Unarmored Defense

When you're not wearing an armor, your AC is equal to 10 + your Constitution modifier + your Strength or Dexterity modifier.

Martial Arts

You're a fighter, and you know how to hurt your enemy where it hurts most. At 1st level, your melee unarmed attacks deal 1d6 more damage, powering up to 1d8 at level 5 and 1d10 at level 10

Zenkai Boost

You're born for battle and whenever you fall, you come back stronger. If your HP falls below 0 and you manage to heal back at at least half your total HP, choose between Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, or Wisdom which permanently increases by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature. You can't make use of this feature more than once per long rest. Can't be gained more than your Prof. Bonus.

Saiyan Tail

As a Saiyan, you've had a tail since the moment you were born. The tail helps you balance your body well and makes your attacks more precise, but it is also one of your greatest weaknesses. Your tail has 1/4 of your max HP and is weak to Slashing damage. While you still have the tail, your attack rolls gain +1. If the HP of your tail is reduced to 0 the tail is cut off your body, and you lose your balance, making your Attack rolls gain Disadvantage and lose 3 points of Damage for 5 minutes. If your tail is grabbed, you will feel weak and powerless, your Attacks deal half damage until you break free from the grab. If someone tries to grab your tail, they must succeed a roll with DC = 15 + your Dexterity modifier, and while they're grabbing your tail, they can't move and one of their hands/arts is unable to attack. While you have your tail grabbed, you can still use the Defend action. If your tail has been cut off, it grows back in 2 days until your character is 18-21 years of age at which point it no longer regrows.

Great Ape

Your Saiyan tail is also used to unlock your primal power. You must have your saiyan tail for the following to take effect. Every full moon, if you look up at it, your body transforms into an Oozaru. You become a Giant Ape, as on page 323 of the Monster Manual, and must make an Intelligence or Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, you must attack the closest creature within 120 feet. Creatures must make a DC 18 Intelligence saving throw to learn that you need your tail to transform. Your tail has 1/4 of your maximum hit points and occupies one space of your choosing that you cover. If your tail is destroyed or the night ends, you revert to your normal state. You gain 1 Attack: Oozaru Beam (Recharge 5-6). You exhale a beam of Ki in a 60-foot line. Each creature in that area must make a DC 21 Dexterity saving throw, taking 63 (10d6) Force Damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Ki

At the 2nd level, you gain mastery over Ki, your life energy, that flows within your body. You learn how to manifest it and how to use it at your own advantage. Your Ki is equal to your Ki Points Chart plus Saiyan Warrior Class level + Strength modifier + Constitution modifier. When you attack, you can use ki to perform the following actions:

• Flurry of Blows (1 ki): Immediately after you take the Attack action on your turn, you can spend 1 ki point to make two unarmed strikes as a bonus action.
• Power Strike (2 ki): by concentrating your ki in your fists, you deal an additional 1d6 damage on your next attack. Powers up to 1d8 at level 7, 1d10 at level 11 and 1d12 at level 15. Can stack by multiplying the ki used.
• Extra Dash (2 ki): you gain 30 feet speed; you decide whether it's flying speed or normal speed
• Ki Shield (3 ki): your aura protects you from the next 2 attacks. For the first 2 times you take damage, that damage is reduced by 1d4. Powers up to 1d6 at level 6 and 1d8 at level 10. Can stack by multiplying the ki used.

You're Melee and Ranged Attacks count as Magical while you have at least 1 Ki.

Ki is also the source of your life force, so you have to make sure not to waste it. If your ki drops to 0, you fall prone to the ground unconscious. While unconscious you're unable to do anything and you regain 2 ki every turn. If you're unconscious because of this, getting healed makes you regain consciousness and you recover 1/5 of your total ki, rounded down (min 2). You regain all of your ki after a Short or Long Rest.

Flight

At the 2nd level, your control over ki lets you fly. When your turn starts, you can freely change your type of speed between normal and flying without the need of a bonus action, and you gain 15 feet of movement speed. When you levitate you have opponents on the ground have disadvantage on Melee attack rolls when attacking you. At the end of the turn, if you flew during this turn, you spend 1 ki.

Path to Power

At the 3rd level, you choose what you want to become, and what you want to evolve as. Choose between Low-Class, Royal, Legendary, or Inheiritor Saiyan Sub-Classes, detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 3rd, 5th, 8th, 10th, 13th.

