Likewise like Xanthars Guide, Tashas Cauldron provides its content with commentary, observations, and snark of a storyteller character. This time, rather of a floating crime employer with several eyestalks, its the developer of Tashas Hideous Laughter who functions as the guide.
Dungeons & & Dragons is getting a new book of rules, subclasses, and mechanics this fall, Wizards of the Coast revealed on Monday. The book, entitled Tashas Cauldron of Everything, follows in the custom of 2017s Xanathars Guide to Everything, adding fresh gameplay options to the existing setting instead of a brand-new setting.

For those behind the screen, Tashas Cauldron will have an area for Dungeon Masters with setting-agnostic puzzles and magical environments. Fans will also see the return of the group patrons idea– non-player characters who money and direct travelers– from Eberron: Rising from the Last War, however de-Eberron-ed for any setting.
Tashas Cauldron wont have any brand-new classes, however will rather provide a collection of brand-new subclasses for every released class in 5th edition. These subclasses are all drawn from the extensively play-tested Unearthed Arcana column on the D&D website. There will be new spells too– consisting of at least one developed by Tasha herself– and magic items to drop into your video game.

The most appealing and important statement about Tashas Cauldron is a new and comprehensive set of guidelines for character development. Tashas Cauldron provides an alternate set of character creation guidelines that will do just that. While the character creation guidelines are still readily available in 2014s Players Handbook for anyone who wants to utilize them, Tashas will decouple race and origin from their 5th edition mechanics.

Tashas Cauldron of Everything will be launched on Nov. 17, and will include cover art by Magali Villeneuve. An alternate (and reportedly Easter egg-filled) cover will be offered just in shops with art by Wylie Beckert.
