The Pariah
In a dimly lit cavern, a human man smiles as he finishes the last of the intricate seals on his arms. Standing, he extends his hands and a torrent of flames erupts from his palms, illuminating the cavern. The flesh bubbles and burns, but
the seal holds, successfully containing and channeling the power that he has bound to himself. Satisfied, the man lets the flames dissipate.
In the heart of a secluded chamber, an elven woman
sits within a ritual circle etched with intricate runes and glowing symbols, the perimeter adorned with blood-red
sigils. Her preparations were meticulous—every rune, every sigil, precisely placed. Sweat beads on her forehead as she chants an incantation in a forgotten tongue, focusing on a spectral entity struggling against invisible chains. She will bind this once powerful being and take its remaining
strength for herself.
It watched as the knights closed in around it, their boots crunching on the forest floor. A smile spreads across the
face of its prison of flesh, and with a violent, wet tear, the mortal form bursts open. Flesh and bone splitting wide
as black, writhing tendrils erupt into the air. It was free, unbound. But it would not last, the binding seals that had been shattered were already rebuilding themselves, trying to reform its prison of skin and bone and sinew. Its freedom, as always, would only be temporary. Later that evening, a male tiefling stands in a clearing surrounded by half a dozen dead knights, their blood soaking into the earth. And behind the man's empty eyes, something sinister grins.
The three characters described above are examples
of the outcasts known as Pariahs. By performing dark
rituals and binding forgotten powers, these desperate outsiders can obtain great and terrible power.
Forgotten Remnants
Remnants are the echoes of once-powerful entities, great beings who once commanded immense power in ages past. Now stripped of their strength through ancient curses, catastrophic battles, or the inexorable passage of time,
they have become mere shadows of their former selves.
These eldritch beings, overthrown sovereigns, and forgotten gods now linger between worlds, seeking some
way to regain but a fraction of their former power and glory. Though diminished, they retain fragments of their former strength, strength that can belong to a Pariah that dares
to seek them out and bind them.
Somber Fates
Often fueled by a need for revenge or the desire to achieve the impossible, a Pariah is driven by this desperate pursuit for power to seek out and bind a remnant. This dangerous path allows them to unleash great power, but at a great cost, burning away their own vitality to fuel their bound accomplice.
Yet they endure. They accept the strange whispers,
the pain, and the toll it takes on their body and soul. For a Pariah, their power is not a gift, it is something they took for themself, something they grasp with bloodied hands and hold tight no matter the cost.
Multiclassing and the Pariah
If your group uses the rule on multiclassing in the Player's Handbook, here's what you need to know if you choose the Pariah as one of your classes.
Ability Score Minimum. As a multiclass character, you must have at least a Charisma score of 13 to take your first level in Pariah, or to take a level in another class if you are already a Pariah.
Proficiencies Gained. If Pariah is not your initial class, you gain no proficiencies of any kind when you take your first level as a Pariah.
Creating your Pariah
When creating a Pariah, the most important thing to consider is why they would seek such a dangerous source of power. Were they the victim of a cruel lord and swore vengeance,
no matter the personal cost? Were they caught in a dire situation, where all hope seemed lost, and a remnant whispered to them with an irresistible promise of power?
Alternatively, maybe your Pariah turned to a remnant out
of sheer necessity, seeking the strength to protect loved
ones or survive in a hostile world?
Quick Build
You can make a Pariah quickly by using these suggestions. First, make Charisma your highest ability score, followed
by Constitution. Second, choose the hermit background.

Class Features
As a Pariah, you gain the following class features.
Hit Points
- Hit Dice: 1d12 per Pariah level
- Hit Points at 1st Level: 12 + your Constitution modifier
- Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d12 (or 7) + your Constitution modifier per Pariah level after 1st
Proficiencies
- Armor: Light armor
- Weapons: Simple weapons
- Tools: None
- Saving Throws: Constitution, Charisma
- Skills: Choose two from Arcana, History, Insight, Intimidation, Persuasion, Religion, and Stealth
Equipment
As a Pariah you start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:
- (a) a light crossbow and 20 bolts or (b) a sling
- (a) a quarterstaff or (b) two daggers
- (a) an explorer’s pack or (b) a scholar’s pack
- Leather armor and one object used in your Rite
Alternately, if your group uses the starting wealth rule
to purchase equipment, Pariahs start with 2d4 x 10gp.
