A Locathah lurks in the shadows of an alley while his accomplice prepares for her part in the ambush.

Rogues rely on skill, stealth, and their foes’ vulnerabilities to get the upper hand in any situation. They have a knack for finding the solution to just about any problem, demonstrating a resourcefulness and versatility that is the cornerstone of any successful adventuring party. | Rogues rely on skill, stealth, and their foes’ vulnerabilities to get the upper hand in any situation. They have a knack for finding the solution to just about any problem, demonstrating a resourcefulness and versatility that is the cornerstone of any successful adventuring party.<br> | ||
Rogues devote as much effort to mastering the use of a variety of skills as they do to perfecting their combat abilities, giving them a broad expertise that few other characters can match. Many rogues focus on stealth and deception, while others refine the skills that help them in a dungeon environment, such as climbing, finding and disarming traps, and opening locks.<br> | |||
When it comes to combat, rogues prioritize cunning over brute strength. A rogue would rather make one precise strike, placing it exactly where the attack will hurt the target most, than wear an opponent down with a barrage of attacks. Rogues have an almost supernatural knack for avoiding danger, and a few learn magical tricks to supplement their other abilities.<br> | |||
Every town and city has its share of rogues. Most of them live up to the worst stereotypes of the class, making a living as burglars, assassins, cutpurses, and con artists. Often, these scoundrels are organized into thieves’ guilds or crime families. Plenty of rogues operate independently, but even they sometimes recruit apprentices to help them in their scams and heists. A few rogues make an honest living as locksmiths, investigators, or exterminators, which can be a dangerous job in a world where dire rats—and wererats—haunt the sewers.<br> | |||
As adventurers, rogues fall on both sides of the law. Some are hardened criminals who decide to seek their fortune in treasure hoards, while others take up a life of adventure to escape from the law. Some have learned and perfected their skills with the explicit purpose of infiltrating ancient ruins and hidden crypts in search of treasure. | |||

Rogue
Signaling for her companions to wait, a halfling creeps forward through the dungeon hall. She presses an ear to the door, then pulls out a set of tools and picks the lock in the blink of an eye. Then she disappears into the shadows as her fighter friend moves forward to kick the door open.
A Locathah lurks in the shadows of an alley while his accomplice prepares for her part in the ambush. When their target — a notorious slaver — passes the alleyway, the accomplice cries out, the slaver comes to investigate, and the assassin’s blade cuts his throat before he can make a sound.
Suppressing a giggle, a goblin waggles her fingers and magically lifts the key ring from the guard’s belt. In a moment, the keys are in her hand, the cell door is open, and she and her companions are free to make their escape.
Rogues rely on skill, stealth, and their foes’ vulnerabilities to get the upper hand in any situation. They have a knack for finding the solution to just about any problem, demonstrating a resourcefulness and versatility that is the cornerstone of any successful adventuring party.
Rogues devote as much effort to mastering the use of a variety of skills as they do to perfecting their combat abilities, giving them a broad expertise that few other characters can match. Many rogues focus on stealth and deception, while others refine the skills that help them in a dungeon environment, such as climbing, finding and disarming traps, and opening locks.
When it comes to combat, rogues prioritize cunning over brute strength. A rogue would rather make one precise strike, placing it exactly where the attack will hurt the target most, than wear an opponent down with a barrage of attacks. Rogues have an almost supernatural knack for avoiding danger, and a few learn magical tricks to supplement their other abilities.
Every town and city has its share of rogues. Most of them live up to the worst stereotypes of the class, making a living as burglars, assassins, cutpurses, and con artists. Often, these scoundrels are organized into thieves’ guilds or crime families. Plenty of rogues operate independently, but even they sometimes recruit apprentices to help them in their scams and heists. A few rogues make an honest living as locksmiths, investigators, or exterminators, which can be a dangerous job in a world where dire rats—and wererats—haunt the sewers.
As adventurers, rogues fall on both sides of the law. Some are hardened criminals who decide to seek their fortune in treasure hoards, while others take up a life of adventure to escape from the law. Some have learned and perfected their skills with the explicit purpose of infiltrating ancient ruins and hidden crypts in search of treasure.

