Wild Master (5e Class)
From D&D Wiki
Wild Master[edit]
Wild masters are individuals who wander trough natural environments, learning how to adapt and ultimately gain control over the wild. Wild masters use their knowledge about wild places and honed instincts to enhance their combat abilities, communicate and bond with creatures on these environments, and some can even draw and use the primeval power, channeling it to their bodies and weapons.
Unparalleled Survivalists[edit]
Living in isolated areas alone for long periods of time make the Wild Masters know exactly where and how to find food, water and shelter in natural areas. Distance from the loudness of civilized places leaves space for their senses to increase in sensitivity, being honed like those of an animal.

- Animal Companion
Also at 3rd level, you learn to use your magic to create a powerful bond with a creature of the natural world.
With 8 hours of work and the expenditure of 50 gp worth of rare herbs and fine food, you call forth an animal from the wilderness to serve as your faithful companion. You normally select you companion from among the following animals: an ape, a black bear, a boar, a giant badger, a giant weasel, a mule, a panther, or a wolf. However, your DM might pick one of these animals for you, based on the surrounding terrain and on what types of creatures would logically be present in the area.
At the end of the 8 hours, your animal companion appears and gains all the benefits of your Companion’s Bond ability. You can have only one animal companion at a time.
If your animal companion is ever slain, the magical bond you share allows you to return it to life. With 8 hours of work and the expenditure of 25 gp worth of rare herbs and fine food, you call forth your companion’s spirit and use your magic to create a new body for it. You can return an animal companion to life in this manner even if you do not possess any part of its body.
If you use this ability to return a former animal companion to life while you have a current animal companion, your current companion leaves you and is replaced by the restored companion.
Your animal companion gains a variety of benefits while it is linked to you.
The animal companion loses its Multiattack action, if it has one.
The companion obeys your commands as best it can. It rolls for initiative like any other creature, but you determine its actions, decisions, attitudes, and so on. If you are incapacitated or absent, your companion acts on its own.
When using your Natural Explorer feature, you and your animal companion can both move stealthily at a normal pace.
Your animal companion has abilities and game statistics determined in part by your level. Your companion uses your proficiency bonus rather than its own. In addition to the areas where it normally uses its proficiency bonus, an animal companion also adds its proficiency bonus to its AC and to its damage rolls.
Your animal companion gains proficiency in two skills of your choice. It also becomes proficient with all saving throws.
For each level you gain after 3rd, your animal companion gains an additional hit die and increases its hit points accordingly.
Whenever you gain the Ability Score Improvement class feature, your companion’s abilities also improve. Your companion can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or it can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, your companion can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature unless its description specifies otherwise.

At 7th level, while your companion can see you, it has advantage on all saving throws.

At 17th level, you can cast Dominate Beast as a 4th-level spell once with this feature. If it fails the saving throw, it gains the features of your Animal Companion and serves you as a second Animal Companion. You regain the ability to use this feature when you finish a long rest. You can only have one beast controlled by this ability at the same time.
Tempest[edit]
Like the eye of a hurricane, the tempest is the peace in the middle of a storm of strikes and blades. Moving as a dancer in the battlefield, wielding pair of weapons and dual weapons, they twist and whirl while surrounded by opponents, leaving just destruction behind.
These wild masters embrace the solitude of the wild, using that calm to perfect their technique by following patterns of dance-like movement, mimicking the twists and turns of rivers and the sudden shifts of movement of the wind.

In addition, you can strike with the two ends of polearms. When you take the Attack action and attack with only a glaive, halberd, quarterstaff, or spear, you can use a bonus action to make a melee attack with the opposite end of the weapon. This attack uses the same ability modifier as the primary attack. The weapon’s damage die for this attack is a d4, and the attack deals bludgeoning damage.
Finally, while you are engaged in two-weapon fighting or wielding a glaive, halberd, pike, quarterstaff, or spear, other creatures provoke an opportunity attack from you when they enter your reach.

- Shadow Arts. You can cast Darkness, Invisibility, and Shadow Weapon each once with this feature, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. Wisdom is your spellcasting modifier for these spells.
- Shadow Meld. You can also use your action to meld with the darkness. This ability works as Meld into Stone, but allowing you to step on a place covered in darkness, with the same effect. It doesn't impose disadvantage on your Wisdom (Perception) checks when you do. The spell ends when the area is no longer covered in darkness. You take no damage while you are melding with the shadows, unless the damage is radiant. Damage radiant on the area causes 50 additional radiant damage to you and ends the spell.
