b) What do you look like? Hair/eye color? Height and Weight? Costume? Think of what your mug shot would look like.

Hitscan is not physically impressive, standing at 5'9 and weighting around 170lbs. He dresses in an almost business casual outfit, favoring speed over protection. Black hair and grey eyes, he has a cocky smile that never seems to vanish.

c) What can you do? What separates you from the masses? Brains? Training? Acidic blood? Magic tea cozy?

A mixture of training and inhuman talent, Hitscan has insane accuracy with all form of ranged weapons and has the ability to absorb information at absurd rates. He is also a gifted expert with technology, devising tools as needed.

d) What have you done? What separates you from a random survivor? Describe a typical crime. There is a reason you could not be at the welcoming ceremony with Champion. If you are a hero give me an example of your heroism and tell me why you were not incinerated for standing with Champion?

After being banned from all major FPS shooter tournaments and seeing his last money be eaten up by the health insurance companies to keep his mother alive, Hitscan found that his natural talent applied to firearms in real life as well. He became a professional killer, assassinating political and criminal figures the world over. He was on site when Champion was eradicated, though a few blocks over leveling a shot against the district attorney. Didn't need to pull the trigger to finish that job.

e) What have you been doing lately? How have you spent the last two years under V'sori occupation? Most importantly tell me about your capture by the V’sori. Yes you have been captured, no this cannot be negotiated.

He was captured recently during a V'sori raid, sold out by an employer who didn't want to pay his fee and was pressured by a V'sori informant. Since his internment, he has been trying to learn all he can about the enemy so he can escape. So far all he has learned is that he can't and that leaving the surface of the planet is not good.

f) What have you seen in the world? Detail a hero or a villain or an ordinary person you have ran into, worked with, fought, or just heard about. Maybe a member of Alpha Squadron you tangled with. Maybe a criminal mastermind you worked for. Maybe a taxi driver or whoever ran the newsstand near your old lair. Make them interesting. Think of yourself as pitching a 1 or 2 issue special series for the Necessary Evil comic book we are all creating.

Vanessa Crane is a nurse at Star City Hospital and she is the main caretaker of Hitscan's mother. She has no idea who he is but is kind and affectionate to the young man who is so dedicated to the sick woman. Hitscan has a crush on her but also realizes that he is a killer, an actual villain. How could he bring her into his life?

g) What is the greatest thing in life? What is your desired end state/goal. Tell me what is important to you.

Hitscan's greatest thing in life is his mother. Call him a momma's boy but she supported him when he started his streaming career and was there through all the bumps and issues. Her sickness devastated him and brought him into a life of crime.

He would love to be rich enough to take care of her forever, get her the experimental and groundbreaking medicine she needs to recover, and maybe just retire peacefully where he can game for fun like he used to.

~I will be playing Hitscan, a tech shooter that used to be a famous streamer that uses their inhuman reflexes and hand-eye coordination to pay the bills, live the life they want, and keep their mom alive in the hospital.

As you gain levels, your choices should reflect the types of monsters you have encountered on your adventures.
1st Level - Dwarves & Elves (Dwarvish) 6th Level - Fiends (Abyssal)

At the start of your first turn of each combat, your walking speed increases by 10 feet, which lasts until the end of that turn.

Class 2 Features (Cleric)
-Divine Domain (Twilight): At 1st level, you choose a domain shaped by your choice of Deity and the gifts they grant you. Your choice grants you domain spells and other features when you choose it at 1st level. It also grants you additional ways to use Channel Divinity when you gain that feature at 2nd level, and additional benefits at 6th, 8th, and 17th levels.

-Eyes of Night: Starting at 1st level, You can see through the deepest gloom. You have darkvision out to a range of 300 feet. In that radius, you can see in dim light as if it were bright light and in darkness as if it were dim light. As an action, you can magically share the darkvision of this feature with willing creatures you can see within 10 feet of you, up to a number of creatures equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of one creature). The shared darkvision lasts for 1 hour. Once you share it, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a spell slot of any level to share it again.

-Vigilant Blessing: At 1st level, the night has taught you to be vigilant. As an action, you give one creature you touch (including possibly yourself) advantage on the next initiative roll the creature makes. This benefit ends immediately after the roll or if you use this feature again.

