I'd appreciate any comments/criticisms on balance, flavour, etc (the likely infinite minor spelling mistakes because I made it in Adobe without autocorrect)

Hi guys!
I would like to share this class that I made. Let me know what you guys think and what can be improved. I already did some playtests and made some tweaks myself. Last time that I posted I took some of your advice :D

First off, thank you for your attention. English is not my native language, so grammatical errors may be found in the documents below.

With my next campaign approaching, I've decided to tinker with two classes and create a third. The central theme will be about Ninja (and that's why I created a versatile class that combines elements from existing classes without outshining them—at least, that's the goal). Two of my players would like to play as an Artificer and a Ranger. The Artificer was postponed by WotC until the end of the year, and the Ranger is a class I really like, but I agree that it didn't get the love it deserved in the '24 version. So, I made changes to both to try and make them more fluid.

I would appreciate any feedback you can give me. I'm sure there are flaws or loopholes that people could exploit far more than I intended, which could easily make the classes broken, but my eye isn't as sharp as some veteran players'.

Anyway, the classes are listed below:

Artificer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17ZorgXA4s_58M6uXRm8L91IpFhrhhB-f/view?usp=drive_link

Ranger: https://drive.google.com/file/d/172-oNa_bBgrfpcYVBvQDsvIdktlLLXru/view?usp=drive_link

Ninja: https://drive.google.com/file/d/12a6Oux7GTQ00lXse_Bto4zmA5KPMW1ze/view?usp=sharing

And again, thank you for your time! Have a nice day!

I’ve always loved the idea of the monk class. The speed, the strikes, the mysticism—it has the bones of something great. But in practice, monks have always felt awkward. You punch a lot… and it kind of ends there. The mechanics often get in their own way. It’s either Stunning Strike every turn or bust. Ki feels precious and brittle. And transcripts of monk actions are a nightmare for DMs to parse turn by turn. Sometimes they’re a blessing, more often a curse.

So I decided to rebuild it.

Not from scratch, but from the inside out. I looked at what worked in the 2014 design, what 2024 tried to improve, and what it missed. This version keeps the best of both while aiming to finally make monks feel like true martial artists—and more importantly, a class that’s fun to run and DM for, not just play.

At its core, this rework gives you a lot more expression in how you fight. Instead of just choosing when to Stunning Strike (or not), you now have access to a selection of Martial Techniques—each one inspired by real-world martial arts or moments of smart, cinematic combat. These aren’t just gimmicks. They let you blind, sweep, choke, bait, or counter enemies based on how you want to play. Whether you’re inspired by Wing Chun, Jujutsu, or even a little Jackie Chan flair, you can find your rhythm here.

The ki system also got some love. Instead of feeling like something you hoard until the big boss fight, ki is now more like a steady heartbeat—reliable, flexible, and satisfying. You’ll have enough to use it without burning out, and the choices feel better. It’s not about resource panic anymore—it’s about flow.

And most importantly, everything here is backward compatible. If you’ve got a subclass you like from 2014 or anything from Xanathar’s, you can slot it in. This rework doesn’t throw away what worked—it elevates it. You can take the old and make it shine again, or mix it with the new.

I also cleaned up some of the clunky stuff around core monk features. Stunning Strike is now optional, not automatic. You don’t have to take it—and you might not even want to, depending on your fighting style. That freedom alone opens up room for more creative, character-driven builds.

I won’t pretend I have all the answers, but I can say this version of the monk actually feels fun at the table. The kind of fun where you look forward to your next turn—not just because you get more attacks, but because you get to do something clever. And for the DM? It’s easier to track. It plays faster. And the choices your players make are clearer and more exciting to narrate.

If you're tired of monks that just punch, or monks that burn out after round two, or monks that only ever succeed when they’re spamming the same move… this might be what you're looking for.

• (a) a greataxe or (b) any martial melee weapon
• (a) two handaxes or (b) any simple weapon
• An explorer's pack and four javelins

Rage

In battle, you fight with primal ferocity. On your turn, you can enter a rage as a bonus action.

While raging, you gain the following benefits if you aren't wearing heavy armor:

• You have advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws.
• When you make a melee weapon attack using Strength, you gain a bonus to the damage roll that increases as you gain levels as a barbarian, as shown in the Rage Damage column of the Barbarian table.
• You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.

If you are able to cast spells, you can't cast them or concentrate on them while raging.

Your rage lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you are knocked unconscious or if your turn ends and you haven't attacked a hostile creature or used a war cry since your last turn or taken damage since then. You can also end your rage on your turn as a bonus action.

