Druid Circle: Circle of the Parasite

Hooo boy, it’s finally ready! I’ve been so excited to share this one with you guys. Once again in a long series of subclasses, this one is based out of the free to play space ninja simulator Warframe. A Druid Circle based on Nidus, this is the Circle of the Parasite. This one was so Continue reading

Aether Weapons

These have received rework and are now outdated! You can find the new version HERE! Aaand after that brief pause it’s back your regularly scheduled homebrew! Got a set of magical weapons today, all of the current aether powered, behemoth-slaying weapons from Dauntless! As soon as Dauntless came out in open beta and my friends 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

Ranger Archetype: Bladeslinger

Starting something I’ve wanted to do for a while. Got a brand “new” subclass for Rangers, the Bladeslinger! This is the first in a very long list of subclasses that were once prestige classes from 3.5. 3.5 had TONS of great content ripe for the converting and it’s been fun working on them.

Cleric Divine Domain: Madness Domain

New subclass for you, the Madness Domain for Clerics. I’ll say up front I can’t take full credit for this one as this is actually a rewrite of an existing madness domain my friend told me about. They wanted to use for their game so I was naturally curious. I took one look at the Continue reading

A Few Magical Items

Got a couple items for ya today. The first one is based of a card from Magic: the Gathering called Manakin and I thought it would make for a quirky little magical item. All it does is bring you random stuff in the morning. The other item was a cool off-hand mention during an episode Continue reading

A Pair of Feats

This first feat was the answer to something that super bugs me about 5th Edition: a lack of Metamagic for other spellcasters. I mean I’m glad that they kept it at all and toned it down a bit but why limit it sorcerers? Any caster could take Metamagic feats back in the day and it 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.
