Fighter Subclasses

### Gladiator
Gladiators battle for the entertainment of raucous crowds. Some gladiators are brutal pit fighters who treat each match as a life-or-death struggle, while others are professional duelists who command huge fees but rarely fight to the death.

*10th-level Gladiator feature*

On a failed save, a creature is frightened of you for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

___
When you use your Action Surge or Second Wind feature, you experience a surge of energy until the end of your next turn.

### Banneret
A banneret inspires greatness in others by committing brave deeds in battle. A lone banneret is a skilled warrior, but a banneret leading a band of allies can transform even the most poorly equipped militia into a ferocious war band.

A banneret prefers to lead through deeds, not words. As a banneret spearheads an attack, the banneret's actions can awaken reserves of courage and conviction in allies that they never suspected they had.

#### Monster Slayer

Whenever you hit a weapon attack with advantage against a creature, you can cause the weapon to deal twice as much damage.
