Swashbuckler

Delivers Deadly Strikes with Speed and Panache

You live and breathe the art of the blade, turning each fight into a display of speed, wit, and style. As a Swashbuckler, you excel in single combat, where your quick feet and sharper tongue turn a deadly duel into a flamboyant performance. With elegance, charm, and a flourish of panache, you make every strike look effortless.

Level 3: Fancy Footwork

You've learned how to land a strike then slip away without reprisal. If you make a melee attack against a creature during your turn, that creature can't make Opportunity Attacks against you for the rest of that turn.

Level 3: Rakish Audacity

You have honed your skills in one to one battles with brash confidence.

Initiative You have Advantage on Initiative rolls.

Rackish Sneak Attack You gain an additional way to use your Sneak Attack; you don't need Advantage on the attack roll to use your Sneak Attack against a creature if you are within 5 feet of it, no other creatures are within 5 feet of you, and you don't have Disadvantage on the attack roll.
All the other rules for Sneak Attack still apply to you.

Suave Defence While you aren't wearing any armour or wielding a Shield, your base Armour Class equals to 10 plus Dexterity and Charisma modifiers.

Level 9: Panache

You have practiced new ways to use your Sneak Attack. The following effects are now among your Cunning Strike options.

Goad
Cost: 1d6: The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw, or until the end of its next turn, the target has Disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you and can't make Opportunity Attacks against targets other than you.
Awe
Cost: 3d6: Each creature of your choice within 30 feet of you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have the Charmed condition until the end of your next turn.

Level 13: Dashing Strikes

You have practiced new ways to use your Sneak Attack. The following effects are now among your Cunning Strike options.

Parrying Stance
Cost: 2d6: Roll a d6. Until the start of your next turn, you gain a bonus to your AC equal to the number rolled.
Invigorate
Cost: 2d6: Choose a creature you can see within 30 feet of yourself. Until the end of that creature's next turn, whenever it makes an attack roll or a saving throw, it can roll a d6 and add the number rolled to the attack roll or saving throw.

Level 17: Master Duelist

Immediately after you use your Sneak Attack, you can make another attack against the same target, provided you are within 5 feet of it and no other creatures are within 5 feet of you.
