Umbramancer[edit]
You wake up one day, looking at the wall. You realized that your shadow is no longer there. Are you still dreaming? Those wasteful questions won't improve your condition. Whenever you accept this truth doesn't matter, for the being of your soul was tainted from the very beginning of your life. The thing just manifested just now, it will change the way others look at you.
The nature of this taint lies in your lineage, you presume, however there are no records of anything happening like that. You feel like an unknown force is manifesting behind you, startling as a shape of your own reflection. Others that might want to help you fear you instead. Only the bravest remain on your side, but for how long?
Why is this happening to you? Well you might have forgot about it already by the truth was that you wanted to become an umbramancer, and every person who does loses their memory of it. Not just the memory, the very fact that you studied the acts of shadow, that you made an oath, is erased from the history. What remains is your own state, it no longer matters how or why you decided on reaching for this magic. You can gain more power, if you want, but you won't be able to realise at what price until after it is too late.
Creating a Umbramancer[edit]
Your character and her or his friends do not know from where you have gained this power. That fact is important when roleplaying this class, and because of that, it might not suit every player. However if you are determined you might ask yourself a few more questions. What age where you when you realised your shadow is missing? How did others react? Did you decide to accept the curse or to pointlessly find a way to remove it? There is no way you can remove it you know? Why would you want to remove it anyway? Is there a voice in your head or are you asking those questions yourself?

Shadow Hand[edit]
At first level, you can manifest the power hidden behind someone. As a spell attack you can use your Attack action to strike a foe, provided your attack is within the reach of its shadow, and you can see that shadow. When striking a creature that occupies a space in dim light or darkness the damage is increased. The damage and range of this attack changes as you gain levels in this class and is listed below. The Damage Type is Necrotic and you use your spellcasting ability as your attack modifier.

Shadow Magic[edit]
Starting at 1st level, you can immerse yourself within the facility of your own darkness and cast Spells.
- Cantrips
You know and can cast all Cantrips from the umbramancer spell list. Casting a cantrip does not require you to spend a spell slot.
- Preparing and Casting Spells
You don't need to prepare your spells, they are always available for you to cast as long as you reach sufficient level:
- At 1st level you known all the cantips found in the umbramancer spell list.
- At 2nd level you learn all the 1st level found in the umbramancer spell list.
- At 5th level you learn all the 2nd level found in the umbramancer spell list.
- At 9th level you learn all the 3th level found in the umbramancer spell list.
- At 13th level you learn all the 4th level found in the umbramancer spell list.
- At 17th level you learn all the 5th level found in the umbramancer spell list.
When casting a spell, you must expend a single spell slot on it. Casting cantrips however do not require you to spend a spell slot. After you finish a short or long rest you regain all of your expended spell slots. The umbramancer table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells.
Deja Vu Lyrics
Additionally, as long as you are able to see a shadow of a creature you can make the spell target it instead, which would affect the creature as well. You ignore all obstacles and cover bonuses of the foe if you target its shadow with a spell attack. If the creature's shadow is not within your line of sight you make your spell attacks with a disadvantage and the target has an advantage on saving throws against your spells.
All the spells you know are considered always prepared and you can cast them as long as you can expend a spell slot. Additionally you can use your shadow points to cast it at a higher level. It costs one shadow point to increase a spell by one level, and you can increase it only by one level. The maximum level which spells can be increased to is up to level 5
- Spellcasting Ability
Constitution is your spellcasting ability for your umbramancer spells, since your magic is based resisting channelled energy that runs through your body. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for the spells you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier
- Ritual Casting
You can cast your umbramancer spells as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag.
- Spellcasting Focus
You can cast spells that require a spellcasting focus without having one.
Eyes of Darkness[edit]
Starting at 2nd level, as an action you can spend a shadow point to cloud your vision in darkness. You can see shadows of all creatures within 60 feet, even through walls and obstacles, provided that they are casting a shadow. This feature lasts for 1 hour or until you dismiss it. During this effect you have a disadvantage on Investigation and Perception checks.
Shadow Pact[edit]
Starting at 2nd level, the oath you made with the forbidden knowledge grants you access to hidden mystic techniques. You can use shadow points to fuel some of the features of this class or to cast spells at a higher level. The amount of shadow points you can use is the number listed above in the umbramancer table + your Intelligence modifier.
You can spend one or more Hit Dice to gain 1 shadow point for each Hit Dice you decide to use. Doing so can't grant you more shadow points than your limit allows. Furthermore, you regain all of your expanded shadow points after you finish a long rest.
Additionally the limit of how much you can increase your spell level by spending shadow points escalates, and the limit of how high you can raise your spell level to also increases. Those changes can be found in the table below.
