Awesome. I especially like the awakened cat idea. It would be nice if there was more support for thrown weapon builds, because a Dwarven ranger hucking throwing axes sounds like awesome RP. The Quick Toss maneuver or the Returning Weapon Artificer infusion could make it work I suppose. I've always hoped a Dwarven Thrower would fall into my hands one day.

The cat idea came from this post, and I typed up an expanded version there.

As far as the Dwarven STRanger goes, yeah it’s a bit rough that Core5e doesn’t have any major support for mundane returning weapons. Although in the main campaign I’m playing in, my DM is very generous and allows me to use the Spheres of Power/Might 3pp, which does have options for that. And really just expanded options for Martials across the board. But the initial version of this guy had him primarily wielding a Greataxe and a Battleaxe, switching to throwing axes if he needed the range.
