Now I don’t just do magic items I’ve done monsters, subclasses, etc as well.
MAGIC WEAPON THAT LETS YOU TELEPORT 5E FOR FREE
Actually you know what lets make one together right now for the ‘ Fun Free Stuff‘ page! If you aren’t familiar while I’m bored and scrolling thru TikTok (follow me on there I will occasionally come across something that I’m like ‘aw yes this needs to be a thing’ and I’ll make it available for free on this here blog thing once its done. Well as I have never written it down before bare with me for a moment. How personally do I go about creating a homebrew magic item? But let’s go from generic pieces of advice to actionable things. Honestly players have the chaos potential of doing this on their own so as designers we need to help limit how much our magic items contribute to that. The more you do the more confidently you can break away from everything else that is currently out there and make something that stands out a little more but doesn’t destroy a campaign.Īs you can see a theme in both of my main pieces of advice for this is about not breaking a campaign for a DM. Power curves, potential loopholes for being OP, gaps in what magic items are out there, things that would be cool for themed games etc. The more magic items you research and consume, the more of them you create you gain an understanding of some underlining things with them.
This might seem a little bit in conflict with my first piece of advice but you can’t know how you can break the expected without know what is expected. Those are the phrases and words needed to make sure your magic item stays within the power curve so as to not screw over a DMs game.ĭON’T BE AFRAID TO BREAK THE MOLD.
Pay attention to the wording they use to limit how things can function. Look up spells, feats and class abilities that may be similar or have aspects that you want to focus on for the item. Like look at the type of magic item you are making and read through what they can do, see what their limitations are based off of rarity levels.
Honestly the two biggest pieces of advice I can give you are – People tend to get intimidated when it comes to designing things for their own game or for others to use. So I get alot of questions asking about how I go about making the magic items that I do.
