The Path of Monstrous Mutation

The Barbarian that walks this path recognizes the inherent power of the monsters that make up this adventuring world and looks to absorb their power in the most direct means possible. This means putting their constitutions to the ultimate test.

Plant - Treant Roots

If you touch a creature for a prolonged time you can transfer some of your stamina to them. After 1 minute of contact with the creature, you can consume an amount of Hit Die equal to your proficiency bonus, roll the expended hit die, and the creature regains hit points equal to the total + your Constitution modifier.

You can use this ability a number of times per long rest equal to your constitution mofdifier, minimum of 1.

Undead - Vampire Fang

When you attack and make contact with a living creature you can use your connection to the undead to steal some of their vitality and life.

If you hit a creature with a melee attack you can use your bonus action to give yourself temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier.

Changeling Catalyst

You also gain the ability to cast the Comprehend Languages and Alter Self spells, but only as rituals.

Monstrous Attunement

You gain an additional magical benefit based on the monstrous mutation of your choice. You can choose the same mutation you selected at 3rd level or a different one.

Monster Empathy

You are able to meditate on your connection to the monsters you consume to better understand the skills they possess. Because of this, you can cast the Skill Empowerment spell targeting yourself, but only as a ritual.

When you do so, a spiritual version of one of the monsters you chose for Monstrous Aspect or Attunement appears to you to impart the skills you seek.

The Plague

Balancing the Humors

Your understanding of the disease within you allows you to experiment with cures during battle. When you roll initiative you can choose one of three Humors to study during battle and gain the associated effect for 1 minute.

After studying one Humor you cannot choose that same Humor again until you take a long rest.

Social Distancing

You have found a way to keep potential hosts from getting too close to you. Before your Infectious Burst would trigger, you can use your reaction to move a creature within range of the burst 10 feet away from you.

Additionally, you can now use your Treatment feature two times per long rest.

Vital Vaccination

You have achieved such a powerful understanding of the disease that lives inside of you that you can manipulate its growth to benefit yourself and others.

As an action you can touch a creature and enhance its natural healing ability. The target regains 6d6 hit points and gains temporary hit points equal to your warlock level.

As long as the target possesses the temporary hit points gained by this ability the target has immunity to poison damage and they can make Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution saving throws with advantage.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

The Predestined

Your patron is a future version of yourself that has attained great powers. Now safe in the future, your patron has contacted you in order to guide and support you to a future where they exist.

Accepting that guidance makes you a Predestined, one who walks through the fog of time with clear eyes.

Borrowed Magic

Being a Predestined allows you to borrow magic from your future self. As such, the first time you cast a spell from you expanded spell list it does not use a pact slot to cast. You can borrow magic this way again once you take a short or long rest.

Additionally, you learn the Guidance and Distraction Cantrips and cast them without verbal, somatic or material components

Déjà vu

You can sense important moments in your future self's past, your present, and gain insight into how to handle those situations. Once per short rest if you were to fail a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll you can choose to add your warlock level to the result. If this addition gives you a result that equals 21 exactly, before bonues are added, it is considered a critical success.

Control the Narrative

You have a better sense of what needs to happen in your journey and are more proficient in shaping events. When casting the Guidance or Distraction cantrip you roll a 1d6 instead of a 1d4.

Additionally, whenever you make a Charisma (Persuasion) check, treat a roll of 7 or lower on the d20 as an 8.

Checkpoint

When you roll initiative you can expend a pact slot to create a checkpoint for your current self, marking the location with magic for as long as you remain in initiative.

Mana Breather

His blade glistened with magic as the air seemed to distort with each breath, and with one forceful movement the elf bounded up the mountain.

A giff tinkers on her gun as they integrate magic into the weapon. As her tinkering completes the weapon’s colors shifted as the magic binds to it.

The kobold meditates, focusing on its breathing. feeling mana flowing into, around, and out. An unknown time later the smell of food arises and with a surge of mana they teleport away.

Each of these unique people are Mana Breathers, one of the most magically Spiritual classes. Mana Breathers follow the flow of mana and learn from it. Whether its through instruction, or personal discovery, Mana Breathers must eventually be chosen by the mana of their surrounding environment. Without this choosing, no amount of training will suffice.

Select one melee weapon that you are proficient with to apply your Mana's Blessing to. Only one Weapon can benefit from your Mana's Blessing at a time. When you hit a creature of the chosen type using a weapon to which you've applied your Mana's Blessing, you can increase the damage dealt by 1d4 (1d6 at 7th level, 1d8 at 14th level).

Breath Points

Your Mana Breathing allows you to access a pool of power known as Breath Points. You have a number of Breath Points equal to your Mana Breather level + your Constitution modifier. You can spend these points to fuel various features gained in your Breathing Style. In order to use Breath Points, you must be able to breathe. You regain all spent Breath Points at the end of a long rest.

Some of your Breath Point features require your target to make a saving throw to resist the feature's effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Mist Breathing

When you roll Initiative, you roll twice and and select which roll to use.

