Heavy {Paladin}

Whatever their origin or their mission, Heavies are the people you call in when you need an armored vehicle that you can reason with. Whether coming from an official military background, the product of a mercenary organization's investment, or self-made as a bounty hunter or similar, a Heavy’s specialized training with heavy weapons, armor, and sym-tech make them capable warriors and sturdy adventurers.

Specialized Training

Heavies train for years to learn the skills of combat, mastering a variety of weapons and armor. Even so, their martial skills are secondary to the symbiotic power they wield with their various sym-tech items and armour upgrades. They can skillfully use these devices to provide rapid healing of injured allies, to pump some extra damage into their enemies, and to protect the innocent and/or those who join them on their path.

Beyond the Mundane Life

Almost by definition, the life of a Heavy is an adventuring life. Unless a lasting injury has taken him or her away from action for a time, every heavy lives on the front lines, relishing the thrill of danger and excitement of triumph. Skilled fighters are rare enough among the ranks of the militias and armies of the galaxy, but even fewer people can claim to fill the niche of a Heavy. Whatever drew them to this life, they typically end up using their skills for a cause close to their heart, having loyalty first to their own goals and desires rather than nations, whether those goals are the cause of righteousness, the pursuit of coin, the testing of strength, or something else.

Creating a Heavy

One of the most important aspects of a Heavy character is understanding the nature of their sym-tech and armor. Although the class features related to your sym-tech specialty don't appear until you reach 3rd level, plan ahead for that choice by reading the specialty descriptions at the end of the class and feel free to integrate the nature of the specialty into your backstory.
How did you receive your training in heavy armaments? Was it formal military training or a more gritty time of trial and error in the seedy underbelly of society? Now that you are adventuring, what goals are you using your skills to pursue? Did you leave your former life on good terms or burn bridges as you absconded with your tech and armor?

Quick Build

You can make a Heavy quickly by following these suggestions. First, Strength should be your highest ability score, followed by Charisma. Second, choose the Marine/Special Ops background.

Heavy Table

Features

Sonar Pulse

As an action, you can activate a sonar sensor embedded in your armor to detect nearby forces. Until the end of your next turn, you know the location of any medium or larger creature within 60 feet of you that is not behind total cover. You know the size of any being whose presence you sense, but not its identity or equipment.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier. When you finish a long rest, you regain all expended uses.

Healing Injection

You come equipped with a sym-tech syringe filled with a serum that promotes a small amount of rapid, almost instantaneous healing of wounds. This reservoir of serum will slowly self-replicate and the syringe will be replenished when you take a long rest. With a full reservoir of serum, you can restore a total number of hit points equal to your Heavy level x 5.
As an action, you can touch a creature and inject them with some of the serum to restore a number of hit points to that creature, up to the maximum amount remaining in your pool.
Alternatively, you can expend 5 hit points from your reservoir of serum to cure the target of one disease or neutralize one poison affecting it. You can cure multiple diseases and neutralize multiple poisons with a single use of Healing Injection, expending hit points separately for each one.
This feature has no effect on robots and other synthetic constructs.

Fighting Style

Starting at 2nd level, you adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can't take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.
Blind Fighting
Via sensors in your armour and years of practiced intuition, you have blindsight with a range of 10 feet. Within that range, you can effectively see anything that isn't behind total cover, even if you're blinded or in darkness. Moreover, you can see an invisible creature within that range, unless the creature successfully hides from you.
Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.
Dueling
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon.
Great Weapon Fighting
When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack you make with a melee weapon that you are wielding with two hands, you can reroll the die and must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. The weapon must have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain this benefit.
Interception
When a creature you can see hits a target, other than you, within 5 feet of you with an attack, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage the target takes by 1d10 + your proficiency bonus (to a minimum of 0 damage). You must be wielding/wearing a shield or a simple or martial weapon to use this reaction.
Protection
When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll. You must be wielding/wearing a shield.
Close Quarters Shooter
When making a ranged attack while you are within 5 feet of a hostile creature, you do not have disadvantage on the attack roll. Your ranged attacks ignore half cover and three-quarters cover against targets within 30 feet of you. You have a +1 bonus to attack rolls on ranged attacks.
Marine
As long as you are not wearing heavy armor or using a shield, you have a swimming speed and a climbing speed equal to your normal speed, and you gain a +1 bonus to armor class.
Unarmed Fighting
Your unarmed strikes can deal bludgeoning damage equal to 1d6 + your Strength modifier. If you strike with two free hands, the d6 becomes a d8. When you successfully start a grapple, you can deal 1d4 bludgeoning damage to the grappled creature. Until the grapple ends, you can also deal this damage to the creature whenever you hit it with a melee attack.

