D&D (2024) EN5ider Magazine Issue #2 Introduces The All-New Protomancer D&D Class!

I have to tell you all that I am humbled and impressed by what Michael McCarthy and Andrew Engelbrite did here, and I have already sent the PDF to some colleagues in the industry because god damn did they really do something special. They deserve more recognition for it than just the credits in the front. I wish this thing could get submitted to the ENnies.

Why not start one. Make up a panel of judges you trust and give chose you feel add value to the magazine get an at a boy and bragging rights.

The protomancer looks amazing! Do you think it would need anything to fit in well with Level Up?

sweet idea, looks well done, but uh...the proficiency bonus column is wrong.

This is what I was wondering. Is it going to have the information needed to use it with Level up? If not I would love to see suggestions on how to make it so.

Because of how the design space works (access to the SRD but not all of the monsters in the ruleset) everything needed to be broken down into components that GMs can use to figure out the patterns in a repetition (monster attack or trait) that we couldn't print in the Big List™. So yes. Absolutely Narrators can run a protomancer in their Level Up game, and for the most part will be able to draw directly from the Big List™ though when they can't the tools are there to figure things out.

I'd also probably bestow the same social and exploration features that a wizard gets for a protomancer in a Level Up game. Or maybe handpick a list from that and sorcerer? Just give em something for the other two pillars.

That was my thought as well. Thanks!
