Beast Slayer

None

You've spent a lifetime training in the forgotten art of Beast Slaying. Though their members are few the Guild of Beast Slayers are a tight-knit oraganization dedicated to researching, documenting, and most importantly, if there's an imbalance in nature, slaying the dangerous beasts of the land.  

YOU ARE ONLY ABLE TO TAKE THIS FEAT DURING CHARACTER CREATION

  When you take this feat you gain the following:
  • You gain profficiency with "Beast Slayer" weapons
  • Due to the highly specialized nature of "Beast Slayer" Instruments and the amount of time it takes to become profficient with them, you lose profficiency with Simple and Martial Weapons as well as Shields. Additionally, when making either a melee or ranged weapon attack with a non "Beast Slayer" weapon, you have Disadvantage.
  • You are able to choose any one "Beast Slayer" weapon available and add it to your character sheet
  • While using a "Beast Slayer" weapon that has the "Monumental Stature" and/or "Dangerous" property, you ignore them.
  • Once per turn when you hit a beast with a "Beast Slayer" weapon you are able to roll one additional weapon damage die and apply it to the weapon's damage. You are able to use this ability a number of times equal to you character level. You regain these expended uses upon a long rest.
 

Additionally

  You are able to choose one Fighting Style listed below. Note: These Fighting Styles are only selectable via the Beast Slayer Feat.  
  • Destructive Force - Your specialized training with "Beast Slayer" weapons has taught you how to defend yourself in combat against beasts. While you are wielding a "Beast Slayer" weapon with two hands and the "Beast Slayer" weapon has the Heavy and Two-Handed properties, and you're in a combat with a beast, you gain +2 AC
 
  • Agile Wings - Your specialized training with "Beast Slayer" weapons has taught you how to quickly manuever while in combat against beasts. While you are wielding a "Beast Slayer" weapon and you are in a combat with a beast and the weapon has the Light property, your movement speed increases by 10 and you get +1 AC
 
  • Serpentine Flexibility - Your specialized training with "Beast Slayer" weapons has taught you how to strike a beast no matter how it is attempting to defend itself. While you are wielding a "Beast Slayer" weapon with one hand, you have nothing in your other hand, and you are making a melee weapon attack against a beast, the "Beast Slayer" weapon has the Finesse property, double your profficiency bonus for attack rolls.
 
  • Eyes of the Hawk - Your specialized training with "Beast Slayer" weapons has granted you uncanny accuracy against beasts. While you are wielding a "Beast Slayer" weapon with either the Thrown or Range properties and you make a weapon attack against a beast you do not suffer Disadvantage when using the weapon's long range.
