* '''Fighting Style'''
'''Standard Tactics:'''  
** '''Protection Fighter''': While wielding a shield, Magnus can impose disadvantage on attack rolls against characters within 5 feet.
* '''Second Wind''': Magnus has a limited well of stamina that he can draw on to protect himself from harm. On Magnus' turn, he can use a bonus action to regain hit points equal to 1d10 + his fighter level. Once he uses this feature, Magnus must finish a short or long rest before he can use it again.
* '''Action Surge''': Magnus can push himself beyond his normal limits for a moment. On Magnus' turn, he can take one additional action on top of his regular action and a possible bonus action.
* '''Martial Archetype: Battle Master'''
** '''Maneuvers'''
*** ''Commander's Strike'' - When Magnus takes the Attack action on his turn, he can forgo one of his attacks and use a bonus action to direct one of his companions to strike.
*** ''Disarming Attack'' - When Magnus hits a creature with a weapon attack, he can expend one superiority die to attempt to disarm the target, forcing it to drop one item of his choice that it’s holding.
*** ''Goading Attack'' - When Magnus hits a creature with a weapon attack, he can expend one superiority die to attempt to goad the target into attacking him.
*** ''Parry'' - When another creature damages Magnus with a melee attack, he can use his reaction and expend one superiority die to reduce the damage by the number he rolls on his superiority die + his Dexterity modifier.
*** ''Riposte'' - When a creature misses Magnus with a melee attack, he can use his reaction and expend one superiority die to make a melee weapon attack against the creature.
*** ''Precision Strike'' - When Magnus makes a weapon attack roll against a creature, he can expend one superiority die to add it to the roll.
** '''Know Your Enemy''': If Magnus spends at least one minute observing or interacting with a creature outside combat, he can learn certain information about its capabilities compared to his own.
* '''Extra Attack''': Magnus can attack three times instead of once, whenever he takes the Attack action on his turn.
* '''Indomitable''': Magnus can reroll a saving throw that he fails. If he does so, he must use the new roll, and he can't use this feature again until he finishes a long rest.


=== Rogue ===
'''Weaknesses:'''


* '''Expertise''': Magnus chooses two of their skill proficiencies or one of his skill proficiencies and his proficiency with thieves’ tools. Magnus' proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check he makes that uses either of the chosen proficiencies.
==Trivia==
* '''Stealth Attack''': When attacking with advantage while using a finesse weapon or a ranged weapon, Magnus adds 1d6 damage on the attack.
* '''Thieves' Cant''': During Magnus' rogue training, he learned thieves’ cant, a secret mix of dialect, jargon, and code that allows him to hide messages in seemingly normal conversation. Only another creature that knows thieves cant understands such messages.
* '''Cunning Action''': Once per turn, Magnus can take a bonus action and either dash, disengage or hide.


=== Feats ===
==References==


* '''Dual Wielder''': Magnus mastered fighting with two weapons, gaining the following benefits:
==Gallery==
** He gains a +1 bonus to AC while he is wielding a separate melee weapon in each hand.
** He can use two-weapon fighting even when the one-handed melee weapons he is wielding aren’t light.
** He can draw or stow two one-handed weapons when he would normally be able to draw or stow only one.

...Take one look at him and I think any questions of his parentage are soon resolved. He never seemed to like it much, there, growing up within Lord Hades' well-appointed house. One day I took him on as a disciple, under orders from Lord Hades; the Master worried that his heir lacked any firm direction in his life. And, indeed, Zagreus took well to the martial ways, and I am proud to say now that he was my student.
~ Zagreus' codex entry

He was never insubordinate with me, despite his reputation. Perhaps my own lack of decorum in my youth made it easier for us to get along. He learned quickly, exhibiting his father's might, and even greater swiftness. Yet, he soon showed a quality that startled me much more. Forgive me, O gods! You are not known for your kindness. But this son of Lord Hades always regarded me, a mere shade, with respect; and the congenial manner of an old friend. Rumors swirl about the lad; about how he bleeds red like a mortal does. Well, if there's a trace of mortality in him, I am certain he is better for it. I should know.
