Goomba (3.5e Class)

Goomba

Goomba

Goombas or the chestnut people are brown mushroom-like creatures with dark brown legs. They have bushy, black eyebrows and a pair of fangs sprouting from their lower jaw. They never use their fangs, though. They headbutt into an enemy to hurt them. Goombas are naturally peaceful creatures that love to wander through the nature and odd places of the Mushroom Kingdom. However, they are not the smartest creatures and often find themselves in troublesome scenarios.

Class Features

Weapon Proficiency: Goombas are not proficient with any weapons and only use their head and occasionally feet as means of attack.

'Class Defense: Goombas have a C column Defense bonus.

Headbutt: Goombas gained the Improved Unarmed Strike when attacking via their head. It does bludgeoning damage.

Spiked Helmet: Goombas' headbutts now do piercing damage and have a crit range of (18-20) and X3 multiplier.

Fast Movement: Goombas are surprisingly nimble creatures and through vigorous training get faster over time. Their base speed increases by 10ft at 4th level, another +5ft at 8th, and a final +5ft at 12th.

Goomba Sprout: Starting at level 5, Goombas can bud off a tiny basic clone of themselves. This Sprout works like a companion and is completely controlled by the parent Goomba. They are tiny in size, 20ft base speed, have half HP of parent, half Defense bonus of parent, share BAB of parent, does d4 headbutt damage, shares skills of parent, shares saves of parent. Goombas can Sprout additional clones increasing every 4 levels. If a Sprout dies, it takes a Goomba 24 hours to bud a replacement.

Grow Wings: Goombas sprout wings at level 6. These are awkward to begin with for a Goomba. They give +5 bonus to an Athletic check when attempting a jump and allow Goombas to glide.

Snap kick: Goombas learn to throw in an extra kick when they full-attack. During a Full Attack, Goombas get an extra attack at their highest BAB -2.

Improved Goomba Tactics: Goombas and their allies count as flanking an enemy as long as one Goomba and one ally are adjacent to the same enemy. This does not apply when an enemy is larger than 2 sizes above a Goomba.

Improved Goomba Sprouts: Goomba Sprouts now do d6 headbutt damage have a movement speed of 30ft.

Best Sprouts: Goomba Sprouts now do d8 damage, have 3/4 parents hp, 3/4 parent's Defense Bonus.
