Base Class: Ranger
Rangers of the Metropolitan Marauder Conclave follow no ancient tradition or creed. These rangers were thieves, urchins, orphans and the like that were adopted by the city as its children. These ranger have developed a symbiotic relationship with the city and its people and are specially suited to navigating any city and using it to their advantage.
Marauder Spells
Starting at 3rd level, you learn an additional spell when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Metropolitan Marauder Spells table. The spell counts as a ranger spell for you, and it doesn’t count against the number of ranger spells you know.

Friend from the City
At 3rd level, whether as a child or during your travels in various cities, you gain a friend in the form of an animal familiar. You may choose any Beast of CR 1/4 or lower, that could feasibly be found in an urban environment, as your familiar. The creature gains your Dexterity (Stealth), Intelligence (Investigation) and Wisdom (Perception) skills. It also shares a method of verbal communication only you and it understand. It cannot attack or serve as a mount but instead serves as a scout of sorts. While your familiar is within 5ft of you, you have advantage on Intelligence (Investigation) and Wisdom (Perception) checks.
If the familiar is ever killed or lost, 5gp worth of food can be left unobserved in a hidden place at midnight. By dawn, your familiar will be found in its place, having consumed the food.
Raven on the Rooftop
Starting at 3rd level, when you attack using a ranged weapon from a perch at least 10 feet higher than your target, you have advantage on the attack.

At 7th level, you gain the following bonuses after spending at least a day exploring a city.
- You can perfectly recall any path you've traveled in the city limits and the immediate surrounds.

- You gain the ability to create hidden caches in the city. A cache can contain up to 100 lbs of material. Only you know where these caches are and they cannot be burgled or destroyed. (PS: You are expected to keep notes of the locations and contents of your caches.)
