New page

This is a variant rule set for D&D 5th Edition, inspired by the 3.5 edition’s E6 rules. Put simply, class levels above 6th do not exist; 6th level characters are epic heroes of renown. The rules are very simple:

'''6th level is the maximum '''

There are no characters higher than 6th level in the world; this further means that there are no spells of 4th level or higher, no magic items based on those spells, etc. It is possible that more powerful characters may have existed in the legendary past, but their time is long gone.

'''Characters can still improve after reaching 6th level=='''

Although characters cannot gain levels past 6th, they can still improve themselves. For every 10,000 XP a character gains past 6th level, they may choose one of the following Improvements. For games that use milestones rather than experience points, simply award one improvement whenever you would award a milestone.

==Improvements==
*'''Feat.''' The character gains a single feat. They must meet the prerequisites normally. Note that a character may not select an ability score increase, but feats that increase one ability score function normally (subject to the cap of 20 in all ability scores).
*'''Heroic Talent.''' The character gains a heroic talent from the list below. Each heroic talent can only be taken once, and the character must meet the prerequisites.
*'''Class Talent.''' The character gains a class talent for their class, chosen from the list below. The character must meet the prerequisites; each class talent can be taken only once unless otherwise noted.

==Heroic Talents==
These are abilities that any epic character can take, regardless of class. Each heroic talent can only be taken once.

'''Enduring'''

''Prerequisite:'' 6th level
You gain one additional hit die, increasing your maximum hit points as normal.

'''Legendary Ability'''

''Prerequisites:'' 6th level, at least one ability score of 20.
You gain the ability to exceed the normal mortal maximum for a single ability score. Whichever ability score is 20 increases by +1. If you have multiple ability scores at 20, you must choose one of them to benefit from this talent.
Note: You can take this talent twice, increasing the designated ability score to a maximum of 22.

==Class Talents==
These abilities allow a character to improve their skill at their chosen profession.

===BARBARIAN===

'''Brutal Critical'''

You can roll one additional weapon damage die when determining the extra damage for a critical hit with a melee attack.

'''Feral Instinct'''

Additionally, if you are surprised at the beginning of combat and aren't incapacitated, you can act normally on your first turn, but only if you enter your rage before doing anything else on that turn.

'''Path Feature'''

You gain the class feature for your barbarian path that you would normally gain at 10th level.

'''Superior Rage'''

Your rage damage and number of rages per day both increase by +1.

Note: You may take this talent twice.

'''Magical Secrets'''

You have plundered magical knowledge from a wide spectrum of disciplines. Choose two spells from any class, including this one. A spell you choose must be of a level you can cast, as shown on the Bard table, or a cantrip.

The chosen spells count as bard spells for you and are included in the number in the Spells Known column of the Bard table.

'''Reliable Inspiration'''

Whenever someone expends one of your Inspiration Dice and rolls a 1, they may reroll that die. They must take the result of the reroll even if it is another 1.
