World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

5E RPG CONVERSION
Version 2.4

“The sands of time have run out.”

-Medivh, the last Guardian
Many have waited for Blizzard to approve another conversion of their world to the tabletop playing realm.
Alas, many waited in vain.
“We will persevere.”
-The Blood Elves.
However, tabletop players are well-known for their persistence and tenacity in getting what they want to
play--or at least, satisfying themselves with an adequate enough replica.
“Sometimes, the hand of Fate must be forced.”
-Illidan Stormrage.
And thus, the WoW RPG 5e Project begun.
This conversion is of the much-loved World of Warcraft Role Playing Game, as for 5th edition of Dungeons
and Dragons, made by the fans, for the fans.
This not only includes special classes, races, and magical spells, but also includes magical items, and even
a few subsystems built in the streamlined format of 5th edition, for the benefit of all roleplayers.
Project Start: Aug 27, 2015
Edition (Content updates only): Beta released on Oct 11, 2015, current version 2.4

Magic. Some spells are changed in function or name. All such spells are referred to with their new names,
rather than their old names. Mana and set spells is also used as a core magic system, not spell slots. Mana
restores over time, while resting, by drinking certain potions, and with certain abilities that restore mana
instantaneously at the cost of future regeneration.
A character can only benefit from a non-rest based mana restorative effect per hour.
Holy Light heals the living and harms the dead, and vice versa for Death Coil. Priests, Paladins, and Death
Knights can cast Holy Light or Death Coil (and Heal and Harm), and Druids and Shamans must use their
own variations on the two spells (Rejuvenation and Tranquility for druids, and Riptide and Healing Stream
for Shamans)

Classes. As detailed below, some classes gain different abilities to better synergize with the mana system,
while others are renamed as above.

Aura Effects. Certain effects grant bonuses to AC, attack, or saving throws that are based off morale-
based sources. A bear’s primal roar, a paladin’s confident presence, or an archmage’s proximity. These are
collectively known as aura bonuses, and do not stack with one another.

Languages. Spoken languages in Azeroth are Common (spoken by humans, and most other races),
Draconic (restricted; spoken by dragons), Dwarven (spoken by dwarves), Eredun (restricted; spoken by
demons, see below), Gnomish (spoken by gnomes), Elven (Darnassian, spoken by Night Elves and
Thalassian, spoken by Highborne and High Elves), Goblin (spoken by goblins), Kalimag (spoken by
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

elementals, Ignan for fire, Aquan for water, Terran for earth, and Auran for air elementals), Low Common
(Spoken by furbolgs, gnolls, kobolds, ogres, most humanoids and giants), Orcish (spoken by orcs), Nazja
(spoken by Naga), Taur-ahe (spoken by Tauren), and Titan (spoken by titans), Draenei (spoken by
Draenei, Broken and Lost Ones)
Restricted languages may only be granted as racial or class features. Languages must also be learned
from a source.

Eredun Curse. Demons of the Burning Legion speak the tongue of their kind, Eredun, which has
splatterings of Titan. Any non-demonic creature that deliberately speaks Eredun without being also bound
to demons (such as a Warlock), must make a Spirit save every year (DC 14) or lose 1 point of Spirit, and
shift one step towards Lawful Evil. If the character is Evil, the save must still be done, and the spirit loss
remains until the character serves the Burning Legion in a substantial way (according to its capabilities).
After doing so, the lords of the Legion may remove this curse. This is a Curse effect.

Incorporeality and Etherealness. The Warcraft universe does not transit into the ethereal plane present in
other settings, and thus all ethereal movement is incorporeal movement instead.
Incorporeal creatures gain damage resistance to all non magical weapons, and resistance to all energy
types except Arcane, Holy, and Fel. They may also go through solid objects such as walls (treating
movement as difficult terrain), but take 5 (1d10) Arcane damage if ending their turn within one. They are
also naturally invisible, but are not naturally silent. They cannot attack non incorporeal creatures or cast
spells, but may handle force effects as normal (such as by pushing, casting force spells, or attacking with
force weapons). Force walls prevent incorporeal creatures to pass through them.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Chapter 2: Races
The races of Warcraft are diverse and rich. Each race has a role in the world, and their deeds resonate
through the ages. Members of each race view each other with assumptions formed by past conflicts and
alliances. Warcraft’s history is troubled and epic, and every aspect influences the races, their beliefs and
their roles.
This chapter describes Ironforge, Wildhammer and Dark Iron dwarves, High and Night elves, gnomes,
goblins, humans, orcs, tauren, jungle and forest trolls, and the undead Forsaken. These races are not the
only races in the Warcraft world, but they are the most dominant, influential, and prone to adventuring.

Mountain Dwarf (Bronzebeard)
“For Khaz Modan!”
As a mountain dwarf, you probably hail from the
Bronzebeard clan and its allies, and live in Khaz
Modan. Ironforge dwarves are stout and powerful,
with short muscular bodies, and prefer tying their
hair (male or female) in ornate braids.
Affiliation. Alliance. While the dwarves of
Ironforge appreciate the fighting skill of the Horde,
it is with grim eyes that they look upon the orcs
and their allies, the trolls and the Forsaken.
Although the dwarves have held dealings of
commerce and diplomacy with the high elves,
they keep the people of Quel’Thalas at an arm’s
distance. While the night elves may share the
same allegiances, the dwarves look upon them
with suspicion and some trepidation. Humans,
however, are the staunch and constant allies of
the dwarven people and find welcome, favor and
kindness when in dwarven lands.

Darklands Dwarf (Dark Iron)
“You shall serve.”
As a darklands dwarf, you probably hail from the
Dark Iron clans, lead by the Sorcerer-thane
Thaurissan. Reviled as betrayers of their fellow
dwarves, and living in the mountain-halls of
Blackrock Mountain, Dark Iron dwarves are
slaves to the great elemental Firelord Ragnaros,
and serve him in the latent volcanic mountain.
Dark Irons seem identical to Ironforge dwarves,
except that their skin tones are ashen and gray,
and their eyes are golden-red.
Hoarse of voice and prone to undertone
muttering, Dark Irons do not inspire trust easily.
Version 2.4
Affiliation. Independent. Hatred comes to Dark
Iron dwarves against all races, and in their
service to Ragnaros, they see only rivals,
potential thralls, and enemies.

proficiency with firearms and explosives of all
types, even if you do not have proficiency in
engineering.

damage.
Male Names. Beld, Franclorn, Lokhtos, Grall.
Female Names. Aster, Channis, Mogran, Wellia.
Family Names. Angerforge, Darkbargainer,

Draenei
“The Legion’s end draws near.”
As one of the enlightened cousins of the Eredar,
the Draenei arrived in Azeroth after the reopening
of the Dark Portal. Living out the last centuries in
exile and escape from the Burning Legion, the
Draenei are steadfast champions of the Light, and
will do anything in their power to prevent another
world from falling to the Flame.
Draenei Traits
Ability Score Increase. Your Strength increases
by 2, and your Spirit increases by 1.
Age. A typical draenei claims adulthood around
100 years old, and can live to about ten thousand
years old. As befitting their Eredar heritage,
Draenei have hooved feet, tendrils that grow from
the neck and short tails. Males’ skulls are rigid
(giving the appearance of a bone plate under their
skin), while females grow foot-long, graceful
curved horns.
Males range anywhere from seven feet tall to
eight feet tall and weigh on average around 300
or 400 pounds. Females stand at six to seven feet
tall and only weigh around 170 or 250 pounds
when fully grown.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 ft.
Darkvision. You can see in dim light within 60
feet of you as if it were bright light, and in
darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Heroic Presence. You can inspire yourself or
others through your mere presence. To do so,
you use a bonus action on your turn to choose
one creature (even yourself) within 60 feet of you
who can see or hear you. That creature gains one
Heroic die, a d6.
Once within the next 10 minutes, the creature can
roll the die and add the number rolled to one
ability check, attack roll, or saving throw it makes.
The creature can wait until after it rolls the d20
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
before deciding to use the Heroic Presence die,
but must decide before the DM says whether the
roll succeeds or fails. Once the Heroic Presence
die is rolled. it is lost. A creature can have only
one Heroic Presence die at a time. You can use
this feature a number of times equal to your
Charisma modifier (a minimum of once). You
regain any expended uses when you finish a long
rest.
Gift of the Naaru. You can use your bonus action
to channel holy energy, casting the Renewing
Light spell as if cast as a 1st level spell. This can
be used once until a short or long rest.
At 6th level, you gain another use of the ability or
choose to heighten the spell’s effective level to a
3rd level spell. You can make the same choice at
11th and 16th levels (4th or 5th level, or additional
uses). While a creature benefits from this ability,
they have a glowing blue sigil above their
forehead (shedding light equal to Dancing Lights).
Shadow Resistance. You have resistance to fel
damage.
Gemcutting. You are proficient with the
jewelcrafting kit.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write
Common and Eredun. The Eredun Draenei speak
is an altered dialect that is less corrupt, and thus
does not impose penalties when speaking.
Male Names. Kozza, Shunn, Thylon, Velen
Female Names. Fetwa, Daalny, Corevva,
Tanmatra
Family Names. Draenei do not have family
names, but take a title according to their deeds.
Elves
Elven Traits
Ability Score Increase. Your Agility score
increases by 2.
Age. Although elves reach physical maturity at
about the same age as humans, the elven
understanding of adulthood goes beyond physical
growth to encompass worldly experience.
A high elf typically claims adulthood around the
age of 60 and can live to be 750 years old.
A night elf claim adulthood and live up to five
times said age (adulthood at 300 and live up to
3,750 years old). Until the World Tree was
destroyed, the Night Elves were immune to aging
effects.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Darkvision. Accustomed to twilit forests and the
night sky, you have superior vision in dark and
dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60
feet of you as if it were bright light, and in
darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Version 2.4
Mystic Senses. Whenever you make any check
related to magical items, lore, or spells, you are
considered both proficient and having Expertise.
You may apply double your proficiency bonus.
Keen Senses. You are proficient with the
Perception skill.
Elven Combat Training. You have proficiency
with the longsword, longbow, rapier, and
shortbow.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write
Common and Elven (either Darnassian or
Thalassian). Elvish is fluid, with subtle intonations
and intricate grammar. Elven literature is rich and
varied, and their songs and poems are famous
among other races. Many musicians learn Elven
so they can add Elvish ballads to their repertoires.
Subrace. Ancient divides among the elven
people resulted in two main sub-races: high
elves, and night elves, Choose one of these
subraces.
High Elves (Quel’dorei)
“For Quel’Thalas!”
As a high elf, you hail from Silvermoon in
Quel’Thalas or Dalaran. High elves stand slightly
taller than humans do.
The elves are slim, with sharp symmetrical
features, often an exaggeration of perfect beauty.
The high elves are uniformly fair in complexion,
with white to flaxen colored hair. Their eyes are
incredibly intense in color, seeming to glow with
an inner light. While many high elves have blue or
green eyes, violet and red are not unheard of.
Affiliation. Alliance. Most of the high elves have
placed themselves under a self-imposed exile,
ashamed of the damage that they have wrought
upon the world of Lordaeron with their abuse of
arcane magic. While humans still accept the high
elves because of the aid that both races provided
each other during the most recent attacks of the
Burning Legion, many of the other races will only
deal with the high elves if absolutely necessary.
This is especially true after the acts of Kael’thas
Sunstrider.
The night elves in particular do not care for the
company of high elves and in some cases can be
openly hostile toward their sun-blessed brethren.
The passing of time may heal these wounds, but
the use of arcane magic will always draw a rift
between these two breeds of elf.
Size. A high elf is usually a little over 6 feet in
height and weighs between 100 to 175 pounds,
depending on gender.
Ability Score Increase. Your Intelligence score
increases by 1.
High Magic. You know the Prestidigitation cantrip
and can cast it normally (even if you do not have
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
access to spells or cantrips). When you reach 3rd
level, you can also cast Detect Magic as a spell.
When you reach 5th level, you can also cast the
Mute spell.
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for these
spells, and you use your mana pool for these
abilities (even if you are not normally a
spellcaster). While you use such abilities (and
after using them for one hour), your eyes glow a
pale blue.
If you can already cast such spells (and have a
sufficiently high caster level), they are always
prepared for free.
Arcane Legacy: The high elves are uniquely
attuned to magic. If you have levels in a
spellcasting class, you suffer no reductions to
your number of prepared spells, and have two
additional points of mana (+2 MP) above your
normal maximum. If you do not cast spells, you
know an additional cantrip, chosen from the
wizard spell list. Intelligence is your spellcasting
ability for this purpose.
Extra Language. You can speak, read, and write
one extra language of your choice.
Male Names. Mariel, Athaniar, Anandor,
Tharama, Viridiel, Malanior.
Female Names. Anarial, Freja, Driana, Coria,
Alanassori, Azshara.
Family Names. Boughstrider, Dawnblade,
Lightbringer, Morningray, Suntreader.
Blood Elves (Sin’dorei)
“Power! My people are addicted to it... a
dependence made manifest after the Sunwell was
destroyed.”
-Kael’Thas Sunstrider
Following the Third War (year 20), 90% of the
High Elven population was slain during the Siege
of Silvermoon and the Razing of Quel’Thalas.
Prince Kael’Thas Sunstrider renamed his people
the Blood Elves (Sin’dorei) following this terrible
event.
With their homeland destroyed, their forests
burned and corrupted, and their beloved sacred
Sunwell sullied, the Blood Elves underwent mana
withdrawal.
Affiliation. Horde. Most of the blood elves have
joined the New Horde, invited to do so by the
Banshee Queen Sylvanas Windrunner.
Version 2.4
Blood Magic. This acts as High Magic. While you
use abilities granted by this ability, your eyes glow
a pale fel green instead of High Elves’ blue.
Instead of the Prestidigitation cantrip, you may
choose the Thaumaturgy cantrip instead, and
gain the Mana Burn spell instead of Mute.
Note: Blood Elves are identical to High Elves in
racial bonuses and names. However, their culture
is more warped due to their insatiable thirst for
vengeance: most have abandoned worship of the
Light, and their allegiances have also changed,
and most suffer psychologically from extensive
use of mana vampirism (see Chapter 6: Powers
and Magic), due to the Sunwell’s corruption and
subsequent destruction.
A GM is advised to consider applying the mana
withdrawal optional rule with blood elves.
Night Elves (Kaldorei)
"The horn has sounded, and I have come as
promised. I smell the stench of decay and
corruption in our land. That angers me greatly."
-Malfurion Stormrage
As a night elf, you hail from Darnassus in
Kalimdor. The race’s prominent eyebrows, long
pointed ears and natural aspects imply a feral
grace. Skin tones range from pale white to blue or
even ruddy red, and their hair ranges in color
from bright white to woodland green to lustrous
black.
Affiliation. Alliance. The night elves are
members of the Alliance, but they are not the
most trusted or highly regarded members of this
group of races.
Although honorable and just, the night elves’
natural distrust has tainted their relations
somewhat. Combined with their mystical
appearances and mysterious natures, interactions
with other races become uncomfortable at times.
There is a strong streak of isolationism in the
Kaldorei, for they are uncomfortable leaving the
verdant mists of Teldrassil.
Size. Night elves are imposing in stature, males
being on average 7 feet tall. Male Kaldorei are
very muscular, with broad chests and shoulders,
indicative of the strength that lies within both their
minds and bodies.
Female night elves are lithe and curvaceous, yet
still muscular and strong.
Ability Score Increase. Your Spirit score
increases by 1.
Nature Resistance. You have advantage on
saving throws against poison, and you have
resistance against poison and electricity damage.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Mask of the Wild. You can attempt to hide even
when you are only lightly obscured by foliage,
heavy rain, falling snow, mist, and other natural
phenomena.
Shadowmeld. When you are in dim or dark light,
you gain advantage on Stealth checks, and can
Hide as a bonus action.
Male Names. Ilthilior, Mellitharn, Khardona,
Andissiel, Mardant, Tanavar.
Female Names. Keina, Deliantha, Meridia, Freja,
Alannaria, Nevarial.
Family Names. Moonblade, Glaivestorm,
Proudstrider, Oakwalker, Nightwing, Staghorn.
Gnomes
“Up and away!”
As one of the gnomish peoples of the Alliance,
you are comfortable standing with your more
physically and politically-apt allies to cover you as
you go about your businesses. Proficient in the
higher arts of engineering and arcana, gnomes
are behind many developments in the intellectual
and creative sides of the Alliance, creating spells,
gadgets, and vehicles to propel their human,
elven, and dwarven friends (as well as their new
allies in the Alliance) to a better tomorrow.
Gnomish Traits
Ability Score Increase. Your Intelligence score
increases by 2, and your Stamina increases by 1.
Age. Adulthood at 40, can live up to be 500.
Alignment. Alliance. Gnomes are great friends of
the Ironforge dwarves and have fought and died
alongside human soldiers. They are wary of the
high elves, but so is everyone else, so they don’t
feel too bad about that. They battled the Horde in
the Second War and have a bit of a grudge
against orcs, but gnomes are a kindly and
forgiving lot and are willing to give the orcs a
second chance.
Gnomes and goblins have always been rivals —
though whether this rivalry is a friendly or brutal
one depends on the individuals involved. Gnomes
have not been on Kalimdor long enough to form
proper opinions about its denizens. Tauren and
night elves both seem rather rustic for gnome
sensibilities — but they can make friends with
anyone.
Size. Gnomes range from between 3 to 4 feet tall
and average around 40 pounds. Your size is
Small.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 25 feet.
Darkvision. You have superior vision in dark and
dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60
feet of you as if it were bright light, and in
darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Version 2.4
Artificer’s Lore. Whenever you make an
Intelligence (History) check related to magic
items, alchemical objects, or technological
devices, you have expertise instead of just
proficiency.
Escape Artist. You have advantage on all saving
throws to escape grapples, bonds, or other
movement-restricting abilities or effects that
hamper your freedom of movement.
Extra Language. You can speak, read, and write
one extra language of your choice.
Tinker. You have proficiency with the
Engineering skill.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write
Common and Gnomish. The Gnomish language,
which uses the Dwarvish the script, is renowned
for its technical treatises and its catalogs of
knowledge about the natural world.

Goblins
“Time is money, friend!”
Goblins value technology as a useful aspect of
commerce. Some say that their advantage — and
their curse — is to be the primary users of
technology in a world governed by magic. While
dwarves and gnomes share a similar gift, goblin
technology is more far-reaching and sinister and
makes a larger impact on the natural world.
They employ vast teams of engineers who
expand on current technology and produce
gadgets to suit a wide array of applications. They
constantly build and repair machines and work on
new ideas. Unfortunately, goblins alternate
passionate genius with wandering focus. Their
lack of discipline means that many creations end
up half finished as something else catches their
attention.
As one of the goblin-folk, you have a reputation
for money-grabbing, dishonest work, and
unreliability.
Loyalty to money means you always have
customers in a war-torn world.

