Classes of Distinction

The following class options have been designed to enhance your gaming experience. If you’re a player looking to use one, make sure
you get permission from your Game Master first.

If you’re a GM considering these new options, keep the following in mind:

• Each option has been designed to provide a measure of balance among the class it is available to. Some options may be more pow-
erful, others less. The idea is to give players an array of choices best for your campaign.
• The options are built based off existing features already incorporated in the PHB, with enough variation and innovative features to
keep the experience exciting and unique. If you don’t like the features in one of the options, you’re well within your rights as a GM
to change it or veto its use.

Class Options At a Glance

Path of the Alpha. If combat buffs and party battle tactics are
your cup of tea, you’ll enjoy this barbarian class option. Flexible
war cries grant you and your comrades increased health, speed,
defense, and damage – all while you remain a martial threat
in combat yourself. You’ll want an investment in Charisma to
ensure more war cry uses, which follows suit with the option’s
leadership motif.
College of the Muse. It’s time for bards to self-inspire! The
Bardic College of the Muse does just that, allowing bards the
ability to award themselves one of their Bardic Inspiration dice.
Growing in the class allows their majestic presence to inspire
multiple comrades at a time, as well as ensuring an inspired ally
deftly avoids danger in combat!
Circle of Ruin. This new druid option finds a balance between
continuous wild shaping and flat-out spell use, opting for a hybrid
melee combatant. Class features allow you to harness the entropy
of nature to empower your weapons, take on a primordial form,
and reap vitality from those slain in your presence. An exciting
option to change your druid’s tactics!
Trapsman. The idea of a ranger utilizing traps to harry their
foes is iconic, and this new ranger archetype embraces that role.
By conjuring traps on the battlefield, you’re able to use your
reaction against enemies that draw near them, hampering them
with damage and conditions as they advance. A great alternative
with lots of trap effect options to choose from, and a great asset
for giving your ranger a degree of battlefield control!
Oath of Ancestry. Paladins of the Oath of Ancestry call upon
the spirits of their family to aid them at all times, granting them
a mix of offensive, defensive and utilitarian options. Players and
GMs alike can have a lot of fun drawing up NPC spirits that are
summoned as result of this new sacred oath. Knowing who the
spirits used to belong to can make for some interesting role-playing.
Vigilante. The vigilante roguish archetype focuses on
incapacitating and restraining foes – as well as giving them a few
obvious “superhero” motifs. While there’s certainly no requirement
to become a caped crusader in a local city or town, you certainly
can do just that. The class option works just as well for traditional
combat and dungeon crawls, however, making it an ideal route for
those that prefer to capture and interrogate their foes.
Blood Magic. Blood maguses have existed as a player favorite
in previous editions, and it feels natural as a sorcerous origin in
the game’s current format. This sorcerer feature introduces the
concept of tying hit dice to spell resources, giving you the option
to forgo future healing for the sake of power or utility. It presents a
couple dynamic options to choose from, making it a well-rounded
choice with plenty of room for fun role-playing!
The Hand of Fate. What does the future hold? A warlock with
The Hand of Fate otherworldly patron knows better than most.
With this option, a warlock gains a modicum of control over his
or her fate, and the fate of others. In addition to some powers
that can tip the balance of battle, this patron also bestows brief
glimpses of the future. These prophetic visions should be enough
to keep the warlock wary until the future plays out.
Chronomancy. A new twist on wizard arcane traditions, this
one focused not on magic sub-schools, but how magic affects time
itself. Includes some useful utility to speed up your allies while
slowing your opponents to a snail’s pace - leading up to the ability
to stop time at a fraction of a second, or remove creatures from
time altogether! Definitely one to check out if you like the idea of
a utility caster.

Barbarian Alpha
At 10th level, you assert yourself as your pack’s leader, and your

PATH OF THE ALPHA
Primal Path
Exarches of barbarian tribes are not just ferocious combatants, but
inspirational and cunning leaders as well. Barbarians that follow
the Path of the Alpha find themselves in command of others; rage
is not only a passion to destroy their enemies, but also an instinct
to protect and lead their allies. As a member of this path, you rel-
ish when you defeat your adversaries through total domination by
your pack.
passion for battle conducts those that follow your lead. While rag-
ing, whenever you hit a target with a melee attack, one ally within
5 feet of the target hit may use their reaction to move 5 feet. This
movement does not provoke opportunity attacks.
War Cry: Blood
At 14th level, your war cry can turn each weapon in your com-
panions’ hands into a menace, like a predator on the scent of
blood. Instead of your war cry’s normal effect, targets deal +1d6
damage with weapon attacks, and can choose to reroll a missed
weapon attack once during the war cry’s duration. They must use
the result of the second roll.

