Traits

Steel-Clad Juggernaut: Once per Long Rest, when Brutus is reduced to 0 HP but not killed outright, he can drop to 1 HP instead.

Spiked Armor: whenever Brutus is hit by a melee attack or hits a target with an unarmed strike, make an attack roll (+7). On a hit, the target takes (1d4) piercing damage.

Frenzied Attacks: When making his first attack roll on his turn, Brutus can decide to attack recklessly, giving him Advantage on attack rolls using Str. until the start of his next turn, but attacks against him have Advantage during that time. Attacks will also deal an additional (1d6) damage of the weapon's type to the first target you hit.

Actions

Multiattack: Brutus can attack twice with his War Hammer.

War Hammer. Melee Weapon Attack: 5 ft., hit (+7), deals (1d10+4) bludgeoning damage and pushes the target 10 ft. away from Brutus if large or smaller.

Trampling Charge: Brutus uses double of any remaining movement that turn to charge through the battlefield. He is allowed to stop at any point, as long as it is not on the same space of another creature. If Brutus runs through an opponent, they make a Dex save (DC 14). On failure, they take (1d8+4) bludgeoning damage plus (1d6+2) piercing damage, and fall prone. On success, they only take half damage. This action imposes disadvantage to opportunity attacks, but successful hits will not impede his movement.

Bonus Actions

Aggressive. As a bonus action, Brutus can move up to his speed toward a hostile creature that he can see.

Battle Rage: Brutus can enter an enraged state 3 times per long rest. While enraged, Brutus has advantage on strength checks/saving throws, and does an additional +2 damage with weapon attacks or unarmed strikes.

Description

A man of few words, Brutus is the unstoppable wall of the Marauders. Once a bodyguard, a noble was murdered while he slept on the job, and has been on the run since when he was accused of killing the noble. He wears the armor at all times to ensure nobody recognizes his face, and few have ever seen him under the helmet. Taking a new bodyguarding opportunity from a chatty Tiefling and his weird pet blob, Brutus follows him around to ensure his schemes don't get too out of hand.

Brutus is an armored hulk of a fighter, drawing into the primal rage of his orcish tribe. His Warhammer is punishing, and when he charges, the world bends to him. He doesn't speak more than he needs too, and underneath the menacing armor is someone who wants to do the right thing, if not for himself, then for his secret fiancé who he hopes to visit the next chance he gets...
