Hello, fellow adventurers!

What if your magic items grew stronger alongside your character? Well, now they can :)

Today, I'm excited to share a 20-page preview of The Vault of Ascending Items, now discounted on DriveThruRPG!

What's Inside?

A Collection of 50 Ascending Items, magic items capable of scaling through leveling or questing. Each item in this collection has 4 rarities (ranging from Uncommon to Legendary), meaning you are not just getting 50 items, but a total of 200 distinct items, uniquely balanced to be a powerful addition at each rarity without disrupting the game balance. A series of rules, guidelines, and balance considerations are included within the compendium to scale these items depending on the intended power level of your campaign, along with many different scaling methods and suggestions.
Each item in this collection comes with one or more accompanying handouts to share with players, also included as separate image files to be used within your adventures.

12 Premade Ascension Quests, each meant to be used to ascend the items within the compendium or to be employed as additional quests and short adventures to include within your games. A table is also included to provide 50 ideas for simpler quests (one for each item within the manual) that can be pursued by players without disrupting the flow of the campaign. Each quest covers a unique location, featuring an interesting plot hook, monsters, environmental challenges, and riddles, while also possessing multiple tiers of play by adjusting the challenges depending on the adventurers' level.

30 New Creatures and Monsters, all used within the quests included in the manual or summoned by certain Ascending Items. All these creatures are multi-tiered, offering varied levels of challenge and complexity to shape your quests and encounters. The monsters include Treants, Corrupted Dryads, Greater Elementals, Wizards, and many more.

A Table with 100 Additional Ascending Items Concepts, providing the name and a brief overview for each without providing mechanical rules. This is designed to provide GMs with ideas to create their own scaling items without having to come up with new concepts on their own.

The compendium just received a v2.0 update, featuring brand-new artwork and illustrations, expanded compatibility with both 5E and 5.5E, balance adjustments, several new spells, general layout improvements, and more! or the occasion, you can find it discounted either on DriveThruRPG or my Patreon, alongside a vast collection of previews for this and all my other titles! I'm currently working on updated version of all my older manuals, so there's a lot to uncover :)

You can also find this manual (and many more) discounted on my 300+ Mythological Items for 5E and 5.5E Kickstarter! This project brings weapons, treasures, and relics from Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Asian, Mesoamerican, and many other mythologies to 5E and 5.5E, including scaling items that grow alongside your characters. If you’d like to bring a piece of these legends to your table, check out the campaign!

Enjoy 😊

Introduced in the first few years of the Markov War (2596-2607), the Horizon Arms entry into the PITCHFORK program was an absolute disaster to begin with. Its adoption was poorly-timed for the war, introducing a staggeringly complex multi-layer logistical and training conundrum to a military machine already looking down the barrel, so to speak, of a war it already knew it likely could not win. Replacing the venerable CC6, known for being extremely simple and reliable, the CL7 variant was by far the most common variant of the NGLAP adopted. Its performance in the war left troops wanting; they frequently complained of thermal issues, issues with field maintenance and repairs caused by complexity, and a plethora of problems with the new helical rail design.

Over two decades after the Colonies lost the Markov War, Horizon Design Team Alpha was tasked with making a major overhaul to the platform. The near-collapse of the CSR meant no one had altered or cancelled orders to build new factories or retool fabricator lines in order to halt NGLAP production in time to stop the proliferation of the CL7 and other variants, and so the team had a daunting challenge: produce an upgrade kit that makes the platform worthy of its name. Fully actualize the ambition that made it into an overengineered paperweight.

They succeeded. By the advent of the Garden War in 2667, the PITCHFORK winner and all of its variants had a few decades of an improved reputation. It is now known by its wielders for being an inherently Colonial family of weapons; brutally practical, ultra-reliable, powerful, and tough, its lines all pragmatic and perfectly-formed to balance strength and mass. More importantly, it is these qualities that allow Starborne troops to do what they are trained to do: kill tyrants.

This is the second piece in the collection I'm trying to build around my weapons. Let me tell you more about this, a deck that defines the destiny of your soul after death...

I welcome any feedback!

First piece from a collectible-style weapon card series I’m building.

I’m exploring narrative-driven weapon design combined with rarity systems and presentation layout.

Feedback is welcome.

Designed in 1891 as a high powered pistol by Howard Stein. Its massive 17x55mm round has caused issues for its shooter due to ungodly recoil even with the recoil system.

Told my dudearonie that I’d have this design sent to him 2 MONTHS AGO. But now I’m second guessing the design, because I feel like it’s not that good anymore. So I need advice before I do the finished drawing of it. (its for his DND campaign btw)

Lore- a river nymph made it on accident while attempting a party trick (gone wrong). Then it ended up getting thrown into the river, and turning into something the ppl can find as a quest or something.

How it works + - When you hit something with it, bubbles squirt out from the opposite side from the blue squirters on the side. (The top part is made out of some type’a crytal material.

Inspo for creation- While I was doing the dishes, I slammed the dish soap bottle onto the counter to kill a roach, causing bubbles to squirt out of the opening top of the dish soap bottle. It felt rlly cartoony and I instantly got the bubble hammer idea.

I don‘t think dudearonie wants to be friends with me anymore either, so I at least wanna give them the final file before I break off the friendship (which I’m totally not bothered by or sad abt)
