Warrior Features
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 re-roll the die and must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. This weapon must be a two-handed weapon or have the Versatile weapon quality.
Second Wind: You have a limited well of stamina that you can draw on to protect yourself from harm. On your turn, you can use a bonus action to regain hit points equal to 1d10+3. Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.
Action Surge: You can push yourself beyond your normal limits for a moment. On your turn, you can take one additional action on top of your regular action and a possible bonus action. Alternatively, if you spend Inspiration, you may give your Action Surge to a nearby ally as a reaction. The ally must use the Action Surge immediately. Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.
Weapon Master: You have advantage while wielding a weapon with the Two-handed or Versatile traits if you are fighting against a creature your size or smaller.

Skill Proficiencies: Athletics, Intimidation
Feature:
Dark Foreboding – While they know not the hour or manner of their death, those Doomed to Die often have a sixth sense of sorts when in the presence of Shadow. They may not know exactly what is behind this feeling, but they can sense its presence grow stronger or weaker. The Doomed to Die can usually tell, for example, whether an Orc band is an isolated raiding party or part of a larger force being driven by something more sinister, or whether a nearby ruin is steeped in Shadow.

History: Bromm was born in the Blue Mountains where he grew up a fairly typical, if happy dwarf. He knew of the great Shadow of the world and of course became a warrior and defender of his people, but he also had a gift for woodcarving and loved to spend hours a day whittling and working with wood.
But then with the death of Smaug, his people moved back to Erebor and a mood came over the young Bromm. Somehow he just knew that his doom was short at hand. At first they started with dreams of goblin and orc overrunning the Lonely Mountain and putting his people to the sword. These trouble Bromm for some time but eventually the dream started to change. Soon he felt that maybe he could stop this massacre but at the cost of his life.
Bromm is moody and dark most of the time. He still whittle wood absently but now he does it as a reflex and with little joy. He drinks in moderation and smokes pip weed when it is available but otherwise he is focused … searching for the time and the place where he will meet his doom. He only hopes that the dreams are correct and that with this doom his people will be spared.

Broken Spells – “Spells of Prohibition and Exclusion”
This Runic inscription is usually placed on gates and on doors, to protect an area from unwanted visitors. You may carve these signs on a rock or on the bark of a tree within the perimeter of your camp, and their power will wake you at the first sign of danger. Carve the runes and go to sleep. You will immediately awaken if any threatening presence approaches within 30 feet of your camp.[/sblock]
