Animal Instincts

Your senses have been keened by your time spent in the wilds. At 2nd level you have advantage on all Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell and hearing.

Primal Might

Starting at 3rd level, while in your rage you add your Strength modifier twice instead of once to the first melee weapon attack roll you make each turn.

Headfirst Charge

Beginning at 5th level, as a reaction you take when a hostile creature moves to a space within 20 feet of you, you can move up to half your speed towards that enemy and make a single melee weapon attack with advantage.

The enemy you attack using this feature has advantage on attack rolls against you until the start of your next turn.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier, and must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Thick Hide

You’re extraordinary in your ability to withstand and endure bodily harm. Beginning at 7th level, you add your Constitution modifier to any Dexterity saving throw made to avoid taking damage.

Lingering Adrenaline

Starting at 13th level, even after your rage ends, you still continue to make Strength checks with advantage until the end of your next short or long rest.

Mighty Blow

At 13th level you can strike at your foes with stunning violence. When you make a melee weapon attack, you can choose to try and score a deadly blow. If you do so and your attack roll exceeds the target’s AC by 5 or more, the attack is a critical hit.

You can do this a number of times equal to your Strength modifier, and regain all expended uses at the end of a long rest.

Unstoppable Power

At 18th level, you are an indomitable force. While in your rage, you have advantage on all saving throws.
