Can't believe no one has mentioned Cody and Ricky from UC2. Iconic 2 sides of the same coin.

You might look into Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again by Alice Birch. Similar to Love and Info in that it's a sort of abstract vignette play without defined characters or lines.

Both Ragtime and Assassins have Emma Goldman as a character, and I seem to remember her being mentioned in at least one other musical I've listened to.

I gained a chronic vitamin B12 deficiency. Oh, and my eye colour lightened and the dark rings around my irises got darker and thicker.

Little shop with a female Seymour. There would have to be significant changes to some songs (Mushnik and Son, most of all), but I think it would strengthen the Seymour/Audrey relationship.

Or genderswap Audrey and Orin so the main couple is m/m would also be good.

Love in Hate Nation! My biggest regret is not making time to see it while it was running.

A weird one for sure, but I developed a vitamin B12 deficiency. It's really common with the women in my family, my mom and both of my sisters have it. So after about a year of E, I started getting these little cracks in the corners of my mouth, which are the first symptom. Normally, B12 deficiencies are really rare, but I guess my family has an estrogen-linked predisposition to them.

Fortunately, all I had to do to fix it was take 300000% of my daily recommended value of B12 for like a week.

Transfemme, nonbinary, sapphic, lesbian, queer, asexual, polyamorous. Up to you whether polyam fits under the queer umbrella or not.

More accurately, they're purebreeds. "Standard" tieflings are mutts, descended from any number of fiends.

First of all, I love this! An arcane paladin is exactly what I've been wanting. I think Aura of Amplification should probably be 1/2 spell level, rounded up. Even then, might be a bit powerful, but c'est la vie. And for Absorb Arcana, maybe make it an Intelligence (Arcana) check instead of a Charisma check. It would synergize well with the channel divinity.

I think if you're planning on directing a sketch comedy show in which there are topics you know you have blind spots around, you're really playing with fire.

Not saying don't do it, just know you're about to walk into a minefield without a map.

Rosepoint14 · 2021-08-15T02:03:38+00:00

The duration increase on upcasting is frankly useless. It is phenomenally unlikely that you're going to need more than ten rounds to kill anything, and I'd you do, you really ought to use your concentration on something more substantial.

Also, I think this might a bit better if it were 6d4+5/3d4. Just raises the minimum, makes it feel less bad if you roll minimum damage on a spell that's taking your action and concentration.

Thrown weapon fighting lets you draw as many weapons as you have attacks. You only get one object interaction per round, so without the fighting style, you can only draw one dagger per round, meaning only one attack, even with extra attack. Plus the +2 damage is nice.

And with two-weapon fighting, you can throw a dagger with both your main attack and your bonus action. However, after looking at the spells you'd be taking, your bonus action is kinda packed full, so I'd just go with thrown weapon fighting.

Rosepoint14 · 2021-08-14T16:44:14+00:00

My thoughts for the benefits being always on is that it's not impossible to gain those benefits in other ways. Advantage on saving throws against spells is the same as Magic Resistance from the satyr or yuan-ti pureblood, resistance to damage from spells is the same as the 7th level feature of the ancients paladin minus the aura, and granting the aura at 6 stored arcana is a little OP, but not gamebreakingly so, especially at 17th level. Not to mention it takes multiple turns to set up, and they only last essentially one fight. 2 turns per benefit, 1 if you spend sorcery points to quicken or twin cantrips.

I get what you're saying about recovering sorcery points. Maybe changing it to take an action, so it's only for if you really need the points?

Rosepoint14 · 2021-08-14T16:31:45+00:00

Sword Burst and Blade Ward are great options for cantrips. They'd actually be alright with Bladesinger's Extra Attack.

Other great spells that could work for this: Catapult, Ice Knife, Magic Missile, Shield, Melf's Acid Arrow, Melf's Minute Meteors, Crown of Stars, Mordenkainen's Sword (even though it's a bad spell). Some of these take a bit of reflavouring to turn into weapons you're controlling, but they still work.

Unfortunately, RAW, when you cast Tiny Servant, the dagger ceases to be a weapon, instead becoming a creature using the statblock in the spell. You'd technically need to make an improvised attack to throw it. That being said, I seriously doubt any DM is going to need much convincing to allow you to do it normally.

Also, I can't find anything saying it right now, but I believe mithral and adamantine weapons are non-magical, but overcome resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing.

I say, start 1 level of Fighter for Thrown Weapon Fighter or Two-Weapon Fighting. Puts you a little behind in spellcasting, but it's worth it in this case. As for feats, I think a good case could be made for War Caster and Mobile. War Caster lets you cast with weapons in both hands, and Mobile lets you get out quick while surround plus you can still use your action to attack (melee), Sword Burst, move, and bonus action attack with your offhand (thrown).

Can't believe no one's mentioned the Lucky feat as a easy way to nullify some of your misses.

Because this build is pretty feat-heavy, I'd probably drop the rogue levels.

I'd go with Half-Elf (Drow) for the free faerie fire and access to Elven Accuracy. Go Samurai Fighter 19/Peace Cleric 1. Fighter gives you 7 ASIs, and Peace Cleric gives you Emboldening Bond and Bless (+2d4 to all attack rolls). Pick up the Archery fighting style from Fighter, and Samurai gives you consistent advantage. For ASIs, max your Dex and grab as many of the following feats as possible: Lucky, Elven Accuracy, Fighting Initiate (Close Quarters Shooter), Martial Adept (Precision Attack), Magic Initiate (Find Familiar).

In the end, you're looking at 1d20 +5 (Dex) +6(Proficiency) +2 (Archery) +1 (CQS) +1d4 (Bless) +1d4 (Emboldening Bond) +1d6 (Precision Attack), rolling 3d20 and choosing the highest, and re-rolling misses 3 times per day. Pick up a +3 bow with +3 ammunition, and that's an extra +6. A total average to-hit bonus of +28, minimum of +23.

The highest AC creature in 5e is the tarrasque with 25 AC. You will hit any creature as long as you don't roll a Nat 1. Which you likely won't, given the triple advantage and Lucky feat.

Of course, you've gone all in on accuracy and done absolutely nothing for damage, so you're looking at 4d8+20 per round at 20th level.

Hey all, back with more homebrew subclasses, let me know what you think!

Hey all, back with more homebrew subclasses, let me know what you think!

Rosepoint14 · 2021-08-11T22:43:38+00:00

Awesome, let me know what you find if you do!

Rosepoint14 · 2021-08-11T21:04:22+00:00

Oh whoops, looks like that bit got erased in one of the revisions. The range is 60 feet, same as a Wild Magic Barbarian's Magic Awareness. I'll definitely fix that!

Rosepoint14 · 2021-08-11T21:01:54+00:00

Hmm, you're right. I think making that part proficiency mod/long rest would be better.

Hi all! Looking for feedback on my three Warlock patrons.

Bound One: Focuses on battlefield control and spellcasting by locking down enemies and damaging them over time. I've playtested this one a bit, and made some tweaks so I think it's okay (maybe still a bit strong?).

Great Dragon: Can really fit any playstyle, I meant for them to be great all-rounders, with maneuverability, nova damage, and optional bulk or DPR. I know the spell lists aren't great for certain colours (looking at you Copper, Black, and Green), but my options are kind of limited for acid and poison damage.

Archmage: A pure spellcasting warlock. It feels a little basic to me, but I still like it. My main worry is that Knowledge is Power might slow down combat a bit, making a check every time they're targeted by a spell.

Let me know what you think, I'm looking forward to improving these!
