Jul 23

Mythological Figures: Vlad the Impaler (5E)
Jul 15
  • 20
The Mythological Figures column has been hijacked by builds using the material from A Touch More Class for a while now: Sherlock Holmes as a savant, Nikola Tesla as a tinkerer, Billy the Kidd as a gunfighter, Paul Bunyan as a monster tamer alongside Babe the blue ox, Harry Houdini as a fatebender, and Zhang Zhou as a geomancer. Today though we’re switching it up a bit and calling up a class from the original A Touch of Class.

Mythological Figures: Zhuang Zhou (5E)
Jul 08
  • 0
The Mythological Figures column / A Touch More Class experiment has thus far seen: Sherlock Holmes (using the savant), Nikola Tesla (built as a tinkerer), Billy the Kidd (the gunfighter), Paul Bunyan (a monster tamer alongside Babe the blue ox), and last week Harry Houdini (fatebender in the house!) The Kickstarter is live right now (go pledge if you haven’t!) so I’m continuing the series, although today we’re going way, way back to the distant past, far from the literary and historical figures we’ve recently looked at.
Mythological Figures: Harry Houdini (5E)
Jul 01
  • 2
So far in the Mythological Figures column / A Touch More Class foray we’ve looked at Sherlock Holmes (a savant), Nikola Tesla (using the tinkerer), Billy the Kidd (the gunfighter), and even Paul Bunyan (with Babe the blue ox thanks to the monster tamer class). The Kickstarter has been live for a while now and we’re at that tricky part in the middle where folks have either already pledged or waiting until the end to do so--with that in mind today’s subject is the undisputed master of escapology, a born performer that nary a century ago easily worked his way into the mythology of not just America, but the world. Who else could it be but Harry Houdini!

EN5ider #278 - Top Shelf Spell Components

Jun 24
  • 1
Today's issue of EN5ider takes a good hard look at one of the fundamental aspects of spellcasting and considers one way to make it more engaging: better spell components! Frequent contributor Andrew Engelbrite has over two dozen suggestions on reagents that will bring the magic back to your D&D 5E table in an article that is hard to put down once you've started reading it.
Mythological Figures: Paul Bunyan (5E)
Jun 24
  • 9
The Mythological Figures treatments made using A Touch More Class have now included Sherlock Holmes (the savant), Nikola Tesla (the tinkerer), and Billy the Kidd (the gunfighter) but with the Kickstarter now underway (and crushing stretch goals! Over $42,000 in less than a week!!) we're going for someone really, REALLY big. The biggest in the country of bigness. A myth most certainly far too large to be contained in my poor-minstrelesque rambling prologue: Paul Bunyan!
EN5ider #277 - Archetypes of Antiquity
Jun 17
  • 0
EN5ider is getting positively Hellenic with today's issue! Delve further to see a proper gladiator archetype, something for warlocks looking to pierce the veil of time, and a domain for the community-minded cleric! Tomorrow the A Touch More Class Kickstarter goes live but if you can't wait, check out the free previews for the geomancer and savant classes!
Mythological Figures: Billy the Kid (5E)
Jun 17
  • 9
Last week in Mythological Figures we did Nikola Tesla using the tinkerer from A Touch More Class (and the week prior Sherlock Holmes using the savant) and that trend continues as the Kickstarter approaches (join the mailing list here to get notified when it launches TOMORROW). Today however we're headed into the frontier of the Wild West. The subject? An infamous gun-wielding outlaw that could be held by no jail, the free-rambling drifter known by many names but one more than any other: Billy the Kid!

Today sees the release of a second preview for A Touch More Class, the sequel to EN Publishing's bestselling A Touch of Class. The first preview of the full 101-page book (the savant) is located here, and this installment details one of the spellcaster options out of the nine new classes—another brilliant approach to mages by Josh Gentry absolutely worth taking a look at.
EN5ider #276 - Mini-Adventure: Secret Faces of Velsburg
Jun 10
  • 0
Today's EN5ider post is a sidequest by Charlie Brooks where the PCs learn a dangerous secret about the small, remote hamlet of Velsburg as they go about saving its citizens from a bloodthirsty serial killer. If you're looking for a quick excursion for 4-5 PCs of 5th level (or thereabouts) that will compel the table to make a tough decision at its end then read onward!
Mythological Figures: Nikola Tesla (5E)
Jun 10
  • 10
Mythological Figures: Nikola Tesla Last week in Mythological Figures we did a build of Sherlock Holmes using the savant from A Touch More Class and we’ve decided to continue that trend as the Kickstarter approaches (join the mailing list here). With that in mind today’s subject is one right out of history instead of literature or myth, and given his forte we’re using the tinkerer class to stat out Nikola Tesla!
EN5ider #275 - Intriguing Organizations: The Osseous Dwarves of Hollow Mountain
Jun 03
  • 0
Today on EN5ider we have undead dwarves unable to see they've long since passed from the living, eager to defend their fallen kingdom with the fearsome bone weapons they've carved out of their enemy's corpses. Just another Monday!
