Detective

Level 3

Chase Down Clues and Crack the Mystery

Prowling at the edge of darkness, Detectives chase down clues and pull on threads to unravel conspiracies that bring darkness into the world. Sometimes, this requires that you infiltrate a cult's secret meetings, other times it calls on you to reconstruct a person's last moments at a murder scene. No matter what the mystery, however, you know that there is always an explanation.

Uncanny Hunch

Whenever you make an Intelligence check or a Wisdom (Insight) check, you can gain a bonus to the check equal to your Investigator level.

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

Trinkets

You can use the following trinkets.

Fogstone Periapt

You can cast Misty Step without a spell slot or components.

Glass Medallion

As a Bonus Action, you can cast Invisibility on yourself without a spell slot or components.

Skeleton's Key

As a Bonus Action, you can cast Knock without a spell slot or components. When you cast the spell using this trinket, its casting is silent.

As a Bonus Action, you can examine the movements of a creature you can see within 30 feet of yourself. Until the start of your next turn, you can add 1d6 to attack rolls you make against the target, and the target subtracts 1d6 from all its attack rolls against you. Once you use this Bonus Action on a target, you can't use it on that target again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.

Your sleuthing experience grants you the following benefits.

Enchantment Detection

You can discern if a creature is cursed, possessed, or has the Charmed or Frightened conditions.

Illusion Detection

You have Advantage on any ability check you make to discern an illusion.

Lie Detection

You have Advantage on any ability check you make to determine if you hear a deliberate lie.

You can use your ValdaSpire24 on a target an unlimited number of times.
