Warlock Otherworldly Patron: Io the Wisp

So close to having all classes covered! This is Io, one of the Fundamentals from DOTA 2, as a patron. Io isn’t one of the more offensive heroes I guess but I like the idea of a more support based warlock. Continue reading

Awakener

It’s finally done! Requested by one of my lovely patrons, I have had an absolute blast working on this really interesting class. This is based on the awakeners from Brandon Sanderson’s Warbreaker novel who use their magical breath to bring objects to life. As per my usual modus operandi, I tried to stay as close Continue reading

Monastic Tradition: Way of the Mountain

Got another Warframe conversion today. This time we got Atlas, our own monolithic mountain from space. Figured he would be a good fit for monk since mountains are traditionally sort of at least monk-adjacent and the obvious Avatar style earth bending. Lot of fun with it regardless. Continue reading

Transformation Cog 2018

Hey all! This one kind of came out of nowhere. Had a spur of the moment idea for a friends campaign and wanted to make this for my character. For those who can’t tell just by the title, this thing is one giant transformers reference. In universe, its the organ that allows Cybertronians to scan Continue reading

Barbarian Primal Path: Path of the Chromatic Dragon 2018

THIS SUBCLASS IS OUTDATED! You can find a new version HERE! Chroma, the elemental master enters the fray! Yes, we got another Warframe conversion and of one of my other favorites frames, Chroma! It took a while to really nail the feel of this one and in-game Chroma is pretty mechanic heavy so it was Continue reading

Barbarian Primal Path: Firestorm Berserker

Have another 3.5 conversion today. Been tinkering with this one for a while. Since raging doesn’t work the way it use to, I had to do some mad tweaking to get the firestorm rage to work within 5e. I like to think I got it. Continue reading

Roguish Archetype: Shadowdancer

It’s about time everyone’s favorite backstabber got some love. Another 3.5 conversion, this is the Shadowdancer for rogues. I always thought shadow magic and the like was super cool and its nice to see it creep its way into 5th ed in an official capacity. Continue reading

Fighter Martial Archetype: Knight Protector

Got a Fighter archetype for y’all today. Another 3.5 conversion, this is the Knight Protector! While most default to a paladin for the classic “knight in shining armor”, this offers a non-diety based alternative. Continue reading

Wizard Arcane Tradition: Loremaster

This is the Loremaster Wizard Tradition. Another 3.5 conversion that I thought would fit wizards pretty well since they’re intelligence based and tend to know a lot about a given subject. I could see an archaeologist type character running this, out to adventure to explore ancient ruins and find lost knowledge. Might have to do Continue reading

Bard College: College of Mourning

Here’s another 3.5 conversion! This one is super intriguing to me as a lover of bards and dead things, sort of a social paladin as far as their interaction with undead. I can’t help but be reminded of Mourner class from the Unhallowed game system who is pretty similar in both flavor and function. Hmm, Continue reading

About Me

Welcome to the Foundry! I’m Sam Johnson. I run the place.
I’ve been playing TTRPGs for over a decade and creating content for them for about half that time. While I primarily make content for 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons, I hope to expand to other systems in the future. I’m a firm believer in making this hobby a place where all are welcome, supporting smaller creators, and in broadening one’s horizons by trying other RPGs whenever possible. There are thousands of games from talented people of all types that deserve more love, and I hope to shine a light on some hidden gems when I find them.