War Cries
Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, you can use a bo-
nus action while you are raging to shout a war cry to inspire your
companions and bolster their efforts in battle. A war cry affects
you and your allies within 30 feet that are able to hear you. You
are unable to use a war cry if you are gagged, magically silenced,
or otherwise unable to speak.

While under the effect of your war cry,

each target’s hit point maximum and cur-
rent hit points increase by 5 for the
duration. At 9th level this amount
increases to 10, at 13th level this
amount increases to 15, and at
17th level this amount increases
to 20. As you gain levels, you have
the option to modify the effect of your
war cry each time you issue it.

Each war cry lasts for 1 minute, until your rage ends,
or until you issue a new one of the same kind, whichever
occurs first. A new war cry of the same kind supersedes the
effects of a previous one. You can use this feature a number
of times equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier (a minimum of
once). You regain any expended uses when you finish a short or
long rest.

War Cry: Flock

At 3rd level, your war cry can increase the speed of your com-
panions, like a flock of birds in flight. Instead of your war cry’s
normal effect, targets increase their speed by 10 feet, and gain an
additional action each round which may only be spent to use the
Dash action.

War Cry: Mountain

At 6th level, your war cry can bolster the durability of your
companions, like the unyielding mountain. Instead of your war
cry’s normal effect, targets gain +1 AC and have advantage on
saving throws versus becoming charmed, frightened, poisoned, or
stunned.

Bardic Inspiration die, you choose a number of creatures equal to

only expends one use of your Bardic Inspiration feature.

Bard College
Bards of the College of the Muse seek inspiration and advocate
creativity. These bards tend to be artists in their own right, trav-
eling the world for new ideas to better their craft, and in their
presence multitudes of others are inspired by them. For such
bards, the beauty is not the result of the art they create, but in
their journey to perfect it.
Guiding Presence
At 14th level, your very presence is a boon and guide to those you
have inspired. Whenever a creature that has one of your Bardic
Inspiration dice is required to make a saving throw, they can use
your Muse score in place of their own ability modifier to add to
the result.

Muse Score
Your insightful demeanor gives
those you inspire a positive
outlook. Beginning at 3rd level

Form of Ruin
Starting at 2nd level, you gain the ability to use

humanoid and elemental, perhaps mistaken for a fey
or demon by an observer. Your armor and clothing are
merged into your new appearance, but carried weapons,
shields, and items may still be used by it.

While transformed, your AC equals 13 + your Dexter-

ity modifier and you have advantage on saving throws
against fire, lightning, and necrotic damage. Otherwise,
your game statistics remain the same. Transforming in
this manner does not change your hit points or Hit Dice.
While transformed, you can continue to cast spells and
speak, although your voice becomes echoed and guttural.

Paladin
OATH OF ANCESTRY
Sacred Oath
The Oath of Ancestry binds a paladin to uphold the tenets of his
or her family. It often begins at birth by all members of a certain
lineage, the importance of the family’s name and history being
taught as the paladin goes through adolescence. Those that swear
its final vows become vessels for the spirits of their families; these
souls guide, protect, and assist their living heirs and descendants
at all times. A paladin of the Oath of Ancestry never steps into
battle alone.
Tenets of Ancestry
The tenets of the Oath of Ancestry vary from house to house; some
emphasize specific goals or household values while others are more
general in how a paladin should act. They typically emphasize the
principles of good, although the good of the family always comes
first. All of them share the following core philosophies.
Honor the Name. Never sully the family name with dubious
deeds, and never allow another to speak ill of it.
Honor the Past. Remember those in the family that have served
the name before you.
Honor the Future. Ensure the family name lives on.
Honor the Others. Show respect to others of great names, as
they show respect to you in kind.

