Voidcaller

To be a ranger means one exists as a guardian of the natural order. Learning and coexisting with the world around them is second nature to a ranger. Some pursue training to become stronger hunters, some bond with souls of beasts to fight in tandem and some take on otherworldly presences that would harm their home. You, on the other hand, have taken it upon yourself to become the antithesis of these paths. By forgoing the light of your world you have expanded your touch to the Void. By commanding the taboo powers it grants with your burning passion for defending your land; you will strike with deadly force and precision. Take heed, however, that the Void does not swallow you into the dark abyss.

Black Rose Mark

When you choose this subclass at 3rd level you gain the ability to infuse your strikes with scarring malice and darkness. As a bonus action you can infuse your weapon with energy from The Void. The next time you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can choose to mark them with a Black Rose. While marked in this way, the creature takes an extra 1d6 force damage when hit by your weapon attacks. Additionally, the Black Rose suffuses the creature with a poisonous curse that flares in the presence of The Void. If the marked creature is affected by a Void Ability of your Tempestuous Void Feature, the mark causes an additional effect of the ability. You can only have one creature marked by this feature at any time and you can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom Modifier before requiring a Long Rest.

Tempestuous Void

Also starting at 3rd level, you can channel the ancestral powers within you to augment the actions you take with fragments of The Void. You learn 2 Void Abilities from the following list. You can activate the abilities by expending a Ranger spell slot and the relevant action. You can only use 1 Void Ability per turn. If you target a creature who is marked by your Black Rose Mark feature, the ability gains an additional effect against that target. You learn another 2 Void abilities at 7th level, one at 11th level and another one at 15th level, for a total of 6.

Anxious Volley

When you hit with a ranged weapon attack, you can expend a 1st level spell slot or higher to create phantom arrows of anxiety. You create an arrow that automatically hits the target. This projectile deals the same damage as the ranged weapon used but does not gain the benefits of modifiers or additional features. Additionally, the arrow deals Force damage instead of it's normal damage type. You can expend a higher level slot to create an additional arrow for every level above 1st the slot was.

Marked: The penalty also applies to attack rolls.

Corrupt Ground

When you hit with a melee weapon attack, you can choose to expend a 1st level spell slot to send out a wave of negative energy that corrupts the very land your target walks upon. The energy of your weapon creates a line, 10ft long and 5ft wide of desecrated ground. Until the beginning of your next turn, the area is considered difficult terrain and any creature other then you that starts it's turn or enters the area for the first time must make a constitution saving throw against your spell save DC or take 1d8 force damage. You can expend a higher level spell slot to increase the length of the line by 10ft for every level above 1st the slot was.

When a creature marked by your Black Rose Mark feature dies within 60ft of you, you can use your reaction to shift the mark to another creature you can see within 60ft of you. Doing so does not expend an additional use of your Black Rose Mark feature.

Embrace the Dark

Starting at 11th level, you have found a way to embrace the welcoming darkness. During a short or long rest,  you touch a point in space, and an invisible, 30-foot-radius sphere of magic appears, centred on that point. Total cover blocks the sphere.

While within the sphere, you and your allies gain a +5 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth) and Wisdom (Perception) checks, and any light from open flames in the sphere (a campfire, torches, or the like) isn’t visible outside it.

If you spend the entirety of a short rest within the sphere, you regain a number of spell slots whose combined levels equal your proficiency bonus.

Until the beginning of your next turn, all creatures are considered marked by Black Rose Mark for the purposes of the Tempestuous Void feature. Additionally, when you use a Void Ability that targets only one creature and that creature is not Marked by Black Rose Mark, you can choose to also target the Marked creature as long as it is also within range. To be eligible, the ability must be incapable of targeting more than one creature and cannot be used in conjunction with the first effect. You can use this effect a number of times equal to your Wisdom Modifier per Long Rest.
