The Totem of the Leopard is a new spirit animal option to complement those in the Player's Handbook (bear, eagle, wolf) and the Sword Coast Adventurer's guide (elk, tiger).
This powerful new path harnesses the agility and stealth of the leopard to give your barbarian a savage edge in battle.
Supplement includes:
-
New class abilities. New Totem Spirit, Aspect of the Beast and Totemic Attunement abilities for leopard totem warriors
-
Totemic variant rules for black panthers and snow leopards
-
Totem shape. New ritual-dependent, optional rule for all Path of the Totem Warrior barbarians.
-
Totem traits. A list of leopard-like character traits to help inspire roleplaying
-
Totem feats. Nine new totem-specific feats available to customise your leopard powers (Alpine Leaper, Deadly Predator, Eye of the Hunter, Fast Claws, Feline Evasion, Lone Survivor, Nine Lives, Razor Reflexes, The Black Queen).
-
Barbaric magic items. Six new thematic magic items.
-
Animal knowledge. Facts and figures about leopards to inspire your interpretation of this totem path.

This supplement was checked for mechanical and balance issues by three additional consultant DMs. The concept was to bring a viable new option to the Path of the Totem Warrior, with plenty of flavour, without overshadowing the options already presented in the Player's Handbook.
