Base Class: Barbarian
The satyrs are creatures controlled by passion. Emotions flow from their every actions. Bladedancers do not rage as much as they are consumed by their madness. The spirit of dance overtakes their body and they are led only by their base instincts. While a beautiful sight to behold from afar, up close there is no telling which movements are deadly. This sub class is only usable by Satyrs and tends to lean toward a chaotic alignment.
Dance of Death
Instead of going into a Barbarian rage you become consumed by bloodlust and dancing. You no longer have resistance to bludgeoning, slashing, and piercing damage. Instead when you begin your turn while raging and have taken damage since your last turn, you heal for half of the damage taken as your bloodlust sates you. You cannot cast spells except spells from this subclass while in Dance of Death. If you have not received damage or damaged another creature since your last turn this effect ends. Using Dance of death uses one of your rages.
Choose one of the two paths:
You gain the two-weapon fighting style. If you are wielding one or more finesse weapons, you may use Charisma instead of your normal attack bonus. If you do, you may also add your Charisma instead of your normal damage bonus. Add 1d4 damage on rolls to determine critical hit damage.
You gain the great-weapon fighting style. If you are wielding a heavy weapon, you may use your Dexterity instead of your normal attack bonus. If you do you may use Dexterity instead of Strength for the damage bonus.
