# Class Feature Feats ## Introduction I have long held the belief that certain class features could be extracted as feats. My hope is not to step on the toes of any class, but instead to offer something of an alternative to multiclassing. Maybe your Fighter character has grown a sense of humour, and you are contemplating a level or two in Bard for thematic reasons; my alternative would give you access to a limited amount of the *Inspiration* class feature, as a feat rather than taking any level dips into the Bard class. When choosing to use these feats I would caution allowing them carte blanche, and instead requiring narrative permissions to take any of the following feats. For instance a Divination Wizard who is very scholarly, prim and proper would probably not be able to take the Form of the Wild feat, while a primal Barbarian with the hermit background would. The prerequisite of 4th level or higher, which is shared by each of the following feats is to ensure that no character is able to take one of the features before a character that levels exclusively in the respective class takes it. Finally I would caution against allowing players to take any of these feats more than once. This could lead to some unintended balance issues, and taking the same feat more than once has not currently been considered when balancing these feats. ## Barbarian Feats ### Intense Rage *Prerequisite: 4th level or higher* *** You are fueled by an intense rage, that allows you to unleash terrible devastation in a fight. You gain the following benefits: * You gain one use of the *Rage* class feature (this use of *Rage* is added to any uses provided by another source) as detailed in the Barbarian class. * Your Rage Damage is +2 unless you have a greater Rage Damage bonus provided by another source. ## Bard Feats ### Inspiring Persona *Prerequisite: 4th level or higher* *** You have learned how to inspire your allies through stirring words or musical performances.

You may expend this inspiration die as detailed in the Bard's *Inspiration* class feature. When this die is expended you must finish a long rest before you may use it again. * Upon reaching 12th level (or taking this feat past 12th level) you gain one more additional inspiration die, which is a d8. This die follows the same rules as the d6 die detailed previously in this feat. ## Cleric Feats ### Turn Undead *Prerequisite: 4th level or higher* *** You have learned how to channel the power of your deity to turn undead creatures away from you.
