Hey everyone!
First off, I hope you all had wonderful holidays and a great start to 2025! I should apologize for the radio silence - turns out the universe had other plans for my vacation. Got hit with food poisoning during the holidays (hospital visit and everything, fun times), and just when I thought I was in the clear, caught the flu right after getting home. Starting to think someone up there really didn't want me to take a break this year 😅
But anyway, enough about my misadventures - let's talk about something way cooler: The Revenant Fighter!
This is a subclass I'm really excited about. It's for those of you who look at death and go "Nah, I've got stuff to do." Your character becomes this unstoppable force that literally refuses to stay dead, learning from each defeat and coming back stronger.
I drew heavy inspiration from Dark Souls for this one, where the character is a glass cannon, which can respawn at various anchor points (bonfires).
Some highlights:
A unique HP system that makes you surprisingly durable in an unusual way
The ability to come back from death multiple times per day
Progressive advantages against those who've killed you before
And at high levels, you can literally drag your enemies to the afterlife with you!
Stay healthy everyone (unlike me)!
