Richly written & illustrated by Antonio Demico of Pointy Hat Studios, Hexbound gives players & game masters the tools to add the magic of witchcraft and witches into their games!
In 5th Edition, terms like wizard, sorcerer, or warlock have specific meanings, and in the same way, Hexbound gives the word “witch” new meaning. This extensive lore allows you to create deeper, more complex character backstories that give your GM all kinds of tools to use when integrating your character's story into their larger world.
All the content in the book, from witch subclasses to witchy adventures, can be used as an addition to your existing campaign or as the bedrock for a completely new witch-themed adventure!
Hexbound is a witchy supplement for 5th Edition. It gives both players and game masters all the necessary tools to add the magic of witchcraft and witches into their games.
Hexbound is designed to be as easy to use as possible for both players and game masters. All the content in the book, from witch subclasses to witchy adventures, can be used as an addition to your existing campaign or as the bedrock for a completely new witch-themed adventure!
The book offers content for both players and GMs alike, with new witch subclasses, spells, familiars, and backgrounds as well as ready-to-run, fully illustrated adventures, magical items, new creatures, and more!
Instead of adding a new class, Hexbound uses the familiar and beloved framework of the traditional 5e classes to allow you to make incredibly diverse witches.
Thanks to Witch Subclasses, your character could be your traditional witch, slinging powerful spells or brewing magical potions to empower their friends and doom their enemies, or something completely different, like a melee fighter who punches spiritual energy into the bodies of their foes, or a spellcaster who uses the magic of spirits and the training of their witch mentor to empower their familiar to fight for them!
You have the opportunity to bring the iconic archetype of the witch and the magic of witchcraft to character creation, but that’s not where it ends. Along with Witch Subclasses, Hexbound comes with Familiars, Backgrounds, and extensive Witch Lore that allow you to integrate witches into 5th Edition and create deep, interesting backstories.
Hexbound includes an absurd amount of witch-themed magical items from potions, to wands, hats, shoes, and more! They are all lovingly illustrated and can be used in any adventure as rewards (or punishment) for your players.
The book's adventures are packed full of new creatures created for this book. All of their stat blocks are included for your convenience, and they can, of course, be used in any future adventures outside of those offered in Hexbound! These creatures range from aberrations, to constructs, to other witches with unique magical abilities.
A brand new set of familiar companions comes within the pages of Hexbound. They correspond to very different witchy aesthetics, and give any kind of player a companion that matches that specific witchy vibe.
A skeletal dog, a cat covered in ethereal fire, a fish that can predict the weather, or a floating goat’s head that can make a prophecy a day -- these are some, but not all, of the witchy familiar companions hidden in the pages of Hexbound.
The Hexbound book offers new adventures full of witches who can either help or hinder your players. Instead of simple, combat-centric dungeon runs, Hexbound offers a variety of types of adventures, sampled below:
An unconventional murder mystery that takes place in an enchanted magical circus. Perfect to break up some heavy dungeoneering with a different kind of adventure. The plot is innovative and different from your standard murder mystery, and there's an abundance of clues already lined up and designed to lead your players to the answer, extravagant NPCs, and opportunities for combat to happen!
A court intrigue adventure taking place at a masked ball where the next High Witch of an influential coven will be chosen. It's fantastic for groups that enjoy extremely high-stakes social encounters, making important decisions that affect the outcome of the adventures, but also features possible combat encounters for those that crave those climactic fights!
