Over on the MeWe Dungeons & Delvers group, Darcy (Dettmann Junior) asked about a storm sorcerer, specifically whether it would be better to reskin a cleric, druid, or both. I figured that, sure, you could do that, but then I whipped up a quick-and-dirty set of class features and talents.. It’s in a Google Doc […]

Some people have asked that we include another bloodline option for the sorcerer in our upcoming Appendix D supplement for Dungeons & Delvers.

3rd Edition’s sorcerer was billed as a spellcaster that had “no books, no mentors, no theories—just raw power that they direct at will”.

It turns out that while both attacks take an attack penalty, only the light weapon loses out on the damage bonus, so it […]

I know that I already talked about the sorcerer and warlock, but today’s Legend & Lore goes a bit more in depth, so I figure I could talk about that (and reiterate some previous points).As I said before the 3rd Edition version of the sorcerer did not go into much detail, even when a Dragon […]
There were some things I definately was not expecting during the keynote speech, least of all another playtest update that adds two new classes–the sorcerer and warlock–and an adventure. The good part is that it allows us to fiddle around with two alternative magic systems, on top of having something else to do besides select […]