Additionally, once per turn when you spend at least 1 Breath Point, you can also create a 5-foot radius area of heavy obscuring mist centered on where you are located, called a Mist Cloud. Mist Clouds last for 1 minute and have the properties of the Fog Cloud spell. You can sense if a creature is in your Mist Clouds, and you can tell if they are hostile. You cannot place a Mist Cloud in the same location as another.

As a bonus action, you can become invisible when you're within a Mist Cloud or Sea of Mist until the start of your next turn or you leave the mist.

Those who enter your mists are rarely seen again. When you target a creature that is obscured by any of your Mist Breathing features, your attacks score a critical hit on a roll of 18-20.

Mastery Form:

Molecular Dissonance

As a bonus action you enter a momentary state where your presence is removed from the battlefield. This lasts for 3 rounds. While in this state you cannot be targeted by any creature and you cannot take Actions, Bonus Actions, Reactions, or any other type of minor action or free object interactions.

Instead, you gain 3 Legendary Actions. You can spend these Legendary Actions to use the options below. Only one Legendary Action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. You regain spent Legendary Actions at the start of your turn.

Reality Breathing

You can breathe normally in any environment, and can survive in a vacuum.

Additionally, at any time you can lock yourself in place until the start of your next turn, entering a Spacial Stance. You cannot move or be moved while in this Spacial Stance. You choose what you are locked to relatively, such as the ground, an object, or a vehicle.

Mastery Form: Point of Void

Void is simply the erasure of reality, as such, space is a concept. You no longer need to breathe or eat. You can choose to be affected or unaffected by effects that supernaturally distort the space around you. For example, if the spell Reverse Gravity is cast, you can be unaffected, or you could survive in the singularity of a black hole.

Additionally, you can use the spell Ravenous Void as a spell-like ability once per long rest. When casted this way, you are immune to effects of the spell. While you're within the area of the spell that would be difficult terrain, your movement is instead doubled.

Temporal Dilation

As a bonus action you can enter a Temporal Dilation stance. While in this stance, any ongoing effects (positive or negative) that are affecting you as well as any damage you take or healing you receive is delayed for either one or two turns (your choice when you enter this stance). At the beginning of the turn in which this stance ends, you are subjected to the accumulated delayed effects and damage.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus per long rest.

Sixth Form: Time Out

As an action, you can touch a willing creature to grant them the effects of a short rest. If they have spell slots, they can recover 1d3 spell slots of 5th level or lower of their choice. You can not use this feature again until you complete a long rest.

Mastery Form:

Action Beyond Time

You no longer age and you are immune to any form of aging.

In addition, you can speed up to the point that everything else comes to a stand still. As an action you can spend 13 Breath Points to use the spell time stop as a spell like ability.

While the spell is active, if you use an ability that costs Breathe Points, the ability does not fully activate. Instead, you spend the action and Breathe Point requirements and the start of the ability manifests frozen in the air, but does not affect any creatures. Once the spell ends, any abilities frozen in this matter all simultaneously unfreeze and affect their targets simultaneously. If multiple abilities would affect a creature, you decide the order they apply.

Author

With one hand bearing a hand-bound, hand-written tome, an aging tortle places his hand on the shoulder of his dwarven ally and recites a dramatic line. The story within the tome flares as he calls upon it, and the orc warlord they face flexes his shoulders, his focus now turned entirely to the staunch dwarf.

A laughing eladrin, her hair streaming upward like a living flame and her eyes sparking with the light of summer, laughs and narrates in perfect concert, her voice chiming almost musically as she recites the lines of her epic poem. The skin of her foes prickles as the heat of her tale, a fable of the goddess of flame, kindles their very flesh.

A stoic halfing, hans eyes shadowed beneath hans furrowed brow, runs a finger along the lines etched into one of the black stone tablets that orbits hans body, whispering the words ne carved upon it with disturbing ferocity. When ne strikes hans foe, the wound opens wider than the blade should allow.

Authors have an intimate relationship with the stories of the world. They write them, yes, but they also discover them. They create anew that which already exists, scribing truth even when the words they string together describe something that has not yet come to pass. The works they make represent the world as it is, was, and could be, and the world, recognizing this, alters itself to suit the tale.

Creating an Author

As you're developing your author, consider how your character developed his or her proficiency with storytelling. Are you a recluse who has devoted your life to reading tome after tome, and who only now, inspired by the success of your own work, has decided to interact with the world? Are you the student of a famed storyteller, one who taught you everything you know —but perhaps not everything she knew? Or are you a natural prodigy, from whom resonant words flow with an ease that makes those who sweat over every syllable curse you under their breath?

Quick Build

You can make an author quickly by following these suggestions. First, Charisma should be your highest score, followed by Constitution. Next, choose the fables Eloen Chronicles Everything and The Guardian and Hans Ward. Then, pick the cantrips condemning quill and guidance, and the 1st-level spells find familiar, healing word, and silvery barbs. Finally, choose the Sage background.

