Introduction

This document exists as one of several that is a way to completely overhault the way Dungeons & Dragons 2024 handles its progresssion and power level. The name comes from older editions of Dungeons & Dragons such as 3rd Edition and similar spinoff games, and aims to empower classes and make D&D 2024 a better feeling game to play for Players.

Skill and Precision

Unchained Rogues devote as much effort to mastering the use of a variety of skills as they do to perfecting their combat abilities, giving them a broad expertise that few other characters can match. Many Unchained Rogues focus on stealth and deception, while others refine the skills that help them in a dungeon environment, such as climbing, finding and disarming traps, and opening locks.

When it comes to combat, Unchained Rogues prioritize cunning over brute strength. An Unchained Rogue would rather make one precise strike, placing it exactly where the attack will hurt the target most, than wear an opponent down with a barrage of attacks. Unchained Rogues have an almost supernatural knack for avoiding danger, and a few learn magical tricks to supplement their other abilities.

A Shady Living

Every town and city has its share of Unchained Rogues. Most of them live up to the worst stereotypes of the class, making a living as burglars, assassins, cutpurses, and con artists. Often, these scoundrels are organized into thieves' guilds or crime families. Plenty of Unchained Rogues operate independently, but even they sometimes recruit apprentices to help them in their scams and heists. A few Unchained Rogues make an honest living as locksmiths, investigators, or exterminators, which can be a dangerous job in a world where dire rats — and wererats — haunt the sewers.

As adventurers, Unchained Rogues fall on both sides of the law. Some are hardened criminals who decide to seek their fortune in treasure hoards, while others take up a life of adventure to escape from the law. Some have learned and perfected their skills with the explicit purpose of infiltrating ancient ruins and hidden crypts in search of treasure. The majority of monks don't shun their neighbors, making frequent visits to nearby towns or villages and exchanging their service for food and other goods. As versatile warriors, monks often end up protecting their neighbors from monsters or tyrants.

The Power of Subterfuge

When brute force won't get the job done, or when magic isn't available or appropriate, the Unchained Rogue rises to the fore. With skills tied to stealth, subterfuge, and trickery, Unchained Rogues can get into and out of trouble in ways that few other characters can emulate.

Some Unchained Rogues who turn to adventuring are former criminals who have decided that dodging monsters is preferable to remaining one step ahead of the law. Others are professional killers in search of a profitable application of their talents between contracts. Some simply love the thrill of overcoming any challenge that stands in their way.

On adventures, an Unchained Rogue is likely to mix an outwardly cautious approach—few Unchained Rogues enjoy combat—with a ravenous hunger for loot. Most of the time, in an Unchained Rogue's mind, taking up arms against a creature is not about killing the creature but about becoming the new owner of its treasure.

Quick Build

You can make an Unchained Rogue quickly by following these suggestions. First, Dexterity should be your highest ability score. Make Intelligence your next-highest if you want to excel at Investigation or plan to take up the Arcane Trickster archetype. Choose Charisma instead if you plan to emphasize deception and social interaction. Second, choose the charlatan background.

Proficiencies

Armor: light armor
Weapons: Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons that have the Finesse or Light Property.
Tools: thieves' tools, two of your choice.
Saving Throws: Dexterity, Intelligence
Skills: Any six of your choice.

Starting Equipment

You start with the following items, plus anything provided by your background.

• (a) Leather Armor, 2 Daggers, a Shortsword, a Shortbow, 20 Arrows, a Quiver, Thieves' Tools, a Burglar's Pack, and 8 GP.
• (b) 100 GP

Maneuver Options

The Martial Maneuvers are presented here in Alphabetical order.

Ambush. When you make a Dexterity (Stealth) check or an Initiative roll, you can expend one Maneuver Die and add the die to the roll, unless you have the Incapacitated condition.

Bait and Switch. When you're within 5 feet of a creature on your turn, you can expend one Maneuver Die and switch places with that creature, provided you spend at least 5 feet of movement and the creature is willing and doesn't have the Incapacitated condition. This movement doesn't provoke Opportunity Attacks. Roll the Maneuver Die. Until the start of your next turn, you or the other creature (your choice) gains a bonus to AC equal to the number rolled.

Commander's Strike. When you take the Attack action on your turn, you can replace one of your attacks to direct one of your companions to strike. When you do so, choose a willing creature who can see or hear you and expend one Maneuver Die. That creature can immediately use its Reaction to make one attack with a weapon or an Unarmed Strike, adding the Maneuver Die to the attack's damage roll on a hit.

