Bulwark Warden Features

Bulwark Warden

Unyielding protectors with unmatched defensive capabilities, the Bulwarks are the steadfast guardians of the battlefield, shielding allies from harm.

The Bulwark is the embodiment of defense, using both shield and armor to become an impenetrable bastion on the frontlines.

Bulwarks are masters of positioning, able to intercept attacks and mitigate damage through sheer tenacity and tactical awareness.

You have mastered the art of drawing enemy attention and placing yourself between danger and your allies. You gain proficiency in the Perception skill.

Taunting Leap. When a creature within 15 feet per tier of play of you is targeted by an attack or a spell that affects only one creature, you can use your reaction to teleport to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of that creature. The triggering attack or spell targets you instead. The protected ally gains resistance to all damage until the start of your next turn.

Your Aegis class feature now works against all types of damage, including magical and nonmagical sources.

If you aren’t incapacitated, you can add your shield's AC bonus to any Dexterity saving throw you or an ally within 10 feet of you makes against a spell or other harmful effect. If you are not wielding a shield, you instead add +2 to the saving throw.

Geo Warden Features

Geo Warden

The Geo Warden symbolizes the earth's strength. By harnessing stone and soil, they protect allies with determination, forming a living shield. Their bond with the land allows them to wear Geode Armor for strong defense, and their Safeguard ability extends protection to those in need.

As they grow stronger, the Geo Warden channels earth's raw power into offensive bursts like the Cataclysmic Charge, turning defenses into devastating strikes. This blend of defense and offense makes the Geo Warden a versatile protector, serving as the immovable cornerstone of any adventuring party.

Safeguard (1st Level Feature)

You gain proficiency in the Nature skill. In addition, when a creature within 30 feet of you takes damage, you can use your reaction to extend your protective Aegis to them. Until the start of your next turn, the chosen creature gains the effects of your Aegis class feature. You lose this bonus while the Aegis is active.

Wrath of the Storm (1st Level Feature)

You can thunderously rebuke attackers. When a creature within 5 feet of you that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to cause the creature to make a Dexterity saving throw.

The creature takes 2d8 cold, fire, lightning, or thunder (your choice) on a failed saving throw, and half as much damage on a successful one.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Aura of the Storm (3rd Level Feature)

As a bonus action on your turn you can activate a storm around yourself. Choose desert, sea, or tundra. This aura lasts for 1 minute, and can be cast a number of times per long rest equal to your proficiency bonus.

Your aura's effect depends on that chosen environment, as detailed below. You can change your environment choice whenever you gain a level in this class. If your aura's effects require a saving throw, the DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier.

Sea: When this effect is activated, you can choose one other creature you can see in your aura. The target must make a Dexterity saving throw. The target takes a number of d6 lightning damage equal to your proficiency bonus on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Tundra: When this effect is activated, each creature of your choice in your aura gains a number of temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus, as icy spirits inure it to suffering.

The aura extends 10 feet from you in every direction, but not through total cover.

Rending Gale (6th Level Feature)

When you deal cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage to a Large or smaller creature, you can also push it up to 10 feet away from you.

Desert: For the duration, creatures that hit you with an attack take fire damage equal to your Warden level.
Sea: When you hit a creature in your aura with an attack, you can use your reaction to force that creature to make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is knocked prone, as if struck by a wave.
Tundra: Whenever the effect of your Storm Aura is activated, you can choose one creature you can see in the aura. That creature must succeed on a Strength saving throw, or its speed is reduced to 0 until the start of your next turn, as magical frost covers it.

Raging Storm (14th Level Feature)

You can activate your storm at the start of your turn instead of using a bonus action.

Eye of the Tempest (19th Level Feature)

You become a living conduit of the storm’s fury, able to unleash its wrath across the battlefield.

While your Wrath of the Storm or Aura of the Storm is active, you can increase its radius up to 120 feet. As a bonus action on your turn, you can reduce the radius to any value between 10 and 120 feet, or dismiss the effect entirely.

When activating Wrath of the Storm or triggering damage from Aura of the Storm, the damage increases to 8d8 of the chosen type. Creatures that succeed on a saving throw take half damage as normal.

Judgment (3rd Level Feature)

As a bonus action, you can mark a creature you can see within 60 feet. The mark lasts for 1 minute. While marked, whenever you or an ally hits the target with a weapon attack or deals damage to it with a spell, the target takes additional radiant damage equal to your proficiency bonus. A creature can only take this additional damage once per turn per attacker.

If the marked creature drops to 0 hit points before the duration ends, you can use a bonus action on a later turn to mark another creature you can see.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Commanding Advance (6th Level Feature)

Oathkeeper’s Ascent (19th Level Feature)

Your presence inspires destiny itself. When you or an ally within 60 feet of you rolls a 1 on an attack roll, saving throw, or ability check, you can use your reaction to treat the roll as if it were a 20 instead.

Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest. However, you can also expend a use of your Judgment feature to use it again.