Hit Points

• Hit Dice: 1d8 per Author level
• Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Constitution modifier
• Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + your Constitution modifier per Author level after the first

Proficiencies

• Armor: Light armor
• Weapons: Simple weapons
• Tools: Calligrapher's supplies, and choose one other set of artisan's tools

• One simple melee weapon
• Leather armor
• Calligrapher's supplies and one other set of tools in which you are proficient A scholar's pack

Authorship

You have learned how to author such brilliantly crafted, descriptive tales of the world that you can draw upon them for power, realizing pieces of them and turning your imaginings into reality.

At first level, you bear two fables, which can take the form of heavy tomes, impressive scrolls, or even intricately carved stone tablets. Your fable options are chosen from those presented at the end of the class description. As long as your fables are within 5 feet of you, you benefit from their lesson, a static effect representing the knowledge you gain from them. You gain additional fables at levels 5, 11, and 17. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of your fables with another.

If one of your fables is destroyed, you can spend 8 hours and 10 gp to replace it.

Spellcasting

Your mastery of your craft, from inspiring the imaginations of others to forging scenes and events so real they take on a life of your own, has reached a supernatural level of refinement, allowing you to reimagine the world around you.

Spellcasting Ability

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your author spells: your raw creativity and your ability to impress your imagination on the world fuels your magic. You use your Charisma whenever an author spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for an author spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Literary Tradition

You have begun to focus on a specific subset of your literary talents by joining an existing Literary Tradition. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level, and again at levels 9, 14, and 18.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 6th, 8th, 12th, 14th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Freedom of Speech

As an action, you can set two of your fables into a floating orbit around yourself. As long as they remain in orbit, they count as held in hand for the purpose of your author features, though their orbit leaves your hands free. You can grasp or stow an orbiting fable as a bonus action.

Captivating Narration

Whenever you take damage from a creature while narrating, if you maintain your concentration, the triggering creature makes a Charisma saving throw. If it fails, it is charmed by you until the end of your next turn or until it takes any damage. Creatures that can't hear or understand your narration are immune to this effect.

Greater Works

You can prepare spells of the 2nd level as works.

Literary Adaptation

At the end of a long rest, you can synthesize the contents of two of your chosen fables into one new fable which combines their effects. You treat the adapted fable as though it were both fables at once. When you narrate from it, both narration effects occur simultaneously.

The fables used to create the adapted fable become inert, but they aren't destroyed. You can't combine an adapted fable with another fable. If you use one of the component fables of an adapted fable to create a new adapted fable, the previous adaptation ceases to function.

Practiced Storyteller

You can maintain concentration on a narration and on one spell simultaneously, and you have advantage on constitution saving throws to maintain concentration on narrations.

Immaculate Works

Your works are indestructible.

If you craft fewer works at the end of a long rest than your maximum, you can spend 1 minute crafting a work at any other time. You can do so until you reach your maximum number of daily works.

Cohesive Allegory

While narrating, you combine the narration effects of all of your fables which are within 5 feet of you, regardless of which fable you are narrating.

Author Laureate

You can craft two bonus works at the end of each long rest, each of which represents a spell of the 6th level or lower chosen from any class, including this one.

Spells

Way of the Mantle

Monks that follow the Way of the Mantle have learned to enhance their already impressive capabilities even further with the power of their ideals.

In order to keep their traditions secret, warriors of this practice have also learned to convert their ki into outfits to hide their identities. Some monasteries tend to have their practitioners theme themselves around certain concepts such as animals, vehicles, or the elements. Another way to keep their ways hidden is to keep their numbers small. The average number of students at a time tend to be around six, but certain sects have expanded to be up to double that. Some students break away from their cloisters go the path of vigilantism either as a team or individually.

Although the initial reason to transform
is to keep themselves hidden, there can
be other reasons to do so. There are
those who want to separate their
acts of heroism from their
core selves. Some want to
give people a symbol to aspire
to.

The Way of the Mantle is known to be the more bombastic of the monastic traditions when compared to the others in the eyes of the laymen and other monks. This is due to a combination of their usually loud outfits, propensity for dramatic poses, and the occasional explosion that tends to occur around them.

The origins of this teaching is shrouded in mystery. Some say that this tradition is a spin-off of another that learned to manifest their true selves. Others claim that this practice stems from a group of color-coordinated monks with attitude adapting the ways paladins manifest their oath into power to better suit themselves. Some hypothesize that the start of this tradition may be sourced from beyond the stars or even this plane. There are those who state that there is a very simple explanation before they're interrupted and the conversation never continues from there.

Heroic Mantle

The power of justice and your ki causes you to transform! Choose a tiny object, a piece of armor, or a weapon to infuse your ki and your vision of heroism into. This object functions as your transformation device and it only works for you.

From then on, you can use a bonus action to don your Heroic Mantle by spending 1 ki point which activates your transformation device. Your Heroic Mantle can be as simple as a change in hairstyle and/or color. Or it could be a complete change in outfit including the look of your equipment. If your Heroic Mantle includes armor, you do not benefit from any change in Armor Class from it. You can change the appearance of your Heroic Mantle during a short or long rest. When you assume this state, you gain the following benefits:

• Any bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage you take is reduced by an amount equal to your proficiency bonus.
• Your Martial Arts die goes up by one level with a maximum of 2d6. For example, if it's normally 1d4, it becomes 1d6. If your Martial Arts die in your normal state is 1d10, it becomes 2d6.
• If a spell you cast requires a weapon attack to activate its effect(s), you can use unarmed strikes instead.
• Your jump height and distance are doubled.

