# Warlord
Two vast armies stand <br>across the field of death, <br>fear gripping the heart of<br> every soldier. From their<br> ranks, the banner is carried <br>forth - a shining beacon <br>without fear. Before they <br>even know it, their feet pound across the<br> ground, their fear left behind as they follow<br> their symbol of hope to victory.

Collapsing to the ground, a man succumbs<br> to wounds, exhaustion, terror, and the <br>overwhelming clash of steel all around.<br> Death closes in, but before it can claim<br> him, a hand appears, pulling him to his <br>feet. "On your feet, soldier".

The line will soon be overrun—until, <br> among the broken ranks of soldiers, a lone <br> soldier spots his liege. She stands, unwilling <br> to turn aside, unwilling to step back from danger, <br> holding back the horde of enemies alone. Retreat <br> is no longer an option. With newfound strength <br> behind every blow, the soldiers stand and fight <br> like no one has ever fought before.

"How did you do it?" hisses the marauder, his <br> sword dropped before him in surrender. He kneels <br> beside his captured comrades, encircled by a smaller  <br> force that seems to have come from  nowhere. The <br> victorious general smiles knowingly and shrugs.  <br> "Luck," he says. "And perhaps a bit of planning."

Warlords are force multipliers for their<br> companions. Some may be fearsome <br> combatants, while others may never lift a <br> weapon, but in either case their presence <br> on the battlefield will drive their allies to <br> new heights, guiding them safely through <br> what would surely have been their doom.

How victory is stolen from the jaws of defeat <br> can  vary, from inciting crazed zeal, to tempering an <br> overeager charge, to pulling their friends out of the line <br> of danger in the nick of time. The sole commonality is <br> that a Warlord alone is but a man, while a Warlord with <br> their companions is a legend.

### Purpose and Drive
Purpose is a common element to those that walk the path of a Warlord. Purpose empowers Warlords to be a larger-than-life, and allows them to be a guiding hand to their comrades. Some Warlords may not seek any particular cause, and merely pursue victory - either as a tribute to a god they worship or simply to attain personal glory. More often, though, a Warlord is driven by a higher purpose - a loyalty to their country or their men, a drive to protect the innocent or crush the weak.

Purpose is an important consideration to a Warlord in understanding why they fight, as it will inform how they fight. Do they try to keep their companions and followers out of danger? Or do they simply press for the strategy that is most likely to win?

\columnbreak

### Power of Presence
Most warlords have no explicitly magical powers, but the presence on the battlefield allows people to exceed what they might have thought of as their own limits, pushing beyond what they could hope to achieve on their own. A Warlord will make their allies feel like they've become better at everything, they will make problems seem surmountable, and they will make the path clear. They make the world less bleak, they make the foes less terrifying. When you have a Warlord on your side, more things go right.

Just as a dragon's frightful presence instills a supernatural dread in mortal adventurers, a Warlord's presence is more than just simple common sense and a head for strategy, it is the power of conviction, the perfection of tactics, or the will to win incarnated in Adventurer form.

### Creating a Warlord
When creating a Warlord you should always start with answering the question: what sort of Presence does this person bring to the battlefield? Are they a charismatic inspiration to their allies that drives them to fight on? Are they a wise veteran who acts as a force multiplier for their companions, offering pointers and grit? Or are they a scheming manipulator who sees one step ahead of any move their foes can make, always making sure their allies are in the right spot?

### Quick Build
You can make a warlord quickly by following these suggestions. For a Commander select Strength as your highest attribute followed by Wisdom.  For a Chieftain or Paragon select Strength as your highest attribute followed by Charisma.

For a Noble select Charisma as your highest attribute followed by Constitution. For a Packleader, select Dexterity as your highest stat followed by Wisdom. For a Tactician select Intelligence followed by Constitution.

As a Warlord, you gain the following class features

#### Hit Points
___
- **Hit Dice:** 1d8 per Warlord level
- **Hit Points at 1st Level:** 8 + your Constitution modifier
- **Hit Points at Higher Levels:** 1d8 (or 5) + your Constitution modifier per warlord level after 1st

#### Proficiencies
___
- **Armor:** Light armor, medium armor.
- **Weapons:** Simple weapons.

___
- **Saving Throws:** Wisdom, Charisma
- **Skills:** Choose three from Athletics, Deception, History, Insight, Intimidation, Investigation, Medicine, Performance, and Persuasion.

You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:

- *(a)* a simple melee weapon, or *(b)* a martial weapon (if proficient).
- *(a)* a light crossbow and 20 bolts, or *(b)* a shield (if proficient).
- *(a)* leather armor, or *(b)* scale mail, or *(c)* chain mail (if proficient).

Alternatively, you may start with 5d4 × 10 gp to buy your own equipment.

