Way of the Crimson Lotus (5e Subclass)

Way Of The Crimson Lotus

Fighter Subclass

“	Find balance inside Chaos, Let your swords flow as if dancing, Take down an army before the blossoms hit the bloodied ground.	”
—An ancient crimson lotus master

The crimson lotus sect was an ancient taoist sect specializing in dual katana techniques. Swift and deadly, rumors say that their combos carve lotuses on the ground and make cherry blossoms bloom. The sect has died long ago and the masters take new disciplines in hopes of a new dawn for the sect. The world has yet to see the pinacle of their potential and, as the masters die one by one, may never get to do so.