This form lasts for up to 1 minute. You automatically revert if you fall unconscious, drop to 0 hit points, or die. You can also end this transformation early as a bonus action.

If your transformation device is lost or broken, it can be replaced with a 1-hour ritual where you repeat the process from the start of this feature into an applicable item to give yourself the ability to transform again. This ceremony can take place during a short or long rest.

Spellcasting

You can execute special attacks through casting spells. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting and the Spells Listing for the Paladin spell list. Added to this spell list are the Enlarge/Reduce, Pyrotechnics, and Summon Construct spells.

Cantrip: You learn the Thaumaturgy cantrip.

Spell Slots: The Way of the Mantle Spellcasting table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your Paladin spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

For example, if you know the 1st-level spell Cure Wounds and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast Cure Wounds using either slot.

Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher: You know three 1st-level Paladin spells of your choice.

The Spells Known column of the Way of the Mantle Spellcasting table shows when you learn more paladin spells of 1st level or higher. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 7th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the Paladin spells you know with another spell of your choice from the expanded Paladin spell list. The new spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability: Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your Paladin spells, since your power derives from the strength of your willpower. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Paladin spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

The Faceless

The Faceless is a newer entity in the realms. Despite their young age, they are able and willing to dole out a fraction of their power.

This creature has a peculiar hobby: Stealing faces. Their reason for doing so is unknown to the layman. Some theorize that they are a trickster deity out to get some kicks by spreading chaos. On the flip side of said theory, some claim they are a forgotten deity, trying to regain their former glory. As some schools of thought believe that taking one's face means stealing identities which leads to amassing their power. Rumors say that the Faceless is an extremely powerful bard looking to create a collection of adoring fan's faces to have an eternally captivated audience. A minor theory going around is that the Faceless is the manifestation of the universe's loss. Or they could be the antithesis of beauty.

Followers of this patron typically give up either their faces or their true name in exchange for power. In rare cases, they can even give up the ability to recognize faces. The typical sign of someone who has the Faceless as their patron is the possession of a reflective or featureless mask.

Service Without a Smile

Forfeiting a face to your patron fills you with a supernatural confidence.

After you roll an ability check, attack roll, or saving throw, but before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails, you can expend a stolen face to add your proficiency bonus to the roll, even if you're already rolling with proficiency. You can also use this feature with a face you're using as a disguise.

Slip of the Mask

You can give up the faces you've stolen to get out of scrapes by the skin of your teeth.

As a reaction to taking damage, you can expend one of your stolen faces to reduce that damage to half (rounded down). You can also use this feature with a face you're using as a disguise.

Face in the Crowd

You can now animate the faces you've stolen to fight for you.

As an action, you can twist the essence left in the faces you've procured into a mockery of life. You can expend any number of the stolen faces you have to summon spectral versions of their originators, known as Masked Actors, and assign them roles. They are summoned in unoccupied spaces 10 feet around you. The Masked Actors come in three types: Soldier, Beast, and Demon.

The creatures are allies to you and your companions. In combat, the manifestations shares your initiative count, but they take their turn immediately after yours. They can move and use their reaction on their own, but the only action they take on their turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command them to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the creatures acts on their own, focusing on protecting you and themselves. The creatures never requires your command to use their reaction, such as when making an opportunity attack.

The Masked Actors can last up to an hour and can be dismissed early as a bonus action. The Masked Actors also disappear automatically if you fall unconscious, drop to 0 hit points, or die.

Once you use this ability, you can't use it again until you complete a long rest.

The School of Rifts

How this school of magic got its start is rooted in rumors. Some say that these techniques were left behind by a planeswalker forgotten to time. Others will claim that a fey prankster left the secrets to these abilities laying around to see what will happen on the material plane. There are those who say that the god of travel gifted these abilities to mortals. Most will say that origin of this school of magic came from a group of students of a wizard specialized in conjuration being salty about the lack of portal shenanigans in their specialty. It's probably also a result of spite and caffeine.

Egress

You can now weaponize your wormholes.

As an action, you can force a creature or object within 5 feet of a wormhole to make a Strength saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failure, the target is sucked into it and forced out your other wormhole. You can choose to place them gently on the other side or launch them as a ranged spell attack with a range of 30 feet of the exit wormhole. On a hit, both the target of the attack and the creature or object used as ammunition take bludgeoning damage + your Intelligence modifier plus an additional damage die per 10 feet traveled. The maximum sized creature you can affect as well as the damage die they deal and take can be found on the Egress Table. After dealing and taking damage, the launched creature will then land prone.

Objects intended as ammo (arrows, crossbow bolts, etc.) and weapons with the thrown property retain their damage die and you add your Intelligence modifier to any damage they deal.