Commanding Presence. When you make a Charisma (Intimidation, Performance, or Persuasion) check, you can expend one Maneuver Die and add that die to the roll.

Disarming Attack. When you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can expend one Maneuver Die to attempt to disarm the target. Add the Maneuver Die roll to the attack's damage roll. The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or drop one object of your choice that it's holding, with the object landing in its space.

Distracting Strike. When you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can expend one Maneuver Die to distract the target. Add the Maneuver Die roll to the attack's damage roll. The next attack roll against the target by an attacker other than you has Advantage if the attack is made before the start of your next turn.

Evasive Footwork. As a Bonus Action, you can expend one Maneuver Die and take the Disengage action. You also roll the die and add the number rolled to your AC until the start of your next turn.

Feinting Attack. As a Bonus Action, you can expend one Maneuver Die to feint, choosing one creature within 5 feet of yourself as your target. You have Advantage on your next attack roll against that target this turn. If that attack hits, add the Maneuver Die to the attack's damage roll.

Goading Attack. When you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can expend one Maneuver Die to attempt to goad the target into attacking you. Add the Maneuver Die to the attack's damage roll. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or have Disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you until the end of your next turn.

Spellcasting

At 1st level, you have learned to cast spells. See chapter 7 of the 2024 Player's Handbook for the rules on spellcasting. The information below details how you use those rules as an Arcane Trickster.

Cantrips. You know three cantrips: Mage Hand and two other cantrips of your choice from the Unchained Wizard spell list (see that class's document for its list). Mind Sliver and Minor Illusion are recommended.

Whenever you gain an Unchained Rogue level, you can replace one of your cantrips, except Mage Hand, with another Unchained Wizard cantrip of your choice.

When you reach Unchained Rogue level 10, you learn another Unchained Wizard cantrip of your choice.

Spell Slots. The Arcane Trickster Spellcasting table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your level 1+ spells. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a Long Rest.

Prepared Spells of 1st+ Level. You prepare the list of level 1+ spells that are available for you to cast with this feature. To start, choose two level 1 Unchained Wizard spells. Disguise Self and Sleep are recommended.

The number of spells on your list increases as you gain Unchained Rogue levels, as shown in the Prepared Spells column of the Arcane Trickster Spellcasting table. Whenever that number increases, choose additional Unchained Wizard spells until the number of spells on your list matches the number in the Arcane Trickster Spellcasting table. The chosen spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you're a level 7 Unchained Rogue, your list of prepared spells can include five Unchained Wizard spells of level 1 or 2 in any combination.

Changing Your Prepared Spells. Whenever you gain an Unchained Rogue level, you can replace one spell on your list with another Unchained Wizard spell for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your Unchained Wizard spells.

Spellcasting Focus. You can use an Arcane Focus as a Spellcasting Focus for your Unchained Wizard spells.

Mage Hand Legerdemain

At 1st level, you learn the Mage Hand Cantrip. It does not count against your Unchained Wizard Cantrips Known.

When you cast Mage Hand, you can cast it as a Bonus Action, and you can make the spectral hand Invisible. You can control the hand as a Bonus Action, and through it, you can make Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) checks.

Magical Ambush

At 5th level, if you have the Invisible condition when you cast a spell on a creature, it has Disadvantage on any saving throw it makes against the spell on the same turn.

Versatile Trickster

At 10th level, You gain the ability to distract targets with your Mage Hand. When you use the Trip option of your Cunning Strike on a creature, you can also use that option on another creature within 5 feet of the spectral hand.

Spell Thief

At 15th level, You gain the ability to magically steal the knowledge of how to cast a spell from another spellcaster.

Immediately after a creature casts a spell that targets you or includes you in its area of effect, you can take a Reaction to force the creature to make an Intelligence saving throw. The DC equals your spell save DC. On a failed save, you negate the spell's effect against you, and you steal the knowledge of the spell if it is at least level 1 and of a level you can cast (it doesn't need to be an Unchained Wizard spell). For the next 8 hours, you have the spell prepared. The creature can't cast it until the 8 hours have passed.

Once you steal a spell with this feature, you can't use this feature again until you finish a Long Rest.

Assassinate

At 1st level, you're adept at ambushing a target, granting you the following benefits.

Initiative. You have Advantage on Initiative rolls.

Surprising Strikes. During the first round of each combat, you have Advantage on attack rolls against any creature that hasn't taken a turn. If your Sneak Attack hits any target during that round, the target takes extra damage of the weapon's type equal to your Unchained Rogue level.

