Base Class: Fighter
The Mistblade fighters are masterful warriors originating from the ocean's depths, renowned for their unparalleled expertise in both navigation and combat within the deepest, most light-deprived realms of the aquatic world. Their exceptional abilities allow them to thrive and excel in environments where visibility is severely limited. Through relentless training and discipline, they have finely tuned their senses and combat skills to transform themselves into formidable adversaries, capable of holding their own even when plunged into utter darkness. These skilled combatants represent the epitome of underwater warriors, wielding their unique prowess to defend their realm and conquer the challenges of the abyss.
Blind Fighting
Starting at 3rd level, you gain the Blind Fighting style. This enhances your senses and combat abilities in darkness:
- You have blindsight with a range of 10 feet, allowing you to perceive your surroundings without relying on sight.
- When in darkness, you can make attacks against creatures that rely on sight without disadvantage.
Mist Walker
At 7th level, you become a master of moving through misty and obscured environments. You gain the following benefits:
- You can move through difficult terrain created by mist, fog, or similar natural elements without impediment.
- You are immune to the effects of naturally occurring fog or mist, including any magical effects that mimic such conditions.
- You have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks when in misty or foggy conditions.
Mistblade Techniques
At 10th level, you learn unique techniques that allow you to strike with precision in the dark:
- *Mistblade Strike:* Once per turn, when you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can expend a superiority die to deal extra damage equal to the roll of that die.
- *Mistwalker's Evasion:* When you make a Dexterity saving throw to avoid damage from an area effect spell, you can use your reaction to move up to half your movement speed without provoking opportunity attacks.
Mist Form
At 15th level, you gain the ability to briefly assume a misty form. Once per short rest, as a reaction to taking damage, you can turn into mist for 1 minute. During this time:
- You become immune to non-magical weapon attacks.
- You have resistance to all damage except force damage.
- You can pass through openings as small as 1 inch wide without squeezing.
You can end this misty form as a bonus action, returning to your normal state.
Master of the Depths
At 18th level, you reach the pinnacle of your mistblade abilities. You can cast the *Control Weather* spell once per long rest without expending a spell slot, specifically to create fog or mist to aid your fighting style. Additionally, your blindsight range increases to 30 feet.
