Barbarian

The Path of the Battlerager was originally published in the Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide, and is widely accepted as an underwhelming subclass for the Barbarian. The Alternate Battlerager presented here is an attempt to bring this Primal Path up to par with the other official barbarian subclasses.

The thrill and danger of battle ignite your fighting spirit. Once per turn when you make a Reckless Attack while Raging, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1). If any of these temporary hit points remain when your Rage ends, the immediately dissipate.

In addition, you can turn magical armor into Spiked Armor.

Your battle fury compels you to throw yourself into danger. You can take the Dash action as a bonus action while Raging.

When a creature hits you with a melee attack while you are Raging and wearing your Spiked Armor, it takes piercing damage equal to your Strength modifier.

If you are conscious, you can use your reaction to replace this damage with the damage from a Spiked Armor attack.

The savage warriors known as berserkers live for the chaos of battle. For these Barbarians, their Rage is a manifestation of their lust for violence and destruction. Often found on the front lines of battle, berserkers only feel fully alive when they are risking life and limb to test their might against their foes.

You give yourself over completely to your Rage. While Raging, you immune to the charmed and frightened conditions. If you are charmed or frightened when you enter a Rage, the effect is suspended for the duration of that Rage.

Moreover, while you are in a Frenzied Rage, you can ignore the effects of any levels of exhaustion you currently have.

Your menacing presence strikes fear into the hearts of your foes. As a bonus action, you can and force a creature within 30 feet that can see or hear you to make a Wisdom saving throw (DC equals 8 + your proficency bonus + your Strength modifier). On a failed save, the creature is frightened of you for one minute. It can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.

If a creature succeeds on its saving throw against this feature, it is immune to this effect for the next 24 hours.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to you Constitution modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all of your expended uses each time you finish a long rest.

You can draw on the spark of fury within you to restore your stamina. Each time you finish a short rest, you can choose to reduce your current level of exhaustion by 1.

Once you use this feature to reduce your exhaustion level you must finish a long rest before you can do so again.

Your fury knows no bounds. When you take damage from a creature you can see, you can use your reaction to make a single melee or thrown weapon attack against that creature. You can make this reaction attack as a Reckless Attack.

Barbarians are well known for tapping into primal powers, but only a few can tap into one of the most ancient and primeval of them all; the power of dragons.

Most notably, the types of dragons that cause such unyielding rage are the black, blue, green, red and white chromatic variants. Not all those with these ancestries are tended towards such violent and destructive outbursts, but all those that follow this path are indeed from these ancestries. Their chromatic heritage simply manifests itself far stronger than it does for others, which some scholars believe is connected to the fact that these five types of dragons make up the five heads of Tiamat. While chromatic dragons are not as renowned for walking among the mortal masses as their metallic cousins are, there have been those who started bloodlines that stretch back millennia. No matter how diluted this bloodline becomes, it can always manifest itself in any of its descendants, and when properly harnessed can become a force of reckoning. Due to their more volatile chromatic blood, those following this path tend toward chaos, as they contain potent destructive power that paces at the edges of the cage, just waiting to be unleashed. This however is not the norm, as there are those who have learned to control their impulses.

The zekyl, an elven subrace who were created through unions between drow and shadow dragons, are all able to tap into this primal path due to the chaotic influences of the Shadowfell. Their normally calm and calculated demeanor hides the dragon that lurks beneath, waiting to strike.

At 6th level, your Draconic Form grants you additional draconic aspects. When you enter a rage, if you gave in to your draconic fury, you gain a number of fury points equal to half your proficiency bonus (rounded down), and you gain the following benefits while raging:

Starting at 10th level, the marks of your draconic heritage no longer entirely fade when you are not raging. You gain scales which permanently grant you your Draconic Form's Resistance benefit.

Additionally, if you gave in to your draconic fury when you entered your rage, you can use a bonus action while raging to spend a number of fury points and breathe out a powerful blast of elemental energy. Creatures within a 15-foot cone must make a Dexterity saving throw. The DC of this saving throw is 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus. A creature takes 2d6 damage for each fury point you expended on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful one. The damage type is the same as the damage type of your chosen Dragon Color.

Similar to the racial breath weapons of half dragons and dragonborn, using this feature counts as attacking a hostile creature for the purpose of maintaining your rage.

Starting at 14th level, you rip and tear your opponents apart, violently and without mercy. Once on each of your turns, when one of your melee attacks reduces an object or creature's hit points to a number less than your Strength score, you instantly reduce it to 0 hit points. Additionally, you suffer none of the drawbacks of old age, you can't be aged magically, and your lifespan extends by 1000 years.

The unstoppable soldiers of wartorn battlegrounds, it is the duty of the Dreadnought to break enemy lines and raze entire cities. Each dreadnought wears a magitech helmet, a Berserker Helm, which, once donned, he never removes. Each is specially engineered for him, enchanted to make him fearless and to grant complete control over his terrible rage. The helmet is the locus of his emotion, or lack thereof.

To a Dreadnought, reality is simple: there are friends and enemies, good and evil, law and chaos. The rule above all: never remove your helm.

At 6th level, you are immune to being charmed or frightened.

Beginning at 10th level, when you use your action to Dash, you can use a bonus action to make one melee weapon attack or to shove a creature.

If you move at least 10 feet in a straight line immediately before taking this bonus action, you have advantage on this attack roll.

At 14th level, you can focus your rage into an unstoppable fury against 1 target. When you enter a rage, you can select 1 creature that you can see within 60 feet against whom your attacks deal twice the normal amount of rage damage.

Taking advantage of one's weakness is a crucial tactic in combat. These barbarians learn how to instill fear in their enemies and exploit their opponents' hesitation when facing a raging menace. The disregard and disdain these barbarians feel for those who fear them gives them an extra surge of power as if they would feed on the fear they create. Many of the Vordani war tribes use this tactic to overcome their foes.

Starting at 6th level, you can instill fear in the hearts of those you attack. As a bonus action, you can choose a creature that you have dealt damage to with a melee weapon during your turn. If the creature can see or hear you, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equals 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become frightened until the end of your next turn.

Starting at 10th level, you can take advantage of those who fear you. You gain advantage on melee attack rolls against frightened creatures and your melee weapon attacks score a critical hit against them on a roll of 19 or 20.

Starting at 14th level, the fear in the eyes of your enemies intensifies your combat prowess. As a bonus action, you can make a melee weapon attack against a frightened creature and your melee weapon attacks score a critical hit against them on a roll of 18, 19 or 20. On a critical hit, all hostile creatures within 30 feet who saw your critical hit must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equals 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become frightened until the end of your next turn.

For some barbarians, rage is a means to an end—that end being violence. The Path of the Berserker is a path of untrammeled fury, slick with blood. As you enter the berserker's rage, you thrill in the chaos of battle, heedless of your own health or well-being.

Beginning at 6th level, you can't be charmed or frightened while raging. If you are charmed or frightened when you enter your rage, the effect ends.

Beginning at 10th level, you can use your action to frighten someone with your menacing presence. When you do so, choose one creature that you can see within 30 feet of you. If the creature can see or hear you, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or be frightened of you for 1 minute. This effect ends if the creature starts its turn out of line of sight or more than 60 feet away from you.

If the creature succeeds on its saving throw, you can't use this feature on that creature again for 24 hours.

Starting at 14th level, when you take damage from a creature that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to make a melee weapon attack against that creature.

Some tribes of savage barbarians keep some of their offspring in an almost feral state, training them to harness their rage in combat. When these children are initiated to the wrath of otherworldly entities the tribes venerate, they are infused with aberrant flesh that quickly spreads in their bodies like a parasite. These barbaric warriors learn a primitive way to graft their bodies to enhance themselves further with mutations that allow them to grow in power.

Starting at 6th level, you can telepathically project your rage into the mind of your enemies, causing them spasms that shake their will. As a bonus action, you can expend one use of your Rage feature to assault the mind of a target creature. The target creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equals 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Constitution modifier) or become charmed. A creature charmed this way has disadvantage on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws for 1 minute. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make another Wisdom saving throw. On a success, the effect ends on the target.

Starting at 10th level, your bodily mutations become so severe and bizarre that your physiology is no longer similar to that of your original race. You become immune to critical hits and diseases. Extra eyes give you advantage on Wisdom (Perception) skill checks that rely on sight, and you gain darkvision to a range of 120 feet. You are also considered an aberration type creature for the purposes of determining effects but you otherwise retain your original creature type.

Starting at 14th level, you sprout appendages in the form of two fully functional alien tentacles that spread disease. You gain additional tentacle limbs that you can use to manipulate objects within a reach of 5 feet. You are considered to be proficient with these tentacles when making unarmed attacks with them. You can attack with both tentacles as a bonus action. Each hit with a tentacle causes 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage + your Strength modifier. A creature hit by a tentacle must make a Constitution saving throw (DC equals 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Constitution modifier) or become diseased. A creature diseased this way gains disadvantage on its attack rolls and ability checks for 1 minute.

At 3rd level, a barbarian gains the Primal Path feature. The following option is available to a barbarian, in addition to those offered in the Player's Handbook and Xanthar's Guide to Everything.

Starting at 6th level, your knowledge of the hunt has attuned your own senses to let you know the hunter has become the hunted. You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks to spot hidden creatures. In addition, you can no longer be surprised.

Beginning at 10th level, your zeal for the hunt and combat have grown so intertwined, that you now sometimes seek to prolong them both.

Once per rage, you can attempt to hobble one of your opponents. When you land a melee weapon attack, your target must succeed on a Strength saving throw equal to 8 +your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier, or be knocked prone. In addition, its movement speed is halved until it receives magical healing, or finishes a long rest.

At 14th level, the viciousness of your rage has reached its pinnacle. While raging, your weapon attacks score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20. If your attacks already score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20 from another source, you instead score a critical hit on a roll of 18-20.

Some individuals are born with seemingly impossible strength, exhibiting rippling muscles even before they learn to speak or walk. Such men and women quickly learn that every good thing in this world may be obtained through the exercise of overwhelming might. Others may scorn them and call them "barbaric,"but what are words but useless noise to be choked out of the speaker's windpipe? As one such individual, you know that strength is what determines one's worth in the world: strength to crush your enemies—and to impress your allies. You savor the opportunity to show off your great strength, whether it be in battle or in friendly competition. Your incredible strength allows you to accomplish Herculean feats that will leave your foes wailing in anguish.

Starting at 6th level, you leverage your immense strength when using ranged weapons. You can use heavy weapons without incurring disadvantage due to your size. Additionally, you may choose to use your Strength modifier for attack and damage rolls with longbows. When you make ranged attacks with longbows or thrown weapons while raging, you may add your rage damage bonus to the damage rolls.

Starting at 10th level, your rages take on legendary qualities and grow more powerful the longer they endure. At the beginning of each of your turns, if you are already raging, your rage damage bonus increases by +1, up to a maximum of your Strength modifier. Additionally, while raging, you are immune to poison damage and you cannot be frightened.

Starting at 14th level, your colossal strength causes the ground itself to tremble and quake. On your turn, you can use your action to strike the ground and create the effects of an earthquake with a 40 ft. radius, centered on your location. This area becomes difficult terrain.

Each creature on the ground in the affected area that is concentrating must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC of 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier. On a failed save, the creature's concentration is broken. At the end of your turn, each creature on the ground in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw with the same DC as the previous one. On a failed save, the creature is knocked prone. You have advantage on this saving throw.

At the beginning of each of your subsequent turns, you may use your bonus action to stomp the ground and continue the effects of the earthquake until the beginning of your next turn, for a maximum duration of 1 minute. Once you have used this feature, you may not use it again until you complete a long rest.

Once you have used this feature, you may not use it again until you complete a long rest.

You are a frontierman, hardened by your choice to live far beyond the outskirts of civilization in the rough wilderness. Though you rarely enjoy human contact, you are a skilled hunter and survivalist, and prefer to work and live alone.

At 6th level, you are adept at navigating the wilderness. You have advantage on Dexterity (Acrobatics) and Strength (Athletics) checks made to climb, jump, swim, or otherwise navigate natural terrain.

By 10th level, you can sound a blood-curling roar to terrify your foes. You begin a Fearsome Yell as a bonus action and can continue to yell as a bonus action on your turn, up to a duration of 1 minute. While doing a Fearsome Yell, each creature adjacent to you must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your bonus to Intimidation). On a failed save, the creature has disadvantage on attack rolls against you until the end of its turn. On a success, the effect ends for that creature and it is unaffected by this ability for 24 hours. At the end of each of its turns, affected creatures can make another Wisdom saving throw to end this effect. After beginning a yell, you cannot do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

You have advantage on Intimidation checks while you are making a yell.

At 14th level, you can shrug off punishment like a true son of the mountain. As an action while you are raging, you become immune to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage, and gain resistance to all other damage until the beginning of your next turn. After using this ability, you cannot do so again until you complete a short or long rest.

The Path of Blood is a path taken by only the most ruthless and battle-hungry barbarians. They do not care when they shed their own blood - in fact, they use that energy to empower their rage even farther, using their suffering to inflict wounds upon their foes through magical bonds of blood.

While at first glance the Path of Blood appears to be powered by the same forces as the Path of the Berserker, the Path of Blood is far more magical in nature. Bloodragers use their blood in a form of hemomancy - a magic that utilizes blood sacrifices.

