Here's the simple revision I've been working on for the Cosmic Dragons project! Aside from the obvious inclusion of Cosmic Dragon options, I've tweaked a bit of the flavor text (and added some where there was none—looking at you, 6th-Level feature), and made a couple small chan...

To start, I just want to say I am astounded and humbled by the growing support you all continue to share. Your encouragement is really the driving force behind all of this.

2019-09-27 15:01:21 +0000 UTC View PostSo I've wanted to, for a while, create a nature-inclined Warlock subclass via a patron from the Beastlands. Primary issue is that...there aren't really any Beastlands monsters in 5e. And certainly one could just say "my patron is a really powerful majestic lion from the Beastlands," but I want th...

Hello, friends! So I typically post all my new content on Reddit (r/DnD and r/UnearthedArcana) as well as on the Discord server.
