D&D Tutorials and homebrew

Welcome to the one-stop spot for D&D 5e goodness. look below for some examples of what I've made and how you also can make it.

D&D 5e how to play

5e is among the easiest editions of D&D to play, but there are still some things that need to be explained. one of the most important things to learn is the various dice and how they are usually used. first off are the dice we use, the polyhedral dice. we got our 20 sided die (named d20), the 12 sided die (named d12), the 10 sided die (named d10), the 8 sided die (named d8), the standard six sided die (named d6), and the four sided die (named d4, though I like calling it the cattletrop). There is also a special type of die which is a 10 sided die that is intended to be used with the d10, called the d100. If your interested in learning more click here.

How to make a Character in 5e

so you want to learn how to make a character in 5e. well lets get you started, first thing first you need some dice, preferably 4d6, as well as a character sheet and pencil. Alternatively you can use one of the plethura of apps people have created for character creation. but this time around we are going to assume you are using the official character sheet from the player's handbook.

Alright, now that you have the character sheet head on over to the page linked below to get the full runthrough.

Creature creation is fun

One of my favorite things to do is create creatures. The statblocks that are being shown are some of my favorites. In the case that you are interested in learning how to make creatures like this, I can teach you. It all started when I finally reached a point in first campaign where the creatures in the books were not so interesting anymore. So I went looking for a guide on how to make creatures, and there are plenty out there, but there is one in particulare that helped me the most. I'm sure you haven't heard of him, but he calls himself the Angry GM. He had this wonderful guide on how to create creatures, but it didn't have much in the way of visual representation. I intend to make things a bit easier for newer people through adding in these visuals. But first, take a look at his guide, it really is a wonderful guide.


There is also this great tool I use to create these statblocks you see. it's simply named dnd 5e monster, but it looks like it got taken down some time ago. However, the internet maintains being a nexus of knowledge, so it is still possible to get it somewhere. who knows, it might make its way here eventually.

I can't stress this enough, please go and check out the Angry GM's guide on how to make monsters. He goes so in depth on what each part of the statblock means and how to manipulate it. I can't possibly write a better guide on how to make creatures than him.
