Rogue: Gambler
Made by drsooz
In the shadowed alleys and dimly-lit gambling dens of the world, there exists a breed of rogue unlike any other. Through a combination of razor-sharp wit, keen observation, and a dash of sheer audacity, these gambling rogues always manage to tip the scales in their favor.
While others may rely on calculated odds or divine blessings to reassure them in the face of chance, the Gambler Rogue is determined to forge their own fortune. With a knowing smirk and a flick of the wrist, they turn seemingly impossible odds into everyday occurrences, morph setbacks into opportunities, and change losses into victories. Whether it’s a daring heist, a high-stakes duel, or a casual game of chance, the Gambler Rogue thrives where uncertainty reigns, proving that in a world of chaos, true mastery lies in making one’s own luck.
At 3rd level, you gain proficiency with two gaming sets of your choice. Additionally, whenever you make a Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) check to cheat while using a gaming set, treat a roll of 7 or lower on the d20 as an 8. Beginning at 3rd level, your innate “luck” grants you the edge. You have a number of Loaded Dice equal to your Intelligence modifier + your proficiency bonus, which you can use on various abilities. You regain all your expended Loaded Dice when you finish a long rest.
The powers below use your Loaded Dice.
When you miss an attack, you may expend two Loaded Dice and reroll the attack. If this causes the attack to hit, you regain one Loaded Die. When you have disadvantage on an ability check, saving throw, or attack roll, you may spend a Loaded Die. You no longer have disadvantage, but you cannot get advantage on this roll. Before you make an attack roll, you may spend a Loaded Die. If the attack hits, you can use your Sneak Attack against the target regardless of whether you would otherwise be able to. Roll an additional 1d6 when rolling for your Sneak Attack’s damage.