### Warlord Presences
At 1st level, you pick the archetype of Warlord you embody, called a Presence, choosing from Commander, Chieftain, Noble, Packleader, Paragon or Tactician, each of which are detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 1st level, and again at 3rd, 7th, 11th, 15th, and 18th level.

\columnbreak

### Battlefield Presence
Starting at 1st level, when you take the Attack action, in place of making an attack, you can use your Battlefield Presence to grant a friendly creature that can see or hear you an additional attack the next time they take the Attack action during their turn.

Any additional attacks granted that are unused at the start of your next turn are lost. A friendly creature can only gain one additional attack from this feature per round from this feature.

### Leadership Dice
Starting at 2nd level, you have access to Leadership Dice. These represent your ability to focus your battlefield presence for powerful results. Your Warlord level determines the number and size of the dice, as shown on the Leadership Dice column of the Warlord table. You can spend these to fuel various features.

You know three such features: Rallying Mark, Urgent Orders, and Helpful Word. When you get this feature, you can spend one Leadership Die per turn. 
Starting at 6th level, you can spend two Leadership Dice per turn. The number you can expend increases to three at 11th level, and to four at 17th level.

A Leadership Die is expended when you use it. You regain all of your expended Leadership Dice when you finish a short or long rest.

##### Rallying Mark
As a bonus action, you can expend a number of Leadership Dice (up to your per turn limit) to rally your allies to attack a hostile creature within 60 feet of you.

The next time damage is rolled against that target by an allied creature before the start of your next turn, they can add the Leadership Dice to the damage roll, and the attacking creature regains hit points equal to the amount rolled on the Leadership Dice.

##### Urgent Orders
As a bonus action, you can expend a number of Leadership Dice (up to your per turn limit) to guide your allies in expeditious action.

Target an allied creature within 60 feet of you that can see or hear you, that creature can immediately use its reaction to move up to its movement speed (up to a maximum of 30 feet) without provoking opportunity attacks. Roll the leadership dice expended, the target gains temporary hit points equal to the value rolled.

##### Helpful Word
As a bonus action, you can spend a Leadership Die to take the Help action. When you use the Help action to aid an ally in attacking a creature, the target of that attack can be within 30 feet of you, rather than within 5 feet of you, if your ally can see or hear you.

### Warlord's Expertise
Starting at 3rd level, choose one of the following skills: Investigation, Insight, Intimidation, or Persuasion. If you are not proficient in the chosen skill you become proficient If you are already proficient in the skill you select, your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses that skill.

\pagebreakNum

### Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 10th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

### Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. You can use Battlefield Presence in place of either or both attacks.

### Prepare for Battle
Starting at 6th level, you can spend a minute preparing creatures for combat. You can expend a number of Leadership Dice up to your per turn limit, rolling them and causing five your creatures of your choice (potentially including yourself) to gain temporary hit points equal to the number rolled. Allies that have benefited from this ability can expend a number of hit dice equal to the number of Leadership Dice you expended, using them as they would during a short rest. Any temporary hit points gained from this last until you complete a short or long rest.

### Press the Attack
Starting at 9th level, your abilities are further empowered:

##### Rallying Mark: Boost Morale 
When a creature gains hit points from Rallying Mark, you can use your reaction to expend one Leadership die to cause another creature within 60 feet of the attacker to regain the same number of hit points.

#####  Urgent Orders: Coordinated Movements
When you use Urgent Orders, you can expend additional Leadership dice to target additional creatures (targeting one additional creature for each extra die spent).

##### Helpful Word: Expert Instructions
When a creature benefits from your Help action, you can use your reaction to expend a Leadership Die and add it to their roll. You can use this ability after the original roll, but before the outcome is revealed.

### Warlord's Intuition
Starting at 13th level, before rolling an ability check you are proficient in, you can exercise this ability, choosing for the d20 to be equal to your Warlord level rather than rolling. Once you do this, you cannot do this until you complete a long rest.

### Shift the Field
Starting at 14th level, you gain the ability to relocate friendly creatures. As an action, you can expend one Leadership Die to move up to 5 friendly creatures that can see or hear you up to half their movement speed without provoking attacks of opportunity.

### Unbreakable Will
Starting at 17th level, you are immune to the frightened and charmed conditions.

\columnbreak

### Tireless Leader
Starting at 20th level, you can roll d4s and use them instead of expending Leadership Dice for Rallying Mark, Urgent Orders, Helpful Word, or Prepare for Battle.

## Warlord's Presences
Warlords may invoke a variety of different types of Presence on the battlefield. You can choose which kind of Presence best suits your Warlord from the following.

### Commander's Presence
A Commander on the field can be many things - a trusted sergeant, a weary veteran, or merely a person with an uncommon degree of common sense and a particularly keen eye for how to win a fight.

