Cleric Domain: Hunt

Cleric Domain: Hunt

All gods of the hunt relish the chase. They promote the ideals of a journey: finding a quarry, learning its habits, and finishing it with a swift, precise blow. Clerics of these gods might bless nobles before a hunt, work as mercenaries tracking dangerous monsters through the wilderness, or be employed as scouts within armies. They are adept at finding their prey and, once located, use their magic to ensure they are never outrun. Such priests teach that all useful materials must be harvested and consumed to properly honour a quarry and to ensure the gods’ blessing during the next foray into the wilds.

Bonus Proficiency

1st-level Hunt Domain feature
You gain proficiency with two martial weapons of your choice. You also gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Animal Handling, Nature, or Survival.
Mark Prey
1st-level Hunt Domain feature
As a bonus action, you choose a creature you can see within range and mystically mark it as your quarry for the next hour. For the duration, you deal an extra 1d6 damage to the target whenever you hit it with a weapon attack, and you have advantage on any Wisdom (Perception) or Wisdom (Survival) check you make to find it. If you use this feature to mark a new creature, any previous marks disappear.
Channel Divinity: Honed Instincts 2nd-level Hunt Domain feature
You can use your Channel Divinity to gain preternatural insights into one creature you can see within 120 feet of you (no action required).You can choose one of the following lists of information to learn about the target when you use this Channel Divinity:
• Proficiencies. You learn the saving throws and skills with which the creature is proficient.
• Physiology. You learn the creature’s damage resistances, immunities, and vulnerabilities, as well as its condition immunities.
In addition, the next time you hit the target with a weapon attack within the next minute, you deal the attack’s maximum damage instead of rolling.
Pack Hunter
6th-level Hunt Domain feature
You learn to work with other hunters, helping them avoid your quarry’s blows, or striking with greater ferocity. As a reaction, you can embolden creatures friendly to you with your hunters’ instincts, issuing either the ‘kill’ or ‘retreat’ command. You have a number of uses of this feature equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1) and regain all expended uses when you finish a Short or Long rest.
• Kill. When a creature other than you hits a target which is currently affected by your Mark

Prey feature, you can use your reaction to deal the bonus damage to the creature.
• Retreat. When the target of your Mark Prey feature targets a creature that you can see within 60 feet of you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction to embolden the creature. If the creature is willing, it can use its reaction to move up to half its speed without provoking opportunity attacks immediately before the attack occurs.
Unflinching Mark
8th-level Hunt Domain feature
The bonus damage of your Mark Prey feature increases to 2d6. When you reach 14th level, the bonus damage increases to 3d6.
Rite of the Hunt
17th-level Hunt Domain feature
At 17th level, you can compel a creature to chase or avoid you. As a bonus action while you can see the target of your Mark Prey and it is within 120 feet of you, you can force the creature to make a Wisdom saving throw against your cleric spell save DC. On a failure, you choose for the creature to be afflicted by either Chase or Avoid for the next minute. The creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success. These effects are suppressed while you can’t see the creature and the effects end early if the creature is no longer affected by your hunter’s mark. A creature that succeeds on a saving throw against this ability is immune to its effects for the next 24 hours.
• Chase. The creature is drawn to you. For the duration, it has disadvantage on attack rolls against creatures other than you, and must make a Wisdom saving throw the first time it attempts to move to a space that is more than 30 feet away from you on a turn. On a failed save, it can’t move more than 30 feet away from you that turn. On a success, this effect doesn’t restrict the target’s movement for that turn.
• Avoid. The creature is repelled by you. For the duration, it has disadvantage on attack rolls against you, and must make a Wisdom saving throw the first time it attempts to move to a space within 30 feet of you on a turn. On a failed save, it can’t move within 30 feet of you that turn. On a success, this effect doesn’t restrict the target’s movement for that turn.
