Path of the Muscle Wizard

Level 3

Be a Buff, Angry "Wizard"

You're a wizard! Perhaps you went to wizarding school on a football scholarship or just picked up a book at the gym and started reading. No matter how you got here, you're a wizard, one that just coincidentally has massive, rippling muscles. You have the big dumb hat and the book filled with gibberish and everything!

You gently remind others, often by beating them to a pulp and cracking their bones, that your magical powers shouldn't be questioned. You're a good wizard—the best one, even! And only a fool would say otherwise.

Unarguable Wizardry

Your unquestionable legitimacy (and immense pectoral muscles) give you Advantage on Charisma (Intimidation) checks made to convince others that you are, in fact, a wizard.

Additionally, if someone questions your legitimate magical prowess, you can take a Reaction to enter your XPHB until the end of your next turn. This Rage can't be extended and doesn't expend a use of your Rage.

"Cantrips"

You can call upon your "magic" to cast "Cantrips" in combat. Once on each of your turns when you hit a target with a Strength-based attack, you can use one of the following "Cantrips" of your choice.

Mage Hand

You can push the target up to 5 feet straight away from yourself if it is Large size or smaller. While your XPHB is active, you can push the target up to 10 feet instead.

Shocking Grasp

The force of your strike is quite shocking. The target can't make Opportunity Attacks until the end of the current turn. While your XPHB is active, it can't make Opportunity Attacks until the start of your next turn.

True Strike

You really, truly strike, dealing an extra 1d6 damage to the target. The damage has the same type as the weapon or Unarmed Strike used for the attack. While your XPHB is active, you add half your Barbarian level (round down) to the extra damage.

"Spells"

Level 6

Your "magic" is powerful enough to cast every "spell" that exists (and no one can prove otherwise without broken ribs). However, you only prepared the following "spells" today. While your XPHB is active, you can use each of the following "Spells" once. When you do so, you can't use that "Spell" again until you finish a Long Rest.

Burning Hands

Your backhand slap is legendary. As an action, you can make an Unarmed Strike against each creature within your reach. On a hit, this strike deals Bludgeoning damage equal to 1d8 plus your Strength modifier and the target has Disadvantage on the next attack it makes before the start of your next turn.

Magic Missile

As an action, you can make three ranged attacks using Darts, Daggers, or other weapons with Thrown that use Strength for the attack and damage rolls. Because Magic Missile never misses, you have Advantage on these attack rolls.

Shield

When you are hit by an attack roll, you can take a Reaction to quickly don a Shield to defend yourself. You gain the Shield's AC bonus against the triggering attack, potentially causing it to miss. If the attack hits, the damage dealt to you is reduced by an amount equal to your Barbarian level.

Magic Resistance

Level 10

You're such an amazing wizard that other wizards can't even touch you. While your XPHB is active, you have Advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

I Cast Fist

Level 14

You can crush your enemies with your ultimate "spell":

Fist

When you take the Attack action while your XPHB is active, you can replace one of your attacks with a really hard punch. Make an Unarmed Strike with Advantage. On a hit, the target takes Bludgeoning damage equal to 6d6 plus your Strength modifier and has the Prone condition if it is Huge or smaller. You can use this feature once per active Rage.
