Bloodsap Treant - Remnants of the War

Hello good hunter,

Today, a new creature born from the horrors of the Trench War: the Bloodsap Treant.

These crimson-wooded monstrosities emerged in the aftermath of the Great War, spawned from trees that absorbed the blood and poison gas that saturated battlefields. Rather than restoring nature, Bloodsap Treants promote the growth of corrupted forests, spreading a tainted version of life across once-ravaged lands.

The Bloodsap Treant is for campaign...

Spells of the Trench War - The Beginning of a WW1 inspired compendium

Hello good hunter,

Today I'm excited to share with you the beginning of a new Compendium inspired by the grim realities of World War I trench warfare, with an added magical flair.

First I kicked it off with the Chemical Bloodline Sorcerer, and now it's time to add spell, monsters and more.

Here are the first four new spells:

• Miasma of Death (1st-level conjuration): Conjure a toxic cloud reminiscent of WWI chemica...

Sorcerer - Corrosive Bloodline

Get ready to embrace the darker side of magic with the Corrosive Bloodline Sorcerer!

This potent archetype brings a unique flavor to the sorcerer class, allowing players to harness the forces of decay, toxins, and chemical warfare.

Democracy Domain: A Cleric Fighting For the Will of the People [Wrath of Olympus]

Hello good hunter,

This subclass is all about collective decision-making and the strength that comes from unity. It was fitting for the compendium as the greek’s pioneered the idea of democracy.

The People's Mandate ability, for instance, literally lets your party members vote on what they need most in th...

The Bladespinner: Adding Blades to a Spider [Wrath of Olympus]

Hello good hunter,

This nasty piece of work is what you'd get if you crossed a giant spider with a blender.

The lore behind this monster is pretty “cool" too. And by cool I mean that I was just thinking "You know what would make giant spiders even worse? Sword legs!".

Turns out it actually makes them less scary, though more deadly. It has a combination of high mobility, area control with webs, and constant damage output.

I made two versions, ...

Race: Cactusfolk

Hello good hunter,

These plant-based humanoids are perfect for desert-themed campaigns or for players who want to try something completely different. 

Honestly I just saw the new sets from MtG and it inspired me to make a race out of it because it sounded fun, and the result was actually fairly exciting to play with.

Enjoy!

Feats of Olympus

Hello good hunter!

I'm excited to share two new feats with you:

• Wastenot

  This feat is designed for spellcasters who hate to see their magic go to waste. When a creature succeeds on a saving throw against your spell and it has no effect, you can channel that residual energy into your next successful spell attack. It deals bonus force damage that scales with the spell slot level of the failed spell.

  Now your magic always packs a punch, even ...
