PART 6.2 | Legendary Item


Feats

S
eeing as Trick Weapons or any of the sort are a
far cry from D&D, let alone D&D 5th Edition, I
took it upon myself to make some. Granted, you
could always just take the Weapon Master feat
available in the PBH, but I plan to put special
twists on these. Or, try anyway.

Blood Bullet Technique


A Hunter's alchemic knowledge to transmute Blood into
Quicksilver Bullets. By spending an action, you can exchange
30% of your health for 5 Quicksilver Bullets. The number of
Blood Bullets you can carry can never go above 5.

Gun-Parry
Prerequisite: Proficiency in Firearms
A trick of the Hunters of old, you stumbled across this old
technique. If a creature's attack misses you while you have a
one-handed firearm in your hand, you can expend a piece of
ammunition to fire point-blank. Make the attack with
Disadvantage. If the attack hits, it counts as a critical from
the firearm and is Stunned until the end of your next turn.

Rally
You shiver with excitement at the thought of bathing in your
enemies' blood.
Whenever you take damage or lose health in any way and
are still conscious, you can attack a creature and gain half of
the damage dealt in Temporary Hit Points.

Trick Weapon Knowledge


Prerequisite: Proficiency in Martial and Simple Weapons
You have started on the long road toward becoming a
Hunter, gaining the following benefit. You gain proficiency
with Trick Weapons.

Trick Weapon Mastery


Prerequisite: Proficiency in Trick Weaponry
Your travels along the oft-untouched road of the Hunter
grant you further mastery over its arms. You gain the
following benefits:

Increase your Strength of Dexterity score by 1, to a


maximum of 20.
When you attack with a Trick Weapon, you can choose to
transform the weapon during the attack if it has a
transformation.

Visceral Attack
Prerequisite: Gun-Parry
Your path leads you to bloodier depths of Hunting. If you
successfully Gun-Parry a creature, you can use an action on
your turn to perform a Visceral attack. Your next melee attack
counts as a critical and the target is no longer stunned.

PART 7 | Feats
New Conditions
Beasthood
When a creature temporarily submits to their inner beast and
abandons their humanity momentarily in the midst of
slaughter, they take on the appearance and mannerisms of a
wild beast. The creature affected by Beasthood gains the
partial physical appearance of beasts, usually wolfish in
nature; excess hair, glowing eyes, elongated canines, etc. The
effects are as follows.

Advantage on all Intimidation (Charisma) checks.


Disadvantage on all Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma
checks and saving throws.
All attacks made by the creature have one extra damage
die.
The creature is considered vulnerable to all sources of
incoming damage.
The creature counts as one size larger as if effected by the
Enlarge effect of the Enlarge/Reduce spell.

Note
Damage resistance granted by racial features
(like Tiefling's Hellish Resistance, Dragonborn's
Draconic Resistance, and Dwarven Resilience
traits) are still in effect, making the damage as
normal, neither vulnerable or resistant.
Do not include the extra 1d4 damage gained by
Enlarge if the extra damage die is being added
to the attack.

Frenzy
When a creature's brain is unable, and yet forced, to process
information pertaining to the Eldritch Truth or the Great
Ones, resulting in brief insanity and variably short
circuiting the brain or possibly experiencing sheer agony.
The effects of this are as follows.

A Frenzied creature's damage output is halved for the


duration of the effect.
The creature becomes resistant to all types of damage and
immunity to Psychic damage for the duration.
The creature has Disadvantage on all ability checks and
saving throws.
