Homebrew Hobgoblin (But better) Species Details

War is the lifeblood of hobgoblins. Its glories are the dreams that inspire them. Its horrors don't feature in their nightmares. Cowardice is more terrible to hobgoblins than dying, for they carry their living acts into the afterlife. A hero in death becomes a hero eternal.

Hobgoblins are intelligent and warlike. But besides that, they are honorable and very, VERY prideful.

Hobgoblin (But better) Traits

Attribute Bonuses and Combat bonuses

Ability Score Increase

Hobgoblins are a warlike race, and as such have honed their bodies and minds to be in fighting form.

Hobgoblin Pride

Hobgoblins are careful not to show weakness in front of their allies, for fear of wounding their own pride. If you miss with an attack roll or fail an ability check or a saving throw, you can gain a bonus to the roll equal to the number of allies within 30 feet of you (maximum bonus of +5). You can use this feature once per short or long rest.

Martial Prowess

Because of your training, you can add your intelligence modifier to your melee attack damage, as long as you are not at disadvantage on the roll to hit.