Age. Goblins typically reach adulthood around 20
years old, and live to be 100 years old.
Affiliation. Independent or Horde. Goblins hired
themselves out to the Horde in the Second War,
but now they belong only to themselves and
whoever pays the most. Constantly building and
inventing requires massive resources, both for
creating the machines themselves and
maintaining those that actually work.
Cannibalizing old machines only partially sustains
this fervent activity of creation, so goblins rely on
trade with as many races and cultures as
possible. They are the quintessential merchants,
peddling all manner of exotic goods for the
highest possible prices.

and average around 40 pounds. Your size is

Forsaken
“We are the forsaken. We will slaughter anyone
who stands in our way”
-Lady Sylvanas Windrunner”
Undead humans and elves freed from the Lich
King’s control during the second stage of the
Third War, the Forsaken are a strange and dark
Version 2.4
force. Hailing from the twisted, skittering darkness
of Undercity, the Forsaken are nominally allied
with the Horde but serve only themselves. Their
objectives are twofold: eliminate the Scourge, and
establish a place for themselves on Azeroth.
Four years ago, the high elven Ranger General
Sylvanas Windrunner fell in combat against the
Scourge. Prince Arthas raised her as a banshee
and compelled her to follow his command. When
the Lich King’s power waned in the incidents
surrounding the Frozen Throne, Sylvanas
harnessed her fury and tore herself free from his
skeletal grasp. She freed many other undead as
well, and recruited powerful allies from the
Burning Legion and the surrounding ogre clans.
Sylvanas dubbed her new force the Forsaken,
and the undead established their capital in the
labyrinthine crypts beneath Lordaeron’s capital
city. Their sprawling, subterranean realm is called
Undercity.
As a forsaken undead, your alliance with the
Horde started out as necessity and convenience,
and your previous life bears witness to the many
tragedies of Azeroth’s reality. Needing both time
and help to fight against their former Scourge
masters, the Forsaken have a reputation of utter
ruthlessness, human experimentation, and moral
ambiguity.
Forsaken traits
You count as undead for the purposes of healing
spells and effects that target undead, or living,
whichever is most disadvantageous. For this
purpose, you cannot be healed by the Holy Light
spell, but are healed by the Death Coil spell, and
can be targeted by the Death Pact and Protection
from Good and Evil. You may declare whether or
not you are of elven or human origin before you
rose, and are counted as being elven or human
much for all intents and purposes that specify
race (such as gaining use of elf and human-
specific weapons).
Ability Score Increase. Two different ability
scores increase by 1.
Age. Forsaken are undead, and thus do not age,
and only die of violence or poisons and diseases
that can affect the undead.
Affiliation. Horde, or independent. Though the
Forsaken do not trust anyone and no one trusts
them, they are members of the Horde and, for
now, do their best to help their allies and placate
their ambassadors. Forsaken have even less love
for the Alliance, particularly because they clash
constantly with the human organization called the
Scarlet Crusade. Some have thrown their lot with
the Burning Legion, believing that only it is potent
enough to defeat the Lich King.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Size. Forsaken vary based on their original form
before death—those who were medium before
death are medium.
Shadow Resistance. You have resistance to Fel
damage and bleed effects.
Will of the Forsaken. You are immune to charm,
fear, and sleep effects, and have advantage on all
mind-affecting spells of descriptors other than the
above.
Cannibalize You can consume the corpse of any
natural creature as part of spending a hit dice to
heal yourself. Eating a creature takes a minute,
and allows you to gain 50% increased benefit
from spending a hit dice. A natural creature may
be cannibalized once before their corpse
becomes unusable.
Forsaken Alchemy. You have proficiency with
the Alchemy skill. You can create alchemical
mixtures as if you had one level in any
spellcasting class you choose. If you later gain
levels in a spellcasting class, you may reference
said spellcasting spell list for alchemical recipes.
This level does not actually allow you to cast

Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write

Humans
“Go with honor, friend.”
Humans are among the youngest races on
Azeroth, but they make up for it by being the most
populous. With life spans generally shorter than
the other races, humans strive all the harder to
achieve great heights in empire building,
exploration and magical study. This aggressive
and inquisitive nature leads the human nations to
become active and influential in the world.
As a human, your people value virtue, honor and
courage, though like all races they also pursue
power and wealth. Humans have spent
generations battling dark forces and have lost
some of their greatest kingdoms to them. This
loss embitters humans, and they have a warlike
view of diplomacy — swing first, ask questions
later. Aided by belief in the Holy Light, humans
have fought the hardest and endured the most
during the wars against the Horde and the
Burning Legion. You may hail from the ruins of
once-glorious Lordaeron, the island-nation of Kul
Tiras, the mountains of Alterac, the highlands of
Version 2.4
Stromgarde, or the rebuilt capital of Stormwind,
amongst other nations.
Despite all their tragedies, humans remain hardy
and brave — thoroughly committed to building
strong societies, reinforcing their kingdoms and
reclaiming their nations. Years of war have
tempered human resolve, and they are more
hardened and determined than ever before.

Age. Humans reach adulthood at the age of 15.
and live up to be 80.
Affiliation. Humans tend toward no particular
alignment. The best and the worst are found
among them. Most are loyal to the Grand
Alliance, but there are pockets of independents,
horde-allied, or even those tied to the Burning
Legion or Scourge as demon-worshipping
Warlocks and Scourge-following Necromancers,
respectively.
Size. Humans vary widely in height and build,
from barely 5 feet to well over 6 feet tall.
Regardless of your position in that range, your
size is Medium.
Skillful. You gain proficiency with one skill or tool
of your choice.
Feat. You gain one feat of your choice.
Every Man for Himself. You have advantage on
any saving throw versus effects that hinder
movement or control over your body, mind, or
actions (such as charms, paralyzing effects,
slowing effects, and fear effects).
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write
Common and one extra language of your choice.
Humans typically learn the languages of other
peoples they deal with, including obscure
dialects. They are fond of sprinkling their speech
with words borrowed from other tongues: Orc
curses, Elvish musical expressions, Dwarvish
military phrases, and so on.

Orcs
“Lok’tar ogar!”

Tauren
“Walk with the earth mother.”
The plains of Kalimdor have long been a home to
these tremendous nomads. The tauren are a race
of shamans, hunters and warriors who long ago
developed a complex culture and system of living
without the aid of stonework, steel or conquest.
This is not to say that the tauren are a race of
pacifists, for when they are angered they are
capable of retaliating with swift and decisive
brutality.
As one of the Tauren peoples of Kalimdor, you
prefer to act instead of talk, and seem to be
brooding for most observers. Tauren rarely speak
unless there is a true reason to, preferring to act
instead of talk. However, once a tauren has
learned to interact with a companion, there seems
to be a more open and enthusiastic exchange of
words.
Tauren Traits
Ability Score Increase. Your Strength increases

Age. A Tauren typically claims adulthood around
the age of 50 and can live to be 150 years old.
Affiliation. Horde. When the tauren first

recognized the orcs as spiritual brethren. No
other race shared such a similar outlook on the
world, and the shamans of both races met
frequently to discuss the matters of the spirit
world. While the tauren see the orcs and trolls as
potential friends to welcome, they rarely trust the

Males average 7 1/2 feet tall and 400 pounds,

Tauren are mostly muscle, having incredibly
developed physiques and brawny frames most
suitable for combat. They are medium sized.
Speed. You have a base walking speed of 30
feet.
Gore. You can use an attack action to make a

attack that deals 1d8 piercing damage plus your

The DC is equal to your Warstomp DC.
Self-Mastery. You have proficiency in either
Spirit (Nature) or Spirit (Perception), and

Plainswalker. You have advantage when making
any check to recall a path you have traveled, or to

War Stomp. You can stomp the ground with your

Trolls
Several troll subspecies exist, and they are —
almost universally -- evil and depraved. Jungle
trolls are wild humanoids that live in Azeroth’s
wilderness, and Ice trolls are known as the
descendants of a vicious civilization that (to this
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
day) resists the Lich King’s dominion in
Northrend. During Thrall’s exodus from
Lordaeron, the Horde rescued the Darkspear tribe
of jungle trolls from the mysterious Sea Witch.
The Darkspear tribe owes Thrall and the orcs a
great debt, and allied themselves with the Horde
in gratitude. Their relationship with the noble orcs
and tauren has begun to change the Darkspear
trolls’ savage natures.
Jungle trolls are sly and cunning, and their society
is tribal and highly regimented. Males control
everything; females exist only to make more
trolls. Each tribe includes a chieftain, who is either
the most powerful warrior in the tribe or the most
accomplished witch doctor; the chieftain leads his
soldiers in raids against other creatures.
A tribe of trolls also includes one or more witch
doctors who assist the chieftain with advice and
spells. Trolls are adept hunters and daring
adversaries.
As a troll, you are viewed as vicious, brutal and
evil, and history lends credence to this reputation.
Waging constant wars against civilization and
attempt to reclaim past glories is a fervent call for
your people, who are seen (and are commonly
are) a lurking menace in any wilderness area and
willingly ally themselves with other dark powers to
achieve their goals.
Darkspear trolls of the Horde, however, deny this
legacy. The Horde has taught them camaraderie,
restraint and, to a lesser extent, kindness. Trolls
are famous for their ability to heal their wounds
rapidly.
Trollish Traits
Ability Score Increase. Your Agility score
increases by 1, and your Stamina increases by 1.
Age. Trolls reach adulthood at the age of 18, and
live up to be 80 years old.
Size. Trolls are larger and bulkier than humans,
and they average around 7 feet tall and 200
pounds, although their lanky build and slouched
pose undermines their height. Your size is
Medium.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Darkvision. You have superior vision in dark and
dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60
feet of you as if it were bright light, and in
darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Rapid Regeneration. Whenever you rest, you
gain double the hit point recovery benefit from
expending hit dice, and can regrow a lost limb
after a week of losing them, unless the limb was
lost through your own will or through magic.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write
Common and Zandali.

firearms (unless proficient otherwise).

Female Names. Moor, Mesk, Dan, Mel, Shi, Mith,

Family Names. Trolls usually employ titles rather
than family names, but commonly take their tribe
name as a family name.
Subrace. Ancient divides among the troll-folk
resulted in two main subraces: forest trolls, and
ice trolls. Choose one of these subraces. Jungle
trolls (such as the Revantusk tribe) are treated as
forest trolls.
Forest Troll (Darkspear)
“What’cha want me do?”
As a forest troll, you belong to the Darkspear tribe
or its associates.
Affiliation. Horde or Independent. Darkspear
jungle trolls are steadfastly loyal to the orcs.
Though they practice voodoo and many retain
their savage natures, Thrall lets them live in his
borders and generally do what they want. They
feel a great debt to the orcs, and their time
fighting alongside the tauren has made them
friends of these creatures as well. They are
suspicious of the Forsaken, but so is everyone
else.
The Darkspear tribe doesn’t really hate the
Alliance races, but their loyalty to the Horde and
their bloodthirstiness make the Alliance a great
target.

Berserking. You can rage as a level 1 barbarian.
If you gain levels in Barbarian, you increase the

as if you had one level in any spellcasting class
you choose. If you later gain levels in a
spellcasting class, you may reference said
spellcasting spell list for alchemical recipes. This
level does not actually allow you to cast spells,
only to know them enough to create alchemical
mixtures of such spells. Alternatively, you may
gain proficiency with Intimidation and Stealth.
Ice Troll (Drakkari)
“You got it...heh heh eh…”
As an ice troll, you belong to the tribes in
Northrend or high mountains in Azeroth,
commonly the Drakkari or Frostmane tribe,
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

respectively. Ice trolls average one foot higher
than other trolls.
Affiliation. Independent. Ice trolls are steadfastly
loyal to themselves above all others, and typically
show loyalty to their tribes and kings, although
they often also see the uses of allying with the
Horde (especially those who might share their
ancestral hate to the Alliance’s dwarves, elves,
and humans).
Ability Score Increase. Your Stamina score
increases by 1
Cold Resistance. You have resistance to Cold
damage. If you ever gain cold resistance later,
you gain immunity to cold instead.
Hostile Homeland. You treat arctic terrain as
favored terrain, as a 1st level Hunter. If you ever
become a hunter or gain a favored terrain, you
may choose another while retaining the benefits
of Hostile Homeland.
Worgen
“Get gabbing or get going.”
The worgen's first verified appearance in the
Eastern Kingdoms has been traced back to the
Third War, when the archmage Arugal utilized the
wolf-beasts as a weapon against the Scourge.
Arugal's weapons soon turned against him,
however, as the curse of the worgen rapidly
spread among the human population,
transforming ordinary men and women into
ravenous, feral creatures. Arugal adopted many
of the worgen as his own and retreated to the
former mansion of Baron Silverlaine, the estate
now known as Shadowfang Keep. The curse,
however, was not contained. It persisted in the
lands of Silverpine and extended even into the
walled nation of Gilneas, where the curse rapidly
reached pandemic levels.
The citizens of the human nation of Gilneas found
themselves trapped, with no hope of escape.
They retreated deeper within the isolated domain,
and there they survived, fearful of the savage
presence that lurked just outside the barricades.
Tensions among the displaced citizens escalated
over time, resulting in a civil war that now
threatens to destabilize the embattled nation even
more.
Records indicate that the worgen, a race of lupine
humanoids, existed for a time in Kalimdor. Other
evidence also suggested that the Worgen were
from a different world, that came through portals
by Archmage Arugal. More recent evidence
suggested that their true origin might have a
connection to the night elves and a secretive
druidic order from Kalimdor's distant past.
It were the night elves who (by happenstance)
created the curse in the first place. Obliged to
help their newfound allies, they re-introduced
them to the Alliance.
There are those among the Gilneans, however,
who cling to hope. Many believe that a cure for
the worgen curse may exist, although others have
nearly given up, fearful that if they should lose
hope, their humanity will be lost forever.
Worgen Traits
Ability Score Increase Your Agility score

Affiliation. Independent or Alliance. The Worgen
of Gilneas re-joined their brethren of the Alliance
once the Worgen Curse spread through their
people, but in most cases, Worgen prefer to cater
to their own hungers and ambitions.
Size. Worgens are about the same size as
humans when in humanoid and Worgen form.
Your size is Medium.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Darkvision. Your curse grants you the ability to
see in dark conditions. You can see in dim light
within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and
in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t
discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Worgen Curse. On your turn, you can shift to
your worgen form as a bonus action. Shifting lasts
until you end it on your turn as a bonus action.
While shifting, you gain temporary hit points equal
to your level + your Stamina bonus (minimum of
1). You also gain features described below. You
must finish a long rest before you can gain
temporary hit points again, though you can
transform whenever you wish.
Darkflight. Shifting Feature. While shifted, you
can use the Dash action as a bonus action.
Flayer. Shifting Feature. While shifted, you can
make a bite or claw attack as an action. This is a
melee weapon attack that uses Strength for its
attack roll and damage bonus and deals 1d6
piercing damage. If this attack hits a target that is
your size or smaller, the target is also grappled.
Viciousness. Shifting Feature. While shifted, you
can make an unarmed strike as a bonus action
with your claws.
Aberration. You have advantage to saves
against poison, and resistance against poison
and fel damage.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write
Common.
Worgen Names follow the same conventions as

 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Half-breed Races
The warcraft universe also has its share of mixed-origin characters(or half races). One of the more famous
examples are Garona Halforcen and the half elven Alodi, the first Guardian. Mixed races are treated as
both races with spells, magic effects, and mechanical purposes, but may be looked down upon by their
parent races.

Mixed Traits
Attributes. The creature chooses one of either parents' racial attributes.
Affiliation. The creature usually either falls to either parents' affiliation or is independent.
Size. The creature is the average in size of both parents (if they are not both Medium sized).
Speed. The creature moves at an average of both parents (if they are not both 30 ft.)
Racial traits. The creature chooses one of either parents' racial traits.
Racial penalties. The creature takes all racial penalties of both parents (if present, such as the blood
elves’ addiction).
Languages. The creature gains the languages of both parents.
Names. Follows the naming conventions of both parents or may be wholly original. Usually mixed creatures
are titled by their ancestry, such as 'Halforcen,' 'half elven', or even 'half human' depending on their actions
and history.

For example, Drann Halforcen, (orc father, draenei mother) can choose his father's (+2 to Str, +1 to Sta) or
his mother's (+2 to Str, +1 to Spi) racial attribute bonuses. The character may then make a decision on
which race is he closer biologically to (gaining Darkvision, Heroic Presence, Gift of the Naaru, Shadow
Resistance, and Gemcutting if his mother's side is dominant, or Darkvision, Menacing, Battle Rage,
Relentless Endurance, and Orcish Combat Training if his father's side is).
He would gain both Common, Orcish, and uncorrupted Eredun in either case.

Chapter 3: Classes and Specializations

Specializations in Warcraft act as sub-classes for most intents and purposes. Some subclasses are
racially-locked, and thus can only be entered by fulfilling a racial requirement.
Classes in Azeroth have different names (as noted in the introduction), and sometimes different abilities.
These are noted below.

Classes
Death Knight (DKN) (Path of Blood, Path of Frost, Path of Unholiness)

Druid (DRD) (Balance, Feral, Restoration)

Hunter (HTR) (Beast Master, Marksman, Survival)

Mage (MGE) (Arcane, Fire, Frost)

Monk (MNK) (Brewmaster, Mistweaver, Windwalker)

Paladin (PLD) (Oath of Holiness, Oath of Protection, Oath of Retribution)

Priest (PRS) (Death Priesthood, Discipline Priesthood, Holy Light Priesthood, Moon Priesthood, Shadow Priesthood)

Rogue (RGE) (Assassination, Combat, Subtlety)

Shaman (SHM) (Elemental, Enhancement, Restoration)

Tinker (TNK) (Bomber, Gunner, Gadgeteer)

Warlock (WKR) (Affliction, Demonology, Destruction)

Warrior (WAR) (Arms, Fury, Protection)

Special and Racial Specializations (Apothecary (Tinker), Demon Hunter (Rogue), Lightslayer (Rogue), Mountain King
(Warrior), Shadow Hunter (Hunter), Spell Breaker (Warrior))

Death Knight (DKN)

Death Knights were once virtuous defenders of Humanity and Truth. However, once the Paladin ranks were
disbanded by the failing Alliance, many of these holy warriors traveled to the quarantined lands to ease the
suffering of those left within the plague-ridden colonies. Though the Paladins were immune to disease of
any kind, they were persecuted by the general populace who believed that they had been infected by the
foul plague. A small band of Paladins, embittered by society's cruelty, traveled north to find the plague's
source. These renegade Paladins succumbed to bitter hatred over the course of their grueling quest.
When they finally reached Ner'zhul's icy fortress in Northrend they had become dark and brooding. The
Lich King offered them untold power in exchange for their services and loyalty. The weary, vengeful
warriors accepted his dark pact, and although they retained their humanity, their twisted souls were bound
to his evil will for all time. Bestowed with black, vampiric Runeblades and shadowy steeds, Death Knights
serve as the Scourge's mightiest generals.

CREATING A DEATH KNIGHT

Special: Any paladin may convert each level it has to a death knight by making a pledge to the Undead
Scourge (typically as consequence of soul-stealing or exposure to a runeblade). This typically corrupts
them, and makes returning to their previous class difficult if not impossible. Levels are exchanged on a 1:1
basis.
CLASS FEATURES Hit Points at Higher Levels 1d10 (or 6) + your
As a death knight, you have the following class Stamina modifier per death knight level after 1st
features.
HIT POINTS PROFICIENCIES
Hit Dice 1d10 per death knight level Armor All armor, shields

 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Skills Choose four from Athletics, Insight,
Intimidation, Medicine, Deception, and Religion.
QUICK BUILD
You can make a death knight quickly by following
these suggestions. First, Strength should be your
highest ability score, followed by Charisma.
Second, choose the noble or criminal
background.
EQUIPMENT
You start with the following equipment, in addition
to the equipment granted by your background:
● (a) a martial weapon and a shield or (b)
two martial weapons
● (a) five javelins or (b) any simple melee
weapon
● (a) a priest’s pack or (b) an explorer’s
pack
● Chain mail and an unholy symbol
Special: One (or both, if using two weapons to
fight) of your starting weapons is a runeblade, a
sword imbued with the power of the Lich King and
his blessing. Runeblades have three benefits:
1. They serve as spellbooks and store spells.
2. You gain advantage to saving throws
against any effect that controls your
character or alters their alignment against
the Lich King’s will.
3. The blade serves as an unholy symbol.
The power of the runeblade also grows with that
of the death knight, and the blade’s infusion
scales with your level (see the Infusion skill).

