The Beastheart Class¶
Beastheart¶
A beastheart never fights alone! You travel with a ferocious beast by your side—no trained pet, but an untamed creature such as a wolf, a basilisk, or even a young dragon. Bound to you by a primordial connection, your companion honors your wishes just as you are guided by their instincts. But beware! As battle rages on, your companion may succumb to a blood-soaked rampage, lashing out at enemies and friends alike.
As a beastheart, you face the world's dangers alongside your wild companion. With your combined might, you rush into the thick of combat to challenge enemy champions or prowl around the outskirts to pick off vulnerable foes.

Draw Steel Master Classes¶
The Beastheart is an example of a master class in Draw Steel. Master classes are intended for players who are familiar with the game and have played a few sessions. They aren't recommended for first time players—you need to know the rules before we start breaking them on you!
If you're new to Draw Steel, we recommend checking out The Delian Tomb starter adventure, which includes a step-by-step tutorial on how to play the game and breaks down all the working parts of a hero. Save Broadhurst first, then hurry back here!
1st-Level Features¶
As a 1st-level beastheart, you gain the following features.
Wild Nature¶
Wild Nature
Your bond with your companion has awakened ancient, predatory instincts in you that fuel your battle prowess. But you aren't bound by your primal passions. As you decide which of your instincts to ignore and which to hone to deadly sharpness, you choose a wild nature from the following options, each of which grants you a skill. (Quick Build: Punisher.)
Guardian: You are the fearless defender of your pack—anyone who harms them must go through you. You have the Read Person skill.
Prowler: You are an unseen ambusher that strikes from the shadows. Your prey is dead before they even know you're there. You have the Hide skill.
Punisher: Using brute force, you overwhelm anyone unwise enough to earn your wrath. You have the Endurance skill.
Spark: Your connection to nature has imbued you and your companion with the raging magic of an elemental storm. Flame, frost, and lightning crackle from your hands and their claws. You have the Magic skill.
Your wild nature is your subclass, and your choice of wild nature determines many of the features you'll gain as you gain new levels.
Companion¶
Companion
You gain the companionship of a wild animal who travels with you. Your companion isn't your pet. Rather, they've forged a mystical bond with you—one that allows you to share your companion's senses and primal instincts.
Choose a companion from the following options. (Quick Build: Wolf.)
Customizing Your Companion
Want a companion not listed here? You can often use one of these stat blocks to represent a similar beast. For instance, you could use the condor companion for an escaped Hawklord hawk, the wolf for a dog or jackal, or even the boar for a particularly ornery stag or elk.
With the Director's permission, you can also change the damage types of your companion's abilities to better match your vision. Perhaps instead of a hellhound you travel with a white wolf that deals cold damage instead of fire damage; maybe your elemental spark is an elemental ember that deals fire damage; or maybe your panther is a shadow whose Pounce maneuver deals corruption or cold damage.
Companion Stat Blocks¶

A stoned creature is magically turning to stone. Each time a creature fails the saving throw to end this effect, they take corruption damage equal to the basilisk's Might score. A stoned creature or a creature adjacent to them can use a maneuver to cut the encroaching stone from the stoned target's body, ending the effect and dealing damage to the target equal to twice the basilisk's Might score that can't be reduced in any way. A creature reduced to 0 Stamina while they are stoned, or by an ability that causes a creature to become stoned, is turned to stone until they are restored to life by magical means.

