githyanki corsair shipmaster

In the process of converting Scales of War.  I’ll be starting my campaign from Garaitha’s Anvil – the 12th adventure in the series – skipping most of the build-up adventures as I have characters who are coming of Tomb of Annihilation and are level 14. 

Ω Edit: Decision by my group to do a gothic horror campaign so will not be using these creatures… yet (I’m sure I’ll find a use for these guys).  Other conversions will be incoming pending the kickoff of my Bloodborne/Steam Punk inspired campaign later this year.

Sneak Attack. Once per turn, the githyanki corsair shipmaster deals an extra 14 (4d6) damage when he hits a target with a weapon attack and has advantage on the attack roll, or when the target is within 5 feet of an ally of the githyanki corsair shipmaster that isn’t incapacitated and the githyanki corsair shipmaster doesn’t have disadvantage on the attack roll.

Suave Defense. While the githyanki corsair shipmaster is wearing light or no armor and wielding no shield, its AC includes its Charisma modifier.