-Channel Divinity: Channel Divinity
At 2nd level, you gain the ability to channel divine energy directly from your deity, using that energy to fuel magical effects. You start with two such effects: Turn Undead and an effect determined by your domain. Some domains grant you additional effects as you advance in levels, as noted in the domain description. When you use your Channel Divinity, you choose which effect to create. You must then finish a short or long rest to use your Channel Divinity again. Some Channel Divinity effects require saving throws. When you use such an effect from this class, the DC equals your cleric spell save DC. Beginning at 6th level, you can use your Channel Divinity twice between rests, and beginning at 18th level, you can use it three times between rests. When you finish a short or long rest, you regain your expended uses.
Turn Undead: As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak a prayer censuring the undead. Each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any damage. A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can't take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there's nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.
Harness Divine Power:At 2nd level, you can expend a use of your Channel Divinity to fuel your spells. As a bonus action, you touch your holy symbol, utter a prayer, and regain one expended spell slot, the level of which can be no higher than half your proficiency bonus (rounded up). The number of times you can use this feature is based on the level you've reached in this class: 2nd level, once; 6th level, twice; and 18th level, thrice. You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Twilight Sanctuary: At 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to refresh your allies with soothing twilight. As an action, you present your holy symbol, and a sphere of twilight emanates from you. The sphere is centered on you, has a 30-foot radius, and is filled with dim light. The sphere moves with you, and it lasts for 1 minute or until you are incapacitated or die. Whenever a creature (including you) ends its turn in the sphere, you can grant that creature one of these benefits:
~You grant it temporary hit points equal to 1d6 plus your cleric level.
~You end one effect on it causing it to be charmed or frightened.

Background: Hermit
Life of Seclusion: I was born in exile because of who I am and my faith.
Feature: Discovery - The quiet seclusion of your extended hermitage gave you access to a unique and powerful discovery. The exact nature of this revelation depends on the nature of your seclusion. It might be a great truth about the cosmos, the deities, the powerful beings of the outer planes, or the forces of nature. It could be a site that no one else has ever seen. You might have uncovered a fact that has long been forgotten, or unearthed some relic of the past that could rewrite history. It might be information that would be damaging to the people who or consigned you to exile, and hence the reason for your return to society.
-Trait #1: I feel tremendous empathy for all who suffer.
-Trait #2: I often get lost in my own thoughts and contemplation, becoming oblivious to my surroundings.
-Ideal: Greater Good. My gifts are meant to be shared with all, not used for my own benefit.
-Bond: I stayed in seclusion to hide from the ones who might still be hunting me. I must someday confront them.
-Flaw: I harbor dark, bloodthirsty thoughts that my isolation and meditation failed to quell.

History: Coranzen was born in the harsh darkness of the Underdark with only the large mushrooms of the fungal forest around them to witness his birth. His mother, Greyanna, had fled her home and house when it was revealed she was with child and the father was her most prized slave. His father, a man from the surface city, fought as hard as he could to let the woman escape into the dark and flee from their pursuers. Having found true love, she had quietly converted to the worship of the Moon Dancer unbeknownst to her sisters, aunt, and mother, a heresy that was discovered soon after her quarters were pilfered.

It was in this dark and dangerous environment that Greyanna attempted to raise her half-blooded child, teaching him the kindness of Eelistrae rather than the hateful dominance of Lloth. Her divine magic protected them from the worst predators in the Underdark, allowing the boy to grow and thrive. Peace was not meant to continue after eighteen years in the Underdark, as the agents of House Rilynt'tar found their "wayward sister".

A terrible battle occurred and ended with his mother's death but it was enough of a distraction for Coranzen to flee into deeper, darker tunnels. It was in these places filled with abysmal darkness that he first heard the Moondancer's voice in his ear. Like his mother, he had been chosen to harness the light and fight for the freedom of his ilk.

For years, the half-elf trained and hunted in the Underdark until he was a predator of the shadows himself. Slave caravans were never safe from his blade, spell, and bow and wayward adventurers would find signs and sigils leading them to safety and the surface. Corazen studied the signs that his goddess left for him.

When the Resistance to Menzobarranzan began, one of its earliest recruits was the quiet but deadly efficient ranger of twilight. Acting alone, he helped push the agenda of the rebellion while waiting for the signs. In the last battle, he witnessed the party battle and knew they were the ones that would help the moonlight shine upon his homeland and stop the destruction of all that could be.

Personality: While Coranzen seems gruff and standoffish, the half-elf truly believes in the Moon Dancer's beliefs in regards to redemption, kindness, and salvation. Never one to let others suffer, he uses his divine connection to soothe the innocent and good-hearted and bring righteous judgement upon others that stand in the way of the ascension of his kind back into the good graces of Faerun.

A hermit, he saw the signs of a great and terrible upheaval and joined the resistance out of vengeance for his (possibly?) dead mother and to stop a prophecy that the Dark Maiden, Eilistraee, had given him.

I don't think the +2 to Charisma really fits a hermit that well that has survived on his own this whole time. Maybe a +2 to Wisdom instead. I'm also wondering if I can flavor a rapier as a scimitar instead, keep its stats basically the same.

Let me know what you think!
