Re: [High 5e] Spheres of Power & Might for 5e

The Artillerist has some good blasty bonus spells, but notably lacks Lightning Bolt and other "line-shaped" AoE effects. As for Ranger and mobility, a persistent climbing speed is a huge aspect of Megaman's mobility, and in offocial 5e there's Spider Climb and the Thief removing extra move...

Always happy to see others enjoying my reviews! This is anecdotal evidence, but I've noticed in a few circles that people who are ...

Chapter 4: Spheres, Part I By far the longest chapter in the book, we’ll cover the Spheres in four parts. Before beginning there are some universalities I should bring up.

Re: [5e, Creative] Spheres of Power & Might by Setting

I think Supers & Spheres has been my favorite so far. This is the kind of baseline power level I like operating on. Can't help but notice the lack of super-psychic powers or super-illusions. All these power sets are pretty obviously based on super heroes and not their rogues. Like, there's Powe...

Hello everyone! I’ve done half a dozen official settings for the Spheres system, and feel quite accomplished. But now I’m going to move on to tackling 3rd party works before continuing on with TSR/WotC ones. I have several reasons for this. Birthright, Council of Wyrms, Ghostwalk, Spelljammer: the s...

Brancalonia and Blue Rose are done (Review links in the OP).
