Base Class: Fighter
An Aramusha is a Sword Saint who views the battlefield as a ballroom dance. And with twin swords as their dancing partners, they are not a force to be taken lightly. Dual wielding is their specialty and their lethality in battle is akin to a farmer sifting wheat in a field. Their dual swords are extensions of their arms, and their precision is unmatched.
Deadly Sweep
At 3rd level, you gain an additional Saint Strategy. When you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can expend one superiority die to attempt to damage another creature with the same attack. Choose another creature within 5 feet of the original target and within your reach. If the original attack roll would hit the second creature, it takes damage equal to the number you roll on your superiority die. The damage is of the same type dealt by the original attack.
Dual Weapons Training
At 3rd level, your training as an Aramusha has granted you mastery over wielding two weapons. You gain the following benefits:
- You gain a +1 bonus to your AC while wielding a separate melee weapon in each hand.
- You can use two-weapon fighting even when the one-handed melee weapons you are wielding are not light.
- You can draw or stow two one-handed weapons while you normally could draw or stow only one.
Sully Their Ranks
At 7th level, Once on each of your turns when you make a weapon attack, you can make another attack with the same weapon against a different creature that is within 5 feet of the original target and within range of your weapon.
Advanced Parry
At 10th level, When an attacker that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the attack’s damage against you.
One Thousand Cuts
At 15th level, you can use your action to make melee attacks against any number of creatures within 5 feet of you, with a separate attack roll for each target.
Dismemberment
At 18th level, when you score a critical hit on an enemy roll a d4. Which ever number you roll determines which part of the targets body you severe from them. If they are wielding a weapon in the limb that you severe, they are disarmed. (pun entirely intended)

Posted Dec 25, 2021Deadly Sweep Fighters don't automatically obtain a Superiority Dice therefore it would be needed somewhere to state that the Aramusha sub-class gains when chosen at third level a Superiority Dice. I am also not familiar with what Saint Strategy is and why at 3rd level they gain an additional one.
Sully Their Ranks Does this expend the use of the Extra Attack gained at 5th level or is this a free action which in addition to the extra attack against the first target you may also once on each turn make an attack against another target?
Advanced Parry A reaction cost is fine for this since you only have one reaction per round.
One Thousand Cuts This might be a bit strong. Can you trigger a Extra Attack after using this action? Can you trigger Sully Their Ranks after using this action?
Dismemberment Here is where I wonder how serious to take this subclass. Up until this ability you had some cool and balanced concepts.
