“There are many who consider the club to be a crude weapon. An inelegant instrument only paleolithic savages would utilize on the battlefield. Those are the combatants I find most enjoyable to educate.”

TRAITS

Primal Companion. Whenever Blakthörn finishes a Long Rest, he can summon a different primal beast, which appears in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of him. Blakthörn chooses its stat block: Beast of the Land, Beast of the Sea or Beast of the Sky. He also determine the kind of animal it is, choosing a kind appropriate for the stat block. Whatever beast he choose, it bears primal markings indicating its supernatural origin. If Blakthörn already has a beast from this feature, the old one vanishes when the new one appears.

Resourceful. Blakthörn gains Heroic Inspiration whenever he finishes a Long Rest.

Telepathic Utterance. Blakthörn can speak telepathically to any creature he can see within 60 feet of himself. Blakthörn’s telepathic utterances are in a language he knows, and the creature understands him only if it knows that language. His communication doesn’t give the creature the ability to respond to him telepathically.
