Knight

They say the best offense is a good defense, and for followers of the Code of Aegis, this couldn't be more true. Your experience as an adventurer revolves around the shield.

Starting at 3rd Level, when wielding a shield you can choose to throw it. Make a ranged attack with your shield within 30 feet. On a successful hit, deal 1d6 bludgeoning damage. For the duration of its flight, you lose any AC bonus granted by the shield. At the end of your turn, your shield returns to your hand.

At 3rd Level, you've become confident in using your shield as a temporary platform for allies. As a bonus action you can position your shield above your head for allies to step on. Allies may spend part of their movement to reach your shield, counting your space as difficult terrain.

Allies who use your shield as a platform gain an extra 1d6 attack bonus and add half your Dex modifier (rounded down) to their damage bonus on attacks made until they touch the ground again.

Your shield loses half of its AC score (rounded down) while you hold this position. Starting next round you may lower your shield again as a free action.

At 6th Level, you learn that no ally should fight alone. When spending your movement to reach a friendly creature, you do so without provoking opportunity attacks.

At 11th Level, your bravery inspires those around you. Allies in a 10 foot radius receive advantage on checks made against spells or abilities that cause the Frightened condition.

At 11th Level you have gained a powerful mastery of your shield's flight. You can now throw your shield towards a point of your choosing within 30 feet and hold it there until the beginning of your next turn (no concentration needed). Allies may use this shield as a platform to incur the benefits recieved by Rising Star. You lose the AC bonus granted by the shield during its flight.

At 15th Level, you face foes head on and keep those closest to you safe from harm. When wielding a shield, enemies in a 10 foot radius of you and an ally of your choosing incur disadvantage on one attack per round.

At 17th Level, you've grown powerfully proficient with your shield, granting you double proficiency bonus on attacks or saves that involve your shield. You also ignore AC penalties incurred from Rising Star and Aegis Marksman.

Long have you sworn off traditional weaponry in pursuit of the elegant art of shovel work. While some find joy in hacking away at monsters with a sword, you have dedicated yourself to making the most of a tool that uplifted the foundation of civilization: A shovel. While you may adapt to situations with the help of your many relics, when all else fails, your spade is what you can truly depend on.

As a bonus action at 3rd Level, you may spend 1 Ichor to attempt to bury your shovel underneath a foe within 5 feet and flip them. Your target makes a Strength Saving Throw equal to your Ichor Save DC. On a failure they're knocked prone for your turn's duration. On a success, you have disadvantage against the target on your next attack this round.

At 3rd Level, you can use your action to attempt to shovel drop. Make a two-handed attack against a creature within 10 feet as you drop down onto it with your shovel. On a success, roll for damage as normal. You may make another attack against the same target or an adjacent target within 10 feet, up to three times. On a hit, you deal 1d8 + Dex piercing damage. You may choose to perform up to 2 additional shovel bounces. On each successive drop, you deal one die tier lower in damage (1d6, 1d4) without the Dex modifier. If you miss, you may spend 1 Ichor to heighten your senses and avoid falling prone, as you land within 5 feet of your target and lose your next bonus action. While traveling by Shovel Drop, you ignore difficult terrain. When you end this ability voluntarily, choose a space within 10 feet of your target to land.

Beginning at 8th level, the amount of times you can drop increases by one and the damage die starts at a 1d10 instead of a 1d8.

Starting at 6th level your Shovel Blade gains a bonus +2 to attack rolls. This bonus increases to a +4 at 12th Level.

Starting at 11th level you can use your reaction to block a missile when you are hit by a ranged weapon attack. When you do so, the damage you take from the attack is reduced by 1d8 + your Dexterity modifier + your Knight level.

If you reduce the damage to 0, and it is small enough to be held in one hand, you can reflect the missile by striking it with your shovel blade. You may then spend 1 Ichor point to make a ranged attack with the weapon or piece of ammunition you just deflected, as part of the same reaction. You make this attack with proficiency, regardless of your weapon proficiencies, and the missile does 1d6 + Dex, with a normal range of 20 feet and a long range of 60 feet.

