Blind Savant

Due to an unfortunate accident, magical curse or disability from a young age, you are completely blind. Despite such a disadvantage, you have discovered a means to adapt and even enhance your other senses to an almost superhuman level.

• You have the Blinded condition permanently, automatically failing any ability check that requires sight. However, you don't roll disadvantage on attack rolls or have rolls made against you by a creature at advantage due to the Blinded condition. You also have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that involve sound, smell and touch.
• You gain Blindsight, the ability to sense your surroundings by picking up on subtle vibrations, echoes or movements. If you are able to hear, you know if there are any creatures within 20 feet of you, as well as where the creatures are located. Creatures discovered by this can no longer surprise you. Similarly, you know if there are any traps or hidden passageways within 20 feet of you. You temporarily lose this ability if you are afflicted with the Deafened condition.
• You are completely immune to the effects of any creature attacks or spells that involve sight, i.e Darkness, Petrifying Gaze, Invisibility. However, due to the sensitivity of your hearing you roll at disadvantage for any creature attacks or spells that involve hearing, i.e Banshee Scream, Deafness, Silence.