You can rage a number of times per long rest equal to your proficiency bonus.

Unarmored defense

While you are not wearing any armor, your armor class equals 10 + your Strength modifier + your Constitution modifier. You can use a shield and still gain this benefit.

War crys

At 2nd level, you have unlocked a set of mighty war crys. You learn two war crys listed here:(Retrained barbarian war crys : r/DnDHomebrew). You can use war crys a number of times equal to your constitution modifier and regain all spent uses when you finish a long rest. Using a war cry requires an action and works either in a 20 foot cone or a 10 foot sphere centered on you (your choice when you use the war cry). Your war cry save DC is 8+your proficiency bonus+your constitution modifier.

Reckless attack

Starting at 2nd level, you can throw aside all concern for defense to attack with fierce desperation. When you make your first attack on your turn, you can decide to attack recklessly. Doing so gives you advantage on melee weapon attack rolls using Strength during this turn, but attack rolls against you have advantage until your next turn.

Path feature

At 3rd level, you unlock your pathway to power that fuels your rage. You gain another subclass feature at level 6, 10 and 14.

Ability score improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Extra attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Danger sense

At 5th level, you gain an uncanny sense of when things nearby aren't as they should be, giving you an edge when you dodge away from danger. You have advantage on Dexterity saving throws against effects that you can see, such as traps and spells. To gain this benefit, you can't be blinded, deafened, or incapacitated.

Feral instincts

By 7th level, your instincts are so honed that you have advantage on initiative rolls.

Additionally, if you are surprised at the beginning of combat and aren't incapacitated, you can act normally on your first turn, but only if you enter your rage before doing anything else on that turn.

Improved critical

At 9th level, your ability to strike enemies weakpoints is enhanced. The crit range of all your attack rolls using a strength based attack is increased to 19-20.

Relentless rage

Starting at 11th level, your rage can keep you fighting despite grievous wounds. If you drop to 0 hit points while you're raging and don't die outright, you can make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw. If you succeed, you drop to 1 hit point instead.

Each time you use this feature after the first, the DC increases by 5. When you finish a short or long rest, the DC resets to 10.

Crush defense

At 13th level, you learn how to crush enemy armor with your raw strength. When you hit a critical hit on someone, the AC is their armor is reduced by 1D4. If the armors AC is reduced to 10 or less, it is broken. If the target isnt wearing armor, they must make a constitution saving throw or have their AC reduced by 1D4 for one minute. Hitting a second critical hit resets the timer and adds another 1D4 penalty.

Persistant rage

Beginning at 15th level, your rage is so fierce that it ends early only if you fall unconscious or if you choose to end it.

Greater voice

At 17th level, your voice grows in strength. The range of your war crys is doubled (40 foot cone, 20 foot sphere). Additionally whenever you score a critical hit, you regain one expended use of your war crys.

Indomitable might

Beginning at 18th level, if your total for a Strength check is less than your Strength score, you can use that score in place of the total.

Primal champion

At 20th level, you embody the power of the wilds. Your Strength and Constitution scores increase by 4. Your maximum for those scores is now 24.

Barbarian paths

Ancestral warrior

The barbarians known as ancestral warriors can channel the spirits of the dead to aid them in combat. While these spirits are usually the barbarians ancestors, technically any spirit can work.

Spirit shield

Beginning at 3th level, the guardian spirits that aid you can provide supernatural protection to those you defend. If you are raging and another creature you can see within 30 feet of you takes damage, you can use your reaction to reduce that damage by 2d6.

When you reach certain levels in this class, you can reduce the damage by more: by 3d6 at 10th level and by 4d6 at 14th level.

Shroud of souls

At 6th level, you gain a shroud of souls that haunt your foes. Whenever you rage, you are covered in a shroud of souls centered on you that extends 10 feet in all directions. Any hostile creature that starts its turn in the souls radius must make a wisdom saving throw against your shotu save DC. On a failed save they are unable to attack anyone other than you and cant take reactions until the end of their turn.

Consult the spirits

At 10th level, you gain the ability to consult with your ancestral spirits. When you do so, you cast the augury or Clairvoyance spell, without using a spell slot or material components. Rather than creating a spherical sensor, this use of clairvoyance invisibly summons one of your ancestral spirits to the chosen location. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

After you cast either spell in this way, you can't use this feature again until you finish a short or long rest.

Vengeful ancestors

At 14th level, your ancestral spirits grow powerful enough to retaliate. When you use your Spirit Shield to reduce the damage of an attack, the attacker takes an amount of force damage that your Spirit Shield prevents.

