Welcome to the first in a series of ranger subclasses! There will be three new ranger subclasses available in the upcoming Ranger's Guide compendium, as well as updated reprints of three previously released rangers. I'm actually really excited for how they turned out. As always I spend hours designi

I really love rangers, and it's not a secret. I think I had "Ranger's Guide" as one of the old theme options, simply because I wanted to see how far I could take the ranger idea. Regardless - I started out with a Fighter because I wanted to try something different, but the location-specific theme of

The monk, adorned with bells hanging from his wrist and ankles, leaps fearlessly into the fray. He deftly strikes the bandit with his elbow, ringing with every strike. With every crash of the bell, the bandit is pushed by a mystical force, harder, until he loses his footing and falls... ----- It was

The ringsmith rushes forward with fury, forging a path ahead through wave after wave of thrashing bulettes. "Come forward, my friends!" the fearless artificer shouts. "The strength of our bond is stronger than their claws. We will forge ahead." ----- The Ringsmith is the first obvious choice for a s

This Artificer is very sci-fi and alien (as opposed to focusing on the mystical nature of the cosmos), but I really wanted to make this. This went through a lot of revisions, from Nanite Die sizes to an actual cloud of nanites. In the end, it pulled elements from the Spore Druid, and is a swarm of n

"There is a higher power than all of us - something higher than kings, demons, or gods. There is an infinity that resides above all, an eternal concept that persists after all of us are gone. The infinite void of the cosmos envelopes us in its warm embrace, and it is our sacred duty to preserve and

The ranger clambers into the bar, laser pistol at her side. This seedy establishment was founded in the outer reaches of the Worlds, a place of rough elements and criminal activity. A quick scan showed all patrons were locals except one - a mousey-looking beer-sipper carrying a foreign weapon. The r

The Gods and the Goddesses of the Hunt charge divine orders to their followers. There is much in a Hunt - a sense of peril, danger, entertainment, justice, or even revenge. The Hunt encompasses worshipers from all walks of life, united only by a single goal. ----- I initially planned on releasing th

The figure surges through the battlefield, lunging with impossible speed to land a strike from afar. They move faster than the eye can see, and they seem to almost teleport through combat. Within seconds, the fight was over. ----- Before we start: this has nothing to do with the movie! Sorry if you

You must be lucky to bear witness to a Power Word spell, for only those with immense arcane talent can wield it. But on rare occasions, a group of bards can speak in perfect harmony to produce an effect greater than the individual: the Power Chord. ----- These are spells that all started from a stup

A bear wielding a massive set of antlers stalks through the woods, creating the legends that surround the sleepy town of Gareth's Hollow. Many say it's a protective spirit that defends the town, but some knows the druid just a little better. ----- Here's another subclass found in the Santa Compendiu

The northern guardian is a bastion of the arctic reaches. As a master of the frigid cold, these rangers command the magic of the north. ----- I really liked making this subclass a lot. The ranger gets a lot of hate for its starting kit and relative lack of combat ability, but I've always loved the e

Dashing through the snow, In a one-horse open slay, O'er the fields we go, Santa All The Way. ----- My first finished 22-page compendium is here! Each subclass at the very least brings something new to D&D, whether it is a mechanic or roleplay. Click the Attachments below to download the pdf! I'm co

The paladin stands amidst the snowdrift, eyes checking a small list in his hands. Was this kid good this year? Or will the child receive a lump of coal this year? ----- This one's a fun subclass for the paladin. Despite the goofiness of making a bunch of Santa-themed ones this winter, I realize it's

How does Santa get into all those chimneys without burning himself? It's easy - he just rages. ----- This subclass kit focuses primarily on using the Rage smoke, allowing this barbarian to improve its attack or potentially Hide as an exploration feature. The Rage smoke doesn't move on its own, so it

The wizard sits in their dark basement, illuminated only by a single orb from which they prepare their arcane code. One more execution of arcane virus and they are in the government mainframe. The wizard puts on its cool sunglasses and hits Enter. The orb goes dark. The trojan horse has done its job

This is a preview of my next full book - Scadrial for 5e. Now your Mistborn dreams can finally come true! Blast coins at Inquisitors. Grow strong like koloss. Influence people's minds. Eat metal. This 100+ page book still needs to be formatted, but the subclasses, rules, monsters, items, and more ar

"It's hard to recall what happened in the correct order. I see it all at once. We work on an arcane contraption that can mine the leylines. I forget my wand. I go to pick it up but the gates have already closed. We are blasted with a leyline fracture. My partner disintegrates. I watch my skin peel.

Sometimes you don't find a patron. Sometimes the patron finds you. Sometimes, your patron is a great green owl that really wants you to finish your lessons., and if you don't listen to it, it may kidnap your family until you learn some new verbs. ----- This is one of the first subclass I made for a

We've all seen stories about players casting "Cone of Cod," "Cause Bear," or "Hideous Daughter." If you're a punny person, why not take your one-liner game up to the next level? This bard subclass lets you mess with words to your heart's content! ----- This is the first homebrew subclass I designed.

Though oozes may be spineless, many of them can be extremely dangerous, especially the Elder Oblex. For the descendants of slimes (ew?), their bodies are forever altered. Why be a dragon when you can be a gross slimy mess? ----- This is one of the first subclasses I designed! I wanted to make a home

Sometimes your Warlock needs help that an alien god cannot provide. For them, there's Patreon, where ordinary citizens can pledge their support! ----- First post to Patreon to give all visitors an idea of the type of things I make. Hope you have fun playing this warlock. I create all this content fo
