Prerequisite: Strength 13 or higher.
 

You’ve developed the skills necessary to hold your own in close-quarters grappling. You gain the following grappling maneuvers:

  • Bull Rush. If you move at least 10 feet in a straight line before a grapple check, you may use a bonus action to attempt to knock the target prone as part of that same grapple check. If your grapple check succeeds, the opponent is prone and grappled. If your check succeeds by 5 or more, they are also restrained until the end of your next turn. You are also prone as a result of this maneuver.
  • Crushing Embrace. While attempting to grapple a creature, you can use your bonus action to also attempt to catch your target in a crushing embrace. On a success, the target is grappled and takes bludgeoning damage equal to your Strength modifier at the start of each of your turns. If your check succeeds by 5 or more, the target also has disadvantage to break the grapple.
  • Head Smash. You can use an action to try to stun a creature you have grappled by slamming your head into theirs. When you do so, make another grapple check. If you succeed, the target takes bludgeoning damage equal to your Strength modifier and must make a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) or be stunned until the end of your next turn.
  • Wrist Grab. While you have a creature with humanoid forelimbs grappled, you can use an action to attempt to lock their arms down with your brute strength. When this is done, make grapple check against the target. If you are successful, the target may not make attacks with their arm(s) as long as they are grappled by you. You may attempt to grab one or two forelimbs when you use this maneuver. If you are attempting to restrain two forelimbs, your target has advantage on their contested check. Succeed or fail, the target is still grappled by you. Additionally, the restraint of their forelimbs does not prevent them from making attacks with additional appendages or certain unarmed strikes at the DM's discretion.
