Base Class: Blood Hunter (archived)
This order is similar to the other orders, however this order is more intent on finding a cure to the curse of undeath, rather then just purging said creatures. This order imbues a slightly different version of the Hunter's Bane potion, said to curse whoever survives it with long life and an aura of undying. Some say the leaders of the order are themselves undying.
Rite of the Dead
When you join this order at 3rd level, you learn the esoteric rite Rite of the Dead (detailed below).
Rite of the Dead. Your rite damage is necrotic type. The damage you suffer from activating this rite is halved.
If you hit an Undead creature with your Rite of the Dead, it suffers additional necrotic damage equal to your Wisdom modifier.
This rite overcomes any resistances or immunity's to necrotic damage an undead creature may have.
Upon reaching 11th level, any creature you hit with your Rite of the Dead suffers this additional necrotic damage.
Acursed Spirit
Beginning at 7th level, your cursed blood allows you to recognize cursed creatures with relative ease. You gain advantage with survival checks and perception checks to track or find undead, additionally you gain resistance to necrotic damage if you don't already have it.
Cursed Strike
Upon reaching 11th level, you’ve learned to channel the curse in your veins to make a devastating attack. When you use the Attack action on your turn, you can expend a use of this feature to forgo one of your attacks to gain advantage on your attack. If the attack hits, you take the highest number on the damage die for your weapon, additionally the target takes necrotic damage equal to your blood hunter level, and you gain temporary hit points equal to the total damage dealt.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.
Acursed Trade
At 15th level, as a bonus action, you can embrace your cursed nature and increase you stats for a cost. Choose one of your stats, that stat is reduced by one for the next minute, and any two stats of your choice increase by 1 for the next minute. You can use this ability once per short rest.
Undying Form
Upon reaching 18th level, whenever you drop to 0 hit points, you can release control of your curse and continue to fight. Your body remains unconscious and do not roll death saving throws as normal. On your next turn, your body rises from the grave under the effect of your curse. Your body has temporary hit points equal to your blood hunter level plus your Wisdom modifier. If your body loses this hp, it dies. Your body will move to attack the closest living creature and cannot discern friend from foe. Your body has access to all of your abilities and suffers no damage from your Crimson Rite feature.
