[Cards] Chilling Grasp Arrow

"I told you to hold still, but you kept dodging, so I had to take harsh measures. Now, tell me where the chest is, and I'll let you go."

As a kid, one of the scariest things my older brother told me was that when ghosts come for you in the middle of the night, they will grab you by the feet and grasp you in a cold embrace. I checked the gap below my bed before laying down longer than I was proud of. Now you can scare your enemie...

[Cards] Boots of the Rain Runner

“I always loved running in the rain, but I never knew that it could feel this good.”

It’s December already! Man, this year is flying so fast that I think it can be wearing these magic boots. While I was finishing the November edition of the Blueprint, I remembered one of the coolest scenes of an anime I watched as a child and there was a character that could hide and move through wet surfaces. I decided to make this an ite...

Feedback on the November edition of the Blueprint

Hey everyone, the Blueprint will take a little longer to come out this month. The new version is taking a little longer than expected but it is for a good cause. More than 120 pages of content, including a new subclass, a new race, and a whole chapter covering the crafting materials. Stay tuned for the release in the next few days.

Taiyō

Crafting material, very rare

Legends say a long time ago, before even the oldest of the elves was born, a great war happened between the gods and a powerful entity from the Far Realm. In the final battle, tales say that the Sun God toked the sun itself and turned its rays into spears to use against his enemies. Deep beneath the ...

[Cards] Taiyō no nioi

“Do you want a taste? I call it, Taiyō no nioi. It means sun whiff. It’s harmless, you’ll see.”

What would happen if, to achieve a mighty power, you needed to expose yourself to great danger? Would you do it? This item was an idea from one of the players at my table that wanted to explore magic alcoholic drinks with a dose of Sake, and it was a delicious item to playtest.

Want to know more about Taiyō bas...

Wondrous item, uncommon
This small ceramic jug is made with a rough gemstone of Taiyō inside. The pottery process utilizes a special kind of kiln that uses radiant energy instead of fire.

[Cards] Death’s middle finger

“Death is sick of adventurers thinking they can cheat their way into the underworld. Not on my watch.”
It’s nice to think of things like Death and Fate as living entities, it reminds me of Sandman, which is one of my favorite pieces of literature. I truly believe that in a fantasy world where so many people can cheat death, She’ll be willing to give some selected followers the means to put the balance back in its place. ...

[Variant] Death’s middle finger

wand, legendary (requires attunement)
Some folks believe death is not a thing that happens, a twist of fate, or even the normal course of life. Death is an entity, as old and powerful as it can be. And in a world where so many things can cheat and make her job harder, I can’t believe that she would not be pissed.

[Cards] Ancestors Axe

“When I thought I saw all the brutalities those barbarians do in battle, I met this fellow that kills his enemies throwing the skulls of his ancestors on them. Mordenkainen's beard be damned.”
I find the Path of the Ancestral Guardian barbarians truly fascinating. When we think about fantasy and the cultures that inhabited a mystical setting like those we play on D&D, it’s very easy to let the mind travels a universe o...

Whitebark

Crafting material, rare
No matter how advanced the world becomes, there'll always be those who prefer the old ways. There are places in this plane that still hold a deep connection to the primal magic that created the land we live on.
Druidic circles built their camps around those places, adding yet more magic to already s...

[Cards] Seedsprout

“Even in the driest of deserts, whitebark can bloom healthy and strong. Walk with me, and you’ll always have a safe place to rest in the shade.”
This quarterstaff is made with a magical wood called Whitebark. The name says it all. When trees are within an area strong in primal magic, sometimes they absorb the magical properties in such a way they become covered with a white wooden shell. From then on, it will forever be co...

[Cards] Coin of Returning

“This is my lucky coin, I never lost a bet with it. What do you think of a quick game of cards, winner takes all?”
Sometimes what seems to be mundane items end up being small magical trinkets that can have a great impact when used with creativity and wits. This is one of them. It can be a charlatan’s lucky coin, a spy’s tracer, or even a “coin of endless lunch” for a smart owner in a crowded tavern.

[Cards] Emerald Caller

“Let’s face it. We all have our dark sides, but if you’re like me, you can’t be evil.”
Yesterday the world lost a fighter. When I learned about Jason David Frank's passing, I could not stop thinking about how he impacted a generation of kids who grew up wanting to be Rangers, do good, and help one another. I was one of those kids that cheered every time the notes of the Dragonzord song played on TV. I hope you're in pe...

[Cards] Dice of Bless and Distress

"I rolled the dice this morning. You won't like the result if you piss me off today."
Luck is one of the most critical components of most D&D games, but often we have to deal with it only as players. Many times the result of several planning sessions can crumble in front of a natural 1, but the characters don't see it as a misfortune but a critical failure. I wanted to bring the concept of a dice roll and play with luck from a charac...