(6th-level Path of Blood feature)

At 6th level, you gain the ability to smell the scent of the injured from up to a mile away, and accurately pinpoint the scent's direction. Once you get within 1000 feet of the source, you can make a DC 15 Wisdom (Perception) check to determine its exact identity. On a success, you know the exact identity of the creature if you have encountered it before; otherwise you only determine its type and the severity of its injury. Either way on a success, you know the exact distance and direction to the injured creature. On a failed check, you know that you failed the check and can't make another one for 1 hour.

(10th-level Path of Blood feature)

Starting at 10th level, touching spilled blood allows you to see the circumstances under which the blood was spilled. As an action, you can touch at least a drop of blood that has been spilled within the last 48 hours. For the next 12 seconds, you become blind and deaf to your own senses as your mind experiences the minute that led to that blood being spilled, from the point of view of the one whose blood was spilled.

(14th-level Path of Blood feature)

Beginning at 14th level, whenever a creature within 10 feet of you is reduced to 0 hit points while you're raging, you can use your reaction to move up to half your speed without provoking opportunity attacks, and make a single melee weapon attack.

As part of the same reaction, you may also spend a hit die to heal yourself. If you choose to do so, roll the die, add your Constitution modifier, and regain a number of hit points equal to the total (minimum of 1).

The Path of Blood teaches a barbarian to harness the innate power of blood, the essential conduit of life-force in mortal creatures. Such barbarians use their own blood, as well as the blood of their foes, to channel incredible destructive power. Deities and societies who partake in blood sacrifices often attract these barbarians.

At 6th level, the rituals of bleeding have toughened your body. When you roll a Hit Die to regain hit points, you use the highest number possible for the die.

Additionally, your hit point maximum can't be reduced.

At 10th level, you gain a keen sense for the presence of fresh blood, and the ability to seek out its source. You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks and Wisdom (Survival) checks to detect or track creatures that do not have all of their hit points.

In addition, you can pursue wounded enemies with fluid grace. When you hit a creature with an opportunity attack, you can move up to half your speed immediately after the attack and as part of the same reaction. This movement doesn't provoke opportunity attacks.

Starting at 14th level, you can absorb the power contained in the blood of your fallen foes. As an action, you can absorb the latent mystical power within the blood of a creature within 5 feet who has died within the last 10 minutes. You gain a different benefit based on the creature type of the corpse:

This benefit lasts for 24 hours or until you use this feature again. This feature doesn't work on corpses that lack blood, including those of constructs, elementals, oozes, plants, and undead.

Barbarians who walk the Path of Booming Magnificence strive to be as lions among their people: symbols of vitality, majesty, and courage. They serve at the vanguard, leading their allies at each charge and drawing their opponents' attention away from more vulnerable members of their group. As they grow more experienced, members of this path often take on roles as leaders or in other integral positions.

Starting at 6th level, when you enter your Rage, you can choose a number of allies that can see you equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1). Until the rage ends, when a chosen ally makes a melee weapon attack, the ally gains a bonus to the damage roll equal to the Rage Damage bonus you gain, as shown in the Rage Damage column of the Barbarian table. Once used, you can't use this feature again until you finish a long rest.

At 10th level, your roars can pierce the fog of fear. As a bonus action, you can unleash a mighty roar, ending the frightened condition on yourself and each creature of your choice within 60 feet of you and who can hear you. Each creature that ceases to be frightened gains 1d12 + your Charisma modifier (minimum +1) temporary hit points for 1 hour. Once used, you can't use this feature again until you finish a short or long rest.

At 14th level, you exult in your victories. When you hit with at least two attacks on the same turn, you can use a bonus action to unleash a victorious roar. One creature you can see within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw with a DC equal to:

On a failure, the creature takes psychic damage equal to your barbarian level and is frightened until the end of its next turn. On a success, it takes half the damage and isn't frightened.

While nonmagical, chardalyn—the crystalline substance created by the artifact Crenshinibon— easily accepts magic. By infusing their bodies with chardalyn, these barbarians gain the ability to harness and use the energy of spells used against them.

At 6th level, the chardalyn enables you to absorb the magical energy of spells. If you succeed on a saving throw against a spell cast upon you while you're raging, you can use your reaction to regain a number of hit points equal to the spell's level times your proficiency modifier once the spell's effects have been applied. You can use this ability only once per rage.

Further, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

At 10th level, you can absorb spells cast upon you and unleash them upon your foes. While raging, if you succeed on a saving throw against a spell that targets only you, you can absorb the spell as a reaction. The spell has no effect, other than to be absorbed. Before your rage ends, you can cast the absorbed spell using the slot level, spell save DC, spell attack bonus, and spellcasting ability of the original caster, but is otherwise treated as if you cast the spell. You can absorb a spell in this way once perrage, and the absorbed spell is lost if not cast before the end of the rage.

Upon reaching 14th level, you have mastered your bond with the chardalyn. You can use the Spell Absorption class feature twice per rage.

Also, the damage die for your unarmed strike increases to 1d10.

Barbarians who follow the Path of Fowlish Fury are fearsome fighters that draw their strength from the chaotic energy of the goose, and are known for their wild, erratic combat style and unwavering aggression, often terrifying and disorienting their opponents with vicious strikes, honks and hissing. These barbarians possess a strong sense of loyalty and protectiveness towards their allies, much like the way geese defend their young.

Your movements become more erratic and unpredictable, making it harder for enemies to land attacks on you. When you choose to attack recklessly, enemies don't get advantage on the first attack roll made against you each turn.

When a creature would hit you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction to emit a furious honk, adding your rage damage modifier to your AC against the incoming attack, potentially causing it to miss. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier. You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

You can enter a feathered frenzy when you rage. If you do so, for the duration of your rage, you sprout a set of flightless goose wings and become covered in a feathery plumage, taking on an intimidating, avian appearance. Your movement speed increases by 20 feet, and you gain a +2 bonus to AC. Additionally, when a creature you can see attacks a friendly creature within 10 feet of you, you can use your reaction and buffet your wings in their direction to impose disadvantage on the roll.

You can call upon the power of the flock to protect your allies in battle. When you enter a rage, you can choose a number of friendly creatures you can see within 30 feet of you equal to your Constitution modifier and have them join your flock. For the duration of your rage, members of your flock have resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing and slashing damage, and when a flock member within 10 feet of you misses with a weapon attack, you can use your reaction to emit an encouraging honk, allowing that member to make one additional weapon attack against the same target.

The barbarians of the Path of Heavy Metal do not do things by halves. They fight the strongest foes, swing the biggest axes, and play the loudest music. For this reason, any battle they get involved in tends to be noisy, violent, and short.

Armored only in face paint and studded belts, these fearless hellions are known for screaming their enemies into submission and trashing taverns, though they can also be thoughtful and erudite when not tapping into their primal fury. Away from the battlefield, the "thunderheads" form a tight fraternity, bonded together by absolute commitment to their path and the shared recognition that the life of an adventurer—with its grueling travel, explosive violence, and unfamiliar lodgings—is essentially a never-ending tour.

By 6th level, as a bonus action, you can release a thunderous battle cry, blood-curdling screech, or growl. Each Large or smaller creature you choose within 5 feet of you is pushed 5 feet away from you and is deafened until the end of your next turn.

Starting at 10th level, you put total commitment into your music. Whenever you make a Charisma check or any check that involves playing your instrument weapon, you can treat a d20 roll of 10 or lower as an 11.

By 14th level, you've learned that the best way to end a fight (and a performance) is to smash one of your instrument weapons entirely. When you hit a creature with your instrument weapon while you are raging, you can smash the weapon on the target, dealing an extra 4d12 damage. A nonmagical instrument weapon is completely destroyed, whereas a magical instrument weapon loses its musical components and becomes a normal weapon.

Once you use this ability, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Devils have long been known to grant power to mortals as part of a pact or bargain. While this may take the form of unique magic or boons, those who follow the Path of Hellfire are gifted with command over the fires of the Lower Planes, which they channel for short periods to become powerful and furious fighting machines.

While some of these barbarians are enlisted to support the devils' interests as soldiers or enforcers, some escape their devilish fates, while others still are released after their term of service.

At 6th level, you can use your hellfire to punish enemies. If an ally you can see within 60 feet of you takes damage while you are raging, you can use your reaction to surround the attacker with hellfire, dealing fire damage equal to your proficiency bonus to it.

Starting at 10th level, when you enter your Rage, you can surround yourself with flames. This effect works like the fire shield spell, except you are surrounded with a warm shield only and it ends when your rage ends. Once used, you can't use this feature again until you finish a short or long rest.

At 14th level, while raging, you have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects, and if you take damage from a spell, you can use your reaction to gain temporary hit points to your barbarian level.

To barbarians who follow the Path of Infiltration, rage does not mean battle cries and violent screams. Instead, it means deafening silence and uncertain shadows. Drawing upon magic from the Shadowfell, these infiltrators breathe in sound and light and hold it within, suppressing it as they lay waste to enemies, doors, and any other barriers between them and their goal.

In the world of Ravnica, House Dimir makes ample use of these barbarians. In the Forgotten Realms, the Zhentarim includes such ranks. Thieves' guilds, cults, or noble houses might also recruit these silent terrors as thieves or assassins.

These powers are usually gained from dark rituals or curses. In either case, obtaining and using these powers is often painful, causing these barbarians to become partshadow and suffer—and make others suffer—in silence. At your option, you can pick from or roll on the Infiltration Barbarian Quirks table to create a quirk for your character.

Whenever you hit an object with an attack, the hit is a critical hit.

In addition, dim light doesn't impose disadvantage on your Wisdom (Perception) checks relying on sight.

While you're raging, you are under the effects of a nondetection spell, and whenever you would trigger an abjuration spell, such as by walking through the area of an alarm or glyph of warding, you can make a Constitution saving throw (DC 10 + the spell's level). On a successful save, the spell isn't triggered.

Additionally, while you benefit from your Danger Sense, the damage you take from traps is halved. This includes magical traps, such as the glyph of warding or symbol spells.

As an action on your turn, you can take on an incorporeal, shadowy form. Until the end of the turn, you can move through creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain. If you occupy the same spot as a solid object or creature when the turn ends, you are immediately shunted to the nearest unoccupied space and take 1d10 force damage for every 5 feet you are moved. If you take this action while raging, your rage doesn't end early at the end of the turn.

While many barbarians lose control when they rage, flying into wild tantrums, some operate in a state of cold absolute focus, becoming creatures of pure instinct and finely honed reflexes. Entering a void-like state of mind, they act almost without conscious thought, accomplishing superhuman feats and shrugging off hits.

Though utter calm might seem less frightening than the frothing rage of their counterparts, true terror sets in once their foes witness the destruction such perfect focus can bring.

At 6th level, your senses are so sharp that you gain an instinctive blindsight of 10 feet while raging. The range of this blindsight increases by 10 feet at 10th level (to 20 feet), and again at 14th level (to 30 feet).

Beginning at 10th level, you can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as an ancient red dragon's fiery breath or an ice storm spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.

Starting at 14th level, when a creature ends their turn within range of your blindsight while you are raging, you can expend one focus die as a reaction to move toward that creature (up to your movement speed). If you can reach the creature after your movement, you can make one weapon attack against them as part of this reaction. This movement does not trigger opportunity attacks.

Times have changed. Magic no longer belong to frail old robes. You as a barbarian can un-tap the true magic within your own body, muscles! Each flex generate enough heat and energy to burn the air around you. A swing of your fist can scorch your foes. Each leap can send you flying.

At level 6, your "Fly" ability increase in strength, just as you do. When you land using the "Fly" ability, you deal 2d12 + your Strength modifier fire damage in a 10 feet radius instead.

Sure you are burnt as well but what's important is that you taunt those wizards who don't dare cast fireball centered on self.

Starting at level 10, you recognize when a puny spell-caster is casting a spell. You can use your reaction to make a melee or ranged attack if they are within 60 feet of you. You can use any weapon for this attack against that creature, even if it lacks the thrown property. If you have a free hand you can pick up an throwable object as part of this reaction.

On a hit they take damage equal to your Strength modifier, if the spell level is equal or lower than the damage they took, they must make a concentration saving throw as if they are concentrating on a spell. On a failure, the spell fails and has no effect.

At level 14, 3 whole levels before spell-casters, you gain access to "Wish". However, magic is a pickle creature, it limits what you can wish for. You can use it in the following ways:

Once you used "Wish" you must take a long rest before using it again.

The first barbarians that traveled the path of mistwood were elves who expanded upon their natural gifts to become masters of the forests. Over time, members of other races who saw the need to protect and cherish the green places of the world joined and learned from them. Often these warriors haunt the woods alone, only seen when called to action by something that would despoil their home.

Beginning at 6th level, mist and fog don't hinder your vision. In addition, you can cast the misty step spell, and you can make one attack with a thrown weapon as part of the same bonus action immediately before or immediately after you cast the spell. You can cast this spell while raging. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Starting at 10th level, when you use the Attack action while raging, you can make one attack against each creature within 5 feet of you in place of one of your attacks. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Starting at 14th level, when you use your From the Mist feature to cast misty step, you can bring up to two willing creatures within 5 feet of you along with you, as long as each creature isn't carrying more than its carrying capacity. Attacks against you and any creatures you bring with you have disadvantage until the start of your next turn.

For most Barbarians, their rage manifests as a mystically empowered state of mind, but Barbarians of this path manifest their rage in a more profound and physical manner. Barbarians of the Path of Mutation embody their rage through terrifying mutation, transforming into hulking brutes.

