##### A 5e class by Arcanissa/Oli # Mirror Knight The path of the mirrored one is a long and winding one. Lets begin shall we? The first step is when night becomes day, when the warrior should emerge from their abode, ready to tackle the day before day becomes night and light becomes dark once more. This is the first lesson to be learnt. \pagebreak <div class='classTable wide'> ##### Warden | Level | Proficiency Bonus | Bonus Features| |:---:|:---:|:---|:---:| | 1st | +2 | Reflective Hide | | 2nd | +2 | Mirrored Soul, Souldawn, Souldusk | | 3rd | +2 | Knight Archetype | | 4th | +2 | Ability Score Increase | | 5th | +3 | Extra Attack | | 6th | +3 | Ability Score Increase | | 7th | +3 | Knight Archetype | | 8th | +3 | Ability Score Increase | | 9th | +4 | Enhanced Projection | | 10th | +4 | Knight Archetype | | 11th | +4 | ─ | | 12th | +4 | Ability Score Increase | | 13th | +5 | ─ | | 14th | +5 | Shattered Soulborn | | 15th | +5 | Knight Archetype | | 16th | +5 | Ability Score Increase | | 17th | +6 | ─ | | 18th | +6 | Knight Archetype | | 19th | +6 | Ability Score Increase | | 20th | +6 | Reflective Hide Upgrade | </div> ## Class Features As a mirror knight, you gain the following class features. #### Hit Points ___ - **Hit Dice:** 1d10 per Mirror Knight level - **Hit Points at 1st Level:** 10 + your Constitution modifier. - **Hit Points at Higher Levels:** 1d10 (or 6) + your Constitution modifier per Mirror Knight level after 1st #### Proficiencies ___ - **Armor:** medium armor, heavy armor, shields - **Weapons:** simple weapons, martial weapons - **Tools:** none ___ - **Saving Throws:** Constitution, Intelligence - **Skills:** Choose three from Athletics, Arcana, Acrobatics, History, Persuasion, Intimidation, Perception and Survival. #### Equipment You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background: - *(a)* scale mail *(b)* chain mail armor, longbow, and 20 arrow - *(a)* a martial weapon and shield or *(b)* two martial weapons - *(a)* a light crossbow and 20 bolts or *(b)* two handaxes - *(a)* a dungeoneer's pack or *(b)* an explorer's pack ### Reflective Hide You soul has altered your body, you seem far more connected to the weave as you shift between it, allowing you more command when it is used against you.