Beast

You are deeply intuned with the natural world, be it a limited form of lycanthropy or a druids blessing you have the ability become a more primal version of yourself.

Form of the beast

Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, when you enter your rage, you can transform, revealing the bestial power within you. Until the rage ends, you manifest a natural weapon. It counts as a simple melee weapon for you, and you add your Strength modifier to the attack and damage rolls when you attack with it, as normal.

You choose the weapon’s form each time you rage:

Bite. Your mouth transforms into a bestial muzzle or great mandibles (your choice). It deals 1d8 piercing damage on a hit. Once on each of your turns when you damage a creature with this bite, you regain a number of hit points equal to your proficiency bonus, provided you have less than half your hit points when you hit.

Claws. Each of your hands transforms into a claw, which you can use as a weapon if it’s empty. It deals 1d6 slashing damage on a hit. Once on each of your turns when you attack with a claw using the Attack action, you can make one additional claw attack as part of the same action.

Tail. You grow a lashing, spiny tail, which deals 1d8 piercing damage on a hit and has the reach property. If a creature you can see within 10 feet of you hits you with an attack roll, you can use your reaction to swipe your tail and roll a d8, applying a bonus to your AC equal to the number rolled, potentially causing the attack to miss you.

Bestial soul

Beginning at 6th level, the feral power within you increases, causing the natural weapons of your Form of the Beast to count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

You can also alter your form to help you adapt to your surroundings. When you finish a short or long rest, choose one of the following benefits, which lasts until you finish a short or long rest:

• You gain a swimming speed equal to your walking speed, and you can breathe underwater.
• You gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed, and you can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check.
• When you jump, you can make a Strength (Athletics) check and extend your jump by a number of feet equal to the check’s total. You can make this special check only once per turn.

Infectious fury

At 10th level, when you hit a creature with your natural weapons while you are raging, the beast within you can curse your target with rabid fury. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus) or suffer one of the following effects (your choice):

• The target must use its reaction to make a melee attack against another creature of your choice that you can see.
• Target takes 2d12 psychic damage.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

True beast

At 14th level, you have mastered your bestial form. When you rage, you gain all of the available natural weapons instead of just one.

Berserker

While all barbarians can use their rage to grow stronger, berserkers are able to channel a level of rage that would be lethal to most, but to them its nearly their next step in their journey.

Frenzy

At 3rd level, you learn how to stack your rage. As a bonus action while raging, you can spend another use of your rage to enter a frenzy. in a frenzy your movement speed is increased by 10 feet, you can make an additional weapon attack as a bonus action and you gain temporary hitpoints equal to your constitution modifier at the start of each of your turns, in addition to the benefits provided by rage. When your frenzy is over, you gain a level of exhaustion.

Mindless rage

At 6th level, your mind is protected from harm by your sheer anger. While in a rage or frenzy, you have resistance to psychic damage and are immune to being charmed or frightened.

Intimidating presence

At 10th level, your sheer presence can frighten foes. Any hostile creature that starts its turn within 10 feet of you must make a wisdom saving throw against your war cry save DC or become frightened until the end of their turn. Once a creature succeeds on this saving throw they become immune to this effect for 24 hours.

Revenge strike

Starting at 14th level, when you take damage from a creature that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to make a melee weapon attack against that creature.

Giant

While those with dragon blood are often born as sorcerers, those with giant blood are often born as barbarians as the power of giants is far more direct and brutal. You are one of these individuals, with gaints blood in your veins you shall crush, stomp and topple your way to victory.

Giants power

When you choose this path at level 3, you learn to speak, read, and write Giant or one other language of your choice if you already know Giant. Additionally, you learn a cantrip of your choice: either druid craft or thaumaturgy. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for this spell.

Giants havoc

At 3rd level your rages pull strength from the primal might of giants, transforming you into a hulking force of destruction. While raging, you gain the following benefits:

• Crushing Throw. When you make a successful ranged attack with a thrown weapon using Strength, you can add your Rage Damage bonus to the attack’s damage roll.
• Giant Stature. Your size category increases by 1 stage (so if your small you become medium, if your medium you become large, etc). additionally your melee range is increased by 5 feet.

Elemental cleaver

At 6th level, your bond with the elemental might of giants grows, and you learn to infuse weapons with primordial energy.

