D&D shadow blade 5e, an upcoming supplement to the 5th edition of Dungeons & Dragons, will launch on Kickstarter in just two days, on December 18th, 2018. The book promises to offer new player races and classes, as well as two entirely new campaigns – perfect for beginning and veteran players alike. Here’s what you need to know about this new D&D product!
As we mentioned on a recent livestream, we’re super excited to be working on a new book. We’re thrilled to announce that Book of Shadows will release late spring 2018. This new sourcebook will be available as a hardcover, with a full-color cover and black & white interior (we know you love your illustrations). This book is designed to act as an expansion on their class books.
Long ago, elemental spirits roamed freely throughout Shadow. These powerful spirits were hunted to near extinction by a group of warriors known as blade-weavers. After vanquishing them, they bound these creatures within a book of shadows so they could no longer roam free. The blade-weavers then became wardens of shadow to hunt down any remaining shadow beasts that escaped their prisons.

New races and classes are always exciting, but they can also shake up an existing game in a huge way. Depending on what you’re playing, it might be more exciting to see a new sourcebook (especially if it includes some homebrew), or maybe something that updates old feats and magic items is more appealing. Here are a few of our favorite things we can’t wait to get our hands on
The answer is simple, depending on your group and how you play. There are advantages and disadvantages to every class, but to start with one of my personal favorites: The Warlock. Warlocks can use some of their features from other classes (Necromancy and Arcane) to dish out damage or give themselves utility that a pure warlock character might lack. This opens up some options for players who want a more diverse character without having to play two characters at once.
There are several modules published by WotC that contain settings and story lines that could easily fit into a Shadowfell Campaign. Some of these include: Curse of Strahd (A Ravenloft Story), Princes of the Apocalypse, Out of The Abyss, Storm King’s Thunder and more.
One of our players was wondering how we were going to be bringing Shadowfell alive in our campaign. With a few ideas, we decided to turn him into a creature that is actually more of an inspiration then actual Shadow. We thought about what Shadow means, and one thing really stood out to us – darkness, or better yet – shadow . . . Just as dusk is not so dark as it is just before nightfall, shadow isn’t as bad as it seems either!
As with all things Dungeons & Dragons there is always some confusion. The answer to how Tyranny of Dragons (September 2014) and Rise of Tiamat (March 2015) modules are connected to Dungeons & Dragons: Elemental Evil will be answered in a book called Sword Coast Adventurer’s Guide. We can expect that book in November 2014.
