##### Designer notes
The *Tome of Battle, The Book of Nine Swords* (ToB) was my favorite players supplement for 3.5E. With the introduction of strikes, boosts, counters and stances the martial classes suddenly felt way more heroic and exciting to play. After a long D&D hiatus, I came back to 5E. I was surprised and quite disappointed to learn that WotC didn't introduce similar mechanics to the core martial classes in 5E. After playing several campaigns, our playgroup shared an opinion disappointment with regards to martial classes; they were lacking exciting combat options, especially mid to high level. This inspired me to try and redesign the martial classes with a similar philosophy to the original 3.5 ToB. Soon after I started the project in October 2022, the first One D&D playtest was released. Over the months as more One D&D playtests released, I decided to take certain elements and incorporate them in this redesign.
___
Note that the **Monk** is also part of the Warrior group, but its redesign still a work in progress.

##### Feat Redesign
These classes and rules should be used together with the [The Feat Compendium](https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-N7fFuaXpOjvwH9Pdl2R). This contains a redesign of the traditional Feat system, which includes modal feats with so-called subfeatures you can choose from. For example, the new Fighting Styles refer to these subfeatures.

## The Barbarian

As a Barbarian, you gain the following class features.

#### Hit Points

**Hit Dice:** 1d12 per Barbarian level <br>
**Hit Points at 1st Level:** 12 + your Constitution modifier <br>
**Hit Points at Higher Levels:** 1d12 (or 7) + your Constitution modifier

#### Proficiencies & Training
**Armor Training:** Light Armor, Medium Armor, Shields <br>
**Weapons:** Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons <br>
**Saving Throws:** Strength, Constitution <br>
**Skills:** Choose two skills from Animal Handling, Athletics, Intimidation, Nature, Perception, and Survival <br>
**Tools:** None

### Brutal Superiority
You learn certain special combat abilities referred to as maneuvers, which in turn are fueled by your Stamina.

**Maneuvers:** Maneuvers are powerful combat abilities that expend Stamina to typically enhance an attack in some way, or provide another type of powerful benefit. As you gain this class feature, you learn two maneuvers from the Brutal, Martial or Warcry groups. As you gain additional class levels, your learn additional maneuvers as shown in the Barbarian table. To execute an attack maneuver you must be proficient with any weapon used in conjunction with it. You can only use one maneuver per turn. When you gain a level in this class, you can replace one maneuver you know with a different one.

**Stamina:** You start with two Stamina. At later levels, the amount of Stamina you have available is based on to the proficiency bonus gained from levels in classes belonging to the Warrior Group. You can expend Stamina to fuel maneuvers and certain other features. Each time you roll initiative, or take a Short or Long Rest, you regain all your expended Stamina.

**Saving Throws:** Some of your maneuvers require your target to make a saving throw to resist the maneuver’s effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

**Maneuver save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier (see List of Maneuvers section).

### Rage
In battle, you fight with primal ferocity. On your turn, you can enter a Rage as a Bonus Action. While raging, you gain the following benefits if you aren't wearing Heavy Armor:

* You have advantage on Strength checks and saving throws.
* You have resistance to Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing damage.
* When you deal damage with a weapon or unarmed strike using Strength, you gain a bonus to the damage equal to your Rage Damage.
* You can't cast spells, or concentrate while Raging.

<Br>

Your Rage lasts for up to 10 minutes. It ends early if you are knocked unconscious. You can also end your Rage on your turn as a Bonus action.

You start with two uses of Rage, which increases as you gain levels in Barbarian. You regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

### Unarmoured Defence

* **Barbaric Stature.** You may use your Strength modifier in place of your Charisma modifier when making Intimidation skills checks.

<Br>

* **Shamanic Visions.** You may use your Strength modifier in place of the default modifier when making Animal Handling and Nature skills checks.

* **Hunter-Gatherer.** You may use your Strength modifier in place of your Wisdom modifier when making Perception and Survival skills checks.

### Reckless Attack
Also at 2nd level, you can throw aside all concern for defense to attack with ferocity. When you make your first attack on your turn, you can decide to attack recklessly. Doing so gives you Advantage on attack rolls using Strength until the start of your next turn, but attack rolls against you have Advantage during that same time.

### Primal Path
At 3rd level, you choose a path that shapes the nature of your rage. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 6th, 10th, 14th and 18th levels.

\pagebreakNum

### Feat
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th and 19th level, you gain a feat of your choice.

### Extra Attack 
At 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action.

### Fast Movement
Your speed increases by 10 feet while you aren’t wearing Heavy Armor.

### Primal Instinct

At 11th level, when you have Advantage on a Strength skill check, Saving Throw, or an attack roll using Strength, you can reroll one of the dice once.

