What if instead you could actually dig up dinosaur bones… and resurrect them?! This homebrew class lets you pick from the Plunderer, Lore Master, or “dead raising Paleontologist” specializations for a combination of scholar, explorer, fighter, and maybe a touch of necromancy. ArchaeologistĪrchaeologist is a background that you can pick for your character currently in 5E, but it hasn’t added much to my character personally besides a half-decent argument for advantage on a few rolls. Princess varieties include Fairy Tale, Warrior, and Noble and, honestly, all make me wish I’d known about this homebrew before I’d made any of my last three D&D characters. Combining the musically powered, animal befriending charm you would expect of a Disney princess, and the diplomacy and leadership of Leia (also technically a Disney princess), this class allows for you to make a character with poise and elegance and who definitely doesn’t need to be rescued. PrincessĬreated by Reddit user impersonater, the Princess class is a little different from any I’ve seen before. If you’re looking to bring a little something special to your campaign, these classes and subclasses might just hit the bulls-eye. Sure, the book’s guidelines are wonderful and they’re there for a reason, but house rules and specialty characters, weapons, and locations always make the game feel more fleshed out and unique.

I love a well-implemented homebrew element in my tabletop games. But don’t you sometimes wish you could play something a little more out there?

The standard D&D classes are fine I’d even call them great.
