Medic (Alt)

Lounger

You have a number of additional hit dice equal to your proficiency bonus. This does not alter your maximum hit points.

Arcane Blocker

You can cast Counterspell at 3rd-level without expending a spell slot. Once you cast it, you must finish a long rest before you can cast it again using this feat. The spell's spellcasting ability is Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma when you cast it with this feat (choose when you gain the feat).

Overwatch

As a bonus action you can mark a number of creatures, that you can see, up to your proficiency bonus. If you see any of these creatures move 5 feet or more before the start of your next turn, you can immediately take a single attack against them with a ranged weapon you are holding.

Multitasker

You can concentrate on two spells or features that require concentration simultaneously. If you try to concentrate on a third, you must drop one of the current ones. If your concentration is broken, such as by damage, all concentrated spells or features are dropped.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Impersonator

You devleop an alternate persona which can take on as an action. When you take this feat, you determine the specifics of your alternate persona, including its name, appearance, voice, and sex. You can also adjust your height and weight, but not so much that your size changes. You can make yourself appear as a member of another race, though none of your game statistics change. You can't duplicate the appearance of a creature you've never seen, and you must adopt a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs that you have. Your clothing and equipment aren't changed by this trait. You stay in the new persona until you use an action to revert to your true form or until you are reduced to 0 hit points.

If your persona is of a different race, you can choose to be treated as a member of that race when taking further feats or when attunting to and using magic items. This does not grant you racial traits that you do not have. For example, taking the Dragon Fear feat does not grant you a dragonborn's Breath Weapon trait.

You may take this feat multiple times, creating a new, different persona for each time.

Impersonator (ALT)

...You gain the following benefits.

• Increase a single ability score of your choice by 1, to a maximum of 20.

• You ignore all class and race requirements on taking further feats or attuning to and using magic items.

Versatile Caster

...You gain the following benefits.

• Increase your Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma score by 1, to a maximum of 20.

• When you cast a spell that would normally use your Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma as its spellcasting ability, you may instead use the ability increased by this feat.

How broken would this actually be? It would potentially allow more multi-classing by reducing MAD (though the 13+ requirement is still there and other features may use other ability)Maybe any spell, not just the main three abilities?Or require choosing a class and only changing the ability for that class (eg. choose warlock, you can now choose which ability to use in place of cha)

Arcane Ship Master

You learn the Spectral Crew spell and can cast it as a ritual. You can also cast the spell using any spell slots you have.

When you cast the spell, you can double the number of spectral crew you summon. You also have advantage on saving throws to maintain concentration on this spell.

Wild Magic Initiate

You learn 3 1st-level spells of your choice from any spell list. You can cast each of the chosen spells without a spell slot, and you must finish a long rest before you can cast it in this way again. Your spellcasting ability for this feat's spells is Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma (choose when you select this feat).

When you cast one of these spells, you must roll on the Wild Magic Surge table, from the sorcerer class, to create a random magical effect. A Wild Magic Surge can happen once per turn.

If a Wild Magic effect is a spell, it's too wild to be affected by Metamagic. If it normally requires concentration, it doesn't require concentration in this case; the spell lasts for its full duration.

Additionally, when you cast the spell, your spiritual weapon can be used to shield yourself and your allies. When a creature you can see within 5ft of your spiritual weapon is targeted by an attack, you can use your reaction to grant them a +2 bonus to their armor class until the end of the current turn. until start of your next turn instead?
Basically a free shield of faith for a turn

Something this vague is bound to be breakable.
