Inspired by the new 5e Purple Dragon Knight subclass, and the surprising reaction by the 5e community, I was driven to write up some options. Ironically for the 3e community.

5e Skills and Tools (Half Finished)
Some half-finished homebrew bringing some more mechanics to the 5e (not not-6e) skills system.
Review of City Guard Chronicles: The Case of the Misguided Lover
In your average game of D&D, most town or city guards are relegated to a minor NPC role, often serving as occasional obstacles or nuisances for the players. Afterall, most TTRPGs tend to lean heavily toward or embrace lawlessness. Sure, there are many investigative games out there, but they too will often have players createContinue reading “Review of City Guard Chronicles: The Case of the Misguided Lover”
A Different Aasimar: 5e Race
5e Tieflings get all the love, which is a shame, since Aasimar have some serious potential. The Tiefling write ups are solid power levels, with neat abilities, and cool fluff. Aasimar, their counterpart, are cool fluff, but their abilities are mechanically weak. I’ve seen many a 5e Aasimar player use their Revelation ability, only toContinue reading “A Different Aasimar: 5e Race”
Mage Hunter: 3.5 Class
So, as I’m looking through content and formatting it for post, it’s becoming clear I’ve got a problem. Turns out, D&D has not ever really built a satisfying anti-mage and thats apparently my kick right now. What with the rogue subclass and the full 5e class I just posted. Looking back, apparently, I’ve been huntingContinue reading “Mage Hunter: 3.5 Class”
Gun Mage: 3.5 Class
This is sure to get folks heated. A firearms class! based off the warlock! Two wildely divisive choices for RPGs back in the 3e era, and still to this day. This class was written because I love both of them, and I really wanted to play a magic cowboy. Only been used once or twice,Continue reading “Gun Mage: 3.5 Class”
Alderdoodle Accessories: Review
@Alderdoodle sent us some of their beautiful cards for RPGs for review. Highly recommended, and added a bunch more to my personal wishlist for sure.
Spellthief: 5e Class
5e doesn’t really have a fun counter mage. You can play a wizard with counterspell and silvery barbs sure, but then you’re a wizard who shuts down other wizards. I’m looking for the mundane characters who wrestle control of spells in effect or prevent their casting to begin with. Not out of some desire toContinue reading “Spellthief: 5e Class”
Shifter: 3.5 Class
I always liked the concept of the guy who can grow claws and take on animal forms fun, but for whatever reason WoTC gave us really weak versions (Eberron’s shifters), or insisted we can’t do it until 5-6th level (Druids, wildshape rangers, various prestige classes). This was my attempt to get that online at levelContinue reading “Shifter: 3.5 Class”
A Different Elf: Races Revised
Elves are the classic race choice in fantasy RPGs. Everyone has an elf, and every game needs an elf. What is an elf? Usually magic, probably all around better than you, always has pointy ears, that sort of thing. In a bit of meta commentary though, now-a-days, what makes elves stand out is the plethoraContinue reading “A Different Elf: Races Revised”