Rites
You have performed a set of sinister rites, and in doing so
you have created a set of seals that forever bind a powerful supernatural entity known as a Remnant to your soul.
At 1st level, you decide what type of rites you performed, those of the Cultist, the Demonologist, the Doctor, the Heretic, the Reliquarian, or the Wretched. Your choice
of Rite also determines which Remnant you have bound.
Your choice of Rites grants you features at 1st level, and
again when you reach 6th, 10th, 14th, and 18th level in
this class.
Supernatural Strike
Also at 1st level, you learn how to channel a portion of your bound remnant's power into a weapon, allowing it to strike with otherworldly force. As a bonus action, you can touch
a weapon that you are proficient with and infuse it with supernatural power.
While wielding this weapon, you can make a special type
of attack with it, known as a Supernatural Strike. When you attack with a supernatural strike, you use your Charisma modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, for the attack
and damage rolls.
This benefit lasts until you use this feature to empower a different weapon. You can only have one weapon empowered in this way at a time.
Seal Magic
At 2nd level, you learn how to draw out the power of your bound remnant in the form of spells. The Pariah spell list
is included at the end of this class.
Cantrips
You learn two Cantrips of your choice from the Pariah spell list, which can be found at the end of this class description.
You learn another Pariah Cantrip at 4th and 10th levels.
Sacrifice Dice
To cast a Pariah spell of 1st-level or higher, you must roll
at least one Sacrifice Die, which is a d6. The first time you cast a Pariah spell, you roll one Sacrifice Die. The amount
of Sacrifice Dice rolled increases by one for each spell cast
in this manner. For example, when casting your third spell, you would roll 3d6. This count resets when you finish a
short or long rest.
When you roll a Sacrifice Dice, you reduce your maximum
hit points by the total. This reduction cannot be lessened
or negated in any way. If this would reduce your hit point maximum to 0 or less, you do not reduce your maximum
hit points and the spell fails.
At the end of your next long rest, any reduction to your hit point maximum from Sacrifice Dice returns to normal.
Spell Level
Your Pariah level limits the potency of spells that you can produce, as shown in the Spell Level column of the Pariah Table. All of your spells are cast at the level of your Spell Level. For example, if you are 5th level Pariah and you cast the 1st-level spell bane, you cast it as a 2nd-level spell.
Spells Known of 1st-level and Higher
At 2nd level, you learn two 1st-level spells of your choice
from the Pariah spell list at the end of this class description.
The Spells Known column of the Pariah table shows when you learn additional Pariah spells of your choice of 1st-level or higher. All spells you learn must be of a level equal to
your Spell Level or lower. As an example, when you reach
5th level as a Pariah, you can learn one new Pariah spell
of either 1st or 2nd-level.
Additionally, when you gain a level in
this class, you can choose one of
the Pariah spells you know and
replace it with another spell from
the pariah spell list, which must also
be of a level equal to your spell level or lower.
On Hit Points & Sacrifice
A reduction to your hit point maximum from Sacrifice Dice cannot be lessened, negated, or undone by any means, except when a Pariah
feature specifies otherwise.
Rite Spells
Each sets of Rites has a list of Rite Spells you learn at the Pariah levels noted in your Rites description. Your Rite Spells count as Pariah spells for you and do not count against your total number of Pariah Spells Known. You cannot replace them with other Pariah spells.
Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your Pariah spells, as you are using your will to draw out the power of the Remnant bound to you. You use Charisma when a spell refers to your spellcasting ability, when setting the saving throw DC for a spell, and when making a spell attack roll.
Spell Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
Spellcasting Focus
As you use the Remnant you've bound to your soul to produce spells, your body functions as your spellcasting focus for your Pariah spells. You must have a free hand to cast spells that require somatic or material components, and you must still provide material components that are consumed by a spell
or have a gold cost.
Vivify
Also at 2nd level, you learn how to restore some of the
vitality that is lost when you channel your remnants power.
When you spend one or more Hit Dice to regain hit points,
you also increase your hit point maximum by the same
amount. This increase in hit points cannot exceed
your normal total.
Remnant Form
At 3rd level, you learn how to
release the seals that bind your
remnant, transforming yourself
into a creature that resembles its
original form. As a bonus action, you
can transform into the Remnant Form
associated with your Rite.
