You have honed your martial prowess and gain a {{iplink|Fighting Style}} {{5e24lc|Feat}} of your choice<!-- (see chapter 5)-->. {{5e24|Defense}} is recommended. | |||
Whenever you gain a Fighter level, you can replace the feat you chose with a different Fighting Style feat. | |||

You have a limited well of physical and mental stamina that you can draw on. As a {{5e24|Bonus Action}}, you can use it to regain {{5e24|Hit Point}}s equal to 1d10 plus your Fighter level. | |||
You can use this feature twice. 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}}. | |||
When you reach certain Fighter levels, you gain more uses of this feature, as shown in the Second Wind column of the {{iplink|Fighter Features}} table. | |||

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

You have a mind for tactics on and off the battlefield. When you fail an {{5e24lc|Ability Check}}, you can expend a use of your {{iplink|Second Wind}} to push yourself toward success. Rather than regaining Hit Points, you roll 1d10 and add the number rolled to the ability check, potentially turning it into a success.
