Sneak Attack: +6d6 damage
Roguish Archetype:: Arcane Trickster
Mage Hand Legerdemain: Varis can make his Mage Hand invisible, and can perform the following extra tasks with it: He can stow one object the hand is holding in a container worn or carried by another creature. He can retrieve an object in a container worn or carried by another creature. He can use thieves' tools to pick locks and disarm traps at range (up to 30ft). These tasks can be performed without being noticed by a creature if Varis succeeds on a Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) check contested by the creature's Wisdom (Perception) check.
Expertise: Thieves' Tools, Sleight of Hand, Stealth, Acrobatics
Cunning Action: Can use a bonus action each turn in combat to take a Dash, Disengage, or Hide action. Additionally, Varis can use Cunning Action to control his Mage Hand.
Steady Aim: As a bonus action, you give yourself advantage on your next attack roll on the current turn. You can use this bonus action only if you haven't moved during this turn, and after you use the bonus action, your speed is 0 until the end of the current turn.
Uncanny Dodge: When an attacker that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the attack's damage against you.
Evasion: Varis can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain area effects. When subjected to an effect that allows him to make a Dexterity Saving throw to take only half damage, he instead takes no damage if he succeeds on the saving throw and only half damage if he fails.
Magical Ambush: When Varis is hidden from a creature he casts a spell on, that creature has disadvantage on any saving throw it makes against the spell this turn.
Steady Aim: As a bonus action, you give yourself advantage on your next attack roll on the current turn. You can use this bonus action only if you haven't moved during this turn, and after you use the bonus action, your speed is 0 until the end of the current turn.

Cloak of Displacement which is Attuned This Cloak of Displacement is made from the hide of a displacer beast. This hide was once part of a black dragon's horde as a trophy. It grows slightly warm when within 120ft of a dragon. Its history is ornamental as it has mithril filigree on the back in addition to mithril threading along the seams. The clasp is carved out of a small scale from the black dragon whose horde the displacer hide was taken from. While wearing this cloak, a person suffers no harm in temperatures as cold as -20 degrees Fahrenheit or as warm as 120 degrees Fahrenheit while also granting a small boon in awareness of the wearer's surroundings as it has a protective nature of that of a Guardian granting +2 initiative and +2 to any perception check that if failed would result in Varis being surprised in the first round of combat. Also, this cloak can create a harmless visual effect within 5ft of Varis that can be anything he desires for as long as he concentrates on the effect. This item has 4 charges, regains 1d4 at dawn. Can produce a sound that can only be heard by up to 10 creatures within 600ft as long as the creature is not deafened.
