Brute (Apath)

Unofficial rules compendium

The brute is no spiritual tribesman, he is simply a big guy with a bad temper.

Class Information

This is a Barbarian archetype

Hit Die: d12.

Class Abilities

The brute has all the class abilities of the barbarian, except as noted below.

Brutish Recovery

Keep track of your hit point score when you enter rage. When a rage ends, the brute automatically heals a number of hit points equal to the hit points gained from the rage bonus to Constitution. This healing works even if the brute would orinarily have died when the rage ends. This ability cannot restore you to a higher hit point total than before the rage. This replaces all rage powers.

Endurance

A brute gains Endurance as a bonus feat at first level.
