Path of the God Hand (5e Subclass)

Path of the God Hand

The God Hand.

Barbarian Subclass

Fabled artifacts of great power, the God Hands are living human arms. While they can be attached to any willing creature rather easily, removing them is a much harder process. One person is capable of possessing both arms, but unlocking the true power of both requires a great deal of mastery.

God or Demon

At 3rd level, when you rage, you unlock the power of the God Hand. Your unarmed strikes use a d4 for damage. While raging, the damage increases to a d8.

Quickened Strikes

At 6th level, while raging, if you take the attack action and only perform unarmed strikes, you can make an additional attack as part of that attack action. If you do, you can make an unarmed strike as a bonus action.

Roulette

At 10th level, you gain a maximum of 6 roulette points and you must select 8 roulette moves as listed in the Roulette Moves table, attributing each to a number between 2 and 9. As an action while you are raging, you may roll 1d10, taking the respective roulette move. On a 1, you must take a 0 Cost roulette move. On a 10, you may choose what move you use. Your Rage ends immediately after using a roulette move. You may triple a roulette move’s cost to use it while you are not raging.

When you reduce a CR 1 or higher creature to 0 hit points, you may attempt a DC 22 Strength saving throw with a bonus to the save equal to half the creature’s CR, rounded down. On a success, you gain 1d4-1 roulette points. CR 18 or greater creatures always grant 3 roulette points.

Double God Hand

At 14th level, you master both God Hands. You may use two roulette moves instead of one as an action. When doing so, you may use the same move twice or roll for both. When you roll to use a roulette move, you may choose what move you use on both a 1 and 10. Additionally, your maximum roulette points increases by 3.

Roulette Moves

Saving Throws. Some of your roulette moves require one or more targets to make a saving throw to resist their effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Roulette save DC = 15 + your Strength modifier

Name	Roulette Point Cost	Effect
Grovel	0	You fall prone, all creatures within 15 feet must succeed a Charisma saving throw or become stunned until the end of their next turn or until they take damage.
