Samurai

The Samurai is a fighter who draws on an implacable fighting spirit to overcome enemies. A Samurai’s resolve is nearly unbreakable, and the enemies in a Samurai’s path have two choices: yield or die fighting.

Samurai Maneuvers

Noble Spirit

• Whenever you are forced to make a saving throw to resist being charmed, frightened, or stunned, you can expend a superiority die and add it to your roll.

Regal Bearing

• When you make a History, Insight, or Persuasion check, you can expend a superiority die and add it to your roll.

Bonus Proficiency

At 3^rd level, you gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: History, Insight, Performance, or Persuasion. Alternatively, you learn one language of your choice.

Fighting Spirit

Starting at 3^rd level, your intensity in battle can shield you and help you strike true.
As a bonus action on your turn, you can give yourself advantage on weapon attack rolls until the end of the current turn. When you do so, you also gain temporary hit points equal to 2 rolls of your superiority die. The number of temporary hit points increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 3 rolls at 10^th level and 4 rolls at 15^th level.
You can use this feature twice, and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a short or long rest.

Elegant Courtier

Starting at 7^th level, your discipline and attention to detail allow you to excel in social situations.
Whenever you make a Persuasion check, you gain a bonus to the check equal to your Wisdom modifier.
You also gain proficiency in Wisdom saving throws. If you already have this proficiency, you instead gain proficiency in Intelligence or Charisma saving throws (your choice).

Tireless Spirit

Starting at 10^th level, when you roll initiative and have no uses of Fighting Spirit remaining, you regain one use.

Rapid Strike

Starting at 15^th level, you learn to trade accuracy for swift strikes.
If you take the Attack action on your turn and have advantage on an attack roll against one of the targets, you can forgo the advantage for that roll to make an additional weapon attack against that target, as part of the same action. You can only do so once per turn.

Strength Before Death

Starting at 18^th level, your fighting spirit can delay the grasp of death.
If you take damage that reduces you to 0 hit points and doesn't kill you outright, you can use your reaction to delay falling unconscious and immediately take an extra turn.
While you have 0 hit points during that extra turn, taking damage causes death saving throw failures as normal, and three death saving throw failures can still kill you. When the extra turn ends, you fall unconscious if you still have 0 hit points.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
