### Hunter's Mark
Beginning at 1st level as a bonus action, you can choose a creature you can see within 90 feet and mark it as your quarry. You deal extra damage to the target equal to your proficiency bonus whenever you hit it with a weapon attack. Any attack roll you make against the marked target is a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.

### Combat Superiority
At 2nd level, you learn maneuvers that are fueled by special dice called superiority dice.
___
**Maneuvers.** You learn two maneuvers of your choice, which are chosen from the list of maneuvers available to fighters with the Battle Master archetype. Many maneuvers enhance an attack in some way. You can use your Wisdom modifier instead of Charisma for maneuvers such as *Rally.*

You can use only one maneuver per attack. 
You learn an additional maneuver of your choice at 5th and 13th level. Each time you learn new maneuvers, you can also replace one maneuver you know with a different one.
___
**Superiority Dice.** You have two superiority dice, which are d6s. A superiority die is expended when you use it. You regain all of your expended superiority dice when you finish a short or long rest.

You gain another superiority die at 9th level and one more at 17th level.
___
**Saving Throws.** Some of your maneuvers require your target to make a saving throw to resist the maneuver’s effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:
___
**Maneuver save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (your choice)

\columnbreak

### Poultices
At 3rd level, you can create special herbal poultices that have healing power comparable to some potions. You can spend 1 hour gathering herbs and preparing poultices using treated bandages to create a number of such poultices equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1). 
___
You can carry a number of poultices at one time equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1). The poultices you create cannot be applied by anyone but you. After 24 hours, any poultices that you have not used lose their potency.
___
If you spend 1 minute applying one of your poultices to a wounded humanoid creature, thereby expending its use, that creature regains hit points as per the table.

### Primeval Awareness
Beginning at 3rd level, your mastery of ranger lore allows you to establish a powerful link to beasts and to the land around you. You have an innate ability to communicate with beasts, and they recognize you as a kindred spirit.
___
Through sounds and gestures, you can communicate simple ideas to a beast as an action, and can read its basic mood and intent. You learn its emotional state, whether it is affected by magic of any sort, and actions you can take (if any) to persuade it to not attack.
___
You cannot use this ability against a creature that you have attacked within the past 10 minutes.
___
Additionally, as an action, I can focus my awareness for 1 minute, once per short rest, out to 1 mile to sense if one of the following are present: aberrations, celestials, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends, or undead.  
This feature doesn’t reveal the creatures’ location or number.

### Ranger Conclave

### Land’s Stride
At level 8, you gain an additional 10ft to your movement speed, as well as gaining a swimming and climbing speed equal to your movement speed.
___
In addition, you have advantage on saving throws against plants that are nonmagical or magically created or manipulated to impede movement, such those created by the *entangle* spell, and take no damage from nonmagical plants if they have thorns, spines, or a similar hazard.

### Slayer's Smite
Starting at level 9, for the creature that you have Hunter's Marked, your attacks count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

### Hide in Plain Sight
Starting at 10th level, you can spend 1 minute creating camouflage for yourself. You must have access to fresh mud, dirt, plants, soot, and other naturally occurring materials with which to create your camouflage.
___
Once you are camouflaged in this way, you can try to hide by pressing yourself up against a solid surface, such as a tree or wall, that is at least as tall and wide as you are. You gain a +10 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth) checks as long as you remain there without moving or taking actions. Once you move or take an action or a reaction, you must camouflage yourself again to gain this benefit.
___

Additionally, you cannot be tracked by nonmagical means, unless you choose to leave a trail.

\columnbreak

\pagebreakNum

## Ranger Conclaves
Across the wilds, rangers come together to form conclaves: loose associations whose members share a similar outlook on how to protect nature from those who would despoil it.

### Beast Master Conclave
Many rangers are more at home in the wilds than in civilization, to the point where animals consider them kin. They believe that all beings should live in harmony with natural creatures. Rangers of the Beast Master Conclave develop a close bond with nature, and their animal companions are legendary for their loyalty and might.

