Ulther's Compendium of Poisons
Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild
by Bryan H. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/24/2018 09:56:37

Eight pages that feel like they were lifted right out of the PHB. The rules and mechanics presented within this book allow characters to collect and refine the materials needed to make poison. Additionally there is a refresher on how poisons work, how they're viewed in society, and the costs associated with the non-poison things a poisoner will need (glass vials and the like).

Musica Aeternam: A Bardic Handbook
Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild
by Bryan H. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/24/2018 09:53:56

It's obvious how much thought went into producing this product so I'm going to do my best to review it here. Please note, I view this work quite highly and think of it as a good watermark for what authors can do with the DMs Guild program.

Chapter 1: A handbook or guide to what bards were historically, what they are now, what that means in the context of D&D, and what options one has as a bard in the game.

Chapter 2: 6 new bard colleges are available and 5 new feats are available. College of the Spheres plays out with abilities that provide flexibility to how the magic of a bard functions, all themed to mathematics and music. College of the Silver Pen works on making the most effective writer a bard can be, giving them much stronger curses and even write poems that grant inspiration to those that read it. College of the Sacred Yew focuses on getting in touch with nature, learning many tricks from druids. College of the Eternal Veil attempts to empower bards by giving them much much greater access to the magic of other classes. College of the Song Immemorial turns your songs into truly moving epics, able to sway the opinions of others. Troupe of the Shadowdancers allows shadows to become illusions in the gifted hands of a bard.

The feats are all quite comparable to what one finds in the core rulebooks. Arcane Visage grants you more wizardly abilities, while functioning like a bardic version of prestidigitation. Battledancer provides a new way to fight using your charisma for limited periods. Diplomat is a feat I'm surprised wasn't already in the PHB, and does what it says in the name. Melodic Casting grants you tricks while casting spells. Virtuoso turns you into a sort of minor celebrity.

Chapter 3: This chapter adds epic options for the new colleges to be used with the Epic Characters rulebook from the DMs Guild. If you do not possess or use that rulebook, three new epic boons round out the chapter.

Chapter 4: 3 new magic items round out the book. Diplomat's Immunity Very rare leather armor often used by diplomats for situations where diplomacy might fail them. Sachel of the Combat Medic A powerful, yet tastefully limited, legendary healing item. Singing Sword As with the holy avenger, the bards need a similarly legendary weapon for their own: the Singing Sword.

Overall the book is excellent. The classes all feel balanced (I've yet to playtest any), the feats feel like they'd be right at home in my PHB and the magic items are all balanced (although very high level). I can praise the book much, but I can find only one critism: there should be a few new spells added to complete the whole thing. Even if it was just a singular spell to represent each of the six new colleges.

Elemental Item Sets and Boons
Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild
by Bryan H. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/24/2018 09:34:31

This one is going to go under many radars because of the formatting. The cover isn't interesting and the text is thick and weighty. But if you don't mind those very trivial things, inside you'll have many many items that could work in your campaign. Each item comes as a basic version. As an example, there is a greatsword called the Zweihänder of Agrimaugh. It starts as the "Corpseblade", an uncommon magic item. However, if your players find the "Dragonscale Shagreen" (a leather strip of dragon hide that wraps around the handle), it merges with the corpseblade, granting it additional powers. Finally, when a special condition is met (in this case, the blade cuts an adult dragon who is killed within the hour), it becomes a legendary artifact.

Every item is presented in this way. Base item, upgrades, final legendary form. All of it comes with lore that can be adapted for most settings and while the power levels of the items vary greatly, there's nothing here you wouldn't find in the Dungeon Master's Guide. A true hidden gem right here.

Backgrounds, Confidant & Citizen Guard
Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild
by Bryan H. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/24/2018 09:30:28

Backgrounds are awesome, as they add flavour to the world and your characters without considering things like levels, monsters, or other "crunchy" things. The backgrounds provided here are quite fine, with the Confidant being something like Varys from Game of Thrones and the Citizen Guard being something every campaign has. I will note the Confidant ability ("You Can Confide In Me") is a bit mechanically janky, so each use will probably require re-reading it. Other than that small quibble, this is an excellent supplement.

Lots of artwork, but most of it is so low quality that it's unusable. If this were a pay what you want title, I would still caution people considering it, given how low quality the images are.

Art for your Adventures Set 3: Mega Pack
Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild
by Bryan H. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/24/2018 09:22:07

The artwork provided is in a medium resolution, usable by most accounts for smaller works. The quality varies greatly, but it's all very "drawn on the back of an 80's trapper keeper" type stuff. That's not bad, but you should know what you're getting into for 12 bucks. Overall I'll probably find enough use of this pack to justify the cost, but only barely.

Twenty Six Point Five Shades of Scarlet
Publisher: Encoded Designs
by Bryan H. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/24/2018 09:20:34

So a series of short fictions that basically no one should read, I printed these out and told my players that they're actual stories being printed in the world. That context change made it perfect for my game but honestly, I think they got a kick out of how trashy it all was. I highly recommend anyone who has the time read them. At least, just read the warnings.

The image itself is high quality, with very eye catching contrast. Gary would be proud, and any reference to the D&D cartoon is awesome.
