This was created by combining the 3.5e Bloodclaw Master and the 4e Tiger Claw Master.
“My blades thirst for blood.”
—Rhaskana, Bloodclaw Secretkeeper
A bloodclaw master embraces the animal within to a degree that it becomes external, partially transforming him into the beast from which the discipline was inspired. He employs small, light weapons almost like claws.
Mastering bloodclaw rites builds your strength and hardiness, and your strikes shred enemies. You spring at your foes with astounding speed. With true mastery, you take on the characteristics of the celestial tiger. Course orange and white fur covers your body. Your hands become clawed paws and a tiger's visage replaces your features. With great green orbs for eyes and a mouth filled with sharp teeth, you embody the bloodclaw style.
Prestige Paths are a way to add another layer of flavor onto a character without using class levels. They are somewhere between a class and a background. Class levels are finite in 5e, so this allows for a light version of a class without breaking normal progression.
