Feats

Spell Sniper (Level 4 increase)
- When you cast a spell that requires you to make an attack roll, the spell's range is doubled.
- Your ranged spell attacks ignore half cover and three-quarters cover.
- You learn a cantrip that requires an attack roll. Your spellcasting ability for this cantrip depends on the spell list you choose. (Chill Touch - Wizard list)
War Caster (Human Variant)
- You have advantage on Constitution saving throws to maintain concentration.
- You can perform the somatic components of spells even when you have weapons or a shield in both hands.
- When a hostile creature provokes an opporuntiy attack from you, you can use your reaction to cast a spell rather than an attack - casting time of 1 action and target only that creature.

- Path to the Grave - Creature within 30' cursed with vulnerability to all attack damage of the next attack, until earliest of damaged or the end of your next turn

Adept of Hades (special feature, adapted) - Ambitious Magic: You learn one 2nd level spell of your choice. The spell must be from the Enchantment or Necromancy school of magic. You can cast the spell without a spell slot, and must finish a long rest before you can cast it in this way again. You can also cast the spell using spell slots of the appropriate level. (Crown of Madness)
- Life Channel: You can channel your life force into the power of your magic. When a creature you can see within 60 feet of you fails a saving throw against a spell that deals damage that you cast, you can expend a number of Hit Dice equal to the level of the spell. Roll the expended Hit Dice and add them together. The damage that the creature takes increases by an amount equal to that total.

Character Backstory

Zotikos is the youngest son of Asclepius (and a grandson of Apollo), and was only a toddler when his older brothers went to fight at Troy. When he was eight years old his father, a famous and accomplished healer, upset the balance by restoring the dead to life and was killed by a lightning bolt sent from Zeus at Hades' request.

In an effort to restore the balance Asclepius had upset, his family sent Zotikos to the Nekromanteion at Epirus to serve Hades. He grew up there and became a cleric of the god.

Later, because Apollo protested his death, Asclepius was elevated to Olympos to become a god himself, something Zotikos finds something of an embarrassment.

In recent years he's been sent to travel with those with the makings of heroes. The balance can't be kept solely from inside a temple.
