P PRage burns in every barbarian’s heart, a furnace thatdrives him or her toward greatness. Different barbariansattribute their rage to different sources, however. Forsome, it is an internal reservoir where pain, grief, andanger are forged into a fury hard as steel. Others see itas a spiritual blessing, a gift of a totem animal.

P S You belong to a tradition of barbarians who hunt downsacred beasts, stealing their pelts and organs for grizzlyrituals that unlock their own ability to take on differentshapes. Skinchangers begin their path by learning topartially adopt the shape of beasts while raging, lookingfor all the world like a lycanthrope though they do notsuffer such a curse. As these barbarians grow in powertheir ability to change their forms for greater power anddeception only improves.

S H At 3rd level, you learn a sacred hunting ritual that allows

you to gain the power of beasts. Prior to beginning thisritual you must name a beast that might exist in thenearby wild and is listed below. This sacred hunt takes1 hour to complete. After you perform a sacred hunt, when you enter a rage you partially transform into thebeast you selected and add the corresponding benetto the normal benets of rage. This effect lasts until youperform another sacred hunt.

Bat. As a bonus action you can shriek or catch the wind. If you shriek and are not deafened, you haveblindsight up to 60 feet away until the end of your nextturn. If you catch the wind, you y 10 feet and take nodamage from falling until the end of your next turn.

Boar. When you move 15 feet or more directly

towards a creature on your turn you can spend yourbonus action to gore them with your tusks. You haveprociency with tusk attack and add your strengthmodier to hit and damage. The gore attack deals 1d4bludgeoning damage and the creature must make aStrength saving throw or fall prone. The DC of thissaving throw is 8 + your prociency modier + yourStrength modier.

Rat. Gain resistance to poison damage and advantageon saving throws against disease, poison and restrainedeffects. In addition, you can use a bonus action to use

your tail to distract and threaten your enemy, giving thenext attack roll they make disadvantage.

Shark. Gain a swim speed of 30 feet and you canbreathe underwater. As a bonus action you can bite anycreature that has less than their maximum hit points.

You have prociency with the bite attack and add yourstrength modier to hit and damage. The bite attackdeals 1d4 piercing damage.

Wolf. As a bonus action you can harry a creature nextto you. When you harry a creature next to you the nextattack against that creature has advantage. As a reaction

you can hound a creature next to you when it moves outof your reach. When you hound a creature you movehalf your movement speed and must move as close tothe creature triggering the reaction as possible. Thismovement does not provoke opportunity attacks.

S Also at 3rd level, you gain the ability to turn into ananimal exactly as described in the druid’s Wild Shapefeature save that you can only use the feature oncebefore needing a long rest to use again. This Wild

Shape feature improves at 4th and 8th level, just as itdoes for druid.T T MStarting at 6th level, your ability to change your ownform improves and you can cast alter self and enhance ability (targeting yourself only). After casting one ofthese spells with this feature you must complete a longrest to use this ability again. In addition, as part of the bonus action you use to

enter a rage you can cast alter self or enlarge (targeting yourself only). Unlike the spell you do not need toconcentrate to continue the effect but the effect ends

when your rage does.

P RStarting at 10th level, the sacred hunt reaps evengreater rewards. Add an additional benet based on thetarget of your last sacred hunt to the normal benets of

your rage; Bat. You have a y movement speed of 30 feet. Boar. As a free action once during your turn when a

creature makes an opportunity attack against you youcan make a gore attack against it after its opportunity

attack is resolved. Rat. You are immune to poison and disease. As a

bonus action you can spread dirt and lth across your weapon. The next time you damage a creature with that weapon they must make a Constitution saving throw(DC 14) or be poisoned until the end of their next turn.

Shark. When you deal damage to a creature with lessthan half its hit points remaining you deal an additional1d4 damage.

Wolf. When you harry a creature all attacks againstthat creature gain advantage until the start of your nextturn. When you hound a creature you can move your fullmovement speed instead of half your movement speed.

