Overview


Seeing all the beautiful things the BG3 modding community released, my will to create something myself become more and more present. So here it is, my class mod, my own baby. This is a completely original class, I know litteraly next to nothing of DnD. My class may not be lore accurate at all sorry for that. It's an adaptation for bg3 of a class I'm willing to add in a secret projet.

The concept of the class is simple  You're possessed by a powerful evil being, which gives you its power in exchange of your life. Every time you communicate with it (represented by expending the class custom ressource  Dark Communions), he devours you and thus, you take damage. Since those damage shouldn't be able to get mitigated, being resistant to it changes nothing (I couldn't bother doing more to prevent the mitigation). The base class let's you choose between a more martial or spellcaster playstyle, but it's always designed to be a high-risk high-reward playstyle. The specialisation comes with the subclasses.

The base class is pretty simple, and doesn't give that much by itself. The 3 subclasses are the really interesting part so let's get into it.

The First Subclass is the Tainted Warlord. As its name implies, this one is a martial class. It has access to a fighting style and can choose 2 Wicked Tactics (homemade manoeuvres). It also has a passif to make it more resilient against spells.

The Second Subclass is Delirium's Screech. This one is the spellcaster one. It mainly features a slight change in the self-harm concept of the main class. Every time it expends a Dark Communion, it not only deal damage to itself but also emits a shriek of pain which damages nearby characters (allies included). It has custom spells for each level (not 5 atm, since the mod isn't fully done yet).

The Third Subclass is the Departed. This is a mixed bag, combining a bit of martial and a bit of spellcasting. Its main feature is that it doesn't take any damage by using dark communions anymore, now it takes damage at the end of each turn when in combat. It also gains bonuses the less life it has.


As of now, the class might be underwhelming. It's a choice  I wanted to make an underwhelming class at first and try to make it better with time rather than making a powerhouse at start. The mod isn't fully done yet, represented by the version number, but I'm releasing it now as I need testers to spot the eventual bugs.

Many thanks to https://www.deviantart.com/mythaiart who let me use one of its art httpswww.deviantart.commythaiartartGhost-of-vengence-34-1006305328 for my mod (its a passive).
