A lot of this blog uses Pexels free art, and a lot of my published stuff uses public domain art or the D&D BeyondContinue reading “Chamomile Has Illustrations”

Tiered Subclass: Variant
Spawned from another 5e gripe session, the Tiered Subclass Variant came about as an attempt to solve a few 5e complaints I have. Primarily, 5e characters don’t get a lot of choices when they level up, especially late games. Secondarily, some subclasses are effective but boring. Picking other options feels bad from an optimization standpoint,Continue reading “Tiered Subclass: Variant”
Devil’s Advocate: Review
Devils have long been a favorite fantasy monster of mine, and especially the dealmaker archtype. Most fantasy games usually spend some lip service towards the idea that one could make a deal with the devil, but there’s rarely mechanical rules with impact for doing so. Most often, it’s handled offscreen or by DM fiat. IContinue reading “Devil’s Advocate: Review”

Redcoat Smasher and the Crown of Flames
Our last session with the Vampire Lord ended on a cliffhanger. With Redcoat and Opal relaxing after their quest in the inn, late at night, with a sudden appearance of a face in the fireplace. A young woman says “Help me Redcoat, you’re my only hope”. The Fire Princess reached out to Redcoat after hearingContinue reading “Redcoat Smasher and the Crown of Flames”
Kessler’s Guide to Dungeons: Review
Kessler’s Guide to Dungeons is the eighth of Chamomile’s guides to everything. In a change of pace, this book is devoted to a single topic. Dungeons. It’s a big topic in D&D (one of the D’s even) and so it makes sense that there’s a lot to say here. Even more, considering there is bothContinue reading “Kessler’s Guide to Dungeons: Review”
