Features:
Precision Strike: You've gained skills in exploiting the weaknesses of others
Once per turn when you have Advantage on an Attack and that attack hits you gain additional damage equal to the Precision Strike Damage listed in the column above, based on your Rogue level. However, if you have an Ally within Melee Range of your target you can utilize this Precision Strike without the need of Advantage on the Attack Roll
Thieves' Cant:
You learn the secret language of Rogues, a combination of clicking, body language, and whistling that can provide information to allies exceedingly quickly and discreetly.
Cunning Action:
Your quick skills allow you to perform quick maneuvers. Using your Bonus Action you can Setup, Dash, Disengage, or Hide instead of using an Action.
Setup - This Cunning Action can be used if you have not moved yet this turn and you have a Weapon that you are Proficient with ready. When you use this Cunning Action you grant yourself on an Attack Roll you make this turn but your Movement Speed is reduced to 0 until the start of your next turn
Roguish Skills:
You have focused on some Skills with exceptional devotion. Choose two Skills from the Rogue List above and you gain Expertise in them. Optionally you may forgo one of these to choose your Proficiency with Thieves’ Tools instead. At 4th, 7th, and 10th Level you can select an additional Skill to gain Expertise with as part of this ability. You can apply these extra Expertise selections to any Proficiency you have gained, such as Background, Race, or via Multiclassing unlike the first 2 ones you select
Ability Score Improvement: When you reach a Level with this Feature you can increase any Ability Score by +2 or two separate Ability Scores by +1 each

Evasion:
You can quickly get out of the way of big issues, traps, or explosions included. When you make a Reflex Save if you Succeed you take no Damage and if you fail you only take half the rolled Damage, using your Reaction to apply this ability
Slippery Mind:
You have hardened your focus and you gain Proficiency with Will Saves
Reliable Talent:
You have perfected the skills to the point where you almost never miss, any time you make an Ability Check with a Skill that you’re Proficient with and Roll a 9 or lower you treat it like you Rolled a 10
Subclass: This is the point where every Rogue chooses a different ability to specialize in. Some decide that they need to pick up the arcane arts while others determine it’s their skills outside of combat that they need to improve, and some decide to forgo stealth and become a charismatic point of attention
Arcane Trickster:
Arcane Trickster Feature: Spellcasting
Magic Known
You can choose 2 cantrips and 2 1st Level Spells from the Wizard’s Spell List though your Magic is limited to Spells from the schools of Illusion and Enchantment; Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your spells, since the power of your magic comes from your ability to memorize complex sets of magical runes. You utilize your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your Spellcasting Ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the Save DC for an Arcane Trickster spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier
Additionally, you can select another Spell that you have a Spell Slot for (and within the Illusion or Enchantment Schools) every time you gain another Level in this Class, and when you do so you can also replace any Spell you already know with another one that you meet the prerequisites for. However, when you reach 4th and 8th Levels in this Class you can select a Spell from any School of Magic from the Wizard Spell List instead, the total list of Spell Slots listed below
Arcane Trickster Feature: Rogue Hand
When casting Mage Hand you can turn it invisible, can stow one object the hand is holding in a container worn or carried by another creature, can retrieve an object in a container worn or carried by another creature, and can use thieves' tools to pick locks and disarm traps at range if you give the Cantrip your Tools before moving them. You can control the hand on your turn with a Bonus Action and can use a Sleight of Hand Check to do more complicated tasks, such as picking a lock
Arcane Trickster Improvement: Manipulate the Weave
Whenever you finish a Long Rest you can select any 2nd Level Wizard Spell, you can cast this Spell once per Short Rest without expending a Spell Slot. This Spell does not have to be of the Illusion or Enchantment schools unlike your other Spells. Every time you finish a Long Rest you can change out this Spell, and when you gain 3rd Level Spells at 9th Level you can choose from the 3rd Level Spells instead
Arcane Trickster Advancement: Magical Ambush
When you target a Creature that is unaware of your presence with a Spell that requires a Save, they have Disadvantage on it.
When your Mage Hand is next to the enemy you’re fighting you can treat it as an ally for the sake of utilizing your Precision Strike Feature

