[QUOTE="Raunalyn, post: 6432616, member: 72670"] I have already begun my 5e Dragonlance campaign. I can give you a few things that I did...if you like them, you can borrow them :) Looking at your Draconians, I have one small disagreement on the Bozaks. They are your mage-like Draconians, so giving them a bonus to Int or Cha makes more sense than giving them a bonus to Wis. For wizards, I went a similar route. I even put together how High Sorcery would work. When a robed mage's moon is in High Sanction (a full moon), they gain more power from their connection to their moon. In game terms, this means that they can cast spells as if they are one level higher. This does not grant them new spells, however, but it does allow them to cast lower level spells in a higher level spell slot. For example, the moon Solinari is currently in High Sanction. A 4th level white robed mage would be able to cast spells as a 5th level mage, gaining the extra 3rd level spell slots. He doesn't gain access to the Fireball spell, but he will gain the capability to cast Burning Hands in a 3rd level spell slot if he so chooses. But, in all things there must be balance. When their moon is in Low Sanction (a new moon), then they effectively cast spells as if they were one level lower. This means that they could lose access to their highest level spells (a 5th level mage would cast spells as a 4th level mage, losing access to 3rd level spell slots). For Knights, I went a bit different that yours. I created a subclass for fighters called Knights of the Crown. Since Crown knights are kind of the "base" class of the knighthood, they would be the foundation for the other orders. I then created a few feats that were only eligible to be taken by the Knight subclass. These feats would add features of the Sword or Rose knights, but the character would still gain features of the Crown knight. I have one party member who has just joined the knighthood...the Crown knight base class is working well, so we'll see what happens if he decides to progress to the other orders. If you're interested, I can post some of my notes. [/QUOTE]
