Warlord: Difference between revisions

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.

'''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 you move after you roll initiative, you can bring a number of willing creatures equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1) within 20 feet of you with you. These creatures move the same distance and direction that you move but cannot move farther than their speed would allow. Creature 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).

'''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.

'''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.

'''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. You can use Booming Shout a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, regaining expended uses at the end of a long rest.