### Undying Rage
At 13th level, your Rage can keep you fighting despite grievous wounds. If you drop to 0 Hit Points while your Rage is active and don’t die outright, you can make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw. If you succeed, your Hit Points instead change to a number equal to twice your Barbarian level.

Each time you use this feature after the first, the DC increases by 5. When you finish a Short Rest or Long Rest, the DC resets to 10.

### Seething Fury
At 15th level, when you roll Initiative you regain one use of Rage, and you may choose to immediately enter Rage.

### Undeniable Strength
At 17th level, if your total for a Strength check or Strength saving throw is less than your Strength score, you can use that score in place of the total.

### Primal Might
Beginning at 20th level, you embody primal power. Your Strength and Constitution scores increase by 4, and their maximum is	now	30.

# Path of the Beast
Barbarians who walk the Path of the Beast draw their rage from a bestial presence coursing through their blood, causing physical transformations when they draw on its power. The source of this power might be a primal spirit, the touch of lycanthropy, or descent from a shapeshifter.

### Beast Within
Starting at 3rd level, when you enter your Rage, you undergo a bestial transformation that lasts for as long as your Rage. You manifest one of the following features (your choice):

* **Bite:** You gain a bite attack, which is a natural weapon. Your bite attack deals 1d10 Piercing damage. Once on each of your turns when you hit a creature no more than one size category larger than you with your bite, you can attempt to Grapple the creature as a Bonus Action.

* **Claws:** Your hands transform in razor-sharp claws, which you can use as natural weapons if the hand is empty. Your claws deal 1d8 Slashing damage. Your claws count as Light melee Slashing weapons, and if both hands are free it is considered as two-weapon fighting.

* **Hide:** You add half your Rage Bonus to the natural armor bonus granted by your Barbarian *Unarmoured Defense*.
___
At 6th level you can manifest two features when entering Rage, and at 10th level you manifest all three.

# Path of the Berserker
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.

### Berserking
Starting at 3rd level, you enter a frenzied state when you Rage.

**Frenzy.** While Raging, you gain the effects of *Reckless Attack* on each of your turns, and you can make a single melee attack as a Bonus Action against a creature adjacent to you. However, whenever you miss with that attack, the creature you missed may use its Reaction to make a melee attack against you.

**Barter in Blood.** When you reduce an enemy to 0 hit points while Raging, you may choose to either regain a spent Hit Dice or expend a Hit Dice to immediately regain Hit Points. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Rage Damage bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

### Mindless Rage
At 6th level, while Raging, you gain resistance to Psychic damage and can’t be Charmed or Frightened. If you are Charmed or Frightened when you enter your Rage, those conditions end.

### Reckless Abandon
Starting at 10th level, when a creature within 5 feet of you hits you with an attack, that creature provokes an Opportunity attack from you.

### Gratuitous Violence
At 14th level, when u use your *Barter in Blood* feature, you may rip your foe apart in a display of gruesome violence, instilling fear in those around you.

Enemies within 30 feet of the slain creature that can see it must succeed a Wisdom saving throw or become Frightened of you for 1 minute. The Frightened creature can repeat this saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. The DC is equal to 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Strength modifier.

### Flawless Savagery
Starting at 18th level, you can make Opportunity attacks without using your Reaction.

<div class='footnote'>Art: BaViPower</div>

\pagebreakNum

# Path of the Slayer
Even among the Barbarian tribes, Slayers are known for their hulking stature and the monstrous weapons they wield with seeming ease. Their colossal arms are often relics of giants or trophies from vanquished beasts, and symbolize their dominance on the battlefield. With unparalleled might, the Slayer cleaves through armies with howling swings, leaving behind a trail of terror and devastation wherever he treads.

### Granite Grip
Starting at 3rd level, your immense strength allows you to wield monstrous weapons with surprising easy.
* You can use normal sized weapons with the two-handed property in one hand. It counts as both held in one hand and two hands for other abilities and Feats.

* While wielding an oversized two-handed melee weapon, you suffer a -6 penalty on Attack rolls instead of having Disadvantage. This penalty is reduced by an amount equal to your Strength modifier (to a minimum of 0).

* You count as one size category larger for the purpose of carrying capacity, and for Grappling, Pushing and Dragging creatures or objects.

### Hulking Build
At 6th level, you learn how to use your colossal weapon to its full potential. While wielding a two-handed melee weapon, it is treated as having the Reach property.

