D&D Homebrew Races - The Bonepuppet / Living Skeletons

Image
      A homebrew race of sentient skeletons for  Dungeons & Dragons  3e/3.5 ; created by  Aboleth Eye !      As always, though this homebrew was made with  D&D  3.5 edition  in mind, with a few tweaks you can absolutely use this material with  Pathfinder  1st edition ! --  Aboleth Eye      Undead are a common breed of monster on the Material Plane (as well as other evil-aligned planes).  While the majority are extremely limited in mind--merely forms of flesh, bone or other remains given dark purpose and hunger--there are many breeds with intelligent sapient minds, almost always for ill.  But even so, most undead creatures lack a will of their own, as the living soul departs upon death.       Many undead, like the humble monstrous skeleton, are easily animated and therefore manipulated by necromancers for menial, malicious tasks.  By the time a dead cr...

      A homebrew race of carnivorous plantfolk for Dungeons & Dragons 3e/3.5 ; created by Aboleth Eye !      As always, though this homebrew was made with  D&D  3.5 edition  in mind, with a few tweaks you can absolutely use this material with  Pathfinder  1st edition ! --  Aboleth Eye      In the deep woodlands and jungles of the land, you may find areas completely abandoned of animal or human life.  Or rather, warmblooded creatures avoid entering the domain--for they know an Alraune resides among the trees and vines.  These predatory and seductive plantfolk do not just require flesh and bone, they enjoy the taste.  And they reside in the most dangerous territories as cunning man-eating abominations, luring travelers to their dooms.        The Alraune are a race of sentient plantfolk that were first discovered in the unexplored depths of rainforests and marshl...

Image
    A homebrew Ranger variant class for Dungeons & Dragons 3e/3.5 edition , created by Aboleth Eye !  Finally, you can play as the dedicated spear-wielding hunter, dashing across the field of battle to face a behemoth without fear!  Inspired by the Final Fantasy dragoon archetype and heroes of ancient Greek myth!      As always, though this homebrew was made with  D&D  3.5 edition  in mind, with a few tweaks you can absolutely use this material with  Pathfinder  1st edition ! --  Aboleth Eye      A dragoon is a mighty warrior focused on slaying monstrosities and surviving everything beasts throw at them.  Their dedication borders on obsession, often leading to their ironic deaths at the hands of beasts.  The obsession borders on addiction; for if a dragoon hears of a terrible beast (kindly or vile) they cannot resist the urge to grab their weapon and charge in regardless of circumstance....
