#dnd 5e subclasses

I have returned from the dead with a Ranger Subclass. I got into a debate on Rangers with a friend and while i yield that its like a “Park Ranger” i think the ranged weapon aspect deserves more love. Thus the Sniper XD. Hope you all enjoy.

Subclasses and spells and shiz, oh my!

*Mycelium Detonation and Beyond Mortis noted below so please go ahead and keep reading*

I am surprised (and slightly dissapointed) Circle of Spores lets you turn into undead monsters, Dammit WotC, LET ME TURN INTO A NIGHTWALKER!!! Now thats out of my system, please tell me what you think? I may do another version if needed. Thank youuu

-Beyond Mortis-

School of Magic: 4th-level Necromancy

Casting Time: 1 Action

Range: 60 Feet

Duration: 1 Minute

Components: Verbal, Somatic, Material (An insect shell encased within amber)

Classes: Druid, Ranger, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard

You choose a corpse within range (provided it has flesh) and increase its rate of decomposition to when infestation of the flesh occurs. Doing so causes a ‘Swarm of Insects’ (Stat block in the Monster Manual) to emerge in a space adjacent to the corpse. The Swarm is friendly to you and your allies, attacks creatures that are not allied with you and acts on your initiative. Alternatively, you may choose to cast the spell on a creature of your choosing in which they make a Constitution saving throw (All creatures outside of undead make this save with advantage). On a failed save, the swarm tears free from their skin; dealing 4d6 piercing damage. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage and a Swarm does not spawn. The spell ends early if the swarm dies or you fall unconscious. When the spell ends after a minute, the swarm crumbles and dissipates into grey dust.

AT HIGHER LEVELS: You may choose additional targets for the spell for every spell slot above 4th-level. These can be a mix of corpses and creatures or can target a singular creature; in which they make a separate Constitution Saving Throw for each time you target them with the spell. These can be a mix of Corpses and Creatures or can target a singular creature; in which they make a separate Constitution Saving Throw for each time you target them with the spell.

-Mycelium Detonation-

School of Magic: 5th-level Necromancy

Casting Time: 1 Action

Range: 60 Feet

Duration: Instantaneous

Components: Verbal, Somatic, Material (A pouch of seeds and 50 gold’s worth of sulphur)

Classes: Druid, Ranger, Wizard, Warlock

You target a creature within range, if the creature is missing any of its Hit Points, they become infected with strange fungal growths from their wounds. The fungi releases spores that combust into acidic gas in a 15-foot radius from the targeted creature. All creatures within the affected area (Including the targeted creature) must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creatures suffer acidic burns across their body as they take 7d10 acid damage or half on a successful save. If the Target Creature is reduced to 0 Hit Points because of this Spell, these fungal spores embed themselves into any Creatures within 15 Feet of the Dead Creature. Each Creature within 15 Feet of the Dead Creature must succeed on a Constitution Saving Throw or have the same fungal growths that killed the Initial target Creature begin to sprout from their wounds. These new spores grow fungi that detonate again in a 15-Foot-Radius centred on the New Target Creature, dealing 7d10 Acid damage to those caught in the Radius that fail a Dexterity Saving Throw, or half as much Damage on a successful save. These fungal growths do not grow on to any additional Creatures if the New Target Creature is also reduced to 0 Hit Points.

AT HIGHER LEVELS:

The damage dealt by the first detonation from the spores increases by an additional 1d10 for every spell slot above 6th-level.

Day 4 is on time y’all B-) This time i made the poor decision to use my second use of Barbarian. So no more Barb coming from me this month.

This subclass plays gently with some Necromancy, mostly raising gran gran to get some saving throw advantages. You get a Familial Thrall when you rage, who fights alongside you and can grant you and your allies some fun bonuses, or output additional damage. A little mix and matchy so you can play it differently a few times if you so choose. We’re here for a fun time, not to make mommas bones proud of us XD

Day 5 everyone! Today we went to play with Warlock, one of my favorite classes to brew. I think the Warlock needs more love XD. The prompt was Big Hits / Crits, so I took that in the Big Hits direction.

Before I get into some breakdown, I like my homebrew warlock classes to give the spells rather than provide the option to take them, so that is why you only see one spell on the expanded list, but you automatically learn it.

The class is designed around two things, the Hex spell and utilizing resources to output high damage for a high cost. The Hex spell has always been somewhat underwhelming for me, is it good? absolutely, but using it never feels as good as I’d like for a concentration spell. Is this all personal? yes. Regardless, as you level in this class your Hex spell no longer requires concentration, and deals an additional D6 when activated by attacks.

The second major feature is Apocalypse, a nice big fireball like feature that overcomes resistances and immunity. It gets stronger, adding damage for each Warlock Level, giving reason to keep gaining levels in the class. It can only be used once a long rest, unless your willing to sacrifice one of your spell slots.

The subclass also comes with a couple Eldritch Invocations, because whats a homebrew warlock without a few new invocations designed just for them? Hope that you all enjoy this one!

Posting day 3 on day 3. I have caught back up B-) This time for Janbrewery we have a fighter subclass. This is an underground fighter who brings some cheap tricks into the fight. The Subclass has a handful of strong “Tricks” that they can use to output high damage, debilitate the enemy, or control the battlefield. The fighter gains additional Tricks as they level, and can use them more frequently as well.

The subclass also has some magical tattoos to use to grant benefits that can be switched out, and the ability to drop a good old Darkness spell once a day.

Hope you all enjoy this one, martial classes are not my strongest brews XD

Catching up on Janbrerery, Day 2, This time for Barbarian! Having some fun with damage mitigation. The walking castle line was the inspiration here. The idea being that you provide protection around you for your allies, making it dangerous for AOE abilities but hey, what wouldn’t we all do for an extra +2 to our AC?

The abilities are designed around mitigating damage further for the Barbarian, and covering your allies, ending in you making sure that the enemy is focused on you, only you, and not the warlock crying on their last spell slot in the corner. Or at the very least making enemies run away in fear. Hope y’all enjoy this one, its short sweet, and lets you say “no, your sneak attack damage means nothing to me” to an enemy rogue.
