# Wrestler A warrior strides toward her foe, unarmed and unarmored, her hands clenching reflexively as she drops into an easy crouch. This monster may be bigger and stronger than her, but it doesn't have her technique or training. It will submit. A mysterious masked figure leaps through the fray, dodging attacks and leapfrogging foes to close with his target. Amid deadly blades and spells, he climbs atop a barrel and begins his kick with a flip. An entertainer strides into the arena, glowing with the power of his stardom. Through raw charisma, even foes will root for his victory. These are all wrestlers, and like legends of old, they inflict their own mortality on creatures of myth and magic by reminding them that they too have bodies, no matter how powerful or alien, and like every creature with a body they won't enjoy having their joints pulled the wrong way. ### Control Specialists Wrestlers derive their power from the depth of their training, the steel of their resolve, and the motive force of their muscles, but more than anything else the wrestler derives their power from the strength of their allies. An adventuring party is a formidable thing to begin with, but supported by a wrestler they become an absolute terror for any foe to deal with.

### Essentially Embodied Wrestling is the most ancient and natural form of combat. Any creature with limbs can revel in the power that gives them, but the Wrestler is one who hones that ability, learning precisely the right ways to grab and wrench and lever to limit an opponents mobility and disrupt their balance. ### Creating a Wrestler As you build your wrestler, think about two related elements of your character’s background: Where did you get your wrestling training, and what set you apart from the mundane grapplers around you? Did you train under a great wrestler? Did you have older siblings? What drove you to take this training out into the world, fighting deadly foes unarmed? You might have trained originally for sport or to entertain an audience. Perhaps you acquired your skills somewhere where weapons were banned or otherwise inadvisable. Are you seeking recognition for your skills, or are they merely a means to an end? #### Quick Build You can make a wrestler quickly by following these suggestions. First, make Strength your highest ability score. Your next-highest score should be Constitution, or Charisma if you plan to adopt the Showman discipline, or Dexterity if you plan to adopt the Lucha discipline. Second, choose the gladiator background. \page

\page # Wrestler Archetypes ## Showman Some wrestlers understand how to harness the power of an enraptured crowd, and for them fighting is more than a contest to see who will survive; it is a storytelling medium, where how powerful a move looks can truly determine how powerful it actually is. ### Stardom At 3rd level, you have a pool of Stardom points, which starts at zero and can reach a maximum of ten. Whenever you successfully make a Throw or Hold, you gain a stardom point. You learn two additional abilities from the Throws and holds list. ### Crowd Sense Also starting at 3rd level, your Proficiency bonus is doubled for Performance skill checks. ### Rile Additionally starting at 3rd level, as an action in combat you may Rile the crowd, drawing fighting spirit from their enthusiasm. When you do, make a DC15 Performance (Charisma) check. On a success, gain a number of stardom points equal to the number of non-hostile humanoid creatures who witnessed it. ### Nemesis At 7th level, you gain a Nemesis, a committed foe or rival that you will encounter several times across your career as a Wrestler. ### Undeniable Appeal At 10th level, your attempts to Rile also grant Stardom points for each hostile humanoid that witness them. ### Signature Move Additionally starting at 10th level, you may choose one of the Stardom Moves that you know to be your Signature Move. You may use your signature move once per long rest without paying its stardom cost, as long as you have a number of expended hit dice equal to the stardom cost. ### Uproar At 15th level, whenever you reduce an opponent to 0 HP with a Hold or Throw that uses Stardom Points, up to six creatures that can see you, other than yourself, gain a d6 bardic inspiration die. Once within the next 10 minutes, the creature can roll the die and add the number rolled to one ability check, Attack roll, or saving throw it makes. The creature can wait until after it rolls The D20 before deciding to use the Bardic Inspiration die, but must decide before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails. Once the Bardic Inspiration die is rolled, it is lost. A creature can have only one Bardic Inspiration die at a time. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once). You regain any expended uses when you finish a Long Rest. ### Aura of Stardom Starting at 18th level, when you reach 10 Stardom, you are wreathed in the approval of the crowd and are warded against harm. For the next minute, any creature who targets you with an attack or a harmful spell must first make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature must choose a new target or lose the attack or spell. This doesn’t protect you from area effects, such as the explosion of a fireball. If you make an attack (Grapple and Shove attempts are attacks) or cast a spell that affects an enemy creature, this effect ends.

\page ## Luchador Lucha is a discipline defined by high-flying acrobatics and a deep, spiritual connection to an assumed identity. For the Luchador, combat is a means to express the persona signified by their signature mask, the forced removal of which would inflict unimaginable shame and anguish on them. ### High Flying Attack When you choose this Archetype at 3rd level, you double your proficiency bonus for any Acrobtics skill checks. As part of an attack roll, you may make an DC 15 acrobatics check. On a success, you may add your Dexterity modifier to the attack's damage, in addition to your Strength modifier, and the target must make a Strength saving throw against your save DC or be knocked prone. On a failure, the attack misses. ### Mask Additionally at 3rd level, you acquire a Mask that represents some inner facet of your fighting spirit. Choose three Mask Features for your mask, from the list at the end of this section.

