Medic
Dedicated Healer
Medics will often be found wandering through a circuit of villages that are too poor to support a cleric powerful enough to heal major injuries and diseases, not only do they heal the injuries and illnesses that they find in their journeys they will also try educate villages in hygiene and basic first aid and report unusual diseases and afflictions to major medical institutions. A medical institution can be found in most cities although few are independent with most being part of a temple or university. Every medical institute trains new medics and researches new techniques but some will also work with the government to try improve the health of all residents (like how it is in the real world) and some work to thwart villains designing diseases to cause lethal epidemics.Creating a Medic

Medical Practice
Starting at 1st level, you can treat your allies by tapping into their inner reserves. As an action you can spend one hit die of a creature within 5 feet to cause that creature to regain a number of hit points equal to the number rolled + your Intelligence modifier. If you have other sources of non-magical healing, you can use this feature to increase the amount of hit points healed, as part of the same action, bonus action or reaction used.Field Medic
Also at 1st level, as a reaction, whenever an allied creature you can see takes damage, you can move up to your movement speed toward that creature. If you ended your movement within 5 feet of that creature, you can use half of your remaining movement speed to drag it away. Starting at 4th level, if an allied creature has taken damage since your last turn, you can choose instead to move up to your movement speed toward that creature and use this reaction to touch it, restoring a number of hit points equal to a roll of your Treatment Die.Medical Procedures
At 2nd level, you develop more specialized medical techniques and practices to tend to the wounds of your allies. Your techniques are fueled by an amount of Treatment Dice you have.Treatment Dice
Starting at 2nd level, you have an amount of Treatment Dice equal to your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier, which are d6's. You can use Treatment Dice instead of the target creature's hit dice to activate your Medical Practice. When you use a Treatment Dice, it is spent until you finish a short or a long rest. The size of the die increases to 1d8 at 7th level, 1d10 at 14th level, and 1d12 at 18th level.Hit Dice
You can spend the target's hit dice instead of spending treatment dice to use Procedures, if the target is willing. If you do so, you don't benefit from the extra healing from the Medical Practice feature.Procedures
You start by knowing two medical procedures. You gain two more at 5th, 9th, 13th and 17th levels. The procedures are described at the end of the class description.Save DC
Some procedures require the target to make a saving throw. The save DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.Healer's Kit
Each procedure spends a number of uses of your Healer's Kit equal to the amount of dice spent. You can replenish half of the uses of the Healer’s kit during a short rest, and all of them during a long rest.Revival Procedure
Starting at 7th level, whenever you make a Wisdom (Medicine) check to stabilize a creature, if you roll a 18, 19 or 20, that creature regains 1 hit point.Diagnosis
Also at 7th level, as an action, you can study a living creature to gain insight on its physical state. You learn one of the target’s following statistics: Damage Vulnerabilities, Damage Resistances, Damage Immunities, Highest Saving Throw, Lowest Saving Throw, or whether or not the creature is below half or a quarter of its health. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (a minimum of once). You regain expended uses when you finish a Short Rest.Sedate
By 10th level you have managed to create sedatives using standard supplies. As an action you can inject a willing creature with a sedative that will cause them to go unconscious for 1d4 hours. You can also attempt to inject an unwilling creature for the same effect. An unwilling target must be below one quarter of its maximum hit points for this ability to take effect. They must then succeed a Constitution saving throw or immediately fall unconscious for 1d4 hours. You can’t use this feature again until you finish a long rest.Extensive Treatment
At 14th level, as an action, you can spend 2 Treatment Dice to reduce the level of exhaustion on a creature you touch by 1. Alternatively, you can choose to end one effect that is reducing the creature's maximum hit points or one of its ability scores.Preventive Treatment
Starting at 19th level, you can spend 3 Treatment Dice during a short rest to make a preventive treatment, targeting a number of creatures up to twice your Intelligence modifier.. Each targeted creature gains temporary hit points equal to a roll of your Treatment Die + your Intelligence modifier, is cured from all diseases and poison and gains advantage on its next Constitution saving throw. These effects last until the end of the target’s next short rest.Medical Discovery
At 20th level you recognize that the limitations of the mortal body are simply defects waiting to be corrected. You target a specific stat; Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma and attempt to improve it. This may involve replacing organs, changing appearance, or altering brain chemistry. To be successful you must succeed on a DC25 Medicine check or the procedure fails. On a success the target gains a permanent +1 bonus to the targeted ability score. You may not attempt this procedure on the same target more than 3 times, regardless of success or failure. Due to your skills a failure does not inflict any negative effects on the target, but the target receives no benefits. The procedure takes eight hours from start to finish, and cannot be paused or interrupted. The targeted creature takes five days to recover, and remains incapacitated. In addition, whenever you roll initiative and have no Treatment Dice, you regain a number of Treatment Dice equal to your Intelligence modifier.subclass options:
It has advantage on all ability checks, attack rolls and saving throws.
It gains temporary hit points equal to its maximum of hit points, that last for 1 minute or until reduced to 0.
It gains resistance to slashing, piercing and bludgeoning damage.
It can end this state as a bonus action on its own turn. After one minute, the target suffers 1 level of exhaustion for each 2 rounds it ends without ending this state.
