Maniac

Nobody knows where the Maniacs first came from, but they have the strange ability to turn the pain of their enemies into defensive power. This ability is known as Hysteria.

Excitement

Every 5 damage dealt generates 1 Hysteria, or HYS, which gives you 5 temporary HP and increases your AC by 1. If one round passes and the required damage isn’t dealt or taken, you lose 1 HYS.

You cannot wear armor and gain this benefit.

Outburst

As a bonus action, you can give 1 HYS to any friendly creature you can see.

Recklessness

At level 13, every HYS raises your AC by 2.

Insanity

At level 17, your AC permanently increases by 5.
