Gates to other worlds have appeared all over earth, it's your job to stop them. Go be a hero!


Author's Note: The world you are familiar with ended seventeen years ago with "The Opening." It was a time when dimensional portals, known as Dungeon Gates, erupted across the globe. Despite humanities efforts, we couldn't cross through the portals no matter how hard we tried, but the monsters on the other end could. The longer a portal stays open, the closer it gets to destabilizing and turning into a Dungeon Break, where it releases it's horde of monsters into Earth. What began with weaker creatures has escalated into a constant struggle against increasingly dangerous foes. Normal weapons could only go so far and humanity feared it's breaking point. Amidst the chaos and despair, a new phenomenon emerged, as people exposed to the gates' energy started to develop superhuman abilities. These people became know as Breakers, humanity's frontline defense, tasked with the grim duty of quarantining unstable gates, waiting for the inevitable Dungeon Breaks to occur. World Gates, a rare anomaly among Dungeon Gates, started to appear across the globe. These Gates offered free passage between the worlds. Earth found itself connected to nine different worlds, each filled with countless dangers, but humanity needs answers. Will you be a Breaker? Tasked with clearing Dungeon Gates on Earth? Or perhaps you are a human who is Cybernetically Augmented to meet the threat posed by these invaders? Or maybe, just maybe, you're a daring adventurer who wants to see what lies beyond the World Gates? Welcome to Dungeon Break. Note: Remember that Franz still has limitations, so if the lore does not always track the way that it's presented here, just roll with it or OOC him to get him back on track. I tried my best to inject what I could into Franz to get him to stay in line, but as a player you have to do your part as well on occasion. I am also trying to use less CIs so the players can have room to add what they want to the game to suit their playstyle. If you like the game, please give it a heart!

Actions

Ethereal Assault (Recharge 4-6)

The Ethereal Hunter shifts to the Ethereal Plane, moves up to its flying speed, and then reappears in an unoccupied space it can see within 30 feet of one creature it moved through on the Ethereal Plane. That creature must make a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw or take 31 (7d8) force damage and be knocked prone.

Multiattack

The Ethereal Hunter makes three Spectral Claw attacks.

Spectral Claw

Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 18 (3d8 + 5) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) necrotic damage. If the hunter was on the Ethereal Plane when it moved into the target's space, the target has disadvantage on the saving throw against any effect the attack causes.