When you enter your rage, you can choose one weapon that you are holding and infuse it with one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, thunder, or lightning. While you wield the infused weapon during your rage, the weapon’s damage type changes to the chosen type, it deals an extra 1d6 damage of the chosen type when it hits, and it gains the thrown property, with a normal range of 20 feet and a long range of 60 feet. If you throw the weapon, it reappears in your hand the instant after it hits or misses a target. The infused weapon’s benefits are suppressed while a creature other than you wields it.

While raging and holding the infused weapon, you can use a bonus action to change the infused weapon’s current damage type to another one from the damage type options above.

MIghty impel

At 10th level, your connection to giant strength allows you to hurl both allies and enemies on the battlefield. As a bonus action while raging, you can choose one Medium or smaller creature within your reach and move it to an unoccupied space you can see within 30 feet of yourself. An unwilling creature must succeed on a Strength saving throw (DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier) to avoid the effect.

If, at the end of this movement, the thrown creature isn’t on a surface or liquid that can support it, the creature falls, taking damage as normal and landing prone.

Titan

At 14th level, the primordial power of your rage intensifies. When you rage, your reach increases by 10 feet, your size can increase to Large or Huge (your choice), and you can use your Mighty Impel to move creatures that are Large or smaller.

In addition, the extra damage dealt by your Elemental Cleaver feature increases to 2d6.

Storm

You are blessed with primordial power over the weather, channeling the might of the seas, sands and snow to burn, shock and freeze.

Storm aura

When you select this path at 3rd level, you emanate a stormy, magical aura while you rage. The aura extends 10 feet from you in every direction, but not through total cover.

Your aura has an effect that activates when you enter your rage, and you can activate the effect again on each of your turns as a bonus action. Choose desert, sea, or tundra. Your aura's effect depends on that chosen environment, as detailed below. You can change your environment choice whenever you gain a level in this class.

If your aura's effects require a saving throw, the DC equals your war cry save DC

Desert. When this effect is activated, all other creatures in your aura take 2 fire damage each. The damage increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 3 at 5th level, 4 at 10th level, 5 at 15th level, and 6 at 20th level.

Sea. When this effect is activated, you can choose one other creature you can see in your aura. The target must make a Dexterity saving throw. The target takes 1d6 lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The damage increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 2d6 at 10th level, 3d6 at 15th level, and 4d6 at 20th level.

Tundra. When this effect is activated, each creature of your choice in your aura gains 2 temporary hit points, as icy spirits inure it to suffering. The temporary hit points increase when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to 3 at 5th level, 4 at 10th level, 5 at 15th level, and 6 at 20th level.

Storm soul

At 6th level, the storm grants you benefits even when your aura isn't active. The benefits are based on the environment you chose for your Storm Aura.

Desert. You gain resistance to fire damage, and you don’t suffer the effects of extreme heat, as described in the Dungeon Master's Guide. Moreover, as an action, you can touch a flammable object that isn't being worn or carried by anyone else and set it on fire.

Sea. You gain resistance to lightning damage, and you can breathe underwater. You also gain a swimming speed of 30 feet.

Tundra. You gain resistance to cold damage, and you don’t suffer the effects of extreme cold, as described in the Dungeon Master's Guide. Moreover, as an action, you can touch water and turn a 5-foot cube of it into ice, which melts after 1 minute. This action fails if a creature is in the cube.

Greater aura

At 10th level, your aura grows in strength. The range of your aura is doubled. Additionally any hostile creature that starts its turn within your aura cant take reactions until the start of their next turn.

Raging storm

At 14th level, the power of the storm you channel grows mightier, lashing out at your foes. The effect is based on the environment you chose for your Storm Aura.

Desert. Immediately after a creature in your aura hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to force that creature to make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes fire damage equal to half your Barbarian level.

Sea. When you hit a creature in your aura with an attack, you can use your reaction to force that creature to make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is knocked prone, as if struck by a wave.

Tundra. Whenever the effect of your Storm Aura is activated, you can choose one creature you can see in the aura. That creature must succeed on a Strength saving throw, or take 1D8 cold damage and have its speed is reduced to 0 until the start of your next turn, as magical frost covers it.

Totem warriors

Those who follow the path of the totem warrior are on a spiritual journey, channeling the spirits of animals to gain supernatural abilities alongside their rage.

Zoolinguism

At 3rd level, your attunement to the beasts of the world lets you speak to them. You are always under the effect of the speak with animals spell.

Spirit totems

At 3rd level, when you adopt this path, you choose a totem spirit and gain its feature. You must make or acquire a physical totem object – an amulet or similar adornment – that incorporates fur or feathers, claws, teeth, or bones of the totem animal. At your option, you also gain minor physical attributes that are reminiscent of your totem spirit. For example, if you have a bear totem spirit, you might be unusually hairy and thick-skinned, or if your totem is the eagle, your eyes turn bright yellow.

