Experimentation and close calls with traps made by others has taught you the valuable lesson of what makes protective measures so deadly. And how to craft them yourself. You gain the following benefits.

Ability Score Increase. Increase your Dexterity or your Intelligence score by 1, to a maximum of 20.

Traps. After finishing a Long Rest, you can spend one hour working with your chosen tools to create a special trap using materials harvested or found in the field.

These traps can be placed on the ground as an action and take up a 5-foot-by-5-foot square. A creature who Investigates the area must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom (Perception) or Intelligence (Investigation) check in order to see the trap. If a creature steps on the space where a trap is located that creature immediately triggers the trap.

You can make any of the traps listed below.

• Ensnaring Trap. The triggering creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, it is Restrained until it escapes by spending an action to make a Strength check against your trap save DC.
• Spiked Trap. The triggering creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 2d6 Piercing damage.
• Sonic Trap. The trap makes a sound audible out to 300 feet

Starting at level 10, you can make the following advanced traps.

• Exploding Trap. The triggering creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 4d6 Fire damage and is knocked Prone.
• Poison Trap. The triggering creature must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 3d8 Poison damage and becomes Poisoned until the end of its next turn.
• Gas Trap. The triggering creature must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is Incapacitated until the end of its next turn.

The saving throw DC for your traps equals 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Intelligence or Dexterity modifier (your choice).
