Úlfherjari - Refugee in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Homebrew

Úlfherjari - Refugee

Some of the wolf warriors broke away from their kin and, fearing death at the hands of the deranged Aspect, fled alongside goblins and humans during the great migrations. It was a tragic time for the Úlfherjari, burdened by the lingering stigma from other races, fearing that these warriors might share the fate of their patron and pose a threat to civilization. Those who chose to escape and hide among the goblins kept their identity secret and began new lives in cities and villages, rarely revealing their true forms. A determined group of refugees clings together in small clusters, clandestinely taking over small districts of cities where they can establish their informal enclaves. However, some decided to form families with members of other races, revealing their true origins to them.

Sense of Threat. Your primal ancestry lets you recognize your kind and distinguish mortals from the ancient creatures. While you are in your lycan form, as a free action or when you make an insight check, you can roll another d20 to determine if there is a presence of uncommon beings within the 30 feet of you. When you do so, you have to make a DC (10 + target's level/Challenge Rating) check. If it fails, you gain no further information and the usage of this ability is wasted.
If you succeed you can choose from Úlfherjari, Celestial and Monstrosity creature type and if there is such a creature, you will know about it and it will get a disadvantage on the next Deception check against you. Then the usage of this ability is spent.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier divided by two and rounded up.
