Cutthroat's Reflexes
When you reach 17th level, you have become adept at laying
ambushes and quickly escaping danger. You can take two
turns during the first round of any Combat. You take your first
turn at your normal Initiative and your second turn at your
Initiative minus 10. You can’t use this feature when you are
surprised.
Divine Executioner
Also known as a divine assassin, god’s blade, or wrathbringer,
a Divine Executioner is a weapon chosen by a god to punish
those who have committed an affront to that deity. Evil deities
are more likely to use these Divine Executioners, but some
good deities use them to deal with problems of a subtler
nature than a cleric, inquisitor, paladin, or warpriest can
typically handle.
Executional Smite
Beginning at 3rd level, the Divine Executioner gains the
ability to smite their deity's enemies with magical power. On
a hit, the Divine Executioner can cast a Smite for a bonus
2d8 damage a number of times equal to their Charisma
modifier (minimum of 1) times per day. If the Divine
Executioner is good aligned, the damage is radiant. If they are
evil aligned the damage is necrotic.
At 10th, and 17th levels the damage increases by 1d8
radiant or necrotic damage.
Invisible Knife
Beginning at 7th level, the Divine Executioner can cast
invisibility on themselves as a bonus action a number of times
equal to their Charisma modifier (minimum of 1) per long
rest.
Zealous Fury
Starting at 10th level, your foes can see the fury behind your
eyes and it strikes a momentary jump of fear into the hearts
of those you attack. During your turn, if you make a melee
attack against a creature, that creature cannot make
opportunity attacks against you for the rest of your turn.
Additionally, whenever you successfully score a critical hit
on a creature with a melee weapon attack, that creature
becomes frightened of you until the end of your next turn.
