Vows of Obsession

Starting at level 1, you can vow to protect another living creature, allowing you to take damage from that creature upon yourself. Choose one creature who you have observed for at least 1 minute. This creature will be your primary obsession. Once you have chosen a creature to be your primary obsession, you cannot change it even if death do you part. When a creature within 60 feet of you with whom you are obsessed or is your primary obsession with would be dealt damage, you may choose to reduce the damage dealt to your obsession by half (rounded down). After determining how much damage your ally is dealt, you are dealt the same amount of damage. So long as your primary obsession is within 60ft of you, you grant them damage reduction equal to your proficiency bonus (Minus 1). You must be conscious to use this feature.

You can determine whether a creature is your obsession regardless of whether they're willing. At the start of combat or after one minute of observation, you may also designate a number of temporary obsessions up to your proficiency bonus. These obsessions can be either friendly creatures or hostile creatures. Temporary obsessions last for 1 hour or can be dismissed at the end of a combat encounter.

A creature is no longer considered a temporary obsession if either you or the aforementioned creature dies, if you willingly end the obsession on your turn, if you designate a new obsession replacing one of your previous ones, or if the duration concludes.

At 5th level, you may also designate objects as your temporary obsessions to ensure you never let them escape you. This allows you to treat the object as if Identify had been cast on it and to identify who has tampered or interacted with the object for the past month, where the object has been, how or who has used it, and if the object is magical or not. Your temporary obsessions now last for 24 hours.

At 11th level, you are always aware of the general direction of your prime obsession and whether or not they are on the same plane as you. Additionally, your temporary obsessions can now last for 1 week.

Watching from Afar

At 1st level, Your obsessive desires allow you to read a creature's essence, allowing you to predict their movements and thoughts and find openings in their defenses while also allowing you to glean a small amount of their lore. Upon selection of this enhancement, you gain the ability to read a creature as a bonus action on your turn. You must make a contested Insight check against their deception to discern their thoughts and body language. On a success, you may choose to learn one of the following pieces of information about them:

• Learn about their Resistances and Immunities, if any.
• Learn about any Vulnerabilities they may have, if any.
• Learn about a potential weakness from a narrative standpoint (at GM's discretion).
• Learn if they have a higher score than you in your choice of Strength, Dexterity, or Constitution.
• Learn about any weapons or items they may have on them or are concealing
• Learn the current hit points of the creature.
• Learn what the creature's AC is.
• Learn what saving throws the creature has. (Does not reveal the modifiers of the saving throws only which they are proficient with)
• Learn what alignment the creature is.
• Learn if the creature is a spellcaster, has KI, or any similar nonmundane resource. You may also instead choose to learn how much of said resource the creature has if you've already identified that they have it.
• Learn about any legendary actions or reactions the creature may possess.
• Learn about 1 feature (or a random feature at GM's discretion) the creature possesses.
• Learn what their current emotional state is.
• Learn what the creature is currently thinking of.
• Learn where they will move and what action they will take on their turn, and if you do so, gain the effects of the dodge action against them until the end of their turn. (This effect requires two pieces of information to be expended)

For every additional 5 that you roll above the creature on the opposed check, you gain one more piece of information to gain. You may use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.

Stalker's Observations

A Yandere's obsession drives her to observe and understand every inch of their obsessions, regardless of their consent. Starting at level 1, you can read the body language of your obsessions within 60 feet, allowing you to tell what mood or emotions they are currently feeling. Your passive perception and passive investigation both increase by +5. You also gain proficiency in Insight and perception. If you already have proficiency in either of these skills, you instead gain expertise. Additionally, you find it much easier to tell whether or not your obsessions are lying to you. You gain advantage to Wisdom (Insight) checks against your obsession, and while a creature is marked as your obsession, you have advantage on checks to track or learn where your obsessions are at any time.

• Dual Wielding

When you take the Attack action while two-weapon fighting, you can make a single additional attack with your off-hand weapon as part of your action instead of your bonus action, adding your ability modifier to the damage of this attack.

Your obsession will take no damage and treat the saving throw as if they passed and will not suffer any additional effects from it.

Additionally, if you pass a Dexterity saving throw with an effect or deal damage on a successful save, you instead take no damage nor suffer ill effects.

• Vital Resonance: When you attack a creature adjacent to one of your obsessions, you can call on your obsession's strength to empower your blows. While you and any of your friendly obsessions are within 5ft of a hostile creature, you both gain the benefits of Pack tactics. Additionally, once per round, whenever you hit a creature, you may add the CR or level of one of your obsessions within range of your damage.

Level 13 Enhancements

• Share the Love: Your obsessive nature has allowed you to call upon your own life force to allow your obsessions to literally feel the love. Whenever you take a short rest with any of your obsessions, any hit dice they roll will heal them for maximum value. Additionally, whenever an obsession receives healing from any of your features, you may expend up to your constitution modifier hit dice to heal them for the result.

• Overly Obsessed: Your ability to create vows is beyond that of a regular yandere. The maximum number of obsessions you may have increases by half of your proficiency bonus (rounded down). You are also now immune to the effects of madness as your addled mind is already too far gone.

• Rapid Recovery: When you are struck by an attack, you are able to call on your stamina to soften the blow. When you are dealt damage by any source, you may use your reaction to immediately roll one of your hit dice, reducing the damage by the result and then healing by the amount rolled.

Level 17 Enhancements

• Exultant Slaughter: You live for combat, and bringing your foes a swift death increases your own vitality. When you kill a creature, you regain five expended hit die. After regaining hit die in this manner, you must finish a long or short rest before you can use this ability again.

• Perfect Self: You know more ways to empower yourself than other yandere, standing head and shoulders over them as a force of nature. You learn three new enhancements, one that you could learn at level 13, level 9, and one from level 5.

• Unbroken Heart: Becoming ever closer to the unkillable heroes of legend, not even death can separate you from your obsessions. Upon selection of this enhancement, you add +4 to your constitution score, and your maximum constitution score becomes 24. You can no longer be instantly killed by any effects nor lose any limbs as a result of any effects such as a vorpal weapon. Finally, If your Senpai were to die, you may spend a short rest with their body to permanently reduce your maximum hit points and Hit die by half to revive them driven by pure love and treat it as if they took a long rest. This reduction can only be undone by a wish spell.
