Masked Hero

Decree Magic

Starting at 3rd level, you learn an additional spell when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Assimiliation Spells table. The spell counts as a masked hero spell for you, but it doesn't count against the number of masked hero spells you know.

Words of Power

When you select this Decree at 3rd level, you acquire the skill of subtly weaving your words with magic. Whenever you cast the charm person spell, you can cast it without any somatic or verbal components.

In addition, you know the comprehend languages spell, and while your bonded device is on your person, you can cast it as a ritual. The spell doesn't count against your number of spells known.

Analysing Strike

At 3rd level, after using Deflective Strike, inquisitive energy envelops your blade. This unique energy lasts until the end of your next turn, and you can have only one of these on you at a time. The next time you hit an enemy creature on your turn with a melee weapon attack, you can expend this energy to force that creature to make an Intelligence saving throw against your masked hero spell save DC. On a failed save, the creature takes the damage dealt by your attack, and you can impose one of the following effects on it:

At 7th level, an enemy creature that has dealt damage to you since the end of your last turn has disadvantage on the Intelligence saving throw made for your Analysing Strike.

When you select this decree at 3rd level, you can manifest magical gauntlets to turn your unarmed strikes into heroic armaments. You gain the following benefit for your Masked Transformation:

Blazing Step

At 3rd level, after using Deflective Strike, you can use your reaction to teleport up to 10 feet to an unoccupied space that you can see, interrupting the current turn. That space must also be within 5 feet of an enemy creature that you can see.

After teleporting, you can either make one unarmed strike against that creature as part of the same action, or you can instead present your bonded device if it is on your person.

If you choose to do this, all enemy creatures that you can see within 5 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw against your masked hero spell save DC or take fire damage equal to 1d6 + your Constitution modifier on a failed saving throw, and half as much on a successful one.

You may expend one masked hero spell slot to deal an extra 1d6 fire damage after presenting your device, plus additional 1d6 for each spell slot level used higher than 1st, to a maximum of 5d6.

When you select this decree at 3rd level, you learn the art of eliminating your foes from a distance. You gain the following benefit for your Masked Transformation:

Intercepting Shot

At 3rd level, you learn how to identify high-priority threats in battle and intercept their attacks. When an enemy creature that you can see within your weapon's normal range hits you, or a friendly creaure that you can see, with an attack, you can expend one use of Deflective Strike as a reaction to make one special ranged weapon attack against that creature.

You may only make this attack with either a ranged weapon or a melee weapon that has the thrown property, and you must make this special attack before the triggering attack deals any damage.

This ranged weapon attack does not cost ammunition, and can be made without disadvantage while an enemy creature who can see you and who isn't incapacitated is within 5 feet of you. If this attack is made with a melee weapon that has the thrown property, that weapon returns to your hand immediately after the attack is made.

On a hit, the target takes the damage dealt by your attack, and unless its previous roll was a 20 on the d20, it must reroll its attack and use the new roll.

Otherwise, your special attack misses, and you may expend one masked hero spell slot to reduce the damage dealt by the triggering attack by 2d4, plus additional 1d4 for each spell slot level used higher than 1st, to a maximum of 5d4. You may only reduce the damage dealt by the triggering attack if your special attack had missed.

After using this feature, you may only attack once, instead of twice, when you take the Attack action on your next turn. If you are able to attack three times, instead of twice, whenever you take the Attack action, you may only attack twice instead. You cannot use this feature and Deflective Strike within the same round.

Harrowing Visage

When you select this Decree at 3rd level, your very presence can cause even the bravest of heroes to bow down before your might. You gain proficiency in the Intimidation skill if you don't already have it. In addition, whenever you make a Charisma (Intimidation) check on a creature that can see or hear you, treat a roll of 7 or lower on the d20 as a 8.

Corrosive Chains

At 3rd level, after using Deflective Strike, your soul manifests a dark, ravenous power. This dark energy lasts until the end of your next turn, and you can have only one of these within you at a time. As a bonus action on your turn, you can expend this dark energy to target an enemy creature that you can see within 10 feet of you. The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw against your masked hero spell save DC or take 1d6 acid damage, and be bound by black chains for 1 minute. The saving throw is made with disadvantage if the target has dealt damage to you since the end of your last turn.

