Barbarian Features!
Charging Attack
Starting at 3rd level, when you take this path, your rage becomes one with your weapon, allowing you to strike with a fierce blow.
While raging, you can use your bonus action to charge your blade with your rage, and your speed is set to 0 until the end of the current turn. The next attack you make with your weapon, its attacks score a critical hit on a roll of 18 to 20, and it deals the maximum number on each of the weapon's damage dice. Any additional dice added to the attack's damage roll are not affected by this ability. However, if the weapon is non-magical and doesn't have the heavy or two-handed property, it is destroyed after the attack.
Intimidating Blow
Also at 3rd level, your critical strikes are more deadly due to your weapon's empowerment. When you score a critical hit while raging, you can choose to force all creatures (including the critically hit creature) within 30 feet of the critically hit creature to make a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Constitution modifier). On a failed save, the targets are frightened of you until the end of your next turn. On a successful save, a creature is immune to this effect for the next 24 hours.
Alternatively, you can forgo the frightened effect to instead deal an additional weapon's damage die to all targets that fail the save as thunder damage. If you have Brutal Critical, they take additional damage dice equal to your Brutal Critical dice amount. For example, if you have Brutal Critical (1 die) then they take 2 of the weapons die instead of one.
Weapons of the Dai-Ken
Starting at 6th level, your rage becomes one with your weapon as not only do you scream with anger but so does your weapon as it rings out with anger. While raging and wielding a heavy or two-handed weapon, you gain the following benefits:
- Your attacks with heavy or two-handed weapons ignore resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
- When you take the attack action, you can replace one of your attacks to slam your weapon into the ground, creating a shockwave in a 15ft-cone from you. Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Constitution modifier). On a failed save, a creature takes thunder damage equal to your two of your weapon's damage dice (its maximum damage if you used Charging Attack) and is knocked prone. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and isn't knocked prone.

Death Shepherds (Persuasion and Druidic)
Conjure your Beasts
You learn the Find Familiar spell, and the first time you cast it you don't consume a spell slot. This spell doesn't count against your number of spells known. When you cast the spell, you can summon up to two Familiars of your choice but they cannot be the same form.

Misc Features!
Library Access
As an acolyte, you command the respect of those who share your faith, and you can perform the religious ceremonies of your deity. You and your adventuring companions can expect to receive free healing and care at a temple, shrine, or other established presence of your faith, though you must provide any material components needed for spells. Those who share your religion will support you (but only you) at a modest lifestyle.
You might also have ties to a specific temple dedicated to your chosen deity or pantheon, and you have a residence there. This could be the temple where you used to serve, if you remain on good terms with it, or a temple where you have found a new home. While near your temple, you can call upon the priests for assistance, provided the assistance you ask for is not hazardous and you remain in good standing with your temple.
