Mask Collector

A man walks through a portal into another world, to try to find as many masks as he can, but a young child then steals his most dangerous mask, and threatens to destroy this other world.

Tunic

Numerous legends surround a young hylian fighter clad in a brightly-colored tunic who wielded a variety of particularly unusual weapons and techniques. According to these tales, this warrior was able to single-handedly defeat monstrous creatures on the tier of gods, supposedly even including Ganon itself. There are many who strive to emulate the esoteric combat style supposedly utilized by this legendary hero, whether he is mythical or not. Those who practice the hero's techniques do not always wear a tunic, but nonetheless they retain this title among their peers.

Tunic techniques are famous all across Hyrule. Source

Tunic Bonus Proficiencies

A tunic trains with unconventional weaponry and methods. At 2nd level, your esoteric training grants you proficiency with bombs, and one musical instrument or artisan’s tool of your choice.

Tunic Techniques

At 2nd level, you learn your choice of one of the following techniques. You can only learn a technique if your levels in this class equal or exceeds the number of stamina points needed to use the technique. (See the "Points" column in the following table.) You learn another technique at 3rd level. You learn two additional techniques of your choice at 7th level and 11th level. At 7th and 11th level, you can also replace one technique you know with a new one.

You can use a technique you have learned by expending the amount of stamina points listed for the relevant technique. Most techniques specify when they can be used. You can use different techniques as part of the same action or the same attack, such as using both Back Slice and Helm Splitter on a single weapon attack. You cannot use the same technique simultaneously, however, such as using Back Slice twice on a single weapon attack.

Technique	Points	Description
Back Slice	1	You can use this technique as part of a weapon attack before you make the attack roll. On a hit against an armored creature, the target’s armor (excluding magical armor, natural armor, or a shield) suffers a cumulative -1 penalty. Armor reduced to an AC of 10 (or 10 + Dexterity modifier) is destroyed. Regardless of what creature is hit, your attack still inflicts damage as normal.
Block Missiles	2	While you are wielding a shield and are damaged by a ranged weapon attack, you can use this technique as a reaction to reduce the damage by an amount equal to your Dexterity modifier plus your proficiency bonus. If your shield is a magic item, you can also reduce the damage of a ranged spell attack in the same way.
Dash Attack	2	When you use your action to Dash, you can use this technique as a bonus action to make one melee weapon attack or one shove attempt. If you moved at least 10 feet straight towards the target of your attack before making the attack roll or the Strength (Athletics) check, you gain advantage on it.
Distracting Strike	4	After you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can use this technique to distract it and give your allies an opening. The next attack roll against the target has advantage, if the attack is made by someone other than you before the start of your next turn.
Ending Blow	6	As an action, you can use this technique to make one weapon attack against a prone creature you can see within 10 feet of you. You don't make an attack roll; instead, you treat the d20 as if it had landed on 20.
Escape Artist	2	When you make a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check to avoid having your speed reduced, to avoid or end being grappled, or to avoid or end being restrained, you can use this technique to gain advantage on that check.
Feint	6	As a bonus action, you can feint against any creature within 5 feet of you. You have advantage on your next attack roll against that creature, if it is made before the end of your next turn.
Guardian Acorn	2	You can use this technique as part of taking the Dodge action. You gain resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage until the start of your next turn.
Helm Splitter	1	You can use this technique as part of a melee weapon attack you make against a creature. Regardless of whether or not you hit the target, you can move to any space within 5 feet of it without provoking an opportunity attack. You expend movement to move as normal, but you ignore any difficult terrain in your way.
Jump Attack	8	Once per turn, you can use this technique when you make a melee weapon attack as part of your Attack action. You add the weapon's damage dice to the attack a second time. These extra damage dice are not multiplied on a critical hit, but are maximized on a called shot.
Reflex	5	Immediately before you make a Dexterity saving throw, you can use this technique to gain advantage on that saving throw.
Riposte	5	When a creature misses you with its melee attack, you can use this technique as a reaction to make one melee attack against that creature.
Rock Breaker	2	You can use this technique when you hit with a weapon attack that deals bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage. Instead of that damage type, the weapon deals magical force damage. This damage is doubled against objects or structures.
Roll	1	As part of your movement, you can use this technique to increase your walking speed by 20 feet until the end of your turn. If you also use the Dash action, this increase doubles to 40 feet.
Shield Bash	2	You can use this technique to perform a shield bash in place of one attack you would make as part of your Attack action, but only if you are wielding a shield. Make a melee attack roll including your proficiency bonus against any creature within 5 feet of you. On a hit, you deal no damage, but the target cannot take reactions until the start of its next turn.
Spin Attack	4	You learn the spin attack spell. By using this technique as an action, you cast spin attack at its lowest level. If you have magic points, you can also cast spin attack normally.
Up Thrust	2	You can use this technique as part of a melee weapon attack made against a creature that is currently flying, or physically above you. The reach of your attack increases by 5 feet, and you gain advantage on the attack roll.
Vessel of Stamina	0	You do not actively use this technique. Instead, you add half your level (rounded down) to your stamina point maximum, and it increases accordingly with your level. (If you gain this technique, you cannot also gain the benefit of the feat named Vessel of Stamina.)
Will	6	Immediately before you make a Wisdom saving throw, you can use this technique to gain advantage on that saving throw.
Withdraw	2	You can use this technique as a bonus action. Once used, your movement does not provoke opportunity attacks for the rest of your turn.

