A Time for Time Magic; Chronomancer Wizards

Time magic is as awesome as it is potentially problematic. From the sheer strength of the possible effects to the amount of bookkeeping it requires to keep it all straight, there are plenty of reasons for players to avoid it. That said, we here at Arcana Uncorked think it is cool, Andrew even played a time mage in an old 3.5 game. And we think there are ways to do it that don't break either the meta or your DM's brain. Today we discuss three Wizard subclasses that bill themselves as Chronomancers, the mostly official one from Wildemount, and 2 homebrew takes. Which is best for your group? Only your future self can say! The Chronurgy Wizard can be found in the Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, available at your local game store. The chronomancy Wizard by the Middle Finger of Vecna can be found here: <a href="https://mfov.magehandpress.com/2015/05/the-chronomancer.html" target="_blank">https://mfov.magehandpress.com/2015/05/the-chronomancer.html</a> The Chronomancy Wizard by u/TehlaltheAllTelling (whose name we absolutely butchered this episode, sorry) can be found here: <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/UnearthedArcana/comments/eywubu/arcane_tradition_chronomancer_finished_1_year/" target="_blank">https://www.reddit.com/r/UnearthedArcana/comments/eywubu/arcane_tradition_chronomancer_finished_1_year/</a> Chronomancy Spells and the Circle of Time Druid by Old Gus (u/callmepartario) can be found in his Hero's of the Multiverse Compendium, here: <a href="https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Qv-U43kH066mbaeu9dLNeqmDpsdQW6CW" target="_blank">https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Qv-U43kH066mbaeu9dLNeqmDpsdQW6CW</a> We talk a bit about the Valda's Spire of Secrets Kickstarter in the episode, a new expansion book by Mage Hand Press (the publishing arm of the middle finger of Vecna. I am sorry to say that the window to back the book has passed (Andrew was slow at editing). Hopefully in the future we will get episodes out in a more timely manner. That said, you can probably look forward to some content from that book being featured on the podcast soon, as we caved in and backed it ourselves.

Titanic Creatures from the ABYSS

At what point is a monster no longer a monster? If it is the size of a skyscraper what makes the heros think they can possibly kill it? It may have hit points, but if you can't hit a vital organ then HP doesn't make sense either. In this episode we look at two Titanic Homebrew monsters from the Haven Discord's All Beneath Yonder Sea and Streams (ABYSS) Compendium and talk about what you can do as a DM to make epic encounters with Gargantuan monsters make sense. While doing so, we also discuss how you can make aquatic combat more friendly for players, as these monsters come from deep under the sea.

The Ranger, part 1

Is there anything to be said about the Ranger that has not already been said many times? Probably not, but collating the thoughts of many into the opinions of the two must be worth something. So in this episode Pat and Andrew begin a series of talks about the Ranger with a very simple question "What is a Ranger?". We talk about the class features that make a Ranger feel like the fantasy character you want to play, while also noting where the published material falls short of that fantasy. In coming episodes we will drive into reworks of the Ranger, and see if any of them hit the themes we talk about today. We mentioned a few homebrews in this episode that we will be diving deeper into later. But should you want them now here they are.
