The Militant[edit]

Martial Subclass[edit]
- Maximize Defense
You are learning how to get the most out of maximum protection. Starting from when you choose this subclass at 3rd level, when you lack the defense fighting style and you are wearing ether a shield or heavy armor, your AC rises by 1. In addition, you may add half your shield's AC bonus to saving throws
- Maximize Body
You are in training to push your body beyond its limit. When you action surge, you gain an additional bonus action when you use action surge.
- Daunting
At 7th level, you gain proficiency with the Intimidation skill. If you are already proficient with the Intimidation skill, you instead gain proficiency in one skill from the fighter skill list. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any check you make that uses Intimidation. You gain this benefit regardless of which skill proficiency you gain from this feature.
- Gamble
Starting at 10th level, you can enter a special fighting stance on your turn as a bonus action. Until the start of your next turn, attack rolls against you have advantage if the attacker is within your reach. While in this fighting stance, when a creature within your reach attacks you, they provoke an opportunity attack from you, and when you make an opportunity attack provoked in such a manner, you do not need to use your reaction.
- Crowd Favorite
Starting at 15th level, you gain a bonus to your weapon damage rolls equal to your Charisma modifier.
- Finish Him!
Starting at 18th level, when you hit with a melee attack, you can choose to deal the maximum possible damage with that attack. For example, if you make an attack with a greatsword and choose to use this class feature, you would deal 12 damage plus modifiers, since the greatsword deals 2d6 damage. An attack that uses this class feature ignores resistances. Once you use this class feature, you can't use it again until you complete a short or long rest.
