Forward This is my Homebrewed conversion of the Factotum class from the D&D 3.5 Book Dungeonscape: An Essential Guide to Dungeon Adventuring (2007) by Jason Bulmahn and Rich Burlew. In the spirit of this wonderful class and D&D 5e, I have also combined it with two Prestige classes that go with this class very well as Archetypes. These “Archetypes” are the Chameleon and Master of Masks Prestige Classes. The Chameleon Prestige Class is from the D&D 3.5 Book Races of Destiny (2004) by David Noonan, Eric Cagle, and Aaron Rosenberg. The Master of Masks Prestige Class is from the D&D 3.5 Book Complete Scoundrel: A Player’s Guide to Trickery and Ingenuity (2007) by Mike McArtor and F. Wesley Schneider. I would recommend these books to anybody, and hope that every D&D Player has the privilege of reading these fine books. I am sorry if anything I do is in anyway problematic with Copyright issues, but it seems fine according to what the DM Guild information page at www.dmsguild.com/whatisdmsguild.php says under the section “What Can I Publish?”, which says “you can convert magic items, monsters, character classes, spells, etc. from earlier edition books to fifth edition and publish your conversion at DMsGuild.com.” I am publishing this PDF exclusively on dmsguild.com. If this is found anywhere else, it is against my wishes and is, as far as I understand, Copyright Infringement. I do not care about gaining money from this, but only want to get a better perspective and help playtesting one of my favorite classes and two amazing prestige classes from the 3.5 Edition of the World’s Best Role Playing Game. I believe these classes are so good, that they need to continue through 5th Edition. 6th +3 11(22) Archetype Ability 7th +3 12(24) FACTOTUM CLASS 8th +3 13(26) Ability Score Improvement, Archetype Ability It is foolhardy to explore a dungeon alone. Those who attempt to do so quickly find 9th +4 14(28) Cunning Knowledge (2/day) that they lack the skills needed to get the job done. Sometimes, this can happen in 10th +4 15(30) Archetype Ability larger parties as well. Enter the factotum, a new standard class, capable of mimicking 11th +4 16(32) the abilities of others and filling in when the need is greatest. 12th +4 17(34) Ability Score Improvement, Archetype After a lifetime of work, few can claim even a fraction of the versatility that the factotum displays every day. Skilled in nearly every art, factotums draw upon their Ability lore to master almost any trade or ability for a brief period of time before other 13th +5 18(36) Improved Cunning Defense pursuits draw their attention. Whereas bards use their general knowledge to aid 14th +5 19(38) Archetype Ability others, factotums focus their abilities solely upon themselves. Constantly on the hunt 15th +5 20(40) for new abilities and tricks, factotums eventually find the right tool to overcome 16th +5 21(42) Ability Score Improvement, Archetype practically any problem. Ability However, a factotum cannot go it alone. He relies on sudden flashes of insight gleaned from his studies and the broad array of his experiences. He might not be the 17th +6 22(44) Cunning Knowledge (3/day) best fighter or the mightiest spellcaster in a group, but when the party needs a stout 18th +6 23(46) Archetype Ability warrior or an arcane spell, the factotum can provide it. 19th +6 24(48) Ability Score Improvement If you like having a trick up your sleeve, or if you want to have an answer to 20th +6 25(50) Archetype Ability almost any problem, then the factotum is the class for you. Your intellect bolsters your fighting ability, and your basic understanding of divine magic and arcane spells allows you to manipulate magical energy. GAME RULE INFORMATION Adventures: Knowledge is everything, and applied knowledge is even better. Factotums have the following game statistics. You