You can remain in your Remnant Form
for up to 1 minute. You can revert to your
normal form earlier by using a bonus action
on your turn. You automatically revert if you
fall unconscious, drop to 0 hit points, or die.
While you are transformed, the following
rules apply:
- Your game statistics are replaced by the
statistics in your Remnant Form stat block,
but you retain your ability scores. You also retain
all of your skill and saving throw proficiencies, in
addition to gaining those of your remnant. - When you transform, you assume your Remnant
Forms hit points (see 'Remnant Hit Points' below).
When you revert to your normal form, you return
to the number of hit points you had before you transformed. If you revert as a result of dropping
to 0 hit points, any excess damage carries over to
your normal form. - You retain the benefit of any features from your
class, race, or other source and can use them if
your Remnant Form is physically capable of doing so. - When you roll Sacrifice Dice while in your Remnant Form, you reduce your Remnant Forms hit points by
the result of the roll, instead of your normal forms hit point maximum. If this reduces your Remnant Form
to 0 hit points, any excess damage reduces your hit
point maximum as normal. - When you transform, your equipment merges into your Remnant Form. Your Remnant benefits from the magical properties of attuned items that you are wearing or wielding, but not their mundane properties.
For example, if you are attuned to and wielding a +1 club, your Remnant Form gains a +1 bonus to its attack and damage rolls, but it does not use the clubs damage die.
Once you transform into your Remnant Form, you can't
do so again until you finish a short or long rest.
Remnant Hit Points
Your remnant gains power from your sacrifices. When
you roll Sacrifice Dice while in your normal form, your remnant gains hit points equal to the total result of the
roll + your Constitution modifier.
Your Remnant Form cannot gain hit points from any
other source, and you can't transform into your Remnant Form when it has 0 hit points. Your Remnant Forms hit points persist until the end of your next long rest.
Additionally, as an action, you can choose to roll Sacrifice Dice as if casting a Pariah spell. When you roll Sacrifice Dice in this way, you add your Constitution modifier to every die when calculating how many hit points your Remnant gains.
Remnant Form Appearance
You determine your Remnant's appearance, but this has no effect on its abilities. Your remnant is likely otherworldly in appearance, but all of them are at least vaguely humanoid in shape.
Improved Transformation
When you reach 7th level in this class, your Remnant Form transformation lasts for 10 minutes, and it only ends early
if it is reduced to 0 hit points, or if you use a bonus action
to revert to your normal form.
Finally, you can transform into your Remnant Form twice, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.
Specialized Seals
You have learned how to create specialized binding seals, granting you a greater degree of control over your remnants powers.
Also at 3rd level, you create two seals of your choice from the list at the end of this class. When you gain certain Pariah levels, you create additional seals of your choice, as shown in the Seals Known column of the Pariah table. If a seal has a prerequisite, like a certain type of Rite or a certain Pariah level, you must meet those prerequisites to create it.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice
by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above
20 using this feature.
Extra Attack
Starting at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, when you take the Attack action on your turn. Moreover, if you use your action to cast a Pariah spell, or activate a spell you are concentrating on (such as witch bolt), you can attack with a supernatural strike as a bonus action on that turn.
Finally, when you attack with a supernatural strike, your damage counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.
Controlled Sacrifice
At 9th level, when you roll a 1 or 6 on a Sacrifice Die, you can reroll the die. You must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 6.
Unbound Transformation
The innately magical nature of your bound remnant surges through you when you transform. At 11th level, when you transform into your Remnant Form you can cast one Pariah Spell you know as part of your transformation. The spell must have a casting time of one action, or one bonus action.
This spell does not require the use of any Sacrifice Dice, and does not count toward determining the number
of Sacrifice Dice required for future spells.
Finally, while you are in your Remnant Form, you have advantage on saving throws against spells and other overtly magical effects.
Permanent Unbinding
When you reach 15th level in this class, your mastery of your Remnant Form allows you to maintain it indefinitely. Your transformation only ends if your Remnant Form is reduced
to 0 hit points, or if you use a bonus action to revert to your normal form.
Sacrifice Mastery
At 20th level, you have gained mastery over the blood sacrifices that you use to fuel your remnant. When you roll Sacrifice Dice, you can choose the result of each die instead of rolling.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.