Channel Divinity
When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two
Channel Divinity options.
Call Spirits. You can use your Channel Divinity to call the spir-
its of your ancestors to manifest around you. As a bonus action,
you cause these spirits to appear, grabbing and clinging to your
enemies. For 1 minute or until your concentration is broken (as if
you were concentrating on a spell) hostile creatures treat the area
within 10 feet of you as difficult terrain. This effect includes flying
creatures and creatures moving through the Ethereal Plane. For
the duration, creatures within 5 feet of you provoke opportunity
attacks from you even if they take the Disengage action before
leaving your reach.
Dungeons On Demand
Spirit Guide. As a bonus action, you can use your Channel
Divinity to invoke a specific spirit to aid you. The spirit may
belong to someone you were once close to, such as a deceased
sibling or parent, or a prominent figure of your household, such
as a great, great-grandparent that forged a family heirloom or
accomplished a notable feat. The spirit remains by your side for
1 minute and can’t be harmed. The spirit cannot speak, but can
communicate empathically with you.
At any time during the duration, you can use the spirit’s
assistance, giving you advantage on a single attack roll, check, or
saving throw. Once you gain this benefit, the spirit is dismissed.
Ancestral Aura
Starting at 7th level, the spirits of your ancestors lash out at those
that threaten you. When a hostile creature starts its turn within 5
feet of you, it takes force damage equal to your Charisma modifier.
At 18th level, the range of this aura increases to 10 feet.
Ancestral Guardian
Starting at 15th level, you can call a warrior spirit of your
ancestors to watch over you for an extended period of time. The
spirit arrives in a space you can see within 30 feet of you, where
it remains for up to 8 hours, until you dismiss it as an action, or
until you move more than 100 feet away from it.
The spirit is invisible to all creatures except you and can’t be
harmed. The spirit does not speak, but make a wailing sound
audible to all creatures. When a hostile creature comes within 30
feet of it, the spirit begins to wail loudly. The spirit sees invisible
creatures and can see into the Ethereal Plane. It ignores illusions.
Once you use this ability, you can’t use it again until you finish
a long rest.
Spectral Scion
At 20th level, you can allow an ancestral spirit to possess your
body, giving you some of its spectral power. When you do so, your
corporeal form and equipment changes to that of a spirit, taking
on features of the family member possessing you. For example,
you may have the signature scar of your deceased great-uncle,
the long hair of a deceased cousin, or the rough accent of your
deceased grandfather.
Using your action, you undergo the transformation and become
incorporeal. For 1 minute, you gain the following benefits:
• You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing
damage from nonmagical weapons, and you are immune to
necrotic and poison damage.
• You cannot become grappled, paralyzed, petrified,
poisoned, prone, or restrained.
• You gain a fly speed of 30 feet, and you can move through
other creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain.
You take 1d10 force damage if you end your turn inside
an object.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish
a long rest.

