    Level Up (A5E) Culture names without Heritage references

    For various reasons I want to remove the direct reference to heritages in some of the culture names, so far this is what I have: Deep Dwarf Duergar Deep Gnome Svirfneblin Forest Gnome Knook High Elf Hill Dwarf Kithbáin Halfling Mountain Dwarf Mustbairn Halfling Shadow Elf Drow Stoic Orc...

    D&D 5E Repurposing Strixhaven as Arcanix in Eberron

    I've began, in earnest, a project to embed the material in Strixhaven into a more Eberron friendly form. Using a template I snagged from hearden over on reddit, I've started with your fellow Arcanix students. :)

    D&D General Crown Chimeras

    I don't have meddlesome gods in my setting (religion is closer to the Eberron model), but I want to include some major figures that serve a somewhat similar role (something akin to 13th Age Icons). What I settled on were unique dragon+X beings I'm calling Crown Chimeras. I need some help with...

    D&D General Campaign Setting based on Venn Intersections of Other Settings

    I've been trying to brainstorm some salient themes for a setting based on overlapping tropes in published settings, so far I have: Scions of Power - Eberron's Dragonmarks and Birthright's Blood abilities. Monsterous Monarchs - Dark Sun's Sorcerer Kings and Birthright's Awnsheghlien. A Magic...

    D&D General A Curated Cantina

    I'm putting together a homebrew world with a tight elemental theme, and want to have a limited number of humanoid species. These are to be the heritages for PCs and primary antagonists as well. They are presented with species name, poetic byname, and affinity. For example, Human - Childer of the...

    Level Up (A5E) Level Up Playtest 1: Gnomes

    Got a chance to look over the playtest a little bit and thought I'd comment on the gnome section. :) As has been pointed out, if you choose Gnomish Agility, and a non-magical culture, this isn't really the case. More on that later. I know this is following after the base game, but I think...

    TSR Rob Kuntz Recounts The Origins Of D&D

    In this interesting article from Kotaku, Rob Kuntz relates a history of early TSR that differs somewhat from the narrative we usually hear. It delves into the relationship between Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson (D&D's co-creators) and the actual development of the game, which dates back to Arneson...

    Harmony of the Spheres: an Eberron Centric Cosmogony

    In celebration of the thirteenth day of the month, I thought I'd present my idea of how a native of Eberron might view the origins of a potential cross-over cosmology: In a time before time, there existed three great dragons Syberis, Khyber and Eberron. Each was the master of its own domain...

    D&D 5E My Hack for the Dragonmark Playtest Rules

    This is my attempt to address a few related issues, namely demi-human Dragonmarks for first level characters and the fact that sub-races aren't really a thing in Eberron. I've rolled them all together into something I've dubbed "Callings". Human: Standard Variant Marked^ * Finding * Handling *...

    D&D 5E Eberron Musings

    I've been pondering how the 5E version of Eberron will balance two of the settings foundational precepts, "If it's in D&D, it's in Eberron" and "Subcultures, not subraces", when it comes to the baked in subraces of the standard game. The elves seem simple enough: Wood Elf = Elf, Dark Elf = Drow...
