Let’s keep building on the idea of con as a weapon!
Full Body Swing
Some people use their whole body when they swing. Those with a fuller body get more of a swing! Gain the following benefits:

Funny thing, gladiators were not thin, trim guys. They were surprisingly fat. A guy with a gut can take a knife, spray a bit of blood to wow the crowds, and not get his abdominal wall punctured and the accompanying death sentence that goes with that. Let’s build that into DnD 5e!
Full Body Defense
You’re big, but not exactly tall for the build. You’re built hard enough to take the hits and not exactly care. Gain the fallowing benefits:

How about a monk the learns from an animal? When I did Kung Fu, I practiced the animal forms. Let’s make that work in DnD 5e for the Monk.
Master of Animal Forms
Animal Sensei
Starting at 3rd level, you gain an animal companion as per the ranger rules. However, you may only choose from the following animals. In addition to the ranger rules for animal companion actions, once per turn, you may spend a ki point as a bonus action to issue a command to your animal companion. You must also pick a time each day when your animal companion will train you. This time lasts for 3 minutes per character level. During this time you may change the animal companion that is training you with no negative repercussions.
| Animal | Page | Bonus Skill | Bonus Save |
| Constrictor Snake | PHB 305 | Slight of Hand | Con |
| Giant Owl | MM327 | Perception | Cha |
| Panther | PHB 308 | Stealth | Wis |
| Wolf | PHB 311 | Athletics | Int |
Animal Training
At 6th level, you begin to learn the lessons of your animal companion. You gain proficiency in a skill and saving throw associated with your animal companion. If you are already proficient with the skill or saving throw, then you double your proficiency bonus.
Two Masters
At 11th level, you have continued so deep into your training that you now gain the bonus of your Animal Training class feature for two different animals. You still only have one animal companion.
The Fifth Animal
At 17th level, you have reached the peak of your training, and your animal companion now reflects it. You now gain a dragon wyrmling as your animal companion. It still gains the bonuses as a animal companion as normal (hit points, addition of proficiency to attack, etc), but also has all the skills, immunities, and other creature abilities as a dragon wyrmling. Each day you may choose a different dragon wyrmling type during your training as well as two different animals for your bonuses from your Two Masters class feature.

Lot’s of spells require an action to make them tick. Let’s build on that for DnD 5e
Spell Manipulation Master
You know how to make spells tick and to get the most out of them when you cast them. Gain the following:

We have Critically Fast for Pathfinder, so let’s make it for DnD 5e.
Critically Fast
You move so fast you’re a blur to the eye! Gain the following benefits:
Thoughts?
What?! No Diehard feat in DnD5e? Let’s fix this!
Diehard
You are a solid tower of stone. No blow can fell you unless it would drop a kingdom. Gain the following benefit:
Thoughts? Too much? Too little? I’d like to hear what you have to say!
How much is a feat worth? Who would take a feat for just one extra attach each turn? Let’s find out.
No Lost Blade Time
You blades move quickly. So much so it’s a blur to the eye. You gain a bonus action each turn that can be used to make a single extra attack. This is not an extra attack action, but a single attack. If you are welding two weapons, you may make an attack with each weapon. If you have the action surge power, you may spend your action surge to take two full attack actions as part of the bonus action.
Thoughts? Is this too much, not enough, or just about right?
If you can thing through your actions, you can also throw caution to the wind!
Impulsive
When you take the attack action, you can forgo your reaction for this round,from the start of this turn until the start of your next turn, to instead gain an extra attack as part of this action. You add all modifiers to the attack and it’s damage as normal.
Thoughts?
How about someone who thinks through his/her actions instead of charges in? Let’s make that happen…
Calculating
When you take the attack action, you can forgo your first attack as part of that action and instead gain an extra reaction this round. You can take this reaction at any time until the start of your next turn. Also, if you gain an extra attack via two weapon fighting, you must give up the attack that has your ability bonus added into damage.

I like characters that protect others. Let’s make a cantrip for clerics who do less damage but help a bit more.
Shield the Faithful
Abjuration cantrip
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 50 feet
Components: V,S
Duration: Instantaneous
Choose a creature in range. That creature get +1 to armor class until the start of your next round, and then choose a creature engaged with the primary target to make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, that creature is bathed in scorching light and takes 1d6 radiant damage.
The spell’s damage increases by 1d6 when you reach 5th level (2d6), 11th level (3d6), and 17th level (4d6).
