Aesir Marks, be a descendant of the Norse Gods

Here is probably the final version of the Aesir marks, giving you 6 character races options to play with. Everything from Thor to Loki, influencing the abilities of your character. Even the corrupted mark of the first giant.

Fun fact: all the art I used for this is public domain, meaning that you will find it in the northern lights compendium.

Enjoy !

Dropping to 0HP: Alternate rules - Make your combat more gritty and impactful with these new rules -

Bladewolf - Inspired by Sif from Dark Souls, 2 variants on the statblock

Hey everyone,

I created two stat-blocks for blade-wolves, one of CR3, and the Arctic version of CR6.
Inspired by Dark Souls, these beasts are fearsome when they fight in pack and cut through their foes with ease.
How they acquire their weapons ? No one knows for sure, but it is thought that it from the bodies of adventurers that they killed.

What level of adventure should I make next ?

So as some of you may know, I wrote part of a level 19 adventure involving Jormugandr (the giant snake), but took it down because I wasn’t satisfied with it.


so the question is, should I write down more on that level 19, or write an introduction adventure for level 1 -3 ?

2 new subclasses for cleric and rogue and more + Spells

Hello everyone,
So today I'm bringing you your weekly dose of subclasses. The storm heart rogue and the arctic domain cleric. Both heavily inspired by the norse mythology.

StormHeart is good to go, the artic domain might need a bit more refining, but I consider it done as well.

Cheers !

Which Marked race should I do next ?

I'm currently in the process of writing Aesir Marks. Think something like Dragonmarks from Eberron, but more viking, where a god (Aesir) did some business with mortals, and their descendants are blessed with some traits.

So far I have written the Mark of Thor, but which god should I do next ?
