#subclass
Welcoming in the second month of my patreon with my first subclass, the Glutton patron for the Warlock class. Gluttons are greedy beings who will stop at nothing to satisfy their cravings, and those unfortunate enough to make pacts with them are given a taste of their insatiable hunger. I’d be really interested to hear your thoughts if you use this subclass in your home games!
Remember, the high quality PDF version of this subclass is avaliable on my patron-only dropbox alongside a bunch of other homebrew stuff (including more Warlock subclasses). Supporting me there gives you access to loads of exclusive stuff, and really helps to support me. You can find my patreon here.
Check this out!

I’ve always thought trapping people in paintings was cool but it was always a villain thing to do. Now your players can be the interesting one who stories are written about
Oath of the Cook
Paladin Subclass
- Cook with passion
- Take time to eat
- Honor the food
- Everyone has the right to eat
At level 3, you gain proficiency with cooking utils.
Oath spells:
3. Burning Hands, Purify Food and Drink
5. Locate Animals or Plants, Protection from Poison
9. Create Food and Water, Plant Growth
13. Fabricate, Locate Creature
17. Creation, Mass Cure Wounds
Level 3:
Channel Divinity “Bountiful Meal”: You can use your Channel Divinity to cook a bountiful meal. You cook for 10 minutes. After that, up to six creatures can eat and drink for one hour. When the hour has passed, the creatures are cured of one poison or disease affecting them and they gain Temporary Hit Points equal to your Paladin Level.
Channel Divinity “Boil ‘em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew!”: As an action, you show your holy symbol and for the following three rounds, these effects apply one for each round until the end of your next turn:
1. Round: All enemies that start their turn in a 30 feet radius and touch a body of water, must succeed on a Constitution Saving Throw, taking 4d6 fire damage or half as much on a success.
2. Round: All enemies in a 30 feet radius are vulnerable to bludgeoning damage until the end of your next turn.
3. Round: All enemies in a 30 feet radius must succeed on a Dexterity Saving Throw or are restrained until the end of you next turn.
Level 7:
Aura of Lusciousness: All friendly creatures in a 10 feet radius around you regain your Paladin Level plus your Proficiency Bonus as Temporary Hit Points after a short rest, provided that they ate a good meal. As long as they stay in this radius with full Hit Points, they add your Charisma Modifier to their attack rolls. At level 18, the radius increases to 30 feet.
Level 15:
You always gain the maximum possible Hit Points from your Hit Dice after a short rest, provided that you ate a good meal.
Level 20:
Once between each long rest, you can use your action to take the form of the ultimate cook for one minute:
- You can cast “Burning Hands” as a 1. Level Spell as a bonus action each round without using a spell slot and without components.
- Your Divine Smite attacks deal fire damage instead of radiant.
- You and each friendly creature in a 10 feet radius regain 2d4+2 Hit Points at the start of your turn.
My wife is kinda the food paladin, so I came up with this subclass for her. Might be OP, let me know
Edit: Balanced the Channel Divinity.
Edit: Added a second Channel Divinity.
ARCANE HERESY— a wizard subclass for the magicians who seek the power of the gods not through worship, but through study. I personally have a lot of fun with characters that have a complex relationship with religion and wanted to make a subclass to embody a more ambitious, selfish wizard, taking the power of divinity as their own. i hope you enjoy it and if you end up using it show me the heretics you make!
feedback is always welcome and if you enjoy my ko-fi is here.

SUNDANCER— this is actually a remake of the first thing i ever homebrewed over a year ago! introducing Sundancers— a ranger based around photosynthesis and alignment with the sun. Even though these are flavored towards sunlight, I think the concept is equally cool if you decide to flavor it towards moonlight or another source of light!
edit: as usual, this is made for revised ranger! also revised the wording on some things for more clarity!

So, I deliver on my promise of a homebrew Druid subclass. I pulled inspiration from the Greek God Dionysus, also known as the God of the Vine.
This is my first shot at a Druid subclass and would love to try more.

DRACONIC PATRON— so this has been in my gmbinder for like, a month, and i’ve finally tightened it up and posted it! special thanks to my discord group for the feedback and @dragonborn-homebrew for aiding me with some of the invocations! i’m planning on making a scaled tiefling warlock whose patron is her adopted father :)
feedback is always welcome and if you enjoy my ko-fi is here.

