Anubite (D&D 5e species)

I have wanted to make a player option like this for a while, and I want to get back to posting more regularly, so here is this species option I wrote. Originally inspired by age of mythology, but when I saw Julia's antropomorphic jackal art, I could not believe how well it fit what I had in mind. Here's a link to her artstation post: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/3oKL8g

Anubite Traits

Ability Score Increase. Choose one of: (a) Choose any +2; choose any other +1 (b) Choose three different +1

Size. Your size is Medium or Small. You choose the size when you select this character option.

Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Age. Anubites reach adulthood at age 10 and live up to 80 years.

Powerful bite. You can use your bite to make unarmed strikes. When you hit with it, the strike deals 1d6 + your Strength modifier piercing damage, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.

Tracker instincts. You have proficiency in the Survival skill.

Superior smell. You have a keen memory for smells. You can distinguish creatures and individuals by their smell, not just their appearance. This helps greatly when tracking or identifying them, but it does not mean you can’t be fooled by illusory smells.

Specialty. Anubites have differing strengths based on their habitat or role in their pack. Choose yours:

- Stalker. You have proficiency in the Stealth skill. Starting at 5th level, you can cast the pass without trace spell with this trait, without requiring a material component. Once you cast that spell with this trait, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest. You can also cast it using any spell slots you have of 2nd level or higher.

- Chaser. You have proficiency in the Perception skill. Your base walking speed increases to 35 feet, and whenever you make any jump, you can add 10 feet to the distance you cover.

- Finisher. You have proficiency in the Animal handling skill. You gain a bonus of +2 on melee attack rolls against a creature if at least one of your allies is within range to make a melee attack against that same creature, and the ally is not incapacitated.

Falx of Frost and Flame

This sword just wants to be loved, but it's very very clingy.

I wanted to make a weapon that is cursed merely for the curse's sake. I think the curse itself opens the door to compelling stories or conflict, and I want to see what happens. What better weapons to do so than the classic Flame Tongue and Frost Brand.

Eldritch Zealot - the Barbarian subclass that absorbs the strength of their vanquished foes!

Eldritch Champion - Fighter subclass aka Would you play a Fighter that absorbs the strength of their vanquished foes?

Way of the Weave Monk v2.2.1 - Jedi Monk subclass now updated!

Some years ago I was inspired to make a fantasy version of the jedi, as a monk order in my world. I recently reworked it into it's 2.0 version (for 5e14 monk) and got a bunch of great feedback.
