So a week or so ago, I published a poll asking what sort of homebrews people would like to see more of next year. The most resounding response was for more subclasses (which I’m happy to oblige since they’re my favourite thing to make anyway), but a close second was for more miscellaneous content for players. So, I’ve been working on something different which players can use for their characters called physical traits. This idea originally came to me while I was designing an older character, and I wondered why age wasn’t a factor that influenced characters despite the fact it influences you in real life.Physical traits are a bit like racial traits in that they are given to 1st level characters and influence the way they play, only you can choose them freely and they give both perks and detriments. You can have up to three: one that factors in physical size, one that factors in age, and one that factors in your weight. If your character is above or below average in any of these regards, consider trying out one of these traits! They should be perfectly balanced for normal play since their downsides and upsides are relatively even.I’ll be designing more content like this in future since I want to expand my repertoire beyond just races and subclasses. If you like this and want more random content for your characters, I’ve also designed some magic items and variant background features. If you want the high quality PDF versions of these or you just want to support me, please consider pledging to my patreon. -- source link
