Barbarian
Base Class: Barbarian

Barbarians who follow this path strive to imitate the strength and power of giants. Many barbarians who choose this path try to improve their physical ability to match that of a giant's physical prowess.

PREQUISITE: Strength score of at least 15.

Gargantuan Build

If you don't already have it, at 3rd level you gain the powerful build trait, making you count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity and the weight you can push, drag or lift.

You also gain a +2 to your strength and constitution scores. Your maximum for these scores is now 26. 

Heavy Swings

Beginning at 3rd level, your skill with weapons with the heavy property improves. When you wield a weapon with the heavy property, your attacks deal an extra 1d4 damage.

This damage scales as you level up, being 2d4 at 6th level, 3d4 at 10th level, and 4d4 at 14th level.

Interposing Might

Beginning at 6th level, you have become mighty enough to stay up during your rage. You gain the following benefits:

- When raging, you are immune to being prone.

- When you take damage while raging, you can use your reaction to roll 1d8 and reduce the damage taken by the amount rolled.

Imposing Presence

Beginning at 10th level, you gain the same imposing presence giants have. You gain the following benefits:

- You can add your strength modifier to any intimidation checks you make.

- All your strength checks and saving throws you make have advantage.

Wrath of Giants

Beginning at 14th level, you can unleash the wrath of giants when you rage giving you the following benefits:

- When you enter your rage, you gain a number of temporary hit points equal to half your barbarian level.

- While raging, you can attempt to knock a creature prone if it is within 5 feet of you. If you do so, their speed is reduced to 0 until the start of your next turn. Any attack you make against this creature is a critical hit on a 19 or a 20.
