Playable Skaven Class for Lamentations of the Flame Princess

 

As usual, I wanted a Skaven class for LotFP, as I have a ton of Skaven miniatures. This allows players to pick a Skaven PC, or create leveled Skaven NPCs if you so wish.

Playable Orc Class for Lamentations of the Flame Princess

 

Did you find yourself wanting a playable Orc class for Lamentations of the Flame Princess, or maybe just a stat block so you don't have to think about it? This incarnation of Orc is the kind of self-regenerative, kick-in-the-door fighter you want on your dungeon romps. These abilities won't save the Orc from the most gruesome traps available in LotFP modules, but players who enjoy tank-style characters may want to pick up the option for a PC or retainer.

Dark Sun for Lamentations of the Flame Princess

The wife and I have been hard at work preparing Dark Sun for Lamentations of the Flame Princess. Whilst we didn't manage to complete this one over the weekend, we're pretty damned close. Included is the Thri-Kreen, the Half-Giant, the Gladiator, the Mul, rules on piecemeal armor, non-metal weapons, and wild talents! Pretty much everything you need to start playing.

In the future we hope to add the Templar and the Psionicist, both of which are the most difficult. My current idea for the Psionicist is Magic-User that requires no hands to cast, cannot do M-U activities, can use any ability in their arsenal without prior memorization, and has an ability list that reflects psionics rather than magic. Comments, praise, criticism are all appreciated! Tell me what you think, and if you like it, share it!

Parn Playtest II: A Bard for LotFP

In the interest of making a character for (my wife) Ellie to solo-romp around the "Eastern Wastelands" with, we made the Bard a LotFP class. This variation of the Bard is heavily based on 1e AD&D, and also adds a new skill, "Lore" to the game.

Parn Playtest Packet: Two New Classes For LotFP

Our game world has no 'short races' -- we cut out the Dwarves and Halflings and have replaced them with two of our own classes, which we've been testing out for a little bit now. The first is the Barbarian, inspired by Korgoth of Barbaria, Conan, Fire and Ice, and early 80's heavy metal imagery. In a land similar to Cimmeria (Conan's homeland,) the environment breeds men that can do far more damage with a weapon than most others. Their skill is needed to best the sorcerers, and the giant beasts that roam the land. They are needed to one-hit-kill the many men that would battle in large hectic environments.

The Barbarian gets a damage bonus equal to one plus his level, allowing him to do a lot more "guaranteed" damage against men and beasts alike. How many times have you swung at something in LotFP that had maybe 3-5 HP, only to roll a 1 or 2 on damage? The Barbarian doesn't stand for that nonsense. Expect serious wounds, even dismemberment.

The other class is a caste of near-Elves called the Felaness. These pointy-eared humanoids have small, sometimes indistinguishable cat features -- stripes, spots, eyes, or claws. Feared and hated as impoverished wanderers and/or genetic abnormalities, they live hectic lives which often calls for unusual talents. The inspiration is a little bit Thundercats, a little bit Skyrim, with the need coming from a removal of the Halfling class.

The Felaness gets some of the better saves available, while not being quite as hardy as LotFP's Halfling. The Felaness does not have a weapon restriction, but still has a great bushcraft ability. Those who take up this path also get a great stealth ability where cover is available, as the Felaness are adept at hiding in a pinch. You also get one of the better exp per level rates, better than the Halfling (but not as good as the Specialist.)

The following PDF is a rough idea of our two classes. We'd appreciate any feedback you have on how to make them better!
