberations but few and unique ones absorb the Daemon essence giving birth to a Voidblessed. Some from the Voidblessed seek to use their power for their means, but the ones that live longest are called Voidhunters. Voidhunters understand that in order to stop the calamity coming from Void they often must fight their own kind and all other threaths that endanger such a delicate reality.

Visions of The End

Every Voidblessed dreams of the endtimes even if the threat cannot come during their liftime, the Daemon essence inside of them has its memories. Visions of collapse, multiple threats - in time even omnious whispers sometimes sounding around. In time the creature infused realizes that those are not meant to harm it, but to prepare for the challenges ahead, even using the visions and the whispers from the Daemon that infused them to its advantage .

Halfdaemon

Starting at 1st level your body becomes closer to peak condition than it ever could. A tatoo like lines appear somewhere on your body as you gain additional 5ft of movement speed and resistance to fire damage.

Combo Action

Beginning at 2nd level you learn how to pull from the Daemon Essence in a stylish manner. You gain pool of Daemon Essence equal to your level in this class plus your Charisma modifier that recharge on your short and long rests. Additionally, during your turn instead of normal actions you can take a Combo Action. During Combo Action you can perform one Combo. This number increases to two at 5th level, three at 10th level and four at 15th level. When you perform a Combo that requires DC, it uses your Charisma modifier.

Combo save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier.

Each Combo has a Daemon Essence cost attached required to perform a Combo and some have a prerequisite that is needed to perform it. If Combo mentions a weapon damage, it uses the weapon you are currently holding for that damage. If a Combo uses Combo Dice it is d4. The dice change as shown in Combo Dice column of the Voidhunter table. You know the following Combos:

Upward Strike

• Prerequisite-Melee Weapon
• Daemon Essence Cost: 1

You attack one creature within the range of your weapon by making an upward strike. If the attack hits the damage is increased by a Combo Die. Additionally due to the Void surrounding your weapon, regardless of the attack hitting, the creature must make a Strength saving throw or it is knocked up 10ft into the air and then falls prone. You can choose to delay the fall until the end of your turn making the creature suspended in the air.