Assassin's Tools

At 1st level, you gain a Disguise Kit and a Poisoner's Kit, and you have proficiency with them.

Infiltration Expertise

At 5th level, you are expert at the following techniques that aid your infiltrations.

Masterful Mimicry. You can unerringly mimic another person's speech, handwriting, or both if you have spent at least 1 hour studying them.

Roving Aim. Your Speed isn't reduced to 0 by using Steady Aim.

Envenom Weapons

At 10th level, when you use the Poison option of your Cunning Strike, the target also takes 2d6 Poison damage whenever it fails the saving throw. This damage ignores Resistance to Poison damage.

Death Strike

At 15th level, when you hit with your Sneak Attack on the first round of a combat, the target must make a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 plus your Dexterity modifier and Proficiency Bonus). On a failed save, the attack counts as a Critical hit and ignores Resistance and Immunity. On a successful save, the target takes damage as normal for the attack as well as an additional 4d6 of the weapon's Damage Type. If the target has 100 or fewer Hit Points and fails its save, it is instead reduced to 0 Hit Points.

You must finish a Short or Long Rest to use this feature again.

Ear for Deceit

At 1st level, you develop a talent for picking out lies. If a creature tells you a lie, you instantly know you've been lied to (though you do not know the exact nature of the lie). If you are lied to, you gain Advantage on all Chrisma Checks made against that creature for 1 minute.

Eye for Detail

Starting at 1st level, you can take the Search and Study Actions as Bonus Actions instead.

When you take the Search or Study Action as a Bonus Action, you can roll 1d6 and add the result to the roll. You may do so a number of times equal to your Dexterity Modifier (minimum once), and regain all expended uses when you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Insightful Fighting

At 1st level, you gain the ability to decipher an opponent's tactics and develop a counter to them. You can take the Study Action as a Bonus Action to target a creature you can see. It must make a Charisma (Deception) Skill Check (DC 8 plus your Dexterity Modifier and Proficiency Bonus). On a failure, you treat that creature as a valid target for your Sneak Attack feature, even if it would not be, until the start of your next turn.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Dexterity Modifier (minimum once), and regain all expended uses when you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Reliable Eye

Starting at 5th level, you have advantage on any Wisdom (Insight) or Intelligence (Investigation) Skill Checks you make.

Unerring Eye

At 10th level, your senses are almost impossible to foil. As a Bonus Action, you sense the presence of illusions, shapechangers not in their original form, and other magic designed to deceive the senses within 30 feet of you, provided you aren't blinded or deafened. You sense that an effect is attempting to trick you, but you gain no insight into what is hidden or into its true nature.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Dexterity Modifier (minimum once), and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.

Eye for Weakness

At 15th level, you learn to exploit a creature's weaknesses by carefully studying its tactics and movement. While your Insightful Fighting feature applies to a creature, your Sneak Attack damage against that creature increases by 2d6 and you score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.

Master of Intrigue

At 1st level, you gain proficiency with the disguise Kit, the forgery kit, and one gaming set of your choice. You also learn two languages of your choice.

Additionally, you can unerringly mimic the speech patterns and accent of a creature that you hear speak for at least 1 minute, enabling you to pass yourself off as a native speaker of a particular land, provided that you know the language.

Master of Tactics

At 1st level, you can use the Help action as a bonus action. Additionally, when you use the Help action to aid an ally in attacking a creature, the target of that attack can be within 30 feet of you, rather than within 5 feet of you, if the target can see or hear you.

Fin ally, you gain one additional Maneuver Die and learn one additional Maneuver from the list in this document.

Insightful Manipulator

At 5th level, you can replace any Charisma (Deception) Skill Check you make to manipulate a creature into believing you are someone you aren't with a Wisdom (Insight) Skill Check instead.

Additionally, you gain Expertise with the Disguise Kit, Forgery Kit, and the Gaming Set you chose with your Master of Intrigue Feature if you don't have Expertise with all of the tools listed above already.

Misdirection

At 10th level, you can sometimes cause another creature to suffer an attack meant for you. When you are targeted by an attack while a creature is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to have the attack target that creature instead of you.

Soul of Deceit

At 15th level, your thoughts can't be read by telepathy or other means, unless you allow it. You can present false thoughts by succeeding on a Deception Skill Check contested by the mind reader's Insight Skill Check.

Additionally, no matter what you say, magic that would determine if you are telling the truth indicates you are being truthful if you so choose, and you can't be compelled to tell the truth by magic.

