Gloom Stalker

From Avardon

Gloom Stalker is a Ranger sub-class available on Avardon.

Gloom stalkers are at home in the darkest places: deep under the earth, in gloomy alleyways, in primeval forests, and wherever else the light dims. Most folk enter such places with trepidation, but a gloom stalker ventures boldly into the darkness, seeking to ambush threats before they can reach the broader world. Such rangers are often found in the Underdark, but they will go any place where evil lurks in the shadows.

  • You may have entered Avardon to hunt down dark forces that dwell there.
  • When in combat you may want to wear down a high priority target quickly. Staying at range and peppering them with arrows. Your dread ambusher gives you high tempo on your first turn.