poison or disease. The target may still make a
saving throw against this disease as normal.
You can choose be a carrier to up to three
separate poisons or diseases on your person.
This feature has no effect on constructs.
Spellcasting
By 2nd level, you have learned to draw on divine
magic through meditation and prayer to cast
spells as a priest does. The death knight uses the
paladin’s spell list, but removes Holy Light, Seals,
Blessings, and other effects that heal the living
and similar effects (including revivify), and gains
the ability to cast Animate Dead, Death Coil,
Runes, as well as all spells that raise and control
the dead, as well as all spells that on the Death
Knight list.
Each death knight also adds Teleportation circle
to their list of spells, but may only teleport to
places with sigils made by other death knights
(typically bases of operations such as temples,
necropoli, etc.). This requires possessing your
Runeblade.
Conjuring and Binding
A death knight can conjure and bind (also known
as animate and enslave, respectively) undead
and fiends.
Preparing and Casting Spells
Each death knight level provides you with 0.5
caster levels in the death knight class. You follow
the normal
progression to unlock spell levels (see the table
under the Mana section).
You can change your list of prepared spells by
consulting your runeblade’s runes (treat as a
spellbook), which takes 1 minute per spell level to
alter the readied spell. Unlike arcane spellcasters,
you can choose any spell you prepared before in
your runeblade (treat as a spellbook), regardless
of whether you currently own it or not.
Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your
death knight spells, since their power derives
from the strength of
your convictions. You use your Charisma
whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting
ability. In addition, you
use your Charisma modifier when setting the
saving throw DC for a death knight spell you cast
and when making
an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Charisma modifier
Version 2.4
Spellbook – Runeblade
At 2nd level, your runeblade contains three 1st-
level death knight spells of your choice. When
you level up, you gain 2 additional death knight
spells of your choice. You may also acquire new
spells by research, tutelage, or from the
spellbooks and scrolls of spellcasters who have
spells you can cast.
Your runeblade is effectively your spellbook, and
you may add spells by scribing with runic inks.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use an unholy symbol (found in chapter
5) as a spellcasting focus for your death knight
spells, or you can treat your runeblade as your
focus.
Fighting Style
At 2nd level, you adopt a style of fighting as your
specialty. Choose one of the following options.
You can’t take a Fighting Style option more than
once, even if you later get to choose again.
Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1
bonus to AC.
Dueling
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one
hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus
to damage rolls
with that weapon.
Great Weapon Fighting
When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an
attack you make with a melee weapon that you
are wielding with
two hands, you can reroll the die and must use
the new roll. The weapon must have the two-
handed or versatile property for you to gain this
benefit.
Protection
When a creature you can see attacks a target
other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can
use your
reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack
roll. You must be wielding a shield.
Runic Strike
Starting at 2nd level, when you hit a creature with
a melee weapon attack, you can expend mana
equal to one death knight spell to deal fel damage
to the target, in addition to the weapon’s damage.
The extra damage is 2d8 for a 1st-level spell, plus
1d8 for each spell level higher than 1st, to a
maximum of 5d8. The damage increases by 1d8
if the target is an celestial or a paladin.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
If you have a rune active, you may also strike
without expending mana, and instead impose
judgment by releasing the rune, ending its effects
prematurely for an additional effect. Despite the
name, Runic Strike does not count as a Strike
effect, and does not require the expenditure of a
bonus action.
Aura
Starting at 3rd level, you may exert an aura you
can emit in a 15-foot radius sphere centered on
you as a bonus action. You may maintain
concentration with this effect for up to 1 hour.
Unlike most effects that require concentration,
you may also maintain concentration on spell at
the same time. You still suffer the chance to lose
the aura (DC 10 or half damage Stamina saving
throw). Once the aura ends, you cannot exert it
again until you rest (but you can exert other
auras).
All effects are treated as unholy and fel effects
that have no saving throw, but can be negated by
Protection From Evil and Good and suppressed
for 1 minute with dispel magic and similar
abjurations. If you are rendered unconscious, the
effect ends automatically. If an aura can be
resisted, it is a Spirit saving throw with a DC
equal to your spell DC.
Aura bonuses do not stack with other aura
bonuses. Creatures affected by auras
automatically sense where they are emanating
from.
Abandonment At level 3, you have the aura of
abandonment. All hostile creatures take extra
damage from Weapon attacks equal to your
proficiency bonus. This opposes Devotion Aura,
and both effects are negated.
Necrotic At level 6, you have the aura of necrosis.
All hostile creatures that are reduced to 0 hit
points restore 1d4 hit points to you and a number
of allies equal to your proficiency bonus. You do
not heal if the character is stabilized. This
opposes Retribution Aura, and both effects are
negated.
Unholy At level 10, you have the aura of the
unholy. All allied creatures within range gain +10
foot movement increase on their speed, and
regenerate one hit point per proficiency bonus
every hour. This does not stack with other
regenerative abilities such as restoring hit dice
from resting, and has no effect on constructs.
This opposes Crusader aura, and both effects are
suppressed.
Version 2.4
Distraction At level 14, you have the aura of
distraction. All hostile creatures suffer
disadvantage on Stamina saving throws to
maintain their concentration on spells. Once per
proficiency bonus, you may use your reaction to
force a hostile creature to treat its spellcasting as
distracted (requiring them to pass a concentration
check or lose the spell). This opposes
Concentration aura, and both effects are
suppressed.
Vulnerability At level 18, you have the aura of
vulnerability. All hostile creatures are lightly
vulnerable against one energy type (choose once
emitting the aura between acid, cold, electricity,
or fire). Affected creatures take bonus damage
equal to double your proficiency bonus (cannot
exceed double the original damage). This can be
resisted to negate the effect once per round. This
opposes Resistance Aura, and both effects are
suppressed.
Unholy Path
When you reach 3rd level, you walk a path that
defines you as a death knight forever. Up to this
time you have been in a preparatory stage,
committed to the path but not yet sworn to it. Now
you choose the Path of Blood for vengeance,
Path of Frost for cool disregard for life, or Path of
the Unholy to defy the heavens, all detailed at the
end of the class description.
Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and
again at 7th, 15th, and 20th level. Those features
include path spells and the Channel Divinity
feature.
Path Spells
Each path has a list of associated spells. You
gain access to these spells at the levels specified
in the path description. Once you gain access to a
path spell, you always have it prepared. Path
spells don’t count against the number of spells
you can prepare each day.
If you gain a path spell that doesn’t appear on the
death knight spell list, the spell is nonetheless a
death knight spell for you.
Channel Divinity
Your path allows you to channel divine energy to
fuel magical effects. Each Channel Divinity option
provided by your path explains how to use it.
When you use your Channel Divinity, you choose
which option to use. You must then finish a short
or long rest to use your Channel Divinity again.
Some Channel Divinity effects require saving
throws. When you use such an effect from this
class, the DC equals your death knight spell save
DC.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

By default, you may always Turn Good, and gain

an additional choice from your Path.
Turn Good
As an action, you present your unholy symbol and
speak a prayer censuring humanoids, celestials,
and beasts, using your Channel Divinity. Each
humanoid, celestial or beast that can see or hear
you within 30 feet of you must make a Spirit
saving throw.
If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for
1 minute or until it takes damage. A turned
creature must spend its turns trying to move as
far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly
move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t
take reactions. For its action, it can use only the
Dash action or try to escape from an effect that
prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to
move, the creature can use the Dodge action.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase
two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal,
you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using
this feature.
Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice,
instead of once, whenever you take the Attack
action on your turn.
Cursed Carrier
Starting at 6th level, you can carry diseases in
your body, and spread them by touch (if contact),
scratch (if injury), breath (if inhaled), or spit (if
ingested). You can carry up to three diseases of
your choice with this ability, above the normal
three added by Corrupting Touch.
Improved Runic Strike
By 11th level, you are so suffused with the might
of the Lich King that all your melee weapon
strikes carry his unholy power with them.
Whenever you hit a creature with a melee
weapon, the creature takes an extra 1d8 fel
damage. If you also use your Runic Strike with an
attack, you add this damage to the extra damage
of your Runic Strike.
Dispelling Touch
Beginning at 14th level, you can use your action
to end one spell on yourself or on one willing
creature that you touch. You can use this feature
a number of times equal to your Charisma
modifier (a minimum of once). You regain
expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Aura Improvement
Beginning on 18th level, you have advantage to
concentrate on auras, and the range increases to
30 feet.

Unholy Path
Unholy paths act as Paladins’ Sacred Oaths, and each death knight must choose one Unholy Path starting
at 3rd level.

Path of Blood
A path of blood death knights are a dark guardians who manipulate and corrupt life energy to sustain
themselves in the face of the enemy’s onslaught.
Death Knight Level Spell
3rd Bane, False Life
5th Darkness, Ray of Enfeeblement
9th Animate Dead III, Carrion Swarm
13th Blight, Confusion
17th Contagion, Insect Plague

Channel Divinity.
Blood Ward. You can use your Channel Divinity to protect yourself from the effects of good magic. As a
reaction, you can grant yourself and everyone within range of any active aura Advantage on saving throws
versus any magical effect that you wish to ward for 1 minute (choose one magic school).

Blood Strike [Strike]. Beginning when you choose this archetype at 3rd level, whenever you hit a living
creature with a melee weapon attack, you may use a bonus action to spend one of your hit dice to regain
health. You can benefit from this feature only once per round.

Blood Tap. Starting at 7th level, you may expend a hit dice to restore mana equal to 2 per hit dice
expended as a bonus action. This may be used so long as you have unused hit dice.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Bloodforge. Starting at 15th level, whenever you slay a creature with your Death Pact spell, you may opt
to regain hit dice equal to the creature’s CR instead of healing yourself. Death Pact is always prepared for
you.

Life Stealer. Starting at 20th level, whenever you are dropped to 0 hit points, you may use your Death
Pact spell on any dying creature as well as undead and fiends. You may also instead tear the life from
living targets within 30 ft., stealing a number of hit points equal to ¼ their current hit points, and restoring
your hit points by the same amount.
The target may resist with an opposed Stamina saving throw. This may be used once per Charisma
modifier (minimum 1) before requiring a rest.

Path of Frost
A frost path death knight is a harbinger of doom, channeling runic power and delivering vicious weapon
strikes.
Death Knight Level Spell
3rd Bane, False Life
5th Darkness, Ray of Enfeeblement
9th Animate Dead III, Blizzard
13th Blight, Confusion
17th Cone of Cold (Howling Blast), Insect Plague

Channel Divinity.
Freeze. You can use your Channel Divinity to cause enemies within a 20 foot radius to be wracked with
unbearable pain as you freeze their blood. The targets must succeed a Charisma save or suffer
Disadvantage to all attack rolls and skill checks, and move at half movement while in the affected area.
This lasts for a number of rounds equal to your Death Knight level.

Frost Presence. Starting when you gain this archetype at 3rd level, you may reduce the speed of any
target you harm with a cold spell by half. You also gain resistance to cold damage.

Might of the Wastes [Strike]. Starting at 7th level, your frost-sharpened blade deals a critical hit on a roll
of 19 or 20. You also deal an additional 1d4 points of cold damage whenever you strike an enemy with this.
For the purposes of the Frost Presence ability, this also slows the enemy.

Frozen Soul. Starting at 15th level, you gain a free use of Unholy Strike whenever you reduce a creature to
0 hit points from a cold spell. A creature defeated this way turns into an ice statue. You may deal half of
your Unholy Strike damage in Cold damage.

Pillar of Frost. Starting at 20th level, you can cause ice to hang heavy on your body. This increases your
strength score by 4 to a max of 24 and your Stamina by 2 to a max of 22 due to the weight of the ice.

Path of Unholiness
An unholy path death knight is a horseman of death, leading undead troops to battle, fueled with hatred of
the living.
Death Knight Level Spell
3rd Bane, False Life
5th Darkness, Ray of Enfeeblement
9th Animate Dead, Bestow Curse
13th Blight, Confusion
17th Contagion, Insect Plague

Channel Divinity.
Bolster Undead. You can use your Channel Divinity to guard undead against being turned, as well as
empowering them. All and any undead under your command within 30 ft. of you may add your Proficiency
bonus to attack rolls, skill checks, damage rolls, and saving throws for one minute, and may ignore one
Turn Undead attempt. You cannot benefit from the numeric bonus, but can ignore one Turn Undead
attempt on use. This bonus remains for one hour.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Undead Companion. Starting when you gain this
archetype at 3rd level, you may raise an undead
ghoul to accompany you on your adventures.
Choose an undead (preferably a ghoul) that is no
larger than Medium and that has a challenge
rating of 1/4 or lower (appendix D presents
statistics for the zombie or skeleton as examples).
Add your proficiency bonus to the undead’s AC,
attack rolls, and damage rolls, as well as to any
saving throws and skills it is proficient in. Its hit
point maximum equals its normal maximum or
four times your death knight level, whichever is
higher. Your undead companion improves in CR
the higher your level becomes, for a CR
parameter of 1 CR per every 4 levels of death
knight (improving to 1 CR at level 4, 2 CR at level
8, 3 at level 12, 4 CR at level 16, and 5 at level
20). When reaching 8th level, you can choose a
Large creature.
The undead obeys your commands as best as it
can. It takes its turn on your initiative, though it
doesn’t take an action unless you command it to.
On your turn, you can verbally command the
undead where to move (no action required by
you). You can use your action to verbally
command it to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage,
Dodge, or Help action. Once you have the Extra
Attack feature, you can make one weapon attack
yourself when you command the beast to take the
Attack action. You may split the allotted CR
between several undead.
Bonding with an undead requires spending one
hour animating it, and the next hour drawing from
any superficial memories before its death. You
may raise your enemies to serve as undead
companions, so long as their CR are within the
above guidelines. Most death knights take low-
level ghouls, before being able to bond with
greater targets.
Grave March. Beginning at 7th level, your Unholy
Aura can be used in conjunction with any other
aura. Targets that benefit from your Unholy Aura
also have advantage to all saves that hinder or
arrest movement, or effects that hinder or remove
control over their actions.
Army of the Dead. Starting at 15th level, your
Animate Undead (Conjure Dead) spell is
inherently stronger than others. When you start
casting Animate Undead and choose the undead
creature you want to conjure, temporary undead
(choose up to 10 undead creatures to spawn
during your spellcasting time, with a collective CR
equal to three times the Animate Undead spell
level) begin spawning on the first round after you
start casting and begin acting so long as you
continue to cast the Animate Undead spell. These
temporary undead followers are friendly to you
and your allies, and are controlled as normal
summons (but do not count against your limit of
summoned undead). They remain for 10 minutes
before falling inactive. This does not require
corpses to be present--undead sprout from the
very ground. However, this cannot be used on
hallowed ground, and the undead must be able to
dig out of the earth.
Unholy Champion. Starting at 20th level, the
Lich King has blessed you with fel zeal, allowing
you to become surrounded with dark energies. As
an action, you can be surrounded by a thick
miasma that spreads out for 30 feet, and gain the
following benefits for 1 minute:
● At the beginning of your transformation
you are instantly healed for 3d8+10 HP.
● Become resistant to damage from good
aligned targets (or magical weapons).
● Any undead in the miasma regains 2d6 hit
points every round. This cannot exceed
half total hit points.

Druid (DRD)
Druids harness the vast powers of nature to preserve balance and protect life. With experience, druids can
unleash nature’s raw energy against their enemies, raining celestial fury on them from a great distance,
binding them with enchanted vines, or ensnaring them in unrelenting cyclones.
The druids of Azeroth nearly all belong to the circle of Cenarius. Druids otherwise corrupted still belong to
the same circle. Azerothian druids are more limited in the shapes they may choose when transforming, but
they gain an additional ability to empower said form.

At 1st level, your idol contains six 1st-level druid
spells of your choice. When you level up, you
gain 2 additional druid spells of your choice. You
may also acquire new spells by research,
tutelage, or from the spellbooks and scrolls of
spellcasters who have spells you can cast.
Your idol is effectively your spellbook, and you
may add spells by meditating with it and inhaling
herbal vapors.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use a druidic idol as a spellcasting focus
for your druid spells.
Druid Circle
At 2nd level, you choose to identify with a circle of
druids: the Circle of the Balance to preserve the
order of nature, the Circle of the Feral Beast to
act within nature’s order, or the Circle of
Restoration to keep and preserve living things, all
detailed at the end of the class description. Your
choice grants you features at 2nd level and again
at 6th, 10th, and 14th level.
Wild Shape
Starting at 2nd level, you may choose a land-
bound beast to morph into as a bonus action. You
can use this ability a number of times equal to
your proficiency bonus before requiring a long
rest. The creature selected can be any beast that
cannot fly or swim naturally, such as a wolf, lion,
bear, tiger, etc. You remain in this form a number
of hours equal to half your druid level (round
down).
You then revert to your normal form unless you
expend another use of this feature. You can
revert to your normal form earlier by using a
bonus action on your turn. You automatically
revert if you fall unconscious, drop to 0 hit points,
or die.
While you are transformed, the following rules
apply:
● Your game statistics are replaced by the
statistics of the beast, but you retain your
alignment, personality, and Intelligence,
Spirit, and Charisma scores. You also
Version 2.4
retain all of your skill and saving throw
proficiencies, in addition to gaining those
of the creature.
● If the creature has the same proficiency as
you and the bonus in its stat block is
higher than yours, use the creature’s
bonus instead of yours. If the creature has
any legendary or lair actions, you can't
use them.
● When you transform, you assume the
beast’s hit points and Hit Dice. When you
revert to your normal form, you return to
the number of hit points you had before
you transformed. However, if you revert as
a result of your polymorphed form
dropping to 0 hit points, any excess
damage carries over to your normal form.
For example, if you take 10 damage in
animal form and have only 1 hit point left,
you revert and take 9 damage. As long as
the excess damage doesn’t reduce your
normal form to 0 hit points, you aren’t
knocked unconscious.
● You can’t cast spells unless those noted
by other abilities, and your ability to speak
or take any action that requires hands is
limited to the capabilities of your beast
form. Transforming doesn’t break your
concentration on a spell you’ve already
cast, however, or prevent you from taking
actions that are part of a spell, such as
call lightning, that you’ve already cast.
● You retain the benefit of any features from
your class, race, or other source and can
use them if the new form is physically
capable of doing so. However, you can’t
use any of your special senses, such as
darkvision, unless your new form also has
that sense.
●
You choose whether your equipment falls
to the ground in your space, merges into
your new form, or is worn by it. Worn
equipment functions as normal, but the
DM decides whether it is practical for the
new form to wear a piece of equipment,
based on the creature’s shape and size.
Your equipment doesn’t change size or
shape to match the new form, and any
equipment that the new form can’t wear
must either fall to the ground or merge
with it. Equipment that merges with the
form has no effect until you leave the
form.
Starting at 4th level, you may choose a creature
with natural swimming capabilities and
underwater breathing, such as a sea lion, a seal,
a fish, a shark, etc.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
At 8th level, you may choose a creature with
natural flying capabilities (such as giant eagles,
dragonhawks, storm-crows, or vultures) to the list
of creatures you can transform to.
At 12th level, you may take the form of a tree or
plant, and add Minor Ancients to the list of
creatures you can transform to.
The four chosen creature forms (one from each
category) cannot be changed later. Creatures you
may transform to have a maximum CR of your hit
dice divided by 8 (¼ at level 2, ½ at level 4, 1 at
level 8, and 2 at level 16).
Ancient Power
Starting at 3rd level, you have learned to regain
some of your mana by invoking ancient powers.
With a 3-turn action, you can regain mana equal
to 4 + your Druid level. When used, you do not
regenerate mana by rest or time for the next four
hours. This ability can be used after restoring
mana from a different source.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase
two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal,
Druid Circles
Druids may choose from one of the below three circles.
Each druid also adds Teleportation circle to their list of spells, but may only teleport to their counterpart in
the emerald dream.
Balance
The Balance archetype improves your command of solar and lunar energies.
Druid Level Circle Spells
3rd barkskin, entangling roots
5th call lightning, plant growth
7th divination, freedom of movement
9th commune with nature, tree stride
Eclipse Pool. Starting at 2nd level, whenever you
successfully deal Arcane or Holy damage to an
enemy through a Druidic spell or ability, you gain
one Eclipse point. You cannot gain more than one
per round. Eclipse points may be used to
empower your abilities. For every Eclipse point
you have, you may deal an additional 1 point of
Arcane or Holy damage with spells and abilities
that deal direct Arcane or Holy damage. You may
have a maximum number of points equal to 2 plus
your Proficiency bonus, and they remain for one
hour after being acquired.
Balance of Sun and Moon. Also starting at 2nd
level, you may expend one Eclipse point when
casting a spell that deals Arcane or Holy damage,
and deal 1d4 points of damage of that type.
Version 2.4
you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using
this feature.
Timeless
Starting at 18th level, the primal magic that you
wield causes you to age more slowly. For every
10 actual years you live, your body ages one year
only.
Beast Spells
Beginning at 18th level, you can cast many of
your druid spells in any shape you assume using
Wild Shape. You can perform the somatic and
verbal components of a druid spell while in a
beast shape, but you aren’t able to provide
material components.
Archdruid
At 20th level, you can use your Wild Shape an
unlimited number of times.
Additionally, you can ignore the verbal and
somatic components of your druid spells, as well
as any material components that lack a cost and
aren’t consumed by a spell. You gain this benefit
in both your normal shape and your beast shape
from Wild Shape.
Moon-Kin. Starting at 6th level, you may
transform into a wildkin. When transformed,
however, you may still cast druidic spells of the
Transmutation and Evocation schools. When in
this form, such spells cost 1 mana less than
normal. You lose the ability to rage as a wildkin,
however.
Shooting Star. Starting at 10th level, you may
reroll the damage roll for any spell you cast by
expending an Eclipse Point.
World in Balance. Starting at 14th level, you can
command the world to hear your call, and call a
solar or lunar eclipse (depending on the time).
Solar Eclipse (Day only). The sun’s light is
covered by a shadow which blankets the earth in
a 5-mile radius centered on the druid for one
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
hour. The area becomes dim light or normal light
(your choice), and creatures sensitive to sunlight
do not take penalties from sunlight. All your spells
that deal Arcane damage do so as if your Eclipse
pool was full. You also gain one Eclipse Point per
minute.
Lunar Eclipse (Night only). The moon’s light is
bright and cloaked in the shadow which blankets
Feral
The Feral archetype improves your wildform choices, and augments your strength in each of them by
choosing an animal focus.
Fortitude of the Wilds. When you choose this
archetype at 2nd level, you gain the ability to use
Wild Shape on your turn as a bonus action or a
reaction, rather than as an action.
Additionally, while you are transformed by Wild
Shape, you can use a bonus action to expend
one spell to regain 1d8 hit points per level of the
spell expended.
Fury of the Wilds. Also when gaining this
archetype, when determining your maximum
allowable CR to transform to, you divide your
level by four, and not eight, therefore (½ at level
2, 1 at level 4, 2 at level 8, and 3 at level 12, 4 at
level 16, and 5 at level 20).
Primal Strike. Starting at 6th level, your attacks
in beast form count as magical for the purpose of
overcoming resistance and immunity to non-
magical attacks and damage.
Blessed Beast. Starting at 10th level, you may
gain a special ability depending on your favored
form of a wild shape. Choose any of your forms,
and you may assign one of the following abilities
to it, but only when in that form. Upon reaching
15th level, you may choose another option for
each form.
● Raking beast: You gain the rogue’s Sneak
Attack ability as a 1st level rogue. This
can be taken again to improve the level up
to half your druid level.
Restoration
The Restoration archetype improves on your ability to heal the wilderness and its many creatures.
Druid Level Circle Spells
3rd rejuvenation, pass without trace
5th daylight, swiftmend
7th divination, freedom of movement
9th dream, tranquility
Healing Lore. When you choose this archetype
at 2nd level, you may alter the target of an
invigorate spell effect as a bonus action, targeting
Version 2.4
the earth in a 5-mile radius centered on the druid
for one hour. The area becomes either dim or
normal light (your choice), and creatures sensitive
to moonlight or sunlight take penalties (depending
on your wish) when in the area. All your spells
that deal Holy damage do so as if your Eclipse
pool is full. You also gain one Eclipse Point per
minute.
● Roaring beast: You can empower your
allies with a primal roar. This acts exactly
as the Death Knight’s Abandonment Aura.
● Defending beast: You can gain resistance
to all nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing,
and slashing damage by expending a
reaction. This remains for one minute, and
may be used once before a short rest.
● Magical beast: You may choose any two
spells from your druid spell list and cast
them in this form. This does not require
somatic or verbal components.
● Inspiring beast: You gain the bard’s
Inspiration ability as a 1st level bard. This
can be taken again to improve the level up
to half your druid level.
● Prowling beast: Whenever you and an ally
both threaten a creature, your ally gains
advantage to attack rolls against it.
● Holy beast: You gain the priest’s Turn
Undead ability as a 1st level priest. This
can be taken again to improve the level up
to half your druid level. This can also act
against fiends as if they were undead.
● Furious beast: You gain the barbarian’s
Rage ability as a 1st level barbarian. This
can be taken again to improve the level up
to half your druid level.
Grand Beast. Starting at 14th level, your weapon
attacks while in wild shape deal an additional die
of damage. Also, while under a wild shape, you
gain 5 temporary hit points at the beginning of
each round when in a wild shape. These
temporary hit points do not carry over to your
round.
any eligible target within a range equal to the
spell’s original range. The spell’s effects take
place at the new target’s turn as usual.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