While not as flashy as some of the other Presences on the Battlefield, that just means they are less likely to get themselves skewered. A keen word there and helping hand here, their influence is subtle but effective, inexorably shifting the tides of battle in their favor.

A Commander can come from any background, but is usually someone that has acquired their Wisdom the hard way, having seen a bit of what life and battlefields have to offer.

#### Martial Proficiency
Starting at 1st level when you take this Presence, you gain proficiency in heavy armor, shields, and martial weapons.

#### Form Up!
Starting at 1st level, when you roll initiative and are not surprised, any number of friendly creatures within 30 feet of you can move up to their speed a number of feet equal to five times your Wisdom modifier (minimum 5 feet).

> ##### Sequential Movement at the Same Time.
>
> D&D is typically a turn based game, and thus people do not typically move at the same time; an ability that allows multiple creatures to move at the same time opens the door to questions about order. This ability represents the Commander's Presence causing their companions to spring into a well oiled routine, and it is recommended that you let the players move in their desired order during this movement.
>
> It should also be noted that this movement is determined by the player moving. A Warlord grants their allies the ability to move, they do not necessarily move them.

#### Keen Pointer
Starting at 3rd level, you can take the Helpful Word bonus action without expending a Leadership Die if you are within 5 feet of the creature you are taking the Help action against.

When you do so, you can expend Leadership Dice to apply Rallying Mark to the creature you are targeting with this Help action.

\pagebreakNum

#### On Your Feet!
Starting at 7th level, you can use a bonus action and expend one Leadership Die to restore the will to fight in an allied creature. Choose a friendly creature within 5 feet of you. That creature regains hit points equal to your Leadership die.

When you use this feature to restore hit points to a creature at 0 hit points, you can add your Wisdom modifier to the amount of hit points restored. If the creature is prone, it can choose to stand immediately.

#### Martial Advantage
Starting at 11th level, you've learned to leverage fighting alongside an ally. Once per turn, you can deal an extra 2d6 damage to a creature you hit with a weapon attack if that creature is within 5 feet of an ally that isn't incapacitated.

#### Bulwark
Starting at 15th level, when you and any number of friendly creatures within 30 feet of you make a Saving Throw against the same effect, your allies gain Advantage on their Saving Throw if you succeed on the saving throw.

#### No One Left Behind!
Starting at 18th level, you can move up to your speed to get within 5 feet of a creature while using your On Your Feet feature. During this movement you gain resistance to all damage and the target regains an additional 1d8 hit points for each attack of opportunity made against you during this movement.

\columnbreak

### Chieftain's Presence
A chieftain is a Warlord that rules by the sheer force of their personality, marked by their booming voice and fearless attitude, it is easy to believe that your band is infallible while your chieftain stands.

They can be lawful or chaotic, good or evil, with such things depending on how they got to where they are in life. An orc that cut their way to the top may be chaotic, believing that strength needs room to rise to the top unfettered by rules, while someone that inherited their authority may have a more lawful bent.

A Warlord with the Presence of a Chieftain need not literally rule anything, but is an exemplar of someone that has or could walk that path through their force of personality and the boisterous inspiration they give those around them.

#### Chieftain's Proficiency
Starting at 1st level when you take this Presence, you gain proficiency in shields, martial weapons, and the Intimidation skill, or another skill of your choice if you are already proficient.

#### Wolfpack Movement
Starting at 1st level, the first time an allied creature moves, it can bring a number of willing creatures equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1) within 20 feet of you along with it in the same distance and direction that they move, but cannot move more than half of their movement speed and cannot move more than 20 feet from you. Creatures can stop this movement at any point along the path.

#### Warcry
Starting at 3rd level, as an action or in place of an attack as part of the Attack action, you can expend a number of Leadership Dice (up to your per turn limit) to inspire your allies with a mighty Warcry. You and friendly creatures within 20 feet of you gain temporary hit points equal to the Leadership Dice roll + your Charisma modifier (minimum 1). This can affect a number of creatures up to your 1 +  Charisma modifier (minimum 1).

You can make a single weapon attack as a bonus action after unleashing a War Cry, but the attack roll has disadvantage unless made with a weapon with light property.

#### Savage Momentum
Additionally at 3rd level, whenever you spend a Leadership Die, you gain advantage on the next attack roll you make before the end of your turn.

#### Reckless Assault
Starting at 7th level, when a creature with temporary hit points from one of your abilities deals damage, they can expend those temporary hit points to add damage equal to half the temporary hit points sacrificed to their damage dealt.

#### Wolfpack Tactics
Starting at 11th level, you excel at taking down prey in coordination with your allies. The first creature you hit that has taken damage from one of your allies since the end of your last turn suffers an additional 1d12 damage.

