Power-Hungry Demon (TOTK Ganondorf Subclass)

"I will reshape this world as it was meant to be.
I will crush any opposition. I will rule.
That, is what a king must do."

A Thirst for Power

Though most have been inspired by the tales of that legendary hero who wielded the sword of evil’s bane, who gave their all to battle the forces of evil, some others just can’t help but to be captivated by the sheer power of that who they call the “Demon King”. A cunning and malicious being which cared for nothing more than to rule the kingdom of Hyrule by any means necessary, to shroud the world in darkness, but most importantly, rid the lands of that insufferable light of hope… Is that really who you admire? After all, the path of achieving power beyond imagination may be something no one should strive for, if they want to keep themselves safe from being corrupted by hatred.

Gloom Die

7th Level Power-Hungry Demon feature
Through your extensive studies on the Demon King’s power you have learned to channel the power of Gloom through your weapons, when gaining this feature you gain the Gloom Die, this die is rolled whenever you make an attack with a Gloom weapon (As detailed on the Demonic Arsenal feature) and you may be asked to roll it on further features and abilities. Your Gloom die starts as a 1d6, then a 1d8 at 12th level, and finally 1d10 at 17th level.

Demon of Decay

7th Level Power-Hungry Demon feature
Through your constant channeling of the powers of Gloom you have become afflicted with a Gloom-borne sickness that seems to only grow stronger, due to this you may suffer different changes in appearance, your skin may have began to change color as if it were rotting away, your eyes might have changed to reflect the color of Gloom, your voice may have turned old and grungy, whatever the effect on appearance has been on you  in terms of your power, well, it has only grown stronger. And isn’t that what you want?

• You gain resistance to necrotic damage.
• Walking on Gloom or Malice doesn’t count as difficult terrain, you also can’t be damaged by either of these terrains.
• As part of your Action Surge you may choose a creature you can see and force it to make a CON saving throw against your Gloom DC, being afflicted with a Gloom-borne disease for a minute on a failure. While afflicted by this condition they become vulnerable to necrotic damage (Or neutral if they were resistant to necrotic damage) dealt by Gloom sources (Such as the extra necrotic damage dealt by your gloom weapons). The target may reroll their save as an action on their turn, ending the condition on a success.
• Your Gloom weapons deal extra necrotic damage equal to your Gloom Die once a turn.

Gloom Burst

10th Level Power-Hungry Demon feature
You have learned how to channel the devastating power of Gloom into an explosion of decay which weakens your enemies, making them surrender to your unmatched power. When using your Second Wind feature any enemy in a 20 ft radius from you must roll a CON Saving Throw against your Gloom DC, on a failure they are dealt necrotic damage equal to a roll of your Gloom Dice + Your level and you can choose one of the following effects for each of them:

• They are pushed up to 30 ft away from you, dealing fall damage if they hit a solid object while being pushed (Such as a wall or ceiling).
• You unleash a stream of Gloom down upon your target, severely weakening their combat capabilities. For 1 minute you gain advantage on attack rolls against the target and the target gains disadvantage on DEX, STR, and CON saving throws made for any other purpose than to combat the Gloom, as an action in their turn the target can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on a success.
• You trap the target in a web of Gloom that restrains them in place while also seething into their very soul at each passing moment. For 1 minute the target is restrained, when failing the first saving throw, as well as when starting their turn still restrained by the Gloom, they are dealt necrotic damage equal to a roll of your Gloom Dice. As an action in their turn the target can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on a success.

Demonic Vigor

15th Level Power-Hungry Demon feature
You gain an extra charge of your Second Wind feature after finishing a short or long rest, additionally you can expend both of these charges to give the targets of your Gloom Burst feature disadvantage on their saving throws, if any of them would have had disadvantage before taking this into account they fail automatically.

 

A King's Revival

18th Level Power-Hungry Demon feature
After sleepless nights and fierceful battles trying to rediscover the lost power of Gloom… You have finally done it… And through you now courses the power that once nearly destroyed the land of Hyrule, during the ancient imprisoning war. The power of the Demon King, Ganondorf.

But… Will you truly be able to harness such a terrible power…? Or will you die trying, much like all the others before you.

As a Bonus Action on your turn, or a reaction after being dropped to 0 Hit Points, you may choose to unleash the true power of Gloom. When doing so your appearance changes to reflect that of the Demon King’s, with a long and glowing, blood-stained mane flowing from your head, large scars of pure Gloom covering and infecting your body, eyes as dark as a void, and power beyond anyone’s comprehension. This form lasts for only a minute (10 turns), after which you’ll power down to your normal form, unconscious and gaining 3 levels of exhaustion. After this effect ends you must roll a 1d4, the result of which totals the number of days you must wait until being able to use this feature again. While in this form you gain the following benefits:

• After transforming you gain the effects of taking a long rest and reduce your exhaustion to 0 until the transformation ends.
• Any attack made by you adds extra necrotic damage equal to a roll of your Gloom Die.
• You gain immunity to necrotic damage and resistance to all other types of damage, except radiant, to which you are weak to.
• Any saving throw made against your Gloom DC is made with disadvantage, if it would have been made with disadvantage before taking this into account it fails automatically.
• You gain a gloom aura that inflicts necrotic damage equal to two rolls of your Gloom Die to any creature that starts its turn within 5 ft of you or comes into your range on their turn.
• You can make an extra attack each time you take the attack action.