have more than one seed active at any given

Extended Growth. Also starting at 2nd level, the
maximum duration of invigorate spells for you is
10 minutes, not 1 minute, and you gain 50% more
uses from any invigorate spell effect.
Seed of Life. Starting at 6th level, you may touch
any creature as an action, and cast any druidic
spell, which remains latent until you discharge it
with a mental command. Until the spell is
discharged, you can sense the well-being of the
creature and their relative health, but cannot
perceive through their senses or realize what they
are facing.
When they are hit, you receive a mental jolt that
notifies you of their peril, and you may discharge
the spell you cast. A creature cannot benefit from
this more than once every 24 hours, and cannot
time. This spell is considered active, and can be
dispelled if targeted.
Ironbark. Starting at 10th level, whenever you
heal a creature, you may choose to imbue their
skin to be imbued with the strength of nature. if
you do, they gain resistance to all non-magical
weapon damage for 1 minute. This can be used
multiple times, though a given creature can
benefit only once every 24 hours.
Improved Seed of Life. Starting at 14th level,
you may imbue up to five seeds of life at once,
and you can use an action see through the
location in which you touched your ally. You may
not communicate with them, however.

Hunter (HTR)
From an early age the call of the wild draws some adventurers from the comfort of their homes into the
unforgiving primal world outside. Those who endure become hunters. Masters of their environment, they
are able to slip like ghosts through the trees and lay traps in the paths of their enemies.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
you can cast spells to shape that essence to your
will. You cast Hunter spells and add Shot spells to
your spell list.
Conjuring and Binding
A hunter can conjure animals, elementals, fey,
and plants, and may bind elementals and plants.
Beast master hunters often take bound animals
as their animal companions to honor them.
Preparing and Casting Spells
Each hunter level provides you with 0.5 levels in
the hunter class. You follow the normal
progression to unlock spell levels (see the table
under the Mana section).
You prepare the list of hunter spells that are
available for you to cast, choosing from the hunter
spell list.
When you do so, you may ready a number of
hunter spells equal to half the number you can
prepare normally for your Spirit modifier (or 1 +
spirit modifier), and you do not need to reduce the
number of spells prepared for the highest and
second-highest levels as other casters.
When you level up, you can exchange the spells
known with others you qualify for. You cannot
otherwise change your spells other than by
leveling up and exchanging them, or by training
under another ranger, druid, or fey creature (see
tutilage under magic).
Spellcasting Ability
Spirit is your spellcasting ability for your hunter
spells, since your magic draws upon your
attunement to nature. You use your Spirit
whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting
ability. In addition, you use your Spirit modifier
when setting the saving throw DC for a druid spell
you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Spirit modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Spirit modifier
Spellbook – Idol
At 2nd level, your idol contains three 1st-level
hunter spells of your choice. When you level up,
you gain 2 additional hunter spells of your choice.
You may also acquire new spells by research,
tutelage, or from the spellbooks and scrolls of
spellcasters who have spells you can cast.
Your idol is effectively your spellbook, and you
may add spells by meditating with it and inhaling
herbal vapors.
Shot Spells
Shot spells may be cast as a bonus action when
attacking with a ranged weapon, and counts as a
Version 2.4
strike feat for most purposes except where
otherwise noted.
Some hunters eschew the arts of nature magic,
and instead focus entirely on technology.
They can lose access to all spells other than Shot
spells, and instead gain the Sharpshooter feature
instead of the Spellcasting Feature.
Note. Sharpshooter. At level 2, you may remove
all non-shot spells from your spell list, and instead
gain proficiency in the Engineering skill and
engineering weapons (such as firearms and
explosives). In effect, you can still cast hunter
spells, but only those that are [shot] and [strike]
spells.
If you already have proficiency in Engineering,
you instead gain expertise to all Engineering-
related checks (although this does not improve
the strength of technologically-crafted items).
Hunter Archetype
At 3rd level, you choose an archetype that you
strive to emulate: the Beast Master who bonds
with an animal, a Marksman who always finds
their target and excels in bringing them down, and
a Survivalist, who has several terrain-based
abilities and is an expert ambusher, all of which
are detailed at the end of the class description.
Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and
again at 7th, 11th, and 15th level.
Primeval Awareness
Beginning at 3rd level, you can use your action
and expend mana equal a spell to focus your
awareness on the region around you. For 1
minute per level of the spell you expended, you
can sense whether the following types of
creatures are present within 1 mile of you (or
within up to 6 miles if you are in your favored
terrain): aberrations, celestials, dragons,
elementals, fey, fiends, and undead. This feature
doesn’t reveal the creatures’ location or number.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase
two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal,
you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using
this feature.
Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice,
instead of once, whenever you take the Attack
action on your turn.
Land’s Stride
Starting at 8th level, moving through nonmagical
difficult terrain costs you no extra movement. You
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
can also pass through nonmagical plants without
being slowed by them and without taking damage
from them if they have thorns, spines, or a similar
hazard. In addition, you have advantage on
saving throws against plants that are magically
created or manipulated to impede movement,
such those created by the entangling roots spell.
Hide in Plain Sight
Starting at 10th level, you can spend 1 minute
creating camouflage for yourself. You must have
access to fresh mud, dirt, plants, soot, and other
naturally occurring materials with which to create
your camouflage. Once you are camouflaged in
this way, you can try to hide by pressing yourself
up against a solid surface, such as a tree or wall,
that is at least as tall and wide as you are. You
gain a +10 bonus to Agility (Stealth) checks as
long as you remain there without moving or taking
actions. Once you move or take an action or a
reaction, you must camouflage yourself again to
gain this benefit.
Vanish
Starting at 14th level, you can use the Hide action
as a bonus action on your turn. Also, you can’t be
tracked by nonmagical means, unless you choose
Hunter Archetypes
An Azerothian hunter may choose one of the three below archetypes.
Beast Master
The beastmaster archetype improves your bond with the land by granting you a natural beast appropriate
to your terrain to fight alongside you.
Hunter’s Companion. At 3rd level, you gain a
beast companion that accompanies you on your
adventures and is trained to fight alongside you.
Choose a beast that is no larger than Medium
and that has a challenge rating of 1/4 or lower
(appendix D presents statistics for the hawk,
mastiff, and panther as examples). Add your
proficiency bonus to the beast’s AC, attack rolls,
and damage rolls, as well as to any saving throws
and skills it is proficient in. Its hit point maximum hours in bonding activities (hunting, etc.).
equals its normal maximum or four times your
ranger level, whichever is higher.
Your beast companion improves in CR the higher
your level becomes, for a CR parameter of 1 CR
per every 8 levels of Hunter (improving to ½ CR
at level 4, 1 CR at level 8, and 2 CR at level 16).
When reaching 8th level, you can choose a Large
creature.
The beast obeys your commands as best as it
can. It takes its turn on your initiative, though it
doesn’t take an action unless you command it to.
On your turn, you can verbally command the
beast where to move (no action required by you).
You can use your action to verbally command it to
Version 2.4
to leave a trail. When you are subjected to an
effect that attempts to detect or identify you (such
as a Scry spell), you gain advantage to all saves
versus such effects. If you succeed on an
opposed Spirit check, you can also reverse the
spell (if possible, gaining a momentary glimpse of
who is attempting to scry on you).
Feral Senses
At 18th level, you gain preternatural senses that
help you fight creatures you can’t see. When you
attack a creature you can’t see, your inability to
see it doesn’t impose disadvantage on your
attack rolls against it. You are also aware of the
location of any invisible creature within 30 feet of
you, provided that the creature isn’t hidden from
you and you aren’t blinded or deafened.
Foe Slayer
At 20th level, you become an unparalleled hunter
of your enemies. Once on each of your turns, you
can add your Spirit modifier to the attack roll or
the damage roll
You can choose to use this feature before or after
the roll, but before any effects of the roll are
applied.
take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Dodge, or Help
action. Once you have the Extra Attack feature,
you can make one weapon attack yourself when
you command the beast to take the Attack action.
While traveling through your favored terrain with
your beast, you can move stealthily at a normal
pace. Bonding with a beast requires spending
one hour communicating with the creature by
nonverbal cues, and spending the next seven
Spirit Bond. Beginning at 7th level, on any of
your turns when your beast companion doesn’t
attack, you can use a bonus action to command
the beast to take the Dash, Disengage, Dodge, or
Help action on its turn. The beast also has
advantage with any saving throw to resist spells
that control it (such as charm spells) or those that
make it abandon you (such as fear spells).
Frenzy. Starting at 11th level, your beast
companion can make two attacks when you
command it to use the Attack action. Its weapon
attacks score a critical hit on a roll of 19 and 20. If
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

it normally performs more attacks, it may perform
one additional attack.
Empowered Bond. Beginning at 15th level, you
and your animal companion may share the
damage both of you take by dividing it by two so
long as you are within 30 feet of one another. If
under the effects of Spirit Link, you count as two
separate creatures. As long as you and your
animal companion are within one mile or less of
one another, you may also see through your
companion’s eyes and give commands through it,
though you are blind to your own surroundings if
you do so.

Marksman
A marksman is a master archer or sharpshooter who excels in bringing down enemies from afar.

Careful Aim. Once you gain this archetype at 3rd level, you may use a bonus action as part of shooting to
grant yourself advantage your ranged weapon attack. You cannot use this if you already moved in the
previous round.

Hawk Eye. Starting at 7th level, you double your range with all ranged weapon attacks. Also, any ranged
attack you score on a creature that is surprised is a critical hit. The automatic critical hit can be triggered
once per round.

Multi-Shot Strike. Starting at 11th level, whenever you successfully strike an enemy with a ranged attack,
you may use a bonus action to attack any other target within 5 feet of the original target. You may also
instead designate five-foot-square within the range of your ranged weapon, and bombard any number of
enemies within 10 feet of said point, one attack each.

Chimera Shot [Shot]. Beginning at 15th level, you gain the ability to use Chimera Shot once per Spirit
modifier, regained at the end of a long rest. You may declare the use of Chimera Shot, which allows you to
combine the effects of up to three different shot spells, with the mana cost of only the highest-level shot.

Survival
A survival hunter is a rugged tracker who uses animal venom, explosives, and traps as deadly weapons,
and gains a variety of different survival abilities.

Survival Knowledge. Starting at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in Engineering and Alchemy (spell list is
the full Hunter’s spell list). If you already have proficiency in Engineering, you gain expertise in checks with
it. You also gain +10 feet to your speed when wearing medium armor or less, and when not using a shield.

Trap Expert. Starting at 7th level, any creature subjected to traps set by you have disadvantage to their
saves, or the trap has advantage to any attack against them, and you may add your Proficiency bonus to all
saving throw DCs or attack rolls made by traps you set.
The trap needs only to be set by you, and not necessarily built by you. This disadvantage applies to any
poisons you apply on the trap (treat as if poisoning own weapon).

Poison Science. Starting at 11th level, you can harvest natural poisons from dead creatures, with a
quantity enough for one poison use per hit die of the dead creature. You may also acquire immunity to
poisons by subjecting yourself to them in small increments. It takes one week of subjecting yourself to a
poison to become immune to it, assuming you may survive until the end. You also gain resistance to poison
damage.

Mettle. Starting at 17th level, you automatically succeed against all death saving throws after a minute of
being reduced to 0 hit points, and only suffer a loss when attacked while dying. You may also apply poisons
on your weapon as a bonus action.
You always count yourself as within your favored terrain for the purposes of travel, and whenever one of
your traps harm a creature, you always treat it as if it is surprised against you, unless combat hasn’t already
started.

Mage (MGE)
Students gifted with a keen intellect and unwavering discipline may walk the path of the Mage. The arcane
magic available to magi is both great and dangerous, and thus is revealed only to the most devoted
practitioners. To avoid interference with their spellcasting, magi wear only cloth armor, but arcane shields
and enchantments give them additional protection. To keep enemies at bay, magi can summon bursts of
fire, waves of frost, or blasts of arcane magic to incinerate, freeze, and destroy distant targets and cause
entire areas to erupt with their magic, setting groups of foes to waste.
The wizards of Azeroth are commonly known as mages, or magi. The magi of Azeroth acknowledge the
corrupting influence of arcane magic, and unlike Warlocks, they temper their advancement with cool
intellect and precision.
Note that any mage may convert their every mage level to a Warlock level with a one-time quest, usually by
attuning themselves to the fel energies of the burning legion, killing a demon and siphoning its mana, or
being touched by a demonic entity or organization.

Invocation
You have learned to regain some of your mana by invoking mana. With a 3-turn action, you can regain
mana equal to 4 + your Mage level. When used, you do not regenerate mana by rest or time for the next
four hours. Unlike most mana-restoring abilities, you can use this after restoring mana from a different
source.

Spellcasting
As a student of arcane magic, you have a spellbook containing spells that show the first glimmerings of
your true power.

Cantrips
At 1st level, you know three cantrips of your choice from the mage spell list. You learn additional mage
cantrips of your choice at higher levels, equal to half your Mage level + 2 (maximum 6).

Conjuring and Binding

A mage can conjure and bind constructs, elementals, fiends, and undead.

Spellbook
At 1st level, you have a spellbook containing six 1st-level mage spells of your choice. When you level up,
you gain 2 additional mage spells of your choice. You may also acquire new spells by research, tutelage, or
from the spellbooks and scrolls of spellcasters who have spells you can cast.

Preparing and Casting Spells

Each mage level provides you with 1 caster level in the mage class. You follow the normal progression to
unlock spell levels (see the table under the Mana section).
You prepare the list of mage spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the mage spell list.
You can also change your list of prepared spells by consulting your spellbook. Preparing a new list of mage
spells requires time spent in study: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.

Spellcasting Ability
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your mage spells, since you learn your spells through dedicated
study and memorization.
You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a mage spell you cast and when making an
attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Ritual Casting
You can cast a mage spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell in your spellbook.
You don't need to have the spell prepared.

Spellcasting Focus
You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your mage spells.

Learning Spells of 1st Level and Higher

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

On your adventures, you might find other spells that you can add to your spellbook. You do not gain spells
by default, and typically scribe spells from scrolls into your own spellbook, or purchase (or steal) the
spellbooks of others, or research them yourself.

Mage Tradition
When you reach 2nd level, you choose a mage tradition, shaping your practice of magic through one of
eight schools, or through the disciplines of Arcane, Fire, or Frost, detailed at the end of the class
description. Your choice grants you features at 2nd level and again at 6th, 10th, and 14th level. Azerothian
magi also often specialize in Necromancy or Illusion, though other traditions are relatively rare.
The most common traditions in Azeroth are the three below: Arcane, Fire, and Frost. Arcane and Frost are
preferred by the students and people of Dalaran, but the grand power of Fire is nothing to be ignored. Other
than the above specializations, necromancers and conjurers (as described in the core rulebook) are
common in Azeroth.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of
your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase
an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Spell Mastery
At 18th level, you have achieved such mastery over certain spells that you can cast them at will with no
mana cost. Choose a 1st-level mage spell and a 2nd-level mage spell that are in your spellbook.
You can cast those spells at their lowest level without expending mana when you have them prepared. If
you want to cast either spell at a higher level (or if the spell consumes mana in its description), you must
expend mana as normal.
By spending 8 hours in study, you can exchange one or both of the spells you chose for different spells of
the same levels.

Signature Spell
When you reach 20th level, you gain mastery over two powerful spells and can cast them with little effort.
Choose two 3rd-level wizard spells in your spellbook as your signature spells. You always have these
spells prepared, they don’t count against the number of spells you have prepared, and you can cast each of
them once at 3rd level without expending mana. When you do so, you can’t do so again until you finish a
short or long rest.
If you want to cast either spell at a higher level, you must expend mana as normal.

Mage Traditions
Arcane
Arcane magi manipulate focused mysterious arcane powers more adeptly than others, destroying enemies
with overwhelming raw magic force.

Arcane Spheres. Starting at 1st level, you gain an arcane sphere whenever you cast an abjuration or
transmutation spell or a damaging spell that deals arcane damage. The arcane sphere orbits your body,
becoming invisible when you wish them to.
Each arcane sphere may be consumed to increase the DC of your next spell by +1 per arcane sphere
consumed. You may have a maximum of 3 arcane spheres, which remain for ten minutes or until used.

Arcane Blast. Also at 2nd level, you gain the ability to unleash blasts of arcane force as an action. This
acts as the Mystic Blast feat, dealing 1d4 Arcane damage per every two levels in Mage. The range is 30 ft.,
and requires a ranged spell attack.

Transmutation Mastery: Transfusion. Starting at 6th level, any hostile target of a transmutation spell you
cast takes 2d6 Arcane damage per spell level after successfully saving against your spell, or at the end of
the spell’s duration. The range of Arcane Blast increases by 20 feet.

Abjuration Mastery: Spell-Flare. At 10th level, you may twist a spell when it is dispelled by your abjuration
spells. Whenever you dispel an ongoing magical effect on a target, you may opt to deal 1d4 Arcane

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

damage per spell level dispelled to the target. This damage cannot be resisted, and applies only once per
round. Whenever you cast dispel magic, mana burn, and mana shield, it costs you one less point of mana.
You may also sacrifice all your Arcane Spheres to reduce mana cost of one spell cast. The reduction in
mana cost is one point less per Arcane Sphere removed (minimum mana 1). This may be used once per
hour.

Rune of Power. Starting at 14th level, you may use an action to create a rune of power up to 30 feet away
that focuses the ley lines of the realm you are in. The rune occupies a 5-feet square. Any creature standing
on this rune casts their spells with one less point of mana (minimum 1). This rune can be treated as a
fountain of mana, but for one creature only. You may dispel this rune with a reaction. The rune remains for
one hour. You may create three runes before requiring a long rest.

Fire
A fire mage ignites enemies with bolts of fire and exploding flames.

