The world of Elden Ring, a hauntingly beautiful yet desolate land of gold that is scarred from war.


Author's Note: Still have a ton of work to do -Still trying to figure out how to work casting into classes. -Slowly adding items, monsters, and NPCs -All 307 base game weapons and 171 base game spells added. added, they will still require balancing but waiting for the combat overhaul before I dig too deeply into that. See the following document for homebrew rules specific to this world. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t7MkfUj7CvzkERJoJGxCYYEd5H6lBEml9pYQl9rHUUY/edit?usp=drivesdk

Description

The Skeletal Bandit is the grim remnant of a once-living thief, animated by dark forces that seek to sow chaos in the realm. These skeletal figures wear tattered leather armor, gnawed away by time and neglect, but still clutches some rusted weaponry with a chilling tenacity. They roam aimlessly under the cover of night, drawn by the scent of unwary travelers, relentlessly pursuing them until they meet their end or can be properly laid to rest.

As a reaction when reduced to 0 hit points, the Skeletal Bandit lets out a haunting rattle. All creatures within 10 feet must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the end of their next turn.

Short Sword Attack

The Skeletal Bandit makes a melee attack with a rusty short sword, dealing 1d6 + 2 piercing damage.

Sneak Attack

If the Skeletal Bandit has advantage on the attack roll or an ally is within 5 feet of the target, it deals an extra 2d6 damage on a hit.
