This is a book designed to prop up the unsung hero of any fun story: mechanics that deliver on a class’ promised fantasy. The difference between a good story and a great one can often be whether your character’s actions live up to your imagination.
Nothing kills fun like creating a character to selflessly protect your friends, only to find that enemies all ignore you and focus on attacking your squishy friends instead.
Nothing is more frustrating than building a brilliant caster that should wield magic every bit as adaptable and creative as they are, only to find yourself casting the same safe and reliable cantrip every fight.
This book is here to fix that, containing a series of subclasses that each fulfill a very specific fantasy. Each one gives players clear tools that push their character playstyle in the same direction as the story they want to tell.