Damage from this feature counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

If a creature or object keeps falling after 30 feet, they start following the falling rules detailed in the Standard Rules Document (pg. 86). This damage does not count as magical.

You can use this feature's action as a reaction when a creature is within 5 feet of a wormhole.

Spells

Body of the Void

As your powers grow stronger and stronger, your body too begins to change. You gain resistance to cold damage, you no longer need to breathe, you don't require food, water, or sleep, and you can survive underwater or in the vacuum of space without ill effect although you still require rest to reduce exhaustion and still benefit from finishing short and long rests.

Void Gate

You and your allies can use your Voidwalls as portals. You or a creature of your choice can use their bonus action to step into a Voidwall within 5 feet and reappear within 5 feet of another Voidwall.

Bolstering Void

You can consume your Voidwalls to further strengthen yourself. When a Voidwall within 30 feet of you is destroyed by taking damage, you regain a number of hit points equal to half your fighter level.

You gain the ability to augment your spells with your prismatic magic. Whenever you cast a sorcerer spell of 1st level or higher that deals damage,you may turn it into a prismatic spell. Roll on the table below, the damage type of the spell changes to match the result you rolled. Every colour comes with its own effect, if a spell affects several creatures you can only choose one creature to apply the effect.

A creature can consume a serving of the lemonade as an action on its turn. Ingesting too much will force the creature to make a Constitution save against alcohol as normal, in this case the DC being equal to your Spell Save DC. If your table uses the rules outlined in "Taverns and Tankards", the lemonade gives two levels of drunkenness on a failed save, and one on a successful one.

Marshal

Force of Character

Marshals often start out as soldiers or members of a larger group, whether military or otherwise. However, they rise above the rest. Not by honing skills with weapons or magic, but by their ability to draw greatness out of others, whether consciously or not. When an individual with such talents surfaces, they are often thrust into positions of leadership, willingly or otherwise, by those around them.

However, not all Marshals are trained warriors. A village elder, the captain of a ship, or even the head of a gang of thugs make equally viable Marshals. The key similarity among them all is that they all possess a magnetic personality that makes people flock to them, and a strong force of character that allows them to inspire great acts in others when other leaders could not. Thus, those under the leadership of a Marshal are often surprised that they must find a way to accommodate such a strong-willed personality being added to their number.

Class Features

As a Marshal, you gain the following features.

Orders

What separates a Marshal from other would-be leaders? It is when, amidst the violence and horrors of the battlefield — over the deafening din of shouted curses of combatants and the death screams of the wounded — a Marshal's order cuts through the din to spur their allies to action. If war is the crucible where warriors are forged, then the orders of a Marshal are the hammer that shapes their mettle.

At 1st level, you learn two Orders of your choice. These Orders are listed on the following page.

You learn additional Orders as you gain levels in this class, as seen in the Orders column of the Marshal class table. You can only issue orders to creatures that can see or hear you. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one Order you know and replace it with another.

Marshal's Warpath

The path that a Marshal walks shapes their ability to lead others. You must choose one that your Marshal walks down.

Choose either the Bannermen, Counsellor, Raidmaster, Tactician, or Warlord.

This choice grants you Warpath features at 1st level and again at 3rd, 6th, 12th and 18th level.

Leader's Presence

Your words and actions generate a presence that can motivate and embolden those you deem your allies, giving you unprecedented command over the battlefield.

Beginning at 2nd level, you gain a Leader's Presence of your choice. Your Leader's Presence options are detailed at the end of the class description.

Each Leader's Presence
affects the area within
30 feet of you. Leader's
Presences become inactive
while you're unconscious. You
gain no benefit from your own
Leader's Presence.

You gain additional Leader's
Presences as you gain levels in this
class, as seen in the Leader's Presence
column of the Marshal class table.

Additionally, when you gain a level in this
class, you can choose one of your Leader's
Presence and replace it with another.

Take Charge

You are quick to take control when the unexpected strikes.

Starting at 7th level, if you are surprised at the beginning of combat and aren't incapacitated you can act normally on your first turn, but only if you issue an Order or Command before doing anything else on that turn.

Anticipate

Your knowledge and experience in leading others almost give you a sixth sense when it comes to anticipating things you may need in advance or what might go wrong.

At 9th level, you gain the ability to anticipate the unexpected while planning ahead and purchasing supplies.

• Planning. During a long rest if you spend at least an hour pondering a course of action, the GM gives you some insight on one or more likely problems with your contemplated course of action. This could be a particularly stubborn diplomat, an insufficient number of troops to accomplish a goal or even the lack of an ally's resolve to see a plan through.

  This feature does not give you access to any information that you would not reasonably know. For example, if an enemy has secretly bolstered their forces with mercenaries, you wouldn't learn that; however, the GM may inform you that this enemy would never make a move against you at their current strength, so the fact that they are must mean that something has changed, something that is likely to impact your own forces.

• Purchasing. While you are in a location where equipment can be purchased, you can spend at least an hour during a long rest gathering supplies in careful preparation. At any time thereafter, before your next long rest, if you find yourself in need of a particular item, you can add such items to your equipment as if you had purchased them during your careful preparation. The cost of such items is equal to their market price.

