This class explores a new concept of a dual character. Either playing two characters at once or playing with a friend who will play with you.

Daddy/Daughter

Ever want to play a character like a Big Daddy from Bioshock or like the Little Sister or Big Sister? Well this class duo will attempt at its base form.

A small pale elven female child sits playing when some abominations arrive for an easy meal. Frightened she calls out as they close in and ,before they can make a move against her, is retched back by a massive elven male before being shocked to death

A towering orc male is beaten to the ground by a hoard of bandits. As they begin to kick him while he's down one by one they begin to get pulled away in quick succession. He looks up at the slender orc female that helps him back up smiling the whole time

A warforged stands tall infront of a small changeling girl as she begins fixing him as he's in the middle of being pelted with arrows meant for her

Harvest (NT LS)

You can use your harvester to extract the ADAM from a corpse. You can only hold as much as the harvester capacity shown in the table. You can use a charge from the capacity to heal yourself a 1d8 or you can inject into your daddy to heal him 1d4 and give him temporary hp equal to 8-the 1d4 total. These temporary hit points can not stack. Additionally this healing ignores no magical immunities or resistances to being healed exp-constructs and undead. You can also split the charge to heal yourself a 1d4 and your daddy 1d4. You can harvest as an action, heal yourself as a bonus action and heal daddy or split as an action. At level 7 you can use 2 charges at once, 3 at level 13, and 4 at level 17.

Weep (NT LS)

If you can see the corpse of daddy at any time you are overcome with emotion and let out an ear piercing wail. Everyone in a 60 feet radius must make a WIS save versus a dc of 8+ charisma+ proficiency. Those who fail will not attack you and those who succeed can attack you but at disadvantage. This lasts for a minute and everyone must make the save every turn. You can not move during this time your eyes stuck on the corpse of your daddy. Every other turn you must make a concentration save against DC 12 or fall to your knees becoming prone effectively. You auto fail this save on the 8th turn this effect is active.

All enemies within 30 ft must make a WIS save vs a DC of 8+ strength+ proficiency or be frightened of you for the remainder of the ability. If you saw the killer of daughter when you let out the roar, regardless of distance, they must make the WIS save or be forced to move towards you and act as if under the compelled dual spell minus the attempt resave. Within the 30 feet they no longer are forced to move towards you. You however must move fully towards them and can not attack anything but them.
