Tempest: A Seafarer's Sourcebook | Piracy Remastered for 5e! · 1,092 following
Storm roils in the skies, across the seas, and in the hearts of those that brave the dark, treacherous, waters of this place, this Tempest. It is the unknown mists of destiny lying low and fulgurous across its horizon, waiting for the courageous or the foolish to chase it down. Eager to swallow legends, and leave only the bones of myth. This is a place of fortune, a world of mystery. Here the weather turns on a coin, and fate is never too far behind. Climb aboard if you think you’ve the mettle, brandish your iron and let loose your steel; but remember, there are none alive that can tame these wild seas, and many dead who thought otherwise…
The quintessential seafarer’s sourcebook for 5e and 5.5 returns, remade and remastered for a new age of sail! Enjoy 300+ pages, including 100+ pages of brand new content, printed in high quality with beautiful new artwork collected in a gloriously remastered hardback. Now you too can step aboard a world of sea and storm, where piracy and maritime commerce battle the elements themselves in search of treasures lost to the deep!
More than just setting and storm awaits you inside the pages of Tempest:
5 species native to Tempest, including the cephlapodic Cuttlefolk & the misty Foglin!
12 swashbuckling subclasses, including the College of Shanties Bard & the Powder Monkey Fighter!
A brand new Witch subclass, the treacherous Coven of the Sea!
A fully overhauled ship system, for customising and running your very own sail ship both in and out of combat!
A buccaneers bestiary full of maritime monsters from both above and below the waves!
A pirate lords hoard of original items and spells, as well as additional rules and feats for crafting your perfect pirate campaign.
Tempest provides the resources you need to run swashbuckling games with 5e and 5.5, but it also presents a rich world in which to set those adventures:
The Great Storm. At the heart of Tempest lies the great storm, swirling in endless mystery, swallowing islands one by one as they helix into its strange mists.
Island Cultures. Each island you sail to in Tempest brings with it a new culture, new challenges, and new adventure. Be it the birdlike Kara Kara of the Spiceclaw isles, or the Greco-Roman sea elves of Archaois, no two ports are alike in these sea…
Pirates and Privateers. There are worse things in these waters than monsters. You’ll need to keep a weather eye if you want to stay afloat against the likes of the Pirate Lords of Atigi, or the cunning company men of the West Tihini Trade Company. Here be the politics of iron and lead shot, where flintlock and cutlass are as important as guile and rapier wit! Those who back a physical tier within the first 48 hours will receive the Leviathan Metal d20 completely free! So follow along now to ensure you don’t miss launch, and your opportunity to capture this exclusive piece of booty!
