Hello all! After a lot of work, I'm releasing the winner of the last Patron Poll, and an expansion to the first original class I created for 5e, the Shaman: Expanded!
If you’d like to check out my Shaman Class, you can find it here:

Hi all, today I've got a fairly small update for the Shaman Class in preparation for the upcoming release of the Shaman: Expanded. This was the first homebrew class I created, but I think it has evolved from a Warlock/Druid combo class into something unique enough to stand on its own.
As always, I'm interested in any feedback you may have!

Hey all! As per the mandate of the people (patrons) from the last poll, I've been working away on the Shaman: Expanded! I wanted to share a preview of the first Spirituality - the Elementalist!
Channel spirits of all four elements (or maybe just one or two?) to destroy your foes! Any other fans of The Last Airbender out there?
Tomorrow, I'll be posting a fairly small update to the Shaman Class (as I always do before releasing an "Expanded...
2023-02-25 22:57:29 +0000 UTC View PostHello Archmages!
I just finished up another commission for my Alternate Monk Class.
Check out the Epic Level Alternate Monk!
Ever wonder what a level 30 Monk (that wasn't designed by WotC) would look like? Master body and spirit and give spellcasters a really hard time.

Hey all, just finished up another commission for one of my Archmage Patrons - another Occult Order for the Alternate Blood Hunter!
The Order of Ascension is for Blood Hunters who have imbued their blood with Celestial magic. Using this (blasphemous?) power, they can transform into a luminous Radiant Form!

2023-02-21 01:46:33 +0000 UTC View PostHey all, with the release of my Druid Compendium Update, it's time to decide what you'd like to see updated/created next! I've got a few things in mind, but I want to see what ya'll think!
I'm going to limit the options to things that need an update (things that are over 6 months old), but feel free to suggest other things in the comments below!
I'm going to limit ya'll to one vote for this one - winner decided in
Hi all, today I'd like to share an update to my Compendium of Druid Circles. One of my favorite classes in 5e (and the class that drew me to the game in the first place), I've always felt there was some "missed potential" in the official options.
Included here are Ten New & Alternate Druid Circles. Some are "simple", while others look to push the boundaries of what the class is capable of! Got an idea for a subclass concept I missed? Let me know in ...

Hi all, just finished up a pretty big update for my compendium of Druid Circles! Included here are 10 New & Updated Circles: Ancients, Depths, Guardians, Harvest, Scales, Sowers, Swarm, Tempest, and Alternate Land!
Channel the primal power of Dinosaurs, Aberrations, Elder Forests, Death, Dragons, Flora, Vermin, Destruction, and Nature itself!
As always, let me know what you think!

Hey all, hope you are doing well!
I just finished up a commission project for one of my awesome Archmage Tier Patrons - the Epic Level Alternate Blood Hunter! Want to know how to play the Alternate Blood Hunter all the way up to 30th level? Look no further!
Your regularly scheduled laserllama content should be out this Sunday - looking to publish an update to my Compendium of Druid Circles!

Hey all, just got finished a commission for one of my Archmage Patrons for the Alternate Blood Hunter - The Order of Sorcery!
You should definitely not use this to play as a Witcher!
________________________________________________
In all seriousness, it felt weird creating a class based on the Witcher without the ability to use some kind of Witcher magic. This is a one-off project, so enjoy!
Up next in my subclass compendium updates is the Druid! Other than some of the normal formatting, grammar, and balance updates, I've been wondering what new Druid Circles the class could use.
Any ideas?
(Also, I feel like this particular page looks pretty sharp)

Babe, wake up! Alt Blood Hunter update just dropped!
Thanks to everyone who gave feedback on the 1.0 version of my Alternate Blood Hunter. I think I've managed to smooth out a lot of the bumps with the class (mostly fiddly things with the subclasses).
The biggest change has been limiting Crimson Offering to work only with melee weapons. Sadly, I felt it had to go in order to justify the d12 hit die.
Let me know what you think of the update!
Hi all, today I’m excited to share my latest project with you - the Alternate Blood Hunter! Based on the beloved class created by Matthew Mercer, this project is my homage to the masters of monstrous blood magic!
My goal was to bring one of my favorite pieces of pseudo-official content in line with the design philosophy of 5e while making it a little less punishing for players who aren’t as familiar with the risk/reward mechanics in the original version.

It is finished (for now)! The Alternate Blood Hunter Class!
My take on the beloved class created by Matthew Mercer - dark warriors who infect their blood with monstrous power to destroy creatures of the night!
Includes five Occult Orders to represent the sinister powers available to each Blood Hunter: Order of Alchemists, the Pale Moon, Salt & Iron, Undying Thirst, and Witch Knights!
Let me know what you think in the comments! Public release tomorrow!