Controlled Destruction. Beginning at 2nd level, you can create pockets of relative safety within the effects
of your fire evocation spells. When you cast a fire evocation spell that affects other creatures that you can
see, you can choose a number of them equal to 1 + the spell’s level. The chosen creatures automatically
succeed on their saving throws against the spell, and they take no damage if they would normally take half
damage on a successful save.
Also, whenever you set a target on fire with your fire spells, they are considered to be poisoned
(disadvantage to attack rolls and ability checks) so long as they are aflame.

Student of Flame. Also beginning at 2nd level, you may scribe evocation spells with other energy types as
fire spells in your spellbook. The spells act the same way, unless the DM rules it is unreasonable (such as
a slippery effect on a fire sleet spell). You also gain resistance to fire damage.

Scorch. Starting at 6th level, you may cast Fire Bolt as a bonus action. Also, you may critically hit with any
ranged fire spell attack on a 19 and a 20, dealing double damage. If the spell sets the target on fire, the
saving throw to resist being caught on flame is made at a disadvantage.

Pyromaniac. At 10th level, you add the Pyroblast spell to your spellbook if it isn’t already within it.
Whenever you critically hit with a ranged fire spell, you may spend a bonus action to count as if you
concentrated for one round with your Pyroblast spell. The pyromaniac bonus remains for one minute or
until you cast Pyroblast, and stacks with itself. It cannot exceed the maximum damage you can deal with
Pyroblast, however. For this purpose, you count as if you critically hit if one of the targets of your fire spells
fails by a natural 1 on a saving throw.

Black Fire. Starting at 14th level, you may spend a bonus action when targeting a creature that is immune
or resistant to fire damage, reducing its resistance to damage. If it is immune, it becomes resistant instead.
If resistant, it takes damage normally. If it takes normal damage, it is instead vulnerable. This remains for
one hour, and one creature cannot be subjected to this effect more than once for 24 hours.

Frost
Frost mages freeze their enemies in their tracks, and shatter them with ice magic.

Chilling Effects. Starting at 2nd level, you may use a bonus action to reduce the speed of any target of
your cold spells by 10 feet for one round. If the spell already slows their movement, its speed decrease is
extended by one round.

Student of Frost. Also beginning at 2nd level, you may scribe evocation spells with other energy types as
cold spells in your spellbook. The spells act the same way, unless the DM rules it is unreasonable (such as
a burning effect on a cold spell). You also gain resistance to Cold damage.

Ice Statues. At 6th level, when you deal cold damage that reduces a creature to 0 hit points of a target with
a cold spell, you may opt to freeze them into a statue instead. While they are frozen this way, they are
stabilized.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Ice Lance. Starting at 10th level, you may cast Frostbolt as a bonus action. If you strike a target that is
frozen with the ice lance, the attack is considered a critical hit, which also removes the frozen condition and
frees the target.
Also, Whenever you walk on a liquid that can be frozen at 0 degrees, you may freeze it as you walk and
create a path 10 feet wide from where you step. This consumes a bonus action every round, but allows you
to walk on a frozen path. The frozen path melts away in one minute in normal weather conditions (or does
not melt if it is below freezing temperature).

Deep Freeze. Starting at 14th level, whenever you reduce a target’s hit points to below half their maximum
with a single cold spell or reduce their speed to 0, you may use a bonus action to freeze them into a statue,
opposed by a Stamina saving throw. Frozen targets are incapacitated, and they remain frozen until they are
hit, thaw (depending on the weather conditions), until ten minutes have passed, or until hit with a Frostbolt
(which deals critical damage, as per Ice Lance).

Monk (MNK)
The Monks of Azeroth usually follow Pandaren monastery tradition, ever since they were subjugated by the
mogu. They usually act independently from factions, seeing the ebb and flow of right and wrong to belong
with neither sides, and can be found in the most unusual of places, seeking wisdom or enlightenment.

CREATING A MONK

QUICK BUILD
You can make a monk quickly by following these suggestions. First, make Agility your highest ability score,
followed by Spirit. Second, choose the hermit background.

CLASS FEATURES
As a monk, you gain the following class features.

HIT POINTs
Hit Dice: 1d8 per monk level
Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Stamina modifier
Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + your Stamina modifier per monk level after 1st

PROFICIENCIES
Armor: None
Weapons: Simple weapons, shortswords, darts, quarterstaffs
Tools: Choose one type of artisan’s tools or one musical instrument.
Saving Throws: Strength, Agility

Unarmored Defense
Beginning at 1st level, while you are wearing no armor and not wielding a shield, your AC equals 10 + your
Agility modifier + your Spirit modifier.

Martial Arts
At 1st level, your practice of martial arts gives you mastery of combat styles that use unarmed strikes and
monk weapons, which are shortswords and any simple melee weapons that don’t have the two-handed or
heavy property.
You gain the following benefits while you are unarmed or wielding only monk weapons and you aren’t
wearing armor or wielding a shield:

● You can use Agility instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your unarmed strikes and
monk weapons.
● You can roll a d4 in place of the normal damage of your unarmed strike or monk weapon. This die
changes as you gain monk levels, as shown in the Martial Arts column of the Monk table.
● When you use the Attack action with an unarmed strike or a monk weapon on your turn, you can
make one unarmed strike as a bonus action. For example, if you take the Attack action and attack
with a quarterstaff, you can also make an unarmed strike as a bonus action, assuming you haven't
already taken a bonus action this turn.
Certain monasteries use specialized forms of the monk weapons. For example, you might use a nunchaku
(club that is two lengths of wood connected by a short chain) or a kama (sickle with a shorter, straighter
blade), or even a large tankard of alcohol (club). Whatever name you use for a monk weapon, you can use
the game statistics provided for the weapon in chapter 5 of the PHB.

Ki
Starting at 2nd level, your training allows you to harness the mystic energy of ki (or Chi within Pandaren
circles). Your access to this energy is represented by a number of ki points. You have a number of Ki points
equal to your monk level.
You can spend these points to fuel various ki features. You start knowing three such features: Flurry of
Blows, Patient Defense, and Step of the Wind. You learn more ki features as you gain levels in this class.
When you spend a ki point, it is unavailable until you finish a short or long rest, at the end of which you
draw all of your expended ki back into yourself.

You must spend at least 30 minutes of the rest meditating to regain your ki points. Some of your ki features
require your target to make a saving throw to resist the feature’s effects.
The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:
Ki save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Spirit modifier

Flurry of Blows
Immediately after you take the Attack action on your turn, you can spend 1 ki point to make two unarmed
strikes as a bonus action.

Patient Defense
You can spend 1 ki point to take the Dodge action as a bonus action on your turn.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Step of the Wind

You can spend 1 ki point to take the Disengage or Dash action as a bonus action on your turn, and your
jump distance is doubled for the turn.

Imbue into Brew

You can spend multiple Ki points into imbuing brews (alcohol, tea, etc.) you know. This spent Ki cannot be
regained so long as the brew is still active. While so imbued, drinks grant specific bonuses to the imbiber
(much like potions). This is detailed further under the Brewer ability (see below).

Unarmored Movement
Starting at 2nd level, your speed increases by 10 feet while you are not wearing armor or wielding a shield.
This bonus increases when you reach certain monk levels, as shown in the Monk table.
At 9th level, you gain the ability to move along vertical surfaces and across liquids on your turn without
falling during the move.

Brewer
Starting at 2nd level, you gain proficiency in brewer’s supplies and can imbue a pint of drink (alcohol, tea,
or any other brew the monk declares) with a measure of your Ki, reducing your maximum Ki pool by the
amount of points you use.
Once a creature that requires drink consumes a pint of an imbued brew, they gain the listed benefit for
eight (8) hours, until they take a long rest, or until they make use of three uses of the effect (whichever is
sooner).
When the drink is consumed, the your ki maximum is restored (and are able to regain Ki after resting as
normal).
A creature cannot benefit from more than one brew at any given time, and cannot benefit if they do not
require drink or food to stay alive, or if they cannot reasonably process drinks. Such brews are usually
carried around with the monk in a keg or in several bottles.
Drinking a brew costs a bonus action if willing, or an action and a melee unarmed attack if unwilling (or as
part of a grapple). A monk starts with the following brew at 2nd level, and can gain more depending on
specialization.
● Fortifying Brew. All creatures who drink this brew increase their maximum hit points by 1 per monk
level (max is equal to double the imbiber’s original hit points). If the character later suffers from a
reduction to maximum hit points, it is reduced from the benefit of Fortifying Brew first. This benefit is
passive, and dissipates instantaneously if the creature is reduced to 0 hit points.
This does not stack with Power Word: Fortitude. Cost: 1 Ki per pint.
A character can brew and imbue as much drinks as they could prepare, but the ki in brews dissipates
naturally over the course of three days and the monk can regain the lost ki by resting unless the monk re-
imbues them (not an action so long as willing). This is considered a ki feature, and has the same DC to
resist.

Monk Tradition
When you reach 3rd level, you commit yourself to a monk tradition: the way of the Brewmaster, who excels
in mysterious drinks, the way of the Mistweaver, who heals themselves and others, or the way of the
Windwalker, the adventurous and evasive combatant.
All traditions are detailed at the end of the class description. Your tradition grants you features at 3rd level
and again at 6th, 11th, and 17th level.

Deflect Missiles
Starting at 3rd level, you can use your reaction to deflect or catch the missile when you are hit by a ranged
weapon attack. When you do so, the damage you take from the attack is reduced by 1d10 + your Strength
or Agility modifier (your choice) + your monk level.
If you reduce the damage to 0, you can catch the missile if it is small enough for you to hold in one hand
and you have at least one hand free. If you catch a missile in this way, you can spend 1 ki point to make a
ranged attack with the weapon or piece of ammunition you just caught, as part of the same reaction. You
make this attack with proficiency, regardless of your weapon proficiencies, and the missile counts as a
monk weapon for the attack.

Ability Score Improvement

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of
your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1.

As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Slow Fall
Beginning at 4th level, you can use your reaction when you fall to reduce any falling damage you take by
an amount equal to five times your monk level.

Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your
turn.

Stunning Strike
Starting at 5th level, you can interfere with the flow of ki in an opponent’s body. When you hit another
creature with a melee weapon attack, you can spend 1 ki point to attempt a stunning strike. The target must
succeed on a Stamina saving throw or be stunned until the end of your next turn.

Ki-Empowered Strikes
Starting at 6th level, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and
immunity to non-magical attacks and damage.

Evasion
At 7th level, your instinctive agility lets you dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as a blue
dragon’s lightning breath or a fireball spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make an
Agility saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving
throw, and only half damage if you fail.

Stillness of Mind
Starting at 7th level, you can use your action to end one effect on yourself that is causing you to be
charmed or frightened.

Purity of Body
At 10th level, your mastery of the ki flowing through you makes you immune to disease and poison.

Tongue of Sun and Moon

Starting at 13th level, you learn to touch the ki of other minds so that you understand all spoken languages.
Moreover, any creature that can understand a language can understand what you say.

Diamond Soul
Beginning at 14th level, your mastery of ki grants you proficiency in all saving throws.
Additionally, whenever you make a saving throw and fail, you can spend 1 ki point to reroll it and take the
second result. During that time, you also have resistance to all damage but force damage.
Additionally, you can spend 8 ki points to cast the astral projection spell, without needing material
components. When you do so, you can’t take any other creatures with you.

Perfect Self
At 20th level, when you roll for initiative and have no ki points remaining, you regain 4 ki points.

Monk Traditions
Brewmaster
Brewmaster monks are focused on evading blows and empowering themselves and their allies through
their brews, and make the most common of monk adventurers.
Brewmaster Focus. Upon reaching 3rd level and gaining this monk tradition, you gain two new brews to
your repertoire.
● Elusive Brew. All creatures who drink this brew can use a reaction to dodge. This can be used
three times before the effect dissipates (8 hours or until a long rest).

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

● Dizzying Haze. All creatures who drink this brew suffer from light obstruction to perception, and
lose one-fourth of their speed. The creature can make a Stamina saving throw to negate the
obstruction to vision and reduce their speed lost to half against one use. This can be used three
times before the effect dissipates.
If targeted with a fire spell or effect, the creature is set on fire, taking 1d4 fire damage on the start of
each of its turns until they use an action to set it out. This requires an Agility saving throw against
the monk’s ki DC.
You may also add the following Ki power to your repertoire.
● Breath of Fire. As an action, you can cast Burning Hands as a 1st level spell. This effect is voice-
based, requiring that you be able to speak (and are not silenced), but does not require gestures.
Cost: 2 Ki + 1 per spell level above 1st (maximum 1 level per 3 monk levels)

Brewmaster Ki. Upon reaching 6th level, you gain the following new Ki powers and add them to your
repertoire.
● Purifying Touch [Strike]. As an action, you can cast Dispel Magic as a 3nd level spell. This
requires touching the effect or creature that is subject to the effect. You may alternatively add this to
an existing attack with a bonus action (in which case, this becomes a [Strike] effect). Cost: 3 Ki + 1
per spell level above 3rd (maximum 1 level per 3 monk levels).
● Evasive Footing [Stance]. You may enter a stance that allows you to ignore attacks of opportunity
from movement so long as you do not move more than half your speed, and as long as your AC is
higher than 8 + the attack bonus of the creatures you are evading. If a creature’s attack bonus is
high enough to reach the value, they may make attacks of opportunity normally. This is a [Stance]
effect. Cost: 1 Ki to enter stance. Remains until dispelled.
Ox Stance [Stance]. Starting at 11th level, you may enter this stance. While in this stance, you may add
your Spirit modifier to all saving throws. If you are subjected to damage that is equal to or more than one-
fourth your original hit points while in this stance, you gain resistance to the attack suffered. If you move
more than half your speed, the effects of this stance are disrupted. Entering this stance costs 2 Ki.

Zen Pose [Stance]. Starting at 17th level, you can use your action to enter a Zen pose. So long as you do
not take damage from an attack and do not fail a saving throw, your enemies have disadvantage to attack
rolls against you, and you have advantage to all saving throws. Whenever you make a successful saving
throw, or when a hostile target misses you with an attack roll due to the disadvantage, you regain 1 Ki point
(maximum 6 or normal maximum Ki).
This stance effect is disrupted if you take damage from an attack roll or fail a saving throw. This can be
used once per long rest. Entering this stance costs 2 Ki.

Mistweaver
Mistweaver monks are focused on empowering and supporting allies, and are usually the most elusive of
the monk disciplines.
Mistweaver Focus. Upon reaching 3rd level and gaining this monk tradition, you gain two new brews to
your repertoire.
● Mana Tea. All creatures who drink this brew can regain 2 points of mana or Ki. As normal mana
regeneration effects, this effect has a cooldown of an hour (even if used for Ki). Cost: 2 Ki.
● Thunder Focus Tea. All creatures who drink this brew reduce the mana or Ki cost for area-of-effect
and multi-target spells by 1 point. This can be used three times before the effect dissipates, or for 8
hours (whichever comes first). Cost: 2 Ki.
You may also add the following Ki power to your repertoire.
● Soothing Mist. As an action, you may expend Ki and gain a cloud of healing mists. The creature
gains 5 hit points for every Ki point invested. You may target a creature up to 30 feet away (or a
number of creatures within 30 feet of one another), and distribute healing amongst as many
creatures as you wish. If benefitting from Thunder Focus Tea, the this is treated as an eligible spell
effect.
Alternatively, you can expend hit points from your pool of healing to cure the target of one disease
or neutralize one poison affecting it, with a number of hit points required equal to one-half the saving
throw DC of the poison (round up). You can cure multiple diseases and neutralize multiple poisons
with a single use of Soothing Mist, expending hit points separately for each one. This feature has no
effect on constructs or undead. Cost: 1 Ki for 5 hit points.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Mistweaver Ki. Upon reaching 6th level, you gain the following new Ki powers and add them to your
repertoire.
● Control Ki. As an action, you may cast Mute as a 2nd level spell. Upon reaching 9th level, you may
also cast Dispel Magic as a 3rd level spell. You may either cast them with their normal ranges, or
imbue them into your brews. In this case, they are the only imbued effect. Cost: 2 Ki + 1 per spell
level above 2nd (maximum 1 level per 3 monk levels).
Special: The cost of imbuing a brew is equal to the cost of manifesting it.
● Mist Weave. As an action, you can cast Fog Cloud and Blink Step as 2nd level spells. In mists and
fog, you suffer only light obstruction, and never heavy obstruction. Cost: 2 Ki + 1 per spell level
above 2nd (maximum 1 level per 3 monk levels).

Spirited Crane Stance [Stance]. Starting at 11th level, you may enter this stance. While in this stance,
whenever you successfully deal damage to a creature with an unarmed strike, you may restore hit points to
an ally within 30 feet of you, with the number of hit points being equal to your proficiency bonus. The
healing acts as a stream between the ally and you, and if interposed by another creature, it gains the
healing instead if it spends a reaction. You can heal yourself through this ability, through in this case any
adjacent creature can gain the healing if they spend a reaction. If you move more than half your speed, the
effects of this stance are disrupted. Entering this stance costs 1 Ki.

Enlightenment. Starting at 17th level, you may cast the Resurrection spell by spending 8 Ki points, or the
Revivify spell by spending 4 Ki. Neither can be used more than once in any given 24 hours.

Windwalker
Windwalker monks are focused on hand-to-hand combat, and are usually the most confrontational of the
monk disciplines.
Windwalker Recipes. Upon reaching 3rd level and gaining this monk tradition, you gain two new brews to
your repertoire. Windwalker effect can cover one minute in any given hour for eight hours so long as the
brew is active, and the effect triggers whenever the creature feels threatened. After benefitting, the creature
requires double the normal daily requirement of food to avoid starvation.
● Tigereye Brew. All creatures who drink this brew (including you) can add your Spirit bonus to
damage rolls. This can be used up to three times before dissipating. Cost: 1 Ki.
● Ki Guard Brew. All creatures who drink this brew take 2 less points of damage from Weapon Attack
rolls. This does not stack with the Paladin’s Devotion Aura and similar effects. This can be used up
to three times before dissipating. Cost: 2 Ki.
You may also add the following Ki power to your repertoire.
● Superior Martial Arts. As an action, you may deal your unarmed damage as an area of effect
(expending any number of attacks). You may choose to make it a 5-foot-burst around you (named
the Hurricane Kick), a 10-foot cone (named Fists of Fury), or a 15-foot line (named the Flying
Serpent Kick). You may move within the specified area of effect without provoking reactions from
the creatures in the area of effect, so long as you dealt at least 1 point of damage to them (such as
kicking through a line of enemies and landing behind them with a Flying Serpent Kick, or shifting 5
feet to the right after a Gyrocopter Kick, or moving 10 feet to one side after a Fists of Fury). This
action counts as if you made an unarmed attack strike for the purposes of your Martial Arts feature
and Flurry of Blows ability. Cost: 2 Ki.

Windwalker Ki. Upon reaching 6th level, you gain the following new Ki powers and add them to your
repertoire.
● Destroy Ki [Strike]. As an action, you can cast Mana Burn as a 3nd level spell. This requires
touching the effect or creature that is subject to the effect, and does not require vocal components.
You may alternatively add this to an existing attack with a bonus action (in which case, this
becomes a [Strike] effect). Cost: 3 Ki + 1 per spell level above 3rd (maximum 1 level per 3 monk
levels).
● Rising Sun [Strike]. As a bonus action, you may perform an upwards kick, dealing unarmed
damage and imposing an additional effect. You may also choose between dealing extra 2d6
damage, or weakening your target for one minute. The weakness increases the damage the target
takes from you by 1d6 extra damage for one minute. They may make a Strength saving throw
against your DC to half the direct damage and negate the vulnerability.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Combo Attacks. Starting at 11th level, you score a critical hit on a 19-20. If you already possess this
range, the range increases by 1 point (18-20). When you score a critical hit, you may either use any one Ki
ability with no action or Ki cost (such as flurry of blows, Rising Sun, your Superior Martial Arts abilities, or
Quivering Palm once you gain it), or choose to regain 2 Ki.

Quivering Palm. At 17th level, you gain the ability to set up lethal vibrations in someone’s body. When you
hit a creature with an unarmed strike or touch them (even if appearing as a harmless tap, which requires a
Deception check opposed to Insight), you can spend 3 ki points to start these imperceptible vibrations,
which last for a number of days equal to your monk level. The vibrations are harmless unless you use your
action to end them. To do so, you and the target must be on the same plane of existence. When you
declare use this action, the creature must make a Stamina saving throw. If it fails, it is reduced to 0 hit
points. If it succeeds, it takes 10d10 necrotic damage instead.
You can have only one creature under the effect of this feature at a time. You can choose to end the
vibrations harmlessly without using an action.

