Stasis Titan (5e Class)

Stasis Behemoth

Stasis Behemoth are armour specialists who are tough and hard-hitting, which makes them a good bet for close-quarters combat. As they're probably the toughest of all the classes, they're probably the best bet for solo adventurers expecting to take on swarths of enemies alone. Stasis Behemoth are an incredibly strong group of adventures, designed specifically to play the role of super soldier or space marine. They are an all-out, heavy assault class, and can be considered a class equivalent of the prototypical "warrior" class. Their armor is composed of heavy metals, and they are designed to withstand a significant amount of damage at the expense of range and manoeuvrability. Visually, a Behemoth armor holds a strong 'V' shape in the overall design. Cues of a Behemoth can be given in the swept-back helmet or the angled thigh pads. Approximately eighty percent of a Behemoth gear will show armor, while the remaining twenty percent will be composed of non-armor materials.

Fall from light

Once a emissary of the light has fallen to the powers of the darkness, an ancient power opposed to the light but equally if not more powerful. A Stasis Behemoth races into battle covered in an armor of Stasis crystals, allowing the Behemoth to temporarily become an unstoppable machine of power and destruction, able to jump higher, faster, and farther, all while blasting enemies with greatly increased melee attacks. Able to manipulate the darkness to their will they freeze their foes where they stand before destroying them leaving only ice shards behind.

Brawler

You know to rely on your fists more than any other weapon. This mindset has granted you the following benefits: You can use your Strength or Dexterity modifier to determine the attack and damage rolls of your unarmed strikes. You must use the same modifier for both rolls. Your unarmed Strikes deal 1d4 Bludgeoning damage. The increase to 2d4 at 10th and 4d4 at 20th. On your turn, if you take the Attack action or cast Shiver Strike, you can use your bonus action to make an unarmed strike. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move up to your speed toward a hostile creature you can see or hear. You must end this movement closer to the hostile creature than you started. You are considered proficient with improvised weapons.

Shiver Strike

You draw in the dark energy within yourself and coat your fist in ice, darting forward 10ft dealing 1d6+Con cold damage. You may replace one of your unarmed strike with a Shiver Strike if you have a charge. Starting at 1st level, roll d6 for damage. Increase the damage die size by one at 6th (d8), 11th (d10), and 15th level (d12). This ability charges on a 6 from a D6, which is rolled when you use the ability. The number of the roll indicates how many rounds until you gain it back e.g (A 4 would leave 2 rounds till you can use again.)

Ammo Generation

You have so much ammo for upto 3 guns that you are familiar with, you regain this ammo after a long rest. Starting at 1st level, roll 2d6 for each guns ammo. Increase the die size by one at 6th (d8), 11th (d10) , and 15th level (d12).
