Heart Full of Love

A homesteader most likely has no magic powers, or martial training. What gives them strength is a lifetime of hard work and experience. Many have likely raised children, or even grandchildren, and that has taught them a great deal about taking care of others. They find fulfillment in a smiling face, and they draw strength from the success of others. A homesteader would spend 8 hours gathering firewood, working until their hands bleed, to make sure their loved ones stay warm in the winter.

What draws a homesteader from their peaceful existence into the chaos of adventure varies. Perhaps their children have left home, and their spouse passed on, leading them to seek a new path in life. Perhaps there is some eminent threat the homesteader feels they must do their part to prevent, for the safety of their family. Whatever it is, they bring with them the experience of hard work, and a heart full of love.

Hardy and Experienced

Homesteader are more than mere peasants, but less than royalty, at least in terms of social class. They are people who value fair wages for honest work, and won't shy away from doing that work themselves if they have the knowhow. They often learn because they have to, because they have people depending on them. They may not be the most educated, the strongest, fastest, or most adept, but they know what they know, and they know when they're out of their depth. Their level-headed wisdom is what's kept them and their family alive, happy, and healthy.

A homesteader is often the patriarch or matriarch of the family. Where they go others follow, because they have proven their dependability, and how much they care for others. In a party of adventurers, their practical experience and heart of gold help to push others beyond their self-imposed limits, bringing out the best in them, and showing them what they are truly capable of. They provide a kind of emotional support that everyone deserves, but few are ever lucky enough to obtain.

Creating a Homesteader

When creating a homesteader, ask yourself first what caused you to leave their home life. Was it an imminent threat? Were you a single parent whose children left the nest? Did you lose your family in a natural disaster, and needed to get away from home to grieve?

Once you know why you left home, decide how you view your new life on the road. Do you long for the comfort of your favorite chair, or does has the thrill of adventure given you a new lease on life? What are you long term goals? When the adventure is over, do you have someone waiting for you, or are you content to let your love of life drive you where it may?

Quick Build

You can make a homesteader quickly by following these suggestions. First, put your highest ability score in Wisdom, followed by Strength. Second, choose the matriarch/patriarch or entertainer background.

Hobby

When you weren't homesteading or child rearing, you spent your time on what you love. Choose one of the Hobbies listed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 1st level, and again at 6th, 10th, 14th, and 18th levels.

The Touch

When it comes to certain things, you've just got the touch. You can do things that might seem magical to others, but it's simply experience.

Optional Rule: Multiclassing

If you use the optional multiclassing rule in the Player's Handbook, here's what you need to know if you choose homesteader as one of your classes.

---

• Ability Score Minimum. As a multiclass character you must have a Wisdom and Strength score of at least 13 to take a level in this class, or to take a level in another class if you already are a homesteader.
• Proficiencies Gained. If homesteader is not your initial class, you only gain proficiency with light armor and simple weapons, and one artisan's tools of your choice.
• Features that reference casting. Other class features that reference casting or concentration, such as the barbarians inability to cast spells while raging, consider replicating experiences with this class as casting.

When you weren't keeping your family fed and warm, you spent your free time doing what you love, be it smithing, spending time outdoors, or the old ball and stick with the kids. Your hobby granted you experiences you wouldn't otherwise have gained, and you carry those with you on your adventure.

Sentimental Items

Each hobby has you start your adventure with a sentimental item, something that reminds you of home. This item always seems to find its way back to you when lost (in a way the DM deems appropriate). If your sentimental item is destroyed, you end up finding a similar item that reminds you of the one you lost.
