Shadow

Shadows are masters of stealth, deception and agility. They thrive in the cover of darkness, able to meld into the shadows and avoid the peering eyes of others. They use speed and dexterity to move from shadow to shadow, only entering the light for brief moments to attack. Though the skills of a shadow are highly sought after, they rarely sell out their services, preferring to keep to themselves.

 

Level 3: Cover Of Darkness

When you are under the cover of darkness, you gain advantage on all stealth checks. If you already have advantage, you instead add 2 to your proficiency bonus.

Level 3: Dark Dagger

You develop a mastery of attacking without being seen. While you are in stealth, or otherwise hidden, when you attack, then take the bonus action 'Cunning Action: Hide', if you would roll lower than your stealth roll from before attacking, your roll will be increased to one less than your previous stealth roll.

Level 9: Shadow Strike

Starting at level 9, you become more capable of surprise attacks in the darkness. When you are in a dark area, you are able to use sneak attack with you off-hand and main-hand. Additionally, you do not need advantage to use sneak attack when in a dark area, and the sneak attack damage is increased by 1d6.

Level 13: Hidden Void

Starting at 13th level, once per short rest, you can change a stealth check roll to a natural 20, so long as you are in a dark area. you will gain 1 charge every 2 levels afterwards.

Level 17: Nimble Shadow

Starting at level 17, you gain an additional 10 feet of movement speed and proficiency in all dexterity-based rolls so long as you are hidden, be it by the hide action, stealth or invisibility condition. Additionally, whenever you are targeted by an attack or spell, you can use a reaction to roll stealth. If the stealth roll is higher than both the roll to hit/save DC and the passive perception of the attacker, to enter stealth and dodge the attack. If not, then nothing happens. Spells/attacks that are guaranteed to hit and AoE spells/attacks cannot be dodged via this ability.
