Crimson Rogue

A Rogue that bends the blood of his enemies!

Blood Points

Starting at 3rd level when you choose this subclass, you have 4 blood points, and you gain more as you reach higher levels, you always have maximum blood points equal to 1 + your Rogue Level. You can never have more blood points than 1 + your Rogue Level. You regain all spent blood points when you finish a long rest.

You can regain blood points using a bonus action, you can take 1d4 psychic damage and regain a blood point, you can do this 7 times during a bonus action.
If you use a bonus action to regain blood points to much, your DM might ask you to roll on any of the madness tables in the Dungeons Masters Guide.

 

Crimson Siphon

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you can when you make a successful melee attack you can choose to siphon hit points from the enemy that you hit. You can spend as many blood points as you want, for each blood point you get to roll a 1d4 and steal that amount of hit points from your enemy.

Bend Will

As an action, you can spend 4 blood points to make a creature roll a constitution saving throw (DC = 10 + Charisma Modifier), on a failed save the creature is stunned, on a success the creature is incapacitated.

Alternatively, if you have hit the creature with a melee hit this round, you can spend your bonus action to use Bend Will.

You can also spend an extra 4 blood points to use this as a reaction.

Crimson Resurrection

When you reach 17th level, you gain the ability to cast the Resurrection spell, to do so you must expend 15 blood points and be in an area filled with life (for example a forest).
