Path of Elemental Bedlam

The power of your Rage is connected to the 4 Elemental planes surrounding the Material Plane. In the heat of battle these primordial forces manifest in a myriad of ways, usually resulting in a certain element coming to the forefront, however on rare occasions, your body channels the furious elemental chaos from the outermost edges of the Inner Planes.

(This is partially inspired by "The Path of Fundamental Chaos" from Critical Role. The weird list that appears below the "Aura of Frenzied Principles" table is because they are selectable rage options within the character sheet, so only the active abilities appear. If anyone knows how to remove this from the main description, I'd love to know.)

Escalating Fury

3rd-level Path of Elemental Bedlam feature

Your connection to the world's primal forces causes your rage to heighten the longer you're channeling it's power. Whilst raging you're able to accrue Primal Points. The maximum number of Primal Points you can have at one time is equal to your Rage Damage Bonus. You gain 1 Primal Point whenever you enter a Rage and whenever you begin your turn Raging. On each of your turns, the first creature you hit with a weapon or an Unarmed Strike takes an extra 1d6 damage for each Primal Point you currently have, the damage type is the same as your current Rages associated damage type. You lose all Primal Points when your Rage ends.

 

Aura of Frenzied Principles

3rd-level Path of Elemental Bedlam feature

When you enter your Rage you produce an Elemental Aura. Your Elemental Aura is an Emanation of 5 ft x half your Barbarian level (rounded down). Each Aura has an associated Damage Type and a progressive series of abilities. When you enter your Rage, roll 2d8 and select an Aura associated with one of the results. If you roll the same number on both d8's, you can choose the Elemental Chaos Aura.

If the effect requires a saving throw, the DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier.