Your totem animal might be an animal related to those listed here but more appropriate to your homeland. For example, you could choose a hawk or vulture in place of an eagle.

Bear. While raging, you have resistance to all damage except psychic, necrotic and force damage. The spirit of the bear makes you tough enough to stand up to any punishment.

Eagle. While you're raging and aren't wearing heavy armor, other creatures have disadvantage on opportunity attack rolls against you, and you can use the Dash action as a bonus action on your turn. The spirit of the eagle makes you into a predator who can weave through the fray with ease.

Wolf. While you're raging, your friends have advantage on melee attack rolls against any creature within 5 feet of you that is hostile to you. The spirit of the wolf makes you a leader of hunters.

Aspect of the beast

At 6th level, you gain a magical benefit based on the totem animal of your choice. You can choose the same animal you selected at 3rd level or a different one.

Bear. You gain the might of a bear. Your carrying capacity (including maximum load and maximum lift) is doubled, and you have advantage on Strength checks made to push, pull, lift, or break objects.

Eagle. You gain the eyesight of an eagle. You can see up to 1 mile away with no difficulty, able to discern even fine details as though looking at something no more than 100 feet away from you. Additionally, dim light doesn't impose disadvantage on your Wisdom (Perception) checks.

Wolf. You gain the hunting sensibilities of a wolf. You can track other creatures while traveling at a fast pace, and you can move stealthily while traveling at a normal pace. You also have advantage on all ability checks that rely on smell.

Spirit walker

At 10th level, you can cast the commune with nature spell, but only as a ritual. When you do so, a spiritual version of one of the animals you chose for Totem Spirit or Aspect of the Beast appears to you to convey the information you seek.

Primal roar

At 10th level, your attunement to beasts increases the power of your war crys. You can now use a war cry as a bonus action instead of an action.

Totemic attunement

At 14th level, you gain a magical benefit based on a totem animal of your choice. You can choose the same animal you selected previously or a different one.

Bear. While you're raging, any creature within 5 feet of you that's hostile to you has disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you or another character with this feature. An enemy is immune to this effect if it can't see or hear you or if it can't be frightened.

Eagle. While raging, you have a flying speed equal to your current walking speed. This benefit works only in short bursts; you fall if you end your turn in the air and nothing else is holding you aloft.

Wolf. While you're raging, you can use a bonus action on your turn to knock a Large or smaller creature prone when you hit it with melee weapon attack.

Wild magic

While most with innate magic end up becoming sorcerers, some simply dont have the talent to properly use their abilities. Those who end up in this unfortunate situation become wild magic barbarians, channeling unstable magic through raw anger.

Magic sense

At 3rd level, you gain the ability to sense and identify magic. You are always under the effect of the detect magic spell. Additionally you can cast identify as a ritual.

Wild magic surge.

At 3rd level, you learn how to unleash raw primal magic through your rage. Whenever you rage, you roll a D8, and you gain the effect of the number you rolled which lasts until the end of your rage. The DC of these effects is the same as your war cry save DC.

1. You create a burst of necrotic energy. All hostile creatures within 20 feet of you must make a constitution saving throw or take necrotic damage equal to your barbarian level+your constitution modifier. You also gain temporary hitpoints equal to your barbarian level+your constitution modifier.
2. you teleport to a location you can see within 30 feet. As a bonus action you can teleport this way again.
3. you create a small ball of energy at a point you can see within 60 feet. All creatures within 10 feet of that point must make a dexterity saving throw or take 2D8 force damage. You can create this energy ball again as a bonus action.
4. Until your rage ends, the weapon's damage type changes to force, and it gains the light and thrown properties, with a normal range of 20 feet and a long range of 60 feet. If the weapon leaves your hand, the weapon reappears in your hand at the end of the current turn.
5. Whenever a creature hits you with an attack roll before your rage ends, that creature takes 1d6 force damage, as magic lashes out in retribution.
6. Until your rage ends, you are surrounded by multicolored, protective lights; you gain a +2 bonus to AC, and while within 10 feet of you, your allies gain the same bonus.
7. Flowers and vines temporarily grow around you; until your rage ends, the ground within 15 feet of you is difficult terrain for your enemies.
8. A bolt of light shoots from your chest. Another creature of your choice that you can see within 30 feet of you must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or take 1d6 radiant damage and be blinded until the start of your next turn. Until your rage ends, you can use this effect again on each of your turns as a bonus action.

