Fierce Cock

HD- 1d8

AC- Base 10, Max 16

You are a warrior cock. Hailing from a fierce culture, you are trained in the art of the blade, dueling, and honor. You fight without a master, so you fight for yourself. You seek multiple wives, which are a requirement for societal advancement in your culture. The entrenched nobility of your land makes this difficult, and so you wander. As an avian creature, you take a maximum of 1 damage per damage dice dealt from a fall, or none if you have time to glide to safety. You are also fast and your reflexes let you always win ties on initiative rolls.

You're proud, and a bit of a materialist. Luxury is a part of your personality so you can't do without, which is probably why the adventuring life appeals to you so much. When wearing fashionable and comfortable clothes you get +1 to AC and saves. If you have given a sizable gift, usually jewelry, to all of your wives you get another +1 AC until something besmirches your reputation, or if even one wife becomes discontent with you. Pocket money given to your spouses counts as 'spent' for the purposes of gathering XP.

You're charming. You count as having +1 to all checks and rolls to woo, seduce, and charm anybody. You're also trained in etiquette and can freely speak with the proper respect and formality to nobility, making it unlikely for you to offend anyone of high class without intending to. Increase this bonus by +1 at levels 5 and 10. You roll reaction checks as normal as based on your Charisma- meeting people in the field is a whole different experience.

At levels 2, 4, 6, and 8 you get +1 to hit with all weapons.

At levels 4, 7, and 10 you get +1 damage with all weapons.

Your minimum HP is 5.

You are skilled at duels. Formal duels, such as fencing between nobles; or informal duels, such as when paired up with the orcs' champion, his troops watching but not allowed to interfere, both count. You lose your bonuses if somebody jumps in and ruins the duel. Once per duel, you may put yourself in an advantageous situation over your foe, giving you advantage on your next attack or roll.

In order to level up, you must take a wife. All wandering cocks like yourself are fiercely polygamous, but this doesn't necessarily mean you don't love or care for your wives any less then anyone else. You must take a wife each level, but are not so heartless as to need to “replace” them if any of them were to die or be separated from you. You'd need to have or have taken at least 9 wives to get to maximum level. All wives must be married to you in the traditions and customs of that land.

At 10^th level, you become a Proud Cock. Beyond the urge to settle down with your many lovers; your family will generate 1d4 speckled eggs that will one day hatch into young roosters- your sons. Your wives will still have normal children too, but weird fantasy genetics may have a few surprises. Your pride also increases, sometimes to the point of parody. The more ridiculous of an entrance you make, attended by servants, throwing confetti, a custom fanfare and so on will grant you more bonus AC. Up to including reaching your cap while fighting totally naked. You also become a master duelist, and can now once per battle know with absolute accuracy what your foe will do in the next combat round.

There is also rumor of Fierce and Proud Hens, stunning warrior women who sweep young virginal men off their feet to serve them as devoted husbands. This is rightly thought of as a rumor, and clearly is just some young woman's ridiculous power fantasy.