In addition, when you wield an oversized weapon, it provides you half cover.

### Overwhelming Offense
At 10th level, your attack land with tremendous force, knocking your foes aback. When you hit a creature with a Heavy melee weapon that is no more than one size category larger than you, you may push it up to 15 feet away from you. You can then Move up to half your Speed straight toward the target without provoking Opportunity Attacks.

### Severing Steel
At 14th level, you maim through your foes, severing them to pieces with tremendous force. After you deal damage to a creature with a Heavy or Oversized melee weapon, if it has fewer remaining hit points than your Strength score, it takes extra damage of the same type equal to your Strength score. You may carry over any excess damage from that attack onto an adjacent creature of your choosing. This can activate *Severing Steel* again to repeat the effect.

### Titanic Stature
At 18th level, if you are smaller than Large, you permanently become Large. Your Strength and maximum Strength score are increase by 2.

\columnbreak

> ##### Oversized Weapons
> The official rules (278 DMG) treat oversized weapons as one full size category larger. As a weapon increases in size, the weapons damage dice are added again for every step above Medium.

# Path of Wild Magic
Many places in the multiverse are unbound and run rampant with chaotic magic; the elemental planes, limbo, and many other such realms of innate magic power radiate with such forces that it can spill over. Barbarians draw strength from their raw chaotic rage, this however makes susceptible to these wild influences, with some barbarians being transformed by the magic. These magic-suffused barbarians walk the Path of Wild Magic.

### Magic Awareness
At 3rd level, you can open your awareness to the presence of magic. As a Magic action, you gain the benefits of *Detect Magic*. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Rage bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

In addition, you are treated as being under the effect of *Detect Magic* while Raging.

### Wild Surge
When you Rage, you roll a d12 on the Wild Magic table on the following page to determine the magic effect you produce. 
You do not need to provide any components or maintain concentration for any of these effects, even if the mentioned spell normally would require it. Any persisting effects end immediately when your Rage ends.
___
If the Wild Magic effect requires a saving throw, the effect is determined as follows

* **Spell save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier.

* **Spell attack modifier** = Your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier.

\columnbreak

### Nexus of Chaos
At 6th level, your connection with wild magic strengthens, making it both more powerful and volatile. From now on, when you roll on the Wild Magic Table use a d20 instead of a d12 to determine the effect.

### Bolster Magic
At 10th level, you may use your Bonus Action to touch a creature to instill one of the following effects:
* For 1 minute, when that creature casts a spell, it is treated as if one higher level spell slot was used to cast it.

* Until the start of your next turn, if that creature would make a saving throw to resist a spell or magical effect, it makes the saving throw with Disadvantage.
___
This feature shares its number of uses with your *Magical Awareness* feature.

### Controlled Chaos
At level 14, you gain limited control over the magic within you. Whenever you roll on the Wild Magic table, you can roll the die twice and choose which of the two effects to unleash. If you roll the same number on both dice, you can ignore the number and choose any effect on the table.

### Maelstrom Wielder
At level 18, by exerting yourself you can gain control over the magic within you. At any time after you rolled on the Wild Magic table, you can expand one of your uses of Rage to reroll any number of the dice and roll an additional one. You may choose up to two outcomes to manifest. If you roll the same number more than once, you can ignore any two dice and choose any effect on the table.

At 18th level, when you use *Improved Battle Arcana* to cast a spell of 2nd level or higher, you may combine two spells slots of lower levels to cast that spell. The combined spell slots must be equal or higher than the level of the spell cast this way.

In addition, when you *Adrenaline Rush*, you immediately recover three levels worth of expended spell slots, divided as you choose.

> If you DM allows for it, you can make other combinations. In such case it is advised to exchange any of the default schools for any other schools. Do note that this might impact the effectiveness of some Mage Knight class features.

A Fighting Style is a particular way of fighting that grants Fighters unique benefits, but may carry disadvantages. Unlike maneuvers, Fighting Styles do not require Stamina, but are limited in that you can only maintain one at a time. All the Fighting Styles you know are available to you at all times.

# Rules Changes & Additions
This chapter contains changes to base combat rules. In line with most other rule changes presented in this document, the aim of these changes is to make combat more tactical, exciting, intuitive and balanced. Choices will have more weight to them and revolve more around pro's and con's.

<br>

### Critical Hits
When a player scores a critical hit with an unarmed or weapon attack, that player adds the maximum value of the base damage die as extra damage. All other damage dice are rolled twice and added together.

