(POLL) VOTE FOR THE JAN-MARCH 5E THEME
Hey all! It's amazing and difficult to comprehend that we're entering year 5 at Gamingbrew! Thanks to your continued support, we're expanding our offerings here on Patreon and beyond. While I'll have more to share in the new year, one big change is to our 5E theme vote.
After a quick update, we'll get into theme voting below!
5E Themes in 2024
The 5E theme will change from lasting 1 month to every 3 months (Jan-March, April-June, etc.) After finishing a 3-month theme, the plan is to compile everything released under the theme into a Digital Book (Tome reward for Platinum), offer a print-on-demand option in softcover and hardcover, and a special Virtual Tabletop token border!
Additional 5E Content
To support the 3-month length, and if your chosen theme doesn't win the vote, we'll continue aggressively mixing in content outside the theme. Because the additional content is not bound to a theme, we're letting creativity run wild and will constantly check the suggestion box on Discord for new ideas.
Here's a quick look at some content in the pipeline not tied to 5E themes.
Class: Bushi
Prestige Class: Ashen Fang
Prestige Class: Mesmer
Race: Auric, Lunar Moths
Lots of subclasses!
I'm incredibly excited to have the opportunity to dive deeper into themes and to give the theme the time it deserves for both content creation and team collaboration. Artists need time to art!

5E THEME CHOICES
1. DEEP SEA DWARVES
Deep within the Crestfallen mountains, the Dwarves of Thommar have discovered a subterranean ocean containing natural resources not found anywhere else on Erenel. After inventing new technology to traverse the underground ocean, the Deep Sea Dwarves began underwater drilling to harvest this new material. Unfortunately, in opening this dark recess, the Dwarves have entered the lair of Sib'imaskar, the Kraken Queen and her drowned empire.
Vote for the Deep Sea Dwarves to explore nautical content and dwarven inventions.
Sample content
Prestige Class: Odyssey Mech
Race: Osmoid. Amorphous creatures made almost entirely of a translucent jelly that lives inside a mechanical suit.
Dwarven Smithing Ruleset. Enhance your equipment with Dwarven skills.
Subclasses, creatures, feats, magic items and spells
VTT Token Border: Deep Sea

2. DRAGON FIRE
The labyrinth city of Roh'kor looms larger than the rest. Home to the Minotaur Queen, Nuria Zaneta, Roh'kor is a city built from the ashes of dragon fire. Like their Queen, the people of Roh'kor hold an ancestral grudge against those who refused aid when the Ancient Wyrm, Rynngrailar, attacked and left their city to burn.
Vote for the Dragon's Hoard to explore all things dragons.
Sample content
Class: Dragon Tamer
Prestige Class: Dragon Soul

3. LIGHT'S END
A commonly shared sentiment is the hardest step to take is the first. This is not true when venturing into the depths of the Below. Each step into the wretched hellscape is more difficult than the last. Each step deeper into the Layers of Sin, tear away at any hope you will return to the light above.
Vote for Light's End to explore devils, demons, and the six Layers of Sin.
Sample content
Class: Devil Caller
Prestige Class: Reaper
Race: Everborn. A creature that bears two souls, two personalities, and two character sheets.
Subclasses, creatures, feats, magic items and spells
VTT Token Border: Light's End
