Both styles are handy for dungeon delving and for battles in the confined environments ofthe Underdark.  \nThe Deep Stalker is a new ranger archetype, scouting out Underdark threats using a combination of cunning and magic. Deep Stalkers use magic and other tricks to infiltrate Underdark settlements and spy on their inhabitants. After gathering intelligence on growing threats to the surface world, they engage in hit-­‐‑and-­‐‑run battles to eliminate those threats.  \nThe shadow sorcerer is a creepy spellcaster who commands the power of darkness. Though not always native to the Underdark, these sorcerers are often drawn to the dismal gloom of the world below.  \nFinally, the Undying Light is a new warlock patron. By forging a compact with the energy of the Positive Plane, a warlock vows to bring light into the darkest reaches of the world.  \nFighting Style   \nThe Underdark offers a distinct combat environment that fighters, paladins, and rangers can learn to use to their advantage. The following new options for the Fighting Style feature are available to those three classes.  \nClose Quarters Shooter  \nYou are trained in making ranged attacks at close quarters. When making a ranged attack while you are within 5 feet of a hostile creature, you do not have disadvantage on the attack roll. Your ranged attacks ignore half cover and three-­‐‑quarters cover against targets within 30 feet of you. Finally, you have a +1 bonus to attack rolls on ranged attacks.  \nTunnel Fighter  \nYou excel at defending narrow passages, doorways, and other tight spaces. As a bonus action, you can enter a defensive stance that lasts until the start of your next turn. While in your defensive stance, you can make opportunity attacks without using your reaction, and you can use your reaction to make a melee attack against a creature that moves more than 5 feet while within your reach.  \nRanger Archetype: Deep Stalker  \nAdventurers descending into the depths on desperate quests or in response to the promise of vast riches quickly come face to face with the evil that festers beneath the earth. Though many such characters are only too happy to escape back to the surface world again, rangers with the Deep Stalker archetype welcome each foray into the world below, striving to uncover and defeat the threats ofthe Underdark before those threats can reach the surface.  \nMany Deep Stalkers are elves, as those folk know all too well the threat posed by the drow. Deep Stalkers scout for new passages into the Underdark, carefully mapping them and working to ensure they remain watched at all times. They venture into the depths on long, dangerous patrols, disappearing for months at a time. Many of them never return.  \nDeep Stalkers master spells useful in navigating the Underdark, and their combat tactics focus on ambush, surprise, and stealth. They fight alone orin small groups in hostile territory, relying on clever tactics to carry the day.  \nUnderdark Scout  \nAt 3rd level, you master the art of the ambush. On your first turn during combat, you gain a +10 bonus to your speed. If you use the attack action on that turn, you can make one additional attack.  \n©2015 Wizards of the Coast LLC 1  \nYou gain an additional benefit on all turns after your first turn. At the end of each such turn, you can attempt to hide as a bonus action if you meet the normal requirements for hiding. Deep Stalkers often use this ability to make ranged attacks, move beyond the scope of their foes’ darkvision, and then hide.  \nDeep Stalker Magic  \nFrom 3rd level, you have darkvision with a range of 90 feet. You also gain access to additional spells at 3rd, 5th, 9th, 13","cbCaiq8B47wTEKTn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiq8B47wTEKTn","pdf",77518,"English","# Fighting Style\n## Close Quarters Shooter\n## Tunnel Fighter\n# Ranger Archetype: Deep Stalker\n## Underdark Scout\n## Deep Stalker Magic\n## Deep Stalker Spells\n## Iron Mind\n## Stalker’s Flurry\n## Stalker’s Dodge\n# Sorcerous Origin: Shadow\n## Shadow Sorcerer Quirks\n## Eyes of the Dark","[{\"question\":\"What do the two new Fighting Style options focus on in an Underdark campaign?\",\"answer\":\"They focus on close-quarters combat advantages for fighters, paladins, and rangers, improving ranged attack behavior near enemies and enabling strong defense in narrow spaces with special action and reaction options.\"},{\"question\":\"What makes the Deep Stalker ranger archetype different from other rangers?\",\"answer\":\"Deep Stalkers specialize in scouting and infiltration, using stealth and ambush tactics, gaining features that enhance speed at the start of combat and support repeated hiding while fighting from the shadows.\"},{\"question\":\"What abilities and customization options are provided for the Shadow Sorcerer?\",\"answer\":\"The Shadow Sorcerer’s magic comes from the Shadowfell, with dark-themed effects and a table of quirks (e.g., altered appearance, breathing behavior, unusual physiological traits) used to create a unique character identity.\"}]","Unearthed Arcana: Light, Dark, Underdark - New Underdark Character Options | PDF",1791263402]
