Gravewalker Ranger

"An esoteric order of rangers dedicated to not just protecting the living from the dead, but the dead from the living. This macabre order studies and learns all they can about the necromantic arts to better understand those who would use them to upset the balance between life and death so that they can destroy them. 

While many find them peculiar and maybe a bit sinister, these rangers typically want nothing more than to protect the sanctity of life and death and will do all they can to preserve life in the natural world. "

3. Wrathful Smite

5. Wither and Bloom

9. Life Transference

13. Deathward

17. Raise Dead

Level 3: Reap the Harvest - When a creature under the effects of your Hunter’s Mark spell is reduced to 0 hit points, you may use a Bonus Action to end the spell and regain hit points equal to your Ranger level + Wisdom modifier, by siphoning the last of that creature’s life force. A creature killed in this way cannot be raised as Undead. 

Level 3: Voices of the Dead - You may cast the spell Speak With Dead twice without expending a spell slot and without the need for Material components. You regain all uses of this ability after completing a long rest. 

Level 7: Strength of the Spirits - You gain Resistance to Necrotic damage. Additionally, you have Advantage on saving throws against any spells or spell-like abilities of a creature under the effects of your Hunter’s Mark spell. 

Level 11: Anointed Arrows - You have learned to anoint your arrows and empower them with energies that protect from spirits and other undead creatures. These arrows can harm ethereal and incorporeal creatures.When making an attack, you can choose to fire these arrows at an undead creature or shoot to embed the arrow in a surface (a tree, the ground, etc…) causing a different effect depending on your choice.
 
 Undead Creature - When you hit the creature with an attack, it takes an additional 1d8 Radiant damage and must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Spell Save DC. On a failure, the creature has the Incapacitated condition and its speed is reduced to 0 for as long as it remains Incapacitated. The effect lasts for 1 minute or until the creature takes any damage.

Surface - When you shoot an arrow into a surface, it creates a 10ft. Emanation centered on the arrow, which emits a bright silver light. Undead, ethereal or incorporeal beings, and spells from the Necromancy school of magic cannot pass through this emanation, treating it as if it were a solid barrier. If an undead creature is within the emanation when it is created, it is immediately pushed outward to the nearest space. This emanation lasts for 1 minute or until the arrow is destroyed. 

You have a number of these arrows equal to your Wisdom modifier and regain all arrows on a Long Rest. 

Level 15: Spectral Steps - When you activate your Nature’s Veil ability, you can choose to gain the effects of the Etherealness spell in addition to the Invisible condition. While under the effects of the Etherealness spell you may still pass through the emanations created by your Anointed Arrows class feature.