Training

At 2nd level, you can take ten hours to train. This training must be all at once. After training, either your Strength, Dexterity, Wisdom, or Constitution increases by +1 for 24 hours. If you train again before the previous training bonus has worn off, you may redistribute the +1 and reset the time limit, but you can only benefit from one +1.

Ability Score Improvement

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.

Ki Sensory

At level 5th, you're now much more sensible to ki, and you start to "feel" the enemies instead of just seeing them. You now automatically sense all living creatures in a range of 60 feet from you, unless they're hiding their energy (if they're capable of doing so).

Ki Blast

While you have at least 1 ki you can attack with your very spirit. Make a Ranged Attack roll based on Wisdom that does 2d8 Radiant Damage. This damage increases to 3d8 at level 10, 4d8 at level 15 and 5d8 at level 20.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 6th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Super Saiyan

At level 7, you're eligible to become a Super Saiyan. Once unlocked, you can turn Super Saiyan at will, as a bonus action at the start of your turn, you can go back to normal state at any time too. While a Super Saiyan, your now fiery golden hair stands on end, your irises and pupils become a pale cyan, and you gain a visible ki aura. While transformed, you gain the following features:

Your Unarmed Strikes deal an additional +1 damage die. Your Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, and Wisdom increases by +2 as do their maximum. Your aura radiates bright light for 10 feet and dim light for another 10 feet. You and creatures within 20 feet of you have disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks. This transformation lasts until you dismiss it as a bonus action or ends automatically if you are reduced to 0 hit points or ki points or go unconscious.

Ki Charge

Starting at level 9, you now have better control over your ki and you know how to accumulate it faster. You can spend your action for the turn to charge up your ki, and recover 2d4 ki. Powers up to 2d6 at level 11th and 2d8 at 13th, 2d10 at 15th and 2d12 by level 17.

Saiyan Pride

Saiyan warriors are the toughest warriors in the universe, and they don't go down until they've drawn their last breath. Starting from level 18, whenever your HP would drop to 0, they don't, and you're instead left with 1 HP. Your HP can't go below one for the rest of the round. You can use this feature only once per long rest.

Ascended Saiyan

At level 20, you have now mastered many forms of Super Saiyans. The cost to maintain Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2 and Super Saiyan 3 are reduced by 3, and you gain one extra attack whenever you're transformed in one of these forms.

Golden Oozaru

At 20th level, you gain full access to your Oozaru power. You can benefit from both Oozaru and your Super Saiyan 3 form simultaneously. You have disadvantage on Wisdom saves to not attacking the closest creature while benefiting from both forms that must be made every Round. Golden Oozaru have a maximum Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution of 30. Succeeding in 3 Wisdom Saves in a row of this Transformation only allows you to unlock Super Saiyan 4.

You no longer return to your base form while unconscious. You gain 10 Ki.

Low-Class

Many Saiyan warriors are often lower-class Saiyans. Still, as members of a warrior race, they love to fight, often partaking in sparing matches with friends and seeking out enemies.

Meteor Combo

At 3rd level, you can deal a series of blows in quick succession. When you take the attack action using only unarmed attacks, you gain 1 additional attack in exchange for decreasing your damage die 1 tier until the beginning of your next turn.

Kamehameha

At 5th level, you learn the Kamehameha. This move takes one turn to charge and one Action to fire. Any type of movement while charging counts as though in Difficult Terrain. When Kamehameha is unleashed, it fires a massive blue ki wave 300ft long and 30ft wide in a straight line. Every creature in its path must make a Constitution saving throw. If they fail they take 4d10 radiant damage, but if they succeed they take half damage. Objects not being worn or carried, and structures, within the area take double this damage. You can charge for an additional round to increase the dice to 6d10 at 9th level (3 turns), 8d10 at 14th (4 turns), and finally 16d10 at 17th (5 turns). Costs Concetration (costs 3 ki points)

Spirit Bomb

At 8th level, you have mastered the Spirit Bomb. By calling on the Ki of every living thing, you can create a bomb on immense energy. For every round spent charging the bomb, it gains 2d10 force damage. You can gather and control energy up to double your Wisdom score Modifier times 2d10, afterwards you must make a DC 15 + (number of d10 above your maximum) Wisdom saving throw or have the bomb dissipate, loosing all the energy stored inside.

