FEAT: IAIJUTSU MASTER

This is a conversion of a 3e prestige class but I didnt feel there was enougth here to make it an archetype but still allow someone to really focus on iaijustsu if they wanted. IAIJUTSU MASTER Iaijutsu is the martial art of drawing a weapon (almost always a katana) and attacking with it in the […]

FIGHTER ARCHETYPE: SHINOBI

The shinobi class for 5e Oriental Adventures. A note on shinobis. In Japan, shinobi and ninja are interchangeable terms. However, in this particular instance, shinobi is more of an upfront fighter than a ninja using some stealth but otherwise taking opponents head-on. The line in the sand is the ninja is more magical/supernatural while the shinobi is […]

BACKGROUND: YAKUZA

This is a thematic feat for the rogue class. It fits in with the 1e Oriental Adventures description of a yakuza. However, the original yakuza class is not different enough from the default rogue to really be its own archetype. However, this will help make your rogue more flavourful. I shamelessly stole from Heroes of the Orient for this class. YAKUZA The yakuza are many […]

Black Church Hunter

An option for my next campaign building on the original class. This archetype fits more in with The League and Beast Hunter ethos. It focuses on physical perfection and technology to beat back monsters. Has a pure strain human view of the Hunt. The Batman of Bloodborne hunters. This class also has access to the […]

DMs GUILD: Mechromancer

New archetype published on the DMs Guild – The Mechromancer. Formatted for easy printing.

MONASTIC TRADITION: TATTOOED MONK

A new monastic tradition for the monk class. Mechanics are slightly different for this tradition than others. TATTOOED MONK Certain monastic orders in the lands of Oriental Adventures bestow supernatural powers on their members by inscribing magic tattoos on their skin. These tattooed monks shave their heads, speak in cryptic riddles and maxims, and—in many cases—travel the countryside furthering their quest […]

FEAT: PEASENT BUSHI

This is a thematic feat for the fighter class. It fits in with the 1e Oriental Adventures description of a bushi, and also has historical roots. However, the original bushi class is not different enough from the fighter martial archetypes to really be its own archetype. However this will help make your peasant fighter more flavourful. PEASENT BUSHI […]
