Blessed by Cosmic Light

Affiliated with the moon and its lunar energy, the Moon Rabbit has blessed your bloodline. Your affinity with the moon allows you to change your form like the moon changes faces; forcing the world to change around you like gravity commands the tides.

Moon's Eye View

Wererabbits have a core need to see the bigger picture and ensure they provide something important to their peers. Especially when it comes to running a society with many independent factions working together, they tend to do their part to be useful in a group and expect others to pull their weight in turn. Wererabbits rely on being on the same page as their brethren. Working as a group requires thinking as a team. Strategy and team-work can be outwitted at any moment in a fight, so the werebeast way relies on a shared goal to pursue when improvisation becomes necessary.

Creating a Wererabbit

The Werebeast curse is a widely debated subject, and not all folks are accepting of night creatures with abilities to demorph their physical self.

If you were born a werebeast through natural hereditary means, your parents likely raised you in a communal warren away from extreme prejudices, where you could experience all the benefits of society without the threat of hunters.

It's possible that you were instead bitten or blessed at an older age. Or did you come into your supernatural powers of shapeshifting through other means entirely? You might have stumbled upon a mysterious animal statue and kept it on you until a moment of dire need, when the latent magic coursed through you and introduced you to your new powers. Or perhaps you have always held an affinity for the moon, and the longer you spent under moonlight the more you noticed this strange surge of energy brewing in your body.

Regardless, you strive for progress. Whether your peers share or understand your powers has no bearing on how you use and hone your skills.

Equipment

You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:

• (a) a shield or (b) any simple melee weapon
• (a) a spear or (b) a sling and 20 ammunition
• (a) a burglar's pack, (b) a dungeoneer's pack, or (c) an explorer's pack
• Studded leather armor, a shortsword, and thieves' tools

Moonkin

Starting at 1st level, you can spend a minute communing with the moon and beckoning forth the friendly spirits of moon rabbits. You can do this during the day or night. You summon four, small spectral rabbits who each have 1 HP and will remain alert for any signs of danger. You can communicate with the rabbits as if you cast Speak with Animals, and they can fulfill basic commands such as “search for [something]” or “perform a short play”. After 8 hours they must return to the moon and their forms will dissipate.

Each rabbit can watch over a 25-foot cube and will repeatedly stomp a foot on the ground to alert you whenever a dangerous Tiny or larger creature touches or enters the watched area. You can designate which creatures don’t count as “dangerous”. You also choose whether the alarm is mental or audible.

A mental alarm alerts you with a stomp/knock in your mind if you are within 5 miles of the warded area. This stomp awakens you if you are sleeping.

An audible alarm produces the sound of a little rabbit feet stomping rapidly.

You can use this feature once per short or long rest.

Resting with moon rabbits on guard wards away nightmares, helping you rest peacefully. In campaigns tracking stress, resting with moon rabbits nearby grants a stress reduction modifier equal to the number of rabbits on alert until you take your next rest.

As you advance in this class, the number of summons will increase to five at level 9, six at level 13, and eight at level 17.

At 11th level, your connection to the rabbits is strong enough that, once a week, they can prepare a Heroes’ Feast of assorted fruits, mochi, rice cakes and other rice dishes.

Beast Form

Also at 1st level, you have a natural secondary form in the shape of a larger-than-average rabbit. As an action on your turn you can polymorph between humanoid and beast form.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum 1). Morphing from beast form to humanoid form also expends a use of this feature. You regain expended uses when you finish a long rest.

You can stay in your beast form indefinitely.

When you roll to recover hit dice in your humanoid form, you choose whether your beast form or your humanoid form recovers those hit dice.

If your humanoid form reaches 0 hit points you will automatically revert to your beast form, but if your beast form is already at 0 hit points you fall unconscious and roll saving throws as normal. If your beast form is at 0 hit points you cannot transform into it.

(Hybrid Form only)

While in Hybrid Form, your melee attacks are blessed with supernatural accuracy. Ask your DM about the moon phase when starting a session. You gain a bonus to hit according to the table below.

Regular Humanoid

Starting when you choose this herd at 3rd level, your wererabbit form has a less startling image. When you transform into hybrid form, you can choose to take on the appearance of a regular halfling, gnome, or other small humanoid instead of your usual hybrid form.

Bonus Proficiency

Also at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with Forgery kits.

Channel Moonlight

At 6th level you gain resistance to psychic damage. Additionally, whenever you take psychic damage, you can choose to restore 1d8 hit points to yourself or to one creature within 25 feet of you.

Psychic Connection

At 10th level, you can telepathically communicate with any creature within 120ft of you. You can chose to inflict damage this way once per long rest, imposing a Wisdom saving throw on the creature. On a failed save the target takes 4d4 psychic damage and is Confused until its next turn.

DC = 8 + your Proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

Watchful

Also at 10th level, you have outwitted so many master hunters that you know every little trick in the book. You could elude any tracker. Any attempts to hide from you are made at a disadvantage. Your passive Perception increases by +10.

Burt

At 14th level you can summon an illusory moon in a space you can see within 60 feet of you. It reflects bright light in a 20ft radius directly into your enemies eyes. Hostile creatures in the moon's radius must make a Constitution saving throw or be Blinded until their next turn. You can move the moon 20ft as a bonus action, forcing any creatures inside its radius to repeat the saving throw.

The moon persists for one minute. You can summon this moon once per long rest.

Anti-magic Fur

Starting when you choose this herd at 3rd level, you gain a +2 AC bonus against magic spell attacks and you roll saving throws against magical effects with advantage. This feature applies to all of your forms, even if you do not have fur.

Snorzerus

At 6th level, you learn to shift off lingering magic. When you transform as a deliberate action, you can choose to end one condition or spell effecting you.

Counterspurn

Beginning at 10th level, your senses have become finely attuned to the sights, sounds and scents made by casting spells. When you see, smell, or hear a creature within 25 feet of you cast a spell, you can use your reaction to leap toward them and disrupt their cast. The target must roll a Concentration check to keep their spell, with a DC = 8 + your Proficiency bonus + your Strength or Constitution modifier (you choose), otherwise the spell fails.

Consume Magic

At 14th level, you can dispel magic as an action. Choose one creature, object, or magical effect within range. Any cantrip on the target ends. For each spell of 1st level or higher on the target, make an ability check using your Wisdom modifier. The DC equals 10 + the spell’s level. On a successful check, the spell ends.

When you successfully dispel a spell this way, or by countering it with your Counterspurn ability, your next melee attack deals 1d6 additional force damage for each level of the spell you countered.
