Base Class: Barbarian
Across the Lower Planes, the eternal conflict between law and chaos rages. Devils against Demons, vying for control over the hells. Sometimes this conflict spills over into the Material Plane, and the corrupting influence of the Abyss infects the souls of mortals. Cultists and worshippers of Archdemons that seek out affliction with this power walk the Path of the Inferno.
Abyssal Hide.
The corruption of the Abyss overtakes you when you rage, causing your physical features to become demonic in nature. While Raging, you gain the following additional benefits:
- You can take the Dash action as a bonus action, so long as you use this movement to move toward a hostile creature.
- When you make a Reckless Attack, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier.
Hellish Presence.
The chaotic power of the Abyss empowers your force of personality. You gain proficiency in Intimidation, and when you make a Strength (Intimidation) or Charisma (Intimidation) check, you can treat a d20 roll of 7 or lower as an 8.
In addition, you learn to speak Abyssal.
Unbridled Fury.
The chaos of the Abyss infects your Rage. When a creature you can see hits you with a melee attack while you are Raging, you can use your reaction to make one melee attack against this creature. You can make this attack as a Reckless Attack.
Corrupt Resilience
The power of the Abyss increases your resilience. You gain resistance to Fire and Poison damage.
Moreover, when you are forced to make a saving throw to resist being Charmed or Frightened, you gain a bonus equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of +1).
Chaos Overwhelming.
You can draw out the full power of the Abyssal influence that fuels you. When you Rage, you gain one of the abilities below for the duration of that rage. As a bonus action while Raging, you can expend a use of Rage to switch to another feature:
- Accursed Speed. Your limbs grow unnaturally muscular and lengthen. Your walking speed increases by 10 feet, and you can take the Dash action as a bonus action.
- Defiled Hide. Your skin becomes blighted and covered in hair, boils or oily scales. You are immune to Bludgeoning, Piercing and Slashing damage from nonmagical attacks. Attacks from silvered weapons ignore this immunity.
- Vile Flight. You sprout leathery demonic wings from your back. You gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed.