The origin of their power varies, be it ancient blood awakening, consumption of an alchemical substance, blessing of astral entities, or a past exposure to specific kinds of radiant damage. Regardless, the effects all embody a physical manifestation of a Barbarian's rage, granting them increased power, size, and durability. The form these manifestations take varies for each barbarian; some grow into towering monstrous humanoids, some take on draconic aspects, some channel their powers to become giant apes or other beasts, while others simply turn large and green.

Starting at 6th level, when you enter a rage, you can control your mutation to a small extent, granting you adaptive advantages against your enemies. When you enter a Rage, you gain two of the following benefits (each option can only be selected once):

Starting at 10th level, if you miss an attack roll or fail a Strength saving throw or ability check while raging, you can add your Strength modifier to your next attempt to accomplish the same thing during that rage (attack the same creature, break the same object, save against the same spell). Failing a saving throw persists your rage until the end of your next turn if it would normally end.

At 14th level, you gain the ability to exert the full force of your rage, unleashing a devastating attack. As an action while you are raging, you can attempt to make a single, massive, weapon attack, dealing normal weapon damage + 6d6 bonus damage of the same damage type and knocking the target Prone on hit. All other creatures besides yourself within 5 feet of where you hit the target take 1d6 + your Strength damage bludgeoning damage from the shock wave of the impact.

If this attack is made using a creature you are grappling with as a weapon (using an improvised weapon attack), the grappled creature takes the same 6d6 bonus damage as the target on hit, or half as much on a miss.

Barbarians of the Path of Nightmares believe that battles are fought by both flesh and mind, preying upon their enemies fears to gain the upper hand. Using a mixture of might and magic, these terrifying warriors embody their own worst nightmares to render their foes speechless and move unseen throughout the world.

Beginning at 6th level, you have resistance to psychic damage, and you can not be frightened while raging. If you are frightened when you enter your rage, the effect is suspended for the duration of the rage.

In addition, you do not need to sleep, and magic can not put you to sleep. To gain the benefits of a long rest, you can spend all 8 hours doing light activity, such as cleaning your equipment, reading, or keeping watch.

Starting at 10th level, you can cast the dream spell, without expending a spell slot or material components. When you do, the saving throw DC for the spell is equal to your Nightmare save DC. For the duration of the spell, you can change the target of the spell up to five times, visiting the dreams of each creature separately. The spell otherwise ends early once the messenger becomes monstrous, as normal. Once the messenger becomes monstrous to a creature, that creature can not be targeted by this spell again until 2 days have passed.

Once you have used this feature, you can not do so again until you finish a long rest.

By 14th level, your mastery over terror is unmatched. You can use an action to expend three uses of your Apparition feature to cast the fear spell, without expending a spell slot or material components, using your Nightmare save DC for the spell save DC. Further, when you cast invisibility on yourself, you can move through a space as narrow as 1 inch wide without squeezing. Your rage also does not stop you from casting or concentrating on the fear or invisibility spells when you expend uses of your Apparition feature to do so, nor can your rage end early as a result of not attacking a creature on the turn when you cast a spell in this way.

In addition, when you use your Apparition to teleport, the distance you can teleport increases to 30 feet.

Barbarians that walk the Path of Polarity instinctively channel the invisible raging forces deep within the molten core of every habitable planet: a powerful phenomenon that is capable of both drawing objects together and pulling them apart, known only as 'magnetism'.

6th-level Path of Polarity feature

You cause a magnetic aura to emanate from yourself or an ally that you can see while you rage. The aura extends 15 feet outwards in every direction, increasing to 30 feet once you reach 10th level in this class.

When a Charged creature enters this aura for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus) or suffer one of the following effects (your choice):

10th-level Path of Polarity feature

Your connection to the push and pull of the world enhances your senses, granting you these benefits:

These benefits can also be granted to any creatures of your choice within your magnetic aura.

14th-level Path of Polarity feature

You become capable of charging your very surroundings with the fury of magnetism, causing any objects most attuned to this force to move with a similar zeal.

When you enter your rage, you can cause metallic objects within your magnetic aura to come to life and move on command, using the same rules and restrictions as the animate objects spell, with the following differences:

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Barbarians who follow the Path of Shamanic Wrath carry a unique presence that is immediately palpable upon meeting them—a primal drive only found among those flawlessly in tune with their surroundings and nature. Though they draw on the same magic as druids, these barbarians command its power with authority rather than as a kindred spirit, relentlessly unleashing its fury upon those who would dare defy them.

At 6th level, you gain a special attack option you can use once on each of your turns. When you take the Attack action, you can cause a mass of crushing vines to magically extend from your arms in place of one of your attacks. The vines lash out at a target you choose within 30 feet of you.

This special attack is a melee weapon attack with which you are proficient. On a hit, the target takes bludgeoning damage equal to 1d6 + your Strength modifier, and it must succeed on a Strength saving throw against your spell save DC or be pulled to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you; a Huge or larger creature has advantage on this saving throw. If you are raging when you make this special attack, you can add your Rage Damage bonus to your spell save DC for the Strength saving throw. A friendly creature can choose to be hit by this attack. If it does so, it takes no damage from the vines and automatically fails its saving throw against the effect.

When you reach 10th level, you learn to harness the brutal power of untamed wilds. Whenever you score a critical hit with your Primal Lash or a spell attack, or whenever a creature rolls a 1 on its saving throw against a spell you cast that deals damage, that target takes extra damage equal to your proficiency bonus. If you're raging, the target instead takes extra damage equal to twice your proficiency bonus.

By the time you reach 14th level, your druidic magic has become perfectly in tune with your primal fury. You gain the following benefits:

Barbarians that tread the Path of Stone contain the fury of a tectonic force: slow to stir, but impossible to stop once begun. Stones crack beneath their feet, as they step with the weight of mountains, and their strikes carry the crushing might of an earthquake. These barbarians may draw their power from a primordial and earthen bond, or simply feel the deep, buried rage of the world itself. With every swing these warriors make, they remind their foes that nothing stands forever against the movements of the earth.

By 6th level, difficult terrain composed of earth or stone doesn't cost you extra movement. While you're raging, you also gain tremorsense out to a range of 15 feet.

By 10th level, you can call upon the earth to heed your command in the following two ways:

Starting at 14th level, whenever you take the Attack action while raging, you can forgo one of your attacks to strike the ground at your feet to emit a powerful tremor. Each other creature on the ground within 10 feet of you must make a Strength saving throw (save DC equals 8 + your Strength modifier + your proficiency bonus). A creature that fails the save is knocked prone and takes bludgeoning damage equal to 1d12 + your Strength modifier + your Rage Damage bonus.

There are whispers of barbarian tribes that possess otherworldly abilities, able to take on grotesque forms that defy the laws of the natural world. Some say these barbarians happened upon a long forgotten elder being, or they are the remains of a once knowledgeable cult driven mad by the things they discovered. Others say they are not native to the material plane at all but instead travelled here from the Far Realm millenia ago.

Regardless of their origin, these vile warriors often perform ancient and evil magic rituals of mutilation to transform their flesh. These actions warp both their bodies and minds in horrific ways that augment their already profound combat abilities.

Your dedication to the maddening forces of ancient evils has granted you a permanent benefit. Choose one of the following options.

Your body has been so heavily warped by eldritch forces that you have become hardened to that which would hinder lesser beings. You are immune to poison.

You have mastered ancient techniques and dark rituals to be able to truly become an unrecognisable shadow of your former self. As part of a long rest, you can spend 1 hour performing a ritual to transform yourself in one of the ways detailed below. The metamorphosis lasts until you use this feature again or until you finish a long rest.

There is a place beyond time, filled with malignant intelligence and ruinous intent. This is the Accursed Archive–the singular repository of all knowledge known to mortal men, populated with the darkest of secrets and the foulest of heresies. You managed to find a tome of these blighted mysteries and stepped through the door to nowhere that led to the Archive at some point in your past, yet your mind cracked under the weight of the knowledge contained within and the horrible vistas of forgotten power that stood just within your feeble mortal grasp. Now you have finally realized that the true source of your furious rage is both defiance and acceptance of the madness that lies within the Accursed Archive.

Starting at 6th level, your words seem to cut at the minds of those who listen even more horribly than before. You can cast dark secret once, and you recover this use whenever you enter a rage. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for this spell.

At 10th level, your hallucinations slowly enter reality, as the dark tendrils of the Silent One move at the corners of your vision. Whenever you enter a rage, you can choose to unleash the horrors that dwell within your mind upon the world. Choose a number of creatures within 30 feet of you equal to or less than your Charisma modifier. Each one is pulled to an open space within 5 feet of you, or the nearest available space, by massive tendrils that spawn from the air around you. Until the end of your turn, when the tendrils disappear, you cannot suffer disadvantage from any source on any check made to grapple one of these creatures.

At 14th level, you finally accept the things you learned within the Archive and realize that the ruinous secrets it unleashes upon the world are merely the statements of a truth that mankind has long dreaded to learn. The Silent Ones are not villains, but are guardians, destined to safeguard the universe from those who would exploit the foul heresies of the Accursed Archive, and so you begin your preparations to join their ranks.

Whenever you reduce a creature to 0 hit points, you can choose to allow a Silent One to lash out from within your skin, ensnaring another unwary soul and twisting their flesh from its good purpose. Choose a creature within 30 feet of you. The target must make a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check contested by your own Strength (Athletics) check. If the target fails, the tendril snares them and drags them into the closest open space near you, and the creature gains one level of exhaustion. A creature cannot be affected by this feature more than once per turn.

The rage of desperation is powerful. Poor life choices or miserable circumstances often push unwilling barbarians down the Path of the Addict, who suffer in their struggle to break free of their reliance on potent chemical substances.

Many of these barbarians use the chemical rush that accompanies ingestion to fuel their rages. Their drugs of choice further enhance their prowess, from powerful hallucinogens that give new insight into reality, opiates that inure them to deadly wounds, or frenzied bursts of impossible energy.

When you choose this path at 3rd level, the rush of chemical euphoria you experience while raging grants you additional benefits based on your drug of choice until your rage ends. When you finish a long rest, you can choose any two drugs from the list below. When you rage, you gain the benefits of one of your choices.

Starting at 6th level, you draw comfort from the rush you feel when a foreign substance enters your body. When you drink a potion, you regain hit points equal to your Constitution score.

You also gain proficiency in your choice of alchemist's supplies or poisoner's kits.

At 10th level, your desperation for a fix bends reality. If a creature within 15 feet of you would take acid or poison damage or suffer the effects of a poison, you can choose to suffer those effects instead. If an area of effect, such as the cloudkill or stinking cloud spells, would affect multiple creatures in this radius, you can protect each one with the same reaction. You suffer the effect, such as Constitution saving throws against taking damage, once for every creature you protect.

You can also learn the detect poison and disease spell, which you can cast as a ritual. Constitution is your spellcasting ability for this spell.

Also at 14th level, you gain the benefits of both choices you select with your Chemical Fury feature when you rage.

You have been unflinchingly exposed to the brutal violence people are capable of. Underneath the thin veneer of civility, rage and fury lurks within everyone, no matter how mild mannered they appear under normal circumstances. Given the right conditions, everyone is capable of becoming a monster. Including you.

You move in polite society as well as anyone else, and are possessed of a level of intellect unusual to other barbarians. Through careful study and alchemical experimentation, you have learned to tap into the primal beast inside you, and manifest it in physical ways.

You discover 3 more alchemical formulae, for a total of 6, and you can prepare two doses of each formulae you know when you finish a long rest. Additionally, when you enter a rage, you can consume up to two doses of different prepared alchemical formulae at once.

You may add your Intelligence modifier as a bonus to Constitution saving throws. Additionally, when you enter a rage, you can increase your size by one (Small to Medium, Medium to Large, etc). Mundane clothing or armor you are wearing is ruined in the transformation, unless specially made to accommodate your expanding bulk. Such clothing costs twice as much as normal. Magical equipment you wear resizes to your new form, but does not change in statistics.

When your rage ends, you and any magical equipment you wear revert to normal size.

You discover additional alchemical formulae equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum 1), for a total of 6 + your Intelligence modifier. Additionally, whenever you enter a rage, you can gain the effects of up to three alchemical formulae you have prepared.

Some barbarians hail from cultures that revere their ancestors. These tribes teach that the warriors of the past linger in the world as mighty spirits, who can guide and protect the living. When a barbarian who follows this path rages, the barbarian contacts the spirit world and calls on these guardian spirits for aid.

Barbarians who draw on their ancestral guardians can better fight to protect their tribes and their allies. In order to cement ties to their ancestral guardians, barbarians who follow this path cover themselves in elaborate tattoos that celebrate their ancestors' deeds. These tattoos tell sagas of victories against terrible monsters and other fearsome rivals.

Beginning at 6th level, the guardian spirits that aid you can provide supernatural protection to those you defend. If you are raging and another creature you can see within 30 feet of you takes damage, you can use your reaction to reduce that damage by 2d6.

When you reach certain levels in this class, you can reduce the damage by more: by 3d6 at 10th level and by 4d6 at 14th level.

At 10th level, you gain the ability to consult with your ancestral spirits. When you do so, you cast the augury or clairvoyance spell, without using a spell slot or material components. Rather than creating a spherical sensor, this use of clairvoyance invisibly summons one of your ancestral spirits to the chosen location. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

After you cast either spell in this way, you can't use this feature again until you finish a short or long rest.