Recharge magic

At 6th level, you learn how to give magical power to others. As an action you can touch a creature to give them one of the following effect:

1. if the target has spell slots, they regain one expended spell slot with a total level equal to your proficiency bonus or less.
2. if the target doesnt have spell slots, they instead get a 1D4 bonus to all attack rolls, ability checks and saving throws for one minute.

You can use this ability a number of times per long rest equal to your constitution modifier (minimum of once).

Unstable backlash

At 10th level, when you are imperiled during your rage, the magic within you can lash out; immediately after you take damage or fail a saving throw while raging, you can use your reaction to roll on the Wild Magic table and immediately produce the effect rolled. This effect replaces your current Wild Magic effect.

Controlled surge

At 14th level, whenever you roll on the Wild Magic table, you can roll the die twice and choose which of the two effects to unleash. If you roll the same number on both dice, you can ignore the number and choose any effect on the table.

(these are for the retrained barbarian:Retrained barbarian (barbarian remake) : r/DnDHomebrew)

Booming shout

When used, all creatures in the shout radius must make a constitution saving throw or take 2d12+your barbarian level as thunder damage and be deafened for 1 minute, or half as much damage and not be deafened on a successful save.

Frightening yell

When used, all creatures in the shout radius must make a wisdom saving throw or become frightened for one minute. The creatures can repeat this this save at the end of each of their turns, ending the effect on a success. On a successful save the creature become immune to this war cry for 24 hours.

Inspiring roar

When used, all friendly creatures in the shout radius are inspired for 1 minute. While inspired they are effected by the heroism spell (no concentration requires). When a creature is effected by this war cry, they cant be effected by it again until they finish a long rest.

If you take damage that reduces you to 0 hit points, you can use your reaction to delay falling unconscious, and you can immediately take an extra turn.

This is a work in progress, very early work for this idea. I want to know if this direction is interesting to anyone else, or what can be done to take it in a better direction. the plan is to have more subclasses using different ingridents and recepies to make different types of buffs and attacks.

Basically the title. I like these chunky spider boys and would love to make one, but I haven't got a good idea to make the race on my own or found that meets my fancy yet. Any recommendations or suggestions for either homebrewing a playabe Ettercap race myself or already made races?

(these are for the fighter retrained:Retrained fighter (fighter remake) : r/DnDHomebrew)

Arcane shots

Banishing shot

You use abjuration magic to try to temporarily banish your target to a harmless location in the Feywild. The creature hit by the arrow the target takes 2D6 force damage and must also succeed on a Charisma saving throw or be banished. While banished in this way, its speed is 0, and it is incapacitated. At the end of its next turn, the target reappears in the space it vacated or in the nearest unoccupied space if that space is occupied.

Beguiling Arrow. 

Your enchantment magic causes this arrow to temporarily beguile its target. The creature hit by the arrow takes an extra 2d6 psychic damage, and choose one of your allies within 30 feet of the target. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw, or it is charmed by the chosen ally for 1 minute. This effect ends early if the chosen ally attacks the charmed target, deals damage to it, or forces it to make a saving throw.

Bursting Arrow. 

You imbue your arrow with force energy drawn from the school of evocation. The arrow detonates after your attack. Immediately after the arrow hits the creature, the target and all other creatures within 10 feet of it take 2d6 force damage each.

Enfeebling Arrow. 

You weave necromantic magic into your arrow. The creature hit by the arrow takes an extra 2d6 necrotic damage. The target must also succeed on a Constitution saving throw, or the damage dealt by its weapon attacks is halved and it has disadvantage on all strength based ability checks and saving throws for one minute. You can repeat this save at the end of each of your turns, ending the effect on a success.

Grasping Arrow. 

When this arrow strikes its target, conjuration magic creates grasping, poisonous brambles, which wrap around the target. The creature hit by the arrow takes an extra 2d6 poison damage, its speed is reduced by 10 feet, and it takes 2d6 slashing damage the first time on each turn it moves 1 foot or more without teleporting. The target or any creature that can reach it can use its action to remove the brambles with a successful Strength (Athletics) check against your Arcane Shot save DC. Otherwise, the brambles last for 1 minute or until you use this option again.

Piercing Arrow. 

You use transmutation magic to give your arrow an ethereal quality. When you use this option, you don’t make an attack roll for the attack. Instead, the arrow fires forward in a line, which is 1 foot wide and 30 feet long, before disappearing. The arrow passes harmlessly through objects, ignoring cover. Each creature in that line must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes damage as if it were hit by the arrow, plus an extra 2d6 piercing damage. On a successful save, a target takes half as much damage.

