D&D 5.5: The New Rogue

This being a promo video, everything of course sounds peachy, and only changes that give players more power/options are mentioned.

That said, if they haven't veered off from the latest Unearthed Arcana version (which managed to excite me! see here), this should be a fantastic improvement all around.

Except Stealth mechanics. (They're not mentioned in the video, I'm only judging from UA.). I swear there's a dark curse on D&D and we just can't have good, elegant, and intuitive stealth mechanics in this game.

And here's some art from the video, featuring Rogue, Assassin, Thief, Arcane Trickster and Soulknife.

rogues are SO COOL you guys, I'll NEVER get over them

Reference sheet of my latest D&D character, Willow! She's a tabaxi/harengon rogue and the daughter of my harengon/warforged monk, Nymbus! She's a sassy little shit with a napoleon complex and a colorful criminal record. Here to steal gold (from the rich) and break hearts.

And I am so done asking for permission, a girl in my position could conquer the world

My Sunday D&D game got put on hiatus 😭 But the last thing that happened before that was that Rae had to 1v1 the queen of an insectoid hive to prove that the party were worthy allies. Here is my editorialized rough animation of that fight. 😈🗡️

I wanted to draw Arissa in the same situations as Sohra in this post, but noticeably switched in terms of mood

This is a commission drawn by Exlords_, which @xyanmajor gifted me.

I think it's okay to share it here. @xyanmajor commissioned the artist to draw my Shadar-kai character in her WBtW campaign. He looks amazing, the artist really capture the vibe I have in mind for him, though failing to rp on my end I'm very thankful for this gift. Vae looks wonderful.

For campaign reason, he's currently wearing a famous DnD character's dress, so if the clothing under the feather cape is familiar, it's totally normal.

With a bit of help, Barus finally managed to craft his first piece of magical clothing, a scarf of acid resistance!

Rogue: Soulknife (5.5e)

A Soulknife strikes with the mind cutting through barriers both physical and psychic. These Rogues discover psionic power within themselves and channel it to do their roguish work. As a Soulknife your psionic abilities might have haunted you since childhood revealing their full potential only as you experienced the stress of adventure. Or you might have sought out an order of psychic adepts and spent years learning how to manifest your power.

Level 3 Psionic Power: You harbor a wellspring of psionic energy within yourself. It is represented by your Psionic Energy Dice which fuel certain powers you have from this subclss.

At level 3 your Psionic Energy die is a d6, becomes a d8 at level 5, a d10 at level 11 and a d12 at level 17.

You get 4 Psionic Energy uses at level 3, 6 at level 5, 8 at level 9, 10 at level 13 and 12 at level 17.

Any features in this subclass that use a Psionic Energy Die use only the dice from this subclass. Some of your powers expend a Psionic Energy Die as specified in a power's description and you can't use a power if it requires you to use a die why your Psionic Energy Dice are all expended.

You regain one of your expended Psionic Energy Dice when you finish a Short Rest and you regain all of them when you finish a Long Rest.

Psi Bolstered Knack: If you fail an ability check using a skill or tool with which you have proficiency you can roll 1 Psionic Energy Die and add the number rolled to the check potentially turning failure into a success. The die is expended only if the roll then succeeds.

Psychic Whispers: You can establish telepathic communication between yourself and others. As a Magic action choose one or more creatures you can see up to a number of creatures equal to your Proficiency Bonus and then roll one Psionic Energy Die. For a number of hours equal to the number rolled the chosen creatures can speak telepathically with you and you can speak telepathically with them. To send or receive a message (no action required) you and the other creature must be within 1 mile of each other. A creature can end the telepathic connection at any time (no action required).

The first time you use this power after Long Rest you don't expend the Psionic Energy Die. All other times you use the power you expend the die.

Level 3 Psychic Blades: You can manifest shimmering Blades of psychic energy. Whenever you take the Attack action or make an Opportunity Attack you can manifest a Psychic Blade in your free hand and make the attack with that blade. The magic blade has the following traits:

Simple Melee Weapon

Damage on a Hit: 1d6 Psychic plus the ability modifier used for the attack Roll.

Properties: Finesse and can be Thrown (Normal range of 60 feet and long range of 120 feet)

Mastery: Vex (You can use this property and it doesn't count against the number of properties you can use with Weapon Mastery)

The blade vanishes immediately after it hits or misses its target and it leaves no mark if it deals damage.

After you attack with the blade on your turn you can make a melee or a ranged attack with a second Psychic Blade as a Bonus Action on the same turn if your other hand is free to create it. The damage die of this bonus attack is 1d4 instead of 1d6.

Level 9 Soul Blades: You can now use the following powers with your Psychic Blades.

Homing Strikes: If you make an attack roll with your Psychic Blade and miss the target you can roll one Psionic Energy Die and add the number rolled to the attack roll. If this causes the attack to hit the die is expended.

Psychic Teleportation: As a Bonus Action you manifest a Psychic Blade expend one Psionic Energy Die and roll it and throw the blade at an unoccupied space you can see up to a number of feet away equal to 10 times the number rolled. You then teleport to that space and the blade vanishes.

Level 13 Psychic Veil: You can weave a veil of psychic static to mask yourself. As a Magic Action you are invisible for 1 hour or until you dismiss the effect (no action required). This invisibility ends early immediately after you deal damage to a creature or you force a creature to make a saving throw.

Once you use this feature you can't do so again until you finish a Long Rest unless you expend a Psionic Energy Die (no action required) to restore your use of it.

Level 17 Rend Mind: You can sweep your Psychic Blades through a creature's mind. When you use your Psychic Blades to deal Sneak Attack damage to a creature you can force that target to make a Wisdom saving throw (DC 8 plus your Dexterity modifier and Proficiency Bonus). If the save fails the target is Stunned for 1 minute. The Stunned target repeats the save at the end of each of its turn ending the effect on itself on a success. (For those who don't know the Stunned Condition. You are Incapacitated. You automatically Fail Strength and Dexterity saving throws and Attack Rolls against you have advantage)

Once you use this feature you can't do so again until you finish a Long Rest unless you expend 3 Psionic Energy Dice (no action required) to restore your use of it.