Paladin (PLD)
Paladins are often from the Alliance, as the Holy Light that grants divine power to paladins is most
commonly followed by Humans, Ironforge Dwarves, and High Elves.

CREATING A PALADIN
Alliance paladins often belong to the Order of the Silver Hand, who prefer use of the greathammer, a
signature weapon of their order.

Quick Build
You can make a paladin quickly by following these suggestions. First, Strength should be your highest
ability score, followed by Charisma. Second, choose the noble background.

Divine Sense
The presence of strong evil registers on your
senses like a noxious odor, and powerful good
rings like heavenly music in your ears. As an
action, you can open your awareness to detect
such forces. Until the end of your next turn, you
know the location of any celestial, fiend, or
undead within 60 feet of you that is not behind
total cover. You know the type (celestial, fiend, or
undead) of any being whose presence you sense,
but not its identity (the lich Kel’Thuzad, for
instance). Within the same radius, you also detect
the presence of any place or object that has been
consecrated or desecrated, as with the hallow
spell. You can use this feature a number of times
equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier. When you
finish a long rest, you regain all expended uses.
Lay on Hands
Your blessed touch can cure wounds. As an
action, you may declare a Lay on Hands,
expending half or all of your maximum mana pool
(choose one), gaining a pool of healing with a
value equal to your proficiency modifier times the
mana spent. Each point of the pool heals 1 hit
point to a living creature, or deals 1 point of Holy
damage to an undead or fiendish creature (in this
case, it requires a melee spell attack). You may
use Lay on Hands as a bonus action when
targeting yourself. All excess hit points from
healing or damaging are lost.
Alternatively, you can expend hit points from your
pool to cure one disease or one poison of your
choice. Each disease or poison requires spending
hit points from the healing pool equal to half the
saving throw of the poison or disease. You may
cure multiple diseases or poisons this way. This
feature has no effect on constructs.
Fighting Style
At 2nd level, you adopt a style of fighting as your
specialty. Choose one of the following options.
You can’t take a Fighting Style option more than
once, even if you later get to choose again.
Version 2.4
Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1
bonus to AC.
Dueling
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one
hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus
to damage rolls with that weapon.
Great Weapon Fighting
When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an
attack you make with a melee weapon that you
are wielding with
two hands, you can reroll the die and must use
the new roll. The weapon must have the two-
handed or versatile property for you to gain this
benefit.
Protection
When a creature you can see attacks a target
other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can
use your
reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack
roll. You must be wielding a shield.
Crusader Strike
Starting at 2nd level, when you hit a creature with
a melee weapon attack, you can expend mana
equal to one paladin spell to deal holy damage to
the target, in addition to the weapon’s damage.
The extra damage is 2d8 for a 1st-level spell, plus
1d8ach spell level higher than 1st, to a maximum
of 5d8. The damage increases by 1d8 if the target
is an undead or fiend.
If you have a seal active, you may also strike
without expending mana, and instead impose
judgment by releasing the seal, ending its effects
prematurely for an additional effect. Despite the
name, Crusader Strike does not count as a Strike
effect.
Spellcasting
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
By 2nd level, you have learned to draw on divine
magic through meditation and prayer to cast
spells as a priest does. The paladin uses his core
spell list, but adds Seal spells as well as the
spells in this document.
Conjuring and Binding
A paladin can conjure and bind celestials.
Preparing and Casting Spells
Each paladin level provides you with 0.5 caster
levels in the paladin class. You follow the normal
progression to unlock spell levels (see the table
under the Mana section).
You can change your list of prepared spells by
consulting your libram (treat as a spellbook).
Preparing a new list of paladin spells requires
time spent in prayer and meditation and reading
your prayer book. It takes one minute per spell
level to alter a prepared spell.
Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your
paladin spells, since their power derives from the
strength of
your convictions. You use your Charisma
whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting
ability. In addition, you
use your Charisma modifier when setting the
saving throw DC for a paladin spell you cast and
when making
an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Charisma modifier
Spellbook – Libram
At 2nd level, your libram contains three 1st-level
paladin spells of your choice. When you level up,
you gain 2 additional paladin spells of your
choice. You may also acquire new spells by
research, tutelage, or from the spellbooks and
scrolls of spellcasters who have spells you can
cast.
Your libram is effectively your spellbook, and you
may add spells by scribing it with new insights
regarding the faith and how to protect and
promote it. Unlike arcane spellcasters, you can
choose any spell you prepared before in your
libram, regardless of whether you currently own it
or not.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use your holy libram as a spellcasting
focus for your paladin spells, as well as the store
for them.
Aura
Version 2.4
Starting at 3rd level, you may exert an aura you
can emit in a 15-foot radius sphere centered on
you as a bonus action. You may maintain
concentration with this effect for up to 1 hour.
Unlike most effects that require concentration,
you may also maintain concentration on spell at
the same time. You still suffer the chance to lose
the aura (DC 10 or half damage Stamina saving
throw). Once the aura ends, you cannot exert it
again until you rest (but you can exert other
auras).
All effects are treated as unholy and fel effects
that have no saving throw, but can be negated by
Protection From Evil and Good and suppressed
for 1 minute with dispel magic and similar
abjurations. If you are rendered unconscious, the
effect ends automatically. If an aura can be
resisted, it is a Spirit saving throw with a DC
equal to your spell DC.
Aura bonuses do not stack with other aura
bonuses. Creatures affected by auras
automatically sense where they are emanating
from.
Devotion At level 3, you have the aura of
devotion. All allied creatures reduce the number
of hit points they take from Weapon Attack rolls
by a number equal to your proficiency bonus. This
cannot reduce the damage below 1 point. This
opposes Abandonment Aura, and both effects are
negated.
Retribution At level 6, you have the aura of
retribution. Whenever an allied creature is
damaged with a melee weapon attack, the
attacker (if within 5 feet) takes 1d4 holy damage
per attack. This is applied once per proficiency
bonus in the same round, and does not cost a
reaction. The damage the attacker takes cannot
exceed the damage they dealt, however. This can
be resisted to half damage.
This opposes Weakness Aura, and both effects
are negated.
Crusader At level 10, you have the aura of the
crusader. All allied creatures gain a +10 foot
bonus to speed, and all allied creatures
automatically stabilize when reduced to 0 hit
points. Once per proficiency bonus, you may
grant a stabilized creature in your aura 1 hit point
as a reaction to allow them to continue acting.
This opposes Unholy Aura, and both effects are
suppressed.
Concentration At level 14, you have the aura of
concentration. All allied creatures gain advantage
on Stamina saving throws to maintain their
concentration on a spell. Once per proficiency
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
bonus, you may grant any allied creature within
the aura a bonus equal to your proficiency bonus
to their check to concentrate on the spell. This
opposes Distraction Aura, and both effects are
suppressed.
Resistance At level 18, you have the aura of
resistance. You may choose one damage type
(acid, cold, electricity, or fire), and all allies take
less damage from this damage type equal to
double your proficiency bonus (minimum 1 point
of damage). This opposes Vulnerability Aura, and
both effects are suppressed.
Holy Oath
When you reach 3rd level, you walk a path that
defines you as a paladin forever. Up to this time
you have been in a preparatory stage, committed
to the path but not yet sworn to it.
You may choose the Oath of Holiness to aid the
helpless, Oath of Protection to guard the weak, or
Oath of Retribution to smite the wicked, all
detailed at the end of the class description.
Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and
again at 7th, 15th, and 20th level. Those features
include oath spells and the Channel Divinity
feature.
Oath Spells
Each oath has a list of associated spells. You
gain access to these spells at the levels specified
in the oath description. Once you gain access to a
oath spell, you always have it prepared.
Oath spells don’t count against the number of
spells you can prepare each day.
If you gain an oath spell that doesn’t appear on
the death knight spell list, the spell is nonetheless
a paladin spell for you.
Channel Divinity
Your path allows you to channel divine energy to
fuel magical effects. Each Channel Divinity option
provided by your path explains how to use it.
When you use your Channel Divinity, you choose
which option to use. You must then finish a short
or long rest to use your Channel Divinity again.
Some Channel Divinity effects require saving
throws. When you use such an effect from this
class, the DC equals your paladin spell save DC.
By default, you may always Turn Undead, and
gain an additional choice from your Path.
Turn Undead
As an action, you present your holy symbol and
speak a prayer censuring fiends and undead,
Version 2.4
using your Channel Divinity. Each fiend or
undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of
you must make a Spirit saving throw.
If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for
1 minute or until it takes damage. A turned
creature must spend its turns trying to move as
far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly
move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t
take reactions. For its action, it can use only the
Dash action or try to escape from an effect that
prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to
move, the creature can use the Dodge action.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase
two ability scores of your choice by 1.
As normal, you can’t increase an ability score
above 20 using this feature.
Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice,
instead of once, whenever you take the Attack
action on your turn.
Divine Health
Starting at 6th level, the divine magics flowing
within you grant you immunity to diseases and
advantage against poison, as well as resistance
against poison damage.
Improved Crusader Strike
By 11th level, you are so suffused with the might
of the Light that all your melee weapon strikes
carry its divine power with it. Whenever you hit a
creature with a melee weapon, the creature takes
an extra 1d8 holy damage. If you also use your
Crusader Strike with an attack, you add this
damage to the extra damage of your Crusader
Strike.
Cleansing Touch
Beginning at 14th level, you can use your action
to end one spell on yourself or on one willing
creature that you touch.
You can use this feature a number of times equal
to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once).
You regain expended uses when you finish a
long rest.
Aura Improvement
Beginning on 18th level, you have advantage to
concentrate on auras, and the range increases to
30 feet.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Sacred Oaths
An Azerothian Paladin chooses from one of the below three sacred oaths.

Oath of Holiness
A Paladin of the Oath of Holiness invokes the power of the Light to protect and heal.

Channel Divinity. When you take this oath at 3rd
level, you gain the below Channel Divinity option.
Light of Dawn. As an action, you present your
holy symbol, and release an outburst of the Holy
Light of Creation, allowing any friendly creature
within 30 feet to use a hit dice as if they rested.
The ally also gains temporary hit points equal to
double your Charisma modifier.
Holy Vision. At 3rd level, you gain the ability to
critically hit with healing spells. When you touch
or target an ally with a touch or ranged healing
spell (such as Cure Wounds or Holy Light), you
may roll a d20. On a natural 19 and 20 (or 10%
chance on a d%), your spell has double
effectiveness. This applies when dealing damage
to undead as well.
Holy Auras. At 7th level, your auras increase in
strength. Your auras range increase to 30 feet,
and can apply two auras at once. When gaining
Aura Improvement, your auras increase to 45
feet.
Latent Prayer. Starting at 15th level, you may
cast a healing spell on a creature that only
activates whenever the creature wishes. This
does not require concentration on your end, and
the creature (or you) may declare use of the spell
as a reaction. This effect remains for one day or
until used, and leaves a holy mark that can be
detected as the healing spell. A creature can only
benefit from one latent prayer until they take a
long rest. This may also be applied to undead.
Illuminated Healer. By 20th level, whenever a
creature that benefits from a healing effect (such
as Light of Dawn, or healing spell) originating
from you manifest a holy shield. This holy shield
grants them temporary hit points equal to the
amount they were healed by you. The holy shield
does not increase the amount shielded if the
healing spell was a critical hit.
This shield remains until the hit points are
reduced to 0, or until ten minutes have passed.
This effect does not stack with itself, and a
creature can benefit from a single holy shield only
once every hour. Your healing spells critically hit
on a natural 18.

A Paladin of the Oath of Protection uses Holy magic to shield him/herself and defend allies against
attackers.

You prepare the list of priest spells that are
available for you to cast, choosing from the priest
spell list.
You can change your list of prepared spells by
meditating and prayer. It takes one minute per
spell level to alter a prepared spell. Unlike arcane
spellcasters, you can choose any spell you
prepared before in your libram (treat as a
spellbook), regardless of whether you currently
own it or not.
Spellcasting Ability
Spirit is your spellcasting ability for your priest
spells, since you learn your spells through
dedication to a higher force.
You use your Spirit whenever a spell refers to
your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Spirit modifier when setting the saving throw DC
for a priest spell you cast and when making an
attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Spirit modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Spirit modifier
Priesthood Spells
Each priesthood has a list of spells—its
priesthood spells—that you gain at the priest
levels noted in the priesthood description. Once
you gain a priesthood spell, you always have it
prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number
of spells you can prepare each day.
If you have a priesthood spell that doesn’t appear
on the priest spell list, the spell is nonetheless a
priest spell for you.
Spellbook – Idol
At 1st level, your idol contains six 1st-level druid
spells of your choice. When you level up, you
gain 2 additional druid spells of your choice. You
may also acquire new spells by research,
tutelage, or from the spellbooks and scrolls of
spellcasters who have spells you can cast.
Your libram is effectively your spellbook, and you
may add spells by meditating, contemplating the
wisdoms, and penning your own insights.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use your holy symbol as a spellcasting
focus for your priest spells.
Version 2.4
Unarmored Defense
Beginning at 1st level, while you are wearing no
armor and not wielding a shield, your AC equals
10 + your Agility modifier + your Spirit modifier.
Channel Divinity
At 2nd level, you gain the ability to channel divine
energy directly from your deity, using that energy
to fuel magical effects. You start with two such
effects: Turn Undead and an effect determined by
your priesthood. Some domains grant you
additional effects as you advance in levels, as
noted in the domain description. When you use
your Channel Divinity, you choose which effect to
create. You must then finish a short or long rest to
use your Channel Divinity again.
Some Channel Divinity effects require saving
throws. When you use such an effect from this
class, the DC equals your priest spell save DC.
Beginning at 6th level, you can use your Channel
Divinity twice between rests, and beginning at
18th level you can use it three times between
rests. When you finish a short or long rest, you
regain your expended uses.
Turn Undead
As an action, you present your holy symbol and
speak a prayer censuring the undead. Each
undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of
you must make a Spirit saving throw. If the
creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1
minute or until it takes any damage.
A turned creature must spend its turns trying to
move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t
willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It
also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use
only the Dash action or try to escape from an
effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s
nowhere to move, the creature can use the
Dodge action.
Desperate Prayer. With a desperate prayer,
starting 2nd level, you can replenish some of your
mana reserves. With a 3-turn action, you can
regain mana equal to 4 + your Priest level. When
used, you do not regenerate mana by rest or time
for the next four hours. This ability can be used
after restoring mana from a different source.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase
two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal,
you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using
this feature.

Priest Domains
A priest can be under one of the below priesthoods.

Death Priesthood
The Death Priesthood is granted by the Lich King, and is primarily used by acolytes and death priests.

Channel Divinity
Death priests exchange the ability to Turn Undead with Turn Living.

Turn Living
You may turn any living creature instead of turning undead. This has no effect on constructs. This is a fear-
based effect.

Destroy Living
Starting at 5th level, when a living creature fails its saving throw against your Channel Divinity feature, the
creature is instantly destroyed if its challenge rating is at or below a certain threshold, as shown in the
Destroy Living table. It disintegrates, leaving only a pile of dust, so says the Lich King.

Discipline Priesthood
A discipline priest follows the tenets of balance and self-improvement through chakra training. The
discipline priest uses magic to shield allies from taking damage as well as heal their wounds.
Discipline Priesthood Spells
1st Power Word: Fortitude, Sanctuary
3rd Power Word: Shield, Levitate
5th Remove Curse, Warding Bond
7th Death Ward, Stoneskin
9th Hold Monster, Telekinesis
Chakra Ward. Beginning at 1st level, while you
are wearing no armor and not wielding a shield,
you take 3 less damage from all nonmagical
slashing, piercing, and bludgeoning damage.
Extended Wards. Also beginning at 1st level,
you double the duration of any active spell that
grants temporary hit points and all Power Word
spells.
Channel Divinity. Damage Ward. Starting at
level 2, you may use a channel divinity attempt to
grant any ally within 30 ft. resistance against any
type of damage they specify. This resistance
remains for one round.
Channel Divinity. Reflecting Ward. Starting at
6th level, whenever a creature benefitting from
your Damage Ward ability is damaged, you may
use a channel divinity attempt and a reaction to
reflect half the damage dealt back to the creature
who dealt it.
Make a ranged spell attack, and on a success,
the creature damaging your ally is damaged
themselves by half their own damage. This does
not alter the type of damage dealt.
Chakra Cleansing. Starting at 8th level,
whenever you cast a shielding spell, you may
perform one of the two abilities with a bonus
action.
● You may dispel any magical effect the
target suffers from. This acts as dispel
magic with a spell level equal to the level
of the shielding spell you cast.
● You may grant additional temporary hit
points equal to double the spell level.
Infused Shield. Starting at 17th level, whenever
you cast a healing or shielding spell, you may
freely convert temporary hit points from your
spells to actual hit points, or vice versa. A healing
spell that grants temporary hit points is counted
as a shielding spell, and benefits from the Chakra
Cleansing, Extended Wards, and Shielding Power
abilities.

Holy Light Priesthood

The light priesthood follows the Cult of the Holy Light, a major faith in Azeroth. The holy priest is a versatile
healer who can reverse damage on individuals or groups and even heal from beyond the grave.

Holy Priesthood Spells

1st Bless, Holy Light
3rd Lesser Restoration, Spiritual Weapon
5th Beacon of Hope, Revivify
7th Death Ward, Guardian of Faith
9th Prayer of Healing, Raise Dead

Light’s Insight. Starting at 1st level, when you cast a healing spell, there is a 10% chance (a 19 or 20 on a
d20) that the spell critically hits, dealing double healing or damage. You may also turn fiends when you turn
undead.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Light’s Embrace. Also starting at 1st level, your healing spells are more effective. Whenever you use a
spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal
to 2 + the spell’s level. This bonus healing is not doubled on a critical spell cast.

Channel Divinity. Restore Life. Starting at 2nd level, you may use your action while presenting your holy
symbol to evoke healing energy that can restore a number of hit points equal to five times your priest level.
Choose any creatures within 30 feet of you, and divide those hit points among them. This feature can
restore a creature to no more than half of its hit point maximum. You can’t use this feature on a construct,
but may target undead to damage by expending healing, dealing holy damage instead of healing them.
Channel Divinity. Focused Casting. Starting at 6th level, you may use a channel energy attempt to alter
the target of any invigorate healing spell you cast on a target. This does not reduce the duration, and may
be used outside the target’s turn. You may use this instead to grant the target another benefit of the
invigorate spell in the same round. This does not cost an action.

Angelic Form. Starting at 8th level, you may ascend temporarily to become an angelic being, becoming
incorporeal, and regaining half total hit points and mana points, and dispelling one magical effect on you.
While in this form, you may only cast healing, restorative, and domain spells. After one minute, you return
to your normal form, and become stabilized. This may only be activated when you have less than 10% hit
points remaining or if you are dying. This may be used once per rest.

Guardian Spirit. Starting at 17th level, you may target any ally within 30 ft., granting them a guardian angel
spirit. This spirit increases the amount of healing from all life spells by 50%, and may be sacrificed to either
grant resistance against any one attack the target suffers or automatically stabilize the target if they are
reduced to 0 hit points. This does not affect constructs or undead. This may be used once per rest.

Moon Priesthood
The priesthood of the night-elven goddess Elune is of moon-worship, serenity, and reflection. Elune’s
favored weapon is the bow, and her priests and priestesses favor using subterfuge, ranged weapons, and
hit-and-run techniques to guard her flock.