The first time a creature you grant a creature an attack with Battlefield Presence deals damage to a creature you had dealt damage to during your turn, that attack deals an additional 1d4 damage.

\pagebreakNum

#### Booming Shout
Starting at 15th level, when you unleash your Warcry you can attempt to frighten enemies. Any number of creatures of your choice within range of your Warcry must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC of 8 + Charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus) or become frightened of you until the end of their turn. Once you have used Booming Shout, you cannot use it again until you complete a short or long rest.

Additionally, the range of your Rallying Mark, Urgent Orders, Helpful Word, and Warcry is doubled.

#### Bloody Victory
Starting at 18th level, when you or an ally reduces a hostile creature that has dealt damage to you to 0 hit points, you can unleash a Warcry as a reaction. When you unleash your Warcry in this way, you do not expend any Leadership Dice and you use a d12 in place of your Leadership Die.

You can use this reaction a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier, regaining all uses on a long rest.

### Noble's Presence
A Warlord with a Noble Presence is not inherently one that was born a Noble, though many are. A Noble Presence Warlord is one that serves to drive their retainers and companions onto greater heights through sheer charisma, a shining beacon of what they are fighting for standing beside them.

Since time immemorial men have fought twice as hard on a battlefield when their leader takes the field to stand among them, driven to heights that would seem impossible in order to protect their liege - while an adventurer of this path may or may not be their liege, their charisma invokes the same fervor in their companions and retainers.

An adventurer on this path is not inherently of noble background, though many often are. A noble reared on the laws of the land is usually lawful, but extraordinary circumstances may have brought about a rebellious streak in one that now seeks to overthrow unfit rulers (or rulers that aren't them, anyway).

#### Destined Leader
Starting at 1st level when you take this Presence you gain proficiency with rapiers, longswords and the Persuasion skill, or another skill of your choice if you are already proficient. Additionally, you gain an additional Leadership Die at 3rd level, 9th level, and 15th level.

#### Call to Arms
Starting at 1st level, when you roll initiative you can call out to friendly creatures within 60 feet of you, providing them with a surge of inspiration. Creatures of your choice equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1) gain advantage on their first attack roll.

#### Inspiring Leader
Additionally at 1st level, an allied creature with a CR of less than half your Warlord level (or with fewer class levels than you have Warlord levels if the creature does not have a CR) can choose to use your proficiency bonus + Charisma modifier for the attack roll modifier on the first Attack they make in a turn where they have been granted by Battlefield Presence.

\columnbreak

> ##### Retainers & Followers
> A Noble Warlord gets more mileage out of their retainers or followers than other Warlords, but in turn is more dependent on having someone else make their attacks for them. 
>
> This does not inherently mean they need NPC followers, however. A loyal retainer is always a good idea, but it can be a friendly Fighter just as easily as an NPC follower.

#### Divine Right
Starting at 3rd level, you can use Leadership Dice (up to your per turn limit) to cast *command*. The level of the spell is equal to the number of Leadership Dice spent.

The spell save DC for these spells are 8 + your Charisma modifier + your Proficiency bonus.

You can also add your Charisma (maximum 2) to your AC so long as you are not wearing heavy armor or using a shield.

#### Charismatic Leadership
Additionally at 3rd level, you can add your Charisma modifier to the damage bonus of Rallying Mark, the temporary hit points granted by Urgent Orders, and the attack roll of a creature that gains advantage from Helpful Word.

\pagebreakNum

#### Words of Conviction
Starting at 7th level, you can use Leadership Dice (Up to your per turn limit) to cast *bless* or *heroism* without providing material components. The level of the spell is equal to the number of Leadership Dice spent.

#### Imperative Order
Starting at 7th level, when you spend 2 or more Leadership Dice on a target with Urgent Orders, you can allow the target creature to make a single weapon attack with their reaction instead of moving. If you spend 3 or more Leadership Dice on a target, the target creature can both move and make a single weapon attack with their reaction.

#### Inspired Zeal
Starting at 11th level, all creatures of your choice within 30 feet of you deal an extra 1d4 radiant damage when they hit with a weapon attack.

#### Untouchable Presence
Starting at 15th level, you are under the effect of *sanctuary* spell. This effect ends as normal if you take an action that would break it, but returns at the start of your next turn.

The spell save DC for this spell is 8 + your Charisma modifier + your Proficiency bonus.

#### Grand Decree
Starting at 18th level, you can use this ability to cast *command* without expending a spell slot or Leadership Dice. When you do so, the spell affects all creatures of your choice within range that could be affected by the spell.

Once you cast *command* using this ability, you cannot cast it using this ability again until you complete a long rest.

### Packleader's Presence
While Warlords may specialize in the control of battles, an Packleader is a Warlord that aims to win a *fight* before it becomes a *battle*. Through scouting, preparing, and stacking the odds, they don't fight fair, they fight to win, and seek to only fight when they've already won.

