Appendix 40

Final Word & Legal Stuff 52

Introduction
EMONS AND DEVILS HAVE INFESTED THE LAND. THE
light cannot extinguish this shadow. The heroes
cannot bear the burden of the sin one must commit
to drive them back. Only those tainted by the
darkness can stand against them. Only the Dark
Archetypes.
Death, Demons and Devils are a major part of D&D.
However, there are only a few options that delve around
those areas. In this supplement you will find a collection of
subclasses that have to do with the aforementioned topics; a
darker side for each class.
Barbarian Path of the
Deathsworn
The Deathsworn are Barbarians that dedicate their whole
lives to Death and how to best balance on the thin line that
separates the living from...the rest.
Deathsworn Barbarians form small tribes. They cherish
Undeath and believe it is the ultimate state of being. They
often worship a Lich, a Dracolich or other similar creatures.
Death's Embrace
At 3rd level, when a Deathsworn comes close to death, they
become stronger. While raging, when your hit points are less
than half of your maximum hit points (rounded down), you
are embraced by Death; you add your proficiency bonus to
your damage rolls.
Whenever you reduce a creature to 0 hit points you can
choose to gain temporary hit points equal to your Barbarian
level. After you get temporary hit points from this trait a
number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, you need a
long rest to be able to benefit from this again.
Undying
Also at 3rd level, when you are unconscious, if you were
raging, you make death saving throws with advantage. You
can only benefit from Undying once per long rest.
Dead Tongue
At 6th level, you gain the ability to cast the Speak with Dead
and Animate Dead spells, but only as rituals, as described in
chapter 10 of the Player's Handbook. Additionally, you can
only raise the dead as a Minion of the Deathsworn and not as
a Zombie or a Skeleton as the spell describes even if you
used the spell from a Spell Scroll or through a magic item.
Rotten Army
At level 10, you imbue your undead army with the strength of
the Deathsworn. When you activate your rage, any undead
creature within 30 feet radius gains your Strength modifier
as Temporary hit points. The undead can get temporary hit
points through Rotten Army once per day (resets the next
dawn).
Legion of the Deathsworn
When you reach level 14, while you are raging you can cast
Animate Dead as part of your Attack action by replacing one
of your attacks with casting the spell, or as an action up to a
number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long
rest. You can only cast it this way if you cast it on a creature
that has been killed within the past round.

Items for a Deathsworn Barbarian
This section consists of some magical items that a DM can
include in a campaign which are to be used (or best suited to
be used) by a Barbarian who has chosen the Path of the
Deathsworn.
War Paint
Wondrous item, common (requires attunement)
This War Paint was created by a legendary orcish
wardrummer that used to enhance the abilities of his
comrades.
Each time you use War Paint you have to attune to it. You
must choose a shape from the ones described below to gain a
benefit. The benefits last until you take a long rest. You can
only have one shape on you and only once. Only one person
can benefit from the War Paint at a time. The bucket that you
find the War Paint has enough paint for 4d10 uses.
Claws: When you drop down to half of your maximum hit
points (rounded up), your Unarmed Strikes deal damage
equal to 1d6 + your Strength modifier. If you have made an
Unarmed Strike using your attack action you can use your
bonus action to make another Unarmed Strike.
Helmet: When you succeed on your death saving throws,
you regain 1 hp at the start of your turn. This can only be
used once per long rest.
Shield: When you drop down to half of your maximum hit
points (rounded up), you gain a +2 to your AC.
Shield of Thorns
Shield, uncommon
Grants +2 to AC like a normal shield.
Whenever a creature deals melee weapon damage to you,
they suffer 1d4 piercing damage.
Crown of the Mad King
Crown, very rare (requires attunement)
This crown is rumored to have been forged in the hottest
fires of the Nine Hells and everyone that has worn it met with
a horrible end…coincidentally.
Add your Charisma modifier on the attack or damage
rolls of all creatures (your choice for each creature) that you
control and are within a 30-foot-radius distance from you on
each of their attacks.
Sword of the Deathgod
Sentient sword, legendary (requires attunement)
The loyal sword of the last Deathgod. It has controlled armies
of undead for centuries. It is said to have driven its last owner
mad.
The sword is sentient (chaotic evil) and has an
Intelligence score of 12, a Wisdom score of 8 and a Charisma
score of 20. It communicates telepathically with its wielder
and insists on being carried at all times. If the wielder does
not abide, they must make a Charisma saving throw with a
DC of 18. On a success, the sword cannot influence its
wielder's mind until the next dawn. On a failure, the wielder
must carry the item or use it in battle.
Whenever you reduce a creature to 0 hit points, the sword
automatically casts Animate Dead. The sword controls the
creatures that spawn from the Animate Dead Spell.
If the wielder fails on a total of 10 Charisma saving
throws against the sword's will, the sword will attempt to
take over its wielder. The wielder must then make a DC 15
Charisma saving throw. On a failure, the sword completely
controls the wielder as if a Curse was bestowed upon them.
 Unholy Sound
Bard College of the At 14th level, when you use Metallic Scream, you can roll a

Scream Performance check. The result is the DC of your Spell Save

for the Metallic Scream effects.

Bards of the College of the Scream put passion above

everything else. Calm music is not their style. Instead, they
prefer going louder and perform intense pieces. They hinder
all other colleges and only exchange stories and songs with
bards from the same college.
The dark nature of their songs and arts has associated
them with demonic influence, but that is false; it is obviously
devilish! Bards from this college have a deep connection with
Devils and mostly Imps. They search for partners that they
can enter in contracts with and support each other on their
mutual (or not so mutual) cause.

Hellish Origins
When you reach level 3, you add the spell Find Familiar to
your spell list, but can only summon an Imp through it. The
spell counts as a bard spell for you, but doesn't count against
the number of bard spells you know.
Additionally, you can enter in contract with a willing
creature. The Imp summoned from Find Familiar must be
present for the contract. For the next 7 days you both gain +2
to your rolls regarding helping each other. For example,
potions heal for 2 extra points, healing spells heal for 2 extra
points, when one of you uses Help for each other the creature
making the roll has an additional +2, etc.
The contract must be in the form of a deal, meaning that
both of you have to set terms and follow them. The Imp (from
your Find Familiar spell) dictates if the contract has broken.
If a contract breaks at any point, the creature that broke it is
cursed to have -2 to any of their rolls for 7 days.
You can only have 1 active contract at a time and by the
end of it the terms must be met by both parties. If not, you
both suffer -2 to any of your rolls for 7 days.
The Imp can carry one musical instrument for you. It can
disappear with it when you dismiss it and appear with it
when you summon it. It also has proficiency with it.

