Shadowdark Shadowdark General Thread [+]

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

If anyone's interested, I attempted to homebrew a Shadowdark Ranger. This is still a draft, and I'm open to feedback. I have not run it in a game yet. I tried to make it balanced based on the standard classes in the core rulebook and went with my personal take on fantasy Rangers (no/low magic; primarily a stealthy hunter-tracker). Thank you.

That looks pretty good at a glance. Simpler and more focused than the Western Reaches one.

To go along with my Shadowdark Ranger, here's an attempt at a Druid. Welcome any feedback. I'm not as satisfied with this one as I am with the Ranger, but I'm trying to avoid making it wholly different or unbalanced with the existing core classes in SD.

I want it to feel like a D&D-ish druid and stand apart from the other classes, but still keep it approachable and simple so it fits Shadowdark. Thanks if you take a look.

Was this overpowered?

Chimera. Level 10 monster. VS 7 PC's with a total of 12 levels.

The Chimera tore them apart. 4 attacks at +7 for 2D8 PLUS a breath weapon DC15 for 4D6? 4 died and the other 3 barely lived and probably would have died had initiative been in my favor.

By compassion they fought a Remorhaz (level 10), they kicked it's butt, more or less. One PC almost died.