T M MStarting at 14th level, you can cast alter self andenhance ability (targeting yourself only) at will. Inaddition, you can now use the Wild Shape granted by

your Skinchanger feature twice before needing a longrest. Finally, you can cast the spell polymorph oncebefore needing a long rest to cast it again. Your spellsave for this spell is 8 + your prociency modier + yourConstitution modier.

P PRage burns in every barbarian’s heart, a furnace thatdrives him or her toward greatness. Different barbariansattribute their rage to different sources, however. Forsome, it is an internal reservoir where pain, grief, andanger are forged into a fury hard as steel. Others see itas a spiritual blessing, a gift of a totem animal.

P S WSome barbarians are not marked by their loyalty to kinor tribe but by their loyalty to land and beast. Thesebarbarians take up the role of stewards and protectorsof the natural world ghting against those who woulddespoil it. In taking on this role the barbarian learnsmuch of the magic of his cousin the druid, even learningto bend his typically violent rage into an unshakableinner calm.

S At 3rd level, you augment your signicant physicalprowess with druidic magic. See chapter 10 for the

general rules of spellcasting and chapter 11 for thedruid spell list.Cantrips. You learn learn two cantrips of your choice

from the druid spell list. You learn an additional druidcantrip of your choice at 10th level.

Spell Slots. The Sylvan Warden Spellcasting tableshows how many spell slots you have to cast your spellsof 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, youmust expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. Youregain all expended spell slots when you nish a longrest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell entangleand have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available,

you can cast entangle using either slot.

Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher. You knowthree 1st-level druid spells of your choice, two of

which you must choose from the conjuration andtransmutation spells on the druid spell list. The Spells Known column of the Sylvan WardenSpellcasting table shows when you learn more druidspells of 1st level or higher. Each of these spells mustbe a conjuration or transmutation spell of your choice,and must be of a level for which you have spell slots. Forinstance, when you reach 7th level in this class, you canlearn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level. The spells you learn at 8th, 14th, and 20th level cancome from any school of magic. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you canreplace one of the druid spells you know with anotherspell of your choice from the druid spell list. The newspell must be of a level for which you have spell slots,and it must be a conjuration or transmutation spell,unless you’re replacing the spell you gained at 8th, 14th,or 20th level.

Spellcasting Ability. Wisdom is your spellcastingability for your druid spells, since you learn your spellsthrough observation and emulation of the natural world.

You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to yourspellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdommodier when setting the saving throw DC for a druidspell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your profciency modifer +your Wisdom modifer

Spell attack modifer = your profciency bonus +your Wisdom modifer

Q RStarting at 3rd level, you have learned to turn yourfurious physical rage into an aura of unshakeable calm.Using a bonus action and expending a use of yourrage, you enter a quieted rage. While in a quieted rage

If you enter a rage while in a quieted rage, the quietedrage ends. If you enter a quieted rage while in a rage,the rage ends. Your quieted rage ends after 1 minuteor until you spend a bonus action to end it early or gounconscious.

B LStarting at 6th level, you gain the ranger’s NaturalExplorer feature. At 7th level, you also gain a mysticalconnection to the land you choose as if you had selectedthe same terrain for the druid’s Circle Spells feature. At7th level you gain the spells a druid would at 3rd level.

a saving throw to end an effect they are under with abonus to the roll equal to the spell slot you expendedor recover 1d6 per level of spell slot you expended +their Constitution modier in hit points. If you are in aquieted rage you can use a bonus action rather than an




action to use this feature.

R There is a lot of discussion in the D&D community andin Wizards of the Coast itself about the state of theranger class. While Wizards of the Coast has offered afew possible variations on the class as alternatives to theranger presented in the Player’s Handbook there doesn’tappear to be a consensus currently on the direction theclass will ultimately take, if it is ever officially revised atall. There are also many D&D fans who have createdtheir own versions of the ranger class in an attempt toresolve the perceived mechanical and thematic failingsof the current official ranger class. Given the precariousposition of the ranger in the community and my desireto create new content for all classes, I developed rangeroptions for the Complete Martialist Handbook with thefollowing considerations in mind.