At 14th level, your ancestral spirits grow powerful enough to retaliate. When you use your Spirit Shield to reduce the damage of an attack, the attacker takes an amount of force damage equal to the damage that your Spirit Shield prevents.

Known as Kuldjargh (literally "axe idiot") in Dwarvish, battleragers are dwarf followers of the gods of war and take the Path of the Battlerager. They specialize in wearing bulky, spiked armor and throwing themselves into combat, striking with their body itself and giving themselves over to the fury of battle.

Beginning at 6th level, when you use Reckless Attack while raging, you also gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1). They vanish if any of them are left when your rage ends.

Beginning at 10th level, you can take the Dash action as a bonus action while you are raging.

Starting at 14th level, when a creature within 5 feet of you hits you with a melee attack, the attacker takes 3 piercing damage if you are raging, aren't incapacitated, and are wearing spiked armor.

Barbarians who walk the Path of the Beast draw their rage from a bestial spark burning within their souls. That beast bursts forth in the throes of rage, physically transforming the barbarian.

Such a barbarian might be inhabited by a primal spirit or be descended from shape-shifters. You can choose the origin of your feral might or determine it by rolling on the Origin of the Beast table.

6th-level Path of the Beast feature

The feral power within you increases, causing the natural weapons of your Form of the Beast to count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

You can also alter your form to help you adapt to your surroundings. When you finish a short or long rest, choose one of the following benefits, which lasts until you finish your next short or long rest:

10th-level Path of the Beast feature

When you hit a creature with your natural weapons while you are raging, the beast within you can curse your target with rabid fury. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus) or suffer one of the following effects (your choice):

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

14th-level Path of the Beast feature

The beast within you grows so powerful that you can spread its ferocity to others and gain resilience from them joining your hunt. When you enter your rage, you can choose a number of other willing creatures you can see within 30 feet of you equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of one creature).

You gain 5 temporary hit points for each creature that accepts this feature. Until the rage ends, the chosen creatures can each use the following benefit once on each of their turns: when the creature hits a target with an attack roll and deals damage to it, the creature can roll a d6 and gain a bonus to the damage equal to the number rolled.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

For some barbarians, rage is a means to an end—that end being violence. The Path of the Berserker is a path of untrammeled fury, slick with blood. As you enter the berserker's rage, you thrill in the chaos of battle, heedless of your own health or well-being.

Beginning at 6th level, you can't be charmed or frightened while raging. If you are charmed or frightened when you enter your rage, the effect is suspended for the duration of the rage.

Beginning at 10th level, you can use your action to frighten someone with your menacing presence. When you do so, choose one creature that you can see within 30 feet of you. If the creature can see or hear you, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or be frightened of you until the end of your next turn. On subsequent turns, you can use your action to extend the duration of this effect on the frightened creature until the end of your next turn. This effect ends if the creature ends its turn out of line of sight or more than 60 feet away from you.

If the creature succeeds on its saving throw, you can't use this feature on that creature again for 24 hours.

Starting at 14th level, when you take damage from a creature that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to make a melee weapon attack against that creature.

Barbarians are notorious for being engines of destruction on the battlefield, and for none is this more an apt description than those that have chosen the Path of the Bladestorm. They are Barbarians whose rage is such a transcendent force that their very weapons are restless embodiments of their destructive wrath.

When a Path of the Bladestorm Barbarian walks onto a battlefield, those unprepared to withstand the rain of sharp steel ought to run away and hide until the storm passes. The ones who stay will have to face the winds of destruction and will soon be drenched by flying droplets of blood as the barbarian at the center of the maelstrom smashes, hacks and slashes at the strength of primal winds

Woe to the foe who would stand before the storm.

Starting at 6th level, when you throw a weapon while raging it becomes animated with your fury. A whirling weapon stays spinning where it was thrown until the end of your next turn, and automatically attacks the first hostile creature that ends its turn within 5 feet of it using the attack and damage modifiers used to throw it. A creature can only take damage from this feature once per turn (meaning can be attacked a second time if the first attack misses, but not if it hits).

Additionally, you can use your reaction to make an attack of opportunity with any weapon animated by this feature if a target moves out of its reach.

At 6th level, while raging, your rage suffuses any weapon within 20 feet of you that is not being worn or carried. As a bonus action, you can call one or more such weapons to your open hands.

Additionally, any blade you throw counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Beginning at 10th level, the winds around you are tied to your anger. You learn the manipulate wind spell. While you are raging, you can cast manipulate wind as a bonus action, and the range you can pick up weapons with Endless Blades increases to 60 feet.

Starting at 14th level, as an action when you are raging, you can start a Bladestorm. You can fling two light melee weapons you are carrying and whip any weapons already animated by Whirling Death into it. All creatures of your choice within 20 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw with a DC of 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier. On failure, they take 3d6 + your Strength modifier + your Rage bonus damage. The damage is increased by 1d6 for each Whirling Death weapon included (up to a maximum of +3d6). On success, a creature takes half as much damage.

On subsequent turns while raging, you can use your action to keep the Bladestorm going, forcing all creatures within 20 feet of you to make the save again. You can keep a Bladestorm going for a number of turns equal to your Strength modifier. You can use this feature once per rage. When a bladestorm ends, all included weapons fall to the ground around you.

Barbarians are notorious for being engines of destruction on the battlefield, and for none is this more an apt description than those that have chosen the Path of the Bladestorm. They are barbarians whose rage is such a transcendent force that their very weapons are restless embodiments of their destructive wrath.

Woe to the foe who would stand before the storm.

6th-level Path of the Bladestorm feature

Starting at 6th level, when you throw a weapon while raging it becomes animated with your fury. A whirling weapon stays spinning where it was thrown until the end of your next turn, and automatically attacks the first hostile creature that ends its turn within 5 feet of it. A creature can only take damage from this feature once per turn. You can use your reaction to make an attack of opportunity with any weapon animated by this feature if a target moves out of its reach.

6th-level Path of the Bladestorm feature

Additionally at 6th level, while raging your rage suffuses any weapon within 20 feet of you that is not being worn or carried. As a bonus action, you can call one or more such weapons to your open hands. Any blade you throw counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

10th-level Path of the Bladestorm feature

Beginning at 10th level, the winds around you are tied to your anger. You learn the spell gust. While you are raging, you can cast gust as a bonus action, and the range you can pick up weapons with Endless Blades increases to 60 feet.

14th-level Path of the Bladestorm feature

Starting at 14th level, as an action when you are raging, you can start a Bladestorm. You can fling out up two light melee weapons you are carrying and whip any weapons animated by Whirling Death into it. All creatures of your choosing within 20 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw with a DC of 8 + your proficiency modifier + your strength modifier. On failure, they take 1d6 damage for each blade that is part of the bladestorm (up to 4d6) + your Strength modifier + your rage bonus damage.

On subsequent turns while raging, you can use your action to keep the Bladestorm going, forcing all creatures within 20 feet to make the save again. You can keep a Bladestorm going for a number of turns equal to your Strength modifier. You can use this feature once per rage. When a bladestorm ends, all included weapons fall to the ground around you.

There are many cultures, particularly in the harsh outlands that many barbarians call home, that revere the power of the sun. Barbarians who follow the Path of the Blazing Sun take this reverence a step further, and learn to how to transform and harness this power. These barbarians transform their rage into a dazzling display of magic, where powerful flames leap from their weapons and their movement becomes impossible to track as they disappear in a flash of light only to reappear moments later, ready to strike down their foes with radiant energy.

Barbarians who draw on the power of the sun are versatile fighters, capable of clearing groups of enemies with ease. In a display of their reverence, these barbarians typically adorn themselves with tattoos and markings that represent the sun, and often adorn their clothing with these symbols as well.

Beginning at 6th level, the warm touch of the sun can invigorate you. When you take a short rest and spend the entire rest in sunlight, you regain an additional 1d6 hit points if you spent at least one hit die during the rest, and you regain 1 additional hit point for every hit die you spend. Also, you are provided with enough nourishment to sustain yourself for one day.

Also, you gain both the control flames cantrip and the light cantrip if you don't already have them. Your spellcasting ability for these spells is Constitution.

At 10th level, you learn to form the radiance and fire of your soul into a separate entity—a mighty steed. You can cast the phantom steed spell at-will, without expending a spell slot. For you, this spell summons a semi-transparent steed made from light and fire. The steed sheds bright light in a 10-foot radius, and dim light 10 feet beyond that.

At 14th level, when a creature within your weapon's reach hits you with an attack while you're raging, you can use your reaction to cause magical energy to streak towards your attacker. Choose fire or radiance. The creature must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC of 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier. It then suffers one of the following effects:

The Path of the Blighted is a path of unholy origin, traced back to the same origin of the Blights: the Gulthias Tree. By gaining power from this evil source, you can channel your rage to shift your physical form, becoming a monstrous abomination of vines and branches. While transformed, you engulf and constrict your enemies as you tear them apart.

Beginning at 6th level, your body is now able to become temporarily plantlike to hide from foes. As an action, you can camouflage yourself against the surface of a plant, such as the bark of a tree, a large bush, or an area of thick vines. When you do so, you make a Dexterity (Stealth) check with advantage, remaining camouflaged until you move or take an action.

At 10th level, you can cast the plant growth spell once with this feature, and you regain the ability to cast it this way once you finish a long rest.

Starting at 14th level, whenever you take damage from a creature within 5 feet of you while you're raging, you can use your reaction to release grasping vines at the attacker, attempting to grapple the target. This grapple does not require a free hand, and you can have 1 creature grappled with this feature at a time.

If you use your Blighted Transformation feature to constrict a creature you're grappling, you deal damage to both the creature you're grappling with Blighted Transformation as well as the creature you're grappling with Reactive Tendrils.

While any barbarian is a fearsome sight on the battlefield, few manage to inspire as much terror as those that follow the Path of the Blood Seeker. Mindless engines of destruction, these barbarians revel in the spilling of blood, uncaring whether it is an enemy's or their own.

Many believe that the blood seekers may have been one of the first barbarian paths bestowed upon the sentient races; their thirst for violence tapping into a primal hunting urge from our earliest roots. Barbarians that fuel their rage with blood lust become relentless, animalistic warriors in the way they tear their foes to shreds and then bask in the carnage they have created. Some even go so far as slicing their own flesh to quench their thirst; it is not uncommon to find them covered in intricate scar patterns of their own making or covered in paint made from their own blood.

Starting at 6th level, the sheer ferocity you display in battle imbues your own blood with the power to revitalise your allies. While raging, whenever you take slashing, piercing, or bludgeoning damage, all allies within 5 feet of you gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 0). This range increases to 10 feet when you reach 14th level in this class.

At 10th level, your senses become attuned to finding dying creatures. You may use your bonus action to become instantly aware of the distance and direction of all creatures within 60 feet of you that currently have less than half their maximum hit points.

You may use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain all expended uses after finishing a long rest.

When you reach 14th level, your lust for blood becomes so visceral that even the slightest hint of it is able to spur you into frenzied action. While raging, you may use your bonus action to move up to your speed in a straight line towards a creature that does not have all of their hit points. If you make a melee weapon attack against that creature directly after that movement, that attack has advantage.

Barbarians who dedicate themselves to the Path of the Bloodrager have offered their lifeblood up to an otherworldly being, who in return allows the adventurer to draw upon their magic and chaos to fuel their rage.

Because a patron's power is usually concentrated in a specific type of magic, but not all patrons can grant barbaric boons to those that serve them. The patron of a Bloodrager is often a being of intense chaos, wildness, or anger, so as to pass those attributes onto the barbarian. A Bloodrager can strike a bargain with the following otherworldly beings.

At 6th level, you learn to utilize your budding magic and combine it with your unbridled fury. You gain the following benefits:

By 10th level, your familiarity with magic has grown, developing beyond an instinctual reflex. You learn two ritual spells of your choice from the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spell list (the two spells needn't be from the same list). The spell must be 1st or 2nd level, and you can only cast these spells as rituals.

Additionally, while you rage, your melee weapon attacks count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

At 14th level, your patron grants you the boon of casting an additional spell from the Unleashed Potential Spells table below. You can cast this spell once without expending a spell slot or material components, and you can't cast it again until you finish a long rest. If this spell requires concentration, you may concentrate on it while you rage.

Some barbarians are compelled by their innate bloodlust to follow The Path of the Bloodrager. Bloodragers are perilous front line combatants that can devastate foes with a power linked to bloodshed. These barbarians, like berserkers, revel in violence and take little account for their well-being in battle. Wherever they can be found, Bloodragers fight until they can stand no longer.

At 6th level, whenever you spend a Bloodrage die or hit die to increase an attack's damage, you can channel your fury into a crippling blow. The target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC equals 8 + your Proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) or have its movement speed reduced by half until it succeeds on the saving throw. The creature can repeat this saving throw at the start of each of its turns.

At 10th level you gain the ability to smell blood in the air like a wild beast. You may use your action to learn the direction of any beast or humanoid below half of its maximum HP within five miles. You have advantage on Survival checks made to track creatures whose direction you know. You can track a scent for one hour, or until a wind of a moderate speed disperses the trail.

In addition, while raging, as a bonus action you can move up to your speed toward an enemy of your choice that you can see, or a creature whose direction you know from using this feature. You must end this movement closer to the creature than you started.

