Fighter

The fighter is the purest expression of martial skill there is — the soldier, the duelist, the sworn guard, the mercenary who has survived every campaign the odds said they shouldn't. Where others reach for spells or bargains, the fighter reaches for the weapon in their hand and the training behind it, and finds that more than enough. Their power is not borrowed from any god or bloodline. It was earned, one drill and one scar at a time.

What the fighter lacks in mystique they make up in sheer, dependable versatility. They can wear any armor, wield any weapon, and are the only warriors who strike more often and act more often than anyone else on the field. Simple to start and deep to master, the fighter is the backbone of any company — the one still standing, still swinging, when the plan has fallen apart around them.

Signature Feature · Level 2

Action Surge

For one furious moment, you act at twice your own speed. On your turn, you can push yourself to take one additional action — a second Attack action, a second dash, a second anything — beyond your normal one and your Bonus Action.

Usable once per Short or Long Rest (twice, later on). It is the fighter's decisive gear-shift: the burst that ends a duel, seizes a moment, or simply doubles the damage at the instant it matters most.

1st Level

Fighting Style

You adopt a signature approach to combat, gaining a Fighting Style feat of your choice — the pinpoint aim of Archery, the guard of Defense, the precision of Dueling, the crushing follow-through of Great Weapon Fighting, and more. It is the first stroke that turns a soldier into your soldier.

1st Level

Second Wind

You have a deep well of stamina to draw on. As a Bonus Action, you can rally, regaining Hit Points equal to 1d10 + your Fighter level. You have two uses to spend between rests (more as you advance), refilled on a Short or Long Rest — the reason a fighter so rarely stays down.

3rd Level

Martial Archetype

You commit to an Archetype that defines how you fight, gaining features at 3rd, 7th, 10th, 15th, and 18th level. It is the deepest fork in the class — the tactician, the champion, the mage-blade, the mind-warrior. All four are gathered below.

5th Level

Extra Attack

You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. It is the plainest and most defining escalation in the game — the moment the fighter's output leaves every single-attack combatant behind for good.

9th Level

Indomitable

You refuse to be undone by a single bad moment. When you fail a saving throw, you can reroll it and must use the new result. You can do this once per Long Rest to start, gaining further uses as you climb — a stubbornness that shrugs off spells, poisons, and terrors that would fell anyone else.

20th Level

Extra Attack (Three Extra)

You reach the summit of martial mastery. When you take the Attack action, you can attack four times instead of once. Where the world's finest warriors manage two blows, you land four — a storm of steel no unaugmented mortal can match.
