Traits

Hearthwarden. Brother Halric has advantage on saving throws against being frightened. In addition, allied creatures within 5ft of him have advantage on saving throws against being frightened while he is conscious.

Halfling Luck. When Brother Halric rolls a 1 on an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, he can reroll the die and must use the new results.

Halfling Nimbleness. Brother Halric can move through the space of any creature that is of a size larger than him.

Blessing of the Forge. Brother Halric's armor and shield are suffused with gentle divine warmth. This blessing is already reflected in his Armor Class.

Comfort of the Hearth. Brother Halric has advantage on saving throws against effects that would forcibly move him or knock him prone.

Spellcasting. Brother Halric is a spellcaster. His spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save 15, +7 to hit with spell attacks). He has the following cleric spells prepared:

Cantrips (at will): guidance, light, sacred flame, spare the dying

Shield the Faithful (Recharge 5-6). When a creature Brother Halric can see within 5 ft of him is hit by an attack, he interposes himself:

Description

A warm and affable halfling, Brother Halric Bramblehand oversees the Chapel of Saint Ardenna as its Hearthwarden, keeping the fire lit, the food warm, and the doors open to all who seek refuge. Quick with a laugh and slow to anger, he prefers kindness over conflict—but years in Drakkenheim have taught him when to stand firm. When others are threatened, Halric steps forward without bravado, raising his shield not in wrath, but in quiet resolve.

 

Brother Halric can be lifted, carried, or physically moved by allies more easily than a Medium creature, and he willingly allows it to protect others.
