The Order of the Bloodweaver Class for Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) Fifth Edition (5e)

Base Class: Blood Hunter

Members of the Order of the Bloodweaver are masters of controlling blood outside their own bodies, and use this talent to wield uncanny, magical weapons and siphon the life force from their opponents. Bloodweavers are required to undergo an intensely painful and deadly trial where their bodies are cut open and left to bleed out. to pass the trial, they must gain control of the blood spilling out of their body and successfully recollect it inside themselves to become a member of the order. most Bloodweavers are known for their strange philosophies: they have no reservations regarding taking life and spilling blood but heavily despise anyone who takes a life 'without a purpose'. To them, life and blood are but resources to be spent but are still considered valuable and not to be traded lightly. Most Bloodweavers are constantly travelling, searching for ways to not waste the blood flowing through their veins.

Level 3: Hemokinesis

When you join this order at 3rd level, you learn to create magical weapons from your blood. When you gain this feature, you know how to make 2 different weapons from the list below. This number increases to 3 at level 7 and again to 5 at level 11. During a long rest, you can take the time to familiarize yourself with a different weapon and swap out one of the weapons you know with another from the list below.

As a bonus action, you can take necrotic damage equal to your hemocraft die plus your hemocraft modifier that cannot be reduced in any way (minimum of 2). doing so creates a weapon out of blood from your chosen weapons, as long as two of your hands are free. Your attack modifier for these weapons is your hemocraft modifier plus your proficiency bonus. Each weapon deals necrotic damage, and has different properties, as shown below:

Greatsword: 3d6 + hemocraft modifier, range 5ft.

If your Crimson Rite is active, you may add its damage to the damage roll.

As a bonus action, the weapon can be integrated back into your body, healing you equal to your hemocraft modifier (minimum of 1). You can target this weapon with your crimson rite feature.