Their control of the battlefield doesn't merely extend to those that fight on it, but to twisting the battlefield itself to suit their needs, stymying and stupefying their foes while concealing and sheltering their allies with the terrain itself.

While good and evil rarely play directly into a Packleader's perspective (they can be either or Neutral just as easily), they tend be Chaotic, viewing the so called "rules of engagement" and other traditions of civilization to be convenient weaknesses they can exploit rather than any sort of guideline they might actually follow.

#### Tools of the Wild
Starting at 1st level when you take this Presence, you gain proficiency in martial weapons, the Survival skill, or another skill of your choice if already proficient, and your choice of the Herbalism Kit or the Poisoner's Kit.

#### Concealed Approach
Starting at 1st level, if you have at least a minute to prepare, you can add your Wisdom modifier to a Dexterity (Stealth) check for you and up five friendly creatures. You and friendly creatures within 30 feet of you that roll for initiative while hidden can add your Wisdom modifier to the initiative result.

#### Nature's Gift
Starting at 3rd level, through your connection to the wild battlefields you've mastered offers you some measure of control of them. You learn the spell *mold earth*, and can pick one additional cantrip from the Druid list that you know.

Additionally, you can expend one Leadership Die to cast *fog cloud* or *snare* as 1st level spells. The casting time of *snare* is one action when you cast it this way. You can pick one additional 1st level spell from the Druid spell list with a casting time of one action to cast this way.

Your spell casting modifier for these spells is Wisdom, and your spell Save DC for these spells is 8 + your Proficiency modifier + your Wisdom Modifier.

> ##### A Pack Leader's Pack
>
> Many Packleaders opt to pick *animal friendship* or *speak with animals* in order to establish animal allies to expand their pack, but just as many don't feel the need to be required to have an animal companion.

#### Shroud of Nature
Starting at 7th level, you and your allies can fade away behind natural shrouds. Whenever you cast a spell that results in you or a friendly creature becoming obscured (such as being within the radius of a *fog cloud* or behind earth moved by *mold earth*), the obscured creature can use their reaction to take the Hide action.

\pagebreakNum

#### Trackless Trails
Additionally at 7th level, you can spend 2 Leadership Dice to cast *pass without trace* without providing material components.

#### Fleeting Strikers
Starting at 11th level, if you are not in the same spot you were at the end of your last turn or are obscured from your target, the first attack you make during your turn deals an additional 1d10 damage.

Additionally, a creature that you grant an Attack with Battlefield Presence can take the Dash action instead of making the attack you granted.

#### Ghosts of the Wild
Starting at 15th level, while under the effect of *pass without trace*, you can expend one Leadership Die to take the Hide action at the end of your turn without expending an action.

\columnbreak

If you use Battlefield Presence to grant an attack to a creature, you can expend one Leadership Die to shroud them with shadows or natural phenomena, granting them advantage on the first attack they make before the start of your next turn. If they are under the effect of *pass without trace*, you can do this without expending a Leadership Die.

#### Warlord of the Wilds
Starting at 18th level, you can pick five additional spells from the Druid spell list of 4th level or lower. You can cast these spells using Leadership Dice equal to the level of the spell. You can change the list of spells you have selected when you complete a long rest.

The spell Save DC for these spells is 8 + your Proficiency modifier + your Wisdom Modifier.

Any time you use Leadership Dice to cast a spell, you can take the Attack action (one weapon attack only) as a bonus action.

### Paragon's Presence
Legends tell of warriors that fight at the front of a legion, of the valor they display and the inspiration it gives their comrades. A Paragon before their army is a dauntless foe, and an army behind their Paragon is an unstoppable legion.

A Paragon is not inherently good or evil. An evil legion can be led by a bold and charismatic Warlord just as effectively as the forces of good.

As they tend to be those that inspire an organized force, more often than not they will be lawful, but what that personal code of laws entails can vary quite widely.

#### Martial Proficiency
Starting at 1st level when you take this Presence, you gain proficiency in heavy armor, shields, and martial weapons.

#### Lead the Charge
Starting at 1st level, you can give yourself a bonus to your initiative rolls equal to your Charisma modifier.
Additionally, when you roll initiative you gain temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus.

#### Fighting Style
Starting at 3rd level, you adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can’t take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

* **Defense:** While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.
* **Dueling:** When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon.
* **Great Weapon Fighting:** When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack you make with a melee weapon that you are wielding with two hands, you can reroll the die and must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. The weapon must have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain this benefit.
* **Two-Weapon Fighting:** When you engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your ability modifier to the damage of the second attack.