Ranger
TRAPSMAN
Ranger Archetype
A ranger that embraces the Trapsman archetype understands
the power of the element of surprise. These trapsmen (or indeed,
trapswomen in many cases) earn their namesake from their use of
traps to hunt and defeat the monsters that threaten the wilderness.
By following the role of the Trapsman, you develop unique traps
and learn different ways to employ these traps in battle.
Ranger’s Trap
When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you learn how to use
your magic to conjure traps that surprise and harass your foes.
Trap Effects. You learn two trap effects of your choice, which
are detailed under “Trap Effects” below. Each trap effect causes
your traps to interact with hostile creatures differently.
You learn an additional trap effect of your choice at 7th, 11th,
and 15th level. Each time you learn a new trap effect, you can
replace one trap effect you know with a different one.
Placing Traps. You can use a bonus action to conjure a Small
trap in an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see
within 30 feet. When you place a trap, you choose which trap
effect it has. The trap remains in its space for 1 minute, until it is
sprung, until you use a bonus action to dismiss it, or until you
conjure another trap beyond your normal limit.
You can only have one trap placed at a time. At 7th level, you
can have up to two traps placed at a time. At 15th level, you can
have up to three. Each trap may have a different trap effect.
Your trap is invisible to hostile creatures, has an AC of 10, im-
munity to necrotic, poison, and psychic damage, and hit points
equal to 10 + your ranger level.
Springing Traps. When a hostile creature moves within, or ends
its turn within, 10 feet of the space occupied by your trap, you can
use your reaction to trigger its trap effect. When a trap is sprung,
it will either require you to make an attack roll against the target
using your spell attack modifier, or for the target to make a saving
throw against your spell save DC.
After a trap is sprung it crumbles into dust and no longer oc-
cupies its space.
Empowered Traps
Starting at 7th level, your traps that make attack rolls against a
target count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance
and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.
Improved Cover
At 11th level, whenever you gain the benefit of half or three-
quarters cover, you gain an additional +1 bonus to your AC and
Dexterity saving throws. While benefitting from cover and not
moving you have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks.
Enhanced Range
At 15th level, you can use your reaction to trigger your trap
against a hostile creature that moves within, or ends its turn
within, 20 feet of the space occupied by your trap.
Trap Effects
The trap effects are presented in alphabetical order.
Dazzling Burst. An array of bright lights and flashes surround
the target. The triggering creature makes an Intelligence saving
throw. On a failed save, the creature becomes distracted by the
display and cannot use reactions for 1 minute. At the end of each
of its turns, an affected creature can repeat its saving throw against
this effect, ending the condition on a success.
Fire Gout. A gout of flame sprays at the target. The triggering
creature makes a Dexterity saving throw. The creature takes 1d10
fire damage on a failed saving throw, or half as much damage on a
successful one.
This trap’s damage increases by 1d10 when your ranger level
reaches 5 (2d10), 11 (3d10), and 17 (4d10).
Lightning Strike. A jet of lightning blasts out toward the target.
The stroke of lightning then leaps from that target to another
target within 30 feet. The triggering creature and secondary
targets each makes a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 2d6
lightning damage on a failed saving throw.
The amount of secondary targets increases by 1 when your
ranger level reaches 5 (2 secondary targets), 11 (3 secondary tar-
gets), and 17 (4 secondary targets).
Luminous Dust. A cloud of luminous dust billows onto the
target, making them easier to detect and target. The triggering
creature makes a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save the
creature is coated in the luminous material and sheds dim light in
a 10-foot radius until the start of its next turn.
A creature affected by this trap cannot benefit from being invis-
ible. Any attack roll against an affected creature has advantage if
the attacker is able to see it.
Needle Barrage. A fusillade of needles is launched at the target.
Make an attack roll against the triggering creature. On a hit, the
target suffers 1d4 piercing damage and makes a Constitution sav-
ing throw. On a failed save the target suffers a grievous wound,
suffering the damage again at the start of its next turn. A creature
that regains hit points before its next turn ignores this effect.
This trap’s damage increases by 1d4 when your ranger level
reaches 5 (2d4), 11 (3d4), and 17 (4d4).
Net Trap. When this trap is sprung a barbed net it fired at the
target. Make an attack roll against the triggering creature. On a
hit, if the creature is Large or smaller it is restrained until it can
free itself from the net. A creature can use its action to make a DC
10 Strength check, freeing itself or another creature within reach
on a success. Dealing 5 slashing damage to the net (AC 10) also
frees the creature without harming it.
 Dungeons On Demand

Poisoned Bolt. A toxin-coated bolt is fired at the target. Make

an attack roll against the triggering creature. On a hit, the target
suffers 1d6 piercing damage, and must make a Constitution sav-
ing throw. On a failed save, the target is poisoned for 1 minute.
At the end of each of its turns, an affected creature can repeat its
saving throw against this effect, ending the condition on a success.

Snare. Weighted bolas fires at the target, entangling and forcing

it to fall. Make an attack roll against the triggering creature. On a
hit, if the creature is Large or smaller it is knocked prone.

Tar Trap. Globs of sticky tar fire at the creature, slowing its
movement. The triggering creature makes a Strength saving
throw. On a failed save the creature moves at half speed and suf-
fers a -2 penalty to Dexterity saving throws for 1 minute. At the
end of each of its turns, an affected creature can repeat its saving
throw against this effect, ending the condition on a success.

Debilitating Strike
Rogue Starting at 17th level, you’ve mastered strategic strikes to debilitate
your foes. When you attack and hit a creature that is restrained or

VIGILANTE surprised, it must make a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + your

Dexterity modifier + your proficiency bonus). On a failed save,
the creature becomes unconscious.
Roguish Archetype

All rogues pride themselves on their ability to think on their feet,

improvise, and take matters into their own hands if necessary.
No archetype exemplifies these ideals more than the vigilante.
These rogues work outside the law to handle their
adversaries as they see fit, putting their excep-
tional skills to use where local authorities lag
behind. A local vigilante may be perceived
as a hero or villain, depending upon the
populace they serve, but none can argue
their methods get results.

Alter Ego
When you choose this archetype at 3rd
level, you can choose to develop an alter
ego you operate under while in populated areas. You
gain proficiency with the disguise kit, and profi-
ciency with the Deception and Intimidation skills
while operating under your alter ego. Most
vigilantes treat this identity carefully, diligent
not to let others know their true identity lest
authorities come looking for them.

Tools of the Trade

When you choose this archetype at 3rd
level, you gain proficiency with attack rolls
with nets. Additionally, you can use the
bonus action granted by your Cunning

smaller creature with manacles or rope.

