Hamon Warrior[edit]
Feel the Beat of Your Hamon![edit]
The Ripple (波紋 Hamon), is an energy used in the ancient form of martial arts, Sendō (仙道, lit. "Way of The Hermit/Wizard"). Through self-controlled respiration, a trained person can produce an energy manifesting as ripples throughout the body that is identical to the energy of the sun; life energy.
Creating a Hamon Warrior[edit]

Why and how did you seek the means of harnessing the power of the sun? Was there someone in life you wanted to heal? Was there a particular vampire who haunts your memory to this day, and as such you seek a way to destroy the Stone Masks? Maybe a mysterious stranger trained you for a destiny you did not yet know. Did you train for years on a Tibetan mountain range, or were you forced to learn it at a breakneck pace in a race against time?

Hamon[edit]
At 1st level, you learn a form of breathing that maximizes the oxygenation and flow of your blood. You have a number of Hamon points equal to the amount listed in the Hamon column of the Hamon Warrior table. All Hamon points are regained at the end of a long rest. As an action, you may focus your breathing if you are able to breath, regaining 1 Hamon point. If a creature is Undead, they take 1d6 radiant damage for every Hamon point they have at the end of each of their turns. You also know a number of Techniques, all found at the end of this class, as listed in the Techniques column. You may change one Technique you know at the end of a long rest.
- Your Technique save DC = 8 + your Constitution modifier + your Proficiency bonus
- Your Technique spell attack bonus = your Constitution modifier + your Proficiency bonus
Martial Arts[edit]
At 2nd level, your training has gone beyond teaching Hamon, bolstering your physical strength as well. Your unarmed strikes deal 1d6 bludgeoning damage on a hit.
Hamon Defense[edit]
At 3rd level, your body has been greatly strengthened by the life energy you wield. While you have at least 1 Hamon point and are not wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to your melee attack and damage rolls and your AC.
Ability Score Improvement[edit]
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th 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.
Constant Overdrive[edit]
At 5th level, even a basic amount of Hamon in your body empowers you. While you have at least 1 Hamon point, your jump distances are doubled and your unarmed strikes deal radiant damage.
Calm Mind, Strong Body[edit]
At 6th level, your Hamon brings you further beyond the limits of a normal human. While you have at least 1 Hamon point and are not wearing armor, you gain an additional +1 bonus to your melee attack and damage rolls and your AC (+2 total).
Advanced Technique[edit]
At 7th level, your mastery of Sendo allows you to channel larger amounts of Hamon into faster techniques. When you use a Technique as an action, you may spend additional Hamon points equal to half its cost, to a minimum total cost of 2 and a maximum total cost of 8, to use it as a bonus action.
Constant Hamon[edit]
At 9th level, you are constantly engaged in Hamon breathing. You may regain 1 Hamon point as a bonus action.
Resistant[edit]
At 10th level, choose one of the following ability scores. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a saving throw of the chosen ability to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.
- Brawn - Strength
- Evasion - Dexterity
- Endurance - Constitution
- Discernment - Wisdom and Intelligence
- Repulsion - Charisma
At 18th level, you may select a second ability score to apply this feature to.
Uninhibited[edit]
At 11th level, your Hamon allows you to remain able to fight, even in situations that should kill you. While you have at least 1 Hamon point, you are immune to the incapacitated condition, you can speak while paralyzed or petrified, and you remain aware of your surroundings while petrified. When you drop to 0 hit points while you have at least 1 Hamon point, you become paralyzed instead of unconscious, but you can not spend Hamon points until you regain at least 1 hit point.
Imbued Body[edit]
At 13th level, you have mastered the art of breathing evenly no matter the situation, increasing the amount of life force within you, effectively slowing down your aging. Your maximum age is doubled and you have advantage on saving throws against gaining exhaustion from sources that are not creatures. When you complete a short rest, you regain twice as many hit points and lose 1 level of exhaustion. Furthermore, as a bonus action for 2 Hamon points, you may take the dash action and disengage action.
Extra Attack[edit]
At 14th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.
Radiant Combatant[edit]
At 15th level, harnessing Hamon is as simple as breathing. Using a Technique counts as an attack for the sake of any features that are based on attacks, such as Extra Attack.
Perfect Master[edit]
At 17th level, your Hamon can not be stopped. You have advantage on saving throws to resist being blinded, stunned, or poisoned. When you use your action to regain Hamon points, you instead regain 1d4 Hamon points.
Grandmaster[edit]
At 20th level, you have mastered Hamon as much as anyone ever could. When you use your action to regain Hamon points, you instead regain 4 Hamon points. Additionally, choose one Technique to master. When you use your mastered Technique, you must spend half as many Hamon points, rounded down. If you master Forced Hamon Breathing, you automatically succeed its saving throw.