Metallic Scream
Also at 3rd level, you learn to use your voice to harm
creatures. You can use a Bardic Inspiration as an action to
produce a Metallic Scream. Creatures in a 15-foot-radius
around you must make a Wisdom saving throw against your
spell save DC. On a failure, they suffer 2d6 force damage and
are frightened of you. On a success, nothing happens. Deaf
creatures are immune to the effects of Metallic Scream.
The damage increases to 3d6 at 6th level, 4d6 at 11th
level and 5d6 at 16th level.

Breakdown
At 6th level, when a creature that you are in contract with
makes a successful attack, you can use your reaction and
expend a Bardic Inspiration to add your bard level to the
damage roll. You can use your reaction after the attack is
deemed successful but before damage is rolled.

the creature’s Charisma score is equal to or higher than
yours, the spell fails.

Cleric Demon Cult
Domain
Some Clerics are devoted priests that cure men and women
for free throughout the land. Some preach in the name of
their holy Gods. Others sacrifice babies to demons.
Clerics of the Demon Cult are distant, disturbed and
dangerous members of society. Most societies would shun
them on sight. That's why most Demon Cult Clerics keep
their lifestyle hidden in plain sight. They worship Demons
and, depending on the type of the demon, they make
sacrifices to gain otherworldly powers.
Blessing of the Wicked
At 1st level, you know Abyssal and gain proficiency in the
Religion skill. Whenever you make a Religion check
regarding demons, you double your proficiency bonus for that
check.
Scent of Death
Also at 1st level, after you roll for Initiative, your damage and
healing rolls increase by 1 (maximum your proficiency bonus)
for every creature that is reduced to 0 hit points during the
encounter within 120 feet of you. After the encounter is over,
you lose these bonuses.
Channel Divinity: Summon
Demonoids
Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to
summon Demonoids that disrupt your enemies.
As an action, you stab yourself with your holy symbol
suffering 1d4 piercing damage. Demonoids are gathered
around by the smell of your blood. You designate a target
within 120 feet of you. The Demonoids do their best to mess
with the target. Consult the Demonoid Effects table below to
determine which effect takes place at the start of each of your
turns based on the damage you suffered. The Demonoids
remain on the target for one minute and have an AC of 10 +
your proficiency bonus and 5 + your Wisdom modifier hit
points. They are considered a Swarm. If they die, the effects
of your Channel Divinity end.
Decaying Magic
At 6th level, when a cantrip or a spell of yours damages a
creature, you can use your bonus action to half their feet of
movement until the end of their next turn.
Desecrated Ground
At 8th level, you can desecrate a 30-foot radius area around
you. The process takes up to 1 hour and you need to be
Concentrating on it. Creatures within the area are immune to
radiant damage. Additionally, Demonoids in the area from
the Summon Demonoids Channel Divinity, have 2 effects
instead of 1. You suffer 1d4 damage again to determine
the extra effect. If you roll the same effect twice, reroll unless
the effect stacks naturally like the 2nd and 3rd effect.
You can use Desecrated Ground once per long rest.
Demonic Litany
At level 17, you can use up your entire turn to summon a CR
7 Demon at the start of your next turn. To begin summoning
the Demon, you must not move, use an action, a bonus action
or a reaction until the start of your next turn. The Demon is
uncontrollable by you but will aid you and your allies in battle
as the DM sees fit. In the presence of a Demon from the
Demonic Litany, Demonoids from the Summon Demonoids
Channel Divinity cause all four effects every turn.
You can use Demonic Litany once per long rest.

the creature instantly dies or is restored to their maximum hit

Druidic Circle of the
Fungus
Fungus is life and death combined. Some druids prosper in
that circle and worship the fungi. They are considered evil by
most people but in truth they just cherish both death and life.
For them, "passing away" is not a sad event, but a case for
celebration, since it is the cycle of life.
Symbiotic Spores
When you choose this circle at 2nd level, you have the ability
to infuse an ally within 5 feet of you with spores, as an action.
You can have a number of spores active at a time equal to
your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1). Through these spores
you can communicate telepathically at any given time with
anyone that is infected. You have to be within 60 feet from a
target in order to exchange thoughts. You don't need to know
their exact location, as long as they are within 60 feet of you.
Also, the infected targets can communicate between
themselves but every infected creature (and you) can hear the
exchange. As an action, you can remove a spore and add it
back to your body.
Fungus Skin
Also at 2nd level, when you use your Wildshape, you can
choose to cover yourself with a number of fungi equal to your
Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1). The appearance of the
creature shifts accordingly and you gain Resistance to
poison damage. Also, whenever someone lands a
hit on you, one of your fungi explodes dealing
1d6 damage to everyone around you within
a radius of 5 feet.
When all of your fungi explode, you lose the
effects of the Fungus Skin.
Assume Control
At 6th level, while in humanoid form, you can use your
Symbiotic Spores on your enemies. Make a ranged spell
attack. On a hit, the spores connect with the creature and can
only be removed if the creature takes a full action to make a
Strength (Athletics) check (DC equals your spell save DC).
You can use your bonus action each turn to cast the spell
Command to any enemy creature that is infected by your
Symbiotic Spores. Each time you issue a command, the
creatures must make a Wisdom saving throw against your
spell save DC. On a success, they are not affected by
Command this turn.
Rotten Grasp
At 10th level, you have always prepared the spell Grasping
Vine and it does not count against your prepared spells. You
can cast the spell for free if the point of origin of the spell is
from a dead creature.
Lord of the Flies
At level 14, you always have the benefits of Fungus Skin,
even in your humanoid form. In addition, the number of fungi
that cover your body are unlimited and the damage increases
to 2d6 + your Wisdom modifier.
Also, when you use Assume Control, instead of
Command, you cast Suggestion.
Finally, your Rotten Grasp deals damage equal to 2d6 +
your Wisdom modifier.
 Nature's Visage
2nd-level illusion
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: V
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
You utter a word and instantly transform into one of the
following things (your choice). You can choose if your
equipment morphs into your new body, drops to the ground
or remains on you. If you lose concentration, you immediately
revert back to your normal form.