Hey all! Hoping to have v1.0 of the Alternate Blood Hunter done by tomorrow, but I wanted to give you all a sneak peek of an original Occult Order (subclass) I created.
The Order of Undying Thirst is all about Vampirism! Granting you an increased level of control over your Blood Rites and abilities to play with temporary Hit Points, this should satisfy all of your vampiric needs.
Hey all, I've got another update for my take on an Alternate Blood Hunter Class! Some small changes to the base class and subclasses since the previous update. The biggest addition has been an entire suite of new/updated Blood Rites!
I've also included a little #math at the end for those that are curious about how balanced Vital Sacrifice is. The math uses a Blood Hunter who built their Character using the Standard Array (starting with 16 CON), and maxing their DEX or STR before maxing...
Hi everyone! After almost two years I’m excited to share and update to my Compendium on Divine Domains for the Cleric Class. Included here are eleven original Divine Domains and one Alternate Divine Domain. As always, I’m open to any constructive criticism and feedback you may have!

Hey all! Sorry about the gap in posts, I was trying to sift through my options if the OGL was revoked, but it looks like I won't have to worry about that anymore, so back to your regularly scheduled laserllama content!
Today I've got an update for a compendium that hasn't been updated for almost two years - My compendium of Divine Domains for the Cleric class!
Presented here are updates for my 9 original Divine Domains (Beauty, Blood, Chaos, Hearth, ...
Hey all! I'm currently working on an update to my compendium of Divine Domains for the Cleric Class and I was curious as to which new options you think I should add. Let me know which option you'd like to see in the poll below!
No guarantees that all of these options will make it in, but I'll use this for inspo!

Hey all, I've become a bit enamored with this project over the last few days. Just finished a "quick and dirty" port of the Occult Orders (subclasses) and a few of the Blood Rites.
Let me know what you think!

Hey all, v0.2 of my take on an Alternate Blood Hunter here! I'm still working on the Occult Orders (Subclasses) and Blood Rites so I'm just posting the base class.
The whole thing is a work in progress, but I'm interested to hear you feedback!
(Ignore the half-sublcass on the final page...)

Hey all, been kinda bummed about the upcoming OGL changes so I started to work on the class that won the last survey. Here's the first 10 levels of an "Alpha" Alternate Blood Hunter class. Let me know what you think!

Hey all, been kind of a wild week in D&D news, but I've been chugging along brewing, and I’m happy to post an update for my Psion Class for you all!
It's been over a year since this class has seen an update, and I've learned a lot as a designer since then, so I hope that is reflected in this most recent 2.1.0 version. Not a lot of significant changes here, but a ton of minor ones.
As always, if you have any constructive criticism I'm happy to he...

2023-01-12 02:41:39 +0000 UTC View PostHey all. If you've been following anything D&D-related this past week then you've probably heard about Wizards of the Coast's plan to revoke the OGL (Open Gaming License) and replace it with an updated version that will strangle any 3rd party D&D creators.
The OGL is what allows people like me, and many other wonderful creators, to make 5e content for you to use in your games. I and many other creators agree that the current OGL is what has allowed D&am...

After my latest update to the Alternate Rogue Class, I feel like my current Alternate Classes are in a pretty solid spot. That being said, I'm interested to see which (if any) Alternate Classes you'd like to see next.
No guarantees that the winner of this poll will be the next thing I release (or even the next Alternate Class I do), but I do like to keep a few different projects in development in the background so I'm interested in what ya'll wou...

Hey all, I had a lot of fun mashing up my Exploit System with my Alternate Ranger to create the "Wanderer" Class, so I decided to mess around a bit and see what a "Brawler" Class would look like.
I started out with my Alternate Monk, removed Ki/Techniques, and added in my Exploit System and some features from my Alternate Fighter & Barbarian.
If ya'll are into it I'll see if I can post a full class sometime later this week!

2023-01-05 01:22:59 +0000 UTC View PostHey all! I had some free time today so I made a few Quality of Life updates to the Wanderer. It is still pretty similar to my Alternate Ranger, but I hope you like it!
I've removed the reliance on Wisdom as a secondary stat, so now you can build DEX/INT or STR/WIS Wanderers to your heart's content (or stick with DEX/WIS).
I've also included two more Wild Companions (Cave & Sea) for the Path of the Beast Master and made some small adjustments to all four Companions. 2023-01-03 00:26:34 +0000 UTC View Post
