Pact of the Greedallion

You have made a pact with a Greedallion, creatures made through forbidden alchemical rituals and made up of steel coins known as medallions as well as crystal and gold coins known as Core Medallions. The latter grant great power to those who posses them, and in pursuit of their desires your patron has gifted you with the ability to make use of them to further their goals. Greedallion resemble a chimera of animals in humanoid form, but all of their animals follow a general type of creature; perhaps your patron is one whose Core Medallions are themed around various subspecies of bird, or maybe they're based on insects or aquatic life.

You choose your patron's damage type or determine it randomly, using the Greedallion Form table.

Bonus Proficiencies

At 1st level, you gain proficiency with longswords and battleaxes.

Greedallion Cores

Also at 1st level, your AC is calculated as 10 + Your Strength Modifier + Your Charisma Modifier as long as you aren't wearing armor or a shield.

Additionally, you may choose six Core Medallions from appendix A of this document. You choose an additional four at 10th and 14th level. When you roll Initiative, you choose three of these cores and gain their benefits until combat ends. As a Bonus Action on your turn, you can exchange any core you are currently using for another you have access to. A creature can also hold one of these cores and gains its benefit as long as they hold it.

Greedallion Charge

At 6th level, you gain a special item called a Gredallion Scanner. When you deal damage with a longsword or battleaxe, you can deal an additional 2d6 damage of the type associated with your patron. This increases to 3d6 at 10th level and 4d6 at 14th level.

You may use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and regain all expended uses at the end of a long rest.

Greedallion Buckler

At 10th level, you gain a special buckler while using any greedallion cores. This buckler increases the AC granted by your Greedallion Cores feature by 1.

Additionally, you can use your Action to insert your greedallion cores into the buckler and perform a special attack. You target a creature within 60 feet of you, and that creature as well as creatures within a 15-foot radius of that creature must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 6d6 damage of the type associated with your patron.

You must finish a long rest to deal damage with this feature again.

Greedallion Support

At 14th level, your patron sends an avatar of themselves to fight at your side in battle. When you deal damage with a longsword or battleaxe, you deal an additional damage die of that weapon's damage of your patron's damage type.

Additionally, you can use your reaction to sacrifice one of your cores to force a creature to have disadvantage on a saving throw against a spell you cast on them. You regain all cores sacrificed in this way at the end of a long rest, and cannot use a core sacrificed in this way again for any of your subclass features until you've finished a long rest.
