Rogue Fencer Subclass

Description

This is an adaptation of the Fencer Roguish Archetype by LaserLlama. This adds Battlemaster like maneuvers called Exploits that expand the Rogues martial capabilities and aims to let them be an accomplished front line attacker by combining reactions, exploits and sneak attacks. I have deviated a bit from the homebrew both due to system limitations and personal balance choices which will be noted below if you are curious about what they are or my reasoning. I may change them in future if this turns out to be over or under-tuned but for now I'm happy enough with it for a 1. 0 release. And now with a custome subclass icon  courtesy of the incredible Dragonify03!

-Expert Duelist: You've become so adept with your blade that it flicks out faster than the eye can see. If you take the attack action while wielding only a one handed finesse weapon you may take an additional attack.

-Sharp reflexes: You receive +4 bonus to initiative rolls allowing you to position and deal with threats immediately

-Counterattack: When a creature hits you with a melee attack you can Counterattack as a reaction. Any Exploit you use as part of this attack does not cost an Exploit Die.

-All exploit saving throws have a dc = 8 + Proficiency + the higher of Dex and Str

-Debilitating Strike: When you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can expend an Exploit Die and force it to make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure,

the creature takes additional damage equal to your Exploit Die and its speed is reduced to 0 until the end of it's turn

-Disarming Strike: When you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you ca
