A Vampiric Martial Archetype; the Bloodbrute! (Patreon)

Hello there!

This week I bring to y'all another vampiric themed subclass, the Bloodbrute! Originally created as the Eiferblut, this fighter is a pseudo-barbarian mimic that can Awaken their blood by having minute control over their bodily functions at the cost of sacrificing some hit dice in combat! This encourages the player to utilize their Hit Dice as a tangible resource (while still giving them the ability to heal during Short Rests so they aren't draining all of the Cleric's resources!)

Although they don't have as many cool options as the Psi Fighter or Runeknight, each level will progress and empower the Bloodbrute, as more hit dice translates to potentially more power as well as more opportunities to Awaken in a day, and a higher constituion modifier makes for more powerful Awakened bonuses!
