One thing I hear over and over again no matter what edition or variation of D&D, there just are not enough magic items for monks. In an effort to fix that, I started writing some. As usual for this blog when showing off something not yet published in a book, it hasn’t been approved byContinue reading “5e: Arm Wrap”

Pathfinder: Playtest at Origins
Yesterday I got my first chance to play the demo of the Pathfinder Playtest, and I couldn’t be more excited to have been apart of it. I played in a 2 hour demo with pregen characters. So I would like to share with you my impressions of the game. Before I begin, I would likeContinue reading “Pathfinder: Playtest at Origins”
5e: Vampiric Young Blue Dragon
Today I would like to share with you a fun mash up of two monsters: dragon and vampire. We are so use to vampires being humanoid that we forget that a vampire can be of any shape. So when creating it in another form, why not marry it a creature that is already scary likeContinue reading “5e: Vampiric Young Blue Dragon”
5e: Scroll of Blinding Ash
So I was leafing through the DMG the other day and I realized that there is a real shortage of awesome common and uncommon magic items. So I decided to start writing some. Magic items, especially low level items, make for an excellent and rewarding experience for players. They can separate an average game fromContinue reading “5e: Scroll of Blinding Ash”
5e: Halfling Warlock Skeleton
I just thought I would take a break from my regular posting of expanding the number of creatures you can summon with the conjure spells in your Fifth Edition game and post a monster I made just for fun. How to make NPCs for 5e is a quesiton I don’t have a good answer forContinue reading “5e: Halfling Warlock Skeleton”

Most artwork for this class depicts someone from a tribal background in some type of leather clothing covering only the bare essentials to be considered “decent,” wielding a sizable weapon. While there is nothing wrong with that image of a barbarian, it is only one interpretation of a barbarian. TheContinue reading “5 Questions Every Barbarian Should Be Able to Answer”
5e: Shadow Elemental
In our quest to increase the number of creatures you can bring to the table with the conjure spells, the most obvious place to expand is the number and type of basic elementals in existence. My interests in the shadow lands means a shadow elemental should be in the game. Naturally that also means there’sContinue reading “5e: Shadow Elemental”
Fort Strange
Officially known as Fort Vanderwalten, many refer to it as Fort Strange because of the numbers of non-humans and less common demi-humans present here. When Kortrill Nightfeather was appointed captain of this frontier fort and military governor over the sparsely-populated region until a noble can be entrusted with this land, she took with her manyContinue reading “Fort Strange”
5e: Great Eagle
How many times have we all said that the answer is the giant eagles? I mean, come on. That has been the answer to how many problems in the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies? Yet the one in the book is only CR 1 and Large size. There’s no way that thing canContinue reading “5e: Great Eagle”
5e: Flame Cat
Like I said a week ago, we went through the MM mentioned which monsters are usable with the various conjure spells and discovered the selection was rather thin. In an effort to correct this we are creating monsters you can conjure with these spells. Last week we shared the thunderscreech today we are sharing withContinue reading “5e: Flame Cat”