Companion Rules¶
Companion Rules
- Companion Stamina and Recoveries. Your companion's Stamina maximum equals your Stamina maximum. Your companion has no Recoveries. When an effect would allow your companion to spend a Recovery, your companion spends one of your Recoveries.
- Companion Death. A companion can become dying at 0 Stamina and die at negative half their Stamina, just like a hero.
- Companion Actions. Your companion is your ally, but they take their turn as a part of your turn. For the purpose of effects that end at the end of the companion's turn, or any other rules elements that depend on the start or end of creature's turn, the start and end of your turn is also the start and end of the companion's turn.
- You and your companion each take your own move action. You can use one triggered action per round, which can be used by either you or your companion. Your main action and maneuver are split between you and your companion; if you take a main action, you can't take a maneuver but your companion can. If you take a maneuver, you can't take a main action but your companion can. Taking a main action doesn't prevent you or your companion from taking free maneuvers.
- You and your companion share one turn during montage tests and similar scenes. Typically, you'll take this turn, but there may be circumstances when your companion does instead.
- Ranged Free Strikes. Your companion doesn't have a ranged free strike. Shared Maneuvers. When you or your companion use the Catch Breath, Escape Grab, Hide, or Stand Up maneuvers, your partner can use the same maneuver as a triggered free action.
- Shared Abilities. You and your companion share some abilities, but not all of them. If a beastheart ability has the Beastheart keyword, it can be used by only the beastheart. If it has the Companion keyword, it can be used by only the companion. If an ability can be used by either you or your companion, the word "you" in the ability's text refers to whoever uses the ability, while the word "partner" refers to whoever didn't use the ability. Within a companion's stat block, the word "you" always refers to the beastheart. In all cases, phrases like "you both" and "you each" refer to you and your companion.
- Shared Senses. While you are within 1 mile of each other, you and your companion can communicate telepathically as if you shared a language, although this communication uses vague images and feelings instead of words.
- Shared Skills. Your companion has any skill you have, and vice versa. No matter what skills they possess, your companion can't take any action their physiology wouldn't allow (for instance, a wolf can't pick locks).
- Shared Space. You and your companion can move freely through and stop in each other's spaces.
- Shared Perks, Titles, and Complications. If you gain a benefit or drawback by earning a perk, a title, or a complication, your companion shares the benefit or drawback. Your companion can only be affected by benefits or drawbacks that logically affect an animal: for instance, an animal can't craft and therefore can't benefit from the Handy perk. If you're not sure what your companion can do, ask your Director.
- Surges. Surges you and your companion gain are added to a surge pool you both can spend from. When an effect would grant 1 or more surges to both you and your companion, you only gain the surges once.
- Changing Your Companion. As a respite activity, you can release your current companion, then gain a new companion of a different species or summon a companion you previously released.
- One Hero. You and your companion count as one hero for determining the difficulty of combats, montage tests, and other challenges.
Adding and Subtracting Actions¶
Adding and Subtracting Actions
Although you and your companion share your action economy, you are treated as separate creatures for effects that grant or remove main actions, maneuvers, and move actions. For instance, the talent's Applied Chronometrics ability grants an extra maneuver. If both you and your companion are targeted by the ability, you both gain extra maneuvers.
Similarly, the dazed condition limits what a creature can do on their turn. Being dazed works the same on you and your companion as it does on other creatures; whoever is dazed can only do one thing on their turn (a move action, maneuver, or main action). You being dazed has no effect on your companion, and vice versa.
Heart of the Beast¶
Heart of the Beast
You and your companion share a primordial bond so intense your hearts literally beat as one. If your partner is lost, you can split your heart in two and summon them back to your side.
Both you and your companion can use the following ability.
Heart of the Beast
"Better look away—this might not be pretty."
You must spend a Recovery without regaining Stamina. Your partner gains temporary Stamina equal to your recovery value as they leap out of your chest. Your partner teleports to your space from any distance, even if they don't have line of effect to you.
Feral Strike
Relying on their instincts, your companion launches toward the nearest threat. Your companion lunges into the fray, attacking wildly with teeth, claws, or other weapons.
Your companion moves up to a number of squares equal to their Intuition score straight toward the closest enemy they are aware of, avoiding damaging terrain and ending the movement when they are adjacent to that enemy.
Your companion then makes the following power roll:
This ability gains the following benefit based on your wild nature.
- Guardian: Each enemy target is taunted by your companion until the start of your next turn.
- Prowler: Each enemy target is weakened until the start of your next turn.
- Punisher: Your companion slides each target up to a number of squares equal to their Might score.
- Spark: This strike deals cold, fire, lightning, or sonic damage. You gain 1 surge.
Ferocity¶
Ferocity
You and your companion tap into a predator's bloodlust that grants you a Heroic Resource called ferocity.
Ferocity in Combat
At the start of a combat encounter or some other stressful situation tracked in combat rounds (as determined by the Director), you gain ferocity equal to your Victories. At the start of each of your turns during combat, you gain 1d3 ferocity.
Additionally, the first time each combat round that a creature adjacent to your companion takes damage, you gain 2 ferocity.
You lose any remaining ferocity at the end of the encounter.
Ferocity Outside of Combat
Though you can't gain ferocity outside of combat, you can use your heroic abilities and effects that cost ferocity without spending it. Whenever you or your companion uses an ability or effect outside of combat that costs ferocity, that same ability or effect can't be used outside of combat again until you earn 1 or more Victories or finish a respite.
When you or your companion uses an ability outside of combat that has a variable or unlimited ferocity cost, the ability can be used as if you had spent an amount of ferocity equal to your Victories.
Rampage¶
Rampage
While your ferocity sharpens your killer instinct, it can also drive your companion into a rampage, causing them to strike friends and foes alike in a blood-soaked battle frenzy. As their rampage builds, they become something more than a mortal companion, embodying a primordial spirit of destruction.
Your companion has a resource called rampage. Whenever you or your companion spends ferocity, your companion gains rampage equal to the ferocity spent. Your companion loses their rampage and its effects at the end of an encounter.
Your companion doesn't spend rampage to activate abilities. Instead, when your companion gains 8 rampage, they are rampaging. As your companion's rampage increases, they gain the listed effects from the Rampage table. Effects are cumulative. Some Rampage effects are applied only if you are a specific level or higher, with the level of these effects noted in the Rampage table.
| Rampage | |
|---|---|
| Rampage | Effect |
| 8 | At the end of each of your turns, your companion must use their Feral Strike ability as a free maneuver. You can’t willingly decrease the power roll outcome to a lower tier. For each ally damaged this way, you gain 2 surges, which you can use on this strike. |
| 12 | Your companion has damage immunity equal to their Intuition score. |
| 16 (4th level) | When your companion uses their Feral Strike ability, they deal extra damage equal to their Intuition score to each target. You gain 1 additional surge for each ally damaged this way. |
| 20 (7th level) | As a free maneuver, your companion can increase their size up to size 2, or increase their size by 1 if their original size is already 2 or larger. This size increase lasts until your companion’s rampage ends or they use a free maneuver to end it. While your companion’s size is increased, they gain a +2 bonus to speed and stability, the potencies of their abilities increase by 1, and the size of their Feral Strike ability’s burst increases by 1. |
| 24 (10th level) | When your companion increases their size, they can increase it up to size 3, or increase their size by 1 if their original size is already 3 or larger. Whenever they make a power roll while their size is increased this way, they can roll 3d10 and discard the lowest roll. |

You and your companion both gain the benefits of the kit, with the following exceptions:
- Only you can use the kit's signature ability, not your companion.
- Your companion is always armed to the teeth. When choosing or changing a kit, your companion can choose between the melee damage bonus provided by the kit (if any) or a melee damage bonus of +0/+0/+4.
Beasthearts and Magic Treasure
Consumables
Your companion can't use every consumable, but with your help, they can benefit from an edible or drinkable consumable, such as a Healing Potion.