For example, if you would score a critical hit as a level 1 Rogue using sneak attack (1d6) with a Rapier (1d8), you would double the sneak attack dice (2d6) and add 8 extra damage (maximum of a d8) to the normal base weapon damage roll.

### Difficult Terrain
If a space is Difficult Terrain, every foot of movement in that space costs 1 extra foot. For example, moving 5 feet through Difficult Terrain costs 10 feet of movement. Difficult Terrain isn’t cumulative; either a space is Difficult Terrain or it isn’t. A space is Difficult Terrain for a creature if the space contains any of the following:
* Creature that isn’t Tiny
* Furniture that is Small or larger
* Heavy snow or ice
* Heavy undergrowth
* Liquid that’s between shin- and waist-deep (any deeper and you need to Swim)
* Narrow opening that is sized for a creature one Size smaller
* Pit or another gap of 2–5 feet
* Rubble
* Slope of 20 degrees or more
* The DM may determine that other things count as Difficult Terrain based on the examples here.

<Br>

### Equipment Handling
An adventurers equipment can be carried in different ways. Some equipment is likely stored away for practical transport. Yet, a warriors favored weapon is more likely holstered or sheathed, to be available at the ready. There is limited space however, to equip items in such a manner. This section describes how this is handled and why it matters what weapons you have sheathed:

* **Equipment Slots.** You have three slots for holding armaments. These can be used for sheathing, stowing or holstering weapons and/or a Shield. Non-Heavy weapons and a Shield take up one slot, while Heavy weapons take up two. Exchanging a sheathed armaments with an unsheathed one you have packed away in your adventuring gear costs 1 Action.

* **Drawing & Stowing Weapons.** Drawing a sheathed weapon or stowing a held weapon, can be done once on your turn freely. For each hand you have free, or use to hold a weapon, you can draw or stow a weapon that lacks the Heavy property, respectively. This means for example, you can draw or stow two one-handed weapons simultaneously. Drawing or stowing a weapon with the Heavy property requires two hands instead.

* **Donning or Doffing a Shield.** It takes an Action to Don or Doff a sheathed Shield. You only benefit from a Shields AC if you have take the full time to don it. You can't drop a donned shield.

* **Throwing Weapons.** If a weapon has the Thrown property, you can throw the weapon to make a ranged attack, and you can draw a weapon with the Thrown property as part of the attack.

* **Picking Up Items.** A creature can pick up and equip an item from the ground at its feet by using its Bonus Action. When a creature picks up an item from the ground while it is within reach of a hostile creature, it provokes an opportunity attack from the hostile creature.

<Br>

### Flanking
When a creature and at least one ally are within 5 feet of the same enemy on opposite sides, that enemy is considered flanked. Each of the creatures flanking has Advantage on melee attacks against it.

To determine whether two allied creatures are considered on opposite sides and thus flanking a hostile creature, trace a line between the one of the allied creatures and the center of the hostile creature that is being surrounded. If the line passes directly through the square of the ally, or the ally is in a square next to the crossed square, than the creature is being Flanked.

<Br>

### Healing Potions
You may use your Bonus Action to use a healing potion normally, or you may spend a Full Action to gain maximize healing effect from the potion instead.

\pagebreakNum

### Multiclassing & Martial Maneuvers
When a player decided to multiclass, the following rules apply for maneuvers and Stamina:

* **Maneuvers Known.** The number of maneuvers known from different classes are added together.

* **Superiority Dice.** The amount of Stamina you have available is based on your proficiency bonus gained from classes belonging to the Warrior group. For example, if you have 5 levels in Fighter and 4 levels in Barbarian, your Warrior level is considered 9. At level 9, your proficiency bonus is +4 and thus you will have 4 Stamina. On the other hand, if you would have 5 levels in Wizard and 4 levels in Fighter, your Warrior level would be 4. At level 4 you have a proficiency bonus of +2, and thus your would only have 2 Stamina.

<Br>

### Resting
Heroic though they might be, Adventurers can’t spend every hour of the day in the thick of Exploration, Social Interaction, and Combat. They need rest — time to sleep and eat, tend their wounds, refresh their minds and spirits for Spellcasting, and brace themselves for further adventure.

Adventurers can take Short Rests in the midst of an Adventuring day and a Long Rest to end the day.

\columnbreak

#### Long Rest
A Long Rest is a period of extended downtime at least 8 hours long during which a creature sleeps for at least 6 hours and performs no more than 2 hours of light activity, such as reading, talking, eating, or standing watch. 
___
**Benefits of a Long Rest:** <Br>

* **Recovery.** You regain all Hit Points and half your Hit Dice, rounded up.