  Up to three items may be retroactively purchased in this manner at a time. Once you produce any given item, you can't add that item to your equipment again until the next time you come to a location where that item can be purchased. A GM can limit or exempt certain items according to availability or reasonability.

Command the Troops

When you give a command, your allies carry it out unwaveringly. Such is your resolve.

Starting at 10th level, you have advantage on Constitution saving throws made to concentrate on Commands.

Dauntless Leader

You are the dominant presence in any conflict, your will manifest in the bloodshed.

At 13th level, whenever an ally in range of your Leader's Presence makes an a saving throw against a damaging effect (such as a rain of arrows) or an attack roll, you can choose to change the d20 roll to a 10 should the ally roll a 9 or lower.

You can do this a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier per short rest.

Disciplined Mind

You have acquired greater mental strength.

At 14th level, you gain proficiency in Wisdom saving throws.

Embolden the Troops

Shouted commands inspire others to fight on.

Starting at 15th level, when you issue a Command all allies within range of your Leader's presence regain 4d8 + your Charisma modifier hit points.

Peerless Leader

Those you lead will never know defeat; your leadership inspires the greatest among all who stand besides you.

At 20th level, when you spend a use of your Dauntless Leader feature, you can choose to also expend a Hit Die to have the result of the saving throw against a damaging effect or attack roll be considered to have been a 20 on the d20, instead of a 10 on the d20.

Marshal's Warpath

Marshals walk one of these warpaths: Bannermen, Counsellor, Raidmaster, Tactician, or Warlord.

These archetypes of the Marshal class are each different, but all involve leading and aiding others.

.

Counsellor

A Counsellors voice is their weapon. Counsellors fight the war of words and politics, while their companions fight the war of steel and blood. They have the ears of heroes and lords and can accomplish more with a whispered word than with a drawn sword.

Worthy Counsel

Those who trust your word reap the gift of your guidance. It is a pity for some, for your counsel can blindly lead them astray, should you wish it.

By 6th level, whenever a creature that can hear you makes a skill check using a skill you're proficient with following your counsel, you can use your reaction to give them advantage on their roll.

Alternatively, you can give bad counsel and impose disadvantage on the roll, but only if the creature trusts you and accepts your advice at face value. The creature is not aware you hindered them with your advise, unless it is blatantly obvious you did so.

Repose

You always know what to say to calm the nerves of the worried.

Beginning at 12th level, whenever you use your Rallying Speech feature, your allies gain additional temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier for each Hit die they spend.

Tactician

Tacticians use their supreme understanding of tactics to lead their allies to victory, emphasising cautious consideration and strategic attack over brute force and raw martial maneuverers.
Their orders are cunningly thought out and executed.

Warlord

A Warlord is a veteran of leadership, often ruling over a domain long before leading soldiers in battle. Most noble lords in the world are Warlords, using their influence in land, oaths, and gold to rally the peasantry to arms.

Leader's Presences

The list of Leader's Presences is presented below, in alphabetical order.

Dirty Hands

War is a grim thing. As such you inspire your warriors to win the fight, by what ever means necessary.

All allies that can see you in range that are Flanking a creature may use their reaction to make an opportunity attack against the flanked creature should that creature take the Attack action on their turn and not target all flanking creatures with an attack. This only provokes an opportunity attack for the non-targeted flanking creatures.

Kick 'em While They're Down: You command those around you to curb stomp fallen enemies. For 1 minute all allies that can see you in range add your Charisma modifier to damage rolls made against prone or incapacitated creatures. This Command requires you to maintain Concentration.

Impaling Insult: You command your foes to stick their weapons were the sun don't shine. Choose a number of enemies in range that can hear and understand you equal to your Charisma modifier. The chosen targets must make a Wisdom saving throw or take 1d6 + your proficiency bonus psychic damage and take a -2 penalty to their AC for 1 minute as they drop their guard in response to your scathing comment. Effected targets can reattempt the saving throw at the end of their turn, ending the effect on a success.

Marshal's Heart

You have an aura of unnatural charisma that make warriors flock to you and heed your order.

While in combat your Charisma score is considered to be increased by 2, as is your maximum for that score. This does not give you additional uses of abilities who's number of uses is tied to your Charisma Modifier.

Face of the Warband: You command such an aura of charisma that your orders never go unheard. For 1 minute while in combat, you can use your Charisma score as the DC for your Command Save DC, should it be higher. This Command ends early if you become frightened or incapacitated.

Join or Die. You command a foe to join your forces or perish with their own. Choose one hostile creature within range that can see, hear, and understand you. It must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you for one minute. If you or creatures that are friendly to you are currently fighting it, it has advantage on the saving throw. While the target is charmed, you can issue commands to the creature while you are conscious as an action, which it does it's best to obey. The command must take no longer than an action to complete. If the creature doesn't receive further direction from you, it defends and preserves itself to the best of its ability. Each time the target takes damage, it makes a new Wisdom saving throw, ending the effect on a success. Creatures immune to the charmed or frightened condition are unaffected.

