Inspired by a typo in the Dragon mag, and based on one of the internets most hated memes, I present the Epic destiny-
Deadly Rickster
Prerequisite: 21st Level, Cha 21, trained in Stealth
A Deadly Rickster has the ability to appear out of nowhere, often inciting riots and rampages wherever one crops up. Most people have learnt to ignore many of those that appear, often pointing out to others that they should be avoided.
Masters of Stealth such as rogues and warlocks often become Deadly Ricksters.
Immortality?
Unfame: You used to be a great hero, though now hardly anyone remembers you. It is up to you to make people remember.
Deadly Rickster Features
All Deadly Ricksters have the following class features-
Never gonna give you up (21st level): If you are knocked to 0 hitpoints or fewer, any heal check made to stabilise you automatically succeeds.
Never gonna let you down (24th Level): If you have a surprise round against an opponent, you can teleport to any square (within 20), gain concealment until the end of your next turn, and make a basic melee or ranged attack. If you have the sneak attack, hunters quarry or warlocks curse class feature, you can add it to this attack as well as another attack during this round.
Never gonna run around, and desert you (30th level): You have become ingrained into a communities mind to the point where you can teleport from your current position to any place where people remember and recognise you. You can do this once per day.
Deadly Rickster Power
You wouldn't get this from any other guy_____ Deadly Rickster Utility 26
Daily
No Action | Personal
Trigger: An enemy scores a critical hit against you.
Effect: The attack misses you and hits an adjacent enemy, including the one that made the attack.
Note that this isn't serious, but I thought it would be a fun way to test out making an epic destiny. I need a bit more fluff though.
Thoughts?
Edit: Bah, realised this should be in homebrew... I'll PM a mod to move it.
Changelog: Added Cha requirement.
