Is there anything about the offspring of platinum dragonborn? I wonder if they are born their original race but with a touch of magic, like a sorcerer. I wonder what would happen if a dragonborn did the rebirth ritual and then had a child. Maybe the child would have platinum scales. I figure...

Interesting, are the platinum dragonborn different in any major way. I was sad to see that dragonborn only had a breath weapon and no option for mind or wings. I even made a homebrew because of it, which I guess was a waste of time. Maybe I could keep them and call them platinum dragonborn or...

Seeing an owl during the day could just mean something disturbed it's resting place.

I have no problem killing familiars but it's usually because it tactically makes sense for the npc's to do so or they are caught in an AoE. There have been other times obviously but that is a rarity. A bald aarakocra that had an envious driven hate for all that is feathered. A mouse trap in a...

The only spells I can think of off the top of my mind are Glibness, Otto's Irresistible Dance, and the Power Word spell line. I'll need to check later but I don't see why those can't be turned into class features or adjusted in some way. Off the top of my head there are a few things that could...

I'll check it out when I have time thanks. I'm mainly making subclasses for my homebrew class system. Every class will be getting subclasses features and ASI on the same levels. I wanted to make a system where some subclasses could be taken by multiple classes and still stay a bit balanced.

Okay cool, I wasn't sure if you counted them the same way, because they are temporary and have no gp cost.

"kill on sight" makes it seem like you go out of your way to kill the familiars. An owl hanging out at the tavern a bit drunk and trying to out sing the bard with its delightful squawks, a random cat kills it. A raven telling scary stories around the campfire, a random ghost possesses the it...

I agree with that, but I like the idea of the bard being a half caster and making it up with more and/or improved class features.

That's a good one, I like it. How does that rule interact with Flock of Familiars?.

That makes sense, I was confused about the ancestry but I jumped to the conclusion that they get the ancestry from the scales in 5e. Thanks for the info, I still like the way 3.5 did it. But I always did like racial templates. When 5e came out I was hoping that templates would come back as...

Scion of Io instead of Bahamut? I might be wrong or the lore is different. I haven't read about dragonborn in a really long time but from what I recall. To become a dragonborn you just need to do a ritual right? Make a large egg like shell out of dragon scales fast for three days inside while...

Maybe I should go with something basic for all of them to start and aim for a matching divinity as the final theme ability? Balancing mechanics takes just a bit of time but balancing themes... That may just be the second hardest thing to do when making homebrew. Oh course the hardest beats all...

That is sooo much better than a doppelganger. I love it, now to just figure out a balanced way to do it.

Now to find a way to make my next familiar an awakened ten foot pole.

I have tried a few different versions of Find Familiar, just to see how it would do. Reduce max range in could travel 50ft or 100ft helped it not take up the scout role completely. Familiar can't travel past 30ft in high magic density areas or maybe even can't exist. Make it a class feature so...

I'm making rclasses and there will be initiator levels that work like caster levels. Initiator levels grant ki.

Awesome thanks! The infused works really well for me as well because my groups don't have aasimars or tieflings, we instead have half-outsiders. Where does larethinite come from?

Hello I'm looking for ideas for some new racial subclasses. So far I have: Halfling - Leprechaun Changeling - Doppelganger Dragonborn - ??Halfdragon?? They don't have to be monstrous but those were the first to pop into my head. I'm looking for something that is universal and can be taken by...

Thanks, I like hearing about other peoples world building and that one is pretty nice.
