Absolutely not spoiler free

Many things change; some things never do.

They released the hi-res images by @agarthanguide ! Huzzah!

Welcome back, Sam!

The game's customization isn't as robust as I'd hoped (at least in the demo) but you can still have fun with it. Maybe they'll let you combine hairstyles with fringe/bang options in the full game? Sourcing the patterns from the internet is more useful and fun than trying to use the built-in AI to generate anything. You can find these on Canvas (in-game character database) if you want to use them. My name is the same there (Octy in Boots)!

Here's Pike Trickfoot! Metal textures don't really translate well, but I sure tried!

Going Goblin Mode™ with Amélie, my Fairy Gob-Mother! At this point, I was getting more familiar with the pose library and experimenting with filters.

There was a preset outfit with fun colors (anyone remember the Cartoon Network color pallette challenge?) So I made the shoes, nails, headphones, shades, jewelry and hair match! Tons of fun.

LYCANTHROPIC SORCERER

You were born the descendant of a creature of the night. Perhaps they were a werewolf? Perhaps they were something else. Whatever they were, that blood was sufficiently diluted when it came to you for the curse not to affect you. Still, that doesn’t mean you don’t feel it.

D&D 5E spells in The Legend of Vox Machina (Episodes 4-5)

1. The Artificer Class

Yes, I know it’s coming soon. Yes I know it’s going to be Official, but right now it’s still in UA, so technically it’s still Unofficial…

For those that don’t know, Artificers are Master Inventors, channelling arcane powers to craft wondrous magical items.

The Class is super fun to play with, and just having a Class made to craft Magical Items is pretty darn cool if you ask me.

And depending on how kind your DM is, you could even implement the Crafting Magic Items Sections from Books like Xanathar’s Guide and have your Artificer be able to craft quite literally Legendary Magical Items.#

(Yes it might take a few tens of thousands of gold pieces and about a year or so to do it, but it’s possible, right?)

Anyways, you can find the current version of the Artificer Class and it’s Subclasses on D&D Beyond, you don’t need to purchase it right now, but I hope people take a look at the Eberron Setting Book whenever that comes out…

2. The Blood Hunter Class

Does this Class even need an introduction? You guys know Matt Mercer right?

Well, I guess if you don’t know, I should tell you.

Matt Mercer is the Dungeon Master for the ridiculously popular D&D Show Critical Role, and has been DMing for way longer than that.

So of course when he creates his own Class, people are gonna gobble it up.

The Bloodhunter is “A fanatical slayer that embraces dark knowledge to destroy evil”.

They use their own Blood to fuel their Magics, turning into ghosts, werewolves and creating flaming swords and weapons that spark lightning using just their blood.

I can’t describe to you how cool this Class is. You can be a freaking werewolves, or a ghost!

Anyways, you can find the current version of the Bloodhunter Class and its Subclasses on D&D Beyond and on the DMs Guild, where right now (at the time of writing), the Price is “Pay What You Want”, so you don’t have to go broke buying the Class, but it also lets you throw a bit of cash at everyone’s favourite Dungeon Master…

3. The Illrigger Class

Do you wanna praise Asmodeus while charging into the Blood War with a thousands Devils under your command!?

Well the Illrigger Class is for you!

Illriggers, also called Hell Knights (which is the coolest name for a Class!) are knights that work under Archdevils and even Asmodeus himself, using the powers they’re gifted to slay foes both good and evil.

The Class was created by Matt Colville from MCDM. I know I’ve already sung his praises before, and I’ll do it again here!

The Class has so many cool features. From being able to cast Illrigger-Specific Spells to the Illrigger’s own ‘¾ Casting’ that gives them more Spells than the average walking Paladin, to features that let you turn into a living beast of shadow, to a hell-mage commanding the Magics of Asmodeus, to a literal Devil Knight, as in actually turning into a giant freaking devil…

And if you need any more swaying into taking a look at the Class, I’d suggest watching 'The Chain of Acheron’, a D&D Show on both Twitch and YouTube where one of the Players is currently playing Judge, a Tiefling Illrigger of Asmodeus.

You can find the Illrigger Class on the MCDM Productions Website, and there’s even a Revised Version of the Illrigger that’s currently under Playtesting but soon to be released.

Oh, and back MCDM’s New Kickstarter, Kingdoms and Warfare, it’s cool, thought I’d mention it.

4. The Pugilist Class

Ever wanted to be a street fighter but thought Monk was a little too spiritual for you, and the Fighter was too bland?

Well the Pugilist is a Class that’s got so much swagger behind it, they made it their main feature just so they could punch you in the face with it!

“With nothing but their wits, will, and fists, pugilists lay it all on the table every time they’re in for a scrap.”

They’re boxers, street fighters, warriors of the pits and lovers of the tavern brawl.

If you want a class that can knock out the competition, play a Pugilist can become a Luchadore, or just someone who can literally knock out the competition…

The Pugilist Class was made by Benjamin Huffman and just got a big update, with a whole new subclass and now with a bunch of magic items too!

You can find it on the DMs Guild, and Emmet Byrne even created a character sheet specifically for use with the Pugilist class, so I guess there’s no reason not to!

5. The ‘Monster Tamer’ Subclass for the Ranger

Another brainchild of Matt Colville and MCDM Productions, the Monster Tamer is a Subclass for the Ranger that’s an improved version of the Beastmaster Ranger without all the noodles that can bust a Player’s brain included.

The Monster Tamer let’s you gain a Monster for a Pet!

And if you need any examples, simply look to The Chain of Acheron again, because Tom (not Tom) plays Copper, the Goblin Ranger and Monster Tamer with his Monster Companion, Bigcat, the Displacer Beast.

And while some of you might be saying “Woah woah woah, a Displacer Beast?”, trust me when I say it’s not overpowered.

Yes, it’s had some tweaking in game and I personally think it’s a cool subclass simply from the idea, but if you need anymore persuading at all, think about this: You could have a Purple Worm as a Pet if you can roll high enough…

Yep, if you roll high enough you could ride around on the back of a Purple Worm…

Anyways, you can find the Monster Tamer Subclass on the MCDM Productions Website, and Matt himself has said he’s working on a revision with even more stuff included!

Also, reminder, go back the Kingdoms and Warfare Kickstarter if you’re interested.

6. The ‘Cartographer’ Subclass for the Ranger

Created by Hannah Rose and Deven Rue (for those that might remember, Deven Rue was the cartographer of official Critical Role Dwendalian Empire map), the Cartographer is yet another Subclass for the Ranger, and this one’s all about making maps of the lands they travel through.

Cartographers are great because not only can they make really fancy maps, their Subclass Features are all based around it.

They never get lost so long as they’re somewhere that’s on their Magical Map, they can see a specific point on the Map as if they were standing there, and at higher levels they can just BAMF! themselves and the rest of the Party to anywhere on their very fancy well drawn map, working like a badass version of teleportation.
