Sword-Mage Collection [unofficial]

I have one submission in mind. From there to paper there is a long way, but I will make it happen before the deadline.

As a bonus, I am thinking on incorporating the participating classes in the character generator. At this point there are no templates submitted for the contest, but if anyone adds that information it can be incorporated too.

I have updated the original post with a list of each of the classes being put up for consideration. I will try to keep that up to date.

Feel free to add mine to the PDF.

Added, and thank you. I’ve credited you as Tywyll a.k.a. Micah Blackburn (from your blog name). If you would prefer something else, let me know.

Nope that rocks. :smiley:

No problem. Use Sword-sorcerer for whatever. Starting to playtest soon. May have changes from lessons learned.

Here’s the Thrassian Dweomerclaw.

In Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers, “warlocks” are a kind if fighter/mage. Here is an ACKS-compatible version:

Also, here is the full-blooded Hyperborean Spellsword to go with my half-breed class:

How should the credit and copyright read?

Very nice! Would you like to have it included in the PDF collection?

Go right ahead!

What copyright should I put in for you?

Taarkoth’s fine

Not a contest entry as it’s just the barebones build notes, but I threw this together to see what a vanilla warrior-mage style class might look like:

Warrior-Mage

Base XP: 2725
HD d6
Fighting +2/3 levels
Styles: 2-Handed, Single Weapon
Armour: Broad (chain or lighter)
Weapons: Broad (any one-handed or two-handed melee)
Arcane: 1/3
1st level: Arcane Dabbling + Weapon Focus
4th level: Battle Magic
10th level: Arcane Striking

Well crap. Rereading my PC I just realized I’d missed the line about Flesh Runes counting as 3 custom powers. Back to the drawing board.

Time is running short, and that is the motivation I needed to start putting things together. This is my first custom class, so please let me know if there are any errors with the math. I have made a gnome 2, fighter 2, with 2 swaps.

I am not very familiar with the OGL, please add whatever is needed to share it.

Thanks.

Just checked in to see how this was going, and noticed your status listed for my entry: “Will be in the PDF when I have appropriate copyright information.”

Not sure what that means, exactly. Perhaps this is related to some quotes that I included from fantasy novels? If so, the sources are cited, and they are relatively short passages that should not require copyright. If that doesn’t satisfy you, then just remove the quotes.

Thanks again.

What it means is: how should I credit you in the PDF?

Ah. Gotcha. Thanks. Just by username: “ABPos.”

Elf men are from Mars, elf women are from Venus. When the planets align, they are able to open portals to Earth, where they seek to prove themselves worthy of a mate.

Here’s my Martian Spellsword class. It’s pretty solidly based on the Elven Spellsword, but there are enough differences that it’s worth posting here.

(Attribute me as Witness, please.)
