The shield has never gotten its due in the d20 system, and the three level shieldbearer prestige class seeks to rectify that oversight. Master at Arms: EscrimeurHere the Master at Arms series explores the intricacies of classical fencing. The escrimeur prestige class focuses primarily on the rapier, but provides option for fencing with other weapons, such as the saber and the two-handed estoc. Blackdyrge’s Templates: DevoutThe next template in the synergy line, the devout template adds a bit of a divine spark to your villains and monsters. Blackdyrge’s Templates: BruteThe brute template allows you to dramatically increase the power level of your humanoids, giants, and monstrous humanoids without having to add class levels. Brutes are big, mean, and pack a wallop that might surprise PCs thinking, “Hey, it’s just a big goblin.”Animal Archives – Prehistoric Animals IIThe next installment of the Animal Archives series contains 10 new prehistoric animals plus a number of templated and advanced version of the animals found within.
