Subclasseptember Day 7: Fey

The College of Jest - Homebrew Bard Subclass

When I made the Subclasseptember list for this year (with permission from @nite0304, who made last year's), I wanted to ensure that each entry had multiple potential avenues to explore. For instance, Fey here can refer to fairies, as it is often used in D&D - but it can also refer to more general childness, a happy disposition, or the Scottish definition of "at the point of death."

From everyone else's expressions, it's clear that the Jester here has just told an incredible joke.

Subclasseptember 2023, Day 18 - Weavebreaker Wizard

"FUCK you!" *casts Super-Counterspell*

This one's a pretty particular niche, the idea of an anti-wizard Wizard. It kind of ended up being a sidegrade to the War Magic Wizard, in a way.

Day 5: Dragon

I love deep dragons and thought it was about time they got their own dragonborn variant.

Subclasseptember 2023 - Prompt List

It's really been a year since then? How time flies.

Made by yours truly. I can't imagine anyone will try any of the additional challenges at the bottom; I don't plan on doing anything other than a subclass for each day. But you never know! If anyone out there feels inspired by one of these prompts, why not give it a try?

Thank all of you for 3k followers! Let's see this community grow even more!

Subclasseptember Day 22: Monster

The Visionary - Homebrew Warlock Subclass

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If so, then you simply must feast your eyes on this.

A warlock subclass that goes all out into the funny laser beam attack. It also draws from the Hexblade in that it enhances a certain Pact Boon, but isn't particularly reliant on it either way.

It's not lost on me that this is basically giving Maneuvers to Warlock, but between the other upgrades, the long rest recovery, and the being an entire spellcaster, you shouldn't be left too hungry for things to do.

Subclasseptember 2023, Day 7 - Circle of the Courts

I do love the Feywild, the whole contrast of Summer and Winter, the weird social chess-playing, its a lot of fun.

This one is...a tricky one. An attempt at a sort-of social Druid and a specialised blaster, and I'm not sure it does incredibly at both.

Subclasseptember Day 4: Crystal

The Prismatic Domain - Homebrew Cleric Subclass

Put your spells into crystals to buff them - but you have to choose how many and which ones you want to use beforehand. Choose wisely.

Is this just Vancian Casting in a trenchcoat? Yes. You also get six flavors of blasting spells at level 6 because rainbows are awesome, actually.

Real talk though. Why is Prismatic Wall not concentration? You have seven flavors of nonsense to break through - some of which are, by RAW, technically impossible to destroy, because the required damage types don't have spells that can damage objects. You really need to concentrate on something else while doing that?

Subclasseptember 2023, Day 13 - College of Omens Bard

The End is Nigh!

The theme here might be a smidge tenuous, but omens are associated with danger, right?

I'll be real, the idea of giving your enemies inspiration was a neat idea I had as a potential source of debuffs. To counteract it, also gave the Bard extra inspirations.

The other abilities were more thematic, with the last one in particular having the mental image of an angel floating while singing about death.
