Soul-Binder

Soul-Binder

Loneliness. Weakness. The call to adventure. For most people these are passing moments, a part of the ups and downs of everyday life. There are those however, who are defined by these feelings. Whether feeling alone in a crowd, powerless to get what they deserve or eager to see all things the world has to offer, soul binders have taken a drastic step to solve their problems. Unable to meet the demands of the world alone they choose to give up a piece of their soul to bond with another creature and face life's challenges together.
When soul binders bind themselves to another creature, they do so for life. They will stand together, always, two against the world. They will always look out for each other, because in the end, they need each other. Whether they like it or not. The companion will often be the stronger of the pair, but without the binder to guide it, the companion is nowhere near its full potential.
The process of binding your soul with another creature can be quite taxing, especially if the creature isn't willing at first. Some people disappear into the wild to find a forest animal willing to bind, and return months later with a beast by their side willing to do anything for them, while others would rather summon a creature of untold horror, force it into submission, then bind the creature to follow their command.
However, having your soul bound to another creature means that your soul will never be full again. There is always something missing. It gets even more apparent for the soul binder when their companion is far away from them, and can sometimes be physically painful for them to be a great distance from their companion.

You and your Companion can work together like a pack to overcome overwhelming odds. When you make an Attack against a creature within 5ft of your Companion and you have at least one use of your Call of the Wild feature, you can use your Reaction to give yourself Advantage on the Attack. If you hit on this Attack, you choose a benefit from your Call of the Wild feature to gain and you expend a use of the feature.
Additionally, if you reduce a creature to 0 Hit Points, you regain a use of your Call of the Wild feature.

Wild Edicts

11th Level Bond of the Wild Feature
You can command your Companion with the guidance of nature itself. The following commands are added to your Edict options:

• Hold Out! Until the end of your next turn, whenever your Companion takes Damage, it reduces the Damage by an amount equal to one roll of your Edict Die.
• Take 'Em Down! Your Companion can use its Action to make a number of Attacks equal to one roll of your Edict Die. Each of these Attacks must target a different creature, and it can move between these Attacks.

Extra Attack

14th Level Bond of the Wild Feature
You can make an additional Attack whenever you take the Attack Action.

Alpha Call

15th Level Bond of the Wild Feature
You can call upon the spirits of nature to fight and hunt alongside you and your companion. You can use an Action to cast the Summon Beast Spell at 5th Level twice, without expending a Spell Slots or requiring Material Components. When you cast the Spell in this way, the Duration is reduced to 1 Minute, it doesn't require Concentration, and the spirit's Attacks are magical for the purposes of overcoming Resistance and Immunity. Once you use this Action, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest.