When you reach 14th level, your rage can push you beyond the limits of your mortal body.

Whenever you increase your damage with a Bloodrage die, you can choose to spend an additional Bloodrage die or expend a hit die in addition to a Bloodrage die.

If you spend 2 dice in this manner and use your Crippling Blow feature you can choose to forego gaining temporary hit points from 1 or 2 dice. If you forego the hit points from 2 dice and the creature fails its saving throw, its movement speed is instead reduced to 0 feet.

The link between barbarians and magic has always been tenuous, the act of putting oneself onto an unfettered rage clashing with the strict discipline needed to cast even the simplest of magics. There is one rare exception to this rule: when the blood of a sorcerer is introduced to a barbaric society, this can manifest in the form of a warrior who can use their magical powers to fuel their rage and beyond. These gifted few are called the Bloodragers.

At 6th level, you are fully acquainted with your magical abilities, both in and out of battle. You no longer need material components to cast spells unless they have a specified gold cost.

You also gain proficiency in one skill depending on your chosen bloodline, or double the proficiency bonus if you're already proficient in that skill.

At 10th level, you gain a spell from the Bloodline Spells list below depending on your chosen bloodline and add it to your known spells. When you enter a rage, you may use your action to cast this spell immediately without using a spell slot. If the spell requires concentration, you can concentrate on it while raging.

After you use this ability, you can't use it again until completing a long rest.

At 14th level, you are so in tune with the magic in your blood that you can alter the spells you cast with Metamagic, in a similar manner to a sorcerer. You gain one Metamagic option depending on your bloodline, and you also gain access to the Font of Magic feature.

You have 5 sorcery points you can use to fuel metamagic alterations to your spells. You regain all sorcery points on a long rest.

While most barbarians hail from the wild places of the world, you first discovered your rage in the underbelly of civilization. Your abilities stem from a combination of pure grit and street smarts. Prize fighters, gladiators, guild enforcers; brutes like you have existed since the earliest mortal settlements, and despite differences in social standing, creed, and culture, those who follow the Path of the Brute share one thing in common, they prefer to settle things with their fists.

Starting at 6th level, the power of your strikes sends your foes reeling. When you hit a creature with an unarmed strike, you can force it to make a Constitution saving throw. DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier. On a failed save, it is stunned until the start of your next turn.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Upon reaching 6th level, the rage within you has become so intense that while you are raging, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the sake of overcoming resistance and immunity to non-magical attacks and damage.

Once you have a hold of something it is nearly impossible for it to escape. At 10th level, you gain the following benefits:

Your grit and rage allow you to shrug off assaults that would devastate others. Starting at 14th level, when you are forced to make a saving throw, you roll a 1d6 and it to your roll. This bonus applies to death saving throws. If you roll above a 20 on a death saving throw with this feature, you immediately regain consciousness and can stand up with 1 hit point.

While most barbarians hail from the wild places of the world, brutes discovered their Rage in the underbelly of civilization. Their abilities stem from a combination of street smarts and pure grit. All those who follow this Path share one thing in common, they prefer to solve their problems with their fists.

Your powerful strikes send your foes reeling. While Raging, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purposes of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical damage.

In addition, when you hit a creature with an unarmed strike, you can force it to make a Constitution saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier). On a failure, it is stunned until the start of your next turn.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Once you have a hold of something it is nearly impossible for it to escape your grasp. You gain the following benefits:

You can shrug off physical blows that would devastate lesser warriors. When you make a Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, or death saving throw, you roll a d4 and add it to your roll.

Should you roll a 20 or higher on a death saving throw, you instantly regain consciousness and stand up with 1 hit point.

Finally, while Raging the damage die for your unarmed strikes becomes 1d8, or 1d10 if you have two free hands.

A barbarian that follows the Path of the Cannibal is truly a monster to behold. Only man-eaters, as they are called, hunt men for sport, and do it with such grisly intent. They believe that when they consume their foes' flesh, they destroy that creature's eternal soul and absorb part of its essence into their own. Of course, such beliefs are barbaric, by even the standards of most primitive cultures, but the ferocity of a man-eater is, regardless, known the world-over.

At 6th level, you can add twice your proficiency bonus to any ability check you make when hunting or tracking humanoid creatures. You can track humanoids while traveling at a fast pace, and you can move stealthily while traveling at a normal pace.

By 10th level, most people consider you more of a monster than a man. While you're raging, you can attempt to intimidate one creature within 5 feet of you as a bonus action. It must succeed a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your Charisma (Intimidation) modifier), or be frightened of you until the end of your next turn.

Once a creature makes a saving throw against this ability, you can't use it again on that creature for 24 hours.

At 14th level, whenever you reduce a creature to 0 hit points while raging, you can use your bonus action to devour its essence. Doing so cures you of any disease or curse afflicting you, removes all levels of exhaustion you may have, and also ends any of the following conditions affecting you: blinded, charmed, deafened, and poisoned.

Additionally, for the next minute, you have advantage on saving throws.

The creature you target with this ability can be restored to life only by means of a true resurrection or a wish spell.

Barbarians who walk the Path of the Carrion Raven wield the warrior spirit of a blood-soaked raven blessed with the gift of speech. This carrion bird aided Kentigern on his quest to slay Gormadraug so that the raven might feast on the heart of the Prismatic Wyrm. This path is popular among wanderers of the inhospitable wastes of Valika—yet most remain mistrusted outsiders, even among the hardened Valikan clans. They don't mind.

Barbarians who embody the Saga of the Carrion Raven prefer the company of beasts. This close proximity to animals grants them deeper insights into the raven's search for power and survival at any cost. To them, it's a high compliment. To other Valikans, it marks them as outsiders to be feared and kept away at spearpoint.

You gain proficiency in the Animal Handling skill. If you are already proficient in it, you gain proficiency in your choice of one the following skills instead: Athletics, Nature, or Survival.

In addition, you can cast speak with animals as a ritual.

When you enter your rage, creatures of your choice within 10 feet that can see you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your Martial Maneuvers save DC. On a failed saving throw, the creature is frightened of you until the end of its next turn.

When you deal damage to a creature with a weapon attack and roll the maximum result of one of the damage dice, you can spend 1 maneuver point to roll another die of the same type and add its result to the damage dealt by the attack. You can do this once per attack.

Even occasional greatness will destroy a man.

Cavelords are often drawn to the darker places of the world, making caverns, tunnels, and lairs their home. They choose to wander the deep places of the world, facing the terrifying foes others only hear about in legend and rumor. Many cavelords are masters of the Underdark, constantly moving through these underground tunnels in search of the foul creatures that live there. These Barbarians revel in the thrill that comes from hunting such dangerous and despicable foes, and though not many know they exist, their efforts often serve to protect those who live above from ever having to face the terrors that they fight on a daily basis.

6th-level Path of the Cavelord feature

When you make an attack using a stone as an improvised weapon, you treat the stone as a simple melee weapon with the thrown property. The stone has a normal range of 30 feet and a long range of 60 feet. On a hit, the stone deals bludgeoning damage equal to 1d12 + your Strength modifier. While raging, you can also add your proficiency bonus to the damage dealt.

The number of damage dice used with this weapon increases: at 11th level (2d12) and 17th level (3d12).

10th-level Path of the Cavelord feature

When you roll initiative while in darkness or heavy obscurement, you can add your Constitution modifier to the result of the roll.

Additionally, once on your first turn in combat, if you hit a creature that has not taken a turn yet, you deal damage to the creature as though it had taken a critical hit. If the hit was a critical hit, double the total amount of damage dealt from the attack.

14th-level Path of the Cavelord feature

While you are raging, you can use your reaction to gain immunity to bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage (your choice) until the end of that turn.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short rest or long rest, unless you use your bonus action to expend one of your uses of Rage to regain the use of this feature.

Some barbarians revere the celestial spirits that roam the lands and skies, and seek them out to be their guides and personal connection to the divine. A few barbarian clans have pre-established connections to celestial spirits, and for those clans taking this path is merely proving yourself worthy of that creature's power. For many barbarians, however, taking this path requires them to search far and wide for a celestial creature willing to let them become an avatar.

Most any celestial creature is capable of granting a barbarian this path. The most common among these are unicorns, couatls, and low-ranking angels, who accept righteous barbarians as their avatars—extensions of their power that help them carry out their divine will. For some barbarians that take this path, their rage becomes reminiscent of divine possession—in rage, their personality can take on some of the attributes of their celestial guide's personality.

At 6th level, you gain resistance to radiant and necrotic damage.

Additionally, once per rage you can use your bonus action to become momentarily incorporeal, as your body and all of your equipment appears to transform into brilliant starlight. For the next 10 feet of movement you make on your turn, you can move through other creatures and objects as if they weren't there, and your movement doesn't provoke opportunity attacks. If this movement ends and you're still inside an object or creature, you are transported to the nearest unoccupied space outside of it, and take 2d6 force damage.

At 10th level, you can cast the divination spell, but only as a ritual. The entity you are put in contact with for this spell is the celestial guide you chose when you selected this subclass.

Starting at 14th level, you can cause your rage to give off divine light. For the duration of your rage, bright light extends 15 feet from you in every direction, and dim light extends 15 feet beyond that. Creatures of your choice within the bright light gain resistance to radiant damage, necrotic damage, and one other damage type of your choice that isn't bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage. You choose the damage type whenever you activate your rage.

At the front of every great fighting force stands a Champion. These elite warriors are true masters of battle that stand as paragons of honorable combat and fair play. Often, they seek out the most powerful of their foes and look to swiftly end conflicts with honorable duels or athletic competitions.

You can use your Rage to fuel a single mighty blow. When you hit a creature with an attack while you are Raging, you can instantly end your Rage to turn the attack into a critical hit.

Once you use this feature you must finish a short or long rest before you can use your Rage to fuel a blow like this again.

You can regularly perform feats of athleticism that would be impossible for most mortals. Whenever you make a Strength or Constitution check, or calculate the distance you can jump, you add your Rage Damage bonus to your result.

The chaos and adrenaline of battle fuel your fighting spirit. Whenever you score a critical hit with a weapon attack, you instantly regain hit points hit points equal to your Rage Damage bonus + your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1).

You are a near-perfect specimen of physical vigor. You gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1 temporary hit point) at the start of each of your turns so long as you are not incapacitated.

Those that follow the Path of the Closed Fist have chosen to bring about their will with their own two hands. They are the ultimate masters of close quarters combat, armed or unarmed. They impose their will upon the battlefield, grabbing their foes and placing them where they wish. Many that follow this path believe that you only have a right to what you can keep from your enemies. A foe that can not escape their grip to fight weaker targets does not deserve to do so. In overcoming an obstacle these barbarians prove to themselves they are just and right.

Starting at 6th level, when you make a Strength (Athletics) check you can add double your proficiency bonus. This bonus does not apply if you already add double your proficiency bonus from another feature.

Starting at 6th level, your unarmed strikes and natural weapons count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to non-magical attacks and damage.

At 10th level, you swing around your grappled targets and smash them against walls, the ground, and other foes. When you have grappled a creature you may swing them like a flail. You may use any creatures you have grappled as a one-handed melee bludgeoning weapon that you are proficient in as long as you maintain the grapple. The weapon uses your Martial Arts die for damage rolls. When you hit with this weapon the grappled creature also takes damage as if the attack hit them as well. Use the same damage roll when calculating this damage.

At 14th level, when a creature within 5 feet of you attacks you and misses you can use your reaction to attempt to grapple or shove that creature. When a creature attempts to grapple you and you win the contest you can use your reaction to cause that creature to become grappled by you. When a creature attempts to shove you and you win the contest you may use your reaction to shove that creature.

The colossus, sometimes known as a war-hulk, is a barbarian of the front lines, hefting massive weapons and sweeping away smaller combatants in their fury. To a war-hulk, strength is the only attribute that matters. Cunning is for the weak; faith is for the weak; speed is for the weak. Victory is for the strong alone, and rage is the purest path to strength. This path is a favorite of goliaths and giants, who step easily into crushing smaller opponents.

At 6th level, your immense stature can block line of sight. Ranged effects drawing line of sight through your position treat targets behind you as if they have three-quarters cover. When you are raging, this becomes total cover.

At 10th level, you can throw massive boulders or other suitably large objects as weapons. Such weapons are considered two-handed, heavy, thrown weapons with a range of 30/60 feet. You have proficiency in such weapons. On a hit, a boulder deals 2d8 bludgeoning damage. You can only throw one boulder per turn.

At 14th level, your Strength score increases by 2 and your maximum for this score becomes 22. At 20th level, your Strength maximum becomes 26, rather than 24.

When you make a melee weapon attack while raging, the attack has reach if it did not have it before.

Blasting across the battlefield in a shell of fire and ice, barbarians who follow the path of the comet are blessed with tremendous speed and power. As with the celestial voyagers that pass overhead, so too do these warriors put on brilliant displays, engraved in the hearts and minds of those that witness them.

At 6th level, your speed empowers your ability to leap. While you are raging, your jump distance is tripled, and you do not take fall damage from a height of less than 100 feet.

At 10th level, the comet that surrounds you expands. At the start of your turn while you are raging, each creature within 5 feet of you takes 1d6 damage. The damage is the same type as your Coldfire Slam.

At 14th level, your charge is nigh unstoppable. When you take the Dash action, you can move through the spaces of Large or smaller creatures. Each creature you move through must make a Strength saving throw (DC = 8 + your Strength modifier + your proficiency bonus). On a failed save, they are knocked prone.

