📋 About This Mod
Raven Queen's Chosen: Shadar-Kai
Introduction
This mod aims to bring in the Shadar-Kai as described in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes. They're portrayed here as an elven subrace, though they're more like distant cousins from the Shadowfell.
If you like my work, please consider leaving a tip on Ko-fi! Neither my mods, nor support for them, will ever be gated behind or be based on payment or donation - this is just for if you feel like encouraging my coffee habit xD
To Be a Shadar-Kai
As a Shadar-Kai, you receive the base racial bonuses of Elves. You also have an additional +1 to Constitution, resistance to Necrotic damage, and the Action Blessing of the Raven Queen.
Blessing of the Raven Queen
You begin with a Bonus Action, Blessing of the Raven Queen. This Bonus Action allows you to teleport up to 9m to any unoccupied space that you can see, an amount of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest. Upon reaching Level 3, whenever you use this Bonus Action, you gain resistance to all damage until the start of your next turn.
