I just thought it would be cool to make this. Feedback is appreciated!

Looks cool, did you playtested it?

I haven’t playtested it yet, but just from the looks of it, it looks playable to me.

Hi there. Great fighter subclass but I'm a bit confused by the 10th level ability. Casting spare the dying as a bonus is fine and all but what is the use of it until 18th? It only works when the said person is down with 0 HP and the wording of it is..really strange I'll be honest
3
When you are unconcious you are incapacitated and can't cast spells, especially on yourself. Therefore this feature won't work as written for Level 10.
That said, the wording could be better, maybe change it to something like auto stabilise at the start of the turn, similar to the Periapt of Health wording?
3
Is the wording that weird? I mean, it looks fine to me, and it does it’s job. I mean yeah, it’s meant to be useless at 10th level, then it becomes awesome at 18th. What do you suggest I should change the wording to?
2
What is the point of granting a useless feature 8 levels before it has any use? Just grant them bundled at 18.

I mean, I was either trying to fill space or didn’t think it through. Breaths in Demon Slayer can patch up bleeding so I thought it would be fitting to do this. I guess I’ll just remove the bit then and replace it with “stabilise”
Edit: It’s also a bit of a ribbon since you can clot wounds.

My thinking was more that skills or effects of that nature are worded like auto stabilise, rather than casting a spell, but it's your call.
On the broader point - in that case, why give it at all at 10th level and not just reserve it till 18?

Multiple people have told me about how weird it is, so at this point I’m reworking it so it’s similar to the half-orc’s ability.

Fucking weeb

I’ll take that as a compliment

On a more serious note, I think you should put prerequistes on some form. Like ... Lull at 3rd level would be a inconsistent with the anime, and maybe a bit overpowered. Maybe.

I thought about it, then realised the weakness in the anime is the same in dnd. It works on one attack only. This means anything with multi attack can still wreck you. Besides, sanctuary is a 1st level spell.

Is holding breath meant to be a additional amount of rounds or minutes?
2
Rounds. Basically 6 seconds.

It gets very good. Can't wait for season two to be animated, I've read the whole manga and what's in the anime so far is just the start.
