Heir of Fire and Ashes. Yoshikage has been granted the ability to call upon spirits. Once his health falls below 60 hit points, he tries to summon said spirits. Roll a d6, on a 1-3 he sunmmons 3 Fire Snakes, and on a 4-6 he summons one Fire Elemental. These creatures appear in an unoccupied space within 60 ft. of him and can be banished. Yoshikage can only use this ability once per dawn.
Burn Up. Once Yoshikage falls below 60 hit points, he gains immunity to cold and fire damage. He also loses the ability to use his Flame Burst feature, as he becomes permanently engulfed in flames. A creature that starts its turn within 5 ft. of him or moves onto aspace within 5 ft. of him for the first timeon its turn takes 7 (2d6) fire damage.
Spellcasting. Yoshikage is a 5th-level spellcaster. His spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 16, +8 to hit with spell attacks). Yoshikage knows the following spells.
Cantrips (at will): Fire Bolt, Produce Flame
1st level (3 slots): Burning Hands, Searing Smite
2nd level (2 slots): Aganazzar's Scorcher, Scorching Ray
3rd level (1 slot): Fireball
Multiattack. Yoshikage makes two attacks with Kohai, one of which can be replaced with a Burning Grasp attack.
Kohai. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 5 ft., 1 target. Hit: 13 (2d6 + 6) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) fire damage.
Burning Grasp. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., 1 target. Hit: 9 (2d6 + 2) fire damage. The target must succeed on a Acrobatics or Athletics check (DC 15) or be grappled. A creature grappled this way takes 3 (1d6) additional points of fire damage at the start of each of its turns untilit is released or it succeeds on another check to break the grapple as a free action at the end of its turn. Yoshikage can only grapple one creature at a time and can not use this ability while he is grappling a creature.
Tactical Retreat. Yoshikage jumps through the air and lands on an unoccupied space within 30 ft. of himself that he can see. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity. He can not do this while being grappled, restrained or while he is grappling another creature.
Feint Attack. Yoshikage feints an attack to gain advantage to his attacks with Kohai until the end of his turn. He chooses a creature within 5 ft. of himself that he can see. Said creature must make an Insight check (DC 13) to avoid being tricked by this ability.
Flame Burst. Immediately after taking damage, Yoshikage can engulf himself in flames, dealing 7 (2d6) fire damage to any creature within 5 ft. of himself that isn't behind total cover.
Description
Yamamura Yoshikage is the eldest child and only son of Yamamura Iroh, the Lord of Ashina. He is a very soft spoken, polite and dutiful heir to the titleand has spent many a day trying to prove to the citizens of his kanton that he is more than worthy of once becoming their sovereign. To him, the people of his kanton and their well-being comes first, and there is nothing he wouldn't do to keep them safe.
The Kohai. This long, heavy Katana has a black blade that shimmers slightly with a red tint. It's handle is made out of darkened red wood and wrapped in ash-white cloth.
It feels uncomfortably warm to the touch, seemingly getting hotter everytime one gets used to its heat.
This Katana has long since been in the posession of the Yamaura Clan, and it is said to have tremendous power. Some scholars even say that it could be one of the three legendary Katana that were wielded by Yoshida Akihiro, the greatest warrior and general Midoriku has ever known.
Blinded by Ambition. The wielder of the Kohai must suffer a terrible fate. As the blade has been cursed by the Elves it was used to slaughter, it takes away a part of the wielder's soul. It also seems to darken its master's thoughts, driving them to be more aggressive and ambitious.
As its current master, Yoshikage has been corrupted by the sword. His part in the war is bigger than many might even dream of, and his plans are more nefarious than even his closest friends would ever be able to expect of him.
The Blade hungers. The Kohai is said to feed on the falmes of destruction and the ashes those flames leave behind. As such, in times of war, it seems increasingly potent. The more powerful it gets, the more influence it gains over it wielder.