You gain an additional Mask Feature for your mask. ### Tag In Starting at 18th level, whenever an ally targets you with a spell or ability that targets only you, you may move up to half your movement speed and make an attack as a reaction. ``` ``` ## Sumo The Sumo is a wrestler who claims a space and dominates it. With their prodigous stature and status, the Sumo's occupation of an area is both impossible to ignore, and unfeasible to overcome. ### Flat Hand Strike Starting at 3rd level, your shoves deal your Strength modifier in bludgeoning damage. ### Heft Additionally starting at level 3, you must consume twice the normal amount of rations each meal. Your hit point maximum increases by an amount equal to twice your level.

At level 18, you gain 10 temp hp per enemy, and the bardic inspiration die becomes a d8. You may use this ability a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier, regaining all uses on a long rest. ### Entourage Additionally starting at 7th level, you have the service of three aspiring sumo who train under you. They can act as attendants or messengers. Your entourage are commoners who can perform mundane tasks for you, but they do not fight for you, will not follow you into obviously dangerous areas (such as dungeons), and will leave if they are frequently endangered or abused ### Assume Stance Starting at 10th level, you can no longer dash. As an action, you may assume a stance where your movement is reduced to zero and you have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing and slashing damage until the beginning of your next turn. ### Thousand Palm Strike Starting at 15th level, when you make a successful shove attack, if the target leaves your engagement range, you may make another shove attack against the same target. You must use movement as normal to reach them. ### Yokozuna Starting at 18th level, you become size large. You have advantage on Strength Saves and Athletics Checks.

\page ## Olympian ### Fundamental Focus Starting at 3rd level, you can initiate throws that end your grapple against creatures within 5 ft., even if you do not have them grappled. ### Submission Expert Also starting at 3rd level, prone creatures that start their turns grappled by you take your Strength modifier in bludgeoning damage, in addition to your Submission die. ### Dig Deep Starting at 7th level, if you complete a short rest with all of your hit dice expended, you may choose to recover HP up to half of your maximum. Once you use this ability, you must complete a long rest before you can do so again. ### Human Shield Starting at 10th level, when an enemy you don’t have grappled targets you with an attack, you may use your reaction to interpose a creature you have grappled, raising your AC by 5 against this attack.

Starting at 15th level, whenever a friendly creature has advantage on a weapon attack roll made against a creature you have grappled, they can reroll one of the dice once. ### Get His Hands Starting at 18th level, creatures you have grappled cannot perform the somatic components of spells or use weapons with the loading property.

You may maintain this hold on each of your turns as an action. ### Sleeper Hold Roll two submission dice and note the total. If it is greater than the grappled creature’s current HP, the creature falls asleep for the next minute, or until it takes damage from a source other than from your submission die, or until a creature uses an action to wake it.

A creature infected with lucha fever has disadvantage on attack rolls while its face is uncovered. ### Spiky A creature that starts its turn grappling you takes 1d4 piercing damage. ### Stable You have advantage on skill checks and saves to avoid being moved. ### Stampede ***Prerequisite: Level 15*** If you move your full movement speed in a straight line, you may move through the spaces of other creatures.

The creature must make a Wisdom Saving Throw, with disadvantage if it is surprised, or be frightened until the end of its next turn. ### Stinger Your critical hits deal an additional 7 poison damage. ### Swoop ***Prerequisite: Level 15*** Grappling does not impede your ability to move or jump. ``` ``` ### Telekinetic When you attempt to Shove a creature, you may do so at a range of 15 feet. ### Telepathic You can speak telepathically to any creature you can see within 60 feet of you. Your telepathic utterances are in a language you know, and the creature understands you only if it knows that language. Your communication doesn't give the creature the ability to respond to you telepathically. ### Thief You have advantage on checks made to steal from a creature you have grappled. ### Trample You may move through the spaces of prone creatures. The first time you do on a turn, the prone creature takes 1 grapple die of bludgeoning damage. If you move at least 20 ft straight toward a target and then hit it with an Attack on the same turn, the target must make a Strength save against your Save DC or be knocked prone. ### Tumble You can use your reaction when you fall to reduce any falling damage you take by an amount equal to twice your wrestler level. ### Venomous When you deal poison damage to a target, it must make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw.

A Poisoned creature repeats this save at the end of each turn, ending the effect on a success. ### Vicious Slash Your unarmed attacks 1d4 slashing damage. ### Wall Climber You can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, and have advantage on ability checks made to do so. ### Web You have proficiency in nets.