\pagebreakNum

#### Heroic Strike
Additionally at 3rd level, when you take the Attack action, once per turn you can expend Leadership Dice (up to your per turn limit) to apply Rallying Mark as part of a melee weapon attack.

Whenever you expend Leadership Dice as part of making an attack, you can add the expended Leadership Dice to the damage roll of the attack.

#### Stand Defiant
Starting at 7th level, when you are reduced to zero hit points, you instantly regain a number of hit points equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1). Additionally, you can expend a number of Leadership Dice equal to the number of friendly creatures within 60 feet of you, regaining additional hit points equal to the value rolled this way. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you complete a short or long rest.

#### Inspired Warrior
Starting at 11th level, once per turn, when one of your allies within 30 feet takes or deals damage, you gain d4 dice, adding it to a pool of dice. You can have a maximum number of d4 dice in this pool equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1).

Until the end of your next turn, when you deal damage you can expend any number of dice from this pool rolling them and dealing additional damage equal to the value rolled.

> ##### The Prowess of the Inspired
>
> Effectively in almost all cases, what this ability boils down to is that if their companions are fighting around them within 30 feet, the Paragon will add a number of d4 equal to their Charisma modifier to the first attack on their turn.
>
> The ability can be simplified to that, but that will result in it being slightly stronger than anticipated if the Paragon moves first or has few companions at their side.

#### Dauntless Resolve
Starting at 15th level, when you fail a saving throw, you can choose to succeed instead. Once you do this, you cannot do this again until you complete a long rest.

#### Invincible Legion
Starting at 18th level, your allies will never fall so long as their symbol of hope remains. When a friendly creature within 60 feet of you is reduced to 0 hit points, but not killed outright, they can drop to 1 hit point instead so long as they can see or hear you.

Once a creature benefits from this effect, they cannot benefit from it again until they complete a long rest.

### Tactician's Presence
A Tactician may very well tell you they would just as soon not be close enough to the battle to be considered a combatant, preferring to win their fights before they even reach that stage, but one would be a fool to underestimate how dangerous they are once on the battlefield.

While they might have laid their plans in advance, their sharp minds can quickly pick apart how their foes try to fight against them and effortlessly pierce the crude tactics that would be used against them and their allies.

What tends to mark a Tactician is a keen mind and a willingness to plan ahead... in great detail. Adventurers with a tactician among them are near impossible to pin down, as they will always find a way to turn the tables.

#### Tactician's Cunning
When you take this Presence at 1st level, you gain proficiency in the History and Investigation skills, or other skills of your choice if you are already proficient. Additionally, if you can take a minute or more making a skill check, you can treat a d20 roll of 4 or lower as a 5.

#### Battle Plans
Starting at 1st level, you can give yourself a bonus to your initiative rolls equal to your Intelligence modifier. Additionally, you can exchange your initiative roll with a willing friendly creature within 60 feet.

#### Tactical Insight
Starting at 3rd level, you can tactically assess a creature's options. As a bonus action, make an Intelligence (Investigation) check contested by a Charisma (Deception) check against any creature you can see within 60 feet.

\pagebreakNum

On a success, you can see through their tactics, granting one of the following effects:

* **Determine Attack**: You can cause them to have disadvantage on their next attack against a creature that can see or hear you.
* **Predict Movement**: You deduce where they are planning to move on their next turn. They can choose to change their plans, but if they move anywhere else, their movement speed is reduced by 10 feet as they scramble to adapt.
* **Outwit Response**: You can find their openings, negating their ability to use their reaction until the end of their next turn.
* **Expose Weakness**: You can use Helpful Word to grant advantage against that target as part of the bonus action without expending a Leadership Die.

> ##### Planning Movement... or not.
>
> A DM can choose to read the second bullet point of Tactical insight as simply reducing the targets movement by 10. It is balanced around this assumption, predicting the movement is optional flavor, but may not fit all DMs styles.

#### Tactical Flexibility
Additionally at 3rd level, you gain the ability to use Tactical Insight, Rallying Mark, Helpful Word, and Urgent Orders as an action or a bonus action on your turn.

#### Inscrutable Mind
Starting at 7th level, you gain proficiency in Intelligence Saving Throws.

Additionally, as a reaction when being forced to make a Wisdom, Intelligence, or Charisma Saving Throw, you can expend one Leadership Die and add the die result to the saving throw.

#### Control the Field
Starting at 7th level, when you use an ability that moves allied creatures (such as Urgent Orders or Shift the Field), it gains the following properties:

* **Deceptive Movement**: You can attempt to move creatures that are not allies up to 5 feet (or half their movement speed, whichever is less). The creature must make an Intelligence Saving Throw with a DC of 8 + your Intelligence modifier + your Proficiency bonus, or feel compelled to move to the new position immediately. Targets moved this way do not gain temporary hit points.
* **Flanking Maneuvers**: If two allies you move are on opposite sides of a creature after the movement you grant, the first one to attack that enemy has advantage on their first attack if they attack before the creature moves.
* **Coordinated Transitions**: Allies can move through each other's spaces during the movement you grant without it being difficult terrain.

