Briceus the Gentle

Regeneration. Briceus regains 10 hit points at the start of his turn. If Briceus takes fire or necrotic damage, this trait doesn’t function at the start of Briceus's next turn. Briceus's body is destroyed only if he starts his turn with 0 hit points and doesn’t regenerate.

Rejuvenation. When Briceus's body is destroyed, his soul lingers. After 24 hours, the soul rises from the ashes of his ruined homestead and regains all his hit points. While the soul is bodiless, a wish spell can be used to force the soul to go to the afterlife and not return.

Turn Immunity. Briceus is immune to effects that turn undead.

Vengeful Tracker. Briceus knows the distance to and direction of the creature against which he seeks revenge, even if the creature and Briceus are on different planes of existence. If the creature being tracked by Briceus dies, he knows. He will seek out the killers to thank them and explain.

Multiattack. The Briceus makes two broken sword attacks or two fist attacks.

Broken Sword, two-handed. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5.ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d10+4) slashing damage. When Briceus lands a blow with this weapon on his vengeance target, the weapon turns into a glowing full length two-handed greatsword of radiant energy. Hit: 10 (2d10) radiant damage. This energy cannot hurt anyone else but his target.

Fist. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature against which Briceus has sworn vengeance, the target takes an extra 14 (4d6) bludgeoning damage. Instead of dealing damage, Briceus can grapple the target (escape DC 14) provided the target is Large or smaller.

Vengeful Glare. Briceus targets one creature it can see within 30 feet of it and against which it has sworn vengeance. The target must make a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, the target is paralyzed until Briceus deals damage to it, or until the end of Briceus's next turn. When the paralysis ends, the target is frightened of the revenant for 1 minute. The frightened target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, with disadvantage if it can see the revenant, ending the frightened condition on itself on a success.

Ancient Oath. When a willing ally of Briceus takes damage that would drop them below 1 hit point, Briceus will take it instead regardless of his unwell-being. Knowing in death he will return again.
