Champions of the Blood War

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Champions of the Blood War presents new Demonic & Diabolical Player Options for your Campaigns!

This project was primarily designed for use with the new, official, BALDUR'S GATE: DESCENT INTO AVERNUS adventure, but can be used by players & dungeon master's in any campaign that needs an injection of demons, devils, yugoloths and other nefarious elements!

Everything included here was written with balance in mind so it could function in any campaign and setting where these elements are present, but you should feel free to tailor the things presented here to your own games! If you have any questions or comments feel free to comment here or find me on Twitter @JeremyMelloul - I'm always happy to chat and will release updates periodically.

This Project Includes:

  • 2 New Backgrounds! (The Cultist & The Reclaimed Soul) 
  • 12 New Subclasses! (1 For Every Single Class!)
  • 11 New Spells related to Demons, Devils, and Yugoloths!

The New Player Options

Backgrounds!

Cultist (Ex-Cultist). A current or previous member of a demonic or diabolical cult who is able to make use of the secret knowledge they learned as a member of the cult.

Styx-Touched. An individual who once drank from the waters of the River Styx and lost all recollection of their past life, and is forced to contend with the unbridled return of memories from that life.

New Class Archetypes!

Paladin: Oath of the Hellrider. Loyal to the Fallen Angel, Zariel, leads allies on the battlefield with devastating martial competence.

Ranger: Demonweb Hunter. Ensnares their enemies with webs and debilitating poisons like the Abyssal spiders of the Demonweb. 

Rogue: Devilbound. Follows in the example of Devils to hunt down their foes with a variety of powerful Infernal Poisons. 

Sorcerer: Amalgamated Soul. Traps and consumes the souls of other creatures, to strengthen their own soul.

Warlock: The Yugoloth Covenant. Strikes a pact with a group of Yugoloths, using magic, deception, and avarice to do their bidding.

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.
