Time and Again - 15 Time-Themed Subclasses

Welcome to Time and Again! This is a book of 14 subclasses all based around the concept of time. It started as a discussion about an interesting design idea and grew into what you see here. We hope there’s something for everyone here—we have subclasses about the past, the present, and the future; about preserving time and destroying it; about splitting seconds and splitting timelines. Enjoy!

Includes the following subclasses:

• Timekeeper: an artificer specialist that stores ticks in a timepiece that they can spend on complications - small manipulations of the timestream.
• Path of the Anamoly: a barbarian path that shreds the timestream with rage, fraying the flow of time around them.
• Path of the Temporal Tempest: a barbarian path that has survived a temporal storm and emerged resiliant and brutal.
• College of Anachronism: a bard college that focuses on saving interesting moments, taking snapshots of time for later use.
• History Domain: a cleric divine domain focused on learning the knowledge of the past and using it to predict the future.
• Divergence: a fighter archetype that is a oddity in time, a parallel version of themselves, or a warrior from another timeline.
• Way of Deja Fu: a monastic tradition that incorporates splitting time, moving between moments to deliver the perfect strike.
• Oath of Genesis: a paladin oath dedicated to the renewal of time and the possibility of changing the world.
• The Inexorable: a ranger conclave dedicated to the tending of the timeline, either protecting the integrity of time or bending it to suit their interests.
• Thief of Hours: a rogue archetype that steals time from others in combat, manipulating their initiative to their advantage.
• Fluxtouched: a sorcerous origin unmoored from time, able to push themselves faster or slower through the timestream.
• Future Self: a warlock pact made with oneself from the future, a generous patron who grants their past self powers to ensure their own existence.
• Chronomancy: a warlock/sorcerer/wizard multiclass archetype that uses magic to exert control over the flow of time.
• Returned Warrior: a fighter/paladin multiclass archetype that has a bond with a warrior from the ancient past that lends the knowledge of the ages.
• Bonus subclass - Order of the Cyclic: a blood hunter that attunes to the cycles of nature: time, seasons, and phases of the moon.
