D&D Avengers: Black Widow

Alright, so it has been some time since I last worked on these. I'm still not very happy with what I did for the Hulk and will likely revisit him. But in the mean time, I'm going to move forward to our next hero to show up in the Marvel cinematic universe: Natasha Romanoff the Black Widow.

Natasha is a cunning woman with amazing skills of subterfuge. She is an agile combatant and a master of manipulation. Without a doubt, she is an Assassin Rogue. There really isn't much to do there. She likely has the Martial Artist feat I made for Dick Grayson back when I did the Young Justice posts, and she also should have some kick ass gear.

The big thing I remember her having were the electric batons. Lets see what those would look like:

Shocking Batons
Two +1 Clubs, Rare (requires attunement)
This pair of black batons look similar to nightsticks carried by city guards, but carry immense power. Each baton deals electric damage in addition to bludgeoning damage. After making an attack, but before you know whether it is a hit, you may expend a choose to stun the target on a hit until the start of your next turn. You may do this once per baton, and this ability recharges during a long rest.

I like this. It gives her the ability to do some control on top of just hitting people hard, while still enabling her to hit people hard. Giving advantage on the next attack is a huge deal for a rogue. 

Now that we have the awesome magic item out of the way, lets build her.

Leveling Natasha: As she levels up, give her the Assassin archetype and use the ability score improvements to up her dexterity and charisma. Another good idea would be to get her the crossbow expert feat. She should be able to make all the NPC's do as she wants and clock anyone who talks bad about her. In addition, her disguise abilities ought to make her a bad ass spy. I'm sure she'd be damn fun to play.
