Black Silence

The Black Silence was a legendary colored fixer, known for their multitude of high-end weapons and their anonymous nature.

Based on the Black Silence from the Korean indie game, Library of Ruina. Feel free to support the developers! And to make the subclass more lore-friendly to whatever world you are playing in, feel free to change the ability names, weapon names, and even some of the features. This was also partly my desire to crate a Rune Knight/Battle Master subclass that incentivized using various weapons, and being able to switch between them constantly without using actions.

Shadowed Arsenal

Starting at 3rd, your dedication to physical combat manifest in a series of powerful abilities granted to a wide array of weapons.

Weapons of the Black Silence. You gain access to three Weapons of the Black Silence, which are detailed in the "Weapons of the Black Silence" below. Each special ability of each Weapon of the Black Silence can only be activated once per short rest.

You gain access to two additional Weapons of the Black Silence of your choice at 7th, 10th, and 15th level. Each time you gain a level in Fighter, you can replace one Weapon of the Black Silence for another you are eligible for.

Saving Throws. Some of your Weapons of the Black Silence abilities require your target to make a saving throw to resist the its effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Weapon of the Black Silence save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (your choice)

Gloves of the Black Silence

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you gain an extra-dimensional space that you can store and access your Weapons of the Black Silence. You can choose how you access this space by rolling on the Gloves of the Black Silence Table, or by flavoring it yourself.

Gloves of the Black Silence

This extradimensional space can only hold weapons that are assigned as a Weapon of the Black Silence. You can assign any weapons to fulfill your selected Weapons of the Black Silence options over the course of a 1 hour ritual, which can be part of a long rest. Only one (set) of weapons can be designated as each Weapon of the Black Silence at one time. If you assign a new weapon, the previous weapon is ejected within 5 feet of you at the end of the ritual.

You cannot be disarmed from any Weapon of the Black Silence unless you are incapacitated. Any Weapon of the Black Silence not wielded by you returns to your extradimensional space at the end of the turn.

You can summon any Weapon of the Black Silence as a free action, and when you make an attack as part of the attack action, you can freely exchange your current Weapon of the Black Silence for any other. If you die, all of your weapons appear in an unoccupied space within 5 feet.

This reaction does not consume your regular reaction.

Any creature can take an action to stanch the wound with a successful Wisdom (Medicine) check against your DC. The wound also closes if the target receives magical healing.

You can use this feature once per long rest.