First, any change to the ranger base class shouldbe minor enough that, if removed, the archetypespresented here could still be usable in campaigns thatdid not want to use a change to the base class. Thesecond consideration is that any change, althoughminor, must improve the ranger thematically and

mechanically and be inspired by the historical strengthsof the ranger class in previous D&D editions. With theseconsiderations in mind, here are my additions to theranger class as presented in the Player’s Handbook.

H ’ M TStarting at 1st level, creatures of the type selected by

your Favored Enemy feature are always considered tobe under the affect of your hunter’s mark . This effect on

your Favored Enemy does not require any action by youto initiate or concentration to maintain.

H ’ M T Starting at 3rd level, you can cast hunter’s mark as acantrip. When you cast hunter’s mark as a cantrip itcounts as if you used the highest level spell slot you canhave.

H ’ M T Starting at 9th level, you cannot lose concentration on

your hunter’s mark by taking damage.

B Like the ranger from the Player’s Handbook, thecommunity has largely written off the beastmasterarchetype. Given that the beastmaster represents such acompelling and commonplace fantasy narrative conceptI wanted to do what I could to make it a viable option asan archetype for the ranger. Written below is a rewrite ofthe beastmaster features.

R ’ CStarting at 3rd level, you gain a beast companion thataccompanies you on your adventures and is trained toght alongside you. Choose a beast that is no larger thanMedium and that has a challenge rating of ¼ or lower.

Add your prociency bonus to the beast’s AC, attackrolls, and damage rolls, as well as to any saving throwsand skills it is procient in. Its hit point maximumequals its normal maximum or ve times your rangerlevel, whichever is higher. The beast obeys your commands as best as it can. Ittakes its turn on your initiative, though it doesn’t take anaction unless you command it to. On your turn, you can

verbally command the beast where to move (no actionrequired by you). You can use your action to verballycommand it to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Dodge,or Help action. Once you have the Extra Attack feature,

you can make one weapon attack yourself when youcommand the beast to take the Attack action. While traveling through your favored terrain with onlythe beast, you can move stealthily at a normal pace. If the beast dies, you can obtain another one byspending 8 hours magically bonding with another beastthat isn’t hostile to you, either the same type of beast asbefore or a different one.

B O

Also at 3rd level, you could use your action to command your beast to pursue one of the following orders; Assault. Choose a creature within 60 feet of you. On

your turn you do not control your beast’s movement.Instead the beast moves within reach of that creature,avoiding provoking opportunity attacks if possible, andmakes a melee attack on each of your turns. This orderends if the creature you chose is reduced to 0 hp.

Defend. Choose a creature or object within 60 feetof you. On your turn you do not control your beast’smovement. Instead the beast moves adjacent to thecreature or object and attempts to interpose itselfbetween the creature or object and attacking creatures.On each of your turns the creature makes an attack

against one of the closest enemy creatures to thecreature or object you commanded it to defend. Thisorder ends if there are no more enemy creatures.

Retreat. Give your creature an indication of whereit should ee to. On each of your turns your beastmoves in that direction and then takes a Dash actionto continue moving the same direction. Your beast willspend his action to Disengage if that would allow himto avoid an opportunity attack while obeying this order.This order ends when your creature arrives where youdirected them to. You can use a bonus action to command a beast tocease an order.

B ’ M Starting at 7th level, your beast benets from the effectsof your hunter’s mark the same way you do.




A P Starting at 11th level, when you bond to a new beastusing your Ranger’s Companion feature you the beastcan be no larger than Large size and must have achallenge rating of 1 or lower.