Finally, if you would be hit with an attack, you can use a reaction to force that attack to miss instead. You must finish a short or long rest to force an attack to miss in this way again.

Wails From the Grave

At 1st level, you can cause your Sneak Attack Dice to deal Necrotic Damage instead of the normal Damage they would deal.

Additionally, Immediately after you deal your Sneak Attack damage to a creature on your turn, you can target a second creature that you can see within 30 feet of the first creature. Roll half the number of Sneak Attack dice for your level (round up), and the second creature takes Necrotic damage equal to the roll’s total as wails of the dead momentarily sound around them.

You can target a second creature in this way a number of times equal to your Dexterity modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Short Long Rest.

Whispers of the Dead

At 1st level, Whenever you finish a Short or Long Rest, you can choose one skill or tool proficiency that you lack and gain it, as a ghostly presence shares its knowledge with you. You lose this proficiency when you use this benefit again to choose a different proficiency.

Voice of Death

At 9th level, you can cast Speak with Dead once without a spell slot, requiring no spell components and using Dexterity as the spellcasting modifier.

You regain the ability to cast it this way when you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Tokens of the Departed

At 5th level, the spirits of the dead are drawn to you, and echoes of their past lives magically manifest as strange curios with resonant power.

Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you gain soul trinkets equal to your Proficiency Bonus minus one; each soul trinket is a Tiny object (the DM determines the trinket’s form or has you roll on the Trinkets table in the Player’s Handbook to generate it). These trinkets last until you finish another Long Rest, at which point they disintegrate. If you ever move more than 30 feet from a trinket, the trinket immediately teleports to you, appearing somewhere on your person.

Using Soul Trinkets. You can use soul trinkets in the following ways:

Death’s Knell. When you deal Sneak Attack damage on your turn, you can expend one soul trinket and immediately use Wails from the Grave without expending a use of that feature. The expended trinket is destroyed.

Life Essence. While you have at least one soul trinket, you have Advantage on Death Saving Throws and Constitution saving throws.

Spirit Query. You can take a Magic action to expend one soul trinket and immediately cast the Augury spell, requiring no spell components and using Dexterity as the spellcasting modifier. The expended trinket is destroyed.

Ghost Walk

At 10th level, as a Bonus Action, you assume a spectral form, gaining the benefits below for 1 minute or until you end them (no action required).

Flight. You gain a Fly Speed equal to your Speed and can hover.

Hazy Form. Attack rolls have Disadvantage against you and you gain Resistance against Non-magical Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing Damage.

Bloodthirst

At 1st level, If your Sneak Attack hits a Bloodied creature, the target takes extra damage of the weapon's type equal to half your Unchained Rogue level (round up).

In addition, when an enemy you can see within 30 feet of yourself takes damage and is Bloodied after taking that damage but not killed outright, you can take a Reaction and teleport to an unoccupied space you can see within 5 feet of that enemy. You can then make one melee attack or Unarmed Strike. You can use this Reaction a number of times equal to your Dexterity modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Dread Allegiance

At 1st level, Choose one of the Dead Three: Bane, Bhaal, or Myrkul. You gain Resistance to one type of damage and the ability to cast a cantrip, as detailed in the table below; Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for this cantrip (you choose which when you gain this feature and may not change your choice later). When you finish a Long Rest, you can change your choice.

Strike Fear

At 5th level, You gain the following Cunning Strike option.

Terrify (Cost: 1d6). The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw, or it has the Frightened condition for 1 minute. While the target is Frightened in this way, you have Advantage on attack rolls against the target. The Frightened target repeats the save at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Aura of Malevolence

At 10th level, You radiate malignant power associated with one of the Dead Three. When you use Bloodthirst and teleport, each creature of your choice within 10 feet of either the space you left or your destination space (your choice) takes damage equal to your Dexterity modifier; the damage type is the same as the damage Resistance granted by your choice in the Dread Allegiance feature. Damage dealt by this feature ignores Resistance.

Dread Incarnate

At 15th level, You gain the following benefits.

Cutthroat. You regain one expended use of Bloodthirst when you finish a Short Rest.

Murderous Intent. When you roll for your Sneak Attack damage, you can treat a roll of a 1 or 2 on the die as a 3.

Skirmisher

At 1st level, you are difficult to pin down during a fight. You can move up to half your speed as a reaction when an enemy ends its turn within 5 feet of you. This movement doesn't provoke opportunity attacks.

