The Light Lord (5e Subclass)

The Light Lord

Fighter Subclass

A young man charges from an alley as he spins and unsheathes his great-sword, swinging and swiftly decapitating two thugs. The young man pulls out a bounty poster as he confirms the identity of the two slain thugs. He bends down and picks up the rolling heads as he kneels and puts them in his back pack. From behind two bandits approach as they make a ruckus. Swinging their swords wildly as they aim to take the man down while his back is turned. Suddenly a bright transparent circle like shield appears around the young man. The thugs weapons bounce off the shield as it shimmers with a bright glow. The young mans body glows yellow as suddenly two identical light constructs ooze from his very being. The left construct with the short sword blitzes one of the thugs as it takes a wide swing...slashing him across the chest killing him instantly. The right construct dashes past the remaining thug as it takes a giant swing with its great-sword, chopping the thug in half. Shortly afterwards the constructs glow brightly as they turn into a yellow mist and reabsorb into the young mans body. He stands up and walks off back into the darkness of the alley..bloody wanted poster in hand.
