Race: Halfling Subraces

Adds a few subraces for halflings.

• Feral Fae - jungle-dwelling people that are just a bit wild
• Goblin Kin Fae - half goblin, half fae
• Mouseblood Fae - quiet, and often unnoticed
• Quicksilver Fae - they change their appearance and even apparent gender constantly with a little bit of magic
• Wanderfolk Fae - not everyone can be satisfied staying in one place for long

Update 2022-06-29:  Updating some wording, added weapon proficienci...

Arcane Tradition: Arcane Animation

This type of wizard can magically animate objects to be helpful, and at higher levels, they can create a golem.

Updated January 2021.

Arcane Tradition: Arcane Archery

It's an old idea, sir, but it checks out.

My take on an old 3rd edition prestige class. Wizards that use magic arrows.

Updated January 2021: Removed set magic arrow effects and added the ability to cast spells into/through ammunition. Does anyone want a fireball arrow or banishment bolt?

Arcane Tradition: School of the Sword

Get into the thick of things, and show those fighters what a battle mage can do.

Updated March 2022.

Arcane Tradition: Spirit Keeping

Have you ever wanted more than one familiar? This type of wizard knows how to do that.

Updated January 2021.

Arcane Tradition: Tomb Raiding

Instead of relying on hiring rogues or others to get lost treasures and lore, these wizards use their own skills and luck to explore places the living should not be going (and taking things from).

Inspired by Laura Croft and Indiana Jones.

Updated January 2021.

Arcane Tradition: Witchcraft

Rather than "curses and potions", this type of witchcraft is old (nature-based) magic from before formal wizard education was a thing. It's basically a mix of druid and wizardry.

Updated January 2021.

Amulet of Resilient Life

A simple wooden amulet that grants a boost to your physical well-being.

Otherworldly Patron: The Hive

Some powerful hive minds want to bring others into their collectives. This warlock subclass is based on the sharing of thoughts and knowledge.

It is also intended as a replacement for the Great Old One patron for worlds, like my world of Aenea, that do not have any connection to Cthulu-based spaces or entities.

Updated January 2021 to bring in line with the 5e SRD/OGL.

Otherworldly Patron: The Silver Cloak

The silver cloak is a mysterious patron that gives you power to aid in fighting monsters of the night.

It's a subclass based on the name of a warlock pact. In this case, my version of Pact of the Cloak.

Updated January 2021 to work with the SRD and clean things up a bit.

Otherworldly Patron: The Witch Blade

This is a replacement for when people want a magic-weapon-warlock without the Shadowfell and built-in darkness that comes with the Hexblade.

This is one of my warlock subclasses based on the name of a warlock pact boon.

Updated January 2021 with some replaced features and spells,  and some clarified text.

Scarab of Hope

This fancy pin can bring hope to those cursed by fate (or jealous spellcasters).

Roguish Archetype: Acrobat

Jumping, tumbling, balancing, and staff work are the hallmarks of a classic acrobat.

Updated January 2021 with some minor wording changes.

Roguish Archetype: Magician

This is intended as a replacement for the trickster rogue in the base game, for those that would prefer a Charisma-based showman rogue.

Updated January 2021 with some minor wording changes.

Roguish Archetype: Shadow Archer

Become a specialized hunter that climbs to high places and shoots bows and crossbows at people below.

Updated January 2021 with some minor wording changes.

Roguish Archetype: Unseen

Be so forgettable that the guards do not even remember you being there.

Updated January 2021 with some minor wording changes.

Spell: Conjure Ammunition

There are times when you just need an arrow.

Use your connection to the Ethereal Plane to hunt down your targets.

Updated February 2021 with some minor wording changes.

Armor of the Long Road

Adventuring often means travel, and this armor can help you on your way.

Squire Reginald

Some magical items are intelligent and have a personality of their own.

Squire Reginald is a helpful magic dagger with a dream.

Arcane Tradition: Spell Thievery

Imagine knowing so much about the base working of spells that you can steal some, or even all, of the magic when someone else casts a spell.

Updated January 2021.

Arcane Tradition: School of Thievery

Who says a wizard can't be a master criminal?

Updated January 2021.

Otherworldly Patron: The Chains of Creation

A warlock patron based off the name of the Pact of the Chain, this subclass lets you use a chain as a weapon, plus you can impede and bind things while holding stuff together.

Updated January 2021 to clarify some text, and make some changes (such as changing out non-SRD spells).

Updated July 2023 to include adjustments to the Chained Combat feature that are in the upcoming book.

Roguish Archetype: Peek

You are the snoopiest of snoops, the nosiest of neighbors, the sneakiest of spies.

Updated January 2021 with some minor wording chagnes.

Hornet's Sting

A little sting here, a little sting there...and then you have one that really hurts.

Intimidating Blade

"That ain't a knife. THIS is a knife."

Jolt

Put a little spark in your battles with this copper dagger.