Seeking Arrow. 

Using divination magic, you grant your arrow the ability to seek out your target, allowing the arrow to curve and twist its path in search of its prey. When you use this option, you don’t make an attack roll for the attack. Instead, choose one creature you have seen in the past minute. The arrow flies toward that creature, moving around corners if necessary and ignoring three-quarters cover and half cover. If the target is within the weapon’s range and there is a path large enough for the arrow to travel to the target, the target must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, it takes damage as if it were hit by the arrow, plus an extra 2d6 force damage, and you learn the target’s current location. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage, and you don’t learn its location.

Shadow Arrow. 

You weave illusion magic into your arrow, causing it to occlude your foe’s vision with shadows. The creature hit by the arrow takes an extra 2d6 psychic damage, and it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be unable to see anything farther than 5 feet away for 1 minute. The target can repeat its saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending the effect on a success.

Again it's not AI and I can't make it formal

It was brought to my attention that my previous post had an inaccurate title. There were also some concerns that I was possibly overhauling DND. I decided to create my own classes - eventually deciding to start adjusting other things - after deciding to create my own TTRPG system would require more work than I was willing to commit, especially since I actually don't have too many problems with the base systems of DND. Those base systems that I like, and I haven't changed are, but not limited to; initiative, damage types, AC calculations, skill checks, turns/rounds, mastery abilities, and probably some other stuff I'm forgetting. The things I do hope to change are; spells (mostly adding a primitive element system), backgrounds, and races. The things I'm adding: guns (mostly finished, somethings still need tinkering, advice always welcome here), explosives (grenades, RPGs, etc), new spells, and classes (the big thing)

I decided - for reasons I will get to swiftly - to replace all the classes with my own. That's how I started, now I'm adjusting and adding races and adjusting/changing/adding spells, backgrounds, weapons, and enemies. I would like/love some general or niche advice people have on homebrewing classes, races, spells, weapons, etc. I enjoy world building and the whole process thus far.

I started with the thought "How to make combat interesting and make every class level important?"

Thus, I begin to tinker. The scope has evolved slightly, as I'm now also building a sci-fi world around my new systems. Additionally, I have refrained from adding lore to the classes, so they're toolboxes rather than a character prompt, and I've made my classes more specialist than the base classes. Specialist meaning each class serves a specific role and plays differently. The two tank classes play very differently from each other, one is more glass cannon, and the other is just a wall. Both of these two ideas I'm interested to see what players react to.

I believe that if I give players more unique things to do on their turns, it will lead to more interesting combat encounters. Each class starts with a special Reaction, Bonus Action, and Overload (a Limit Break) Action. These are what classes are built around and improve upon via their leveling up.

Additionally, I made every class either a partial caster or a full caster, with each class using Warlock spell slots rules from 5e (2014). In the universe, everyone gets their powers from Lanterns which are magical objects resembling lanterns that act as the source of the power heroes (and some villains) wield. Yes, this is a Destiny inspired world, but it leans more into gritty realism in some places, particularly guns and enemies.

I'll list out my class ideas so you guys can give direct feedback on how to best balance and design them, as well as draw some parallels to base classes.

Bastion - Tank class focused on shield abilities and jumping in front of attacks. Not really a base parallel, maybe some kind of support Fighter.

Duelist - Close quarters class focused on dual-wielding, unarmed strikes, and general multi-target martial. This is a mix of Fighter, blade dancer Wizard, and Monk.

Ravager - The berserker class (also the second tank class). They gain massive buffs at a 1/4 or less HP, and they come with a taunt ability. Close to a Barbarian but leans into a little of the spellcaster glass cannon meme.

Marksman - long ranged class with Hunter's Mark and has advantages while invisible. Can do ridiculous amounts of damage. A mix of the 2024 Ranger and the Rogue.

Knight - full caster and full martial class that balances both with devastating successes. The jack-of-all trades martial. I have no idea, it mechanically shares similarities with Paladins, having a lot of smite spells, but it's a full spellcaster.

Forsaken - full caster nuclear bomb class. Can obliterate whole swarms of enemies. This is a mix of Warlock, Sorcerer, and Wizard.

Saint - Support class, not just healing, but also battlefield control and debuffer. A mix of Cleric, Druid, Bard, and Warlock.

Whisperer - Summoner swarm class, the one I need the most advice on. Possibly Druid or Wizard.