• A 30-foot tall tree with an AC of 8 and 12 hit points.

• A boulder with an AC of 12 and 10 hit points.
• A puddle with an AC of 5 and 2 hit points.

You are undisguisable from a natural tree, boulder or

puddle. If a creature can see through illusions, they can see
through Nature's Visage. If you are damaged during Nature's
Visage and the damage exceeds your form's hit points, the
damage carries over.

Fighter Tormentor
The Tormentor Martial Archetype is for creatures that have
dedicated their whole lives into ruining their opponents'
bodies. They specialize in hitting vital spots on a body and
torturing someone without killing them.
Tormentors are rough folks to travel with. They think of
their enemies as toys and can be an obstacle in finishing
them off quite often, but can gather any information by every
means possible.
Master of the Needle
When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you master the
ability to keep someone you damage alive. When you would
drop someone to 0 hit points, you can instead choose to let
them drop to 1 hit point, thus keeping them conscious and
alive.
Additionally, when you attack a Grappled enemy, you
have advantage on the attack rolls and you add your
proficiency bonus to your damage rolls.
Tormentor's Gaze
Also at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in the Intimidation skill.
If you are already proficient, you add double your proficiency
bonus on your checks. This does not stack with Expertise.
Ruiner
A Tormentor can apply effects that ruin a creature's body.
When you reach 7th level, after landing two consecutive
attacks on a target, you can attempt to apply one effect to
them as a bonus action. The target must make a Constitution
saving throw against a DC equal to 8 + your proficiency
bonus + your Charisma modifier. On a success, they resist
the effect. On a failure, choose one of the following effects:
Go for the Eyes: The target suffers the effects of
Blindness until the end of their next turn.
No Escape: The target's movement is halved until the
end of their next turn.
Numb Arms: The target's attacks that rely on their arms
are made with disadvantage until the end of their next turn.
Open Wounds: Attacks on the target deal a 1d4 extra
weapon damage until the start of their next turn.
Brutalizer
At 10th level, when you lethally reduce a creature to 0 hit
points, you can use Brutalizer as a bonus action to brutally
murder your target. Every enemy that can see the act within
30 feet must make a Wisdom saving throw against a DC
equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma
modifier. On a failure they are frightened of you. At the end of
their turn they can attempt the saving throw again.
Deeper Cuts
At 15th level when you attack a target that you have already
damaged, you can use your bonus action to add your Fighter
level to one of your damage rolls. You can do this once per
encounter.
Art of the Torture
At 17th level, you have reached the peak of the torture. You
are a master Tormentor.
When you attack a Grappled creature successfully, you
score a critical hit.
All of your Ruiner effects last until the encounter is over.
When you use Brutalizer, you can use Tormentor's Gaze
to set the DC instead of your normal DC.
You can use Deeper Cuts to add your Fighter level for
each of your damage rolls for one turn instead of one damage
roll.

Items for a Tormentor
This section consists of some magical items that a DM can
include in a campaign which are to be used (or best suited to
be used) by a Fighter who has chosen the Tormentor Martial
Archetype.
Needles of Agony
Darts, common
The Needles of Agony come with a small chest filled with
ornaments and intricate design. There are 10d4 needles in
the chest.
The Needles have the same properties as a Dart from the
Player's Handbook, but deal magic damage. Each successful
hit with a Needle of Agony on the same target deals an extra
1d4 damage (for example, the first hit deals 1d4, the second
deals 2d4, the third 3d4, etc.).
Mask of Pain
Mask, uncommon (requires attunement)
Donning this Mask allows you to emit an ominous aura as a
bonus action, until you decide to stop the effects as a free
action. You gain advantage to Intimidation checks against
creatures that can see the mask but gain disadvantage to
stealth checks due to the fact that creatures can feel your
aura.
Additionally, if a creature wears the mask without
attuning to it, they have to make a DC 12 Wisdom saving
throw. On a failure, the mask attaches to their face and deals
1 damage to them at the start of their turn. This damage
cannot be reduced in any way. A creature can repeat the
saving throw at the end of their turn but the DC goes up by 2
every time they fail. On a success, they remove the mask.
Hand of Fate
Glove, very rare (requires attunement)
This glove is made of gold and has a single ruby upon it. Once
per long rest, you can activate it to completely nullify the
damage of an attack (as a reaction) or to double the damage
of one of your attacks (as a bonus action).
Orb of Revelations
Wondrous item, legendary
This is said to be the eye of a Deva. When you hold it up
against a creature and ask a question, you can hear whispers
giving you the answer that the creature knows to be correct
even if the creature is unwilling to talk to you or dead. You
can use this once per short rest. If you attempt to use it more
times, you roll a percentile die. If you roll higher than your
level, a Planetar descends from the sky to fight you to the
death for abusing the power of the Orb.
Monk Way of the Oni

At 3rd level, when you choose this Monastic Tradition, you
become proficient with a two-handed, heavy weapon with
reach of your choice. The chosen weapon now counts as a
Guandao for you.