Pariah Rites
You have bound a powerful extraplanar or supernatural
entity to your soul. The specific remnant that you have bound depends on which set of rites you used, as shown below:
| Rites of the... | Remnant |
|---|---|
| Cultist | Aberration |
| Demonologist | Demon |
| Doctor | Abomination |
| Heretic | Celestial |
| Reliquarian | Lich |
| Wretch | Swarmheart |
Remnants Goals
When you decide what rites were performed, you can also decide what personality traits, alignment, and goals your remnant has. To decide on a goal for your remnant, you
can either choose your own or roll a d4.
| d4 | Entities Goal |
|---|---|
| 1 | This remnants goals align with your own, it offered you its power as freely as it could. |
| 2 | This vengeful remnant wishes to exact its revenge on those who wronged it. |
| 3 | This manipulative remnant constantly seeks to corrupt you, hoping to eventually take control. |
| 4 | You bound this malicious remnant against its will, and it wishes for your death so that it may be free. |
Cultist
You have consorted with insane elder gods and unknowable entities that lurk in the dark between the stars, and you have emerged forever changed. Now bound to an eldritch remnant from a plane of madness, you wield unsettling powers that defy the natural order.
Partial Unsealing
1st-level Cultist Rites Feature
You can use a bonus action to transform one of your
arms into a writhing tentacle until the end of your turn.
The tentacle has a reach of 10 feet and can use a one-handed weapon to make a Supernatural Strike. It can also perform tasks as a normal arm would, but it is unfit to wield shields.
Finally, when you attack with a supernatural strike, you can choose to deal cold damage on hit.
Whispered Thoughts
1st-level Cultist Rites Feature
You can telepathically communicate with any creature you can see within 60 feet. You don’t need to share a language, but the target must speak at least one language to respond.

to have your tentacles impede their movement (no action required). That creature treats the area affected by your eldritch domain as difficult terrain.
Restraining Tentacles
10th-level Cultist Rites Feature
The strength of your otherworldly tentacles grows. When
you are in your Remnant form and you hit a creature that
is already grappled as a result of your tentacle action, that creature becomes restrained instead of grappled.
As an action, a restrained creature can make a Strength saving throw against your Spell Save DC, ending both the grappled and restrained conditions on a success.

Demonologist

Doctor
You have performed a sinister alchemical experiment on yourself, forming a monster that now dwells within your
very soul.
Whether you performed this experiment by choice or
under duress, you now find yourself irrevocably altered, forever wrestling with a darker persona—a monster driven
by primal instincts and capable of terrifying strength.
Medical Practitioner
1st-level Doctor Rites Feature
Over the course of your experimentations, you developed
a strong knowledge of medical practices. You gain proficiency in the Medicine skill, and when you expend a hit die as part of a short rest, you can roll it twice and take the higher result.
Skilled Alchemist
1st-level Doctor Rites Feature
Your manic experimentation has led you to start crafting potent Concoctions that mimic the effects of powerful spells:
Concoctions Known. You learn to craft two Concoctions of your choice from the list of Doctors concoctions at the end of this set of Rites. You learn one additional Concoction at 6th level, and another at 10th, 14th, and 18th levels.
Additionally, during each long rest, you can spend 1 hour experimenting. Choose one of the Concoctions you know and replace it with another from the list of Doctors concoctions.
Creating a Concoction. During each long rest, you can spend 1 hour using alchemist's supplies to create individual Tiny vials that contain one copy of each Concoction that you know. A Concoction produces its spell at your current Pariah Spell Level, and all effects of the Concoction are chosen when it is created. Your Concoctions become inert and unusable at the end of your next long rest.
As an action, you can use alchemist's supplies to craft one vial of one Concoction you know by rolling Sacrifice Dice, as if casting a pariah spell.
Using a Concoction. Any creature can take the Use an Object action to drink one of your Concoctions or administer one to a target within reach, or throw a Concoction at a point it can see within 30 feet. When thrown, an Elixir produces its spell effect at its point of impact. Elixirs use your Pariah Spellcasting Ability.
Concentration. If a Concoction produces a spell that requires concentration, it does not require concentration,
but instead only lasts for three rounds (or fewer if dispelled).
If a creature drinks a Concoction it can concentrate on the spell as normal.
Finally, due to your skills as an alchemist, you are proficient with Alchemist's Tools, and when you attack with a supernatural strike, you can choose to deal poison
damage on hit.

the target prone.

creature. Your bound remnant