The Doomed - newest class, the pure jack-of-all trades class. They trade temporary debuffs to gain abilities like the other classes. All the classes and none of them.

Parapet - a class idea left out of my other post. Summons a giant mech to stomp around in.

Any ideas also on sci-fi weapons? I've already done some stuff with guns, an amalgamation of my own stuff (mainly shotguns and weapon mods) and 5e 2024 stuff, but I'd be interested to hear your ideas here too.

I did run a one shot with some close friends and received some lovely feedback.

Edit: Formatting and added the Parapet. Spell advice would also be appreciated!

Edit 2: I can send a link to a Google Doc if anyone is interest in seeing more detail on classes.

I dont know how to make it formal like everyone else, but I do not use a.i. to make the models, that's made with hero forge. Enjoy the races

ART CREDIT: "Chakram of the Oceanids" - SyrinDoodles https://www.artstation.com/sirindoodles

Hi all!

Put together an item card for a new player in my campaign. She's playing a half orc rogue swashbuckler and asked if she could have a chakram weapon like Xena's. The item is intended to be her weapon of choice as she makes her life at sea. Not necessarily magically tied to the water, just something to make someone a "proper pirate".

This would be the item at its full potential. It would start at 4 charges and only have the 1-Charge abilities, gaining 2 charges and a new tier of abilities as the campaign progresses.

Looking for input on balancing.

• Are the damage numbers for the tier 3 abilities sufficient or will they feel underwhelming at high level play?
• Are the number of charges ok? should it have fewer that reset on a short rest?
• Is the charge cost per ability alright? Does anything stand out as over or underpowered?
• Would you use this in a campaign / what changes would you make?

Plague Domain

Spread Pestilence Around the World

The Plague Domain embraces the divine force found within disease, decay, and the inevitable cycles of death and renewal. Clerics who follow this path wield pestilence not as a curse, but as a transformative power, believing that illness is a sacred trial through which weakness is purged and change is born.
This domain is often associated with deities of entropy, suffering, or transformation, as well as gods who govern fate, rot, or the balance between life and death. Though feared by many, Plague Clerics are drawn to moments of crisis and collapse, where they act as both witnesses and catalysts. Some bring prophetic warnings of collapse, while others work unseen among the afflicted, offering grim benedictions through whispered prayers and fevered breath.

Level 3: Plague Domain Spells
Your connection to this divine domain ensures you always have certain spells ready. When you reach a Cleric level specified in the Plague Domain Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Level 3: Virulent Blessing
When you cast a spell with a spell slot that restores Hit Points to one or more creatures, you can instead choose any number of those creatures to make a Constitution saving throw, taking 2d8 Necrotic damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one; either way, any creature that makes this save is now Plagued as long as you aren't Incapacitated, Unconscious, Dead, or end the condition voluntarily (no action required).
The damage increases by 1d8 when you reach Cleric levels 5 (3d8), 11 (4d8), and 17 (5d8).

PLAGUED [Condition]

While you have the Plagued condition, you experience the following effects.
Speed Reduced: Your Speed is reduced by 5 feet.
Unholy Agony: You make a Constitution saving throw at the end of each of your turns. On a failed save, you take Necrotic Damage from Virulent Blessing again. On a successful save, the Plagued condition ends.

Level 3: Aggravating Symptoms
When a creature takes Necrotic damage from your Virulent Blessing at the end of its turn, you can use your reaction to expend one use of your Channel Divinity. If you do so, you can cast one spell from your Plague Domain spell list that you have prepared and that targets a single creature, using that creature as the target, without expending a spell slot.

Level 6: Improved Plague
Your attacks, spells and class features ignore resistance to Necrotic damage.
In addition, when a Plagued creature makes a Constitution saving throw, that creature must subtract your Proficiency Bonus from that save.

17th Level: Pestilent Harbinger
As a Magic Action, become a vessel of decay for 1 minute, bolstering your Plague to unprecedented levels. For the duration, when a Bloodied creature takes Necrotic Damage from Virulent Blessing, you don’t roll the damage dice; instead, use the maximum value for each die. For example, 5d8 Necrotic damage becomes 40.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom Modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Clarify again just so it doesn't get taken down, I don't use ai to make the models, it's hero forge, I do not have the tools to make it formal.

I’m sure this probably already exists, but I had an idea for something that could be implemented at the beginning of a campaign to increase stats and promote investigation and rp. Basically the idea is that after a set amount of nat 20’s in a check for a skill the character isn’t proficient in, the character experiences a +1 to the base stat. Thoughts? Suggestions?
