[QUOTE="Sadras, post: 7460308, member: 6688277"] I have a player who wishes to run with the theme of a Barbarian believing his totem animal is guiding him (i.e Warlock Patron). I have no issue with the theme, in fact I'm very much a fan of it. However he would like to modify two class features of the Barbarian and it is this request which is causing me concern, so I'd like to get the collective's input on the matter. He would like the Barbarian's Rage and Reckless Attack to be powered via emotion (Charisma) and not brute Strength (refer underlined). He is wanting to MC into a Warlock, specifically the Hexblade (refer Xanathar's page 55) because of the below power, so he'd like to synergise the two. [B]HEX WARRIOR [/B][I]Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch one weapon that you are proficient with and that lacks the two -handed property. When you attack with that weapon, you can use your Charisma modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, for the attack and damage rolls. [/I][B] RAGE [/B](refer PHB) [I]When you make a melee weapon Attack using [U]Strength[/U], you gain a +2 bonus to the damage roll. This bonus increases as you level. [/I] [B]RECKLESS ATTACK [/B](refer PHB) [I]Starting at 2nd level, you can throw aside all concern for defense to Attack with fierce desperation. When you make your first Attack on Your Turn, you can decide to Attack recklessly. Doing so gives you advantage on melee weapon Attack rolls using [U]Strength[/U] during this turn, but Attack rolls against you have advantage until your next turn.[/I] Would you allow it at your table?
