Thugs and cutthroats in every port lay claim to the title ‘pirate’, but actually making a fortune through piracy is no easy task. Some dread pirates make their living through fear, while others manifest a curious code of ethics. What is common is that their reputation is as powerful a tool as their weapon.
This archetype may be selected by a Rogue on reaching 3rd level. By Hook or By Crook At 3rd level, when you select this archetype, you gain proficiency in either Intimidation or Persuasion, as well as tool proficiency with Vehicles (water). If you already have these skills, you may choose an additional skill or tool proficiency. Dread Title Starting at 3rd level, when a creature knows your title, you gain a bonus on Deception, Intimidation, and Persuasion checks made to influence them equal to your proficiency bonus. Note that creatures which do not understand your language cannot be affected by this ability. Scourge of the Seas From 9th level, when you use your Uncanny Dodge ability to reduce damage from an attack, any allies adjacent to you may use their reaction to halve the attack’s damage against them as well. When you use your Cunning Action ability to take a Dash, Disengage, or Hide action, any ally adjacent to you can use their reaction to take the same action that you take. Once you have used this ability, you cannot use it again until you have finished a short or long rest. Impossible Luck At 13th level, when you make an ability check, you may choose to treat the d20 roll as a 20. If you do so, you take 1 level of exhaustion after completing the action. Once you have used this ability, you must finish a long rest before you can use this ability again. Motivate the Crew From 17th level, your crew are inspired by witnessing your prowess. As a reaction when you reduce a creature to 0 hit points, you and allies who can see you within 30 feet regain a number of hit points equal to 1d8 + your Charisma modifier (minimum +1), and have advantage on their next attack roll. After you use this ability, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again. Also posted on Game Masters Stash on 31 March 2021. Comments are closed.