Courage

Tunic methodology favors bravery and conviction. Starting from 7th level, you gain advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.

Heroic Technique

At 14th level you learn any one of the following techniques, which you can use as if it was a Tunic Technique. You learn one additional Heroic Technique of your choice at 17th level.

Technique	Points	Description
Hawkeye	8	You can use this technique as part of a weapon attack before you make the attack roll. You gain a +4 bonus on the attack roll.
Life	Varies	As an action, you can expend any amount of stamina points you have remaining. You or a creature you touch regains hit points equal to the stamina points you expended. If you have the Stamina Scroll feature, the target instead regains hit points equal to double the stamina points you expended. Any stamina points you expend on this technique cannot be regained until you finish a long rest.
Mortal Draw	10	To learn this technique, you must already know the Ending Blow technique. As an action, you can use this technique to perform an Ending Blow on any creature within 10 feet of you, regardless of whether or not it is prone. You do not need to see the target. You can draw or sheathe a weapon as part of using this technique. Immediately after you use this action, you are incapacitated until the start of your next turn.
Perfect Dodge	10	To learn this technique, you must already know the Riposte technique. You can use this technique as a bonus action to impose disadvantage on all attack rolls against you until the start of your next turn. The first time you use Riposte before the start of your next turn, you have advantage on the attack roll, and any hit from this Riposte is treated as a critical hit.
Triforce Slash	17	As an action, make one melee weapon attack against any creature or object as if your weapon had a reach of 30 feet. On a hit, you teleport to a space adjacent to that creature. Instead of your weapon's normal damage, you roll your attack's damage eight times and sum the damage against the target. (For example, if you are attacking with a shortsword and you have a Dexterity score of 14, your attack would deal 8d6+16 piercing damage.) This damage ignores any damage resistance or immunity. Once you hit with this technique, you must complete a long rest before you can use it again.
Whirlwind Spin Attack	17	To learn this technique, you must already know the Spin Attack technique. As a single action, you can use this technique to cast spin attack at its lowest level three times. You can move between any of these spin attacks as you would normally be able to move. On a turn you use this technique, your movement does not provoke opportunity attacks. At the end of this turn, you are stunned until the start of your next turn.

You can substitute learning a Heroic Technique to instead learn a normal Tunic Technique.

Spin Attack

While using a weapon, you can take the attack action and choose to attack all enemies within 10 feet of you, dealing your normal damage + bonus STRENGTH to each of them.
