Herrscher of the Void

Rule Modifications

As an astral drifter, your hit dice and weapon proficiencies are altered when you first choose this origin at 3rd level. Any herrscher of the void hit dice that you have when you first choose this origin remain d10s. (The hit dice you gain when you first choose this origin becomes a d6.)

Subspace Armaments

When you first choose this origin at 3rd level, in exchange for giving up your martial prowess, you learn the ability to manifest the essence of the multiverse into a deadly weapon without needing to expend charges.

As an attack, you can summon a needle that radiates nothingness, firing it at an enemy. Make a ranged herrscher ability attack against a target that is within 45 feet of you. On a hit, the target is dealt 1d8 force damage. At 5th level, you can take this action twice per turn with extra attack.

The damage dealt by the needle and the effective range increase as you gain more levels as as a herrscher of the void. The damage dealt increases to 2d8 at 10th level and 3d8 at 17th level, and the needle's range increases to 60 feet at 13th level.

Phasing

The needle moves through objects until it reaches the target. You make the attack roll without being affected by any cover the target has.

Piercing

The needle can strike two targets, provided it is moving in a straight line and nothing is between both targets. Make a ranged herrscher ability against both targets. If the attack against the first target misses, the attack against the second target automatically misses.

Range

The needle's range is tripled.

Velocity

The needle's damage is increased by 2d8.

Altered Velocity

At 3rd level, when you choose this origin, your presence affects your choice of the pain or speed of those around you, even if you don't intend it. Choose one of the features shown below to gain.

Nebulous Will

Your presence affects the movement of those near you. At the beginning of each of your turns, a number of random creatures within 60 feet of you gain a hover speed equal to their speed for 1 round, hovering no more than 5 feet off the ground. (The DM chooses which creatures hover at the start of each of your turns, yourself included.)

Subspace Anomaly

Your presence strains and damages those around you. At the beginning of each of your turns, any number of creatures and objects within 30 feet of you that you can see or are aware of are dealt 1 force damage. The damage increases to 2 at 10th level, 3 at 13th level, and 4 at 16th level.

Warped Time

Your presence affects those who cast spells and is fatal to those who err in combat. Whenever you or another creature which is no more than 60 feet away from you misses with an attack or casts a spell, the movement speed of that creature is decreased by 10 feet until the end of their next turn. The reduction to speed increases to 20 feet at 10th level, 30 feet at 13th level, and 40 feet at 16th level.

Gluttonous Reaper

Whenever you reduce a creature's hit points to 0 and kill it, its body and nonmagical items worn or carried by it disintegrate into a pile of fine gray dust.

Ravenous Hunger

Whenever you reduce a creature's hit points to 0 and kill it, your next weapon attack or herrscher ability that deals damage deals an additional 1d8 force damage. The damage increases to 2d8 at 15th level.

Thirsting Soul

Whenever you reduce a creature's hit points to 0 and kill it, you regain 1d8 hit points. The amount of hit points regained increases to 2d8 at 15th level.

Bloodliege

You have learned to steal the life force of others when attacking them. Whenever you hit a creature with a weapon bonded to you or a herrscher ability and deal at least 10 damage to it, you regain 1d4 hit points.

Vampiric Herrscher

You are capable of draining the essence of others required to use your herrscher abilities, whose lives end by your hand. Whenever you reduce a creature's hit points to 0 and kill it, you regain a charge.

Wings of the Void

You are capable of conjuring wings for yourself. You gain the ability to sprout wings of cosmic matter, granting you a flying speed of 30 feet. On your turn, you can use your bonus action to summon them. They last until you dismiss them as a bonus action during your turn.

Chaos Arisen

You are chaos incarnate, twisting reality around you by merely existing. Choose an entropic arbiter feature of 3rd level and of 7th level that you don't have, which you gain.

Cosmic Juggernaut

You are as difficult to exterminate as the void. Your maximum hit points increases by 30. In addition, you regain 2 hit points at the beginning of each of your turns.

Voidwoken Knight

You have mastered wielding a weapon bonded to you in conjunction with your supernatural abilities. Melee weapon attacks you make with a weapon bonded to you emit shockwaves. After making a melee weapon attack with a weapon bonded to you, each other creature within 10 feet of you must make a Strength saving throw. A creature takes 1d6 force damage and is pushed 5 feet away on a failed save, and takes half as much damage and isn't pushed on a successful save.

Vermillion Assault

When you first choose this origin at 3rd level, you learn to channel another stream of might within yourself as a swath of destructive flame. Choose one of the attack actions shown below to learn.

Overheating

Performing a vermillion assault is physically taxing. After using a vermillion assault, you overheat that ability for 1 minute. When you use an overheated ability, you can't use it again until you finish a long or short rest or 30 minutes pass, whichever comes first.

Dual Strike

You summon two fiery blades. Make either two melee herrscher ability attacks against a creature within 5 feet of you, or one melee herrscher ability attack against two different creatures within 5 feet of you. On a hit, a creature is dealt 2d6 fire damage. The damage dealt increases to 3d6 at 12th level and 4d6 at 17th level. (2 charges)

Salamander's Rebuke

Fire erupts from your feet and moves at a high velocity to up to three target creatures within 15 feet of you. Each target must make a Strength saving throw and a Dexterity saving throw. A creature that fails its Strength saving throw is knocked down. A creature is dealt 3d6 fire damage on a failed Dexterity saving throw and half as much damage instead on a successful save. The damage increases to 4d6 at 12th level and 5d6 at 17th level. (2 charges)

Heavensbane

You shape a massive sword from fire and leap at a target up to 10 feet away, striking them. They must make a Constitution saving throw. A creature takes 15d10 fire damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful save. (4 charges)

Immolating Wave

Each creature within 30 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 10d10 fire damage on a failed save and half as much damage instead on a successful one. (3 charges)

Override

You can can override the once-per-day restriction on alpha executions by gaining another level of exhaustion. You can't override the limit more than once per day.
