Soulbound Medium

The Soulbound are those who are have familiars in not only this world, but also in on of the many other worlds: The world of the Death. They are a clan of people who made contracts with the souls of the deceased to fight alongside them in battle. But not as a spiritual partner, if they call for help from the other world they become the physical embodiment of one of the numerous powerful ghosts. These allows them to remain unpredictable and effective. Their main strategy in battle is to battle as the physical embodiment of one of many powerful ghosts.

Those who choose to become one of the Soulbound will be granted with great powers, but also great responsibility for the other realm. They often fall into deep trance while drifting throw the Spirit World and while fused with a spirit to protect both worlds to one day also travel into the other dimension forever.

Creating a Soulbound Medium

As you are creating a Soulbound, keep in mind how your character relates to society and why. Why are you devoted to a cause of protecting the spirit realm? Why did you decide to make a deal with your patron? Was it for power, or does it serve some other purpose? Why would your character decide to group up with others? Is he just a lonely monk on a snowy mountain top or does he live in a big city to rescue lost spirits and send them to the spirit world, to keep the two worlds seperate? And as an old saying goes, the souls choose the Medium.

Ghost World's Familiar

Beginning 1st level, you have the ability to shift into the Spirit Realm and call for help of the ghosts. To summon a ghost successfully you have to spend a whole round (this includes your actions and reactions) in concentration or else it will fail. At the beginning of your next turn you transform into one of ten different ghosts. In which of the ten ghosts you transform is random

First Gate to the other Realm: Gate of Opening

At 1st level, your arcane research on the Spirit world has unlocked the first door into the forbidden realm. This unlocks the first feature of all of the ghosts. These abilities are listed for each ghost specifically at the bottom of the class.

Second Gate to the other Realm: Gate of Healing

At 3rd level, you gain a specific, for each ghost individually, amount of temporary hit points, when you transform or evolve into one of your familiars. You lose the same amount, when the transformation ends(this can't make you go below one hit point).

Preferred Weapons

Beginning at 2nd level, you have trained for years with two weapons of your choice that have become your preferred weapons. Choose a martial melee weapon and a martial ranged weapon. You have a +1 bonus to damage rolls with these weapons. The amount of bonus damage increases as you gain levels, as shown in the Bonus Weapon Damage column of the Demon Hunter table.

At 10th level, you may also choose another martial melee weapon and martial ranged weapon to also gain this benefit.

Hunter Order

Beginning at 3rd level, you choose a subclass that you emulate in the exercise of your hunter abilities: Deathblade, Power Fiend, or Arcane Devastator, all detailed at the end of the class description. Your subclass choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at levels 7th, 13th, and 18th.

Ability Score Increase

When you reach 4th level, and again at 6th, 8th, 12th, 16th and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of you choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

If the creature was living, until the start of your next turn, that creature can not be killed or knocked unconscious. If the target would take damage that knocks them unconscious, they instead remain conscious at 1 hit point. If the target was recently slain, you return that creature to life with 50 hit points and with 0 failed death saving throws. Once you use this feature, you may not use it again until you finish a long rest.
