Warrior of the Brand

Some warriors delve into secret tomes about the sword or the axe. However, in Karturas, and other parts of the realms, are tomes that speak not of swords alone, but of supernatural powers that seem almost like fairy tales...and how to attain such power. Such tomes speak of grand warriors who harness this supernatural power, and use it to battle their enemies. These fearsome warriors are known as the Warriors of the Brand. (warning: this subclass requires afew additional modifier adds, so only use this subclass if you can keep track of that.)

Chosen Brand

The ritual requires the player to take a short rest, on conclusion, the PC will have the chosen brand on the back of their free hand, and may use it as an action in combat, or use it outside as well. it will take a long rest for the arm to return to normal.
