[QUOTE="cbwjm, post: 7277845, member: 6788732"] [b]Elemental Fighter - The Inferno[/b] Just an idea I've had kicking around for a while now, a series of elemental themed subclasses. Originally, I was tempted to create fighter subclasses for the elements of air, earth, fire, water, and storm but now after looking at earlier editions and other systems for ideas, I'm thinking of splitting them up between different classes so I may create a rogue subclass based on air and a monk subclass based on water. Normally I would give out cantrips that suit the theme as well, I decided not to in this case and instead sped up the gain of spells to be at the same rate as a half-caster. I did play around with giving them the selected spells and then warlock casting with 2 slots/short rest but ultimately decided to go with innate casting on a long rest.
