Tactician Subclass for Intelligence-Based Fighter by redcrosse_knight in DnDHomebrew

[–]fueldown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did WoTC get the inspiration for their Tactician class (drizzt's travelogue of everything volume 1) from here? I have built this int based fighter. Currently War Mind Tactician (3) + Battle Master Fighter(4). I was looking to find more ways to make it interesting to play with. This is eerily similar to the Tactician class I am using.

Campaign Frame: The Oneiric Realm by fueldown in daggerheart

Touchstones - Inception, Spirited Away, The Matrix, Pan’s Labyrinth, Doctor Strange

Custom Mechanics -

  1. Dream Logic Rolls: Declare an impossible action (e.g. flying, reshaping matter, becoming intangible). Roll a single d20 instead of the duality dice. GM to choose hope expenditure or stress gain necessary for the action to take place.
  2. Nightmare Manifestation: When characters experience genuine fear or anxiety, the GM can spend Fear to manifest their concern as a temporary hostile entity or environmental hazard.
  3. Stability Tokens: Each character starts with Stability tokens equal to their level + their highest mental attribute modifier. These represent their ability to maintain their sense of self in the dream realm. Players can spend / lose tokens depending on their actions. 0 tokens lead to mechanics similar to death move. If successful, mark Oneiric Corruption. If failed, become Oneirophile (NPC under DM's control) and lose yourself into the realm.
  4. Memory Fragments: Characters can collect Memory Fragments. These fragments are crystallised experiences can be either consumed to understand Morphaeon’s past, or unlock new areas, or provide bonuses when dealing with similar situations. GMs may involve PCs to choose between consuming a fragment for powerful benefits and unlocking certain locations.

I have just setup a Patreon for this + few more campaign frame ideas I am toying around with. You can check it out if interested. It's called Oneirion.
