Rogue
Base Class: Rogue

You are a Professional and you have a fcuking job to do. You only need your wits and some good old school preparation.

Level 3: Preparation is everything

Starting at 3rd level, after each long rest, you take time to prepare for the tasks ahead. This includes selecting the right standard gear, special tools, potions, and mentally and physically preparing yourself for the job.

When you finish a long rest, either prepare to infiltrate, to investigate or to engage. You gain the benefits associated with that job until the end of your next long rest.


A) Prepare to infiltrate

If towers must be climbed or private chambers must be spyed upon, prepare to infiltrate.

  • Standard Gear. Choose one of the following: a grappling hook or binoculars (functioning as a spyglass) for the day.

  • Special Tool. Choose one of the following:

    • An invisibility cloak, which functions as if under the invisibility spell for 1 hour, ending early if you make an attack or cast a spell (usable once per long rest).

    • A pair of goggles of true sight, which grant you truesight out to 60 feet for 1 minute (usable once per long rest).

  • Focused Discipline. Choose either Investigation or Perception. You have advantage on ability checks made with the chosen skill until your next long rest.


B) Prepare to investigate

If you need to gather social information, eavesdrop, or blend into crowds, prepare to investigate

  • Standard Gear. Choose one of the following: a set of fine clothes or a pen and forged documents.

  • Special Tool. Choose one of the following:

    • A hat of disguise, which functions as the disguise self spell for 1 hour (usable once per long rest).

    • A charming flower. The first creature other than you to hold the flower becomes charmed by you for 1 hour (no saving throw; the charm ends early if you or your allies harm the creature). This effect can be used once per long rest.

  • Focused Discipline. Choose either Insight or Deception. You have advantage on ability checks made with the chosen skill until your next long rest.


C) Prepare to engage

If the time for speaking and sneaking is over. For escort missions, bodyguard jobs or good old head on confrontations, prepare to engage.

  • Standard Gear. Choose one of the following: a bomb (a thrown weapon that deals 4d6 fire damage in a 5-foot radius; save DC 13 for half) or a potion of healing.

  • Special Tool. Choose one of the following:

    • A Shield, which grants you the Protection fighting style while equipped.

    • A set of Plate Armor, which grants you the Defense fighting style while equiped.

  • Focused Discipline. You gain proficiency with heavy armor, shields, and martial weapons until your next long rest.

Level 9: Professional Edge

Starting at 9th level, your daily preparations grow more refined, granting you access to additional tools and techniques suited to your selected job. Each job gains an extra benefit as described below.


Prepare to infiltrate — Whispering Eye

As part of your Infiltration preparation, you receive a magical eye-shaped stone. Once per long rest, you can rub the stone to cast the arcane eye spell without expending a spell slot or requiring material components. When you cast the spell in this way, it is treated as if cast at 4th level, and the arcane eye remains invisible and lasts for 1 hour.


Prepare to investigate — I Know a Guy

When you are in a populated area such as a city district, tavern, guildhall, or similar location, you can make a luck roll to determine if you recognize someone in the vicinity. As an action, roll a d20. If its 10 or higher, you are lucky and you know a guy in the area. You may know them from prior jobs, as a client, an old friend or even family member. The higher the roll, the more friendly the person is towards you, loosely along this scale:

10: Rival

14: Neutral acquaintance

18: Trusted ally

20: Close friend or family member

This ability can only be used once per long rest. If you roll a 9 or lower, you do not know anyone in the area, but you may try again in a different location, once today. If you were based in the general area (city, province) for more than 1 month, make the roll with advantage.


Prepare to engage — Extra Attack

When you prepare for Engage, you gain the benefits of the Extra Attack feature.
While you are in Engage mode, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Level 13: Immaculate Preparation

Staring at 13th level, when you have chosen for the type of preparation: Make no choices, but get all of its benefits,

Improvisation

When you reach 17th level: Once per long rest, you can swap the type of preparation in a 1-hour short rest.
