Horror Tracker

Only some people can face the horrors of the world head on. But it takes truly rare individuals who have the guts to face them repeatedly. None quite compare to the rarity that is the act of dedication to the destruction of said horrors. With monsters ranging from the eerie to unfathomable, one rule remains true: they should be destroyed. However, in terms of raw execution, there is poetic justice when the horror is defeated with its own abilities. With the development of the obscure monster technique form of fighting, one can temporarily harness the primal power inherent in all creatures to emulate the monsters they hunt. The Horror Tracker will find their prey, and when they do, they take them down by emulating the fundamental strengths that monsters benefited from.

Monster Technique

You have learned to adapt the traits from the monster types you have expertly familiarized yourself with. Select two monster techniques of your choice. Each technique is a special form you can utilize to enhance your approach to combat against the creature type associated with it.

You can select one additional technique of your choice to benefit from at 7th, 11th, and 15th level.

Horrific Approach

7th-level Horror Tracker feature

You possess an otherworldly sense to find the monsters you hunt. You instantly become aware of the presence of creatures of the chosen types you selected from your monster technique feature that are within 1 mile feet of you. You know its exact creature type and its alignment.

As an action, you then can sense the creature's exact location and if the creature is moving, you know the direction of its movement as long as it remains within 1 mile of you. Once you take this action, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest unless you use a spell slot to use this feature again.

Aglaeca Instinct

11th-level Horror Tracker feature

You can forcefully imbue your primal magic onto the monsters you fight to gain knowledge and insight into how they operate. When you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can mark that creature with a special arcane symbol. While the creature is marked, you have advantage on attack rolls against that creature. In addition, you always know the creature’s current hit points and damage vulnerabilities (if any).

This mark lasts for 1 minute and you cannot mark more than one creature. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest unless you use a spell slot to use this feature again.

Conquer Mania

15th-level Horror Tracker feature

You are legendary at hunting the creatures you have based your techniques off of. When you hit a creature that is the same type of a monster technique you have currently selected, you gain the following benefits against that creature:

• The first time you hit with an attack roll on your turns, you deal an additional damage to that creature equal to half your Ranger level (round down).
• When you force a creature to make a saving throw, the creature cannot willingly succeed on the saving throw they initially fail.
• You can add your Wisdom modifier to all saving throws against the spells and abilities used by the creature type.
