Draw on Shadow Magic to Fight Your Foes

Gloom Stalkers are at home in the darkest places, wielding magic drawn from the Shadowfell to combat enemies that lurk in darkness.

Dread Ambusher

You have mastered the art of creating fearsome ambushes, granting you the following benefits.

Ambusher's Leap

At the start of your first turn of each combat, your Speed increases by 10 feet until the end of that turn.

Dreadful Strike

When you attack a creature and hit it with a weapon, you can deal an extra 2d6 Psychic damage. You can use this benefit only once per turn, you can use it a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Initiative Bonus

When you roll Initiative, you can add your Wisdom modifier to the roll.

Gloom Stalker Spells

When you reach a Ranger level specified in the Gloom Stalker Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.