Power Use

By 2nd level, you have learned to augment your armor to use sym-tech powers.
Preparing and Using Powers
The Heavy table shows how many power slots you have built into your armor and available to use sym-tech powers. To use one of your powers of 1st level or higher, you must expend a slot of the power's level or higher. Your sym-tech recharges all expended power slots when you finish a long rest.
You prepare the list of Heavy powers that are available for you to use, choosing from the Heavy power list. When you do so, choose a number of Heavy powers equal to your Charisma modifier + half your Heavy level, rounded down (minimum of one power). The powers must be of a level for which you have power slots.
For example, if you are a 5th-level Heavy, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level power slots. With a Charisma of 14, your list of prepared powers can include four powers of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level power Cure Wounds, you can use it with a 1st-level or a 2nd-level slot. Using the power doesn't remove it from your list of prepared powers.
You can change your list of prepared powers when you finish a long rest, reconfiguring your armor's sym-tech. Preparing a new list of Heavy powers requires time spent fiddling with the tech modules: at least 1 minute per power level for each power on your list.
Power Use Ability
Charisma is your power use ability for your Heavy powers, since their use stems from your ability to remember their activation sequences and reliably perform them (as opposed to Sym-Tech Engineers who know how to program new powers on the fly). You use your Charisma whenever a power refers to your power use ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Heavy power you use and when making an attack roll with one.
Power save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Power attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Power Use Item
You must be wearing a suit of armor to use your powers as they are, functionally, pieces of sym-tech integrated in the armor.

Nuclear Smite

Starting at 2nd level, when you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can expend one power slot to enhance your weapon with rapidly decaying, radioactive elements to deal radiant damage to the target, in addition to the weapon's damage. The extra damage is 2d8 for a 1st-level power slot, plus 1d8 for each power level higher than 1st, to a maximum of 5d8.

Synthetic Immunity

By 3rd level, you can integrate your armor with some of your biological functions which makes you immune to disease.

Sym-Tech Specialty

When you reach 3rd level, you focus your operational knowledge about sym-tech armor upgrades into one specialty. Up to this time you have been in a preparatory stage, with broad but general knowledge about these types of upgrades. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 15th, and 20th level. Those features include access to additional Heavy powers and the Overclock Sym-Tech feature.
Sym-Tech Specialty Powers
Each specialty has a list of associated powers. You gain access to these powers at the levels specified in the specialty description. Once you gain access to a specialty power, you always have it prepared. Specialty powers don't count against the number of powers you can prepare each day. If you gain a specialty power that doesn't appear on the Heavy power list, the power is nonetheless a Heavy power for you.
Overclock Sym-Tech
Your specialty allows you to channel more extradimensional energy through your devices than is recommended to create unique symbiotic effects. Each Overclock Sym-Tech option provided by your specialty explains how to use it. When you use your Overclock Sym-Tech feature, you choose which option to use. You must then finish a short or long rest to use this feature again. Some of the effects of this feature require saving throws. When you use such an effect from this class, the DC equals your Heavy power save DC.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.
Martial Versatility
Whenever you reach a level in this class that grants the Ability Score Improvement feature, you can replace a fighting style you know with another fighting style available to Heavies. This replacement represents a shift of focus in your martial practice.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Tactical Zone

Starting at 6th level, your tech provides slightly advanced warning about attacks and effects within a region around you. Whenever you or a friendly creature within 10 feet of you must make a saving throw, the creature gains a bonus to the saving throw equal to your Charisma modifier (with a minimum bonus of +1). You must be conscious to grant this bonus.
At 18th level, the range of this zone increases to 30 feet.

