Path of Obsession in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Path of Obsession

Blade of Murderous Intent. Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, when you enter your rage and anytime you start your turn while raging you may summon your Blade of Murderous Intent into your hands. The Blade of Murderous Intent is a versatile weapon that deals slashing damage, and improves as you gain barbarian levels as shown in the Blade of Murderous Intent table, it is formed from the psionic energy of your Obsession with Anger.   Maddened Rebuke. At 3rd level, when you would otherwise resist damage you can as a reaction forgo your resistance and store half of the damage taken in your Blade of Murderous Intent the next time you deal damage with your Blade before the end of your next turn you deal additional psychic damage equal to that stored damage and it is expended.   Thrusted Hate. At 6th level, you can as a bonus action cause one willing creature within 30ft to, as a reaction, make a reckless attack. If you have damage stored in your Blade of Murderous Intent and the creature's attack hits they deal the additional psychic damage and expend it.   Forced Obsession. At 10th level, you can as a bonus action force a creature within 60ft to make a wisdom save against a DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your constitution modifier. If the creature fails this save they have disadvantage on attacks against creatures other than you and you have disadvantage against them as they are so focused on you. This effect lasts one minute and you can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus.   Expansive Obsession. At 14th, when you enter your rage you can expend additional uses of your rage to expand your rage to up to 8 willing creatures 30ft, you can also anytime whilst raging you can with as a bonus activate the same effect consuming uses of your rage, the uses expended in either case is equal to half the number of additional creatures effected. Those creatures gain an additional 10ft to their movement speed, advantage on Strength Checks and Saving Throws and a bonus to damage equal to your rage damage bonus. This effect lasts until your rage ends.
