Monk: Way of the Sunken Path (Playtest)

Ahoy Strugglers! 

I am very excited to announce our first-ever Dungeon Strugglers subclass: Way of the Sunken Path. This monastic tradition for monks focuses on fortitude, battlefield control, and a mingling of body and spirit with elemental earth and stone. 

Keep in mind: This is playtest material. I'm eager to release it to you now, before we make the subclass art and final adjustments, so that you can help balance it with you...

Fractal Horse Wins! - Custom Dungeon Strugglers Mount

Hey Strugglers!

It looks like the winner of the poll is the Fractal Horse! Thank you for voting!

Scoundrel's Rapier

Scoundrel’s Rapier
Weapon (rapier), uncommon (requires attunement)

The balance of this blade is impeccable. When a creature makes an attack against you with disadvantage, the next attack you make with this sword against that creature has advantage.

This sword is most artfully wielded in the hand of a cunning scoundrel, who goads their opponent into a misstep before piercing their soft underbelly.

Ring, common

This ring is shaped from a finger bone. The creature that donated their bone to craft this magic ring always knows the direction of the ring while it is on the same plane of existence.
