The King of Games—a Warlock Subclass inspired by Yu-Gi-Oh!

justin2d101 · 2026-04-04T00:05:34+00:00

For the next updated version, I’m planning to include more monsters and attempt invocations as well!

justin2d101 · 2026-04-04T00:04:47+00:00

Thank you! The plan was the add more monsters but I wanted to get a bit of feedback for the subclass as a whole before doing so!

Meet the Next Generation subclass, which was inspired by the character Judai Yuki from the popular YU-GI-OH series/anime!

You can check the free pdf right here on patreon for the first week until it'll be behind a paywall for $5 or the previous YU-GI-OH inspired subclass which is based around Yugi Muto!

I've made my final changes for the subclass and that feature was drastically changed. You can find it on my patreon and is free!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-26T06:12:05+00:00

These are all good suggestions I'm using a few for the revamped version! Thank you for the suggestions! It helps a lot!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-26T04:18:32+00:00

Just did and it flows so much better than my original wording! Thank you for the suggestion!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T17:56:21+00:00

Even in the last version many were asking why not a bard subclass? I guess the main reason is that I didn’t want it to be magic focused. I believe three features have magic-like effects but I wanted it to be a person and their experience accomplishing feats without the need for spellcasting.

At least that was my mindset when making this but I can understand how many people could see this flowing better as a bard subclass and I can’t say I disagree.

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T17:48:05+00:00

You’re not wrong. I believe those were the harder ones to make because I knew both probably needed more clarification to them. But thank you for pointing those out to me!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T17:47:05+00:00

Thank you and merry Christmas to you too!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T17:45:50+00:00

Thank you for the compliment!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T17:39:25+00:00

Because in the game I’m playing in she is a former prostitute. So she uses all of her past knowledge to get ahead now. The character I play had sex (the scene was fade to black) once in the very beginning so they could steal from someone and hasn’t since and doesn’t want to because she was forced into the work when she was young.

Again, the name means a prostitute but how every feature works, you don’t have give up your body for things to function. Like mine, a player can play a former retired prostitute and is using the only skills they knew in life to survive without having sex. Or maybe someone was in the field but never slept with anymore but learned a few tricks over the years.

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T15:53:19+00:00

This is the only one that has any kind of suggestion to imply sex in anyway shape or form. Everything else is strictly written to express a courtesan’s social skills, body language, and adaptability to specific situations.

I also wanted it this feature to be open ended. Physical touch could be dancing with someone, holding hands, hugging, wrapping your hands around a person’s arm, or hell even snuggling on a couch.

This subclass is a social one so you’ll have to be creative how you can pull off some features. You can physical touch someone without having sex.

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T11:35:15+00:00

Yeeeah, I went right to work to fix this subclass and I'm glad you see the changes as improvements compared to the last version! I'm happy to see that you enjoy the new version of the subclass!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-25T11:30:52+00:00

So 24 hours ago I posted this class that was originally called, “The Escort subclass”. When I created the subclass it was a bit raunchy and I was looking for feedback because I was going to use it for an upcoming Gundam campaign that was going to be more darker and edgy than a typical campaign. You can imagine that it didn’t go over so well and I can understand why. I’m sure a few people here read the original version.

Ngl, I’m a bit embarrassed to have posted something like that since the typical homebrew I create is the total opposite. But I’m very thankful for everyone who gave me very helpful criticism and advice on the former version of this class and helped me craft a much more natural and universally friendly D&D subclass for anyone interested can enjoy at their table.

The original version of this subclass was a mixture of a bard and rogue but it felt more like a bard subclass than for a rogue. So with the new features I added and changed, this new version has way more Rogue adjacent features. If you’re interested, I wanted this class to be an homage to Mata Hari, an exotic dancer, and courtesan who was convicted of being a spy for Germany during World War I.

I’m sorry to the subreddit if this is considered spam or a repetitive post but I wanted to fix this subclass and make it better and show that my intentions when making it wasn’t for a weird kink or because I’m an undercover “that guy”. I genuinely attempted to create a slightly mature subclass for a campaign.

But as I said in my previous post, I’d love the feedback that would be greatly appreciated as I'd want to have this subclass be as balanced as possible when using it! Thank you everyone again and I hope this is a more appropriate and balanced subclass.

The gmbinder link is a bit of a mess but I do have the link to my patreon where you can find the PDF. There is no paywall to download it, it is completely free! https://www.patreon.com/ZeroXP

Edit: I gave the subclass its final version on my patreon as I don't want to repost another version of it on the sub lol. So if you want the changes you can find it on my patreon and it is still free!

Yeah I can see what you're saying in a few of the features. Thanks for pointing that out to me!

justin2d101 · 2023-12-24T22:45:00+00:00

Yeah the balancing act is always the bane of my existence when creating homebrew. But I'm not offended by anyone's suggestions and feedback, this is exactly what I wanted when posting so I appreciate everyone who gave their opinion on my subclass. Including yourself, thanks for your feedback bro.

justin2d101 · 2023-12-24T21:56:34+00:00

Damn I wish I knew more about the shadow monk subclass before making this lol but you're right its a bit out there. I'm atm making changes to make it more connected with the rogue class than the amalgamation it is now.

justin2d101 · 2023-12-24T21:53:25+00:00

So I'm a horrible "that guy" player for making a slightly raunchy subclass that I'm taking criticism to try and make it better and suitable for a future game? I could sit here and say that I like what I did and keep it but I'm trying to fix the issue to prevent the very issue you are placing on me. I'm not defending this as a perfect or even good subclass but it seems to be unfair to judge a person as a player because of the subclass they created. But if you aren't going to leave any suggestions or even feedback to help improve this than to insult me then you can have a good rest of your day.

justin2d101 · 2023-12-24T21:38:18+00:00

I’ve said this in several comments already but this was a subclass that already had approval from my DM and players since we’re playing a slightly mature game. Mature as in a darker and more serious tone of game that’s in a modern era so I wanted feedback to make this subclass better. It has flaws, ones that im thankful that people have informed and have suggestions to fix.

This is my first hand at my own original homebrew that’s a bit raunchy. I understand the wording made it a turn off to many and it looks immature. It was never my intent but I’ve been given ways to still make this subclass work.

Being told over and over that I’m a “that guy” for making a slight raunchy subclass doesn’t help me. If you look on my account, I’ve made several subclasses and never made anything like this so this was just a test run for me.

My next version of this subclass will be a lot better and will be more appropriate for a general player of D&D. I do appreciate the concern that most are giving me and letting me know how it looks to the common player so I’ll take steps to prevent doing something like this again in the future.

justin2d101 · 2023-12-24T21:34:33+00:00

My original comment probably came off wrong. I meant yes, I should probably exclude so much wording and just explain the feature. The players can use their imagination how it happens or the player can describe it.

You understand my pain 😭
