In Dungeons & Dragons, the Executioner is a term that typically refers to a character or NPC (Non-Player Character) who is responsible for carrying out the execution of prisoners or those deemed deserving of death, usually as a form of punishment or justice. While not an official class or archetype in the core rulebooks, the concept of an Executioner can appear within various campaigns, particularly in settings with strong legal or governmental systems where executions are a form of capital punishment. Executioners often embody themes of duty, justice, and moral ambiguity. 

In terms of mechanics, an Executioner could be a character who uses lethal force to carry out their orders. This might be reflected in their choice of weapons, such as an axe, sword, or even a specialized executioner’s weapon like a great axe. They could be portrayed as highly disciplined and trained individuals, focusing on precise and efficient methods of ending lives. This role could be further enriched by a combination of the Fighter, Rogue, or even Paladin classes, depending on the specific backstory and character development. 

In some campaigns, an Executioner could also serve as a unique subclass or an NPC tied to the justice system of a kingdom or a city-state. Depending on the alignment and worldview of the Executioner, they might see their role as a necessary evil, upholding the law and ensuring that those who break it meet a deserved end. Conversely, they could struggle with the moral weight of their actions, which can create deep internal conflict and character development opportunities. Overall, an Executioner in D&D represents a figure who brings a dark sense of justice to the world, with personal motivations and choices that shape their interactions and the story.
