Base Class: Fighter
The continent of Grimoria is a strange land where humans have not yet traveled. The citizens here, while humanoid, share ancestry with the beast and fey. Their culture developed to appreciate the art of dance. Each of the great kingdoms have specialized a powerful and dangerous dancing art. The Charm Dancers of Myosia, the War Dancers of Harwihl, the Arcana Dancers of Yumeji, and the Shadow Dancers of Bifjoria. The mighty War Dancers of Harwihl are akin to fighters, favoring strength over elegance. They beauty in their dancing style is its over powering force.
Strength in Finesse
As a War Dancer you have honed both your strength and finesse. You may now use any weapon as though it were a finesse weapon. Instead of using strength you may use dexterity for all weapon attack rolls and weapon damage rolls.
Dancers Dodge
War Dancers' cunning and dexterity make them difficult targets to hit in battle. As you master the speed and beauty of the war dance you learn to avoid some damage from the blows you receive. You are able to use the uncanny dodge reaction
It Takes Three
When you or an ally target the same creature in a round with a weapon or spell attack, gain advantage on the roll. If an ally hits an enemy adjacent to you with a weapon or spell attack you may use your reaction to make a melee weapon attack against them. If you hit, the targets speed is reduced to zero.
Dancer's Glory
Your presence on the battle field is awe inspiring. Many find themselves incapable of reacting when you attack. When making a melee weapon attack you may use your bonus action to stun your target granting you advantage on the attack roll. On hit the target must make a CHA saving throw of 10 plus your CHA modifier plus your proficiency bonus. On a failed save they are paralyzed until the end of your next turn, on a success they are stunned. You may do this twice per short rest (three times at level 18.) Creatures who have been previously targeted by this effect during the same combat have advantage on the save.
Keep the Beat
Experienced War dancers are deadly foes who take advantage of each successive blow they land on an enemy. When hitting the same target multiple times with a weapon attack they take increasingly more damage. for each successive blow add 1d4 to your damage roll (maximum chain CHA modifier plus 1 (minimum 2.)) On a failed hit all extra damage die are lost and the chain must be restarted.