Morale Breaker

Enemies take one look at you and begin to rethink their approach.

All enemies in range that can see you must spend 2 feet of movement for every 1 they move towards you.

Demoralize: You command your allies to hurl abuse at your foes, demoralising them. For 1 minute, all enemies in range that can see and hear you gain a penalty to their attack rolls and Wisdom saving throws equal to your Charisma modifier. At the start of their turns, effected targets can use a bonus action to make a Wisdom saving throw, negating the effect until the end of their turn on a success. This Command requires you to maintain Concentration.

Menacing Gaze: You command your foes to fear you. Select a number of enemies that can see you in range equal to your Charisma modifier. The chosen enemies must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become frightened of you until the end of their next turn, at which point they can use a bonus action on their turn to attempt the saving throw again, ending the effect on a success.

Reassuring Presence

Those you lead into battle are assured by your leadership.

All allies in range that can see and hear you have resistance to psychic damage and halve the duration of negative mind altering effects they're suffering from (minimum of 1 round).

Sound Advice: You command your allies not to succumb to the horrors of the battlefield. For 10 minutes, all allies in range that can see and hear you gain a bonus to saving throws against negative mind altering effects equal to you Charisma modifier.

Recoup: You command your allies to catch their breath before re-engaging. Choose a number of allies equal to your Charisma modifier that can see or hear you in range. The chosen allies regain Hit Points equal to a roll of their Hit Die + your Charisma modifier.

Shoulder to Shoulder

In the gore spilling and blood letting of combat, your warriors stand united.

All allies in range that stand within 5 feet of another ally who isn't incapacitated gain a +1 bonus to their AC.

Back to Back: You command your allies to cover each others backs. For 1 minute, all allies in range that stand within 5 feet of another ally do not provoke opportunity attacks and cannot be Flanked.

Together We Stand: You command your troops to gather around you. All allies that are within 10 feet of you at the end of your next turn gain temporary hit points equal to 2 x your Marshal level, which last until combat ends.

Stand as One

As wounds mount, many will resign themselves to death. But as long as you stand, no one falls.

All allies in range that can see or hear you reduce all damage, except psychic damage, inflicted on them by 2.

Ironclad: You command your allies to reinforce their armour while in the fray. For 1 minute, all allies in range that can see or hear you reduce all damage, except psychic damage, inflicted on them by 4 instead of 2. This Command requires you to maintain Concentration.

Get Up: You command your allies to press on despite grievous injury. Choose an ally in range that has been reduced to 0 hit points. That ally is immediately stabilized and regains hit points equal to your Marshal Level. That ally then stands from prone without spending any movement.

Strategic Precision

All allies in range gain a +1 bonus to their attack rolls.

REST DOMAIN

Araam, the Architect of the Refuge in Irian, promotes healing, hope, and rest. He inspires and helps all who find their way to his monestary. Clerics of the Rest Domain draw upon the energy of Irian, and from his layers specifically. They seek to establish bastions of safety in danger, beacons of hope in the middle of despair. Priests who follow this path are often known for their wisdom, having advice for bany situation a parishioner might be going through.

QUICK REJUVENATION

You are able to provide a creature a deep, quick rest in the middle of combat. As an action, you can touch a willing creature other than yourself to instantly put them to sleep. Until the end of your next turn, they are unconscious and can't be woken up. At the end of your next turn, they wake up and are considered to have taken a short rest. In addition, they may select two of the following benefits:

• Recover expended spell slots of a combined level equal to or less than 5th level.
• Recover two uses of one ability, or one use of two abilities, that would normally be regained on a long rest.
• When they spend hit dice to heal front this short rest, you can use the maximum instead of rolling.

Once you use this effect, you can't use this feature again until you finish a long rest. You can not regain your use of this feature unless its through a long rest.

TEMPLES OF REST

Temples of Rest focus on providing a complete experience of rest for their visitors. Because of the nature of their service and their broad appeal in ideals, they appear in a wide range of cultures and faiths, leading to a vast array of temples all with different ways to provide rest. Bellow are some descriptions of what differences to consider when creating your own temple. There is also an example of a temple, Boldrei's Spring, that you can use if you want.

MIND, BODY, SPIRIT

Providing rest for these three aspects of the self is core to every Temple of Rest. Because of cultural differences, and differences in the faiths of those in service to the temple, the way this rest is provided can differ from temple to temple. A temple may employ a staff of trained magewright psychiatrists who use Calm Emotions to help parishioners with emotional turmoil. A temple with strong influence from The Silver Flame may preach about taking the time to properly rest, in order that when you do take action against evil, you can do so with everything within you. Temples in areas of high physical labor may provide a community sauna or bath house for people to relax their muscles after a hard day of work. What ever amenities are provided, priests in the temple like to blend spiritual lessons into their use.

BOLDREI'S SPRING

In a small town at the intersection of many trade routes lies a popular rest stop for travlers called Bodrei's Spring. This rest stop is also a Temple of Rest for the Goddess of Community and Society, Boldrei. The temple is built on a large hot springs that serves to provide relaxation for the body. For the spirit and the mind, the Temple seeks to build a sense of community with visitors. Bunk beds are provided in a large communal dorm for those passing through, and every evening group activities are offered for the locals and those staying at the temple. Events range from pickup games of team sports, to trivia nights, to discussions on topical issues.