Zone of Courage

Starting at 10th level, you and friendly creatures within 10 feet of you can't be frightened while you are conscious as your sym-tech boosts the mental fortitude of all within range.
At 18th level, the range of this zone increases to 30 feet.

Improved Nuclear Smite

By 11th level, you can so suffuse your weapons with nuclear potential that all your melee weapon strikes pack extra punches. Whenever you hit a creature with a melee weapon, the creature takes an extra 1d8 radiant damage.

Reset Reality

Beginning at 14th level, you can use your action to end one power or symbiotic effect on yourself or on one willing creature that you touch.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once). You regain expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Sym-Tech Specialties

Zone of Time Dilation

At 7th level, you configure your sym-tech emanate a field that subtly alters aspects of time for you and your companions, allowing you to travel further than one would expect and race across a battlefield in formation.

Phase Out

At 15th level, you have the ability to slip away from your foes by phasing out of the three physical dimensions, and moving along extra dimensions to teleport to a new location.

On a failed save, a creature becomes frightened of you for 1 minute. The frightened creature can repeat this saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Punishment
You can overclock your sym-tech to punish those who use violence against your allies. Immediately after an attacker within 30 feet of you deals damage with an attack against a creature other than you, you can use your reaction to force the attacker to make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the attacker takes psychic damage equal to the damage it just dealt. On a successful save, it takes half as much damage.

Psychic Paralysis

Starting at 7th level, your sym-tech creates a mental feedback loop that amplifies fear in your enemies as long as you are not incapacitated. The field of effect extends 10 feet from you in every direction, but not through total cover.
If a creature is frightened of you, its speed is reduced to 0 while affected by this feedback loop, and that creature takes psychic damage equal to half your Heavy level if it starts its turn there.
At 18th level, the range of this field increases to 30 feet.

The zone reduces any bright light in a 30-foot radius around you to dim light. Whenever an enemy that is frightened by you starts its turn in the zone, it takes 4d10 psychic damage. Additionally, you and any creatures of your choosing in the zone can fade into this deeper shadow. Creatures that rely on sight have disadvantage on attack rolls against creatures within this shadow.
While the zone lasts, you can use a bonus action on your turn to trigger a psychological attack on one creature within the zone, mannifesting their deepest fears.

The weapon also emits bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light 20 feet beyond that. If the weapon is not already considered sym-tech, it becomes sym-tech for the duration.
You can end this effect on your turn as part of any other action. If you are no longer holding or carrying this weapon, or if you fall unconscious, this effect ends.
Target Lock
As a bonus action, you can overclock your sym-tech to be able to obtain a targeting lock against a creature you can see within 10 feet of you. You gain advantage on attack rolls against the creature for 1 minute or until it drops to 0 hit points or falls unconscious.

At 20th level, you can temporarily activate a sym-tech jetpack on your armor. For 1 hour, you gain the following benefits:

You gain a flying speed of 60 feet using your jetpack.

The hologram looks exactly like you; it is silent; it is your size, is insubstantial, and doesn’t occupy its space; and it is unaffected by attacks and damage. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the hologram up to 30 feet to a space you can see, but the hologram must remain within 120 feet of you.
For the duration, you can use powers as though you were in the hologram’s space, but you must use your own senses.

As an action, you can overclock your sym-tech to attempt to remotely hack into one robot or synthetic construct you can see within 30 feet of you. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw.

A robot or synthetic construct whose challenge rating is equal to or greater than your Heavy level is immune to this effect.

Cull the Herd
You have advantage on melee attack rolls against any creature that has one or more of its allies within 5 feet of it.
Treacherous Strike

Your sym-tech can distribute this metabolic energy as temporary hit points to creatures of your choice within 30 feet of you, which can include you. The total number of temporary hit points equals 2d8 + your level in this class, divided among the chosen creatures however you like.

Protective Biological Entanglement

Starting at 7th level, when a creature within 10 feet of you takes damage, you can use your reaction to create a quantum entangled link between yourself and the other creature.

This damage to you can't be reduced or prevented in any way.
