TARRASQUE

Dare you face the furious might of the Aether Tyrant and save the Eschantrii from the machinations a genie cult

THE TARRASQUE AWAKENS!!!

"The arrogance of men is thinking nature is in our control and not the other way around. Let them fight."

The entirety of the Material Plane - is in peril as the Elder Primordial Guardians awaken, a scheme set in motion by the Cult of the Beasts. The cult seeks to release the final Guardian of Aether, long imprisoned and sleeping within a hidden demiplane. Adventurers and allies of the Eschantrii, a circle of druidic sages, must stop the cult before their nefarious tampering unleashes a force capable of unraveling the natural order.

Here are a few psionic magic items built around psychic power, telekinesis, mind control, and mental defenses. The Sword of Psionic Manifestation is the main one here, giving a character that classic psychic warrior feeling with a manifested psionic blade, extra psychic damage, a reactive mental shield, and telekinetic strikes against distant enemies.

The page also includes the Helm of Telepathic Command and the Staff of the Psionic Overlord, which lean more into domination, telepathy, and spellcasting.

The second page features the Staff of Mind Mastery, a legendary item for spellcasters who want to boost psychic damage, cast powerful mind-affecting spells, retaliate with mental force, and protect themselves from charm, fear, and other psychic threats.

I really like psionic items as rewards because they let you bring mind powers into a regular 5E campaign without needing an entire psionics system. They work especially well for psychic warriors, aberration-themed campaigns, mind flayer plots, alien ruins, strange lost civilizations, or any player who wants their character to feel like their power comes from pure willpower instead of traditional magic.

These items are part of Psionic Magic Items, a collection of unique psionic magic items. You can also check out my bundle of small D&D manuals on DMsGuild, which includes Psionic Magic Items.

You can also subscribe to our newsletter to stay updated on upcoming projects, including a Kickstarter launching in the coming months: Mythological Items for 5E and 5.5E, inspired by myths from around the world. By joining the newsletter, you can download a free 30-page PDF preview of the upcoming Kickstarter. We only send emails occasionally, and only when there’s a new release, important news, or exclusive free content and discount codes to share.

This week's map is the Jungle Rubble (40x40), some lovely little jungle ruins for your party to fight crocodiles, jungle goblins, or very small dinosaurs probably. That's what I remember from Tomb of Annihilation at least, but it's been a while but those seemed to be the usual suspects. Anyway, ruins maps have always been some of my favorites to make and I feel like they're almost always relevant, so I can't imagine you'll never not need something like this when journeying through the forest.

If you like the map and are interested in more, come by my Patreon, I've made a bunch and I seem to show no signs of stopping. And yes, I seriously draw these in Photoshop.

Did this for a client recently! Here’s some info about the characters

Drow Warlock: Cold, calculating, and always three steps ahead. Speaks little, observes everything, and treats every interaction like a quiet negotiation.

Dwarf Ranger: Gruff but dependable, with a dry sense of humor. His bond with his monkey companion is stronger than most friendships.

Human Cleric: Compassionate and devout, guided by faith and a deep desire to help others. A calming presence who sees the good in people and offers hope in dark times.

Half-Elf Rogue: Witty, guarded, and sharp-tongued. Keeps emotional distance but fiercely loyal once trust is earned.

Human Barbarian: Bold, fearless, and driven by instinct. Thrives in chaos, with a competitive streak and a surprisingly warm heart beneath it.

Tiefling Bard: Charismatic and mischievous, always performing—even in battle. Loves attention, but hides deeper insecurities behind charm.

Enigma’s Puzzle Box, Stormforged Gauntlets, and Luminous Shard of Healing are three scaling wondrous items built for long-term character progression.

Enigma’s Puzzle Box is a relic of knowledge, illusions, and reality manipulation, starting as a tool for investigation and identification before growing into a powerful item that reveals hidden truths, creates convincing illusions, and eventually protects its wielder through veils, duplicates, and escape magic.

Stormforged Gauntlets are made for characters who want to channel the fury of the sky. They begin with lightning resistance and thunderous magic, then evolve into stronger storm spells, immunity to lightning damage, and finally the power to unleash a devastating storm of vengeance.

Luminous Shard of Healing is a radiant support item tied to restoration and divine magic. It grants access to healing magic early on, then grows into stronger restorative effects, eventually allowing the wielder to create a sanctuary of light that heals wounds, cures diseases, removes curses, and restores allies.

These are items from Growing Magic Items - a collection of evolving magic gear designed to grow alongside your characters.

Growing Magic Items are magic items with four tiers of rarity that evolve and unlock new capabilities as characters progress through levels or achieve important milestones. Their progression can be tied to character level, personal achievements, or specific quests, allowing you to adapt them easily to different campaign styles and power levels.

After the collection performed extremely well on DMsGuild and reached bestseller status, I decided to reinvest in the project by recommissioning all the artwork, giving the entire collection brand-new illustrations, alongside light revisions and a handful of new Growing Magic Items added to the book. If you already own it, you can download the updated version for free on DMsGuild.

You can find over 80 Growing Magic Items on DMsGuild. You can also check out my bundle of small D&D manuals on DMsGuild, which includes Growing Magic Items Collection.

More content is on the way! 300+ Mythological Items for 5E and 2024 launches on Kickstarter around May. You can follow the campaign to get notified when it goes live. The project includes a physical hardcover and printed editions of my previous manuals.

Do you have the willpower to dedicate yourself to the ancient military code of the Bushido? Do you have the integrity and fortitude to embody the 7 tenets that govern the life of a Bushi?

Then prepare to master the way of the blade, and embody the code of the Bushido with this subclass!

The Way of the Bushido is one of my favourite creations, offering:

  • Two brand new, custom fighting styles that represent traditional Japanese fighting styles.
  • Spells, channel divinity options and leveled features that pay homage to traditional Japanese culture.
  • An authentic subclass that does its best to be respectful and diligent in its representation of traditional Japanese culture

Please critique kindly :)
