===Rage===
''1st level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You can imbue yourself with a primal power called '''Rage''', a force that grants you extraordinary might and resilience. You can enter it as a {{5e24|Bonus Action}} if you aren’t wearing {{5e24|Heavy Armor}}.

You can enter your Rage the number of times shown for your Barbarian level in the Rages column of the {{iplink|Barbarian Features}} table. You regain one expended use when you finish a {{5e24|Short Rest}}, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a {{5e24|Long Rest}}.

While active, your Rage follows the rules below.
:'''{{anchor|Damage Resistance}}.''' You have {{5e24|Resistance}} to {{5e24|Bludgeoning}}, {{5e24|Piercing}}, and {{5e24|Slashing}} {{5e24lc|Damage}}.
:'''{{anchor|Rage Damage}}.''' When you make an attack using Strength — with either a weapon or an {{5e24|Unarmed Strike}} — and deal damage to the target, you gain a bonus to the damage that increases as you gain levels as a Barbarian, as shown in the Rage Damage column of the Barbarian Features table.
:'''{{anchor|Strength Advantage}}.''' You have {{5e24|Advantage}} on Strength {{5e24lc|Check}}s and Strength {{5e24lc|Saving Throw}}s.
:'''No Concentration or Spells.''' You can’t maintain {{5e24|Concentration}}, and you can’t cast {{5e24lc|Spell}}s.
:'''{{anchor|Duration}}.''' The Rage lasts until the end of your next {{5e24lc|Turn}}, and it ends early if you don Heavy armor or have the {{5e24|Incapacitated}} condition. If your Rage is still active on your next turn, you can extend the Rage for another round by doing one of the following:
:* Make an {{5e24lc|Attack Roll}} against an enemy.
:* Force an enemy to make a saving throw.
:* Take a Bonus Action to extend your Rage.
:Each time the Rage is extended, it lasts until the end of your next turn. You can maintain a Rage for up to 10 minutes.

===Unarmored Defense===
''1st level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
While you aren’t wearing any {{5e24lc|Armor}}, your base {{5e24|Armor Class}} equals 10 plus your {{5e24|Dexterity}} and {{5e24|Constitution}} modifiers. You can use a {{5e24|Shield}} and still gain this benefit.

===Weapon Mastery===
''1st level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
Your training with {{5e24lc|Weapon}}s allows you to use the {{5e24|Mastery Property|mastery properties}} of two kinds of {{5e24|Simple Weapon|Simple}} or {{5e24|Martial Weapon|Martial}} {{5e24|Melee Weapon}}s of your choice, such as {{5e24|Greataxe}}s and {{5e24|Handaxe}}s. Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can practice weapon drills and change one of those weapon choices.

When you reach certain Barbarian levels, you gain the ability to use the mastery properties of more kinds of weapons, as shown in the Weapon Mastery column of the Barbarian Features table.

===Danger Sense===
''2nd level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You gain an uncanny sense of when things aren’t as they should be, giving you an edge when you dodge perils. You have Advantage on Dexterity saving throws unless you have the Incapacitated condition.

===Reckless Attack===
''2nd level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You can throw aside all concern for defense to attack with increased ferocity. When you make your first attack roll on your turn, you can decide to attack recklessly. Doing so gives you Advantage on attack rolls using Strength until the start of your next turn, but attack rolls against you have Advantage during that time.

===Barbarian Subclass===
''3rd level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You gain a Barbarian {{5e24lc|Subclass}} of your choice. A subclass is a specialization that grants you features at certain Barbarian levels. For the rest of your career, you gain each of your subclass’s features that are of your Barbarian level or lower.

====List of Barbarian Subclasses====
<span style="font-size:8pt; color:red;">''Note: This section contains information beyond the {{5e24|SRD 5.2}}''</span>
<div style="display:block; overflow:auto; max-width:75svw; max-height:90vh;">
{{5e24 Subclass List|Barbarian}}
</div>

===Primal Knowledge===
''3rd level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You gain {{5e24lc|Proficiency}} in another {{5e24lc|Skill}} of your choice from the skill list available to Barbarians at level 1.