Upon reaching 15th level, your devotion to shovelry grows. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls while using your shovel, and each of your shovel drops deal an additional d6 force damage. In addition, you can use your Shovel Blade to burrow through natural rock at half your land speed.

Starting at 17th level, once per day you may make a downward thrust against the earth. As an action, choose a location within 15 feet to leap to. Each creature in a 15-footradius sphere centered on each point you choose must make a Dexterity saving throw. The sphere spreads around corners. A creature takes 10d10 force damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one. On a failure the creature is also knocked prone. The ground becomes difficult terrain or is destroyed as a result of this strike.

Your heroism is unmatched in the face of danger. With honed skill you're able to bring out the best of your weapon, with a small arsenal to keep your options open when you need them most. As a knight your bond is to your cause, and you will go the distance to achieve your goals.

You gain an additional relic at level 1, 6 and 15, and you gain 2 additional relics at level 17

When it comes to finding optimal routes, you're a cut above the rest. At 3rd Level, your base movement increases by 10 feet.

Also, when jumping you may use your Dexterity Modifier instead of your Strength Modifier.

At 3rd Level, you find comfort in the weapon you rely on. Your Weapon of Devotion gains the following properties based on its chosen type.

• Ranged Weapon: You gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls made with this weapon.

• Melee Weapon: You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon.

You may also choose one of the following additional properties for your Weapon of Devotion.

At 6th Level you've begun to collect rare Relics that have never been seen before. You gain one of the following Relics from the Relic List for free: The Eye of True Sight, The Grapple Anchor, The Bomb Bag.

Alternatively, you may gain a second copy of your Weapon of Devotion weapon.

Upon reaching 6th Level, When you use your action to use a relic, you may use a second relic so long as it uses a bonus action.

At 11th level choose one of the following features:

At 15th Level you know how to overcharge your weapons with Ichor. As a bonus action, you may spend 3 Ichor. On your next attack within 10 minutes, add a +5 to your attack roll and an extra 3d6 force damage.

At 17th Level you gain another Relic from the Treasure Hunter list and may add an additional property to your Weapon of Devotion.

A strangely enchanted Knight imbued with Ichor. Not truly alive, not truly dead. Something in between.

At 3rd Level, as your action, choose a target creature within 15 feet and draw a line centered from you that extends five feet past the target. You fly past and through them to that location, making a melee attack against the target during your travel.

You may expend half your movement to adjust your landing an additional five feet. This ability cannot be used for making nor provoking opportunity attacks. You may use this ability while airborne or falling.

At 3rd Level, your enchantment's grip on your soul heightens. On death, instead of dying outright you drop your trinket. If an allied creature picks up the trinket and completes a long rest within 24 hours, you are revived. If your trinket is destroyed, you are permanently destroyed. A willing creature can don the trinket and hear your voice.

If you lose the trinket, within 72 hours you will begin to decay and be permanently destroyed.

At 6th Level, when taking your attack action against an opposing creature, you may spend 1 ichor to cause the target creature to make a Strength saving throw against your Ichor Save DC. If it fails, you impose the following:

• The target creature is launched 5 feet into the air until the start of their turn, during which they land on their feet as normal.

• While in the air, attacks made against them are done so with advantage and cause a creature to fall prone on a success.

You may spend an additional 1 Ichor to perform an extra attack using Dash Slash.

At 11th level, you gain the ability to climb faster than normal; climbing no longer costs you additional movement.

In addition, you are now resistant to falling damage.

At 15th level, you've grown comfortable with your new existence. After taking a long rest, choose one damage type from the following list, you have resistance to it for 8 hours: Fire, Lightning, Acid, Cold.

At 17th Level, on your turn you may spend your movement to throw your scythe in a direction of your choosing within 120 feet and line of sight. As part of this action you may choose to teleport to your scythe and perform a melee attack. If you lose your scythe, you may use a bonus action to return it to your hand, so long as it is on the same plane of existence as you.