As an Action, you become Invisible, along with anything you are wearing or carrying, for 1 hour or until you dismiss this effect as a Free Action. This Invisibility ends early immediately after you deal Damage to a creature or you force a creature to make a Saving Throw.
Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend a Psionic Energy Die to use this feature again.
Rend Mind
17th Level Soulknife Feature
You can sweep your Psychic Blades directly through a creature’s mind. When you Attack with your Psychic Blades and use your Sneak Attack feature, you can force that target to make a Wisdom Saving Throw with a DC of 8 + your Dexterity Modifier + your Proficiency Bonus. On a failed Save the target is Stunned for 1 minute, a creature Stunned in this way can repeat the Save at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a successful Save.
Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a Long Rest, unless you expend 3 Psionic Energy Dice to use it again.
Swashbuckler
You focus your training on the art of the blade, relying on speed, elegance, and charm in equal parts. While some warriors are brutes clad in heavy armor, your method of fighting looks almost like a performance. Duelists and pirates typically belong to this archetype.
A Swashbuckler excels in single combat, and can fight with two weapons while safely darting away from an opponent.
Feature | Level | Quick Explanation |
---|---|---|
Fancy Footwork | 3rd | If you Attack a creature, hit or miss, it can't make Opportunity Attacks against you |
Rakish Audacity | 3rd | You can use Sneak Attack when you, and no one else, is next to a creature |
Panache | 9th | You can make a creature only want to Attack you or like you more |
Elegant Maneuver | 13th | You can be better at Acrobatics and Athletics |
Master Duelist | 17th | If you miss an Attack you can reroll it |
Fancy Footwork
3rd Level Swashbuckler Feature
You learn how to land a strike and then slip away without reprisal. If you make a Melee Attack against a creature, that creature can’t make Opportunity Attacks against you until the start of your next turn.
Rakish Audacity
3rd Level Swashbuckler Feature
Your confidence propels you into battle. You add your Charisma Modifier to your Initiative Rolls.
You gain a new condition for your Sneak Attack feature:
- You it a creature while you are within 5ft of it but when no other creatures are within 5ft of it.
Panache
9th Level Swashbuckler Feature
Your charm becomes extraordinarily beguiling. As an action, you can make a Charisma (Persuasion) Check contested by a creature’s Wisdom (Insight) Check. The creature must be able to hear you, and must be able to understand you.
If you succeed the target has Disadvantage on Attacks against creatures other than you and can’t make Opportunity Attacks against creatures other than you. This effect lasts for 1 minute, until one of your allies Attacks the target or targets it with a Spell, or until the target is more than 60ft away from you.
If you succeed on the check and the creature isn’t hostile to you, it is Charmed by you for 1 minute. While Charmed, it regards you as a friendly acquaintance. This effect ends immediately if you or your companions do anything harmful to it.
Elegant Maneuver
13th Level Swashbuckler Feature
You can use a Bonus Action to gain Advantage on the next Dexterity (Acrobatics) or Strength (Athletics) Check you make before the end of the turn.
Master Duelist
17th Level Swashbuckler Feature
Your mastery of the blade lets you turn failure into success in combat. If you miss on an Attack, you can reroll the Attack.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, regaining expended uses at the end of a Long Rest.
Thief
You hone your skills in the larcenous arts. Burglars, bandits, cutpurses, and other criminals typically follow this archetype, but so do rogues who prefer to think of themselves as professional treasure seekers, explorers, delvers, and investigators. In addition to improving your agility and stealth, you learn skills useful for delving into ancient ruins, reading unfamiliar languages, and using magic items you normally couldn’t employ.

Fast Hands | 3rd | You can use Sleight of Hand and Thieve's Tools as a Bonus Action |

Use Magic Device

Thief's Reflexes
