Atomic Samurai (5e Subclass)

Atomic Samurai

Fighter Subclass

The Atomic Samurai wields the volatile and controlled power of atomic energy. With each strike, they harness devastating, radiant energy, bending space-time with precision, and using the flow of atomic particles to overwhelm their enemies. Their blade slices through reality itself, leaving enemies caught between the crackling force of pure destruction and the sharp edge of their sword.

Blade Of Emissions

When you choose this Martial Archetype at 3rd level, you learn three Atomic techniques. All techniques can only be used while you wield a Greatsword, Longsword or Shortsword. When the emission requires a saving throw to resist the effects, use your Atomic save DC, that equals 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus.

Using your Blade of Emissions feature require you to spend Atomic Charges. You have a number of Atomic Charges equal to twice your proficiency bonus. In addition, whenever you use Second Wind you regain one charge.

α-slash. As a Bonus Action, you channel atomic energy into your blade, releasing a shimmering arc of radiant power. This arc creates a 5-foot-wide line that travels 30 feet in a straight line. Creatures in the arc must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 1d6 radiant damage; on a successful save, they take half damage. A creature that fails the save is also poisoned until the end of your next turn.

β-streak. When you land a melee attack, you can use your reaction to flood the target with radiant energy. The target takes additional radiant damage equal to your Proficiency Bonus. The target must also make a Constitution saving throw at the end of each of its turns, or take additional radiant damage equal to your proficiency bonus, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Ύ-burst. As an action, you can release a concentrated burst of atomic energy in a 15-foot radius centered on you. Each creature in the area must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes radiant damage equal to a number of d6s equal to your proficiency bonus, or half as much on a successful save.

Split-Second Slash

Additionally at 3rd level, you can make quick and unexpected strikes against unprepared enemies. Once in each round, you can make an Opportunity Attack without using a reaction. You can't use this feature on a turn you have already used a reaction.

Quantum Displacement

At 7th level, you learn to manipulate the space around you. As a bonus action, you can make a melee attack with no target and immediately teleport up to 20 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or long rest. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus per long rest.

Atomic Precision

At 10th level, your precision with the blade is enhanced by your understanding of atomic forces. When you make an attack with a finesse melee weapon, you can roll an additional damage die and add it to the damage. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Dexterity modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses after a short or long rest.

Tachyon Cascade

At 15th level, your mastery over time and space reaches its peak. When you use your Action Surge, you can use one of your Atomic Techniques without requiring an action. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, and you regain expended uses after a long rest.

Demon Core Whirlwind

At 18th level, you unlock the ultimate atomic technique, the Demon Core Whirlwind. As an action, you unleash a devastating pulse of atomic energy in a 30-foot radius around you. Each creature within range must make a Constitution saving throw against your Atomic save DC.

Creatures that fail their saving throw take 60 radiant damage, reducing by 15 damage for each 10 feet of distance from the point of explosion.

You can spend Atomic Charges to increase the damage by 20 per charge spent. Once you use this feature, you can't do it again until you finish a long rest.