adventure out of a sense of curiosity, a desire to pierce the veil of ignorance that Abilities: Intelligence is a factotum’s most important ability. Almost everything shrouds so much of the world. If you hear rumors of an island with beaches of you do relies upon it. You master so many areas of study because you have the keen diamonds and mountains of gold, you want to find the island, determine its origin, mind needed to learn through observation and experience, rather than formal study. and learn its secrets. To other adventurers, the entrance to a dungeon is a gateway to When you fight, use a skill, or cast a spell, your Intelligence plays a role in your treasure and power. To you, it is a promise of secrets waiting in the dungeon’s success. Of course, Dexterity and Strength are useful, too. When you cannot provide deepest levels. a cunning solution to a problem, you can heft an axe or fire a bow as well as many Think of yourself as an adventuring scholar, an expert who has the right answer at other classes. the right time, a seeker who finds the truths hidden in the world. You are the one Alignment: Any. who notices that an ogre has a long scar along its leg, allowing you to strike the creature where the old wound has not fully healed. You are the one who read a book Class Features on the dark arts, allowing you to conjure the spell needed to banish an ice devil. As a factotum, you gain the following class features. Other adventurers must prepare their abilities and hope they have the right tools to overcome a challenge. You wait for difficulties to present themselves and then Hit Points decide what talents to employ. Hit Dice: 1d8 per factotum level Characteristics: As a factotum, you are a jack of all trades. For short periods of Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Constitution modifier time, you can stand in for almost any other member of the party. Your intellect, Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + your Constitution modifier per training, and experiences allow you to bolster your efforts in almost any situation. factotum level after 1st But your magical abilities are at best limited. You can master potent spells, but your lack of formal training makes it difficult for you to use them more than once each day. Furthermore, your understanding of magic is broad rather than deep. Proficiencies Alignment: Factotums can be of any alignment. Some use their abilities for good, Armor: Light armor, and shields helping people in need and learning from the attendant challenges. Other factotums Weapons: Simple weapons, and martial weapons view the world as a well that is rightfully theirs, and they take what they likeSample from it. Tools:file Thieves’ tools Relying upon no one but themselves, these evil factotums steal and cheat to gain Saving Throws: Dexterity, Intelligence power and use their abilities to further their own ends. The majority of factotums fall Skills: Choose any three, plus an addition skill for each point of intelligence somewhere between these extremes. They appreciate a stable, benevolent society, bonus. At the end of a short or long rest, you can change one of your proficiencies but they are too absorbed in travel and study to care much about others. given by this skill. Factotums usually favor law over chaos; they love to find structure and insight in the topics they study. Chaotic factotums are vagabonds and wanderers who Factotum Points experience life as it comes, believing that whatever topics happen to cross their paths The factotum is a dabbler, a professional explorer who plunders a wide variety of are as good as any other. fields to find the tools he needs to survive. He reads through tomes of arcane magic Races: Factotums are commonly humans, halflings, and gnomes. Those races are to gain a basic understanding of spells.

