As an ACTION, once per turn a character has the ability to make one of their melee strikes an "OGRE STRIKE". The character will make a single melee attack like normal, but using this ability makes the attack hit every creature, including allies, within a 10ft x 10ft cube. The player must declare that their melee attack will be an Ogre Strike before the attack roll is made. If a creature hit by this attack is size medium or smaller, the creature is flung 5ft back.
During COMBAT, if any of the defenders have an AC that is equal to or greater than the attack roll, the attack misses. During ROLEPLAY, if any of the defenders have an AC that is greater than the attack roll, the attack misses. Every defender within the 10ft x 10ft cube that the attack hits will take full damage, and every defender the attack misses will take no damage.
A character's total number of USES for this ability is equal to their PROFICIENCY BONUS; they regain 1 use of this ability per short rest or they regain all uses of this ability per long rest.
