      RP monsters? Deals with Hags, Nothics dropping truth bombs and trading arcane secrets, phase spiders whispering riddles from the astral plane?

    If you ever wanna do a sequel to this video, you could talk about the Rain creature from Misplaced Monsters, a CR 5 Fey creature that can use their Horn to do AOE damage or heal any creature of their choice. Could be a decent support monster for the enemies and it could be adopted by the party.

    I love creatures that are just...mild to moderate annoyances 😂 I think they are some of my favourite!
    I literally made a joke that I should run a lore accurate campaign around yokai and include monsters like the Shirime (which has no face and likes to flash people it's butt to reveal its giant eye), or the "human faced dog" that just lurks on roads late at night and if you get close to it it just says "Leave me alone" and stuff like that. It's just so silly I think it would be so funny to have a campaign where sometimes, if you stay in a place with a dirty bathroom you'll encounter a creature that just...licks the filth.
    Obviously there would be plenty of creatures to fight or befriend, but just being startled or freaked out by something is good comedy to me

    This was such a fun video and would love to see more. Speaking of nerfs to cool monsters in 5e, I'd like to call out the Skull Lord. In older editions, this 3 headed skeletal undead general had an ability to magically rip the bones from an Adventurers body. The Skull with this ability could then spit the bone shards at an enemy (auto hitting like a magic missile if it was the creature they ripped the bone from) or use the bone shards to heal the skeletal undead summons. Think if the person who was trying to save from the bone rip fails by 5, would take a point of exhaustion. Really cool and spooky stuff. Thank you again for the fun video and hope you have a blessed day.

    If you want suggestions of cool monsters, Rope Golems are by far my favourite golem because there's so much room for description and cool combat in them. I don't *think* they've ever been official, though, so maybe it'll need saved for a later video.

    The sprite has a 25% chance of putting anything to sleep on each hit. As a Pact of the Chain familiar it can gain an extra attack each turn. Coffelock so you can Twin cast Haste and Mage Armor giving the thing yet another attack, +4AC(a full 20AC) and increased flight speed.
    Now your basic turns are an Eldritch Blast(or other spell) and 3 knock out shots from your invisible Sprite that moves way too fast to catch.

    Question would this work.
    Clown Class
    Hit Points:
    - Hit Dice: 1d8 per Clown level
    - Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Constitution modifier
    - Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + your Constitution modifier per Clown level after 1st
    Proficiencies:
    - Armor: Light armor
    - Weapons: Simple weapons
    - Tools: Disguise kit, one type of musical instrument of your choice
    - Saving Throws: Dexterity, Charisma
    - Skills: Choose three from Acrobatics, Deception, Performance, Sleight of Hand, and Stealth
    Equipment:
    - (a) a dagger or (b) any simple weapon
    - (a) a light crossbow and 20 bolts or (b) any simple weapon
    - (a) a dungeoneer's pack or (b) an entertainer's pack
    - Leather armor, two daggers, and a disguise kit
    Clown Features:
    1. Prankster
    - At 1st level, you gain proficiency in Sleight of Hand and Deception. If you already have proficiency in either of these skills, you can choose another skill from the Clown skill list.
    2. Jester's Performance
    - At 2nd level, you can use your action to distract or entertain creatures within 30 feet of you. Make a Performance check contested by the Wisdom (Insight) check of each creature within range. If you succeed, they are distracted, giving your allies advantage on their next attack against them. This ability can be used a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses after finishing a long rest.
    3. Practical Joker
    - At 3rd level, you gain the ability to perform practical jokes. You can use your action to attempt a practical joke on a creature within 5 feet of you. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become frightened or charmed (your choice) by your antics until the end of your next turn. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
    4. Ability Score Improvement
    - When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.
    5. Uncanny Dodge
    - Starting at 5th level, when an attacker that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the attack's damage against you.
    6. Evasion
    - At 7th level, your instinctive agility lets you dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as a blue dragon's lightning breath or a fireball spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.
    7. Master of Mirth
    - At 9th level, you can cast the “Tasha's hideous laughter” spell once per long rest without expending a spell slot.
    8. Sly Prankster
    - At 11th level, you gain the ability to perform a sly prank. You can use your action to attempt a sly prank on a creature within 5 feet of you. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become charmed by your antics until the end of your next turn. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
    9. Cunning Jester
    - At 13th level, you can use your action to distract or entertain creatures within 30 feet of you without needing to make a Performance check. You can do this a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses after finishing a short or long rest.
    10. Mischievous Mirage
    - At 15th level, you gain the ability to create an illusory duplicate of yourself as an action. This duplicate lasts for 1 minute or until you dismiss it as a bonus action. The duplicate appears in an unoccupied space within 30 feet of you and is indistinguishable from you. It acts independently, but it always obeys your commands. As a bonus action on your turn, you can switch places with the duplicate, and you can see through its eyes and hear what it hears until the start of your next turn. Once you create the duplicate, you can't do so again until you finish a short or long rest.
    11. Jester's Luck
    - At 17th level, when you make an ability check, an attack roll, or a saving throw, you can roll a d20 twice and choose which result you want to use. You can use this feature once, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest.
    12. Master Prankster
    - At 20th level, you gain the ability to unleash a masterful prank. You can use your action to attempt a masterful prank on a creature within 5 feet of you. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become charmed by your antics until you finish a short or long rest. Additionally, you can choose to make the target believe it has been affected by a “dominate person” spell until the end of your next turn. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
    This class combines the mischievousness of a clown with the performance abilities of a bard, making it a versatile support character with a knack for causing chaos on the battlefield.
    Note to self: Clowns are ALWAYS based off of charisma and dexterity.

    • @Cinderblocksally
      @Cinderblocksally  2 месяца назад

      It would need more features and more unique features that can work as class defining features very early. 1st level is just 2 skills. Second level is fine, doesn’t feel particularly unique or class defining. Every class in dnd has its definitive gameplay features by level 2. Practical joker and jesters performance both feel like they could just be alternative battle master maneuvers. And a lot of the higher level features feel random and not that good. Casting a first level spell once per day at 9th level isn’t a feature. Additionally, the prankster feature at 3rd level feels way to similar to the one you get at later levels. Kinda just reads like a reskinning of the same feature. And even the illusory duplicate, it doesn’t feel like it contributes to anything. It’s somewhere between an echo knight and a trickery cleric channel divinity, but has no spellcasting to combo with or decent attacks to use. Both of those duplicates are designed with their core class in mind. This feels like it’s kinda just in between but not for any logical reason tied to the rest of the class. Notice how most core class features build together into something, where subclasses help fill flavor.
      Find the core features, make them feel like core features, and then build out from there. Alternatively, take the ideas you like and make this into a subclass. Considering how many of these features are already on the rogue, maybe go with rogue.

      @@CaptaingameeI would strongly suggest trying to just build it from lvl 1 - 5 or 10 first before worrying about anything higher level. If it doesn’t work at level 5, that will impact everything after. I would also encourage you to spend some time looking at the core classes, not to take mechanics, but to see how they give and incorporate mechanics, specifically to make each class feel distinct and to encourage varied gameplay.
