The Essentials: Sidekicks Expanded

ADD TO WISHLIST >

With its latest update, The Essentials: Sidekicks Expanded is bursting with new sidekicks for your 1 on 1 game of D&D. 9 sidekick types, each with their own unique/named sidekicks, complete with backstories, personality traits, and stat-blocks at levels 1, 3, and 5. 

Within The Essentials: Sidekicks Expanded you'll find:

  • The Assassin, specializing in striking from the shadows.
  • The Conjurer, a wizard specializing in control magics and summoning.
  • The Crusader, a warrior of faith and justice.
  • The Duelist, the master of the blade.
  • The Evoker, wizard that makes things go BOOM!
  • The Gladiator, a brutal, close quarters fighter.
  • The Hunter, everyone's favorite outdoorsman.
  • The Necromancer, wizard of life, death, and undeath...
  • The Oathbreaker, you want things to die, they've got you covered.

Not only does this tome contain leveling information for levels 1-6, like the D&D Essentials Kit, we've done you one better and taken it up to level 12!

If sidekicks are your thing then this book is for you. Download it now and meet the following custom sidekick characters in all their glory:

  • Lars, avenging assassin
  • Mathias, the ever helpful conjurer
  • Briann, shield of Oghma
  • Kira, aspiring blademaster
  • Zuri, master of fire
  • Dorgar, former gladiator of Thay
  • Brida, huntress of the wilds
  • Taeryn, mistress of death
  • Raynard, former warrior of Helm

As if you needed any more motivation, we've also got character sheets for your sidekicks covered with The Essentials: Sidekick Sheets, soon to be updated with custom sheets for each of the 9 sidekick types found in this book.

NOTE: There are two versions. They both contain the exact same content, one is just more compressed than the other. Makes for a smaller download. I put both up so everyone can choose whichever one they'd prefer. Thanks, I hope everyone enjoys the book.

Are you planning on a conversion to Fantasy Grounds Unity?

Hi Maarten! Fantastic question. Unfortunately, there are no current plans for a Fantasy Grounds conversion.

Huge update is now live. Added 20+ pages and made tons of corrections.

Clarification: Noticed in a few spots that I wrote an ability can be used x times equal to y modifier, but failed to include per long rest in the text. In those instances, those abilities can be used that many times per long rest. Definitely something that I’ve already corrected in the document for the next update, but it’s important enough to mention for clarities sake.

Not that it doesn't have a good amount of content but I'm Working on a fairly decent sized update for this title to add level progression beyond 6th level and some unique (named) sidekicks. Stay tuned.

Put out an update to fix a couple of small errors in two of the progression tables. If anyone notices anything else out of place or needs any clarification, just join the discussion and let me know.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
