Fighter

Fighters draw Power from the Primal energy within themselves, pushing their minds and bodies to the absolute limit in the midst of combat. Their mastery of maneuver usage and general martial combat effectiveness make them a premiere melee or ranged warrior with a very active playstyle. Fighter Archetypes enhances the basic warrior with unique maneuvers and a focus on reliable damage, tanking, or support roles.

Dexterity allows you to maximize Armor Class from light/medium armors and improves your Reflex save.

Constitution increases your survivability in raw hit points and contributing to your Fortitude save.

Intelligence contributes to your maximum Maneuver pool and Reflex save.

Wisdom contributes to your Will save.

Charisma contributes to your Will save and support Maneuvers such as "Commander Strike".

Archetypes

Vanquisher

"This is the end."

The Vanquisher represents the refinement of a Fighter's discipline into a deadly art.

Class Level	Feature	Details
4	Backswing	When you miss an attack, you immediately perform an Attack of Opportunity against the target of the attack. Attacks of Opportunity (AoO) are exempt from this feature. When you hit a number of consecutive attacks equal to your total attacks per round, excluding AoO or Cleave attacks, you also perform an Attack of Opportunity. This counter resets upon changing weapons, or exiting combat. Use: Automatic.
7	Vanquishing	When you perform a Maneuver, you gain a stack of Vanquishing. Each stack of Vanquishing confers a damage bonus equal to half the highest ability modifier contributing to your weapon damage. These stacks last for one minute, with the duration refreshed when a stack is gained. You may have a maximum of four stacks at any one time. Use: Automatic.
10	Flawless Technique	Landing a successful Maneuver on an enemy while you have stacks of Vanquishing will deal damage equal to half the highest ability modifier contributing to your weapon damage per stack, plus an additional 1d6 per stack. Use: Automatic.

Juggernaut

"I have no interest in last stands. This shall be one of many."

The Juggernaut withstands extreme punishment with aplomb, grinding their way through enemy lines.

Class Level	Feature	Details
4	Inertia	Your damage immunity from Hard Target increases to 50%. Use: Automatic.
7	Momentum	You now build Momentum from various actions. For each point of Momentum you build, you create or reinforce and refresh the duration of a damage resistance effect to all damage with a Threshold equal to your Fighter level plus current Momentum. Each point of Momentum gained grants this effect Absorption equal to half your Constitution modifier. Expending Maneuvers builds 1 point of Momentum per Maneuver. Expending Discipline grants you Momentum equal to 3 plus half your Fighter class level per point spent. This effect lasts for one minute, whilst each point of Momentum fades after 3 rounds (this reduces the Threshold of the effect, but does not rescind any contributed Absorption). Any absorption remaining when the effect fades either due to duration or lack of Momentum is banked and will be reapplied to the Damage Resistance effect when it is recreated. Use: Automatic.
10	Pendulum	Your Hard Target damage immunity increases to 75%. The Threshold for your Damage Resistance from Momentum is now doubled. For every 10 Momentum you produce, you gain a point of Pendulum. If damaged by an enemy within your attack range, you consume a point of Pendulum to perform an Attack of Opportunity against that enemy. You may hold a maximum capacity of Pendulum equal to your Constitution modifier. Use: Selected.

Marshal

"I shall carve the path to victory. I ask only that you know how to follow."

Where a Marshal leads, others follow.

Class Level	Feature	Details
4	Rally	You gain access to a unique Maneuver, Rally. This costs 2 Maneuvers, and targets one ally. That ally is cleared of any negative effects, receives a damage bonus equal to your Charisma modifier for one minute, and gains temporary hit points equivalent to the healing value of a Cure Moderate Wounds spell. If at or below 0 hit points, the target is also revived as if by a Raise Dead spell. Mass: For 4 Maneuvers, Apply these same effects to all allies within 10m of the target. In addition, when you use Second Wind, any overhealing is stored as a reserve of healing, to a maximum of 50% of your maximum hitpoints. This healing is distributed to any damaged targets of your Rally Maneuver, until the creature is at full hitpoints. This prioritises the target closest to the centre of the Rally area, if the Mass variant of Rally is used. Finally, you may add your Charisma modifier to your maximum Discipline score. Use: Selected.
7	Hard Corps	You grant targets affected by your Rally the effects of your Hard Target and Precision class features. Use: Selected.
10	Call to Action	When you use Action Surge, allies within 10m of you also receive the effects. Upon expending 10 Maneuvers, you gain a free use of Action Surge. Use: Selected.