Step of the Oni

Additionally, at level 3, when you successfully attack a
creature with your Guandao, you can expend 1 ki point as a
bonus action and become invisible until the start of your next
turn or until you move more than 5 feet away from the

• Oni Mask
Items for a Monk of the Oni
This section consists of some magical items that a DM can
include in a campaign which are to be used (or best suited to
be used) by a Monk that has chosen the Way of the Oni.
Spirit Tag
Wondrous item, common
The Spirit Tag is said to be able to hold magic in it and
release it in wild forms. The Spirit Tag's level is 1d4. When a
spell is cast against you, you can use your reaction to store its
power in the Spirit Tag. If the spell's level is equal to the
Spirit Tag's level or lower, the Spirit Tag absorbs the spell
and you can use it as an action. If the level of the spell is
higher, then the Spirit Tag turns into ashes, without affecting
Mask, uncommon (requires attunement)
When you wear Oni Mask, you can move up, down and
across vertical surfaces and upside down along ceilings. You
need both your hands and both your feet to climb. You have a
climbing speed equal to your walking speed.
Additionally, during a fight, you can use 1 hit die to
regenerate hit points as a bonus action. You can do this a
number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, as long as
you have hit dice to spare.
Beads of the Sixth Sense
Wondrous item, very rare
If you concentrate for 1 minute, as if you were concentrating
on a spell, you gain 60 feet blindsight for 10 minutes. You can
use this ability once per long rest.
Dynast's Guandao
Weapon, legendary (requires attunement)
The Dynast's Guandao has the same properties as the
Halberd or the Glaive. When you land a hit with this weapon,
you can attack again. You can attack a number of times equal
to your Dexterity or Strength modifier (your choice) per
round, as long as your attacks are successful.
Paladin of the Seven
Deadly Sins
Paladins of the Seven Deadly Sins devote themselves into
one of the Seven Sins. They are evil in nature and uphold
their chosen sin as the holiest of actions. As they follow the
path of their chosen sin, their appearance might change.
You can choose only one sin to follow.
Tenets of the Sin
The tenets of the Oath of the Seven Deadly Sins vary by the
chosen sin. These paladins want people to indulge in their
chosen sin.
Spread the Sin: The chosen sin must be spread
throughout the world. Sinning is not to be feared. It is to be
embraced.
Protect the Sin: The Paladin must protect the other
Paladins of the Sin even if their sins are not the same.
Become the Sin: The chosen sin must appropriately be
represented by the Paladin. Maybe a Paladin of Gluttony is
enormous while a Paladin of Wrath is prone to anger.
Envy
Also, if they move, they must move towards the target you
designated. If the distance between the two targets becomes
greater than 30 feet Hateful Enemy no longer takes effect.
Additionally, at the end of their turns, the enemy can repeat
their Charisma saving throw.
Materialistic Entity
When you reach level 10, any attempts made against you or
your allies within 30 feet of you to steal something from you
are made with disadvantage, even if you are not aware of the
act.
Additionally, if you notice a creature having something
similar of yours, but better (for example you have a
Shortsword and they have a Shortsword +1), you add your
Ability Modifier twice on your damage rolls against them.
Ties of Envy
Beginning at 15th level as a bonus action you can create Ties
of Envy in the battlefield. All creatures within 60 feet of you
are affected. If during the battle, the creatures attack anyone
else except from the last non-incapacitated target they
attacked (including with Area of Effect abilities) they must
make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On
a failure, they are Stunned until the start of their next turn
and they suffer 3d8 necrotic damage. On a success, they
suffer half as much damage. Can be used once per long rest.

Channel Divinity
When you choose this oath at level 3, you gain the following
two Channel Divinity Options:
Copycat: As a reaction, you can attempt to copy the spell
an enemy just casted and cast it on any target of your choice.
You cannot copy a spell for which you do not have a spell slot
and you must cast it at the same level they casted it. Roll a
d20. If you roll 10 or above, you succeed and you can cast the
spell within your reaction. On a failure, nothing happens.
Malice: As a bonus action, choose an enemy within 60
feet of you. Your hatred for the particular enemy disrupts
their ability to do anything. As long as you do not damage
another target except for the chosen enemy, the target has
disadvantage to their attack rolls. At the end of their turn they
can make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC Envy Incarnate
to remove this effect. At level 20, you can use Hateful Enemy whenever you make a
successful attack roll against an enemy (no need for a divine

creature starve. As an action, you choose a creature within 30
feet to make a Constitution saving throw against your spell
save DC. On a failure, the creature suffers a level of
Exhaustion and your feeding needs are met for the day. On a
success, nothing happens.
Force-feed: You can use your Channel Divinity to fuel an
ally with hunger. As a bonus action, choose an ally within 30
feet of you. If they want to resist the effect, they must succeed
on a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On a
failure (or if they choose to fail the saving throw), they
immediately use their reaction to make a Bite attack (+6 to
hit, deals 1d4 + their Strength modifier Piercing damage) on
a target within 5 feet of them. On a success, they heal for as
much damage as they dealt with the Bite attack. Neither the
attacker, nor the attacked can be a Construct.
Never-ending Hunger
Beginning at 7th level, the sin of Gluttony starts taking its toll
on you. You can feed on anything that you can chew, from
grass to soft wood to corpses and all of it tastes delicious. As

Force-feed) a number of times equal to your Constitution
modifier per long rest.

hours.
Aura of Lethargy
When you reach level 7, every creature of your choice within
60 feet around you have their maximum feet of movement
reduced by 10 (minimum of 10). Up to 10 creatures of your
choice within range have their AC reduced by 2, as well (this
applies before Shackles of the Sloth).
Flesh of the Slug
At level 10, as a reaction, when you suffer damage from a
creature you can see, you can attempt to redirect some of it
back at them. You can use Flesh of the Slug after the attack is
deemed successful but before damage is rolled. Make a
ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, they suffer
half the damage (rounded down) they dealt to you.
Beacon of Apathy
Beginning at 15th level, as an action, you can attempt to fill
with apathy each creature that suffers penalties to their feet
of movement. Every creature of your choice that had their

of times equal to half your Paladin level (minimum of 1) per
long rest.
Channel Divinity
When you choose this oath at level 3, you gain the following
two Channel Divinities:
Wrath Manifested: As a bonus action, you can ignite a
weapon you are using with hellish fire. Your weapon deals
1d6 extra fire damage for 1 minute. At level 5, 9, 13 and 17
the fire damage increases by 1d6.
Eyes of Hell: As a bonus action, you can attempt to
Intimidate a target. Roll an Intimidation check. The result

against the DC you set. On a failure, they are frightened of
you for 1 minute. They can repeat their saving throw at the
end of their turn. If they move more than 60 feet away from
you, they are no longer frightened.
Pummeling Strikes
At level 7, as part of your action, you can choose to double the
amount of attacks you can do with your attack action but all
of the damage you deal with Pummeling Strikes is halved
(rounded down). If you do Pummeling Strikes while Fury of

