Reliquarium (Player Classes)

RELIQUARIUM is a treasury of homebrewed player classes that are, as of yet, still in the playtesting phase, and as such will be frequently updated. I'm hoping to hear from you about your thoughts and feelings about these new class concepts!

RELIQUARIUM currently contains:

-The Bodyguard (CONSTITUTION), a martial class that chooses a PC or NPC to protect and then gains bonuses based on their protection. This includes five Bodyguard subclasses:

• Group Mom (protect and nurture!)

• Hired Sword (protect, but for the highest bidder!)

• Battle Beast (wear your smaller friends like a hat!)

• Divine Bond (fight for the light)

• Dark Ties (fight for the dark)

-The Gladiator (STRENGTH/CHARISMA), a martial class that treats battle like a performance and gains benefits from Charisma, including three Subclasses:

• Retiarus (nets!)

• Cestus (boxing and prizefighting)

• Gladius (good old-fashioned stabbing)

-The Hedge Wizard (WISDOM), a class that takes cantrips to a whole new level, including four subclasses:

• Sanguine (peppy and energetic magics!)

• Phlegmatic (logical and utilitarian magics)

• Choleric (rebellious and unusual magics)

• Melancholic (sad and morose magics)

-And dozens of cantrips, such as Shenanigan, Doohickey, Wallop, Hootenanny, and Ope.

-The Juggernaut (STRENGTH), a martial class all about pushing, throwing, and wrestling your opponent, including two subclasses:

• Vanguard (throwing people) 

• Sentinel (wrestling people)

-The Soothsayer (INTELLIGENCE), a caster that reads the patterns and omens in their surroundings to tell the future. Comes with two subclasses:

• The Cards (draw from a pack of fortune telling cards in battle to produce random effects)

• Somatomancy (read your opponent's body language to learn about them)

• Superstition (good luck for you; bad luck for the baddies!)
