The Gambler
\pagebreak # The Gambler The tidy elven woman wipes her flashy overcoat as she walks onto the stage to perform her act. She pulls out a deck of cards and performs her act as the crowd just feet away marvel in awe. Cards float in every which way and colors fly in all directions. The marvelous performer brings the cards and colors back to her hand before bowing and taking a leave off stage as the crowd shows a round of applause never seen before. Running, a half-orcish man wipes blood from his mouth and rips an arrow from his chest. He kneels behind a boulder before muttering an incantation, causing a double of himself to appear before him and his actual self to disappear from view. The hunters in chase, fooled by the illusion, shoot down the misty mirage of the half-orcish man before panicking and hastily running around searching. What they don't see is the half-orcish man already gone from the scene, resting under a tree. A card is placed faced down at the gambling table by a human man, readied to be shown for the next round of the game. The cards set down are a 3 or hearts and an 8 of diamonds; nothing special. The dealer asks the man to show his cards and as he does, he waves his finger under the table to chant a spell as the card flip around and shutter into 2 face cards. The table goes wild at this man and he just sits there, with a sly smile, watching the chips on the table get slid to his pile. ### Creating a Gambler A very involved gambler is more often than not doing something just a little bit illegal to obtain the sweet high they get from winning. Unfortunately, the high they obtain by winning also comes with the deep low of losing what they had. Ask yourself how your character was driven to a life of gambling and just how bad their life is tied to gambling. Your character background should look into this; maybe it was to support your family? Lost in life and gambling was your only high? Are you a rich noble who had too much money to mess around with? Think about what cards your character was dealt and how they play into your background. ### Quick Build You can make a gambler quickly by following these suggestions. First, your highest ability score should be Charisma, followed by either Dexterity or Wisdom. Second, choose the Entertainer or Charlatan background depending on your alignment. ### Gambling Addiction In most cases, a gambler will have some sort of gambling addiction, whether it is severe or not. Think about how your character acts when a gambling scene is presented to them and how a win or loss effects their mood. \columnbreak
### Alignment A gambler's alignment is heavily tied to how they play into the gambling scene. If your character is a rich noble who has lots of money to spend, maybe they are more lighthearted because losing is not so much of a deal. What if your character has a poor family and losing is what could threaten their life? In this case they could be more willing to do underhanded things to provide for their family. \pagebreakNum

If your group uses the optional rule for multiclassing in the Player's Handbook, here's what you need to know if you choose gambler as one of your classes. ***Ability Score Minimum.*** You must have a Charisma of 13 or more to multiclass in or out of this class. ***Spell Slots.*** Add half of your levels in the gambler class, rounded down, to the appropriate leves from other classes to determine your available spell slots ### Spellbound Deck At 1st level, you learn how to harness your proficient card skills and use them to cast spells. Much like a wizard's spell book, this deck can be drawn on to learn and cast spells. Also, you learn the art of Card Throwing, detailed below as well. > ##### Replacing your Spellbound Deck > You can copy a spell from your own deck into another book - for example, if you want to make a backup copy of your deck. You need only spend 1 hour and 10 gp for each level of the copied spell which represents the time and money spent drawing spells on your cards. \columnbreak ### Spellcasting Starting at 1st level, you have learned to harness arcane energy through means of card manipulation. #### Preparing and Casting Spells The Gambler table (detailed at the end of the class) shows how many spell slots you have to cast your gambler spells. To cast one of your gambler spells of 1st level or higher, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of gambler spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the gambler spell list. When you do so, choose a number of gambler spells equal to your Charisma modifier + half your gambler level, rounded down (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you are a 5th-level gambler, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Charisma of 14, your list of prepared spells can include four spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell Burning Hands, you can cast it using a 1st-level or a 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn't remove it from your list of prepared spells. You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of gambler spells requires time spent drawing these spells on your deck: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list. #### Spellcasting Ability Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your gambler spells, since their power derives from the performance you can display. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a gambler spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one. **Spell save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier **Spell attack modifier** = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier #### Spellcasting Focus You can use your Spellbound Deck as a spellcasting focus for your gambler spells. ### Card Throwing Also at 1st level, you learn the art of Card Throwing. These cards can be drawn from your Spellbound Deck to attack using the weapon statistic block shown below. As you gain levels in this class, your arcane prowess grows and so does the damage die of your cards. Your cards do 1d6 damage at 5th, 1d8 at 9th, 1d10 at 14th, and 1d12 at 18th. If you wish, you can use Charisma instead of Strength or Dexterity for attacks using these cards. A card will reappear in your Spellbound Deck if it is more than 5 feet away from either you or your deck for more than 1 minute. | | | | | |:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:| | Card | 1d4 Slashing | 1/8 Lbs. | Finesse, Thrown (20/60) | \pagebreakNum ### Expertise Beginning at 2nd level, choose two of your skill proficiencies to gain expertise in. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of the chosen proficiencies. At 6th level, you can choose two more of your proficiencies to gain this benefit. ### Raise At 2nd level, your card tricks has led you to a discovery in how you harness your arcane ability. When making a Saving Throw or Ability Skill Check, but before you know the results, you can expend a spell slot to gain 2 times the expended spell slot's level as a bonus to that roll. For example, at 5th level, if you roll an Ability Skill Check or Saving Throw that adds up to 12 and you decide to use this feature, you can expend a 2nd level spell slot to gain +4 to that roll and make it a 16. You can use this feature equal to your Charisma modifier, indicating your influence to the roll. All expended uses are replenished at the end of a long rest. ### Form of Gambling At 3rd level, significant gambling experience has driven you to a path as to how you will take the rest of your gambling life. Your chosen form choice grants you features at 3rd level and then again at 5th, 11th, and 17th level. ### Wild Cards Your form allows you to utilize arcane power to fuel magical effects. Each Wild Card option provided by your gambling form explains how to use it. When you use your Wild Card, you choose which option to use. You must then finish a short or long rest to use your Wild Card again. Beginning at 11th level, you can use your Wild Card twice between rests. Some Wild Card effects require saving throws. When you use such an effect from this class, the DC equals your gambler spell save DC. ### Ability Score Improvement When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 10th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature. ### Reshuffle At 6th level, during a short rest, you can reshuffle your Spellbound Deck and change your prepared spells.

Once per long rest, when you use the Raise feature, you can add 4 times the spell slot's level as a bonus instead of only 2 times the slot level. ### Critical Luck Also at 7th level, luck has shown through you and has even given you more than you probably should have. However, this luck still works in your favor. You now roll a critical success on a 19 or 20. At 15th level, this increases to 18, 19, and 20. Unfortunately, you now roll a critical fail on either a 1 or a 2. ### Luck Of The Draw At 13th level, you can channel arcane energy into a card. As an action, you prepare to channel your energy and then roll a d4 on the table below. You gain the effect explained on the table. You can use this feature equal to your Proficiency bonus and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. | Suit | Gained Effect | |:---:|:-----------:| | Hearts | You gain temporary hit points equal to your level. | | Spades | You gain a +5 bonus to damage rolls for 1 minute. | | Diamonds | You gain advantage on all saving throws for 1 minute. | | Clubs | You gain a +2 bonus to your AC for 10 minutes or until you become incapacitated. | ### Trump Card At 20th level, at the end of a long rest, choose one of your prepared spells. Once per long rest, you can cast this spell at 5th level without expending a spell slot. This spell attack has advantage and all damage and effects of the spell are doubled. If the spell requires the targets to make a saving throw, they do so at disadvantage. You can change the spell at the end of your next long rest. \pagebreakNum
### Form of The Dealer At all gambling tables, throughout all of time, there was always a gambler to keep the table working in their favor. This gambler is the center of the table, the dealer. A dealer uses arcane magic and quick wits to work their opponents into playing the cards the dealer wishes. #### Wild Cards When you take this form at 3rd level, you gain the following two Wild Card options. **Modify Field.** As an action, move an amount of solid material within the area of your Gambling Table equal to 10 feet times your Charisma modifier.