Items for a Paladin of the Seven
Deadly Sins
This section consists of seven legendary magical items (one
for each sin) that a DM can include in a campaign and can
only be used by a Paladin of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Amulet of Envy
Wondrous item, legendary (requires attunement)
The Amulet of Envy has 10 charges. As a bonus action, you
expend one charge and aim this amulet at a creature of your
choice within 60 feet of you. The target must be able to see
you in order for this to work. The creature makes a DC 18
Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, they must use their
reaction and rush towards you following the fastest path.
If the creature comes within 5 feet of you, the Amulet
uses up one more charge and unleashes an explosion against
creatures within 5 feet of you (except from you) dealing
5d6+12 force damage.
The Amulet regains 1d10 charges on each dawn.
Box of Gluttony
Wondrous item, Legendary (requires attunement)
The Box of Gluttony looks like a simple box that is also
withered on the outside. The Box of Gluttony can turn into a
Mimic that is allied to the person it is attuned with. As a
bonus action, you can give a general order to the Box of
Gluttony and the Box will follow it to its completion as best as
it can. While it is in its Box form, it acts as a Bag of Holding,
but will devour any type of food.
If the Box is not fed at least once daily, it turns into a Bag
of Devouring and the next time that it is summoned as a
Mimic, it will be hostile to the person it is attuned with.
Golden Eye of Greed
Wondrous item, legendary (requires attunement)
For as long as the item is in your possession, you instinctively
know the exact amount of money creatures within 15 feet of
you carry.

within you. If you do so, as an action, you can cast
Disintegrate from your eye. The DC for the Dexterity saving
throw is 17. You can only cast Disintegrate against a hostile
target that is within 15 feet of you and holds the most gold. If
the creature carries no gold on them, the spell fails.
You can use Disintegrate through the Golden Eye of
Greed once per dawn.
Ring of Lust
Wondrous item, legendary
A creature that wears this ring will suffer the Forever curse.
Crest of Pride
Wondrous item, legendary (requires attunement)
Donning the Crest of Pride grants you immunity to the Fear
condition. Your AC increases by 1 and as a reaction, when
you suffer damage from a creature that is within your melee
range, you suffer half the damage (rounded down) and get an
attack of opportunity against them. You can use this effect
twice per long rest.
Corrupted Longbow of Sloth
Longbow, legendary (requires attunement)
The Corrupted Longbow of Sloth enchants normal arrows to
deal 1d8 necrotic damage or radiant damage (your choice)
instead of piercing damage. If the damage of the arrow is
amplified in any way, the arrow deals an extra 1d8 force
damage and causes a magical explosion. In case of the
magical explosion, every creature within 5 feet of the original
target must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw. On a
failure, they suffer 1d8 force damage. On a success, they
suffer none.
Black Armguard of Wrath
Armguard, legendary (requires attunement)
Your AC increases by 2, as if you are carrying a shield, but
the Black Armguard of Wrath does not occupy a hand. When
an attack is made against you, you can use your reaction to
increase your AC by 3 until the start of your next turn.
When you reduce a creature to 0 hit points, you can use a
bonus action to absorb the life essence of the creature. This
will kill the creature. You gain temporary hit points equal to
the target's Constitution score (not modifier).
Ranger Archetype of
the Devilhound
Rangers of this archetype have a higher connection with a
Devilhound. They trade one of their eyes for the Devilhound's
and they gain its senses at will as well as great control over
such a wild beast. They walk together through the land
hunting their targets and spreading fear.
Eyes of the Devil
At 3rd level, when you choose this Archetype you share your
vision with your Devilhound by trading one of your eyes with
one of theirs. This is a pact you make when you first summon
your Devilhound. You gain the Summon Devilhound spell.
Summon Devilhound is described below and can be cast as a
ritual. As a free action, you can look from the Devilhound's
eyes.
Add your proficiency bonus to the beast's AC, attack rolls
and damage rolls, as well as to any saving throws and skills it
is proficient with.
Summon Devilhound
1st-level conjuration (ritual)
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 5 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: Permanent
A portal from the Nine Hells opens and your Devilhound
arrives within 5 feet of you in an unoccupied space. The
Devilhound goes either exactly before you or exactly after
you (you decide). You can control the Devilhound as long
as they are within 300 feet from you. You can still share
its senses but you cannot control it if it is further than 300
feet away from you. You can have only one Devilhound up
at a time.
The Hunt
At level 7, when you reduce a creature to 0 hit points, you can
initiate The Hunt at the start of your next turn. During The
Hunt, your senses are heightened and you receive the
following benefits:
• When you score a critical hit with an attack, you roll
damage thrice instead of twice.
• When you are damaged you can use a reaction to move up
to half your feet of movement without triggering attacks of
opportunity.
• When you damage someone, every time they suffer
damage, they suffer an extra 1d6 weapon damage.
• You have blindsight 30 feet against creatures that have
been damaged.
The Hunt lasts until the start of your next turn. Its
duration extends for an extra round if you reduce a creature
to 0 hit points again.
Ascended Houndmaster
Starting at 11th level, your Devilhound gains an Extra Attack.
Additionally, as a bonus action you can swap places with
your Devilhound. This bonus action provokes attacks of
opportunity in both points (yours and the Devilhound’s) after
the swapping is completed.
Finally, you can choose as a reaction to share the damage
you or the Devilhound suffers, with each other (in case of a
decimal halved damage, you can choose which one of you
receives the rounded down total and who receives the
rounded up). If you are both targeted by the same damage
source you cannot share the damage. You must decide if you
will share the damage after the attack is deemed successful,
but before damage is rolled.
Master of The Hunt
Beginning at 15th level, whenever you reduce a creature to 0
hit points, the effects of The Hunt apply to you for 1 minute.
 You stand still for the casting time and become one with the
environment. You are invisible as long as you do not move
more than 5 feet away from your initial position.

Rogue Shadowborn
Shadowborn rogues are rare creatures. They delve deep into
dark chambers under the ground and are tempered in the art
of mastering the shadows. They become one with them and
they control them.
Shadow Deep
Starting at 3rd level when you choose this archetype, you can
submerge yourself into your own shadow and reappear from
another shadow. Instead of moving somewhere, you can
choose to teleport to a distance up to your remaining feet of
movement. This movement does not provoke attacks of
opportunity. You must teleport within 5 feet of an object or a
creature that can cast a shadow. The range is not affected by
the use of Dash and you must be able to see your target.
After the teleport is complete, your next attack until the
end of your turn is a sneak attack if you have not already
made a sneak attack this turn.
You can use Shadow Deep a number of times equal to
your proficiency bonus per encounter.
Shadowborn
Additionally, at 3rd level you gain 60 ft of Darkvision. If you
already have Darkvision, the distance is doubled.
Pockets of the Shade
Starting at 9th level, you have the ability to store and
summon things from five pocket dimensions. As a bonus
action you can store or retrieve an item to one of the five
dimensions. Only one item fits every pocket no matter how
small it may be. Four of the pocket dimensions are small in
size and can only fit one object that is not bigger than 2x2
feet. The fifth pocket dimension is larger and can fit up to a
Medium creature. There is no oxygen in the pocket
dimensions.
Arms of Ink
Also at level 9, during your turn, you can increase your melee
weapon attack range by 10 feet until the end of your turn.
Dark Betrayer
At 13th level, you can use your bonus action or your reaction
to turn a creature's shadow against it within 30 feet of you.
When used as a bonus action, you have advantage on your
attacks against the creature until the end of your turn. When
used as a reaction, an attacking enemy has disadvantage on
their attack rolls until the end of their turn. You can use Dark
Betrayer once as a bonus action and twice as a reaction per
encounter.
Umbraspawn
Starting at 17th level, instead of Uncanny Dodge you can use
Shadow Deep and avoid all of the damage. Doing so, reduces
your feet of movement by the distance you teleported until the
end of your next turn.

blood needles.
You can only target one creature with Blood Shot.

Haematosphere
Starting at 6th level, you can use your reaction to create a
shield of blood around you when an attack is made against

Pact Boon for the Hive Mind
The following is an additional Pact Boon for the Warlock.
Pact of the Brand
Your Patron brands you with a magical symbol at a part of
your body of your choice. Through it, your Patron can know
your location at any point, hear what you hear and see what
you see without you knowing. The brand cannot be removed
by anything less than a Wish or a Divine Intervention.
As a bonus action, you can Unleash the Brand. The brand
becomes visible on you even if it is under clothing and you
can either regain one Warlock Spell Slot or regain hit points
equal to your Warlock level plus your Constitution modifier.
You can Unleash the Brand once per long rest.
Hive Mind Eldritch Invocations
This section consists of some Eldritch Invocations that fit the
flavor of the Hive Mind Patron and the Pact of the Brand.
Eldritch Prestidigitation
You get the Prestidigitation cantrip if you don't already have
it. Its effects are altered by your Patron. Instead of the
original effects, you choose one of the following:
• You create an instantaneous, sensory effect that, if you
choose so, can only be perceived by the targeted creature.
You can impose disadvantage on their next sight-related
Perception check or hearing-related Perception check until
the end of their next turn.
• You are immune to minor fire damage (like from a candle
or a torch) until the start of your next turn. You are not
immune against magical fire or a medium and a major fire.
You can light or snuff out a candle, a torch or a small
campfire.
• You instantaneously clean or soil an object no larger than 1
cubic foot. You can also tear 1 cubic foot of fabric instantly.
• You make a color, a small mark, or a symbol appear on an
object or a surface for 1 hour. The mark is visible only to
creatures of your choice. Or you can just make it visible to
everyone.
• You create a nonmagical trinket that is obviously of no
worth that lasts for 10 minutes. You can transmute your
voice through this object if you are within 60 feet from it.
If you cast this spell multiple times, you can have up to
three of its non-instantaneous effects active at a time, and you
can dismiss such an effect as an action.

spell save DC. On a failure they are under the effects of
Nightmare or Deep Sleep as they are described below. On a
success, they wake up. You can do this once per short rest.
• Nightmare: The creature suffers force damage equal to
your Charisma score (not modifier) and wakes up. This
damage cannot be reduced in any way.

touch for at least the next hour. If they are damaged, they

Wizard School of
Inversion
The School of Inversion teaches its students to counter all
the other Arcane Traditions, through a mystical force that
utilizes the Void; an interdimensional plane that is thought to
erase any existence. Wizards that follow these teachings
highly revere Beholders, as they consider them one of the
purest forms of magic, believing they were born from the
Void and carefully studying their nature and capabilities.

Nullifier
At 2nd level, when you choose the School of Inversion, you
gain the ability to counter other Arcane Traditions.
Choose two schools at 2nd level, then again at 6th level,
at 10th level and finally at 14th level. You cannot choose the
same school twice. Each school grants you certain features or
spells that are detailed on the Nullification Table and the next
section.
The spells and features gained from Nullifier can only
affect spells whose level is equal to or lower than the highest-
level spell you know, unless specified otherwise.
They reappear on an unoccupied location of your choice
within 30 feet of you. On a success, nothing happens.
You can use Antimatter a number of times equal to your
proficiency bonus.

Call of the Beholder

Know thy Enemy
Beginning at 2nd level, you know the school of a spell that is
cast within 120 feet around you as long as it is of a level equal
or lower than the highest-level spell you know. By using

answer your call. When the portal opens, roll a d20. On an
odd number the Beholder acts as an ally to you and your
allies. On an even number the Beholder acts as an enemy to
you and your allies.
Once you use Call of the Beholder, you can use it again
after seven days have passed.

At level 6th, studying the Beholders for all your life, you have
managed to decipher part of their Antimagic Cone mechanics
so that you can use it for your benefit. As an action, you can
suspend the effects of a spell or magic item until the start of
the next round, within 30 feet of you.
You can use Beholder's Glimpse once per long rest.

Antimatter
Beginning level 10th, you have the ability to cease the
existence of a creature for a moment. As an action, you can
touch a creature within your melee range. The creature must
make a Charisma saving throw against your spell save DC.
On a failure, they disappear until the end of their next turn.

1d8 force damage.
The cantrip's potency increases when you reach higher

11th and 4d8 at level 17th.
Acidic Disruption
1st-level inversion
Casting Time: 1 action

permanently drops by 1. On a success, nothing happens.
Void Strikes
2nd-level inversion
Casting Time: 1 reaction
Range: 10 feet
Components: V, S, M (sawdust)
Duration: Instantaneous
When a creature lands a melee weapon attack against you,
you can use your reaction to reduce the damage dealt and
counter attack. You reduce the damage by 2d8 + your
Intelligence modifier and the creature must make an
Intelligence saving throw against your spell save DC. On a
failure, they suffer 2d8 + your Intelligence modifier points of
force damage. On a success, they suffer half as much. If you
reduce the damage to 0, you deal maximum damage instead.
At Higher Levels: For every spell level higher than 2nd
that the spell is cast, the die increases by 1d8 (both for the
damage reduction and the damage dealt).
Plasma Skin
3rd-level inversion
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: V, S
Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes
For the duration, your skin is covered in an alien-like liquid
material. When you cast this spell and as a bonus action on
subsequent turns you can choose to have resistance to all
bludgeoning, piercing and slashing damage or to all damage
done by magical means.
Crackling Ground
4th-level inversion
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M (a glass ball that shatters when the
spell is cast)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

Wall of Nothing
5th-level inversion
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 120 feet
Components: V, S, M (drop of black ink)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
A black wall of nothing springs into existence at a point you
choose within range. The wall appears in any orientation you
choose as a horizontal or vertical barrier or at an angle. It can
be free floating or resting on a solid surface. You can form it
into a hemispherical dome or a sphere with a radius of up to
10 feet, or you can shape a flat surface made up of ten 10-
foot-by-10-foot panels. Each panel must be contiguous with
another panel. In any form, the wall is 1/4 inch thick. It lasts
for the duration. If the wall cuts through a creature’s space
when it appears, the creature is pushed to one side of the
wall of your choice. Any creatures that attempt to pass
through the wall or are forced to pass through it must make a
Charisma saving throw against your spell save DC. On a
failure, they blink out of existence and appear on a plane of
existence of your choice (that you have knowledge of). On a
success, they are pushed back from where they tried to enter
the wall. If the spell ends before 1 minute has passed, the
target reappears in the space it left or in the nearest
unoccupied space if that space is occupied. Otherwise, the
target doesn’t return.
The wall is immune to all damage and can’t be dispelled
by dispel magic. However, a disintegrate spell destroys the
wall instantly.
The damaging effect deals 6d8+6 bludgeoning damage to
a number of creatures equal to your Intelligence modifier
within the area. The damage is considered magical.

other at the end of each of your turns.
The healing effect restores 6d8+6 hit points to a number

Paths of Malice
The Paths of Malice is an optional reward system for players
roleplaying evil characters. The way the Paths of Malice work
is that each player can choose a path. If the DM deems that
their actions suit the path they chose, then they can award
them a level in that path.
The Paths of Malice should be handled with great care by
both Dungeon Masters and players. While the benefits are
not powerful enough to break the balance of the game, they
can still be viewed as "trophies" from the players and they
may go out of their way to achieve them. That is not the way
they are meant to be used, but rather a way to reward honest,
evil roleplaying in a way that it has not been explored by D&D
before.
A non-restrictive rule you can follow to award these levels
is either when a player achieves something that embodies the
nature of the path or when they reach a certain level and the
player follows the path. The levels in which you
can award a Path Level are level 5 for the
first Level, level 10 for the second Level
and level 15 for the third Level.
Order of Chaos
The Order of Chaos dictates you
are an agent of pandemonium.
You bring chaos wherever you
go. You might act against the
laws of a certain authority or
directly harm or even dethrone
them and establish anarchy.
Unit of Chaos (Level 1): You
gain an obsession that expresses
itself in a physical way. You bite
your nails, scratch your skin or have
an irregular breathing pattern whenever
you are forced to obey anyone or anything.
Agent of Chaos (Level 2): Your obsession
manifests and takes the form of an invisible demon
or devil of your choice. The creature is Tiny in size, has
10 hit points, an Armor Class of 10 and no saving throws,
skills, senses or actions. The creature will stay by your side at
all times and if it dies it will come back to life after 24 hours.
The creature will do nothing to help you but neither harm
you. The creature will whisper obvious ways for you to
disrupt the authority of someone or some place. If you are
forced to do something against your will, you must make a
DC 10 Wisdom saving throw if the creature is alive. On a
failure, you do not follow the order even if its origin was from
a spell whose spell level was no higher than your proficiency
bonus.
Beacon of Chaos (Level 3): Your unpredictable nature and
your quest to disrupt authority has taken roots within your
soul altering your very existence. Whenever you roll a 1 or a
20, you can choose to roll on the Wild Magic Table. The
effects take place as if you were a Wild Magic Sorcerer.
Additionally, cracked runes appear all over your body.
Horde of Desecration
The Horde of Desecration holds nothing holy. They will break
and ruin everything that signifies faith or religion. The very
existence of a temple is an insult to a Desecrator and they
will vow its destruction.
Pawn of the Horde (Level 1): When you enter a sacred
place or walk on consecrated ground, your own body reacts
negatively and you suffer from a minor fever and headaches.
The sight of holy symbols disturbs you and sickens you,
forcing you to slightly avert your gaze.
Warrior of the Horde (Level 2): Your very existence is an
insult to people of the cloth. Whenever you deal damage with
a melee weapon attack against a creature that wears or
carries a holy symbol, you deal an extra amount of necrotic
damage equal to half your Strength or Dexterity modifier
(whichever you used for the attack, rounded down).
Desecrator of the Horde (Level 3): If you walk into a
consecrated ground it slowly becomes desecrated at a rate of
10 square feet per minute. Additionally, when you
deal necrotic damage, you ignore necrotic
damage resistance. Also, your veins
appear with a black taint and when you
bleed, its looks as if you bleed ink.
Law of Power
The Law of Power dictates that
only the strong can rule. The
weak have no place on this
world and they have to be
eradicated or left to rot. And
you are the one who will carry
this law and spread its words.
Bearer of the Law of Power
(Level 1): Whenever you
overpower a creature you feel
immense gratification, like a surge of
serotonin running through your veins.
In contrast, whenever you are overpowered
or are forced to flee you suffer far more than
anyone else. Your own body aches and you hold a
grudge against anyone that defeats you.
Knight of the Law of Power (Level 2): During combat,
your need to achieve victory overcomes you and fuels you.
You are pumped with adrenaline when you have to prove
yourself. When you roll for initiative you ignore one level of
exhaustion until you are out of the initiative order. If you are
defeated or are forced to flee, you gain one level of
exhaustion, if you do not already have any levels of
exhaustion.
Champion of the Law of Power (Level 3): When you fight
against a creature that is not an ally, you cannot deal non-
lethal damage. Whenever you reduce a creature to 0 hit
points you can take an additional bonus action in addition to
the normal one allotted to you. This can happen only once on
your turn. Additionally, the words from the book of the Law of
Power appear on your skin like a tattoo, irremovable by any
magical or mundane means short of a wish spell.
Sect of Treachery
Those that walk the path of the Sect of Treachery view
everyone around them as tools. There are no friends. There
are no allegiances. Only backs waiting to be stabbed. People
of the Sect find peace in solitude, for their minds must always
be racing to protect themselves and their secrets.
Worker of Treachery (Level 1): You are used to lying
about everything. You tend to weave a web of lies so complex
that sometimes you lose track. You are a compulsive liar and
people that stay with you for a while can pick this up.
Carrier of Treachery (Level 2): You have mastered the art
of hiding your intentions. You can never forget a lie you have
told unless your memory is altered.
Embodiment of Treachery (Level 3): Your name is
probably a lie that you told your own mother. You barely ever
speak the truth even for minor things like how are you feeling
or what did you eat for breakfast. When creatures make a
Wisdom (Insight) check against your Charisma (Deception)
check, they suffer a penalty to their roll equal to half your
proficiency bonus (rounded down). Additionally, when you
smile, your mouth distorts into impossible proportions.
Finally, your body now casts neither a shadow, nor a
reflection.