Unearthed Arcana: A trio of Subclasses: Drunken Master Monk, Redemption Paladin, Monster Slayer Ranger

SANGUINE SORCERY— hey y’all! i’m here with a pretty gruesome sorcerer subclass that’s actually a revamp of one of the first subclasses i ever posted! it’s pretty damage and resource management heavy and is actually something i’m also playing at the moment so it’s likely going to be subject to some tweaks and changes. i included a few homebrew spells however, i think the usage of an additional spell list and flavoring of those spells really works for a whole blood manipulation angle. i hope you enjoy the concept of playing a body-manipulating blood sorcerer!
edit: typos fixed, range added to blood sense, and stipulations added to crimson manipulations.
feedback is always welcome and if you enjoy my ko-fi is here.

CIRCLE OF THE HARVEST — hey! here’s my take on a spooky Halloween themed druid. I had a lot of fun doing this and i think it’s a pretty balanced take on a melee druid! i also hope y’all enjoy the scythe homebrew, i think it’s something a lot of people have done but i rather like my take on it.

Here is a commission for @markthe3 who requested a bloody, assassin-themed subclass for those that pledge themselves to Bhaal. I had a lot of fun with it and liked it so much that I even added a special pact boon and might be designing a character for this archetype myself!

Hey all! Been a bit. Progress on greater aspirations has been slow going. I’ve really been struggling with my mental health lately and it’s been difficult to work on anything. But I’m doing better now, so lets have a look at something I’ve been meaning to do for a long time.
I think it was a couple years ago that I did a subclass based on the Warframe Chroma. At the time, I was pretty happy with it overall. But as many people quickly pointed out, I left out acid as an element. Originally this was done very deliberately and I had no intention of changing it, reason being Chroma only has 4 elements and acid isn’t one of them. Now, had I made the subclass exclusively as part of a Warframe themed setting or supplement, that would have been fine and justifiable, but I made it for D&D as a whole and specifically linked it to the chromatic dragons, of which there are five not four. I’ve since pulled my head of of my ass and realized how stupid I was being. I’ve always been a stickler for source accuracy but I admit I can go too far sometimes, and my work can suffer for it. It’s a balancing act for sure, and one I’m still learning to deal with.
So what’s actually changed with this version? Well, I basically rewrote the whole thing from scratch so, uh, everything. Chroma’s had a few major changes since the original brew so I had quite a bit to redo and everything else just needed reworded to be clearer. Some of my early stuff is kinda janky so eventually I’d like to redo all of my old work. Some of them desperatelyneed it…
Honestly I had a really hard time formatting this one. Finding a suitable theme was difficult, the art was belligerent, and things didn’t want to line up right. But I got it in the end and overall I’m pretty satisfied with it. I also kept bouncing back and forth between names for it, as you might pick up from the Sneak Peak. Path of the Dragon has a better feel and rolls off the tongue better but the subclass exclusively deals with the chromatics so I didn’t want the name to mislead.
Funny story, when I was brainstorming ways to rework this subclass, I thought about extending it to all dragons and incorporating elements from Fizban’s but honestly that would be WAY more work than I care to do right now and at that point it wouldn’t be Chroma anymore. I have to draw the line somewhere, but hey, something for the future. Anyway, hope y'all like the rework.

Hey all! Got a couple of creepy class options for you, and just in time for Halloween! So, loxodon in the room, this isn’t the thing I was teasing in my last blog post. That monstrosity of a project still needs a TON more work before its ready, and I’ve had these two subclass ideas kicking around in the ol’ brain cage for a while so I thought I’d throw them together. Plus they’re more spooky season appropriate in my opinion.
Anyway, what are these things? Well, it’s a couple of warlock patrons based on some creepy cryptids that I love, one modern, the other less so. The first is Long Horse, a creation of Trevor Henderson, the dude who made Siren Head, Cartoon Cat, and a whole bunch of other great creatures. Long Horse is a harbinger of disaster, sort of like Mothman, but it dedicates itself to warning humanity to keep us safe. It’s curious, friendly, smells of cinnamon, and I love it.
The second is a little more recognizable, the Wendigo. Classic creature from Algonquin (I believe) mythology who has an unending hunger for flesh and a heart of ice. In general it’s meant to be a warning against selfishness and breaking social taboos like murder and cannibalism (a gross oversimplification I realize) so I took that concept and sort of ran with it. Not sure I’m completely happy with it but we’ll see how it shakes out. I’m already thinking about a character for each so hopefully playtesting will be sooner rather than later.
Anyway, despite not being my usual huge special spooky project, I still hope y'all like what I put together. Stay safe out there and don’t forget to love each other.