Each creature you move through must make a Strength saving throw (DC = 8 + your Strength modifier + your proficiency bonus). On a failed save, they are knocked prone.

Within the depths of the Astral Plane are the githyanki, psions who manifest their intellect and force of will to shape reality around them. Barbarians who follow the Path of the Cosmic Juggernaut manifest similar power. When they enter a rage, they enter an intensely focused state, channeling psychic energy and draw upon the Astral Plane to bend time and space itself.

The power of a Cosmic Juggernaut can physically manifest itself in different ways. At your option, you can pick from or roll on the Cosmic Juggernaut Barbarian Quirks table to create a quirk for your character.

You can transmute the terrain around you as you move to ease your passage. Moving through difficult terrain costs you no extra movement.

Moreover, you gain the ability to move along vertical surfaces and across liquids on your turn without falling during the move. While raging, you can remain standing on the surface or liquid, rather than falling at the end of your move.

Your strength of body grants you strength of mind. Whenever you are forced to make an Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma saving throw, you can use your reaction to make a Constitution saving throw against the effect instead.

You can use your action to strike the ground, distorting time and space around you. Each creature within 10 feet of you must make a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier) or be lifted 5 feet upwards and become stunned and suspended in the air until the end of your next turn. You can use this feature only once per rage, and your rage doesn't end early if you end a turn during which you use this feature.

For some adventurers, their internal reservoir of fearlessness and gallantry might border closer to foolhardiness. An intrepid do-gooder might take the first step down this path by complete accident, meddling in affairs they ought not and finding themselves unable to turn back. Their impromptu effectiveness in battle isn't due to anger but rather matching pluck, tenacity, or stubbornness to shrug off the worst the enemy has to offer.

These brawlers might not be as graceful as trained fighters, but they're guardians of the weak, and what they lack in polish they make up for in valor.

At 6th level, when you hit with an unarmed or improvised weapon attack while raging, roll 1d4 and add its total to the attack's damage. This feature increases in potency as you gain barbarian levels to 2d4 at 10th, and 3d4 at 14th level.

At 10th level, you seem to stumble upon the right clue, connection, or words, even when you have no idea what is going on. When you fail a Charisma, Intelligence, or Wisdom-based ability check, you expend a use of your rage to reroll the check with advantage.

At 14th level, whenever you make a Constitution saving throw to remain conscious because of your Relentless Rage feature, you can use one of the following Tenacious Heart options of your choice. You can use only one Tenacious Heart option per round and must decide before you make the roll.

Barbarians that walk the Path of the Curse harbor a malicious presence within their body, which fuels their rage. When these barbarians enter a state of fury, this curse takes control, and at this point nothing will stop them from annihilating everything around them. Some of these barbarians accept this curse as a gift, and others fight with their curse—forcing it to work in their favor.

You can choose the origin of your curse yourself or determine it by rolling on the following table.

At 6th level, your physical prowess is unmatched. Your jump height and distance is doubled, you deal double damage to objects and structures, and you count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity, the weight you can push, drag, or lift, as well the creatures you can grapple or shove.

Also starting at 6th level, your unarmed strikes and attacks with improvised weapons count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to non magical attacks and damage.

At 10th level, you can use your might in almost every situation. When you make an ability check or saving throw using an ability score other than Intelligence or Wisdom, you can add your Strength modifier to the result. You must choose to do so before the roll.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Strength modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Starting at 14th level, you know if the hit points of a creature you can see is less than your Strength Score. When such a creature's hit points fall below this threshold or you start your turn and can see such a creature, you can use your reaction to move up to half your speed and make a single melee attack with an unarmed strike or improvised weapon against them, provided your speed would allow you to do so. If the attack hits, the creature instantly drops to 0 hit points.

Some may find the limitations of the flesh suffocating, and wish to augment their physical might by tempering their bodies with metals to become more than a mere mortal. These are ones who walk the Path of the Cyborg, forgoing their original limbs for the power of cold iron and steel.

There are many ways a Barbarian can augment themselves, be it through a (possibly) experienced doctor/technician, via magical means, or by doing it by hand. Cyborgs cannot hide their body modifications, and may naturally intimidate others.

Starting at 6th level, you gain access to more cybernetic upgrades.

You gain up to 2 additional cybernetic enhancements from this list or the previous list.

Starting at 10th level, you gain access to more... extreme cybernetic upgrades.

You gain up to 2 additional cybernetic enhancements from this list or any previous list.

Starting at 14th level, you become the ultimate combination of technology and flesh.

You gain 1 cybernetic enhancement from this list or any previous list and 1 additional enhancement from a previous list.

Encounters with the great and terrible things that dwell deep beneath the waves often irreparably shatter the minds of the weak willed. However, some who live through these traumatic experiences with eldritch horrors awaken an otherworldly rage that is rarely experienced on the material plane.

Those who walk the Path of the Deep are mortals who have survived an experience with the unexplained depths and gained extraordinary, and often unsettling, eldritch abilities.

Your mind-altering experiences allow you to identify, and slip through, cracks in reality. Beginning at 6th level, you can use an action to magically teleport, along with any equipment you are wearing or carrying, up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. Immediately before or after teleporting, you can make one attack as part of ht same action. When you use this feature to teleport you do not provoke opportunity attacks.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you complete a long rest.

The strange eldritch power inside you allows your body to mutate further. Starting at 10th level, when you enter your rage, you manifest two additional appendages which last until the end of your rage. As a bonus action, you can cause your appendages to use your Otherworldly Grasp feature, or attempt to grapple a creature you can see within 15 feet. Your appendages can use the same, or different, features.

Starting at 14th level, when you use Reality Warp, you can choose to reveal a brief glimpse of the horrors beyond reality when you reappear. When you reappear, all creatures within 10 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier. On a failed save, creatures take 3d6 psychic damage and are frightened of you until the beginning of your next turn.

Encounters with the great and terrible things that dwell deep beneath the waves often irreparably shatter the minds of the weak willed. However, some who live through these traumatic experiences with eldritch horrors awaken an otherworldly Rage that is rarely experienced on the material plane.

Your mind-altering experiences allow you to identify, and slip through, the cracks in reality. As an action, you can teleport along with any equipment you are wearing or carrying, to an unoccupied space you can see within 30 feet. This does not provoke opportunity attacks. Immediately before or after you do so, you can make one attack as part of the same action.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all of your expended uses when you finish a long rest.

The otherworldly eldritch influence within your body truly reveals itself in your fury. When you Rage, you can manifest up to two eldritch appendages which last until the end of your Rage.

As a bonus action, you can cause both appendages to use Otherworldly Grasp, or try to grapple a creature you can see within 15 feet. Each appendage can target the same, or different, creatures. If they target the same creature, it the target disadvantage on its saving throw (Otherworldly Grasp) or ability check (grapple). Each appendage can use the same, or a different feature as part of the same bonus action.

When you travel through the cracks in reality, you can reveal the eldritch horrors beyond this world. When you use Reality Warp, you can force creatures within 10 feet of the point you appear to make a Wisdom saving throw (Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier). On a failed save, creatures take 2d8 psychic damage and are frightened of you until the start of your next turn. On a successful save, they take half as much psychic damage and aren't frightened.

Creatures that are immune to the frightened condition are immune to the effects of this feature, including any damage.

Encounters with the terrors of the deep can break the minds of the weak-willed, but some forge their trauma into weapons never seen above the waves. The barbarian who walks this path has survived such an encounter and has gained extraordinary abilities from the experience.

Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, you manifest an extra appendage when you enter your rage. This weapon can appear as a kraken tentacle, a giant anchor, preternatural jaws, or something else based on your history.

As a bonus action, you can use this appendage to strike at one creature of your choice that you can see within 15 feet. The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) or be pulled up to 10 feet in a straight line towards you.

Beginning at 6th level, you can burst into water then materialize somewhere else as an action. You magically teleport along with any equipment you are wearing or carrying, up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. Before or after teleporting, you can make one attack, as part of your action. Moving in this way does not provoke opportunity attacks.

At 10th level, you can manifest additional adaptations of the deep. Select one of the below adaptations you manifest, during a long rest you may replace your chosen manifestation with a new option from this list.

At 14th level, when you use your ghostwater dive ability, you can choose to appear with a wave of tidal force. When you appear all creatures within 10 feet of you must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save a creature takes 3d6 force damage and is knocked prone. On a successful save, a creature takes half damage and is not knocked prone.

Encounters with the terrors of the deep can break the minds of the weak-willed, but some forge their trauma into weapons never seen above the waves. The barbarian who walks this path has survived such an encounter and has gained extraordinary abilities from the experience.

Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, you manifest an extra appendage when you enter your rage. This weapon can appear as a kraken tentacle, a giant anchor, preternatural jaws, or something else based on your history.

As a bonus action, you can use this appendage to strike at one creature of your choice that you can see within 15 feet. The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) or be pulled up to 10 feet in a straight line towards you.

Beginning at 6th level, you can burst into water then materialize somewhere else as an action. You magically teleport along with any equipment you are wearing or carrying, up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. Before or after teleporting, you can make one attack, as part of your action. Moving in this way does not provoke opportunity attacks. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier until you take a short or long rest.

At 10th level, you can manifest additional adaptations of the deep. Select one of the below adaptations you manifest, during a long rest you may replace your chosen manifestation with a new option from this list:

At 14th level, when you use your ghostwater dive ability, you can choose to appear with a wave of tidal force. When you appear all creatures within 10 feet of you must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save a creature takes 3d6 force damage and is knocked prone. On a successful save, a creature takes half damage and is not knocked prone.

For some people, siegeball is just a game. For others, it is a way of life. For a select few, however, it is more than that: for the die-hards, siegeball is a religion. Every team's fanbase has a small hard core of super fanatics―people so utterly devoted to their team that they might fly into berserker rages after seeing them lose.

For a die-hard fan, the world is just one massive siegeball arena, which means that they are always ready for explosive, violent action, particularly against die-hard supporters of rival teams!

At 6th level, when you enter a rage, you can pick a fight with one creature you can see within 60 feet of you. For the duration of the rage, that creature has disadvantage on attack rolls against any target other than you.

At 10th level, as long as you are not wearing armor, you have advantage on any checks made to disguise yourself as a member of a hostile group.

Also at 10th level, as a bonus action when you hit a Medium or smaller creature while raging, you can strike its knees, halving its speed until the beginning of your next turn. Creatures that do not have knees or similar joints (or have more than two legs) are unaffected by this ability.

This attack does not add your Rage bonus damage to this attack.

By 14th level, it only takes you and a few other ultra-fans to start a riot. While raging, friendly creatures you choose within 5 feet of you can add your Rage bonus damage to their melee weapon attacks.

From time to time, there is born a child into which a seemingly unquellable temper takes residence. An existence occupied by strife and conflict lies before them, and if lacking a proper outlet for this anger, perhaps even a life of ruin.

It is the wise, or perhaps lucky individual born into such circumstance who takes a firm grasp upon their existential frustration and wrestles it into submission.

Contrasting greatly with the prototypical brutish ways of those who carry with them the moniker of Barbarian, an individual who chooses to follow the Path of the Disciplined is onw who seeks to control and refine the ferocity that lies within. To take this journey is to learn to subdue one's impluse to lash out in rage, and instead hone that anger into a more perfect, calculated fury.

Beginning at 6th level, your tempered will grants you the ability to channel your emotions into a limited set of preternatural abilities.

You gain the ability to cast the Calm Emotions spell at 2nd level, the Cause Fear spell at 2nd level, or the Blur spell at 2nd level. You can use this feature to cast twice from this list of spells per long rest. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

Beginning at 10th level, you are able to gain additional Discipline Charges provoked by the various hardships you encounter in conflict.

You gain 1 Discipline Charge each time one of the following occurs while you are not Raging:

Beginning at 10th level, when you enter a Rage and have at least 3 Discipline Charges, you can attempt to maintain concentration on a spell you are casting.

You must make a Wisdom ability check, the DC of which is equal to 10 + the level of the spell on which you are currently concentrating.

On a successful check, you maintain concentrationon the spell as you enter your Rage. On a failed check, you may either choose to expend a number of Discipline Charges equal to the spell's level in order to maintain concentration, or instead lose concentration of the spell upon entering your Rage.

You do not gain Additional Rage Bonuses of any Discipline Counters expended by this effect as you enter a Rage.

Beginning at 14th level, you gain proficiency in Wisdom saving throws.

Additionally, if you fail a saving throw while raging, you can expend 3 Discipline Charges and end your Rage immediately in order to instead succeed against that saving throw.

The Path of the Doomed Slayer is ultimately one of self-destruction, trod by Barbarians with an insatiable battle lust, those who have nothing left to lose, or even as an impossible redemption for an exile.

These warriors are fuelled by a perpetual torment and typically eschew weapons, fighting bare handed with bloody efficiency as they tear their way through their enemies.

At 6th level whenever you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with an unarmed strike while raging you gain temporary hit points equal to the damage dealt by the unarmed strike.

Additionally while raging, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

At 6th level, the damage die for this feature increases to a d6, or a d8 when you aren't wielding any weapons or a shield and you make the attack roll.

Starting at 10th level, while raging you can use your bonus action to move up to half your speed towards a hostile creature and make an unarmed strike against it (if it is in your reach).

