Caligni Hunter
Level 4Attacks
Abilities
When the hunter dies, their soul leaves their body in an explosion of spiritual energy. All creatures in a 20-foot area take 5d6 spirit damage (DC 19 will save).
The hunter's possessions are left in a pile where they died.
The caligni hunter makes two Strikes against the same target, one with each of their shortswords. The hunter combines the damage of any attacks that hit and applies precision damage, resistances, and weaknesses only once. Both attacks count toward the hunter's multiple attack penalty, but the penalty increases only after both attacks.
Each caligni skulker within 30-foot area of the skulker can Step. Each creeper can benefit from Encircling Command only once per round.
The caligni hunter deals 1d6 extra precision damage to Off-Guard creatures.
Although caligni hunters are often pressed into leading their skulker kin, most hunters prefer to wander the Darklands or raid the surface free from those responsibilities. Their preferred assaults are usually done by solo caligni hunters or in small groups of two or three.
Calignis lurk in subterranean cities, with each caligni growing into a specific role and form determined by supernatural influences in caligni society. Regardless of their size or role, all calignis are gaunt, with pale flesh and white eyes. Many relish the chance to creep above ground at night to steal resources, shadow their surface counterparts, or simply make mischief.