* **HP Max Restored.** If your Hit Point Maximum was reduced, it returns to normal.
* **Ability Scores Restored.** If any of your Ability Scores were reduced, they return to normal.
___
A creature can’t benefit from more than one Long Rest in a 24-hour period, and a creature must have at least 1 Hit Point at the start of the rest to gain its benefits.

#### Short Rest
A Short Rest is a period of Downtime, at least 15 minutes, during which a character does nothing more strenuous than eating, drinking, reading, and tending to wounds.
___
**Interrupting the Rest** <Br>
If a Long Rest is interrupted by combat or by 1 hour of walking, casting Spells, or similar activity, the rest confers no benefit and must be restarted; however, if the rest was at least 1 hour long before the interruption, the creature gains the benefits of a Short Rest.

___
A character can spend one or more Hit Dice at the end of a Short Rest, up to the character’s maximum number of Hit Dice, which is equal to the character’s level.

For each Hit Die spent in this way, the player rolls the die and adds the character’s Constitution modifier to it. The character regains Hit Points equal to the total. The player can decide to spend an additional Hit Die after each roll.

A character can benefit from a limited number of Short Rests in between Long Rests. This is limited to a number of times equal to one plus half your proficiency bonus.

### Two-Weapon Fighting
When you take the Attack action and attack with a Light weapon in one hand (main-hand) the first time each turn, you can also attack with a Light weapon in the other hand (off-hand) as part of the same Attack action. You don’t add your attack modifier to the damage of your off-hand weapon unless that modifier is negative. If either weapon has the Thrown property, you can throw the weapon, instead of making a melee attack with it.

### Unarmed Strike

An Unarmed Strike is a Melee Attack that involves you using your body to damage, grapple, or shove a target within 5 feet of you, and thus does not necessarily require your to have free hands. Whenever you use your Unarmed Strike, choose one of the following options for its effect:

* **Damage.** You make an attack roll against the target. Your bonus to hit equals your Strength modifier + your Proficiency Bonus. On a hit, the target takes Bludgeoning damage equal to 1 + your Strength modifier.

* **Grapple**. The target must succeed on a Strength or Dexterity saving throw (it chooses which), or it has the Grappled condition. The DC for the saving throw and any escape attempts equals 8 + your Strength modifier + your Proficiency Bonus. This grapple is possible only if the target is no more than one size larger than you and if you have a hand free to grab it. 
* **Shove.** The target must succeed on a Strength or Dexterity saving throw (it chooses which), or you either push the target 5 feet away or cause it to have the Prone condition. The DC for the saving throw equals 8 + your Strength modifier + your Proficiency Bonus. This shove is possible only if the target is no more than one size larger than you

## List of Conditions
Conditions are temporary states that can affect a creature's ability to act or interact with the environment. These conditions can be inflicted by spells, abilities, traps, or environmental hazards, and can often also be cured by certain spells or abilities. This section contains a list of different conditions.

### At Death's Door
When a player falls to 0 hit points, that player is at Death's Door, also referred to as Dying, and experiences the following effects:

* **Dying.** You have 0 Hit Points and the Unconscious condition. Death's Door ends if you regain any Hit Points.

* **Death Saving Throws.** At the start of each of your turns, you must make a Death Saving Throw; roll a d20. If the roll is 10 or higher, you succeed. Otherwise, you fail. A success or failure has no effect by itself. The successes and failures also don’t need to be consecutive; keep track of both until you collect three of a kind, the effects of which are described below. When this condition ends on you, reset the number of success and failures to zero. 
* **Hidden Rolls.** Unlike normal saving throws, death saving throws are made hidden from the other players.
* **Critical Failure.** If you roll a 1 on your Death save, you gain two failures instead of one. 
* **Critical Successes.** If you roll a 20 on your Death save, you immediately regain 1 hit point and lose the Unconscious condition. 
* **Three Failures.** On your third failure, you die.
* **Three Successes.** On your third successful Death save, you regain 1 Hit Point, but you are still Unconscious and start a Short Rest. You remain Unconscious until you regain more Hit Points or until another creature uses an action to administer first aid to you, which requires a successful DC 10 Wisdom (Medicine) check.
* **Damage.** If you take any damage while at Death's Door, you suffer one death saving throw failure instead. If you suffer a critical hit, you instead suffer two death saving throw failures.
* **Exhausting Trauma.** When *At Death's Door* ends on you, you are exhausted from the grievous wounds you suffered. You gain one level of Exhaustion for every Death saving throw you failed, with a minimum of 1.
