Lunar Predator's Claw Tattoo
Wondrous item (tattoo), rare (requires attunement by a Bloodhunter of the Order of the Lycan)

Produced by a special needle, this tattoo once was called as Eldritch Claw Tattoo. After a special regard becomes a demand for "Vague Trader" -a drow thy liveth in Saphentitte-, this magic tattoo transformed to depicts clawlike forms and to other jagged shapes.

Tattoo Attunement. To attune to this item, you hold the needle to your skin where you want the tattoo to appear, pressing the needle there throughout the attunement process. When the attunement is complete, the needle turns into the ink that becomes the tattoo, which appears on the skin.

Magical Strikes. While the tattoo is on your skin, your unarmed strikes are considered magical for the purpose of overcoming immunity and resistance to nonmagical attacks, and you gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls with unarmed strikes.

Lunar Predator's Maul. As a bonus action, you can empower the tattoo for 1 minute. For the duration, each of your melee attacks with a weapon or an unarmed strike can reach a target up to 15 feet away from you, as inky tendrils launch toward the target. In addition, on a hit, your melee attacks deal an extra force damage equal to your hemocraft die depending on your level. Once this feature is used, this bonus action can't be used again until the next dawn.

Enhanced Claws. The damage of your Crimson Rite-infused claw attacks, starts to shreds the skin and sunder the veins and starts victim to bleed up until thy remains bone and dust. This bleed effect, inflicts an extra necrotic damage equal to your hemocraft die depending on your level to its victim at the start of the victims turn. At the victims turn, the victim rolls a Constitution Saving Throw equal to your hemocraft DC to end its effect.

Bloodhunter's Vigor. As an action, you can expend hit points equal to two times of your Bloodhunter level to regain one use of your Lunar Predator's Maul feature. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