#### Animal Companion
At	3rd level,	you	learn	to	use	your	affinity with nature	to	create	a	powerful	bond	with	a	creature	of	the	
natural	world.

With	8	hours	of	work and	the	expenditure	of 50	gp	worth	of	rare	herbs	and	fine	food,	you	call	
forth	an	animal	from	the	wilderness	to	serve	as	your	faithful companion.	You	normally	select	
you	companion	from	among	the	following	animals: **an	ape,	a	black	bear,	a	boar,	a	giant	
badger,	a	giant	weasel,	a	mule,	a	panther,	or	a	wolf**.	However, your	DM	might	pick	one	of	these	
animals	for	you, based	on	the	surrounding	terrain	and	on	what	types	of	creatures	would	logically	be	present	in	the	area.

At	the	end	of	the	8	hours,	your	animal	companion	appears	and	gains	all	the	benefits	of	your	Companion’s	Bond	ability. You	can	have	only	one	animal	companion	at	a	time.

If	your	animal	companion	is	ever	slain,	the	natural	bond	you	share	allows	you	to	return	it	to	life.	With	8	hours	of	work	and	the	expenditure	of	25	gp	worth	of	rare	herbs	and	fine	food,	you	call	forth	your	companion’s	spirit	and	use	your	affinity	to	create	a	new	body	for	it.	You	can	return	an	animal	companion	to	life	in	this	manner	even	if	you	do	not	possess	any	part	of	its	body.

If	you	use	this	ability	to	return	a	former	animal	companion	to	life	while	you	have	a current animal	companion,	your	current	companion	leaves	you	and	is	replaced	by	the	restored	companion.

#### Companion’s Bond
Your	animal	companion	gains	a	variety	of	
benefits	while	it	is	linked	to	you.

The	animal	companion	loses	its	Multiattack	action,	if	it	has	one.

The	companion obeys	your	commands	as	best	
it	can.	It takes its turn on your initiative. You 	determine	its	actions,	decisions,	
attitudes,	and	so	on.	If	you	are	incapacitated	or	absent,	your companion acts	on	its	own.	
___
You can verbally command your companion where to move as a free action.

You can use your bonus action to verbally command your companion to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, or Help action. If no command has been given, it will take the Dodge action automatically. 
___

When your companion hits an enemy that has been Hunter's Marked, it can also deal extra damage equal to your proficiency modifier.
___
When	using	your	Natural	Explorer	feature,	you	
and	your	animal	companion	can	both	move	
stealthily	at	a	normal	pace.

Your	animal	companion	has	abilities	and	game	statistics	determined	in	part	by	your	level.	Your	
companion	uses	your	proficiency	bonus rather	than	its	own. In	addition	to	the	areas	where	it	
normally	uses	its	proficiency	bonus,	an	animal	
companion	also	adds	its	proficiency	bonus to	its	
AC	and	to	its	damage	rolls.

Your	animal	companion	gains	proficiency	in	
two	skills	of	your	choice.	It	also	becomes	
proficient	with	all	saving	throws.

For	each	level	you	gain	after	3rd,	your	animal	
companion	gains	an	additional	hit	die	and	
increases	its	hit	points accordingly.

Whenever	you	gain	the	Ability	Score	
Improvement	class	feature,	your	companion’s	
abilities	also	improve.	Your	companion	can	
increase	one	ability	score	of	your	choice	by	2,	or	
it	can	increase	two	ability	scores	of	your	choice	
by	1.	As	normal,	your	companion can’t	increase
an	ability	score	above	20	using	this	feature	
unless its description	specifies	otherwise.

Your	companion	shares	your	alignment,	and	
has	a personality	trait	and	a	flaw that	you	can		
roll	for	or	select	from	the	tables	below.	Your	
companion	shares	your	ideal,	and its	bond	is	
always,	“The	ranger	who	travels	with	me	is	a	
beloved	companion	for	whom	I	would	gladly	
give	my	life.”
