Traits

Dark One's Own Luck (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest).When the warlock makes an ability check or saving throw, it can add a d10 to the roll. It can do this after the roll is made but before any of the roll's effects occur.

Regeneration.Dirt-Under-Nails regains 10 hit points at the start of his turn if he is in contact with the ground. If Dirt-Under-Nails takes fire damage, this trait doesn't function at the start of his next turn. Dirt-Under-Nails dies only if he starts his turn with 0 hit points and doesn't regenerate.

Shared Senses.Dirt-Under-Nails can see and hear what any plant within 120 ft can see and hear. In addition, Dirt-Under- Nails can communicate telepathically with any plant within this range.

Special Equipment (+2 Rod of the Pact Keeper).While holding this +2 Rod of the Pact Keeper||rod, Dirt-Under-Nails gains a +2 bonus to spell attack rolls and to the saving throw DCs of his warlock spells (included in modifications, below). In addition, he can regain 1 warlock spell slot as an action while holding the rod. He can't use this property again until he finishes a long rest.

Tree Stride.Once on each of its turns, Dirt-Under-Nails can use 10 feet of his movement to step magically into one copse of mushrooms within 5 feet of him and emerge from a second copse of mushrooms within 60 feet of it, appearing in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the second copse.

Dirt-Under-Nails

A grotesque, tiny horror formed from the detritus of dark rituals, creeping into the unlikeliest of places. It whispers maddening secrets and spreads foul curses to those who fail to notice its presence.
