Message: <blockquote data-quote="LassiterKeshell" data-source="post: 7796838" data-attributes="member: 72019">Hiya.I've been working on a custom subclass for an NPC/fill in player. The main idea is the character makes a suit of armor... the easiest example would be Iron Man (I tried avoiding the comparison, but whatever). The feature revolves around having a small pool of dice to fuel a few abilities, like Superiority Dice. The pool starts at 4d6 (you can burn a spell slot to regain some dice), and you get to choose some of these abilities at 3rd, 6th, and 14th level (you'll never get all of them).You can make either a combat suit or a travel suit after a long rest, so some of these abilities only work with a certain type of suit. The idea is which ever type of suit you make, one will probably be your go-to suit, so you'll chose abilities for that suit over the other.If someone could take a look and give me their impressions, I'd appreciate it.<table style='width: 100%'><tr><td>Ablative: If you are hit with an attack, spend one or more Capacitor Dice as a Free Action to gain temp HP (equal to the amount rolled) after you are hit, but before damage is rolled. Prerequisite: Battle Mode</td></tr><tr><td>Blocking: If a Hostile creature that you can see moves out of your reach, you can spend one or more Capacitor Dice as your Reaction to initiate a Grapple on that creature. Add the Capacitor Dice to your Str Check. Prerequisite: Battle Mode</td></tr><tr><td>Ejection: If you are reduced to 0, or less HP while inside the Apparatus, as a Free Action you are ejected 5 feet away in any direction you choose. If you had any Capacitor Dice remaining when you are ejected, roll the remaining dice and you are healed that amount. If you do not have any dice remaining, you are still ejected five feet in any direction, but you are Unconscious and Stable. Prerequisite: None</td></tr><tr><td>Movement: Spend a Capacitor Die as an Action to gain a Flying or Swimming Speed for a number of rounds equal to the die roll. Prerequisite: 6th Level, Scout Mode</td></tr><tr><td>Quick: As a Bonus Action, you can spend one or more Capacitor Dice to take the Disengage Action, adding the amount rolled to your movement in feet. During this move, non-magical difficult terrain costs no extra movement. Prerequisite: Scout Mode</td></tr><tr><td>Redirection: If you are targeted by a ranged attack, or ranged spell attack that targets only one creature, you can spend one or more Capacitor Dice as your Reaction to increase your AC by the amount rolled. If the attack misses, you can redirect the attack to a different creature. Apply the original attack roll to the new target, rolling the attack's damage dice if it hits. Prerequisite: 6th Level, Scout Mode</td></tr><tr><td>Self-Destruct: As an Action, you can set your capacitor to overload and explode, destroying your Apparatus. You are launched 30 ft in any direction before the explosion. Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on your Apparatus must make a Dex Save. Each target takes 4d6 thunder damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If you have any Capacitor Dice remaining, you add them to the damage roll. Prerequisite: 6th Level, Battle Mode</td></tr><tr><td>Skill Suite: As a Bonus Action, spend a Capacitor Die to add the amount rolled to a Stealth or Perception Check. Prerequisite: Scout Mode</td></tr><tr><td>Targeting: If you miss with a ranged attack, or ranged spell attack that targets only one creature, you can spend a Capacitor Die as your Reaction to select a new target within range and make an attack roll against that new target. You can continue to use this protocol again during your Reaction if you roll another miss, spending a Capacitor Die to select a new target, but you can't select a creature more than once per attack with this ability. Prerequisite: 6th Level, Battle Mode</td></tr></table></blockquote>
