Could I run a fantasy game using MnM

Hi there! I recently bought the MnM 3rd edition book from Gen con and I have absolutely loved reading through it. One thing that I saw was that there was options for archaic weapons like swords and battleaxes, and it made me wonder, “Could I run a high fantasy game using this system?”

If so, are there any big changes that I would have to make to accommodate for it? I know people will probably just say “use another system,” but I’ve never found a system like this one that is so open to letting you actually use your cool abilities as much as you want.

Lupin Species | Unleash your Beastial Instincts with this Werewolf inspired homebrew!

Hi there! I've been looking forward to the Ravenloft Lupin, so I tried making my own version! Hope you all enjoy! My main design goal is to not rely on designs that focus on uses per rest or spell as traits.

If you have any Feedback, I'd love to hear it!

Also you can post any suggestions for further Homebrews from me as well!

Here is my Discord link if you'd like to see my homebrews early and talk to me in general!

Here's a Detect Balance breakdown in case you want to check the balance of it against those rankings.
+13 from ASI
+3 Unarmed strike that uses Dexterity or Strength (1d6 weapons are listed as +2 and get +1 if they can use Dexterity as well)
+2/3 from Bestial Aspect. ( a +5 movement speed has a rating of 2. Powerful build by itself is listed at +2, so I assumed the push reduction adds another point.)
+2 Darkvision
+1/+2 from advantage on survival checks to track (Survival by itself is already listed as 2, so I'm not sure how an even more limited version would rate)
+2 from 30 ft climb speed.
+8 from Terrifying Howl (Nimble Escape and Blindsight out to 30 ft are both rated at 8, and I don't think this is that much stronger than either of those options.)

That ranges from 31 to 33, with the lower yield being equivalent to Elf Which is still less than most of the highly ranked species in 5.5e. Stuff like dragonborn, human, goliath all are in the upper 30s, so I think this might actually be pretty in line with other species based off of that.

How would you optimize the Fey-shift feature from the new Fey Sentinel feat?

Hi there! I really love the new Fey Sentinel feat, and was really interested to see what kind of cool builds could be used to optimize it.

Something about always having that at-will teleport seems especially suited to my playstyle! (For reference, I often play warlocks that focus on at-will invocations and such.)

Maybe Monk or Rogue to be able to use it as a Bonus Action? Or maybe something like a bladesinger with a rogue dip?

Or perhaps something like an Eldritch Knight could be cool?

Dryad Player Species | Use your connection to the earth to wield great Nature Magicks!

Hi there, this is my newest Fey species! As with all my designs, I try to aim for a design that avoids spells as traits and avoids uses per rest mechanics. I hope you like it!

It should be roughly in the low 30s for DB based on what some of my collaborators in the Unearthed Arcana discord gaged.

I appreciate any feedback that you might have!

Hi there! Here is my next installment for my Fey species! I've been mulling over this one a lot, since trying to stick to my design sensibility of not relying on uses per Short or Long rest has made this species especially Tricky, but I think I've come up with something fun.

Also, for Quick Reflexes I thought that advantage on Dex Saves would be fine once per round, since something like Gnome's get Gnomish Cunning (Advantage on all Mental Saving throws). Mental saves make up for 141 saves presented in monster stat blocks and in Lair actions, whereas Dex only has 110. I'd also argue that mental saves are by and large much more debilitating than Dex saves. But let me know! If you think it is too strong, please tell me how I could put it more in line with Gnomish Cunning.

Also if their speed is too high, I have considered reducing the base speed to 30, which would let keep the first option for Absolute Speed, and then let the second option be only 35 feet. Either that or make the first option only give Disengage as a Bonus Action.

Please give me any feedback you can! I greatly appreciate it!

Hi there!

I've been creating a ton of Fey species for a homebrew collection, and I'd love to hear any feedback or ideas that people might have for additions and changes.

My current design mindset is to make sure that every player species has their signature trait by an innate ability, and not tied to resource expenditure. If you have any suggestions or changes you‘d make, I’d really appreciate it if you kept those design guidelines in mind. I’m excited to hear what you think!

If you have any suggestions for Fey that you'd like to see, Let me know!
