Everslayer (5e Class)
From D&D Wiki
|
This page is of questionable balance. Reason: This class has additional features with the ASI/feat levels. While that wouldn't be too powerful in and of itself, the feature gets quite a large amount of dice scaling at higher levels, and this will couple with the extra attacks later in the class.

|
This page is incomplete and/or lacking flavor. Reason: This class doesn't feel quite fleshed out. It takes a lot from fighter and other official classes to just mash it all together, somewhat. There isn't a strong theme forming this class idea cohesively. Just saying everslayers are beings of intense motivation that have been wronged some way more just forces a backstory than give a solid class idea.

Everslayer[edit]
A human licks his teeth clean of his own blood as he faces down an injured balor, smiling with an alarming amount of enthusiasm, twirling his greataxe in a flourish that begged for the balor to come get more. A dwarf marches into his former mountainhome to kill the beholder that wiped out all life within it, a burning vengeance in his eyes. An angel with a greatsword strides out of his former pantheon's grand hall, soaked in blood. They will hurt the mortals he cares for no longer.
