Powerful Build

You are larger than most.

  • If you are a medium creature, you count as a large creature for determining how much you can lift or push, and you have the carrying capacity of a large creature. You also count as a large creature for the sake of grappling. Otherwise, you count as a medium creature.

  • If you are a small creature, you count as a medium creature for determining how much you can lift or push, and you have the carrying capacity of a medium creature. You also count as a medium creature for the sake of grappling. Otherwise, you count as a small creature.


Medium characters have a carrying capacity of their Strength score multiplied by 15. This is the weight (in pounds) that you can carry, which is high enough that most characters don't usually have to worry about it. Large characters can carry twice as much.

Characters can push, drag, or lift a weight in pounds up to twice their carrying capacity (or 30 times your Strength score for medium characters, or 60 times their strength score for large characters).