At 10th level, you can move your full speed instead.

Survivalist

At 1st level, you gain proficiency in the Nature and Survival skills if you don't already have it. You then gain Expertise in those skills.

Ambush Master

At 10th level, you excel at leading ambushes and acting first in a fight. You have advantage on initiative rolls.

In addition, the first creature you hit during the first round of a combat becomes easier for you and others to strike; attack rolls against that target have advantage until the start of your next turn.

Sudden Strike

At 15th level, you can strike with deadly speed. If you take the Attack action on your turn, you can make one additional attack as part of that Action. This attack can benefit from your Sneak Attack even if you have already used it this turn, but you can't use your Sneak Attack against the same target more than once in a turn. This attack cannot benefit from Steady Aim or Power Attack.

Psionic Power

At 1st level, You harbor a wellspring of psionic energy within yourself. It is represented by your Psionic Energy Dice, which fuel certain powers you have from this subclass. The Soulknife Energy Dice table shows the number of these dice you have when you reach certain Unchained Rogue levels, and the table shows the die size.

Any features in this subclass that use a Psionic Energy Die use only the dice from this subclass. Some of your powers expend a Psionic Energy Die, as specified in a power's description, and you can't use a power if it requires you to use a die when your Psionic Energy Dice are all expended.

You regain one of your expended Psionic Energy Dice when you finish a Short Rest, and you regain all of them when you finish a Long Rest.

Psi-Bolstered Knack. If you fail an ability check using a skill or tool with which you have proficiency, you can roll one Psionic Energy Die and add the number rolled to the check, potentially turning failure into success. The die is expended only if the roll then succeeds.

Psychic Whispers. You can establish telepathic communication between yourself and others. As a Magic action, choose one or more creatures you can see, up to a number of creatures equal to your Proficiency Bonus, and then roll one Psionic Energy Die. For a number of hours equal to the number rolled, the chosen creatures can speak telepathically with you, and you can speak telepathically with them. To send or receive a message (no action required), you and the other creature must be within 1 mile of each other. A creature can end the telepathic connection at any time (no action required).

The first time you use this power after each Long Rest, you don't expend the Psionic Energy Die. All other times you use the power, you expend the die.

Psychic Blades

At 1st level, you can manifest shimmering blades of psychic energy. Whenever you take the Attack action or make an Opportunity Attack, you can manifest a Psychic Blade in your free hand and make the attack with that blade. The magic blade has the following traits:

Soul Blades

At 5th level, you can now use the following powers with your Psychic Blades.

Homing Strikes. If you make an attack roll with your Psychic Blade and miss the target, you can roll one Psionic Energy Die and add the number rolled to the attack roll. If this causes the attack to hit, the die is expended.

Psychic Teleportation. As a Bonus Action, you manifest a Psychic Blade, expend one Psionic Energy Die and roll it, and throw the blade at an unoccupied space you can see up to a number of feet away equal to 10 times the number rolled. You then teleport to that space, and the blade vanishes.

Rakish Audacity

At 1st level, your confidence propels you into battle. You can give yourself a bonus to your initiative rolls equal to your Charisma modifier.

Also at 1st level, you gain an additional way to use your Sneak Attack; you don't need advantage on your attack roll to use Sneak Attack against a creature if you are within 5 feet of it, no other creatures are within 5 feet of you, and you don't have disadvantage on the attack roll. All the other rules for Sneak Attack still apply to you.

Panache

At 5th level, your charm becomes extraordinarily beguiling. As an action, you can make a Persuasion skill check contested by a creature's Insight skill check. The creature must be able to hear you, and the two of you must share a language.

If you succeed on the check and the creature is hostile to you, it has disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you and can't make opportunity attacks against targets other than you. This effect lasts for 1 minute, until one of your companions attacks the target or affects it with a spell, or until you and the target are more than 60 feet apart.

If you succeed on the check and the creature isn't hostile to you, it is charmed by you for 1 minute. While charmed, it regards you as a friendly acquaintance. This effect ends immediately if you or your companions do anything harmful to it.

Elegant Maneuver

At 10th level, your maneuver dice become d8s.

Additionally, if you would be hit by a melee weapon attack or unarmed strike, you can use your reaction to reduce the attack roll of the attacker by your charisma modifier, potentially turning a hit into a miss.

Master Duelist

At 15th level, your mastery of the blade lets you turn failure into success in combat. Once per Turn, if you miss with an attack roll, you can roll it again with advantage.

On a failed check, the scroll disintegrates.
