In 3rd edition, there were rules for magical items that leveled up as characters gained levels. While I've been adapting the Appendix for the old Expedition to the Demon Web pits module from 3.5, there were a few items of legacy in there. In order to successfully port them over to 5th edition, I had to recreate all of the Weapons of Legacy rules.
So here they are! Enjoy.
2019-04-19 02:49:54 +0000 UTC View PostThe Book of Flesh and Mirrors is bound in mirror mephit hide, a substance that is velvety but cold to the touch. The surface is also reflective, though the reflected images look slightly blurry, as if seen in a lightly fogged mirror.
At the center of the front cover and at each corner are a few tiny rubies set in a pattern resembling an eye (eighteen total, worth 100 gp each). The ninety-nine interior pages are vellum sheets inked in black, blue, brown, and red with a steady...

See you then.
2019-04-18 01:22:30 +0000 UTC View PostIf you just saw my last post, you should know by now I'm working on a quickie ebook called Demons. Well, quickie as in it'll be like 20 pages or so.

I enjoyed writing that quick little ebook (well, it was about 10k words, but I digress) on Formians.
The next official "premium" book will be all about demons and fighting them. The above prestige class is the first bit. I hope to have it finished by next week.
This will be premium, therefore, it'll only appear for tiers silver+.

Hey all! Sorry for the delay. I cooked this up yesterday while doing a little research on this cool, old threat from back-in-the-day. If I'm not mistaken, these days, PFRPG owns the rights to these buggers, hence their absence from Fifth Edition.
Regardless, here's a 9-page document detailing them in full in the same style that Volo's does.
Enjoy!
2019-04-16 21:46:14 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
Sorry for the delay on the ebook. Tracy got into a car accident this morning (she's fine, but the car's not) so that's been eating up a lot of my day.
Anyways, I should be able to finish up this pdf tonight.
Thanks!
2019-04-16 19:22:37 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
Quick update. I've got a premium PDF coming out tomorrow. I'd put it out tonight, but homebrewery is frustrating the hell out of me and I'm about to throw my computer out the window haha!
Anyways, it's a 9-page ebook in the style of Volo's with heavy details on a classic D&D monster.
Keep an eye out!
2019-04-16 04:16:31 +0000 UTC View PostI've had an idea stewing in my head for a bit on how to continue to add value to the Patreon. One thing I'd really like to do is hold weekly sessions set in either my own campaign world or at least in a series of adventures that are interconnected.
This would be something only for Gold or Platinum tiers and would probably work out where Gold gets 1 session per month and Platinum gets 2, probably on a day like Monday or so.
There would be some pretty strict rules (things I learned ...
2019-04-15 17:45:54 +0000 UTC View PostTomorrow afternoon, I plan on cooking up a few more requests. I have two on deck right now, but could probably fit in a few more. As usual, it's first come-first served and it's done in tier order (gold first, then electrum, etc). If you've already had a request done within the last 5 days or so, I might skip yours to reach those who haven't gotten one yet.
Requests on deck:
1) Dragon Knight Levels 1 - 5
2) Temptress Levels 1 - 10 (Patreon Exclusive) 2019-04-13 20:36:10 +0000 UTC View Post
Been a little behind, but here's a Patreon-exclusive PDF I cooked up today for Jungle Weather. For whatever reason, Tomb of Annihilation barely touches on weather. Its addressed in a simple, 500-word block.
Using old rules from Dragon #137, plus those found in the Fifth Edition DMG, I've created these extended Jungle Weather rules.
Enjoy!
2019-04-13 20:27:33 +0000 UTC View PostUnfortunately, Jorrian's player, John, won't be able to continue in the Wednesday Tomb of Annihilation campaign. Which means I need to figure out some sort of fate for him.
But what? I decided I'd leave it all to you to decide.

This is a big one that took a while today. I'm going to work on it a bit more (add in extra levels, etc.) and get some peer review, but after that, I'll be putting it into a PDF.
Enjoy! :)

Five brave souls will go toe-to-toe with the most dangerous Fifth Edition module of them all. And if that's not enough, the campaign will include the following optional rules:
Bulbasaur! Venusaur!
Yes, I realize that there is an evolution between the two. But I only had so much room on the document. Therefore, I skipped straight to venusaur.
Either way, enjoy! ;)
2019-04-09 21:34:52 +0000 UTC View PostMy request kick continues with the following:
... a magic weapon that would be a gift from a deity of a monsters for my tiefling hexblade. Maybe its a short or long sword that can be split into two swords, also when it makes contact with an enemy and deals damage it forces some sort of insanity onto them for a round.
Sounds pretty straight forward!

This is an idea I'm toying around with to beef up Arcane Archers considerably. It uses the warlock's structure as a base.
Let me know what you think down in the comments.
2019-04-09 19:25:41 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
I've got three requests that I already know about:
1) Archer class from Fate/stay night
2) Hexblade weapon
3) Bulbasaur (CR 2 or lower for Wild Shape)
I plan on making three more. First three that reply here get whatever they want (except for Platinum which already gets monthly requests). Also, if I've made a request for you recently, I might skip.
Just a few rules:
Hey all! Naturally, with the Kickstarter going on, I've been focused in that area. Those of you at higher levels probably already know you'll be receiving copies of the book.
The book on magic is due out soon, but this is a punchy month for me. So I might start dishing out daily PDFs related to the topic, probably drawn from requests.
Just a heads up, too, I'm going to Colombia at the end of the month, so that'll cut into some of my productivity as well.
Anyways, I plan on p...
2019-04-08 19:36:19 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks! Quick status update. As per the poll, I've been quietly working through Arcane and hope to be done this week. Obviously the Kickstarter's been keeping me busy and I'll need to work on some of that, too.
Thanks for the suggestions on content so far. They've been fun to make. And I'll likely run down through some more, probably doing monsters next.
Anyways, I'll keep you all posted on its progress either way.

I'm going to be a little quiet this week while I'm working on the Premium book (I'd like to have it wrapped up by Friday). Question, though: would you like to see each piece as I finish it, or would you prefer to just see it all when it's done?
AKA: spoilers or no spoilers?

In preparation for BroadSword Magazine #1's "Harry Potter'esque" adventure, Evadimus' School for Gifted Spellcasters, I've created some zero-level rules for wizards. Chances are I'll create a few more for the other classes since it's pretty easy to put together now that I have the basic concept down.
I'll probably wrap those up in a nifty little PDF, too, once I've got a few more out of the way.
Let me know what you think.

Here comes one of my requests. Can't wrap this up in a PDF (it's IP protected), but at the very least I can keep the stats up on my blog.