Improvised Weapon Mastery

By 9th level, you’ve learned how to turn even
the most innocuous objects into deadly weapons.
You are considered proficient with all improvised

of these spells is prepared upon you as a distinct scar. As long as

Sorcerer a scar is upon you, you can cast the spell associated with without
using a spell slot, at which point the scar magically disappears.

BLOOD MAGIC
Each spell prepared as a scar in this manner lasts 24 hours, or
until it is cast, whichever occurs first.

Sorcerous Origin
Your innate magic comes from a mysterious power, deep-seated
in your own blood. Spilling your blood unleashes a wellspring of
this power, making your magic all the more potent. Most often,
sorcerers with this origin discover their magic at an early age,
typically when they suffer a small wound that draws blood. Once
this correlation is discovered, sorcerers draw their blood more
and more often to call upon it. This leaves many blood maguses
covered in scars, dancing the line of knowing just how much
blood to sacrifice for potency.
Blood Magic
Starting at 1st level, you can choose to spend one of your sorcerer
hit dice when you deal damage to one or more creatures with a
sorcerer spell. If you do, roll the die and add your Constitution
modifier. Each target damaged by the spell suffers additional
damage equal to the result. You do not regain hit
points for hit dice spent for this effect.
Awaken Blood
Beginning at 18th level, your tie to blood is so strong you’ve
learned how to manipulate the blood in other creatures, agitat-
ing it and causing them horrific pain. As a bonus action, you can
spend 3 sorcery points to use this power on a creature within 60
feet of you with blood in its body (for instance, constructs, oozes
and most undead would likely be unaffected by this power, but a
vampire would certainly be subject to it).
The creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw versus
your spell save DC or have vulnerability to damage you deal with
spells while affected by this power. This effect lasts for 1 minute
or until you lose your concentration (as if you were casting a con-
centration spell). A creature that succeeds on this saving throw
is immune to this ability for 24 hours. If a creature is killed while
under this effect, its blood bursts forth in a bloody explosion upon
its death.

Transfuse
Your blood and sorcerous power are
intertwined to the point where you can
convert blood for power, and power for
blood. At 1st level, as a bonus action, you
can spend 2 sorcery points to regain a spent
sorcerer hit die. Or, as a bonus action, you
can spend a sorcerer hit die to regain 2 sor-
cery points. You do not regain hit points for
hit dice spent for this effect. You cannot use this
feature to gain hit dice or sorcery points beyond your
normal maximum.

Thick-Blooded
Starting at 6th level, the power in your blood provides
you unnatural resilience towards staving off death.
When you roll a death saving throw, rolling a 1 on the
d20 no longer counts as two failures, and rolling a 19 or
20 on the d20 allows you to regain 1 hit point. Additionally,
whenever you are dealt damage by a nonmagical attack, you
can use your reaction to spend a sorcery point to gain resistance
to the damage dealt by the attack.

Scarification
Starting at 14th level, you’ve learned how to draw blood to store
magical potency in scars you create. During a short or long rest,
you may choose to spend an amount of sorcerer hit dice up to half
your sorcerer level (you do not regain hit points for hit dice spent
in this manner). If you do so, you can select any combination of
levels of spells you know equal to the same amount of hit dice
expended. You may select the same spell more than once. Each

THE HAND OF FATE
Otherworldly Patron

Your patron is a powerful servant of fate, an entity whose

existence serves no other purpose than ensuring all events un-
fold according to a cosmic, predestined plan. These beings’ ap-
pearances usually reflect their nature of meticulous order. They
are often titanic, clockwork constructs, designed by gods, and
operate incomprehensibly to mortal minds. They have no
emotion, personality, or humanity. The Hand of Fate positions
its servants like pieces on a chessboard, empowering each with
just enough control over its own destiny so its actions inevitably
lead to a predetermined outcome.

The Hand of Fate lets you choose from an expanded list of spells

Glimpse the Future Fate Walker

Starting at 6th level, you gain the ability to commune with your
patron, gaining brief insight into the events of the near future. By
taking 1 hour to prepare yourself in a meditative state, you contact
your patron. You ask a single question concerning a specific goal,
event, or activity to occur within 7 days. The GM offers a truthful
reply. The reply might be an audible statement, symbolic imagery
that appears in your mind, or an omen you must interpret.
This ability doesn’t take into account any possible circumstanc-
es that might change the outcome – it presents the fate of your
query as it currently stands. However the patron replies to you, its
answer is delivered exactly as it is intended to. Whatever outcome
occurs, its revelation maneuvers you to a fate desired by your
patron, regardless of the reply.