Additionally when a creature hits you with a ranged attack, you can use your reaction to move up to half your speed towards the creature and make an unarmed strike against it (if it is in your reach).

Movement from this feature doesn't provoke opportunity attacks.

At 14th level you're able to destroy lesser foes with little effort and bestow terrible injuries onto others.

Once per turn, when you hit a creature with an unarmed strike while raging you can use a bonus action to force the creature to make a Constitution saving throw with a DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier.

On a failed save, the creature dies instantly in a burst of gore if its current hit points are less than your Strength score; otherwise you can choose one of the following effects, provided the target has an applicable location on its body (DM's discretion):

At the end of each of the creature's turns, it can make another Constitution saving throw. If it succeeds, the effect ends.

Barbarians tap into primal powers, and a Barbarian of this path taps into one of the most ancient and primeval of them all: the power of dragons.

Some say this path was born during the rage of dragons by mortals tapping into the primal rage as it washed across the world, others say that only those with latent dragon blood coursing through them can walk this path. What all can agree on is the result is a being to be feared.

As with most Barbarian, ones following this path tend toward chaos, as they contain potent destructive power that paces at the edges of the cage, just waiting to be unleashed. Some, particularly those rare individuals that channel metallic colors, may be exceptions to this tendency.

Starting at 6th level, once during a Rage, as an attack as part of the Attack action, you can unleash your rage into pure energy, exhaling a blast of elemental power. Creatures within 15 foot cone must make a Dexterity saving throw. The DC of this saving throw is 8 + your proficiency modifier + your Strength modifier. A creature takes 6d6 damage of the Elemental Type of your Dragon Color on a failed save.

The damage and range of this breath weapon increases at 10th level (to 8d6 in a 30 foot cone), at 14th level (10d6 in a 45 foot cone), and at 18th level (12d6 in a 60 foot cone).

Additionally at 6th level, the natural weapons you gain while raging now count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Starting at 10th level, the marks of your Draconic path now remain outside of your rage, manifesting as heavy scales that grant you resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from nonmagical sources even when you are not raging.

Additionally, you gain resistance to your dragon color's elemental type even when you are not raging.

By 14th level, when you enter a Rage, you can sprout massive dragon wings from your back. If you are not wearing heavy armor, you gain a flying speed equal to your movement speed

If you choose to manifest natural weapons and wings when you enter Rage, you can choose to entirely take on a draconic form while raging, becoming Large sized. When you take on a full draconic form, you choose whether your equipment falls to the ground in your space, merges into your new form, or is worn by it.

Few creatures embody the power and majesty of dragons. By walking the path of the dragon, you don't solely aspire to emulate these creatures—you seek to become one. The barbarians who follow this path often do so after surviving a dragon encounter or are raised in a culture that worships them. Dragons tend to have a mixed view of the barbarians who choose this path. Some dragons, in particular the metallic dragons, view such a transformation as a flattering act of admiration. Others may recognize or even fully embrace them as useful to their own ambitions. Still others view this path as embarrassing at best and insulting at worst, for what puny, two-legged creature can ever hope to come close to the natural ferocity of a dragon? When choosing this path, consider what experiences drove you to such a course. These experiences will help inform how you deal with the judgment of dragons you encounter in the world.

Starting at 6th level, if you fail a saving throw, you can choose to succeed instead. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest. When you reach 14th level in this class, you can use this feature twice between long rests.

At 10th level, you take on additional draconic features while raging. When you enter your Rage, choose one of the following aspects to manifest.

At 14th level, while raging, you can use an action to make a breath weapon attack. You exhale your breath in a 60-foot cone. Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw:

taking 12d8 damage of the type associated with your totem dragon on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

Barbarians are well known for tapping into primal powers, but only a few can tap into one of the most ancient and primeval of them all: The power of dragons.

Most notably, the type of dragon that causes such unyielding rage is that of the chromatic variant. Not all those with chromatic blood in their veins are tended towards such violent and destructive outbursts, but all those that follow this path do indeed share that ancestry: Their chromatic heritage simply manifests itself far stronger than it does for others.

While chromatic dragons are not as renowned for walking among the mortal masses as their metallic cousins are, there have been those that started bloodlines that stretch back millennia. No matter how diluted this bloodline becomes, it can always manifest itself in any of its descendants. And when properly harnessed can become a force of reckoning. Due to their more volatile chromatic blood, those following this path tend toward Chaos, as they contain potent destructive power that paces at the edges of the cage, just waiting to be unleashed. This however is not the norm, as there are those that have learned to control their impulses.

The zekyl, an elven subrace that was created through unions between drow and shadow dragons, are all able to tap into this primal path due to the chaotic influences of the shadowfell. Their normal calm and calculated demeanor hides the violent dragon that lurks beneath wating to strike.

At 6th level, your Draconic Form grants you additional draconic aspects. When you enter a rage, if you gave in to your draconic fury, you gain a number of fury points equal to half your proficiency bonus (rounded down), and you gain the following benefits while raging:

Starting at 10th level, the marks of your draconic heritage no longer entirely fade when you are not raging. You gain scales which permanently grants you your Draconic Form's Resistance benefit.

Additionally, if you gave in to your draconic fury when you entered your rage, you can use a bonus action while raging to spend a number of fury points and breathe out a powerful blast of elemental energy. Creatures within a 15-foot cone must make a Dexterity saving throw. The DC of this saving throw is 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus. A creature takes 2d6 damage for each fury point you expended on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful one. The damage type is the same as the damage type of your chosen Dragon Color.

Similar to the racial breath weapons of half dragons and dragonborn, using this feature counts as attacking a hostile creature for the purpose of maintaining your rage.

Starting at 14th level, you rip and tear your opponents apart, violently and without mercy. Once on each of your turns, when one of your melee attacks reduces an object or creature's hit points to a number less than your Strength score, you can instantly reduce it to 0 hit points. Additionally, you suffer none of the drawbacks of old age, you can't be aged magically, and your lifespan extends by 1000 years.

A dragons rage is not to be trifled with, those who follow the dragons path will gain strength beyond even their own comprehention.

Your Tail attack now deals 2d6+Str Blugeoning damage, and your bite now deals 2d8+str piercing and 2d4 elemental damage.

Starting at 10th level, When you rage you may choose up to 5 creatures within 30 ft of you, Each of them must succeed a DC 8 + Proficiency + Cha Wisdom saving throw or be frightened for 1 min.

At the end of each of its turns the creature can make another Wisdom Save to end the effect.

Your tail attack now deals 4d6+str Blugeoning damage and your bite now deals 2d10+str Piercing and 2d8 elemental damage.

Once per long rest you may use a breath attack that deals elemental damage, creatures in the range must succeed a breath DC save or take damage, or half as much on a successful one.

Tales whispered around campfires speak of fearsome warriors with the strength of dragons burning in their veins. There are few who walk the Path of the Dragonheart, for it is one of unparalleled presence on the battlefield. A unique bond forged with dragonkind fuels each dragonheart's rage, endowing these warriors with increased stamina and fortitude, as well as the ability to channel destructive energy through their weapons. The most stalwart dragonhearts even learn to share aspects of their bond with others.

The exact nature of these barbarians is shrouded in mystery. Some sources say that these men and women gain their abilities by slaying a dragon and eating its heart. Others claim that a dragon can share its strength with a worthy soul through a deep, spiritual bond. Still, more argue that the heart of a dragon literally beats in the chest of the warrior who follows this path.

At your option, you can pick from or roll on the Becoming a Dragonheart table to determine the nature of your character's bond.

You learn a ritual that allows you to share part of your dragon bond with another creature. You perform the ritual over the course of 1 hour, which can be done during a short rest. The creature must be within your reach throughout the ritual, at the conclusion of which you touch the creature and forge the bond. This bond lasts until you end it with an action, or until you use this feature to create a bond with a different creature.

While bonded to a creature and on the same plane of existence as it, you and the creature can telepathically communicate simple ideas and emotions with each other, and you always know the creature's direction and distance from you.

Moreover, whenever you gain temporary hit points from your Dragon Rage, you can grant the bonded creature the same number of temporary hit points, which last until your rage ends.

Finally, while you're raging, your rage doesn't end early if the bonded creature has attacked a hostile creature since your last turn or taken damage since then.

You assume some of the epic presence of dragonkind. You and any creature bound to you through your Soul Bond can't be frightened while you're raging. If you or the creature are frightened when you enter your rage, the fear is suspended for the duration of the rage.

You claim a piece of the legendary resilience for which dragons are known. If you fail a saving throw, you can choose to succeed instead.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again.

You are a merciless, destructive and unstoppable force. When it comes to fighting, you are at the forefront. A dreadnought generally approach combat in the most direct way possible, rarely carrying only one gun and leaving a path of devastation behind. In the midst of battle, you are capable to take a great deal of punishment while dealing out far more to any who dares to go against you.

At 6th level, you can use your reaction to distract opponents and convince them that you are the most dangerous target in the area. Choose one creature that you can see within 15 feet of you which is attacking one friendly creature. If the creature can see or hear you, it must succeed on a Charisma saving throw (DC equals to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or attack you instead.

At 10th level, while you're raging, any creature within 5 feet of you that's hostile to you have disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you or another character with this feature. A creature is immune to this effect if it can't see or hear you or if it can't be frightened.

At 14th level, when you have half or less hit points while raging, you can add your Rage Damage bonus to attack rolls.

Raging barbarians might find that their resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage while raging doesn't count for much when many of the basic weapons deal energy damage. Optionally, the GM can rule that barbarians instead have resistance to force, necrotic, and radiant damage while raging.

The unstoppable soldiers of wartorn battlegrounds, it is the duty of the dreadnought to break enemy lines and raze entire cities. Each dreadnought wears an advanced helmet, a Berserker Helm, which, once donned, is never removed. Each helm is specially engineered to make the dreadnought fearless and to grant them complete control over their terrible rage. The helmet is the locus of their emotion, or lack thereof.

To a dreadnought, reality is simple: there are friends and foes, good and evil, law and chaos. The rule above all: never remove your helm.

At 6th level, you have advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened. If you make this saving throw while you are raging, you can reroll one of the d20s once.

Beginning at 10th level, when you use your action to Dash, you can use a bonus action to make one melee weapon attack or to shove a creature.

At 14th level, you can focus your rage into an unstoppable fury against a single target. When you enter a rage, you can choose 1 creature that you can see within 60 feet. Your attacks deal twice the normal amount of rage damage to this target.

The Path of the Drowned is walked by those who fall into the dark depths of the sea and survive - cast ashore by shipwrecks, attacked by sea monsters, or tossed overboard during terrible storms. Most of these barbarians did not choose this fate. Instead, their all-consuming rage is the legacy of a prolonged brush with death. Some belong to tribes who venerate the power of the sea and willingly give themselves to the waves for a chance at such strength.

Falling somewhere between the living and the dead, barbarians who walk this path remember the rattling of chains and crashing waves when they rage. Their spectral powers control the battlefield around them as they drag their enemies into the cold and crushing depths to suffer their own grim fate.

Beginning at 6th level, you can cause your Spectral Chains to bind and harm your foes. When a creature fails its save against your chains, its speed is halved until the start of your next turn. In addition, the creature takes 1d6 cold damage.

When you reach certain levels in this class, the damage dealt by your chains increases: 2d6 at 10th level and 3d6 at 14th level.

At 10th level, your connection to the dead is strong enough to contact them directly. When you do so, you cast the speak with dead spell without using a spell slot or material components. Rather than speaking with the corpse's mouth, you see a spectral image of the creature as it was in life hovering above the body.

After you cast the spell in this way, you can't use this feature again until you finish a short or long rest.

Starting at 14th level, you can call upon the drowned to restrain the living with your chains. When you take damage from a creature that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to wrap that creature in Spectral Chains. The creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be restrained until the end of your next turn.

In a time long past, the power to command gravity was stolen and disseminated throughout the destitute underbelly of Luyarnha, much like the mythical theft of fire from the heavens. Within the ranks of the Forsaken, many have embraced the spatial magic as a tool of mass destruction, unleashing it upon beasts and mortals with a ruthlessness particular to those who have nothing to lose. Among them, the Earthbreakers stand imperious; barbarians with a natural affinity for the void, capable of leveling buildings in their rage, these living titans are coveted prizes. Many factions seek to bend their wills for their own ends, and if such control proves impossible, death is an all too frequent outcome.

Whether from innate talent, intense training, or cursed rituals, all Earthbreakers share the same path of destruction, crushing their foes and grinding them to dust. Earthbreakers thrive in the middle of the battlefield, where they break their enemies, drag their face on the pavement, and leave behind naught but a mess of blood and brain. It is pointless to hide from them, for they are capable of shattering the very foundations of the world to unearth their quarry. The power to reshape the world—to bend and break it at a whim—is one many desire, yet few master it like Earthbreakers do.

Starting at 6th level, the strength you wield is capable of toppling the arcane rules of the world. Your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity.

In addition, when you hit a physical barrier created by a spell with an unarmed strike, such as the effect of a wall of force or forcecage spell, or any other wall spell (such as wall of fire, gravity wall♰, or prismatic wall), you can make a Strength check (DC = 10 + the spell's level), rupturing the arcane and dispelling the spell on a success.

Also at 6th level, you increase your mastery over gravity. On each of your turns while raging, you can use a bonus action to create one of the following effects, using your Earthbreaker save DC. The range of these abilities, and the distance they move creatures, doubles at 14th level.

