The following subclass let’s you play a PC who uses their smile, quick wits, and the odd dirty trick to find their way in and out of trouble. This archetype is pretty flexible and would allow you to play a fast-talking lovable rogue such as Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean), Han Solo (Star Wars), Mal Reynolds (Firefly), and Rick O’Connell (The […]

In much the same way that XGTE’s War Mage is Abjuration + Evocation, the Mistwalker blends Conjuration, Enchantment, and Illusion. School of the Mistwalker Somewhere in the […]

The gauntlet has been thrown and now it is time to run single combat (or a duel) in your game. Throughout our history and fiction, duels standout as scenes full of tension and action. How can you provide that excitement and avoid creating a long drawn-out combat scene while the rest of the table waits? Here are […]
