Homebrew rules

Please visit https://www.deathwish5e.com/How-to-Play/ for a breakdown of our house rules. NORMAL RULES - If the group succeeds at their quest, each player receives a share of treasure, even if your character doesn't survive. - Critical hits deal max die damage plus the roll instead of doubling the dice. - Flanking provides a +2 bonus to attack rolls. - Falling to zero hit points also incurs one level of Exhaustion. HARDCORE CHANGES - If the group succeeds at their quest, each player received a share of treasure plus bonus loot, but only if your character survives. - Falling to zero hit points also incurs two levels of exhaustion. - Enemies have improved stat blocks, which means more health, more damage, and more special abilities. HOUSE RULES Delaying: During combat, you can choose to hold your entire turn, rather than just an action. You do so at the beginning of your turn, after any start of turn effects have taken place, at which point you select a new, lower number in the initiative order. This becomes your initiative for the rest of the encounter, and your turn immediately ends. Any start of turn effects that took place before you delayed in this round do not take place again when you take your delayed turn. Emanations: Damage from Emanation spells entering a creature’s space can only be dealt during the caster’s turn. Prone: Standing up from Prone triggers Opportunity Attacks. 9th Level Spells: 9th level spells cannot be learned except by Deathwish5e cards that grant access to them. Scrolls: Anyone can attempt to use a scroll by making an Arcana check with DC 10 + 2x the level of the spell. Whether you succeed or fail, the scroll is consumed. For example, reading Fireball (level 3) from a spell scroll will require an Arcana check DC 16. Spells Errata The following spells have been modified to better suit Deathwish5e gameplay. Wish: Wish can only be used to duplicate a spell of level 8 or lower. Its other effects are not available, but may be found through cards and other means. Class Changes: Ranger The following Ranger spell has been modified to enhance Ranger’s viability and effectiveness. Hunter’s Mark: When cast by a Ranger, this spell does not require Concentration. Mark Efficiency: At 13th level, instead of gaining the Relentless Hunter feature, Rangers gain Mark Efficiency, a feature that allows them to move their Mark from a slain creature to a new target as a Free Action instead of a Bonus Action.

How HomeBrewed Hobbies creates a safe table

The session is broken down into 2 encounters. Player will be able to step away at anytime, but we will also be taking a break after resolving our only short rest. Players may attend to needs and other matters during this time. Prior to play, the table will be reviewing the deck of player safety to ensure everyone has a fun and enjoyable game experience.