He observes warrior stances and exercises to understand the art to tough problems. Longer-lived races, such as dwarves and elves, find a factotum’s of fighting. But while a factotum learns many paths, he masters none of them. Rather fickle nature to be a poor imitation of the true mastery that can be attained only than train in a given field, he masters all the basics and manages to pull out through centuries of life. Due to their low Intelligence, half-orcs find the factotum something useful when the situation is desperate enough. class difficult to master, but some manage to make a name for themselves. To represent this seemingly random body of knowledge, a factotum gains Other Classes: Factotums work well with other classes whose role is clearly factotum points that he can spend to activate his abilities.

Romaguera APPROVED: Dissertation Committee: Major Professor Valerie Karno Carolyn Betensky Ian Reyes Nasser H. Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2017 Abstract This dissertation explores the author-text-reader relationship throughout the publication of works of serial fiction in different media. Following Pierre Bourdieu’s notion of authorial autonomy within the fields of cultural production, I trace the outside influence that nonauthorial agents infuse into the narrative production of the serialized. To further delve into the economic factors and media standards that encompass serial publishing, I incorporate David Hesmondhalgh’s study of market forces, originally used to supplement Bourdieu’s analysis of fields.

  • The Beastfolk in Them
    The BBeaeaeaeastfolk stfolk Anthropomorphic races for the d20 system s ’ Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 and 4e4e4e By Gideon Kalve Jarvis Author’s notes Dungeons & Dragons and related material is copyright Wizards of the Coast, Incorporated. This work is copyright Gideon Kalve Jarvis and may be distributed (and this author encourages it), so long as the author’s name is retained. Whether through the machinations of wizards or the meddling of the gods or simply the quirks of fate, a world can quickly become awash in sentient species, each one trying in its own fashion to find and defend a niche, however small and specialized. Of these many sentient spspecies,ecies, a great many take traits from the nonsentient animals, or are related to them directly. The races below are a collection of several of the more common of these beastfolk. Unless otherwise noted, the races below use the human charts for aging. For those players wishing to add even more variety to their games, the official Wizards of the Coast work, Savage Species , can be invaluable in turning monster races into playable characters, though the rules in that volume sometimes requires a little tweaking for perfection in a given campaign. Later writings in this vein may (if there is any interest shown) include a listing of these races, as well as their statistical information. Also, the various “Races” books (Races of Stone , Races of the Wild , Races of Destiny , Races of the Dragon , etcetera) are also very useful resources for playing a variety of new and interesting species, some of which only require the lightest tweaking in order to turn them more “furry” in nature, if they are not already so (as I do with Raptorans and Catfolk, from Races of the Wild , in making the birdfolk and the urban catfolk, presented below).

    Networking Knowledge 8(4) Digital Comics (July 2015) Waiting for the Next Part: How the Temporal Dimensions of Digital Serialisation Have Changed Author-Reader Dynamics GABRIEL E. ROMAGUERA, University of Rhode Island, Kingston Campus ABSTRACT A work of serial fiction is defined as ‘a continuing story over an extended period of time with enforced interruptions’ (Hughes & Lund 1991, 1). It is that “enforced interruption” which makes for a temporal and spatial pause between the author, the reader, and the text. The distribution and publication of instalments for traditional print publishing and print comics works on strict schedules but this is not necessarily the case for digital comics. This paper explores how the serialization of webcomics functions with both defined and indeterminate publication schedules and how this affects the author-reader relationship. It uses textual criticism to better explain the publication aspects of narrative production and adapts these concepts to digital comics and their serialization. The analysis focuses on Rich Burlew and Tarol Hunt, two professional webcomic cartoonists who continue to search for the best publication schedule for their authorial processes. KEYWORDS Serialisation, author-reader relationship, webcomics. 1 Networking Knowledge 8(4) Digital Comics (July 2015) The process of reading requires patience. Engaging with a work of literature takes time as one goes from cover to cover of the text, though one has the power to skip to the end at any moment. In plays, films, television, and other forms of performances, the reader now becomes a viewer, who must wait patiently until the showing has run its time. Only when viewing these texts on a DVD or similar digital document can one exert control over the pace of the storytelling.

In a typical Dungeons & Dragons campaign environment, they live in the damp caves and towns of the huge Underdark. Illithids believe themselves to be the dominant species of multiverse and use other intelligent creatures like thralls, slaves and chatter. Illithids are well known for making thralls of other intelligent creatures, as well as feasting on their brains.

  • Don't Split the Party by Rich Burlew
    Don't Split the Party Rich Burlew Don't Split the Party Rich Burlew Don't Split the Party Rich Burlew Divided by the events of War and XPs, our heroes struggle to reunite in this fourth compilation of the popular online comic, The Order of the Stick! With their leader, ah, indisposed, Haley leads the quest to bring him back from the, uh, the place that he is at. (Hey, some people only read the comic in book form, I don't want to spoil it for them.) Meanwhile, her love Elan contends with new threats at sea, including some direct competition for her man! And how will these problems drive one of the Order's own to take an offer they should have refused? Find out in the exciting continuation of the OOTS story, Don't Split the Party! Here's what the book contains: * All of the comics from #485 to #672, inclusive. * More than 15 bonus comics, including two all-new deleted scenes: "Elan's Underwater Adventure" and "Get Roy". * Ten pages of author commentary which will be horribly misquoted to support the more outlandish fan theories. * A special dedication to Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, creators of Dungeons & Dragons. * Preface by Roy Greenhilt. * A recap of events-to-date by Belkar Bitterleaf. * Printed on 50% recycled paper. The next stage of the stick figure action-comedy-drama-fantasy saga is here at last, and it's just waiting for you to add it to your growing collection of fine The Order of the Stick trade paperbacks.