#### Tactical Strike
Starting at 11th level, when you succeed on a Tactical Insight check against a creature, the next time you or a friendly creature deal damage against it before the start of your next turn it is increased by 2d6 damage.

#### Advanced Orders
Additionally at 15th level, when you expend Leadership Die on Urgent Orders, you can allow the creature to take one of the Use an Object, Search, Hide, or Dodge actions as their reaction instead of moving.

#### Unstoppable Schemes
Starting at 18th level, standing in your way becomes a pointless endeavor. When you move your allies with Urgent Orders or Shift the Field, they can move through spaces occupied by hostile creatures so long as they do not end their movement in an occupied space.

#### Multilayered Tactics
Additionally at 18th level, when you succeed on a Tactical Insight check against a creature, you can choose two of the listed effects.

\pagebreakNum

## Expanded Options
The following are expanded subclass options for Warlord. Consult your DM to see if they are allowed.

### Dancer's Presence
A unique presence on the battlefield, these graceful agents wind their way through death and destruction with a curious elegance, uplifting their allies and distracting their enemies. A dancer comes in many forms, be they prancing jesters or graceful enchanters, their presence seems supernaturally captivating to all who encounter them, for good or ill.

Though they seem out of place in danger, confused onlookers will often find them as the last ones standing in the most dangerous of situations, always one step out of out the greatest danger.

#### Dancer's Grace
Starting at 1st level when you take this Presence, you gain proficiency with Performance. If you already have proficiency with performance, you gain expertise with it, meaning you can add twice your proficiency modifier to checks made with it.

Additionally, while you are not wearing armor or carrying a shield, you gain an unarmored defense that is 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Charisma modifier.

#### Graceful Entrance
Starting at 1st level, you can give yourself a bonus to your initiative rolls equal to your Charisma modifier. Additionally when you roll initiative and are not surprised, you can move up to your half movement speed, and you and any creature you end this movement within 5 feet of gains temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier.

#### Bewildering Steps
At 3rd level, you gain an additional use for leadership dice.

##### Distract
As a bonus action, you attempt to distract a creature within 30 feet. Until the start of its next turn, if that creature attacks a creature other than you while you are within range of its attack, you can roll your leadership die and subtract it from their attack.

#### Dancer's Dodge
Starting at 3rd level, when you take the Dodge action while you are not wearing armor or carrying a shield, you can use Distract, Helpful Word, Urgent Orders, or Rallying Mark without expending a leadership die. When you do so, it applies as if you had spent 1 leadership die on it for its effect.

Additionally, when you take the Dodge action, you can expend leadership dice to grant attacks through Battlefield Presence. You can grant a number of attacks equal to the leadership dice spent, up to your per turn limit.

#### Battlefield Grace
Starting at 7th level, whenever a creature misses you with an attack, you regain 1 spent leadership die and can move 5 feet. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity. You cannot regain a leadership die this way again until the start of your next turn.

\columnbreak

#### Whirling Thorns
Additionally at 7th level, if you are carrying a melee weapon with the light property, you can make a single attack with it as a bonus action. You can expend leadership dice to make additional attacks as part of the same action, but each attack must be against a different target within range.

> ##### Interactions
> This allows you to make a single weapon attack while taking actions other than attack actions, but it also allows you to make an additional attack when you take the attack action.

#### Furious Tempo
Starting at 11th level, you can add your Charisma modifier to the damage of attacks you make or grant through Battlefield Presence.

#### Evasion
Starting at 15th level, you can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain area effects. 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.

#### Elegant Exchange
Starting at 18th level, when an willing creature within 15 feet of you is the target of a spell, attack, or targeted effect that would cause them to take damage, you can move their position as a reaction, moving them 5 feet in any direction and becoming the target of the attack.

\pagebreakNum

### Dreadlord's Presence [Beta]
A warlord that follows this path specializes in terror and fear, usually localized to their enemies. While other warlords look to boost and inspire their allies, a Dreadlord works to undermine and terrify their enemies, crushing their will to fight and leaving them as prey easily slaughtered.

A dreadlord is not always evil, though they most often show up in the ranks of evil, but by their very nature they are someone that can instill dread and terror. The source of this dread can be cursed visage, supernatural gift, or simply a tyrannical force of will.

#### Dreadlord Proficiency
Starting at 1st level when you select this Presence, you gain proficiency in heavy armor and the Intimidation skill.