While a creature is bound, its speed is reduced to 0, it can't benefit from any bonus to its speed, and it can't teleport by any means short of a 3rd-level spell or higher. At the end of each of its turns, it can make another Strength saving throw. On a success, the creature breaks free as the chains vanish. On a failure, the creature remains bound by the chains, and takes 1d6 acid damage once again.

You may choose to expend a masked hero spell slot when targeting an enemy creature to target an additional number of creatures equal to the slot's level, to a maximum of two additional creatures that you can see within 10 feet of you.

The acid damage increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 2d6 at 11th level.

Mark of Valour

When you select this decree at 3rd level, you can generate a Mark of Valour, a badge of honour meant only for the most bravest warriors. As an action, you can expend one use of Heroic Armaments to choose one creature that you can see within 5 feet of you. That creature gains a +1 bonus to its AC. This benefit lasts until that creature finishes a long rest, and ends early if that creature dies, dons medium or heavy armor, or a shield. A creature can have only one Mark of Valour at a time.

Aegis Rune

At 3rd level, after using Deflective Strike, you generate a rune called an Aegis Rune. This rune lasts until the end of your next turn, and you can have only one rune on you at a time. As a bonus action, you can expend this rune to choose one creature that you can see within 15 feet of you. That creature gains temporary hit points equal to a d6.

These temporary hit points lasts until they are depleted, or until that creature finishes a long rest. Whenever a creature has these temporary hit points, they can move on their turn without provoking opportunity attacks from enemy creatures.

You may expend one masked hero spell slot when granting these hit points to choose an additional number of creatures equal to the slot's level, to a maximum of three additional creatures that you can see within 15 feet of you.

These temporary hit points increase when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 2d6 at 11th level.

In addition, whenever you make a Wisdom (Insight) check on a creature that you have spent at least 1 minute interacting with, you can add your proficiency bonus twice to the check.

Judgement Blade

At 3rd level, after using Deflective Strike, you can use your reaction to make a melee spell attack against an enemy creature that you can see within 30 feet of you, interrupting the current turn.

The spell attack's damage is psychic, and its damage die is a d6. You can add your Wisdom modifier to the damage roll of this attack. Hit or miss, the target of this spell attack can't take reactions until the end of your next turn.

You may expend one masked hero spell slot to deal an extra 2d6 psychic damage after the spell attack hits, plus an additional 1d6 for each spell slot level used higher than 1st, to a maximum of 5d6.

The attack's damage die increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 1d8 at 7th level, and 1d10 at 11th level.

Servant of Miracles

When you select this decree at 3rd level, you gain the ability to call upon otherwordly creatures. You gain proficiency in the Animal Handling skill if you don't already have it.

In addition, you learn the find familiar spell, and while your bonded device is on your person, you can cast it as a ritual. The spell doesn't count against your number of spells known.

At 15th level, as an action, you can merge your familiar if it is within 30 feet of you with a bonded device that is on your person. You then gain a bonus to your masked hero spell-save DC equal to half your Constitution modifier while your device is on your person. After 1 hour has passed - or in the case you lose your device - your familiar reappears in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you while your device disappears, requiring you to replace it with another one.

Soul Charge

At 3rd level, after using Deflective Strike, you generate raw, divine energy. This radiant energy lasts until the end of your next turn, and you can store only one of these within you at a time. As a bonus action, you can expend this raw energy to choose one creature that you can see within 30 feet of you. That creature gains one Soul Charge, which equals to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one).

Once within the next 5 minutes, that creature can add this Soul Charge to one saving throw it makes. That creature can wait until after it rolls the d20 before deciding to use the Soul Charge, but must decide before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails. Once a Soul Charge is expended, it is lost. A creature can have only one Soul Charge at a time.

You may expend one masked hero spell slot when granting a Soul Charge to choose an additional number of creatures equal to the slot's level, to a maximum of three additional creatures that you can see within 30 feet of you.