S SStarting at 15th level, when you cast a spell targeting

yourself or you are targeted by a spell that heals you, you

can also affect your beast companion with the spell ifthe beast is within 30 feet of you.

G All rangers form a bond with the land, mastering thesurvival skills necessary to thrive there and learning touse terrain to their advantage. Geomancers connect tothe land on a mystical level, discovering ways of callingup the inherent magical powers of the local ora, faunaand geological features. In territory they are intimatelyfamiliar with, geomancers wield a wide range of spells

while powerful geomancers can even call up thegeomantic properties of distant lands.

G Starting at 3rd level, you learn the druidcraft cantrip.Starting at 5th level, you can cast spells associated withone of your favored terrains while you are in that terrain.These spell associations are the same as the ones listedon the Druid Circle of Land, Circle Spells feature. Forthe purposes of gaining access to spells a 5th level

ranger counts as a 3rd level druid, a 9th level rangercounts as a 5th level druid, a 13th level ranger counts asa 7th level druid, and a 17th level ranger counts as a 9thlevel druid.

G R Starting at 3rd level, you have learned to regain some of

your magical power by communing with the earth. Onceper day when you nish a short rest, you can choose

expended spell slots to recover. The spell slots can havea combined level that is equal to or less than half yourranger level (rounded up), and none of these slots canbe 6th level or higher.

I EStarting at 3rd level, you learn a 10 minute ritual thatinvolves setting a weapon on the ground and calling onthe geomantic power of the elements to empower the

weapon. This empowerment lasts until you take a longrest. While empowered the weapon deals additionaldamage of a type determined by the terrain this abilityis used in the rst time you deal damage with it eachround. The additional damage is 1d4.

Arctic. Cold damage.Coast. Acid damage.

Desert. Fire damage.Grassland. Radiant damage.

Mountain. Thunder damage.Settlement. Psychic damage.Swamp. Poison damage.Underdark. Necrotic damage.

G AStarting at 7th level, when you complete a long rest youcan choose to add the terrain type you rested in to yourlist of favored terrains granted by your Natural Explorerfeature. This effect ends when you use this feature again.

S EStarting at 11th level, you gain twice your ranger levelin temporary hit points whenever you complete a longrest in a region that is considered a favored terrain asselected in your Natural Explorer feature. You gain

your ranger level in temporary hit points whenever youcomplete a short rest in an area that matches a favoredterrain selected by your Natural Explorer feature or youcomplete a long rest in any terrain you do not favor. While you have these temporary hit points you deal anadditional 1d4 damage with your Invoke the Elementsfeature.

W LStarting at 15th level, you can cast a spell from a favoredterrain’s list without expending a spell slot as if you youexpended the highest spell slot you can cast. You canuse this feature again after you complete a long rest. In addition, you can cast a spell from a favored terrainlist that you are not currently in by expending a spell slotone level or more higher than the one called for by thespell.

M At the core of your being you are what you hunt. Whileother rangers stalk the edges of civilization ghtingback the darkness you stalk the edge of the darknessand serve as a medium between civilization and themonstrous. Your intimacy with monstrous beings hastranslated to arcane power over magics related to theirnature.

A KStarting at 3rd level, you learn a 10 minute ritual where

you decorate yourself in the trappings of one of yournon-humanoid favored enemy types. Until your nextlong rest you gain advantage on all Charisma checks

when engaging with that creature type. Additionally,one or both of your arms (your choice) are transformedinto a monstrous appendage that you are procient

with. These monstrous appendages deal 2d4 + strengthor dexterity modier (your choice) and have the light

TSome rogues pursue their natural interest in traps andlocks to such an extent that they discover a whole suiteof inventions they can jury-rig in a pinch. Tinkerersendlessly draft blueprints of new machines that mighthelp them in their adventures whether in a ght or justnavigating dangerous terrain. The tinkerer’s creationsmay be too unstable for mass production or repeateduse but in the tinkerer’s own hands they are invaluable.
