5e: How to Homebrew Archetypes (Subclasses).Narrative: How do you become a member of this class? What powers it?.One of 5e’s core design values is simplicity. With that in mind, let’s explore how you can go about brewing your own home stuff. Putting on a game-designer hat and getting to work on homebrew might sound like a daunting task at first, but 5e’s design makes it quite approachable. Take it from a guy who made a Cat Patron (more on that later) for warlocks with the express purpose of seeing his girlfriend’s eyes light up. A lot of homebrew comes from players’ unmet needs by the official content or creators’ desires to explore the possibilities of D&D as a medium/set of mechanics. Unofficial D&D content produced in a hobbyist or semi-professional fashion is broadly called homebrew by the game’s community. I also have a couple homebrew class archetypes up on the DM’s Guild.

In the D&D campaigns I’m currently playing or DMing, there is a lot of unofficial content going on: I play Matt Mercer’s gunslinger, a friend plays his bloodhunter-two homebrews so ubiquitous a new player might mistake them for official-there’s a Fire Domain cleric and a Death-Touched sorcerer (which I co-designed with a fellow DM), plus heaps of original monsters, items, and more.
