Fighter
Base Class: Fighter

Deathbringers are an elite group of warriors trained to kill their enemies with a single, seemingly random strike in combat. They also wield a form of magical powers derived from the Lord of Murder, which grants them the ability to magically instil the fear of death in their enemies and then expand that fear to the point of freezing even the hardiest of warriors in their tracks.

Deathbringer Assault

Beginning when you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you learn to finish fights with a single brutal and seemingly random strike. Whenever you make a successful attack with a melee weapon you can choose to roll an additional d20. On a roll of 20, your attack deals double damage and ignores any damage resistance that your target may have.

Fearmonger

Starting at 3rd level, you are immune to being frightened.

Terror of the Murder God

At 7th level, you learn to embody the fear of death in all living things. As an action you can magically bring out that fear in creatures within 30 feet of you. Any creature of your choice within the effect must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus) or become frightened of you for one minute. If a creature ends its turn in a location where it doesn't have line of sight to you, it may reattempt the saving throw, ending the effect on a success.

Strength of the Oppressor

Beginning at 10th level, when you roll a d20 for your Deathbringer Assault feature against a creature that is frightened, it succeeds on a roll of 19 or 20.

Paralyzing Gaze

At 15th level, you become able to freeze prey that locks eyes with you. As a bonus action, you may target a creature that is frightened and that you can see, if that creature can see you it must then succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus) or be stunned until the end of your next turn. Creatures under the effect of your Terror of the Murder God feature have disadvantage on this saving throw.

Champion of Bhaal

When you reach 18th level, your affinity with the powers granted to you by the Lord of Murder has grown such that are improved beyond the measure of others of your ilk. When your Deathbringer Assault feature activates, it now quadruples the damage of your attack, instead of doubling it, and the attack now ignores damage resistances as well as damage immunities.

Additionally, the range of your Terror of the Murder God feature is increased to 60 feet.
