📋 About This Mod
Reavers are warriors who have unlocked a new level of control over their bodies. They command this untapped energy from deep within blood and bone. They terrorize their enemies, feast upon the souls of their opponents to heal their own flesh, and can unleash a blood frenzy that makes them more powerful as they come nearer to their own deaths.
This is a little homebrew I put together based on Dragon Age's Reaver.
While enraged, your weapon attacks deal an additional 1d8 Necrotic damage.
At the 6th level, as a bonus action, you may expend a rage charge to deal 2d6 + your Barbarian class level in Necrotic damage to enemies within 5m.
At the 10th level, you are able to radiate an aura of psychic pain, dealing 2d10 + your Barbarian class level in Psychic damage to enemies within 9m and half as much damage to yourself. While this mode is active, Devour heals for half the damage dealt.
At the 14th level, your weapon attacks now deal 2d8 Necrotic while Blood Frenzy is active.
Adds a homebrewed Barbarian subclass inspired by Dragon Age, with full level 20 progression and suitability for level 12 play. A niche class mod with modest traction (40 endorsements, ~2k downloads) for players seeking new Barbarian options.
