Twilight Hunter (5e Subclass)

Twilight Hunter

Ranger Subclass

Unlike most hunters, your hunt comes at the transition between light and dark, between day and night and between life and death. You hunt not for the thrill of the hunt, but to protect those lost in the dark, and to help those trapped within the darkness finally reach the light.

gollark: Oh, another bot has this.

gollark: HUh?

gollark: Basically:- someone configures a channel as the "phone channel"- people can then dial that, or you can dial to other ones in it- if the other end accepts, a call is set up and messages are relayed between each channel until you hang up

gollark: You can use the very cool™ and useful™ feature of my Discord bot where you can open temporary "calls" to channels on other (participating) servers.

gollark: They are both Lua, essentially, but with different versions and APIs.
