The Hero (5e Subclass)
The Hero[edit]
A warrior of legend with immense hidden power.
Hidden Power
Starting at 3rd level, if a friendly creature that you can see is knocked unconscious, you gain the following benefits for the next 10 minute:
- You regain half your total hit points (if this healing should exceed your total hit points add the excess as temporary hit points)
- Replenish your action surge
- Increase your strength, dexterity, constitution and charisma values by a value equal to half your fighter level, rounded up (this bonus ignores the maximum value possible for each stat)
- You gain resistance to all damage
After the 10 minutes expire you gain 1 level of exhaustion. You can only use this feature once, and may use it again when you finish a long rest. (This feature is optional due to the questionable balance of it, it is not intended to be a core part of the subclass but to potentially make for some cool moments. Due to the very low chance of this feature even coming into play, it is advised not to rely on it if it is used.)
Follow Will
The hero is a carismatic person, starting at 3rd level you can use Charisma instead of Force or Dexterity to your damage and hit rolls.
Slayer of Evil
Starting at 3rd level, when you attack a creature of an evil alignment you may add your Charisma modifier to the damage roll.
Valiant Protector
Starting at 7th level, if in the previous or current round an enemy has damaged an ally or yourself. You may add your Charisma modifier to attack rolls against this enemy.
A Hero's Weapon
Starting at 10th level, you are able to enchant a weapon with magical energy. This process takes 30 minutes. This weapon deals an additional 1d6 + your Charisma modifier Radiant damage. You can only enchant one weapon at a time.
Inward Strength
Starting at 15th level, when you use your Second Wind feature you replenish your Action Surge. Your second wind now also restores hit points equal to 1d10 + your Fighter level + your Charisma modifier.
Power Unleashed
Starting at 18th level, you gain the following benefits:
- You gain an additional extra attack
- Whenever you make a succesfull attack roll restore 2 hit points
- Gain an additional use of Second Wind