Circle of Sadism
The Circle of Sadism is a path trod by the worst of people;
those that enjoy inflicting pain...those that are excited by
screams of agony...
Omega Sadist (Level 1): Whenever someone feels hurt
because of you, you feel ecstatic. If a long time passes without
you hurting someone, you start hurting your own self or
people that are close to you. If you fail to do so, you cannot
sleep right at night (this does not impede your ability to
complete a long or a short rest), nightmares haunt you until
you make someone suffer.
Sigma Sadist (Level 2): Every time you hurt someone you
feel the need to push more. You roll with disadvantage when
you roll against effects that will force you to hurt someone
else and with advantage against effects that attempt to calm
you down or sedate you.
Alpha Sadist (Level 3): You are addicted to causing pain.
Whenever you hit someone with an attack that does not
reduce them to 0 hit points, your damage roll against them
deals 1 extra cumulative point of weapon damage.
Additionally, a tally of the number of people you have killed
appears on your body as scars and your teeth become pointy
and sharp allowing you to make a bite attack as an action that
deals 1d4 + your Strength or Dexterity modifier piercing
damage.

per long rest, you can activate it to completely nullify the
damage of an attack (as a reaction) or to double the damage
of one of your attacks (as a bonus action).
Obsidian Gloves

next turn.
Oni Mask

When you wear Oni Mask, you can move up, down and
across vertical surfaces and upside down along ceilings. You
need both your hands and both your feet to climb. You have a

hit dice to spare.

Mask of Pain Orb of Revelations

Mask, uncommon (requires attunement)
Donning this Mask allows you to emit an ominous aura as a
bonus action, until you decide to stop the effects as a free

creatures that can see the mask but gain disadvantage to
stealth checks due to the fact that creatures can feel your
aura.
Additionally, if a creature wears the mask without
attuning to it, they have to make a DC 12 Wisdom saving
throw. On a failure, the mask attaches to their face and deals
1 damage to them at the start of their turn. This damage

times, you roll a percentile die. If you roll higher than your
level, a Planetar descends from the sky to fight you to the
death for abusing the power of the Orb.

Spirit Tag
Wondrous item, common
The Spirit Tag is said to be able to hold magic in it and
release it in wild forms. The Spirit Tag's level is 1d4. When a
spell is cast against you, you can use your reaction to store its
power in the Spirit Tag. If the spell's level is equal to the
Spirit Tag's level or lower, the Spirit Tag absorbs the spell
and you can use it as an action. If the level of the spell is
higher, then the Spirit Tag turns into ashes, without affecting
the spell.

Sword of the Deathgod

Sentient sword, legendary (requires attunement)
The loyal sword of the last Deathgod. It has controlled armies
of undead for centuries. It is said to have driven its last owner

The sword is sentient (chaotic evil) and has an
Intelligence score of 12, a Wisdom score of 8 and a Charisma
score of 20. It communicates telepathically with its wielder
and insists on being carried at all times. If the wielder does
not abide, they must make a Charisma saving throw with a
DC of 18. On a success, the sword cannot influence its
wielder's mind until the next dawn. On a failure, the wielder
must carry the item or use it in battle.
Whenever you reduce a creature to 0 hit points, the sword
automatically casts Animate Dead. The sword controls the
creatures that spawn from the Animate Dead Spell.
If the wielder fails on a total of 10 Charisma saving
throws against the sword's will, the sword will attempt to
take over its wielder. The wielder must then make a DC 15
Charisma saving throw. On a failure, the sword completely
controls the wielder as if a Curse was bestowed upon them.

Umbrasword
Shortsword, legendary
As a bonus action, you can combine the Penumbral Dagger
and the Antumbral Dagger and create the Umbrasword. The
weapon deals 2d6 necrotic damage and 2d6 radiant damage.

you can cast Banishment to the target that you dealt the