#### Unapproachable
Additionally at 1st level, your intimidating presences causes your foes to falter at the start of combat. After rolling initiative, the first attack by the first hostile creature to attack an allied creature within 30 feet of you has disadvantage.

#### Demoralization Dice
Starting at 3rd level, whenever you spend a Leadership Die, you gain a Demoralization Die of equal size. Demoralization Dice last until you have gone 1 minute without earning or spending one. You can spend Demoralization Die as a reaction on one of the following effects:

* **Make it Excruciating.** When a creature within 30 feet of you takes damage from a weapon attack roll made by an ally of yours, as a reaction you can expend up Demoralization Dice (up to your Leadership Die limit), rolling them and causing the target to take additional damage equal the value of the rolled dice.
* **Don't Touch That.** When a creature attacks an allied creature within 30 feet of you, as a reaction you can expend one Demoralization Dice, rolling it and reducing the attacker's attack roll.
* **Are You Sure?** When a creature ends their turn within 5 feet of you, as a reaction you can expend Demoralization Dice (up to your Leadership Die limit) and force the creature to make a Wisdom saving throw (DC 8 + your Charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus. On failure, the creature uses their reaction to move a number of feet away from you equal to 10 x the Demoralization Dice spent. The target automatically passes if they are <br> immune to the frightened condition.

#### Supernatural Dread
Starting at 7th level, you can use Leadership Dice <br> (up to your per turn limit) to cast *frighten* <br> without a spell slot. The level of the spell<br> is equal to the number of Leadership <br> Dice spent.

Alternatively, can spend <br> 3 Leadership Dice (even if it exceeds your per turn <br> limit) to instead cast *fear* without expending a spell<br> slot or material component once. After you do this, <br> you cannot cast *fear* this way again until you complete a long rest.

Charisma is your spell casting modifier for these spells

\columnbreak

#### Iron Mask
Additionally at 7th level, you are exceptionally good at masking your emotions. Creatures have disadvantage on Wisdom (Insight) ability checks against you.

Additionally, you can suppress the effect of the frightened condition on yourself, but it requires concentration (as if concentrating on a spell). You cannot lose concentration on the effect, but cannot maintain it while concentrating on spell.

#### Punish the Weak
Starting at 11th level, when you target a creature within 60 feet of you with any ability, feature, or attack, you can mark them for punishment (no action required). The mark lasts until the creature ends their turn more than 60 feet from you, dies, or you mark another creature. Once per turn when the marked creature takes damage, they take an additional 1d8 damage. This is increased to 1d12 if the target is frightened of you.

#### Instinctive Flinch
Starting at 15th level, when a creature passes a Wisdom saving throw against one of your features that would cause them to become frightened or flee, they still gain disadvantage on their next attack role made before the start of your next turn. This has no effect if the target is immune to the frightened condition.

\pagebreakNum

#### Expanded Dominion
Additionally at 15th level, the range of your Demoralization dice effects are doubled (making them 60 feet, 60 feet, and 10 feet, respectively).

#### Dreadful Terror
Starting at 18th level, when a target becomes frightened of you, you can expend demoralization Dice to enhance the effect (no action required)

- **Panicked Terror.** The target immediately spends their reaction to move up to half of their movement speed away from you.
- **Blind Terror.** You can expend 2 Demoralization Dice to cause the target become blinded until the start of your next turn.
- **Paralyzing Terror.** You can expend 3 Demoralization Dice to cause the target to become paralyzed until the start of your next turn.

### 1.5
* Boost Morale clarifies that it requires your reaction. Range increased to 60 feet, specified to be within range of you.
* Coordinated Movement no longer splits the temporary hit points, it just costs +1 die per target affected. This is functional similar (though slightly more efficient), but hopefully more clear.

##### Chieftain's Presence
* **Wolfpack Movement** changed so that it no longer requires the Warlord to move first to be useful - it now allows any ally to take creatures along with them, but gained new limitations. Creatures end their movement if they move more than 20 feet from the Warlord and are limited to half their movement speed when following along (rather than their full movment). This was changed for a few reasons: 1) it was often useless if the Warlord didn't win initiative, 2) testing observed that a lot of Chieftains opt to play ranged characters making this not very useful for them.
* **War Cry** now allows a single weapon attack as a bonus action, but the attack has disadvantage unless using a light weapon. Note that Savage Momentum cancels out the disadvantage, so it basically just says "not with advantage". This makes TWF and War Cry less awkward pre-level 5, and still works with Ranged/2 Hander Chieftains, just less optimally. This can currently be exploited with Hand Crossbows because WotC made weird decisions with those, debating closing that loophole.

##### Noble's Presence
* **Call to Arms** changed to grant advantage to Charisma # creatures, rather than Charisma to any number of creatures. This is mostly for simplicity particularly with dozens of creatures adding a floating modifier was annoying and often forgotten
