Path of the Dark Void

Primal Path

At 3rd level, a barbarian gains the Primal Path feature. The following option is available to a barbarian, in addition to those normally offered.

Path of the Void

Most barbarians, different as they might be, are defined by their rage: unbridled, unquenchable, and unthinking fury. More than a mere emotion, their anger is the ferocity of a cornered predator, the unrelenting assault of a storm, the churning turmoil of the sea.  But what of those barbarians who witness the unthinkable.  Their inability to react, emotionally or physically, is gone.  They have entered the world of the void, a dark empty place, devoid of all emotion.  When a warrior cannot fear, what can he destroy? Everything.  For every barbarian, rage is a power that fuels not just a battle frenzy but also uncanny reflexes, resilience, and feats of strength.  Some have a roaring waterfall of rage and fury, but the void consumes all, leaving only malicious intent behind.  Many of these void champions hear whispers in the silence, sounds of unknown origins and a calling of hunger...

Voices of the Void

At third level, The voice of this empty hunger has spoken to you, in an alien tongue that sounds of simple silence, bordering insanity.  You learn Deep speech.  Additionally your body changes in one horrific way, work with your DM to create a custom mutation or choose one option or roll a d6 on the table below.

d6	Mutation
1	You've lost your mouth, and it has materialized somewhere on your body...
2	you have no eyes, they are pure blackness...
3	Your skin is ice cold to the touch, and rough like the texture of sand
4	you have one eye in each palm, it will only look at those you will kill or have.
5	you have black jagged teeth and love the taste of raw meat
6	your bones are on the outside of your skin.

 

 

Empty The Void

Beginning at 3rd level when you choose this path, you are immune to the frightened or charmed condition while raging.  If you are charmed or frightened and begin your rage, you immediately cure yourself of both or either condition.

 

True Malice

At 3rd level, your lack of emotion flows through your mannerisms, you know to instil true fear, one must reveal their void.  To craft perfect lies, one must be empty of the truth. you become proficient in both intimidation and deception, you add double your proficiency to these skill checks 

Wrath of the Void

When you choose this path at 3rd level, while raging, once per turn deal 1d6 plus proficiency psychic damage to one target on a hit.  Additionally, all damage you inflict can be psychic.

Within The Void

At level 6, your lack of emotion within your void has bled through into your reality.  You are resistant to psychic damage, as your mind and soul become empty.  There is nothing within them that could be damaged.

 

Pull of the Void

Also at 6th level, your inner void begins to manifest around you. Black inky emptiness surrounds you in an aura.  At the beginning of your turn Any hostile creatures within 20 feet of you must succeed on a strength saving throw (DC = 8+prof+con) or be pulled 10 feet toward you.  If this would put them in your melee range, you can use a bonus action to make one melee attack at one target.  At 14th level the radius increases to 30 feet, and the forced movement increases to 20 feet.

 

Crushing Void

At 10th level Your aura of the void is now considered difficult terrain for all enemies.  This difficult terrain does not apply to forced movement from your Pull of the Void.  Additionally any enemy within this aura of Void takes 1d6 psychic damage at the beginning of their turn.

 

Hunger of the Void

At 14th level, while raging, as an action you can call for the hunger of the void to manifest its malevolence. Each hostile target within your void aura must make a strength saving throw (DC=8+prof+con) or be knocked prone, taking full psychic damage on a fail and half damage on a success.  The damage is equal to 1d6 per creature within your aura, plus your barbarian level.  You then heal the same amount and your rage ends.  This action is once per long rest.

Voices of the Void

At third level, The voice of this empty hunger has spoken to you, in an alien tongue that sounds of simple silence, bordering insanity.  You learn Deep speech.
