[[#Detection or Tracking Abilities]] | | # Destiny [Chaos](https://a5e.tabletopbytheik.nl/compendium/destinies/chaos) #### Motivation **Exploit:** Life is a game and you plan on cheating. #### Gain Inspiration - Chaos _Successfully lie to or humiliate an authority figure, commit a punishable crime, indulge in base pleasures to ill-advised extremes._ You sow disorder, play tricks, and subvert tradition. You gain inspiration whenever you successfully subvert law and order, so long as it benefits your allies or moves the story forward. #### Spend Inspiration - Ingenious Doubletalk Undaunted by momentary setbacks, you twist conversations in any direction with an inspired turn of phrase and confusing doubletalk that plays off bold lies and impertinent proposals as jokes, obfuscates or redirects accidentally slipped information, or quells outrage with diffusing flattery. Whenever you or a friendly creature you can hear fails a Deception or a Persuasion check, you can use your reaction to spend your inspiration and undo any consequences of that failed check. #### Fulfilling Your Destiny You fulfill your destiny of Chaos when you overturn a world or cosmic order. _Greatly destabilize a nation or extremely large organization, subvert or trick a deity-level entity, upset the status quo for a vast number of people._ **_Fulfillment Feature: Agent of Chaos._** The whims of chaos flow through you and everything you do. Whenever you roll one or more dice to determine the damage of an attack or spell or the random effects of a spell or feature, you may choose to reroll those dice; if you do you must use the new rolls. In addition, you gain the Chaotic alignment and emit a strong chaotic aura for the purposes of any feature, spell, or trait that detects or affects Chaotic creatures. # Social ***Note:** Also check [[#Settlement Abilities]], as there is some crossover.* | Bonus | Notes | Source | | -------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | [[Deception]] | - Gain proficiency - Expertise die can go up to **d10** | - [[01-A5E/3 Classes/Rogue/Archetype - Cutthroat#Bonus Expertise (3rd level)\|Bonus Expertise]] | | [[Deception]] | - Expertise (d10) | - [[01-A5E/3 Classes/Rogue/Archetype - Cutthroat#Bonus Expertise (3rd level)\|Bonus Expertise]] - [[01-A5E/3 Classes/Rogue/Rogue#Cipher\|Cipher]] - [[01-A5E/3 Classes/Rogue/Rogue#Tricky Interrogation\|Tricky Interrogation]] - [[01-A5E/3 Classes/Rogue/Rogue#Walk it Back\|Walk It Back]] | | [[Deception]] | **When an ally fails:** *use your reaction* to add a supporting detail.

Kind of a catch-all category for everything else. It could be something you encounter during cross-country travel, other activities you might do in a dungeon besides fight or rest, or non-social encounters in a city or town. Some examples include getting pick-pocketed in a city, earthquakes, extreme weather, an obstacle of some kind, detecting hidden doors or traps, puzzles/riddles/ciphers, etc. ## Travel Abilities *To see enhancements to your movement during turn-based action (like combat), see [[#Your Special Movement Abilities]].* These abilities are usable during cross-country (or cross-water) travel. They include any abilities you have associated with your Travel Pace, activities you can perform while traveling, rest, supply, etc. | Check or Skill | Benefit | Source | | ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Encumbrance | You count as [one size larger](https://a5e.tools/rules/lifting-and-carrying) when determining your **carrying capacity**. | [Pack Rat](https://a5e.tabletopbytheik.nl/compendium/features/pack_rat_forsaken) | | Encumbrance | Can carry 2 extra [bulky items](https://a5e.tools/rules/bulky-items) | [[00-Balance Of Powers/3-Mechanics/3-Classes/Rogue/Knacks (Skill Tricks)/Loot Runner\|Loot Runner]] | | Long Rest | Only meditate (trance) for 4 hours per night, no penalty to passive Perception during trance. | [Trance](https://a5e.tabletopbytheik.nl/compendium/features/trance_elf) | | Short or Long Rest | Once **between rests** you can use a bonus action to roll a d20 and record the result.
