Indomitable (5e Class)

Indomitable

Masters of resolve and known to be unstoppable forces spearheading many charges and sieges. Although many use their resilience to provide a bulwark between their ally's and any harm.

Hardy and resolved

Known for their immense statures, many find themselves out of place in civilized setting and so finding themselves counted amongst tribes of roaming barbarians or utilizing these talents in a military fashion. However, the most accomplished Indomitable's having not only brute strength but the willpower to back up the brawn.

Creating a Indomitable

When making an Indomitable keep in mind that they are geared towards a tanking sponge in a group rather than dealing vast amounts of damage, however nothing is to stop you adapting and enhancing the strengths to become a force to be reckoned with. Your origin and the place you're from as always comes from your mind, the only restrictions being the ones your DM applies but work with them to create your favored origin. For example:Where is your character from? How did they end up committing themselves to this self improvement, or was it merely a choice of convenience given your characters natural hardiness? Are you a gentle giant? If so, who do you strive to protect or what drives you ? Are you fear incarnate? If so, to what extent do you use your imposing presence?

Quick Build

You can make a Indomitable quickly by following these suggestions. First, Strength should be your highest ability score, followed by Constitution as you gain innate buffs to this ability. Second, choose the soldier background. Third, choose heavy weapons or your fists to stick to the heavy theme.