Assassin:
Assassin Feature: Assassinate
If you make an Attack with your Action the first turn after Rolling Initiative and can utilize Precision Strike with it then treat it as a Critical Hit regardless of the die roll, on a hit. To do so, the target must not have taken an Action yet this combat. At 7th Level when you use this Feature you can add another of your Weapon’s Damage Die to the total

Assassin Improvement: Expert Prepper
You gain Expertise with Deception Checks

Assassin Improvement: Clean Entrance
You become exceptional at getting close to your targets. You can spend 1 Day and 25GP collecting documents, disguises, and planning in order to create a fake identity for yourself. Doing so allows you to pass as your fake identity easily until you do something that would cause obvious suspicion. However, you cannot create a fake identity using a real person's identity without extra steps, should you have someone in mind speak to your GM about the chances of this succeeding. Additionally, if you target a person and spend at least an hour watching them closely you can perfectly mimic their speech, movement patterns, mannerisms, and writing. Doing so allows you to pass as this person for a short amount of time, longer if you are without scrutiny.
Assassin Improvement: Mark and Kill

You lose this bonus when you use this feature to select a different proficiency
Ghastly Feature: Damned Wailing
Immediately after you use your Precision Strike you can select a different Creature that you can see within 10m of the first creature. It takes Necrotic Damage equal to half the amount of Precision Strike Damage you did as wails of the dead sound around them for a moment. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, regaining all uses on completion of a Long Rest
Ghastly Improvement: Tokens from Beyond
When a life ends within 30m you can use your Reaction to snatch a token from the departing soul, a sliver of its life essence that takes physical form: opening your free hand and causing a Tiny trinket to appear there, a soul trinket. The GM determines the trinket's form or has you roll on the Trinkets table in the Player's Handbook to generate it. You can have a maximum number of soul trinkets equal to your Proficiency Bonus, and you can't create one while at your maximum. You can use these soul trinkets in the following ways by expending them, which is a Free Action and only requires the trigger to activate:
If you fail a Death Save you can make it a Success instead, if you have 3 Soul Trinkets you can make it a Critical Success
You can grant yourself +2 to any Fortitude, Reflex, or Will Save; you must make the decision to expend it before Rolling

Infiltrator Feature: Tricks of the Trade - You have an adaptable skillset to get into any kind of place, after completing a Long Rest you can choose which of the following Trades you’d like to practice:
Acrobat - If you do not have a Weapon drawn you have Advantage on all Acrobatics checks and do not gain Disadvantage on Stealth Checks while performing acrobatic maneuvers

