Who doesn't love subclasses in 5e? We sure do! That's why we're including 12 of them in our book - one for each base class plus even more for our base class Psion. Learn about why we're making the choices we did - strength based rogue, frontline melee druids, and other powerful subclasses for every Dungeons and Dragons class!

Get Heroforge Custom minis: https://www.heroforge.com A big part of a game master's job is presenting the world to their players in ways that make it inviting, engaging, and exciting.
