Rogue Archetype - Ninja
You have chosen to study the art of the ninjas of Doma. These talented fighters have learned to channel the power from the world around them, the heavens, the earth and the hearts of man through the use of mudras or hand gestures. These traditional arts are passed down from master to student, father to son and mother to daughter. Their secrets are closely guarded by the practitioners.
Each mudra carries meaning. The Ten mudras draws power from the heavens, while the Chi mudra draws power from the earth. Jin completes the triangle, drawing power from the hearts of man. Together, these mudras allow the ninja to draw power from the world they live in.
Ninjutsu
Beginning at the 3rd level, as an action, you may cast ninjutsu by combining mudra together. Beginning at 3rd level you gain access to the mudra 'Ten'. At 9th level you gain access to the mudra 'Chi', and at 13th level you gain access to the mudra 'Jin'. You may use each mudra a number of times equal to half your rogue level rounded down. You may not use two of the same mudra to cast ninjutsu which require a specific mudra. you regain all of your expended mudra when you finish a long rest.

Also beginning at the 3rd level, when you use the hide action, you may spend one use of your Ten mudra to transform it into Shukuchi. You instantaneously travel a maximum distance of 5ft. per rogue level. You may travel over gaps in the ground, but cannot scale walls or travel through creatures or objects using shukuchi. At the 13th level you leave behind an optional 15ft. cube of smoke which persists for a number of rounds equal to your Intelligence modifier.
Infiltrator
Beginning at the 9th level, you've honed your skills in breaking into and out of buildings. As long as you are not engaged in combat, you have advantage on stealth and acrobatics checks in areas with dim or no light.
Trick Attack
Beginning at the 13th level you are able to perform a trick attack. When you attack an enemy with a sneak attack, you may expend one use of each mudra to perform a trick attack. On a successful attack roll, the target becomes vulnerable causing all attack rolls to have advantage against that creature for one round, beginning after your action.
Kassatsu
Beginning at the 17th level, as a bonus action, after using a ninjutsu you may use a second ninjutsu which requires one fewer mudra. You may use Kassatsu once. You must then finish a long rest to use Kassatsu again.