Shadow Priesthood
The shadow priesthood follows the Cult of the Forgotten Shadow. A shadow priest uses sinister Shadow
magic, especially debilitate spells, to eradicate enemies.
Shadow Priesthood Spells
1st Dissonant Whispers, Sleep
3rd Vampiric Touch, Fear
5th Phantasmal killer, Blight
7th Bestow Curse, Confusion
9th Feeblemind, Hold Monster
Shadow priests also add all damaging psychic spells to their spell list.
Shadow Orbs. Starting at 1st level, you gain a
shadow orb whenever you cast a debilitating spell
or a damaging spell that deals psychic damage.
The shadow orb orbits your body, becoming
invisible when you wish them to.
Each shadow orb may be consumed to increase
the DC of your next spell by +1 per shadow orb
consumed. You may have a maximum of 3
shadow orbs, which remain for ten minutes or
until used.
Mind Quickening. Also starting at 1st level, your
expanded mind gives you the ability to touch the
minds of other creatures. You can communicate
telepathically with any creature you can see
within 30 feet of you. You don’t need to share a
language with the creature for it to understand
your telepathic utterances, but the creature must
be able to understand at least one language.
You may also pronounce the verbal components
of your spells mentally, so that only the target can
hear them.
Channel Divinity. Devouring Plague. Starting at
2nd level, you may use an action while presenting
your unholy symbol to evoke shadow energy,
dealing psychic damage equal to five times your
cleric level, halved with a Spirit saving throw.
Choose any creatures within 30 feet of you, and
divide those damage among them. This feature
can reduce a creature to no more than half of its
hit point maximum. You can’t use this feature on
undead or constructs. You regain hit points equal
to the total damage you dealt. If you have any
active shadow orbs, you may grant one creature
hit points equal to the damage dealt by this ability
using one shadow orb.
You may also deduct three hit points from the
pool to restore one point of mana for you or the
target, up to a maximum number of hit points
equal to five times your priest level. This counts
as a mana restoration effect.
Channel Divinity. Focused Psyche. Starting at
6th level, you may use a channel energy attempt
to alter the target of any debilitate spell you cast
on a target. This does not reduce the duration,
and may be used outside the target’s turn. You
may use this instead to afflict the target with
another listed penalty of the debilitate spell in the
same round. This does not cost an action.
Shadowy Form. Starting at 8th level, you may
ascend temporarily to become a shadowy being,
becoming incorporeal, and regaining half total hit
points and mana points, and dispelling one
magical effect on you.
While in this form, you may only cast psychic,
debilitative, and domain spells. After one minute,
you return to your normal form, and become
stabilized. This may only be activated when you
have less than 10% hit points remaining or if you
are dying. This may be used once per rest.
You also have resistance against psychic
damage, and your mind cannot be read.
Vampiric Embrace. Starting at 17th level,
whenever you deal damage with a debilitating or
psychic effect, you may divide the total damage
dealt by four at the end of your round, and then
grant it as healing to allies within 30 feet, dividing
the healing evenly. You may instead divide the
damage by eight, and grant it as mana
restoration. This counts as a mana restoration
effect.

Rogue (RGE)
Rogues represent thieves, treasure-hunters, cunning spies, and aspiring adventurers. Using their skills and
cunning (and sometimes gifted with a knack for technology or strange magics), rogues are always welcome
to any faction, and many work for more than two at any given time as scouts, double agents, and false
merchants.

messages, such as whether an area is dangerous
or the territory of a thieves’ guild, whether loot is
nearby, or whether the people in an area are easy
marks or will provide a safe house for thieves on
the run.
Cunning Action
Starting at 2nd level, your quick thinking and
agility allow you to move and act quickly. You can
take a bonus action on each of your turns in
combat to use the following action: Dash,
Disengage, or Hide.
Roguish Archetype
At 3rd level, you choose an archetype that you
emulate in the exercise of your rogue abilities:
Assassination, which focuses on capturing the
opponent unawares a quickly dispatching of
them, Combat, which focuses on dueling and
swashbuckler behavior, and Subtlety, which
attunes one’s self with shadows so much that
they begin to aid him. All are detailed at the end
of the class description. Your archetype choice
grants you features at 3rd level and then again at
9th, 13th, and 17th level.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 10th,
12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one
ability score of your choice by 2, or you can
increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As
normal, you can’t increase an ability score above
20 using this feature.
Uncanny Dodge
Starting at 5th level, when an attacker that you
can see hits you with an attack, you can use your
reaction to halve the attack’s damage against
you.
Evasion
Beginning at 7th level, you can nimbly dodge out
of the way of certain area effects, such as a red
dragon’s fiery breath or an ice storm spell. When
you are subjected to an effect that allows you to
make an Agility saving throw to take only half
damage, you instead take no damage if you
succeed on the saving throw, and only half
damage if you fail.
Reliable Talent
Starting at 11th level, you may gain one of the
following abilities to represent your ability to
function under pressure, either by quick thinking,
good use of skill, and lightning-fast reflexes:
Bomb Expertise, Cloak of Shadows, Fan of
Version 2.4
Knives, or Measured Skill. The DC to any ability
(if any) is equal to 8 + Agility or Strength +

● Flash Bomber. Starting at 11th level, you
may use a bonus action or reaction to
activate or make use of any alchemical
item or engineered bomb you have
instead of an action. If you do not have
proficiency in Alchemy or Engineering,
you gain proficiency in one as well as the
benefits of this ability. This may be used at
a number of times equal to your
Intelligence modifier before a long rest.
● Cloak of Shadows. Starting at 11th level,
you may use your reaction to dispel any
active number of spell effect on you
(succeeding automatically against any
spell equal to or less than half your rogue
level, or rolling against a DC of 10 + spell
level with a bonus to your check equal to
your Intelligence if the spell’s level is
higher than half your rogue level), and
giving yourself advantage to all saving
throws against spells for one minute. This
may be used at a number of times equal
to your Intelligence modifier before a rest.
● Fan of Knives. Starting at 11th level, you
may target any number of enemies in a 30
foot-sphere, centered on you with a flurry
of throwing knives as an action. Roll a
number of d6 equal to your rogue level,
and distribute the damage evenly amongst
all opponents within 30 feet of you, with an
Agility saving throw to half damage. This
may be used at a number of times equal
to your Agility modifier before a rest, and
each use requires one knife (or any similar
type of light thrown weapon) per target.
● Measured Skill. Whenever you make an
ability check that lets you add your
proficiency bonus, you can treat a d20 roll
of 9 or lower as a 10.
Blindsense
Starting at 14th level, if you are able to hear, you
are aware of the location o f any hidden or

Combat
Combat rogues are swashbucklers, duelists, and thieves who use agility and guile to stand toe-to-toe with
opponents.
Riposte. Starting at 3rd level, you may deflect an
incoming attack by using a reaction, thereby
adding your Proficiency bonus to your AC. If your
AC is then high enough to make the enemy miss
after it would have been a success, you can make
an attack of opportunity against the enemy.
Combat rogues also gain proficiency with firearms
and explosives.
Revealing Strike [Strike]. Also at 3rd level, a
target struck with this ability must make an Agility
saving throw opposed by your own. If you
succeed, the target loses all increases to AC from
a single type against all targets for until the end of target fails the saving throw, it gains one of the

Quick Combatant. Beginning at 9th level, you
can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you
take the Attack action on your turn.
If you roll a successful attack roll with one of
these attacks, you may forgo dealing damage
with that attack to give yourself advantage on the
next attack you make. This may only be done with
melee attacks.
Disabling Strike [Strike]. Starting at 13th level,

your Disabling Strike in 24 hours.

Killing Spree. Starting at 17th level, you tap into
your reserves of speed, going into a killing spree.
While you are in this state, you may double your
movement and gain advantage on your first
attack at the beginning of every round. Your
Subtlety
A subtlety rogue is a dark stalker who leaps from the shadows to ambush unsuspecting prey, aided by
mysterious shadow-magic.
Shadow Spellcasting
Drawing on mysterious shadow-magics, you can
cast spells to shape that essence to your will. You
cast spells drawn from the Mage spell list, and
are restricted to spells from the Conjuration and
Illusion schools. You may also scribe spells in
Thieves’ Cant. You also gain a spellbook as a
1st-level mage.
You gain bonus spells on your 8th, 14th, and 20th
level. These spells can be of any schools.
Cantrips
At 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice
from the Mage spell list. You learn additional
Mage cantrips of your choice at higher levels,
equal to one-third your Rogue level + 2
(maximum 4). One of your cantrips must be the
Mage Hand spell.
Preparing and Casting Spells
Each mage level provides you with ⅓ a caster
level in the Mage class (1 at 3rd level). You follow
the normal progression to unlock spell levels (see
the table under the Mana section).
You prepare the list of Mage spells that are
available for you to cast, choosing from the Mage
spell list.
Your spellcasting otherwise follows the same
rules as the mage class (with regards to which
creatures you can conjure, spellbooks, etc.
Spellcasting Ability
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your
Mage spells, since your magic draws upon your
attunement to arcane powers. You use your
Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your
spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Intelligence modifier when setting the saving
movement doesn't provoke opportunity attacks.
This state remains for 1 minute, or until you
spend one of your rounds without making an
attack roll or if you are not targeted with an attack
roll. This may be used once per short rest.
throw DC for a mage spell you cast and when
making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Intelligence modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Intelligence modifier
Premeditation. Also on 3rd level, you may use 3
rounds (counted as 3 actions) to study an enemy.
If you do, you may always apply your sneak
attack damage against them (even without
advantage or an ally nearby) for one minute,
unless they move more than their normal speed
in one round. In addition, any hit you score
against a creature that is surprised is a critical hit.
Vanish. Starting at 9th level, you may grant
yourself invisibility as a reaction. This invisibility
remains until the end of your next turn. This may
be used once per point of Intelligence modifier,
and replenishes after a rest.
Shadow Dance. Starting at 13th level, you may
initiate a shadow dance by moving more than 10
feet. While in this stance, you grant yourself
concealment as per the Blur spell as long as you
are moving at (or more than) 10 feet per round.
While in the stance, creatures affected or
distracted by your spells (such as a summoned
monster or an image illusion) grant you
advantage to your first attack at any round. This
may be used once per short rest, and remains so
long as you continue moving.
Backstab. Starting at 17th level, when you target
any creature below half hit points with a sneak
attack, you may deal double sneak attack
damage. A target subjected to this effect once
cannot be subjected to it again for 24 hours.

Shaman (SHM)
Commanding chaotic and conflicting elements, a shaman is a force that hears the world tremble and directs
its wrath. Communicating with spirits of flame, winds, and stone, shamans channel the power of the storm,
earth, and fire to their will. They are commonly found in the Horde, representing the spiritual renewal and
development of the orcish people, but the art can also be found amongst the Tauren, few dwarves and
goblins, and even the strange alien folk called the Draenei. A shaman’s holy symbol is a small ancestral
relic or totem of bone, wood, or iron that can be carried in one’s hand.
The elements are chaotic, and left to their own devices, they rage against one another in unending primal
fury. It is the call of the shaman to bring balance to this chaos. Acting as moderators among earth, fire,

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

water, and air, shaman summon totems that focus the elements to support the shaman’s allies or punish
those who threaten them.
The shamans of Azeroth function identically as base priests in terms of spell lists, except with the following
changes: they modify the [Turn and Destroy Undead] abilities and may also add all totem and shaman
spells to their spell list.

CREATING A SHAMAN
Note that any shaman may convert their every shaman level to a Warlock level with a one-time quest,
usually by attuning themselves to the fel energies of the burning legion, killing a demon and siphoning its
mana, or being touched by a demonic entity or organization.

QUICK BUILD
You can make a shaman quickly by following these suggestions. First, Spirit should be your highest ability
score, followed by Strength or Stamina. Second, choose the hermit background.

Kalimag
You know Kalimag, the language of elementals
and wind, earth, fire, and water spirits. You can
speak the language and use it to leave hidden
messages. You and others who know this
language automatically spot such a message. If
you can speak kalimag, you can communicate
with all other shamans and elementals, even if
you don’t otherwise share a language.
Shamanistic Art
Choose one shamanistic art or focus related to
how you view the elements and how they have
received you, such as Elemental to focus on
bringing the elements’ wrath down, enhancement
to strengthen yourself through the elements, or
restoration, in which the elements are in balance.
Each art is detailed at the end of the class
description.
Your choice grants you art spells and other
features when you choose it at 1st level. It also
grants you additional ways to use Channel
Elements when you gain that feature at 2nd level,
and additional benefits at 6th, 8th, and 17th
levels.
Art Spells
Each art has a list of spells—its art spells—that
you gain at the shaman levels noted in the art
description. Once you gain a art spell, you always
have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the
number of spells you can prepare each day. If
you have a art spell that doesn’t appear on the
priest spell list, the spell is nonetheless a shaman
spell for you.
Spellcasting
As a practitioner of raw elemental magic, you may
choose from the shaman spell lists which spells
you wish for every day. A shaman also casts
priest spells.
Cantrips
At 1st level, you know three cantrips of your
choice from the shaman spell list. You learn
additional shaman cantrips of your choice at
higher levels, equal to half your Shaman level + 2
(maximum 6).
Conjuring and Binding
A shaman can conjure and bind elementals and
fiends.
Preparing and Casting Spells
Each shaman level provides you with 1 caster
level in the shaman class. You follow the normal
Version 2.4
progression to unlock spell levels (see the table
under the Mana section).
You prepare the list of shaman spells that are
available for you to cast, choosing from the
shaman spell list.
You can change your list of prepared spells by
meditating and contemplating. It takes one minute
per spell level to alter a prepared spell. Unlike
arcane spellcasters, you can choose any spell
you prepared before in your totem (treat as a
spellbook), regardless of whether you currently
own it or not.
Spellcasting Ability
Spirit is your spellcasting ability for your shaman
spells, since you learn your spells through primal
contact with the elemental forces.
You use your Spirit whenever a spell refers to
your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Spirit modifier when setting the saving throw DC
for a shaman spell you cast and when making an
attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Spirit modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Spirit modifier
Spellbook – Totem
At 1st level, your totem contains six 1st-level
shaman spells of your choice. When you level up,
you gain 2 additional shaman spells of your
choice. You may also acquire new spells by
research, tutelage, or from the spellbooks and
scrolls of spellcasters who have spells you can
cast.
Your totem is effectively your spellbook, and you
may add spells by meditating with it and burning
incense and rare herbs.
Spellcasting Focus
You can use your shamanistic symbol as a
spellcasting focus for your shaman spells. These
are typically totems, tufts of wolf hair, or a carving
of your spiritual animal.
Channel Elements
At 2nd level, you gain the ability to channel
elemental energy directly, using that energy to
fuel magical effects. You start with two such
effects: Turn Elementals and an effect determined
by your art. Some arts grant you additional effects
as you advance in levels, as noted in the art
description. When you use your Channel
Elements, you choose which effect to create. You
must then finish a short or long rest to use your
Channel Elements again.
Some Channel Elements effects require saving
throws. When you use such an effect from this
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
class, the DC equals your shaman spell save DC.
Beginning at 6th level, you can use your Channel
Elements twice between rests, and beginning at
18th level you can use it three times between
rests. When you finish a short or long rest, you
regain your expended uses.
Turn Elementals
As an action, you present your shamanistic
symbol and speak a prayer dismissing and
quelling elementals. Each elemental that can see
or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a
Spirit saving throw. If the creature fails its saving
throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any
damage.
A turned creature must spend its turns trying to
move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t
willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It
also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use
only the Dash action or try to escape from an
effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s
nowhere to move, the creature can use the
Dodge action.
While it is turned, you may also opt to calm the
elemental, rendering it passive and not hostile for
one minute. If treated fairly and listened to, the
elemental might reveal why it is angered, and
may demand from the shaman to address a
problem that is wracking the elementals in the
region (or beyond).
Mana Surge
You have learned to regain some of your mana
by invoking power from the elements at 2nd level.
With a 3-turn action, you can regain mana equal
to 4 + your Shaman level. When used, you do not
regenerate mana by rest or time for the next four
hours. This ability can be used after restoring
mana from a different source.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase
two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal,
you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using
this feature.
Destroy/Release Elemental
Shamanistic Arts
An Azerothian shaman may choose one of the three following shamanistic arts at level 1.
Elemental
The elemental art focuses on empowering the shaman’s ability to command the elements to harm their
enemies at long ranges, and gains command over the elements and elementals.
Elemental Art Spells
Version 2.4
Starting at 5th level, when an elemental fails its
saving throw against your Turn Elemental feature,
the creature is either destroyed, dispelled, or
released from its bindings if its challenge rating is
at or below a certain threshold, as shown in the
Destroy Elemental table. This ability only
functions when you declare your intention to
destroy or dispel it.
Destroy/Release Elemental
Shaman Level Destroys Elemental of CR
5th 1/2 or lower
8th 1 or lower
11th 2 or lower
14th 3 or lower
17th 4 or lower
Destroying elementals is a secret art known to
shamans, and is typically only used against
elementals that are corrupted by fel energies, as
elementals are usually receptive to shamans who
manage to turn them (see above).
Releasing elementals is useful to dispel
summoned elementals.
Release elementals can also be used to cause a
malfunction on a device with an elemental engine.
With a use of Destroy/Release Elemental and a
successful Spellcasting check opposed to the
target’s Engineering check, the device can
instantly malfunction and lose all its charges as
the elemental stored in it is freed. It serves the
shaman for 1 day or until it can return the favor,
before leaving.
Elemental Intervention
Beginning at 10th level, you can call on the
elements of Azeroth to intervene on your behalf
when your need is great. Imploring the elements’
aid requires you to use your action. Describe the
assistance you seek, and roll a percentile dice. If
you roll a number equal to or lower than your
shaman level, the elements intervene. The DM
chooses the nature of the intervention; the effect
of any shaman spell or art spell would be
appropriate.
If the elements intervene, you can’t use this
feature again for 7 days. Otherwise, you can use
it again after you finish a long rest. At 20th level,
your call for intervention succeeds automatically,
no roll required.

5th Call Lightning, Conjure Create (Elemental)
7th Control Water, Ice Storm
9th Maelstrom, Planar Binding
Elemental Mastery. Starting at 1st level, you
may change any elemental damage type dealt by
your spells to another type, but only if they deal
one of the following: Cold, Electricity, Fire, and
Thunder.
Acclimation. Also at 1st level, you are also
immune to the hostile effects of weather, and can
predict it accurately 24 hours in advance 50% of
the time with an action. The elements also
whisper to you of any threats to them, such as
extensive drilling efforts, an upcoming wildfire in a
dry area, or a coming storm in around 24 hours
before they take place. You can also sense any
weather-changing spells when they are being
cast within 5 miles of your location, and can
roughly identify whether the caster is a friend or
foe to the elements or shamans.
Channel Elements. Wrath. At 2nd level, you can
use your Channel Divinity to wield the power of
the elements with unchecked ferocity. When you
roll for any type of damage that is either cold,
electricity, fire, or thunder, you can use a Channel
Divinity attempt to deal maximum damage
instead.
Bonded Elemental. Starting at 8th level, you
may conjure an elemental and render its duration
permanent. If the elemental dies, you can perform
the ritual again to summon another. This
elemental does not require concentration to
maintain, but acts as normal as per the Conjure
Elemental spell, with a maximum spell level
rendered permanent equal to one-half the
maximum spell level of Conjure Elemental you
can cast.
Elemental Storm. When you reach level 17, you
gain the ability to summon a thunderstorm,
snowstorm, or firestorm at your location. The
earth is blanketed by a 5-mile radius centered on
you for one hour. This otherwise acts as control
weather, and takes 10 minutes to cast as normal.
However, so long as the elemental storm is
active, you may also use an action to cause a 10-
foot wide cylinder of elemental wrath that deals
10d6 damage (thunder, electricity, cold, or fire,
depending on the storm type). The range of this
ability is as far as you can see within the radius,
and the affected creatures are entitled an Agility
saving throw to half damage.

Enhancement
The enhancement art focuses on empowering the shaman’s ability to command the elements to harm their
enemies, and gains increased proficiency in melee combat.
Enhancement Art Spells
1st Stasis Trap, Elemental Shock
3rd Animal Messenger (takes the form of an animal spirit), See Invisibility
5th Revivify, Bloodlust
7th Death Ward, Locate Creature
9th Reincarnate, Prayer of Healing
Bonus Proficiencies. At 1st level, you gain
proficiency with martial weapons. Also, when you
engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your
ability modifier to the damage of the second
attack.
Elemental Command. Also at 1st level, you gain
increased proficiency and command over the
elements. You may perform any of the following
abilities a number of times equal to your Spirit
modifier. All such uses are restored after a rest.
Uses of different commands count against the
overall maximum.
● Command the Storm. When a creature
within 5 feet of you that you can see hits
you with an attack, you can use your
reaction to cause the creature to make an
Agility saving throw. The creature takes
2d8 lightning or thunder damage (your
choice) on a failed saving throw, and half
as much damage on a successful one.
● Command the Earth. You may send a
tremor through the earth as a bonus
action, unbalancing your enemies. In a 30-
foot-sphere centered on you, you may
send a shockwave, dealing 2d6 + your
Spirit modifier in bludgeoning damage,
with an Agility saving throw to half
damage. You may instead shape this as a
15-foot-long cone, or a 30-foot-long line. If
you are also a Tauren, you may add the
number of times you may use War Stomp
to the total number of times you may use
this ability.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

● Command the Flame. You add the

Firebolt cantrip and fireball spell to your Flurry. Starting at 8th level, when you take an
list of spells. You may also cast firebolt as action to attack, you can attack twice instead of
a bonus action. once.

Channel Elements. Elemental Strike. At 2nd
level, when you deal damage with a melee
weapon to a target, you may use your bonus
action to cast a damaging cantrip on the target as
a bonus action. If you successfully affect the
target with both the spell and the melee attack,
you may push the creature up to 10 feet away, so
long as it is not larger than Large. If the cantrip
pushes the enemy, the forced movement does
not stack.
Spirit Wolves. Starting at 17th level, you can
summon two spirit dire wolves as an action, which
take their turns immediately after yours, and
dissipate after 1 minute and do not require
concentration. During this time if they are within
10 feet of you, your movement speed increases
to match their own. After using this feature, you
must finish a long rest before you can use it
again.