MIND OF WAR

Your ferocity for battle is seen and felt by others. You gain a magical benefit based on the legion you selected at 2nd level.

Justice: Your control over your spells allows you to cover a wider range. As an action, you can expend a use of your wildshape to target a spell under the effect of your Divine Conscription feature, you can split the area of effect of that spell into two areas each half the size of the original. You can control both using your bonus action. You can't use this effect if one side of the area would be smaller then 5 feet.

Tyranny: When you make a melee weapon attack with a weapon benefiting from your Divine Conscription feature, you may expend a spell slot of up to 5th level. If you do, the attack gains a +1 to hit for each level of the spell and deal an extra 1d6 force damage per level of the spell slot if it hits. In addition, the creature you hit makes a Wisdom saving throw versus your Spell Save DC. For every level of the spell slot above 1st you may either increase this DC by 1, or target another creature within 10 feet of you. Any creature who fails this saving throw is under the effects of the Confusion spell until the end of their next turn.

CRITICAL MANEUVER

You become accustomed to the very nature of pain. No war is black and white though, and to reflect this conflict, pick from any option:

Justice: As a reaction to taking damage, you half the damage you would have taken. Once you use this ability, you must wait until you finish a long rest before you use it again.

Tyranny: As a reaction to dealing damage to a single target, you cause that target to become vulnerable to the damage it takes. Once you use this ability, you must wait until you finish a long rest before you use it again.

ASPECT OF WAR

You fully embody an aspect of the plane of war based on the legion you choose at 2nd level.

Justice: Your mastery of the battlefield leaves no escape route. You know the Blade Barrier spell. In addition, your Divine Conscription feature now extends to spells that create walls. As a bonus action, you can move any wall you created through a spell, as long as no portion of the wall moves more then 20 feet or into another creature's space.

Tyranny: You become a typhoon of death, bringing dread to your enemies. As part of expending a use of your wildshape for any reason, you conjure a whirlwind of blades that attack adjacent enemies. Until the feature or ability using your wildshape ends, creatures of your choice that enter, or start their turn, within 5 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw vs your Spell Save DC or take 2d6 force damage, or half on a success. If a creature fails this saving throw, and was under the effects of the confusion spell from your Mind of War feature, that effect is extended to the end of the creatures next turn.

SPEAKERS OF

THE LEGIONS

The Speakers of the Legions have unique connections with the legions of their namesake in Shavarath. They act as voices for the ideals they represent, and provide wisdom to the leader and community at large. They act as a balance against the leader, and hold great sway over the community. Speakers are barred from becoming leaders, and vise versa, in order to keep the leadership, and therefore the planar energies, balanced. Good speakers exemplify their legion, but do not let it fully define them. They are the pillar of that legion's values in the community, and are often used as guideposts for people who hold that virtue in high regard. Speakers are chosen by their predecessors. A child who is sensed to be blessed by a particular Legion will be selected and trained in their philosophy, and the history of their community. There are two Speakers: The Speaker of Justice and the Speaker of Tyranny.

Chaos Warp

You can use your Channel Divinity to try to manipulate a spell being cast. As a reaction, you target a creature casting a spell within 60 feet. If the creature is casting a spell of 4th level or higher, make an ability check using your Charisma. The DC equals 10 + spell's level. If it is casting a spell of 3rd level or lower, you automatically succeed the role. On a success, the spell becomes Cure Wounds, but is still cast at the same level as the original spell. If the original spell had no target, Cure Wounds targets you.

SHIFTING FORTITUDE

You emanate an aura of shifting protection for you and allies within 10 feet. You and your allies can add your Charisma modifier to either your Strength and Dexterity saving throws, Constitution and Wisdom saving throws, or Intelligence and Charisma saving throws. This ability can let you add your Charisma modifier twice. After a short or long rest, you must choose a different option, which lasts until the end of your next short or long rest, but cannot choose one that you have previously chosen. Once all options have been chosen, you can then choose any option to start this cycle again.

CONTROL GRAVITY

You can manipulation over the laws of nature let you manipulate gravity to a greater extent then others. You can cast Reverse Gravity once without expending a spell slot. As an action on future turns, you can rotate the cylinder in any direction, and you can move the cylinder up to 30 feet in any direction to a point you can see. Once you cast the spell this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

Avatar of Chaos

You channel the chaos of Kythri around you, forcing everything to change. As a bonus action, you gain the following benefits for 1 minute:

• A sphere of confusion is created in a 30 foot sphere centered on yourself. Whenever creatures of your choice willingly enter the sphere, or start their turn in the sphere, they must make a Wisdom saving throw vs your spell save DC. On a failure, the creature must use the rest of its movement to immediately move in a random direction.
• Creatures of your choice within 15 feet of you can not attack the same creature two turns in a row, and can not cast a spell targeting or damaging the same creature two turns in a row.
