{"name":"Eorzean Rogue","overview":"[p]Signaling for her companions to wait, a halfling creeps forward through the dungeon hall. She presses an ear to the door, then pulls out a set of tools and picks the lock in the blink of an eye. Then she disappears into the shadows as her fighter friend moves forward to kick the door open.[br]\r\nA human lurks in the shadows of an alley while his accomplice prepares for her part in the ambush. When their target\u2014a notorious slaver\u2014passes the alleyway, the accomplice cries out, the slaver comes to investigate, and the assassin\u2019s blade cuts his throat before he can make a sound.[br]\r\nSuppressing a giggle, a gnome waggles her fingers and magically lifts the key ring from the guard\u2019s belt. In a moment, the keys are in her hand, the cell door is open, and she and her companions are free to make their escape.[br]\r\nRogues rely on skill, stealth, and their foes\u2019 vulnerabilities to get the upper hand in any situation. They have a knack for finding the solution to just about any problem, demonstrating a resourcefulness and versatility that is the cornerstone of any successful\r\nadventuring party.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Skill and Precision[\/h2]\r\nRogues devote as much effort to mastering the use of a variety of skills as they do to perfecting their combat abilities, giving them a broad expertise that few other characters can match. Many rogues focus on stealth and deception, while others refine the skills that help them in a dungeon environment, such as climbing, finding and disarming traps, and opening locks.[br]\r\nWhen it comes to combat, rogues prioritize cunning over brute strength. A rogue would rather make one precise strike, placing it exactly where the attack will hurt the target most, than wear an opponent down with a barrage of attacks. Rogues have an almost\r\nsupernatural knack for avoiding danger, and a few learn magical tricks to supplement their other abilities.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]A Shady Living[\/h2]\r\nEvery town and city has its share of rogues. Most of them live up to the worst stereotypes of the class, making a living as burglars, assassins, cutpurses, and con artists. Often, these scoundrels are organized into thieves\u2019 guilds or crime families. Plenty of rogues\r\noperate independently, but even they sometimes recruit apprentices to help them in their scams and heists. A few rogues make an honest living as locksmiths, investigators, or exterminators, which can be a dangerous job in a world where dire rats\u2014and\r\nwererats\u2014haunt the sewers.[br]\r\nAs adventurers, rogues fall on both sides of the law. Some are hardened criminals w ho decide to seek their fortune in treasure hoards, while others take up a life of adventure to escape from the law. Some have learned and perfected their skills with the explicit purpose of infiltrating ancient ruins and hidden crypts in search of treasure.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Creating a Rogue[\/h2]\r\nAs you create your rogue character, consider the character\u2019s relationship to the law. Do you have a criminal past\u2014or present? Are you on the run from the law or from an angry thieves\u2019 guild master? Or did you leave your guild in search of bigger risks and bigger rewards? Is it greed that drives you in your adventures, or some other desire or ideal?[br] \r\nWhat was the trigger that led you away from your previous life? Did a great con or heist gone terribly wrong cause you to reevaluate your career? Maybe you were lucky and a successful robbery gave you the coin you needed to escape the squalor of your life. Did wanderlust finally call you away from your home? Perhaps you suddenly found yourself cut off from your family or your mentor, and you had to find a new means of support. Or maybe you made a new friend\u2014another member of your adventuring party\u2014who showed you new possibilities for earning a living and employing your particular talents.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Quick Build[\/h2]\r\nYou can make a rogue quickly by following these suggestions. First, Dexterity should be your highest ability score. Make\r\nIntelligence your next-highest if you want to excel at Investigation or plan to take up the Arcane Trickster archetype. Choose Charisma instead if you plan to em phasize deception and social interaction. Second, choose the charlatan background.[\/p]","hitdice":"d8","hitpointsfirstlevel":"8 + your Constitution modifier","hitpointsathigherlevels":"1d8 (or 5) + your Constitution modifier per rogue level after 1st","armorproficiencies":"Light armor","weaponproficiences":"Simple weapons, hand crossbows, longswords, rapiers, shortswords","tools":"Thieves\u2019 tools","savingthrows":"Dexterity.

Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of the chosen proficiencies.[br]\r\nAt 6th level, you can choose two more of your proficiencies (in skills or with thieves\u2019 tools) to gain this benefit.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Sneak Attack[\/h2]\r\nBeginning at 1st level, you know how to strike subtly and exploit a foe\u2019s distraction. Once per turn, you can deal an extra 1d6 damage to one creature you hit with an attack if you have advantage on the attack roll. The attack must use a finesse or a ranged weapon. \r\nYou don\u2019t need advantage on the attack roll if another enemy of the target is within 5 feet of it, that enemy isn\u2019t incapacitated, and you don\u2019t have disadvantage on the attack roll. \r\nThe amount of the extra damage increases as you gain levels in this class, as shown in the Sneak Attack column of the Rogue table.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Thieves\u2019 Cant[\/h2]\r\nDuring your rogue training you learned thieves\u2019 cant, a secret mix of dialect, jargon, and code that allows you to hide messages in seemingly norm al conversation. Only another creature that knows thieves\u2019 cant understands such messages. It takes four times longer to convey such a message than it does to speak the same idea plainly.[br] \r\nIn addition, you understand a set of secret signs and symbols used to convey short, simple messages, such as whether an area is dangerous or the territory of a thieves\u2019 guild, whether loot is nearby, or whether the people in an area are easy m arks or will provide a safe house for thieves on the run.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Cunning Action[\/h2]\r\nStarting at 2nd level, your quick thinking and agility allow you to move and act quickly. You can take a bonus action on each of your turns in combat. This action can be used only to take the Dash, Disengage, or Hide action.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Roguish Archetype[\/h2]\r\nAt 3rd level, you aquire an archetype that you emulate in the exercise of your rogue abilities: Ninja, detailed at the end of the class description. Your archetype choice grants you features at 3rd level and then again at 9th, 13th, and 17th level. [\/p]\r\n\r\nAbility Score Improvement\r\nWhen you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 10th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can\u2019t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Uncanny Dodge[\/h2]\r\nStarting at 5th level, when an attacker that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the attack\u2019s damage against you. [\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Evasion[\/h2]\r\nBeginning at 7th level, you can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as a red dragon\u2019s fiery breath or an ice storm spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Reliable Talent[\/h2]\r\nBy 11th level, you have refined your chosen skills until they approach perfection. Whenever you make an ability check that lets you add your proficiency bonus, you can treat a d20 roll of 9 or lower as a 10.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Blindsense[\/h2]\r\nStarting at 14th level, if you are able to hear, you are aware of the location of any hidden or invisible creature within 10 feet of you.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Slippery Mind[\/h2]\r\nBy 15th level, you have acquired greater mental strength. You gain proficiency in Wisdom saving throws.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Elusive[\/h2]\r\nBeginning at 18th level, you are so evasive that attackers rarely gain the upper hand against you. No attack roll has advantage against you while you aren\u2019t incapacitated.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Stroke of Luck[\/h2]\r\nAt 20th level, you have an uncanny knack for succeeding w hen you need to. If your attack m isses a target within range, you can turn the m iss into a hit. Alternatively, if you fail an ability check, you can treat the d20 roll as a 20.[br] \r\nOnce you use this feature, you can\u2019t use it again until you finish a short or long rest.[\/p]","subclasses":"[p][h1]Ninja[\/h1]\r\nYou have chosen to study the art of the ninjas of Doma. These talented fighters have learned to channel the power from the world around them, the heavens, the earth and the hearts of man through the use of mudras or hand gestures. These traditional arts are passed down from master to student, father to son and mother to daughter. Their secrets are closely guarded by the practitioners. Each mudra carries meaning. The Ten mudras draws power from the heavens, while the Chi mudra draws power from the earth. Jin completes the triangle, drawing power from the hearts of man. Together, these mudras allow the ninja to draw power from the world they live in.