If you are attacked while controlling or charging the Spirit Bomb, you must make a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw to avoid loosing control of the Spirit Bomb. Loosing control of the Spirit Bomb while charging results in it dissipating as described above.

When you launch the Spirit Bomb, as an action, choose a point within 1000 feet of you. The Spirit Bomb has a radius of 20ft, plus an additional 10ft per charge after the first. If any part of the Spirit Bomb hits a corporeal object, including it's target, it explodes, dealing it's damage to all objects and creatures within a radius 100 feet greater than that of the spirit bomb's.

You may use this once, regaining use of this feature at the end of a long rest.

Martial Arts Genius

At 10th level, you have mastered hand-to-hand combat. On unarmed critical hits, instead of dealing additional damage, you can choose to knock the opponent prone, grapple them, or make a shove attack. When using Meteor Combo, if all other attacks hit, your last attack has advantage.

Spirit Saiyan

At 13th level, you can bring the Spirit Bomb into your very being. You must charge a Spirit Bomb for at least 2 rounds. Instead of launching it, you absorb it. Any d10 stored in said Spirit Bomb enter a pool. You can expend any amount of d10 to increase your unarmed, ki blast, or Kamehameha damage or to heal yourself or others. Your aura increases by an amount of feet equal to 5 x the number of d10 you have stored. You can store as many d10 as twice your Wisdom modifier +2, after which you must succeed a DC 15+the amount of additional d10 Wisdom saving throw or the energy dissipates. Using this feature does not use your use of Spirit Bomb.

You may use this feature once, regaining use at the end of a long rest.

Royal

Royal saiyans, as the name would imply, are saiyans or royal decent. They often view others as lesser warriors simply by not being royal, even other saiyans. They have been known to murder allies simply for underperforming in combat, and view others as either subjects or corpses.

Superior Reflexes

At 3rd level, your royal lineage tailors you to become the perfect warrior. You gain proficiency in the Athletics and Acrobatics skills. If you already have proficiency in these skills, your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make using these skills.

Galick Gun

At 5th level, you gain access to the Galick Gun, a beam that rivals the Kamehameha. It takes one turn to charge and a Bonus Action to fire. It fires in a 60ft long and 20ft wide line. Every creature in its path must make a Constitution saving throw. If they fail they take 4d10 radiant damage, but if they succeed, they take half damage. You can expend 1 additional ki to increase this damage by 2d10 at 9th and 11th level. Costs Concentration (costs 3 ki points).

Power Ball

At 8th level, you can create a Power Ball. This ball replicates the Blutz waves that a full moon emits, transforming any saiyans within 120 feet into an Oozaru. You have advantage on saving throws to resist attacking the closest creature. Otherwise, every creature within 120 feet has advantage on their first damage roll each turn. It stays at its point of origin and has 10 hit points. (Costs 6 ki points)

Big Bang Attack

At 10th level, you learn the Big Bang Attack. You fire a ki blast up to 120ft that deals 6d10 radiant damage. Every creature within a 30ft radius of the target is hit, decreasing damage by 1 die for every 5 feet away from the initial target they are. (Costs 10 ki points)

Final Flash

At 13th level, you can fire the Final Flash. It must charge for one turn. This attack fires out a massive ki blast that is 120ft long and 60ft wide. This attack leaves you with 1 Ki left. Every creature in range must make a Constitution saving throw. On a fail, they take 5d10+(ki spent x 2) radiant damage. On a success, they take half. This circumvents features that reduce all/half effects to half/none.

Legend

Once every 10,000 years, a legendary saiyan is born. These Saiyans have a massive pool of incredibly powerful ki. This ki is nigh uncontrollable, often causing them to go berserk.

Powerful Ki

Legendary Super Saiyan

At 14th level, your rage wreaths your Super Saiyan forms in green ki. As a bonus action, you can enhance the Super Saiyan form you are in for 1 ki. For every turn you use this enhanced form, you must spend 1 ki and must make 2 Wisdom saving throws at the beginning of your turn. If the first is a failure, you must spend +1 ki every turn to a maximum of +5. The second’s DC is your spell save DC+twice the amount of ki spent using this form. If it is a failure, your next attack must be against the closest creature. While in this form, you gain the following features:
