We've spent August making it easier than ever to play a cool character in your next D&D game.

Wizard and Warmage Updates

Unlock the secrets of the arcane with the Expanded Wizard! This collection of 5.5E subclasses and spells offers only the finest wizardry for your next character.

Discover 13 new and updated Wizard subclasses, each focusing on their own subset of arcane magic. Evolve your custom companion as a Familiar Master, manipulate smoke and fog as a Fumaturge, or summon cheese (yes, literally) as a Tyromancer!

The Complete Warmage got a major update this month as well! The Complete Warmage now includes:

  • Foundry Module: 5.0E + 5.5E
  • Custom Warmage Character Sheets for each subclass: 5.5E + select 5.0E

However you play your Warmage, you'll find it supported in the Complete.

Find us at your friendly local game store

Supporting your local game store is a great way to build community around the hobbies you love. That's why we created a list of stores who stock Mage Hand Press games, and keep it updated whenever we ship to a new store. Here are the new stores from August!

Easier to play Mage Hand Press

We've added a lot of resources to the blog this month to make it easier for you to bring what we make to your table.

Custom Character Sheets

We've released a character sheet for every base class in 5Eβ€”Mage Hand Press classes as well as all 12 core classes. You and your GMs can get away from PDFs or books and dive into the game.

You can find them on our blog, no purchase or sign up required!

Go to Character Sheets in the top menu on our website or click the link below.

Class Guides

We've been building a library of how-to guides for our 5E base classes. This month we covered the newest addition to the Mage Hand Press roster, the Dancer.

Encounters: Mornhart

The great solar deer on the cover of Book of Extinction fits right into worlds replete with gods of the dawn, the sun, and light itself.

Here are three encounters you can steal for your next session and introduce this monster inspired by a real-life extinct animal, the Eucladoceros.

Valda's 5.5E Kickstarter

Valda's Spire of Secrets will return in hardcover, better than ever! Our work on the Dancer, Expanded Wizard and Complete Warmage is part of how we're bringing the ultimate player expansion for 5.5E to Kickstarter next year.