Then, every time you complete a Long Rest you can select a new Infiltration type and subtype to gain access to, giving up your earlier ones in exchange, while every time you complete a Short Rest you can only change the subtype. Each of these abilities can be used once per Short Rest
Doppelganger - You have honed your skills of shadow to the point that even the Fae has begun (unwittingly) transferring its power to you. As a Bonus Action you can touch a Small or Medium Humanoid and immediately take on their physical appearance and voice, for up to 1 hour or until you end this effect with another Bonus Action.
While using this feature all of your statistics remain the same. This gives you Advantage on Persuasion and Deception Checks against characters that trust the character whose appearance you have taken, and advantage on Intimidation checks made against characters that are afraid of the character whose appearance you have taken. This feature may be ended at will.
Copycat - Whenever you hit a Creature with a Melee Attack you can utilize this ability to gain Insight into a creature that you’re fighting. They have Disadvantage on all Attacks against you on their next turn and you have Advantage on all Attacks against them on your next turn.
Plain Appearance - You can use your Bonus Action to give yourself a new, illusory appearance, including all your items. You can make yourself seem up to 50 cm shorter or taller and appear thin, fat, or in between. You can’t change your body type, so you must choose a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs. Otherwise, the extent of the illusion is up to you. The spell lasts for up to 1 Hour, unless you use your Action to dismiss it sooner. The Investigation Check required to detect this effect is a DC = 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Dexterity Modifier).
The changes wrought by this fail to hold up to physical inspection. For example, if you use this spell to add a hat to a creature’s outfit, objects pass through the hat, and anyone who touches it would feel nothing or would feel the creature’s head and hair. If you use this spell to appear thinner than you are, the hand of someone who reaches out to touch you would bump into you while it was seemingly still in midair.
True Copy - When you select this ability you do not gain any active ability. Instead, when you would drop to 0HP you can instead produce a brief simulacrum of yourself and that takes the Damage instead. If it was an area of effect that would cause this you take half the Damage that would’ve dropped you to 0HP instead.
Ghost - As an expert in infiltration a requirement of this is to be able to move silently, following the shadows at the beck and call of your instincts. Without your knowledge however, these instincts have been bolstered by a slowly increasing bond to the Shadowfell. As an Action you can turn yourself Invisible for up to a minute. This ends prematurely if you choose to end the effect (as a Free Action) or if you take the Attack or Cast a Spell Actions.
Blur - When you are hit by an Attack you can utilize this ability to increase your AC by 5. Whenever you have this subtype your AC also increases by 1 passively.
Fade Step - When you use your Cunning Action to Hide you can move half your Movement Speed as a part of that Action. The Stealth Check you make covers your Movement as a part of this ability. You can utilize this subtype to cast the Misty Step Spell once per Short Rest. When you do so this Spell doesn’t require any components.
Vigilant - You cannot be Surprised while you’ve chosen this subtype. This ability also allows you to add 2d6 to any Initiative Rolls you make. In addition, this ability can be used an unlimited number of times.
Manipulator - You have garnered some wisps of arcane magic in your time as an Infiltrator, and in doing so have learned how to subtly manipulate others with your presence. This type of infiltration is often the most prone to failure and the most prone to success. You can use your Action to target a non-hostile Creature you can see within 10m, they must make a Will Save (DC = 8 + your Charisma Modifier + your Proficiency) and on a Failure they can gain the Charmed or Frightened Conditions (your choice).
Befuddle - Any time you make a Deception Check against an enemy’s Insight Check you can utilize this ability to reduce their roll by 1d6 using your Reaction
Confusing Wink - When enemies are within Melee you can utilize this ability to cause them to lose focus when fighting you. As a Free Action you can utilize this ability to Disengage, and until the end of your turn you do not provoke attacks of Opportunity as if you’ve Disengaged from any enemy that you pass
Dominate - You target a Creature that you can touch and must make an Attack Roll against them (using your Proficiency Bonus and Dexterity), on a hit you can force them to make a Will Save with the same DC as your Manipulator Feature. On a Failure they are Dominated by you for up to 1 minute, you give them instructions and they perform it or you can use your Action to take direct controller
Saboteur - When others make more direct moves after achieving their infiltration you have instead focused on the physical and untraceable aspects of getting things done. You prefer to deal with enemies while you’re not anywhere close enough for them to seek out retribution. As a part of this Infiltrator type you have Advantage on checks made to disable traps, to lock and unlock mechanisms, or on Saves made against traps. In addition, if you must make any Save and Fail you can utilize this ability to Succeed instead. Finally, any traps you build or place deal an additional Damage Die of Damage and have an increase Save DC by +1.
Explosive Escape - If you are hit by an Attack and utilize your Uncanny Dodge ability you can use this ability as a part of that. You deal 2d10 Force Damage to all Creatures within Melee of you and you teleport 5m in any direction to an unoccupied space within range.
Iron Mind - You cannot be Charmed or Frightened whenever you have this ability
Target Acquisition - You can spend a Bonus Action to perfectly analyze your surroundings.