In addition, while your Rage is active, you can channel primal power when you attempt certain tasks; whenever you make an {{5e24lc|Ability Check}} using one of the following skills, you can make it as a '''''Strength check''''' even if it normally uses a different ability: {{5e24|Acrobatics}}, {{5e24|Intimidation}}, {{5e24|Perception}}, {{5e24|Stealth}}, or {{5e24|Survival}}. When you use this ability, your Strength represents primal power coursing through you, honing your agility, bearing, and senses.

===Ability Score Improvement===
''4th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You gain the {{5e24|Ability Score Improvement}} feat or another feat of your choice for which you qualify. You gain this feature again at Barbarian levels 8, 12, and 16.

===Extra Attack===
''5th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You can {{5e24lc|Attack}} twice instead of once whenever you take the {{5e24|Attack Action}} on your turn.

===Fast Movement===
''5th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
Your {{5e24lc|Speed}} increases by 10 feet while you aren’t wearing Heavy armor.

===Feral Instinct===
''7th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
Your instincts are so honed that you have Advantage on {{5e24|Initiative}} rolls.

===Instinctive Pounce===
''7th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
As part of the Bonus Action you take to enter your Rage, you can {{5e24lc|Move}} up to {{5e24lc|Half}} your {{5e24|Speed}}.

===Brutal Strike===
''9th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
If you use {{iplink|Reckless Attack}}, you can forgo any Advantage on one Strength-based attack roll of your choice on your turn. The chosen attack roll mustn’t have {{5e24|Disadvantage}}. If the chosen attack roll hits, the target takes an extra 1d10 damage of the same {{5e24|Damage Type|type}} dealt by the weapon or Unarmed Strike, and you can cause one Brutal Strike effect of your choice. You have the following effect options.
:'''Forceful Blow.''' The target is {{5e24lc|Push}}ed 15 feet straight away from you. You can then move up to half your Speed straight toward the target without provoking {{5e24|Opportunity Attack}}s.
:'''Hamstring Blow.''' The target’s Speed is reduced by 15 feet until the start of your next turn. A target can be affected by only one Hamstring Blow at a time — the most recent one.

===Relentless Rage===
''11th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
Your Rage can keep you fighting despite grievous wounds. If you drop to 0 {{5e24|Hit Point}}s while your Rage is active and don’t die outright, you can make a {{5e24|DC}} 10 {{5e24|Constitution}} saving throw. If you succeed, your Hit Points instead change to a number equal to twice your Barbarian level.

Each time you use this feature after the first, the DC increases by 5. When you finish a Short or Long Rest, the DC resets to 10.

===Improved Brutal Strike===
''13th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You have honed new ways to attack furiously. The following effects are now among your {{iplink|Brutal Strike}} options.
:'''Staggering Blow.''' The target has Disadvantage on the next saving throw it makes, and it can’t make Opportunity Attacks until the start of your next turn.
:'''Sundering Blow.''' Before the start of your next turn, the next attack roll made by another creature against the target gains a +5 bonus to the roll. An attack roll can gain only one Sundering Blow bonus.

===Persistent Rage===
''15th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
When you roll Initiative, you can regain all expended uses of {{iplink|Rage}}. After you regain uses of Rage in this way, you can’t do so again until you finish a Long Rest.

In addition, your Rage is so fierce that it now lasts for 10 minutes without you needing to do anything to extend it from round to round. Your Rage ends early if you have the {{5e24|Unconscious}} condition (not just the Incapacitated condition) or don Heavy armor.

===Improved Brutal Strike===
''17th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
The extra damage of your {{iplink|Brutal Strike}} increases to 2d10. In addition, you can use two different Brutal Strike effects whenever you use your Brutal Strike feature.

===Indomitable Might===
''18th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
If your total for a Strength check or Strength saving throw is less than your '''''Strength score''''', you can use that score in place of the total.

===Epic Boon===
''19th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You gain an {{5e24|Epic Boon}} feat or another {{5e24lc|Feat}} of your choice for which you qualify. {{5e24|Boon of Irresistible Offense}} is recommended.

===Primal Champion===
''20th level''<span style="display:inlineblock; float:right;"> <ref name="srd52.28" /><ref name="24fr" /><ref name="phb5e24" /> </span><br />
You embody primal power. Your Strength and Constitution scores increase by 4, to a maximum of 25.
