Boon of the Unnamed. A remnant of the god who held death before the Raven Queen rides your blood, and it still does its old job in miniature: it counts.
The Murmur. You know the instant a creature within 60 feet of you dies or drops to 0 hit points, including who it is and where. You can tell at a glance whether a creature you can see is dead, dying, alive, or undead; undead register to this sense as wrong—a death that didn't take. You have advantage on Wisdom (Medicine) and Intelligence (Investigation) checks made to examine the dead.
The Dead Gods. The remnant in your blood recognizes its own kind. You sense the presence of remnants of dead gods—shards, echoes, and embers, whether carried in a creature or bound in an object—within 1 mile of you: their direction, their approximate distance, and their weight, like a death that never finished ending. With experience you learn to tell one remnant's texture from another's—warmth, weight, tempo—but this sense never gives you a remnant's name or nature. Living gods, their clerics, and the merely god-touched do not register. Exceptionally great remnants may be felt from far beyond a mile, as a note that never resolves.
The Chorus. When 10 or more creatures die within 60 feet of you within the space of a minute, the remnant swells for 1 minute. While it lasts: you are immune to the frightened condition; your melee weapon attacks score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20 against creatures that are below half their hit point maximum; and when a creature dies within 30 feet of you, you can use your reaction to move up to half your speed without provoking opportunity attacks. When the chorus ends, you have disadvantage on Charisma checks for the next hour.
The Stillness. When a catastrophe kills a hundred or more creatures at once within your sensing, the remnant surfaces whole. For the duration of the scene, you can cast Speak with Dead on creatures that died in that event without expending a spell slot or requiring material components, a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. When the Stillness ends, you gain one level of exhaustion.
