Their trademark rage is a primal connection to the essence of fury and hatred. Some Barbarians however, take a different approach to battle. For some, violence and conflict are the things that bring them joy and happiness. Warfare is a game, its not about winning but  \nabout having fun. And winning.  \nBarbarians who pursue the Path of Joy are smilers. Happy brutes who delight in their abilities and relish being able to use them. At 3rd level, when you choose this path, you gain Proficiency in the Persuasion skill if you don't already have it. You have advantage on persuasion checks made to convince others to fight.  \nBeginning at 3rd level, your happiness bolsters your defenses. While you are raging, you have resistance to psychic damage and advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.  \nStarting at 6th level, your positive attitude allows you to brush off potentially deadly attacks with increased ease. When calculating your Armor Class using your Unarmored Defense feature, you also add your Charisma modifier.  \nAt 10th level, your enthusiasm for battle radiates from you in waves. While you are raging, you and allies within 60 feet who can see or hear you gain 1d6 temporary hit points at the beginning of your turn.  \nFrom 14th level, your enjoyment is truly disturbing to your foes. When you are hit by an attack, you may use your reaction to laugh at your attacker. They must succeed on a DC16 Wisdom saving throw or become Frightened of you indefinitely. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect and gaining immunity to Terrible Laughter for 24 hours on a success.  \nDUNGEONS & DRAGONS, D&D, Wizards of the Coast, Forgotten Realms, Ravenloft, Eberron, the dragon ampersand, Ravnica and all other Wizards of the Coast product names, and their respective logos are trademarks of Wizards of the Coast in the USA and other countries.
