The Monster Mash: Submission Thread (5e Base Class Contest)

[Just to Browse]

Welcome to the 5e D&D Base Class Contest 28!

Our voted theme for this next contest is…

The Monster Mash (Part 3)!
Write a class that brings a member of team monster over to team PC. Got a favorite monster you always wanted to play? Did you just really like 3.5's infamous monster progression classes or racial substitution levels? Do you just feel like Dungeons and Dragons should include more dragons? Well, write a base class about it!

We are trying a new rule for this contest!

Short Classes: Your base class doesn't need to be a full 20 levels for you to submit it. You can write up a class that only goes up to a monster's CR like monster base classes of old, a Prestige Class like from the prestige classes from Unearthed Arcana, a class that starts at level 10 like the Mythos classes from Xefas, or anything in between. Please include a quick note at the start of your class that describes how it's different. Additional details like suggested multiclasses are also nice.

Spoiler: Contest Rules

Show

• The subclass you homebrew should fit the theme. You can interpret the theme as broadly as you like without risk of disqualification, but doing so may reduce your chances of earning votes during the voting period.
• You may only create one subclass. If you create more than one subclass then you must choose which one to enter and remove all the others from this thread and the contest (making them invalid). If you do not specify which one you favor by the time voting begins, all of your content is invalid.
• When you submit your subclass you must create a post on this thread which either has the content or holds a link to it. You may also optionally create one other individual thread for your class on the homebrew design sub-forum. If it is found that you have revealed your class on another site or on another thread than one on the homebrew design sub-forum, your entry will be considered invalid. If you do make a specific thread for your class, please mention its involvement to the competition in that thread. If you use external formatting resources such as Homebrewery, or GMBinder it is recommended that you also create a PDF of the content and share it here.
• You may use other homebrew content (such as feats, spells, magical items, monsters, and base class) or even features to supplement your subclass, provided you have permission from the original creator and provide links to the source. Failure to receive permission from the original creation will disqualify you from entry in the current contest.
• Your subclass must have fully completed mechanics and descriptions for it to be valid. Entries are due by 11:59 PM Central Time on the deadline. Any submissions after this point are invalid. No changes can be made to your class while voting is taking place. Failure to comply with the previous rule will result in disqualification.
• Any content which has been declared invalid by the rules above cannot be voted for, but you may decide to remove it from the contest and create another subclass instead. If you are disqualified then you are not allowed to enter any more homebrew for this competition, though you may still vote and later enter the next competition.
• Please note that misunderstandings occur, if you break a rule which results in disqualification it might be excused if you can convince the group that it was a result of confusion over the rules.
• As a brewer, you may include non-homebrew content alongside your submission, like design rationales or the math you used to determine certain features. However, please keep this extraneous content separate from the main content, such as in a spoiler or a separate post. Reviewers aren't obligated to read these notes before voting.

Contests stay up for 6 weeks unless an extension is requested by participants. Voting threads then go up for 2 weeks before the next contest begins.
