A new Warlock subclass, they've made a deal with an entity that dwells out of reach of the light, deep in the oceans, swimming in the sunless seas, or from the stagnate waters of the underdark, these patrons are lost and forgotten by the world, but their dark messengers are no less deadly for it.

So this is probably where I wanted to be at the last update; Alchemy isn't "done" (and won't be as I'll be adding new stuff as long as crafting is a thing I'm sure :) ) but it is a little more complete and functional.
- I added a handful of new potions, and rebalanced some of them to what I use in my games.
- I added a few oils ...

There is going to be a handful of crafting polls coming, but after talking to some folks I wanted to get a sense of where people are and what they want.
I want to be perfectly clear that I'm not going to treat the results of this poll as necessarily binding, but I will let it influence how I present the items and what I focus on.

It's really not quite ready, but I gave myself a hardline that I'd share this out today, as I was supposed to be sharing out progress every week this month on it. I've been working on this quite a bit behind the scenes and gathering feedback from some helpers, and I always thought it was one little tweak from ready, but I want to try to make tha...

The Wizard school of our times, this comes from a patreon request for a disease focused Wizard. These Wizards delve the secrets of pathogens and diseases, unlocking their potential, and using magic and knowledge to quell the maledictions of their allies and bring terrible fates to their foes. As feared as any necromancer, these Wizards wield ter...

This Month
Starting this month, I want to bring a little more focus to my projects. I have, over time, acquired too many long term projects that simmer away with little obvious progress and lack of deadlines. As I turn more of my attention to working on things, I want to try to get some of these projects actually out and in the hands of ...

So we already saw a Preview version, and this is pretty similar to that, but with some changes based on feedback and playtesting. It does have some new stuff in it, and some further tweaks and changes to clean up some issues.

This is it, the Occutlist 1.0; there's been too many changes to track all of them from the 0.9, but changes from the 1.0 forward will be tracked.

A patreon requested that I go through the Arcane Archer and revise it to Superiority Dice like I did the Cavalier, and I thought that was a great idea, and something I was more or less planning to do eventually anyway.
While I don't think superiority dice are necessary for every Fighter (at this point anyway, I think that would have been a...

The biggest of the changes are in the Expanded Options, and by biggest I mean it has two full new subclasses - Wandering Mind (Nomad) and Elemental Mind (Kineticists)

The Skulker lurks in the shadows and offers their power to those that pay the price, during them into dark agents capable of dealing a poisonous death from the shadows.
This is loosely based on the Skulker of Vhaeraun arechtype from older editions, combined stealth, poison, and a patron that'd rather not stand in the spot light...

Assassin has always been a popular archetype with some major flaws. Chief among the flaws is that its main feature, Assassinate, relies on surprise - something that you will rarely in get in a party, meaning the Assassin tends to shine the most in solo play... something that doesn't come up that often.
I had a few things I wanted to do - I...

I apologize for not using the more convenient patron poll for this, but this is a big one. I won't spam you with these, and we'll go running proper patreon polls about "what to work on" soon, but I've never actually done a proper survey like this, and I would love to get the feedback in more details.
This shouldn't take more than 10 minute...

We are pretty close now folks. Of course, 1.0 will not be the end of its development, but at least that'll open the floodgates. I often say that around the 1.3 is where a class is usually fairly solid, but I think at this point we have a clear structure for the Oracle, Shaman and Witch, and there's several playtesters playing each of those subcl...

So we aren't to the release version yet here, but this is the first version to have a proper Oracle in it.
Oracle is in it's early days and may seem some changes, but I think we have the core idea in. It's not quite a Pathfinder Oracle, but it has some overlap with the conceptual ground, if skewed more toward prophecy and divination, it re...

Hi Folks,
June has been a slow month for a release schedule around here; there's no getting around that. I've been working on a handful of stuff, with the Occultist at the top of the queue, and some of it's close to release, but ultimately we saw less content than I'd hope this month.
But I think I can promise some substantive change...

The head liner change here is a new version of Overwhelming Mark, Overwhelming Mark has plagued the class a little bit from the unset of having a similar problem to stunning strike - while in terms of balance a feature that is somewhere between overpowered and useless might be just right, it was often frustrating to use and to fall ...

I haven't put a news update here in a bit, so I figured I'd post and give the general plan.
Immediately Upcoming:
One of my earlier subclasses was a Rogue that ended up being called the Purifier. I think ultimately it was in a pretty good spot, but after quite a lot of playtesting and feedback, some refresh was needed to some of it's features, and it's been tweaked a bit here with some updates.
I've also never loved the name (I think Inquisitor is the...

Magic items for Psions and Psionics. Not an exhaustive list, but some basic functionality ones and a sprinkling of stranger things. Inspired on by a patreon request :)
These will eventually make their way into the Expanded Options for the Psion probably.
