The Brave

To be a brave is not just an occupation but a title. It is irrelevant to a Brave whether they are outgunned or outmanned, their cunning guerrilla tactics and rapid attack speed will more than make up for any short comings. In our world, a brave is what the native American warriors of the past were called, but now in this world, the title befits anyone who battles with their tactics. Braves often times places great value in the speed and veracity of their attacks as the faster their foes die, the better it is for them. While many use steeds and other tools for hit and run tactics, some stand strong and steadfast, placing themselves right in the heart of battle

War paint

You wear war paint that grants you powers in and out of combat, the colours and placement vary but each design has one of the chosen symbols below, each granting a different and unique ability. After each long rest, you can choose to replace your current design with another and at later levels, you can wear multiple designs

Note: Not all of these symbols are real and the meanings for each real symbol may be augmented for players to better recognize their effects such as the lightning bolt now being tied to speed.

The War Wheel

Many Braves value the traditional medicine wheel, but no two groups medicine wheels have the same meanings, your one is no different. In some way unique to you, the war wheel is openly visible, and can be seen moving. When in combat, at the beginning of your turn, roll 1d4, depending on the number you roll, something happens, each number/section on the wheel corresponds to a different affect or outcome which can benefit you in combat. While you cannot dictate the effects that the war wheel gives you, you can choose to have the war wheel active or not at the beginning of each turn before choosing to roll your 1d4

1: You are resistant to bludgeoning, piercing, and shashilng damage until the end of combat or the war wheel revolves to the next section/number

2: For each attack that successfully lands on a creature, you do an additional 2 damage, additionally you also add +2 to all your attack rolls

3: You can disengage as a bonus action and cannot be hit by an opportunity attack until the end of combat or the war wheel revolves to the next section/number