For the duration of your Gambling Table, you can cast an amount of unprepared gambler spells equal to your Proficiency Bonus. For example, if the spell Burning Hands is not prepared, you can cast it by expending the appropriate spell slot. You can do this to any spell until you've casted unprepared spells equal to your Proficiency Bonus. #### Gambling Table Starting at 3rd level, you understand the workings of a gambling table and can produce such effects onto the battlefield. On your first turn in initiative, you can set up your Gambling Table as a free action. Choose a spot within 60 feet of you. All places within a 30 foot square centered on the chosen spot count as your "Gambling Table". This feature is essential for the rest of your form's abilities. #### Eye For Cheating Also at 3rd level, as a reaction, whenever a creature makes a roll at advantage within the area of your Gambling Table, you can make one attack at that creature. #### Dealer's Insight At 5th level, as a bonus action, you can make an Wisdom (insight) check contested with their Charisma (deception) check at a creature to determine one of the following if you succeed: Armor Class, speed, one ability score, one of its senses, its maximum hit points, or its creature type. #### Table's Rules At 11th level, when you set up your Gambling Table, work with your DM to set up a rule that will remain for the duration of your table. If a creature within the range of your Gambling Table breaks the rule, they take 2d10 psychic damage. #### Dominate Table Beginning at 17th level, as a bonus action, choose one creature within the area of your Gambling Table. That creature has disadvantage on all rolls until the end of its next turn. You can use this feature equal to your Charisma modifier per long rest and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. \pagebreakNum
### Form of The High Roller A High Roller is someone who bets high when they wish to bet on something and knows exactly how to do it. Unfortunately, this leads to boring life of always winning and so they result to another type of gambling, gambling with their own life. A High Roller plays with their life like a game of poker and messes with it in any way they wish just for that sweet feel of winning. #### Wild Cards When you take this form at 3rd level, you gain the following two Wild Card options. **Frenzied Magic.** As a bonus action, you roll on the Wild Magic table whenever you cast a spell for the next minute. **Siphoning Aura.** As an action, gain an aura within 10 feet of you for 10 minutes. When a hostile creature is within this aura, at the start of its turn, siphon 1d10 health from that creature. The creature takes the amount rolled in necrotic damage and you gain hit points an equal amount that it lost. If you heal to your maximum hit points, you gain temporary hit points for the duration of your aura. #### Sacrificial Gamble At 3rd level, you can choose to forgo the expended use of an ability granted by this class and instead gamble with your life. However, gambling your life increases the risk of using the ability. So, instead of using the rules your usually use for the ability, use the rules shown below for the select ability. You can use this feature once and you regain the use when you finish a long rest. **Raise.** Use this ability as normal but take 1d4 psychic damage per spell slot level. **Wild Card.** Roll a d2 and use that result. Take 1d6 psychic damage. **Luck Of The Draw.** Roll a d4 and use that result. Take 3d4 psychic damage. \columnbreak #### Ante At 5th level, you can bet your hit points. When the dungeon master calls for Initiative, before you roll, you can bet an amount of hit points to a maximum of 5 per enemy you are fighting. You can choose what enemies you bet on. After you roll initiative, if your roll is higher than that enemy, you lose no hit points and instead deal that amount of hit points bet as psychic damage to the enemy you bet on. If your roll is below that enemy’s initiative roll, you lose the hit points you bet on. For example, if your dungeon master calls for initiative and you wish to bet hit points, you can bet on enemies 1,2, and 4, wagering 3 hit points each. If your roll is below enemy 1’s roll, you lose 3 hit points. If your roll is above enemy 2 and 4’s initiative rolls, they each take 3 psychic damage. #### Roulette At 11th level, when you roll a critical success on an attack roll, you can add an extra 2d10 of the respective damage type to the calculation of the damage.

If it does not, nothing happens and instead you take psychic damage equal to the amount of hit points you wagered. \pagebreakNum
