MCDM's Beastheart and Monstrous Companionscodifies the fantasy of adventuring alongside a wild companion. This supplement presents rules for companions: wild creatures that any character in your 5e game can befriend and bring along on adventures. They aren’t always easy to control, but having a basilisk bud is totally worth it.
The Beastheart class then builds on those rules, letting a character work in maximum harmony with a companion. This new class presents a hero who is never without their faithful friend, and who shares a supernatural bond with a companion that allows both to perform incredible feats fueled by primal power.
Let's get wild!
Monstrous Companions
In battle, your companion builds ferocity, a new resource they can spend to use special actions like Earthshaker, Slime Shower, and Owlie Oop. But beware: if your companion builds up too much ferocity, they can enter a rampage and might just attack you instead!
The Beastheart is a brand-new class that uses the companion rules to create an adventurer with a wild partner. The Beastheart is presented with five new subclasses:
Ferocious Bond
Hunter Bond
Infernal Bond
Primordial Bond
Protector Bond
Extras
We've also added eight new magic items made for companions and their caregivers, and an original piece of fiction from Matt Colville, “The First Meeting”.
