Rogues & The Many Ways to Gain Advantage...

For a Blog called CreativeRogues, I don’t seem to get enough time talk about one of my favorite Class: The Rogue!

Now we all know the Rogue is famous for sneaking around with their +17 to Stealth, but their also famous for the lovable Class Feature: Sneak Attack!

Now for those who are playing a Rogue right now, or are interested in playing a Rogue, Sneak Attack reads like this:

Once per turn, you can deal extra 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.

You don’t need advantage on the attack roll if another enemy of the target is within 5 feet of it, that enemy isn’t incapacitated, and you don’t have disadvantage on the attack roll.

And straight from the first line, it reads “You can deal extra damage to one creature you hit with an attack if you have advantage on the attack roll.”

So of course, like every Rogue, you’ll want to have Advantage on your Attack Rolls as often as possible…

So to help new Players and old Players alike, I’ve typed up every possible way I can think of for a Rogue to gain Advantage on their Attack Rolls…

You gain Advantage on your Attack Roll (And therefore can use Sneak Attack):

If the Target is Blinded.

If the Target is Paralyzed.

If the Target is Restrained.

If the Target is Petrified.

If the Target is Stunned.

If the Target is Unconscious.

If you are Invisible.

If the Target is Prone, and you are within 5 feet of the Target.

If an Ally uses the Help Action to grant you Advantage on your next Attack Roll against a Target within 5 feet of you.

If you attack the Target while Hidden (If they don’t detect you approaching) or you are otherwise Unseen.

If another Player grants you Advantage on an Attack Roll through the use of a Spell or Class Feature.

If a Rogue Subclass Feature (Such as Assassinate, Insightful Fighting, Rakish Audacity and Etc.) give specific conditions that can grant you Sneak Attack.

If the Area is Heavily Obscured.

If the Area is shrouded in Natural Darkness, making it Heavily Obscured.

If you are Flanking the Target. (Optional Rule: Flanking)

The Deck of Certain Things, or: The Joke Item That Almost Destroyed my Campaign

[by u/astonishingantman / reddit]

“I created this thing over two years ago as a joke item. One of my players became convinced that I was trying to trick them, and that it was a real Deck of Many Things. His paranoia spread, and the party nearly killed each other over it. After some impromptu group therapy, they decided to leave the Deck be and never speak of it again.

So now you get to use it. Have fun!”

Deck of Certain Things

Wondrous Item, Legendary

A set of 10 cards that come in a small box. “Deck of Certain Things” has been crudely carved into the box’s lid in Common.

Before you draw a card, you must declare how many cards you intend to draw and then draw them randomly (you can use a d10 to simulate the deck). Any cards drawn in excess of this number have no effect. Otherwise, as soon as you draw a card from the deck, its magic takes effect. Each card must be drawn no more than 1 hour after the previous draw. If you fail to draw the chosen number, the remaining cards fly from the deck and take effect all at once. Once a card is drawn it cannot reappear.

Once all 10 cards have been drawn, a pair of Gloves of Thievery appear in the deck box, along with a note thanking the Deck’s owner for the fun.

The cards are decorated with shoddy-looking artwork, seemingly scribbled with crayon. They are:

Acorn: 3d8 terrified squirrels are transported to your location from elsewhere on the material plane.

Fireworks: Your weapon explodes into a shower of brightly-colored glitter. It reforms in 1 hour.

Prospector: A wooden chest containing 10,000 pieces of counterfeit gold drops at your feet. The coins show a winking jester on both sides.

Liar: For the next 1d12 hours, telling a lie causes your trousers to ignite, dealing 1d6 points of fire damage.

Honey Jar: Summons a friendly sentient bear named Sigmund, who acts as an apothecary, selling the party potions from his backpack. He vanishes after 1d20 minutes.

Wallflower: You instantly succeed on all Insight checks for 24 hours, but fail all Intimidation checks.

Invitation: An imp appears in a burst of smoke, kicks you in the shins, then vanishes.

Nightmare: All items worn on your person, with the exception of undergarments, turn invisible for 1d4 hours.

Quill: A flameskull appears in front of you, delivers a heartfelt soliloquy, then explodes in a pillar of green flame. All creatures within 5 feet must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 2d10 fire damage.

Infant: For the next hour your voice is replaced with the shrill cries of a baby. You are unable to communicate through speech or cast spells with a verbal component.