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Shukuchi[\/h2]\r\nBeginning at the 3rd level you have learned the secrets of shukuchi. You instantaneously travel a maximum distance of 5ft. per rogue level. You may travel over gaps in the ground, but cannot scale walls using shukuchi. At the 13th level you leave behind an optional 15ft. cube of smoke. You may only use shukuchi when you make a hide ability check or while hidden. You must expend one use of your Ten mudra to use shukuchi.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Ninjutsu[\/h2]\r\nAs an action, you may cast ninjutsu by combining mudra together. Beginning at 3rd level you gain access to the mudra 'Ten'. At 9th level you gain access to the mudra 'Chi', and at 13th level you gain access to the mudra 'Jin'. You may use each mudra a number of times equal to half your rogue level rounded down. Your mudra refresh after completing a long rest.\r\n[h3]Ninjutsu[\/h3]\r\n[b]Ninjutsu | Combination[\/b][br]\r\nFuma | Any single mudra[br]\r\nShadon | Any single mudra[br]\r\nKaton | Any mudra and Ten[br]\r\nRaiton | Any mudra and Chi[br]\r\nHyoton | Any mudra and Jin[br]\r\nHuton | One of each of the mudras[br]\r\nDoton | One of each of the mudras[br]\r\nSuiton | One of each of the mudras[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Trick Attack[\/h2]\r\nBeginning at the 13th level you are able to perform a trick attack. When you attack an enemy with a sneak attack, you may expend one use of each mudra to perform a trick attack. On a successful attack roll, the target becomes vulnerable causing all attack rolls to have advantage against that creature for one round, beginning after your action.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Kassatsu[\/h2]\r\nBeginning at the 17th level, once a day as a bonus action, after using a ninjutsu you may use a second ninjutsu which requires one fewer mudra. Kassatsu refreshes after a short rest.[\/p]\r\n\r\n[p][h2]Ninjutsu Spell List[\/h2]\r\nIntelligence is the spell modifier for the following abilities. The spell casting focus for these spells is the caster's hands forming the required mudras. Spells cast through ninjutsu are cast at their base level. To cast ninjutsu at a higher spell level, you may spend the required mudra for the ninjutsu again to increase the spell level by one. You may spend mudra to increase the casting level to a maximum of the 9th level.[br]\r\n[h3]Fuma[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Fuma ninjutsu allows you to cast the Ice Knife spell.[br]\r\n[h3]Shadon[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Shadon ninjutsu allows you to cast the Darkness spell.[br]\r\n[h3]Katon[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Katon ninjutsu allows you to cast the Fireball spell at half the maximum range.[br]\r\n[h3]Raiton[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Raiton ninjutsu allows you to cast the Lightning Bolt spell at half the maximum range.[br]\r\n[h3]Hyoton[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Hyoton ninjutsu allows you to cast the Ice Storm spell at half the maximum range.[br]\r\n[h3]Huton[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Huton ninjutsu allows you to cast the Haste spell on yourself.[br]\r\n[h3]Doton[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Doton ninjutsu allows you to cast the Doton spell.[br]\r\n[h3]Suiton[\/h3]\r\nPerforming the Suiton ninjutsu allows you to cast the Suiton spell.[br]\r\n[small][b]Doton and Suiton[\/b]: These two spells are located in the Eorzean Rogue Spells [url:https:\/\/www.worldanvil.com\/sheet\/227640\/view]Doton[\/url] and [url:https:\/\/www.worldanvil.com\/sheet\/227656\/view]Suiton[\/url] documents.[\/small][\/p]","tabledata":"Level | Proficiency Bonus | Sneak Attack | Features\r\n1st | +2 | 1d6 | Expertise, Sneak Attack, Thieves\u2019 Cant\r\n2nd | +2 | 1d6 | Cunning Action\r\n3rd | +2 | 2d6 | Roguish Archetype\r\n4th | +2 | 2d6 | Ability Score Improvement\r\n5th | +3 | 3d6 | Uncanny Dodge\r\n6th | +3 | 3d6 | Expertise\r\n7th | +3 | 4d6 | Evasion\r\n8th | +3 | 4d6 | Ability Score Improvement\r\n9th | +4 | 5d6 | Roguish Archetype feature\r\n10th | +4 | 5d6 | Ability Score Improvement\r\n11th | +4 | 6d6 | Reliable Talent\r\n12th | +4 | 6d6 | Ability Score Improvement\r\n13th | +5 | 7d6 | Roguish Archetype feature\r\n14th | +5 | 7d6 | Blindsense\r\n15th | +5 | 8d6 | Slippery Mind\r\n16th | +5 | 8d6 | Ability Score Improvement\r\n17th | +6 | 9d6 | Roguish Archetype feature\r\n18th | +6 | 9d6|  Elusive\r\n19th | +6 | 10d6 | Ability Score Improvement\r\n20th | +6 | 10d6 | Stroke of Luck","tags":"rogue, ninja, class","templateId":"25","blockId":"227587","isShared":"1"}
