Action

  • Whirlwind Attack

    When As an action.

    Spectre makes one melee attack against every creature within 5 feet, with a separate attack roll for each target.

  • Fluid Focus

    When On his turn.

    Spectre enters Fluid Focus, gaining automatic defensive movement, heightened senses, doubled speed, triple jumps, four extra attacks, and four Flurry of Blows attacks. The state consumes ki each round and risks exhaustion and necrotic damage when ki is depleted.

  • Stillness of MindLevel 7

    Spectre can use an action to end one effect on himself causing him to be charmed or frightened. He can also spend 2 ki to end one effect reducing his ability scores or preventing him from taking actions.

  • Tongue of the Sun and MoonLevel 13

    Spectre can understand all spoken languages and can make himself understood by any creature that understands a language. He can also use an action to make his unarmed strikes deal force damage for 1 minute.

  • Spectral Attack, Manyfold AssaultLevel 11

    Spectre gains one additional attack when he takes the Attack action and one additional strike when he uses Flurry of Blows. He can use an action to make one melee attack against any number of creatures within 5 feet of him, with a separate attack roll for each target.

  • Spectral Attack, Fluid FocusLevel 17

    Spectre can use an action to enter a state of automatic focus. While active, Deflect Missiles requires no action, Dexterity-based attacks have advantage, melee attacks against him have disadvantage, and he gains the Alert feat. He has advantage on Dexterity saving throws and checks, his movement speed is doubled, and his jump distance is tripled. His extra attacks become four, and Flurry of Blows grants four attacks. None of these benefits require ki. He regains all ki when entering the state, loses 1 ki at the end of each round, and must make a Constitution saving throw if he has 0 ki at the end of a round. On a failure, the state ends, he gains 4 points of exhaustion, and takes 10d10 necrotic damage. When hit, he rolls a d20 and compares it to the attack roll without modifiers. If his result is equal to or higher, the attack misses regardless of its final total.

Bonus action

    When On his turn.

    Spectre takes the Dash or Disengage action as a bonus action. He can spend 1 ki to double his movement speed and triple his jump distance.

  • Ki and Step of the WindLevel 2

    Spectre can use a bonus action to spend 1 ki point to take a Dash or Disengage action, and his jump distance is doubled. Under Ki Amplification, Step of the Wind is available without ki, and spending 1 ki doubles his movement speed and triples his jump distance.

Appearance

Spectre stands six feet two inches tall, with a devilishly handsome face, a day's worth of dark stubble, neatly trimmed short brown hair, and sharp, perceptive eyes. His lean, athletic build reflects a life of constant movement and combat. He wears obsidian black sleeveless studded leather armor, matching boots, and a heavy hooded black wool cloak trimmed with black and brown fur, fastened at the throat by a silver clasp. His movements are unnervingly precise, as if every gesture has already been rehearsed by fate itself.

Mannerisms

Spectre speaks with polished, understated aristocratic diction, often pausing just long enough to make others lean toward him. He adjusts his silver clasp before combat, studies exits whenever he enters a room, and rarely turns his head when his eyes can do the work. When irritated, he becomes more courteous rather than less.

Personality

Spectre is effortlessly charming, observant, and composed. He makes people feel noticed and valued, often remembering small details they assumed he had overlooked. Beneath that warmth is a deep reserve, a quiet distance shaped by too many deaths and too many realities. His confidence borders on arrogance, but his control is so complete that it rarely becomes vulgar. He prefers elegant solutions, measured words, and victories that leave opponents uncertain whether they were defeated or simply permitted to lose.

Ideals

Discipline. Freedom without control is merely chaos, and power without restraint is merely another form of weakness. Every action must serve a greater balance.

Bonds

The nameless monk who trained him disappeared after Spectre's first death. He will cross any boundary, mortal or planar, to discover whether his teacher is dead, transformed, or waiting beyond the next veil.

Flaws

Spectre is so accustomed to surviving every consequence that he underestimates danger and treats mortality as an inconvenience. He keeps too many secrets, assumes nearly everyone has an angle, and can become coldly manipulative when a direct solution would require trust. His certainty that he will eventually return from death sometimes borders on arrogance.

Quirks

He counts doorways, windows, and possible exits without appearing to look.
He sometimes answers a question a heartbeat before it is spoken.
He keeps a personal record of every death he remembers, though several entries contradict one another.
He addresses dangerous enemies as though they are honored guests.
His shadow occasionally seems to move a fraction of a second after he does.

Background

Spectre remembers the city before it had a proper name. He was raised among abandoned tenements, market awnings, and rain-slick alleys, surviving by nimble fingers, quick judgment, and an instinct for when to disappear. The thieves who taught him their craft expected him to become another street ghost, but Spectre discovered that the body could be trained like a lock, and the mind could become the key. He exchanged stolen purses for stolen moments of instruction, learning from retired assassins, wandering ascetics, and a silent old monk who claimed that pain was merely reality asking a question. His training eventually carried him beyond the mortal world. Spectre insists that death has taken him many times, but never managed to keep him. Each return left him with fragments of impossible memory, glimpses of alternate skies, distant realms, and echoes of himself moving through places he had never visited. He learned to shape those echoes into attacks and to bend distance through disciplined motion. Whether he is truly immortal or merely very difficult to kill remains uncertain. What is certain is that Spectre now walks the world as a precise instrument of balance, charming when useful, detached when necessary, and quietly searching for the unseen force that first taught him how to return from death.
