Shadowdancer

Shadowdancers exist in the boundary between light and darkness, where they weave together the shadows to become half-seen artists of deception. Unbound by any specified morality or traditional code, shadowdancers encompass a wide variety of adventuring types who have seen the value of the dark. Spellcasters use their abilities to safely cast spells from hiding and then move quickly away, while classes devoted to hand-to-hand combat enjoy the ability to attack foes with the element of surprise. Some even take the name of their kind quite literally, becoming eerie and mysterious performers and dancers, though more often the temptation presented by their talents with deception and infiltration causes shadowdancers to turn to lives of thievery.

At 3rd level you gain the ability to see in dim light as if they were bright light and in Darkness as if it were dim light. to a distance of 120 feet.

Shadow Mastery

You've learned to harness shadows to absorb any sounds you might make. In areas of dim light or darkness, your movement no longer produces any sound unless you wish it to, including when climbing and swimming. Creatures that rely on sound to perceive you treat you as being invisible in such conditions.

In addition, you gain the ability to cast Silence a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once) per long rest. Your spellcasting ability for these spells is Charisma. Your spell save DC is equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier, and when you cast it, you ignore the verbal component of the spell.

Hide in Plain Sight

At 13th level you can make Dexterity (Stealth) checks even when being observed. As long as you are within 30 feet of a shadow other than your own, and not in an area of sunlight.

You are also adept at evading creatures that rely on darkvision. While in darkness, you are invisible to any creature that relies on darkvision to see you in that darkness.