Beginning at 10th level, your unarmed strikes deal double damage to structures and you can ignore difficult terrain.

In addition, your crushing power seeps into all the aspects of your life. You can add your Constitution modifier to any Strength checks and Intimidation checks you make.

Once you reach 14th level, your blows can level the world. Once on each of your turns while you are raging, when you make a melee attack, you can fracture the world. On a hit, the target takes an extra 3d12 bludgeoning damage and is pushed up to 30 feet away from you. In addition, hit or miss, the area in a 90-foot cone in front of you breaks, as per the earthquake spell (save DC equals your Earthbreaker save DC), although the spell only lasts until the start of your next turn, doesn't require concentration, and can create only 1d4 fissures in the area.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Strength modifier, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.

He who controls his path controls the Underdark.

In the darkest depths of the Underdark reside fierce men and women who've savagely survived and claimed rule over the unrivaled dangers of this harsh underground caverns. Either there by choice, accident, or by the unfortunate event of being captured by mind flayer or drow slavers, to this reclusive monster-slaying machines, it is kill or be killed.

6th-level Path of the Exiled feature

You gain resistance against psychic damage and can add your Constitution modifier to saving throws that target your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma.

In addition, your ability scores can't be reduced by any means short of a wish spell.

10th-level Path of the Exiled feature

You can use a bonus action to taunt a creature within 30 feet of you that can hear and understand you. The creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) or be compelled to spend its next turn attacking only you.

If the creature succeeds on its saving throw, you can't use this feature on that creature again for 24 hours.

14th-level Path of the Exiled feature

You gain advantage on Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma saving throws, and if you succeed on a saving throw against being charmed, frightened, incapacitated, paralyzed, or stunned, you can deal 5d10 psychic damage to the creature that forced the saving throw.

In addition, if an ally within 30 feet of you fails their saving throw against the same magical effect you succeeded on, you can use your reaction to expend one use of your Rage to turn that ally's failure into a success.

Augment the Body with Volatile Serums

Barbarians following the Path of the Experiment supplement their rage with alchemical cocktails that surge in their bodies through syringes and tubes of copper, steel, and glass. These formulas enhance their ability to channel primal might, or perhaps—because of their rage—they are the only people who can survive the chemicals flooding their veins. A Barbarian may have created the implants and serums through their own experimentation, or they could have been subjected to the insidious work of others. Whatever the origin, it could have been well-intentioned and made to enhance or preserve the Barbarian's life, or it might have been an unhinged alchemical exploration.

The Experimental Implants table offers examples of different forms your implants can take.

Through continued experimentation or your natural adaptation to your implants, you can now activate one of the compound options below, in addition to a serum, when you enter your Rage or change your chosen serum. The chosen compound lasts for the duration of your Rage, or until you choose a new compound.

Your implants are now sensitive to your response to danger and flood you with stimulating chemicals. When you take damage, or when you are blinded, deafened, poisoned, or stunned, you can use your reaction to enter your rage before the damage or conditions are applied. When you enter your rage, you end any of those conditions on yourself, including any triggering conditions.

Additionally, while your rage is active, you have advantage on Constitution saving throws.

Your body focuses and combines the strength of your serums. When you activate an option of your Volatile Serum, you activate two options instead of one. Additionally, when a creature within 5 feet of you damages you with a melee attack while your rage is active, the creature takes 1d12 acid damage. A creature can take this damage only once per turn.

Some explorers search for mystical secrets, delving into the crumbling ruins of Xen'drik or climbing to the highest towers of Sharn. Some explorers venture into the frigid depths of the Frostfell or face the sandstorms of the Blade Desert in search of forgotten civilizations and ancient treasure. Whether driven by a thirst for gold, knowledge, or a love of a good challenge, the extreme explorer is an archetypal action hero, ready to face any challenge that Eberron can offer.

Rather than being driven by rage, an extreme explorer is guided by remarkable luck and fueled by pure adrenaline. Every extreme explorer is a unique individual, and background helps to define their story. The adventurous Morgrave scholar could be a sage, who's equally comfortable in a library or a jungle. A bold crypt raider might take the criminal background, reflecting a knack for dealing with traps and useful contacts when it comes to fencing recovered artifacts. An urchin born in Sharn has no interest in gold or glory, but has never met a tower that couldn't be climbed. Most of all, an extreme explorer is an adventurer, ever ready for the next challenge.

Starting at 6th level, as part of a short rest, you can spend 10 minutes insulating you or your equipment against the elements. You must have access to cloth, furs, paper, plants, and other naturally occurring materials to create your insulation.

Once you are insulated in this way, you gain resistance to cold or fire damage, and the choice you make allows you to tolerate temperatures as low as −50, or as high as 150, degrees Fahrenheit without any additional protection. You choose when you complete the short rest.

At 6th level, you can focus your adrenaline to greater effect. You gain the following benefits

At 10th level, your enthusiasm for reaching untrod ground emboldens your ability to traverse gaps and untoward obstacles with uncanny ease.

Climbing and swimming no longer costs you extra movement, and your speed increases by 10 feet while you are not wearing heavy armor.

At 14th level, while you have both hands open, you gain the ability to move along vertical surfaces on your turn without falling during the move.

At 14th level, when you roll a Hit Die to fuel one of your Extreme Explorer features, and the number is less than your proficiency bonus, you don't expend the Hit Die after you add the number to your roll.

For most Barbarians, their Rage is drawn from their lust for battle or a desire for revenge, but for others, their Rage is a gift. Warriors who walk the Path of the Favored receive their Rage from an outside source. Some are blessed by Fate to be mighty warriors, others are the scions of gods or archfey, and others are the descendants of legendary adventurers. These warriors use this favor to find success where all others fail.

Your near-supernatural ability to succeed motivates all who follow you into battle. When you Rage, you can expend a Fate Die. You, and a number of creatures of your choice within 30 feet, up to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1), gain temporary hit points equal to 1 + your Fate Die roll.

When you enter a Rage or roll initiative and have no Fate Dice remaining, you regain one of your expended Fate Dice.

You have learned to channel the supernatural power that guides your favored path through life. When you make an ability check, attack roll, or saving throw, you can choose to use your Barbarian level in place of the d20 roll. You can use this feature after you roll, but before you know if your ability check, attack roll, or saving throw succeeds or fails.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

You have become more than mortal, and can perform feats of supernatural strength that rival heroes of legend. As an action you can expend one use of Rage to attempt a feat of godlike strength. For this action, the amount of weight you can move is equal to 50 times your Strength score.

Moreover, when you use this feature, you can expend Hit Dice to increase your strength even further. You can expend a total number of your Hit Dice, up to your Strength modifier, multiplying the amount of weight you can move as part of this action by 10 for each Hit Die you expend.

For each size category you are above Medium, the amount of weight you can move as part of this feature doubles again.

For example, a Medium sized Barbarian with 20 Strength could expend one Hit Die when they this feature, multiplying their 20 Strength by 60 (50 + 10), to lift up to 1,200 pounds. If they were Large, they would double this to 2,400 pounds.

A wild animal lies deep within your soul, but long practice and meditation allow you to harness its power and control the beast, not the other way around. This path is most commonly followed by shifters honing their natural abilities, but its adherents are also found among the tribes of the Demon Wastes and among lycanthropes, their bodies twisted by unnatural powers. Rarely, one born in a Lamannian manifest zone might find this path, and rumor tells of a rare breed of symbiont in the dwarven Realm Below that can transform its host, granting increased physical power in exchange for a terrifying appearance. Rarest of all are the kalashtar and Inspired who take up this path; projecting an image of their tsoreva spirit, the damage their mindblades deal is very real.

Beginning at 6th level, your natural weapons are empowered by the beast within. While you are raging, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Starting at 6th level, your senses sharpen even when not raging. You gain advantage on all Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight, smell, or hearing.

At 10th level, your fury and the beast within meld into one, and you can lash out at your foes as you charge. While raging, you can use an action to move up to your speed without provoking opportunity attacks, then make one melee attack. As you move, you can make one claw attack against each creature you pass. You can use this ability only once per rage.

Starting at 14th level, you tap into a beastly power that transforms you. As a bonus action, you can enter a rage and gain the following additional benefits until your rage ends:

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

Tribal communities exist all across the realms, in all manner of locales and climes. While their customs often change, one steadfast certainty seen time and time again is the reverence for particular animals local to that tribe. These are often wildly varied; northern tribes may revere the Wolf or the Bear, those of the deserts follow the Hawk or the Jackal, and those of the jungle may aspire to the Ape or the Tiger. It is in this tradition that the Path of the Fin, island warriors capturing the bloodthirsty essence of the great Shark, arose.

A fully grown shark can smell a single drop of blood in the water almost a mile away. At 6th level, you gain an amazing sense of smell. You have advantage on all Intelligence (Investigation) and Wisdom (Perception) checks dealing with smell, and you can automatically track a single living creature whose scent you are familiar with as long as the trail is less than a week old. By spending a minute concentrating, you can detect the scents of all living creatures in a 100-foot radius, or up to a mile in the water.

Starting at 10th level, your bite attack damage increases to 1d10. Additionally, once per turn when you hit a creature with your bite attack, it must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) or be knocked prone or grappled by you (your choice). The target has disadvantage on this save if you are swimming.

By 14th level, as a bonus action, you can conjure a magical wave of salt water that rises at your feet and glides beneath you. The wave is up to 15 feet wide and 15 feet tall, and moves with you as you swim. If a creature is caught up in the wave, it is forced to swim and hold its breath until it leaves the wave's area or the wave moves away from it. The wave extinguishes unprotected flames in its area. The wave lasts for 1 minute, after which it spreads across the ground in all directions and quickly evaporates.

Once you use this ability, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Barbarians are defined by their rage, channeling emotion to unleash brief but potent destruction on their enemies. A rare few study esoteric psychological techniques that split their rage off from the rest of their psyche, dividing their identity into two parts: ego and id. When their ego is in control, the Fractured—as these barbarians are known—are capable of a degree of self-control and cunning few other barbarians are. When they allow their id to take control, their countenance turns monstrous and their bodies swell with the power of rage made physically manifest.

At 6th level, while you are not raging, you have resistance to psychic damage. While you are raging, you have resistance to all damage except psychic damage.

At 10th level, while you are not raging, you can take a bonus action on each of your turns to take the Disengage or Help action. While you are raging, your unarmed strikes score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.

At 14th level, when you take damage that would reduce you to 0 hit points, you can use your reaction to drop to 1 hit point instead and gain temporary hit points equal to half your maximum hit points. In addition, if you were raging your rage ends, and if you weren't raging, you enter a rage (even if you have no remaining uses of your rage). You lose all remaining temporary hit points after 1 minute.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

At 3rd level, a barbarian gains the Primal Path feature. The following option is available to a barbarian, in addition to those offered in the Player's Handbook and Xanthar's Guide to Everything.

Starting at 6th level, your knowledge of the hunt has attuned your own senses to let you know the hunter has become the hunted. You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks to spot hidden creatures. In addition, you can no longer be surprised.

Beginning at 10th level, your zeal for the hunt and combat have grown so intertwined, that you now sometimes seek to prolong them both.

Once per rage, you can attempt to hobble one of your opponents. When you land a melee weapon attack, your target must succeed on a Strength saving throw equal to 8 +your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier, or be knocked prone. In addition, its movement speed is halved until it receives magical healing, or finishes a long rest.

At 14th level, the viciousness of your rage has reached its pinnacle. While raging, your weapon attacks score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20. If your attacks already score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20 from another source, you instead score a critical hit on a roll of 18-20.

Barbarians who walk the Path of the Giant draw strength from the same primal forces as giants. As they rage, these barbarians surge with elemental power and grow in size, taking on forms that evoke the glory of giants. Some barbarians look like oversized versions of themselves, perhaps with a hint of elemental energy flaring in their eyes and around their weapons. Others transform more dramatically, taking on the appearance of an actual giant or a form similar to an Elemental, wreathed in fire, frost, or lightning.

6th-Level Path of the Giant Feature

Your bond with the elemental might of giants grows, and you learn to infuse weapons with primordial energy.

When you enter your rage, you can choose one weapon that you are holding and infuse it with one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, thunder, or lightning. While you wield the infused weapon during your rage, the weapon's damage type changes to the chosen type, it deals an extra 1d6 damage of the chosen type when it hits, and it gains the thrown property, with a normal range of 20 feet and a long range of 60 feet. If you throw the weapon, it reappears in your hand the instant after it hits or misses a target. The infused weapon's benefits are suppressed while a creature other than you wields it.

While raging and holding the infused weapon, you can use a bonus action to change the infused weapon's current damage type to another one from the damage type options above.

10th-Level Path of the Giant Feature

Your connection to giant strength allows you to hurl both allies and enemies on the battlefield. As a bonus action while raging, you can choose one Medium or smaller creature within your reach and move it to an unoccupied space you can see within 30 feet of yourself. An unwilling creature must succeed on a Strength saving throw (DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) to avoid the effect.

If, at the end of this movement, the thrown creature isn't on a surface or liquid that can support it, the creature falls, taking damage as normal and landing prone.

14th-Level Path of the Giant Feature

The primordial power of your rage intensifies. When you rage, your reach increases by 10 feet, your size can increase to Large or Huge (your choice), and you can use your Mighty Impel to move creatures that are Large or smaller.

In addition, the extra damage dealt by your Elemental Cleaver feature increases to 2d6.
