    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    Have done so! Been fiddling around with it thanks to all the great suggestions I've been getting here!

    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    I ended up incorporating the feat into the ability as I felt it'd be silly to have one without the other. However, I could have the elements of the feat at a different level if it's too much all at once. I'm not entirely sold on feats as a separate thing, especially the way feat trees were and...

    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    Okay, thanks! I can move the Knacks to 2nd level along with the Fighting Style or move Fighting Style to 3rd. I want to avoid moving too much to 3rd, though, so the Lodge feature isn't overshadowed (and the player overwhelmed with choices).

    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    Oh! Thanks! I actually have this down in the subclasses. ^^; I felt that it might be a good idea to have that be thematically related, but I can either add some more generic ones or move them from the subclasses. I followed Laserllama on the subclasses where they have three 3rd-level, one...

    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    Hmm. I wanted the Ranger to have some kind of options when it came to fighting style (rather than forcing them to be an archer). Would moving it help? I had Spellcasting at 1st level because I gave the Rangers cantrips. I tend to feel that if a class (or subclass) can cast spells it needs to be...

    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    If you have any advice on the layout, I'd appreciate it. I wanted to make it as easy to read as possible (in Word the headers and subheaders collapse), but may have gone a wee bit overboard! This is why I need other people to read it and give me advise. Things don't always seem OP when I write...

    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    The first 7 pages are the Table of Contents with hyperlinks to the other pages in the document. They ought to work in the PDF. I'm not quite sure where to best place the "back to top" option, so it's not there (yet). The next 15 pages are base features about half of which are Knacks which...

    D&D General A Homebrewed Ranger Class

    I created a homebrew Ranger class using basically every version of the Ranger (plus some other folk's home brew) as a guide. I was hoping for some feedback on it but the document is 68 pages (22492 words, 173 or 176 [on disk] KB) long and it seems a bit much to ask anyone to read through all...

    D&D General When and where did the idea of Ranger as "wilderness rogue" start?

    To go with everyone else, the following are from 1e (emphasis mine): Rangers are a sub-class of fighter who are adept at woodcraft, tracking, scouting, infiltration, and spying. In addition to considerable prowess as fighters, rangers have druidic and magical spell capabilities when they...

    D&D 5E (2014) Pick Thy Apocalypse

    For a different version: It is the Year of Our World 1000 Post Cataclysm. I am Novice Mette Greenfield recording on behest of Magus Ruificent. We left the demiplane of Twiver early in the morning as a group of six. Captain Gyremore and Thyroar the Strong came as guards. Druid Phymore...

    There could be Orgone (ORG), the seventh ability, dedicated solely to spellcasting ability.

    D&D General Brobdingnag

    nods This is why I'm looking for advice. While playing as a giant seems exciting, it's a bit problematic in other regards. It'd certainly be fun to do a lot of the "Hulk smash!" stuff as a giant, but much less fun to come across a dungeon you literally can't fit into. Different sized...

    D&D General Brobdingnag

    Inspired by the small setting thread I got to thinking about the opposite. A setting where the players are all giants. The setting itself would be just as gigantic. As a size comparison, I have a table of giants from different settings below (yes, I'm aware Hill Giants and Fire Giants are...

    Furry Lord of the Rings

    Well, besides that, the Elves are Fading for many reasons in terms of original lore, but mostly it is a way to get from the magical past to the mundane present where we just don't encounter that sort of thing anymore. If it's not our Earth then there's no particular reason the Elves, Dwarves...

    Furry Lord of the Rings

    For a Furry Lord of the Rings, what would the Lore be like? In Tolkien it's a mythic history of our Earth, but here it's simply not going to be. I've been playing around with ideas for had the setting not been Earth but it's not going to resemble Middle Earth except in the broadest way.

    Furry Lord of the Rings

    It depends on how closely we want to keep to Tolkien. If we want to keep the strictest closeness, then Canines would be the best bet with Elves as Wolves, Humans as Dogs, Hobbits as Small Dogs, and Dwarves as Painted Dogs (which can't interbreed with Wolves/Dogs but look similar enough)...

    Furry Lord of the Rings

    If Gonzo is Frodo then Pepe has to be Sam and very likely Fozzie is either Merry or Pippin. If the Human Character isn't Aragon then Kermit will be and Piggy will absolutely play Arwen and if he's not she's playing Éowyn to his Faramir.

    D&D 5E (2024) What do people think of the new dragon designs?

    My main issue with the Blue Dragon is I simply can't figure out how it's supposed to hide in most normal-colored sand with that dramatic black back.

    D&D 5E (2014) Looking for a "Nature Wizard" Subclass [+]

    Well, you've already listed some ways that are more fluff than crunch. Does the player intend his character to take up more of the Druid class? In any case, some subclasses that could work with reflavoring: http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/wizard:lore-mastery-ua : instead of bookishness, the...

    D&D 5E (2024) How did I miss this about the Half races/ancestries

    So, what, we're going to get into how "pure" someone's bloodline is? I know! Let's bring back nifty terms like they had for folks of mixed heritage here in the US!