Now that all the crazyness of the last week is finally over, let’s get back to the brews, shall we? I started putting together a cleric domain based on the Adeptus Mechanicus from Warhammer 40K for a campaign I’m playing in but I ran out of time so I had to scrap the character. Its a weird conversion mix of stuff from the Wrath & Glory RPG, the 40K wargame, and Warhammer 40K: Mechanicus so there’s a lot to it. I gotta say though, I’m SUPER proud of this one. Really nailed the aesthetic I think. Now I absolutely love the Adeptus Mechanicus so working on this was a real treat and I got to bring in a lot mechanics from different parts of the 40K universe and give them my own spin. And, I actually plan to making a whole class based on the AdMech so this is kind of a test run for a lot of the mechanics I plan to use for that massive project. Anyway, hope you guys enjoy this crazy thing.

LYCANTHROPIC SORCERER
You were born the descendant of a creature of the night. Perhaps they were a werewolf? Perhaps they were something else. Whatever they were, that blood was sufficiently diluted when it came to you for the curse not to affect you. Still, that doesn’t mean you don’t feel it.
Open the image in new tab for better quality. Have fun playing, and feedback is much appreciated! If you like what I do, consider buying me a coffee!

Subclass: Circle of the Wolf
Many know lycanthropy only as a curse, the result of a failed deal with witches, a horrifying ailment that results only in bloodthirst or death. But others seek favor with nature in the identity of Wolf-druids, powerful forces of the natural world that shape their bodies to become that of a wolf… or someting resembling a wolf, but not entirely natural, anyway. Follow the twists and turns of the path of the wolf, and see where it might take you.

Subclass: The Corvid
Some - but not all - rogues are indeed the murderous, greedy creatures generaly stereotyping make them out to be. But some would rather align themselves with the ebb and flow of life, using their ability to form this energy to their will to heal others or do good. This means they are also able to hit where it hurts, however, making rogues that follow the way of the Corvid doubly dangerous… and doubly useful.

Homebrew subclass D&D 5e : Veil Dancer - Ranger
I’ve been working on many homebrew subclasses for a while, and I wanted to do artwork for them. The idea of a illusory ranger related to mirage has been one I’ve been toying around for a while, and I’m very happy with the result. Also, I’m happy with the design, and I think yall filthy monster fuckers will too…

Homebrew subclass D&D 5e : Mecha Knight - Artificer
I’ve been working on many homebrew subclasses for a while, and I wanted to do artwork for them.
I was not very hyped by the Armorer subclass. I was seeking the fantasy of an exo-armor, not a clanky RDJ fanboy redux… So I made this mixture of a homebrew and a fix to live the fantasy that it wasn’t selling for me. It’s sad that it’s a redondant but we use it in my games ^^

Homebrew subclass D&D 5e : College of Requiem - Bard
I’ve been working on many homebrew subclasses for a while, and I wanted to do artwork for them. Bards always carried this joyful and colorful identity, but I wanted to express another side of art, and give to Bards a darker side, without making it evil per say. Also, I mean… really, given the name of the spell, I needed a way to make Danse Macabre accessible to bards :D
For the art, I wanted Versaille meets widow, with the face of Glenn Close.

Homebrew subclass D&D 5e : Oath of Truth - Paladin
I’ve been working on many homebrew subclasses for a while, and I wanted to do artwork for them. For the Oath of Truth, I wanted a half-elf that has both the codes of the holy knight and the investigator. That kind of handsome badassery that detectives have in the trope.

Homebrew subclass D&D 5e : Winter Domain - Cleric
I’ve been working on many homebrew subclasses for a while, and I wanted to do artwork for them. For the Winter Domain, I wanted more than a simple “ice cleric”. I wanted someone who fight winter because it embraces winter as a season of fight. Fight for survival, fight for life.
For the artwork, I used Inuit, Lapon and Ainu references.
