Ghost Hunter

Ghost Hunters focus their attentions on the supernatural, more specifically on immaterial beings that plague the living. Through tricks, study, and harsh training, they harness a power within themselves to create magical effects and form defenses against undead creatures at a pinch. As they gain experience, Ghost Hunters become adept at dispatching otherworldly horrors on a daily basis and as such, become the bane of necromancers and evil alike.

Restriction: Good

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you are committed to fighting the forces of evil and embrace a Ghost Hunter's philosophy and ethics.

You must change your character's alignment to either Lawful Good, Chaotic Good, or Neutral Good.

Spirit Oil

Starting at 7th level, you coat your weapons in an arcane oil. Your armed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Veil Sense

Starting at 10th level, you get a feel for the veil between worlds.

As an action you can determine the presence of undead creatures in the area. This detection extends up to 300ft in all directions. You learn the distance and direction, but not the number. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a short rest.

Exorcist Blade

At 15th level, you gain the ability to enchant your weapon to strike with righteous force. On the first weapon attack of your turn, you can cause the attack to deal an extra 1d8 radiant  damage. When you reach 18th level, the extra damage increases to 2d8.

Trick the Reaper

Starting at 18th level, you have woven a healing spell into your own body that allows you to resist death. When you have to make a death saving throw at any time, you can instead spring back to your feet with a burst of radiant energy. You regain hit points equal to half your hit point maximum, and may stand up if you so choose.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