Restoration
The restoration art focuses on empowering the shaman’s ability to heal their allies and empower their
totems.
Restoration Art Spells
1st Riptide, Healing Ward
3rd Animal Messenger (takes the form of an animal spirit), Totemic Recall
5th Revivify, Healing Stream
7th Death Ward, Spirit Link Totem
9th Healing Stream Totem, Tranquility (Healing Rain)

Ancestral Blessing. At 1st level, whenever you heal a creature, you add your Spirit modifier to the total
amount of healing given.

Elusive Totems. Also at 1st level, you may move your totems up to half your own speed as a reaction, not
as a bonus action. This cannot interrupt an attack, but gives the totem a bonus to AC equal to your Spirit
modifier versus an attack. You also increase their hit points by your level (to a total of three times your
level). Totems also gain the benefit of evasion when using your Agility saving throw bonus.

Channel Elements. Life-Link. Starting at 2nd level, you may use an action to replicate the effects of a
Spirit Link spell (even if you normally cannot cast it), though whenever a creature is healed, the healing is
also distributed as well. This is a concentration effect that may be used at the same time as an existing
Spirit Link spell, or can manifest independently.

Purge. At 8th level, when you touch any creature, you replicate the effects of Dispel Magic. This may be
used once per day per point of Spirit modifier (minimum 1). To unwilling targets, this must be a melee spell
attack.
Also, whenever you dispel any number of magical effects, the target’s speed is reduced by 10 feet for until
the beginning of their turn in the next round.

Totem Mastery. Starting at 17th level, you may activate two totems with the same reaction, and may use
Purge at a range of 30 feet. You may also include totems in the Spirit Link spell or effect, despite them
being objects and not creatures.

Tinker (TNK)
Tinkers among the smartest and most creative of the adventurers setting out to explore and conquer
Azeroth. As a creator of incredible inventions from steam saws to siege engines, your devices allow them
to overcome nearly any situation — and if you don’t have the device they need, you just might be able to
design and create a new one on the spot.
Tinkers have a reputation for being dangerous companions before specializing, born mainly of reckless
goblins experimenting with explosives, or using gadgets made and owned by others. However, the true
heart of the tinker profession can be found in the steady craftsmanship of the dwarves and the wild-eyed

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

curiosity of the gnomes. As tinkers begin to spread to all the races of Azeroth, the idea of the “typical tinker”
may continue to change, but inventiveness and intelligence will always be an important part.

Engineering
You are proficient with the Engineering skill. If you are already proficient, you gain expertise to your checks.
Creating devices requires blueprints or discovery by cobbling.

Packrat
For the purposes of calculating encumbrance, you are counted as a large creature.

Cobble
Also starting at 1st level, you may create a 1-use firearm, gadget, or bomb with a 3-turn action. You may
petition the GM on what spell effect the gadget replicates, and the GM decides the most fitting gadget. You
can expend a number of Engineering Points equal to your maximum -1 points (1 point at 1st level). You
must spend the normal cost of floating materials to create this device, and the device disintegrates after a
single use (whether it be successful or not).

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

There is a 5% chance that the tinker memorize the blueprint for the cobbled device for one day (usually
long enough to write down the formula). This can be used once before a long rest, then an additional time
per day per 4 levels.

Knack for It
Starting at 2nd level, you can use your bonus action to make an Agility (Sleight of Hand) check, use your
thieves’ tools to disarm a trap or open a lock, or take the Use Object (any technological device) action. This
does not allow you to activate two gadgets at any given round.

Tech Know-How
Also starting at 2nd level, you may reduce the total cost and crafting time of engineered devices by 25%.

Tinker Path
At 3rd level, you choose a path that you emulate in the exercise of your tinker abilities: Bomber who
focuses on creating explosives, the Gunner who focuses on creating and shooting with firearms, and
Gadgeteer who focuses on creating wondrous gadgets, all detailed at the end of the class description.
Your path choice grants you features at 3rd level and then again at 6th, 10th, and 14th levels.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of
your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase
an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Superfunction
Starting at 5th level, whenever you use a device, there is a chance it performs unexpectedly well. The
chance for a superfunction is equal to the chance for a malfunction, with the determining dice result range
equal to the malfunction range (for instance, an explosive that malfunctions on a 1-3 can superfunction on a
18-20).
When a device superfunctions, it does not roll for a malfunction for the duration of the effect (see below,
affected by energy source).

● Mechanical/Electricity/Necromancy/Elemental: When the device superfunctions, the next 1d4 uses

consume no charges (but do consume bullets if possible). This does not apply if the device has one
use only.
● Steam/Combustion: When the device superfunctions, it either gains a 25% increase in movement
speed (if a construct or vehicle), or deals maximum damage (no need to roll) with any damage rolls
it makes (if an explosive, firearm, or damaging gadget). If the device neither moves or deals
damage, it negates the next malfunction it recieves for one minute instead.

Coolness under Fire

Starting at 7th level, you may take 10 on any attack roll or skill check. This can be done a number of times
equal to your proficiency bonus, and may be replenished with a long rest. The take-ten on attack rolls can
only be performed on an engineered device.

Scavenge
Starting at 10th level, when you gather raw materials for use with engineering, you gain triple the total value
in silver.

Reliability
Starting at 11th level, you lower the malfunction rate of all devices you use by one point per half your
Proficiency bonus (minimum 1).

Evasion
Also starting at 11th level, you can nimbly dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as a red
dragon’s fiery breath or an ice storm spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make an
Agility saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving
throw, and only half damage if you fail. If you make a saving throw versus an effect made by you, you can
either take half damage automatically or make a saving throw. If you choose to make a saving throw, you
take no damage on a successful save, but take normal (full) damage on a failed save.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Improved Cobble
Starting at 13th level, you may use a cobbled device twice before it disintegrates. The chance you can
discover a new blueprint increases to 10% per cobble attempt. The cobbled device also costs 15% less
than normal (this stacks with tech know-how and improved tech know-how).

Improved Tech Know-How

Starting at 15th level, you decrease the total cost of engineering devices by a further 15% (for a total of
25% less cost), and the time by 25% (for a total of 50% less time).

Quick Tech
Also starting at 15th level, you may alter the invested properties of any device you handle (even those not
used by you). This takes 3 turns of handling the device.
For example, this allows you to increase the damage or range of a firearm, reduce the hit dice of a
construct or vehicle (negatively only), or triple the malfunction rate of any device you handle.

Shutdown
Starting at 17th level, you may expend a use of Coolness under Fire to re-roll a malfunction or inactive
check result, or force the malfunction rate of any device within 30 feet of you to increase to by 5 points. This
penalty remains for one hour.

Personal Expertise
Starting at 18th level, whenever you activate a device you created and are using, you lower the malfunction
rate by two points (minimum 1 malfunction rating).

Engineering Mastery
Starting at 20th level, you may identify the weaknesses and command triggers for any device you see, and
can operate and recreate it from memory, even if you don’t have the blueprints, and you gain resistance to
all effects stemming from your own devices (such as firearm shots, explosions, etc.).

Tinker Path
An Azerothian tinker may choose one of the three below paths.

Bomber
A bomber is a tinker who focuses on bombs, mines, and rockets the utility of such explosive weaponry, and
often also makes use of mortars, rocket launchers, and mine launchers to control the terrain and deal
massive damage to their enemies. Bombers are also known as grenadiers.

Expanded Effect. Starting when you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you increase the base range of
your thrown bombs, mines, and rockets by 15 feet.

Blasting Effect [Strike]. Starting at 6th level, you may deal two additional dice of damage with any
explosive effect in an explosive area of effect. This is a [Strike] effect that can target only one creature
within the blast.

Quick Bomber. Starting at 10th level, you may use a rocket, bomb, or mine as a reaction instead of an
action. This may be used one time per proficiency bonus. These uses replenish after a rest.

Precise Effects. Starting at 14th level, whenever you use a rocket, mine, or bomb, you may exclude a
number of 5-foot squares (creatures included) from its effects equal to 1 + your Intelligence modifier.

Gunner
Also known as a gunsmith or shooter, a gunner tinker is not only a practiced gunsmith, but is also an
excellent marksman.

Quick Reload. Starting when you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you may use a bonus action to reload
a firearm.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Special Bullets. Starting at 6th level, you gain the spellcasting capabilities of a hunter whose level is equal
to your own (based on Intelligence, not Spirit). You may only cast Strike and Shot spells, however. These
effects are considered extraordinary and not spell-based, which means they ignore spell resistances and
may be used without being disrupted by anti-magic.

Point-Blank Shot. Starting at 10th level, you do not take disadvantage to your ranged attack roll while
being within 5 feet of a hostile creature. If using a firearm while adjacent to an enemy, you have advantage
to the attack roll.

Cartridge Improvement. Starting at 14th level, you may count your Engineering Point investment as if it
were four points higher for the purposes of calculating cartridge capacity for firearms you create.

Gadgeteer
Also known as a general tinkerers, Mecha-users, and drivers, gadgeteers replicate many effects through
their gadgets, and are very versatile.

Quick Cooldown. Starting when you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you reduce the cooldown of your
gadgets and activation of your constructs and Mecha are 2d4 rounds instead of a minute. If the gadget is
also a quick-use gadget, its cooldown is one full round instead.

Extensive Designing. Starting at 6th level, you may increase the spell levels replicated by your gadgets to
becoming 1 spell level per Engineering Point invested (maximum 6th level). You may also command
gadgets from within a vehicle or Mecha.

Efficient Engineering. Starting at 10th level, your devices do not lose charges when they are harmed, and
all your devices (Except bombs and firearms) gain 1 additional fuel or energy for every point invested.

Protective Shell. Starting at 14th level, whenever you are wearing a gadget harness, or are within a
vehicle or Mecha, you have resistance to all damage. This applies after sharing damage with the vehicle or
mecha (possibly taking only 25% of all damage), but this ability is inactive if you are no longer protected,
such if the harness itself is destroyed.

Warlock (WKR)
Warlocks are arcane spellcasters who study dark arts and magics associated with demons and the Burning
Legion. Due to this, they gain a very deeply tainted reputation due to their tendencies to traffic and deal
with demons. Hiding in cellars and secret covens, warlocks are known for making secret pacts for
permanent demonic companions that grow steadily in power so long as the warlock does.
Warlocks are common in both the Alliance and Horde, though in most cases they serve the Burning Legion
while disguising their true loyalties.
Special: Any mage or shaman may convert each level it has to a warlock by making a pact with a demon
(typically as consequence of corruption or summoning). This typically corrupts them, and makes returning
to their previous class difficult if not impossible. Levels are exchanged on a 1:1 basis.
CREATING A WARLOCK HIT POINTS
Hit Dice: 1d6 per warlock level
QUICK BUILD Hit Points at 1st Level: 6 + your Stamina
You can make a warlock quickly by following modifier

Demonic Studies
Starting at 1st level, Warlocks may speak Eredun, and do not need to make saving throws versus its
corruptive influence. However, they are (due to demonic promises) often more likely than others to seek out
pacts willingly. The warlock is also initiated into a warlock circle. You may choose a demonic study, which
describes the way you take to power. You can choose Affliction, the path of the withering magical casters,
Demonology, who focus on their demonic allies and improving them, or Destruction, who summons only the
Hellfire of Hell and no more. Your choice grants you features when you choose it at 1st level and again at
6th, 14th, and 18th level.

Demonic Invocation
You have learned to regain some of your mana by invoking fel mana. With a 3-turn action, you can regain
mana equal to 4 + your Warlock level. When used, you do not regenerate mana by rest or time for the next
four hours. Unlike most mana-restoring abilities, you can use this after restoring mana from a different
source.

Spellcasting
As a trafficker in demonic forces, you have a grimoire containing spells that show the first glimmerings of
your true power. You cast spells from the Sorcerer spell list in the PHB and add all its spells to your spell
list, and add all Warlock spells in this document to your spell list as well.

Cantrips
At 1st level, you know three cantrips of your choice from the warlock spell list. You learn additional warlock
cantrips of your choice at higher levels, equal to half your warlock level + 2 (maximum 6).

Conjuring and Binding

A warlock can conjure and bind elementals, fiends, and undead.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Preparing and Casting Spells

Each warlock level provides you with 1 caster level in the warlock class. You follow the normal progression
to unlock spell levels (see the table under the Mana section).
You prepare the list of warlock spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the warlock spell list.
Preparing a new list of warlock spells requires time spent in studying your grimoire: at least 1 minute per
spell level for each spell on your list.

Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your warlock spells, since you strengthen your magic by
summoning and tapping into extraplanar beings.
You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your
Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a warlock spell you cast and when making an
attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Spellbook – Grimoire
At 1st level, your grimoire contains six 1st-level warlock spells of your choice. When you level up, you gain
2 additional warlock spells of your choice. You may also acquire new spells by research, tutelage, or from
the spellbooks and scrolls of spellcasters who have spells you can cast.
Your grimoire is effectively your spellbook, and you may add spells by scribing in new spells or your
insights regarding the planes and the powers you serve.

Spellcasting Focus
You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your warlock spells.

Learning Spells of 1st Level and Higher

On your adventures, you might find other spells that you can add to your grimoire. You do not gain spells
by default, and typically scribe spells from scrolls into your own grimoire, or purchase (or steal) the
grimoires of others, or learn spells directly from demons. A demon can only teach a spell of a spell level
equal to ½ its CR + 1 through one week of tuition. This costs the same as to scribe a spell into a grimoire.

Soul Shards
At 2nd level, you tap into a deep and mysterious magic of souls. This wellspring is represented by soul
shards, which allow you to weaken your enemies or strengthen your own spells.

Soul Shards
By default, you have 2 soul shards, and cannot have more shards than your Warlock level. They fade at the
end of one hour or after a short rest.
You gain one soul shards by reducing living creatures to 0 hit points or less with your spells or melee
attacks, or if any creature is killed by one of your demon summons. You cannot gain more than half your
maximum number of soul shards at any given hour.

● Cabal Casting: Warlocks are known for being cooperative casters, unlike magi and wizards. A cabal
of warlocks may gather into casting a ritual or summoning spell. If each of them contribute one soul
shard per spell level, the spell is heightened by one spell level (counted as if it were cast from a
spell higher by one level). This requires at least four warlocks. A cabal cannot also quicken such a
summon.

● Enhanced Conjuring: You may consume one soul shard per spell level, and quicken any Conjure
spell of a casting time of 1 minute to cost only an 1 action (though you cannot move for one round
after casting).
You may also spend 1 soul shard to concentrate on any conjure spell, so you may concentrate on
another spell. You must still roll Concentration checks when hit (roll once per spell every time you
suffer damage).

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

● Soul Magic: With a bonus action, you can force a living creature or an undead to take disadvantage
against a saving throw of one of your spells, or can gain advantage to your own attack rolls to such
targets. This functions up to 5th level spells, and costs one soul shard per spell level.

Fiendish Alliance
You can always prepare the Conjure Fiend spell, even without your spellbook. When a fiend you
summoned is reduced to 0 hit points, you may transfer to them your own hit points as a reaction. You may
only transfer enough hit points to leave them at 1 hit point. This requires that you and the fiend be within 60
feet of one another.
You may have one Conjure Fiend spell active at any time. The fiend is treated as a companion that
accompanies you on your adventures, advises you in the ways of demonology, and teaches you magical
spells. A fiendish ally usually only grants spells once you complete tasks set by it (the fiend is controlled by
the DM). This ability otherwise works as the Beastmaster Hunter’s Hunter’s Companion ability. The fiend
controlled by this ability is not treated as if you are concentrating on it.
When you take the Attack action, you can forgo one of your own attacks to allow your conjured fiend to
make one attack of its own.
Warlocks usually use this ability to summon imps (3rd level), Voidwalkers (5th level), Fel Hounds (8th
level), Succubi (13th level), and Felguards (17th level).

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of
your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase
an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Soul Vault
When you reach 20th level, you may gain two soul shards instead of one per every enemy reduced to 0 hit
points as a result of your spells, and may restore your soul shard pool to full at least once at any given
hour.
Whenever a creature conjured by you reduces a creature to 0 or below hit points, you also gain one soul
shard as if you slew them personally. This must be done within 90 feet of you.

Warlock Studies
An Azerothian warlock may choose one of the three below archetypes.
Affliction
An affliction warlock focuses on greater use of debilitation spells, and slowly corrupts their enemies.

Haunt. Starting at 1st level, you gain the Mystic Blast feat, which deals 1d4 Fel damage per every
accessed spell level (see the feat for description).
When casting a debilitate spell, you may use a single soul shard to also use your Haunt ability against the
same target without an action. This still requires a ranged spell attack, but the range of the ability becomes
equal to the range of the debilitate spell.

Infestation. Also starting at 1st level, you may use a soul shard to inflict another effect of a debilitating spell
on a target in the same round. This does not require an action, and does not consume a use of the
debilitate effect. This can only trigger against one given creature per long rest, however.

Soul Swap. Starting at 6th level, you may alter the target of a debilitate spell effect as a bonus action,
targeting any eligible target within a range equal to the spell’s original range. The spell’s effects take place
at the new target’s turn as usual.

Seeds of Corruption. Starting at 14th level, if you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with a damaging
debilitate or single-target channel spell effect, you may deal the damage again in a 30-foot burst.

Corruptive Influence. Starting at 18th level, if any target of a debilitate spell or single-target channeling
spell effect you cast dies, you may alter the target without dispelling the effect. Seed of Corruption still
triggers as normal.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Demonology
A demonology warlock focuses on greater use of fiendish summoning spells, and willingly corrupts
themselves for greater power, soon creating their own demonic residence.

Blood Pact. Starting at 1st level, all demons summoned or bonded to you gain a bonus to their maximum
hit points equal to double your level. You may also add your proficiency bonus to all your demonic allies
attack rolls and saving throws.

Demonic Echoes. Also starting at 1st level, you may count demons as humanoids for all humanoid-
specific spells by using a soul shard. You may at any time grant your hit points to them as a reaction on
their round, or a bonus action on your round. You may also drain their hit points (at a 2:1 ratio), though you
can only benefit from their hit points once every long rest.

Dark Bond. Starting at 6th level, you can concentrate on two conjure fiend spells at any given time.

Dark Secrets. Starting at 14th level, you gain advantage to all saves versus spells, except those who deal
Holy damage, and gain immunity to one basic elemental damage type (Chosen between acid. cold,
electricity, and fire). You may also use a soul shard and a reaction to grant one demonic ally advantage to
its first attack during a round, or impose disadvantage to the attacker targeting it.

Demon-Soul. Starting at 18th level, whenever you summon a demonic creature by a spell or use your
demonic alliance ability to summon a fiend (as per the Conjure Fiend spell), you may summon another
fiend of the same or lower level (these are counted as if concentrating on the same spell). Thus you may
summon a succubus and a felguard, or an imp and a felhound, or two succubi or felguards.
When you are killed, your spirit is taken to an demiplane (see the spell) that is owned by you, where you
return to life in the matter of 1d10 days, nurtured by any demonic allies you have employed, enslaved, or
befriended. While in your demiplane, you may have all your demonic allies active at the same time.

Destruction
A destruction warlock is a master of chaos, calling down fires to burn and demolish their foes.

Chaos Magic. Starting at 1st level, any fire spell you use that deals damage deals an additional 1d6 points
of fel damage. Any fel spell that deals damage deals an additional 1d6 points of fire damage. Spells that
deal both fire and fel damage gain an additional 1d10 damage from either types (your choice). If you use a
soul shard as a bonus action while casting an eligible spell, you may increase the number of chaos magic
dice to be equal to the spell level.

Havoc. Also at 1st level, you may target two creatures with a single-targeting damaging spell from your
class list that does not have a range of touch or self. This only functions if the two targets are within 30 ft. of
one another, and this costs a soul shard. You may also use this with single-target channeling spells that
deal damage (such as drain life).

Searing Magics. Starting at 6th level, you may also target a creature with an action to make it more
susceptible to your fire and fel magical damage. If the target is immune to fire, it becomes resistant to the
damage. If it is resistant, it loses the resistance. If it has no resistance, it becomes vulnerable. If it was
previously vulnerable, it takes triple damage. The benefits of this ability may be used once per short or long
rest.

Incinerate. Whenever you deal fire damage to an enemy with a spell (though the spell or through your
chaos magic ability), you may use a soul shard to perform one of the three below tasks. This triggers once
per round.
● Set the target (or object) on fire, dealing 1d6 until the flame is extinguished. While set on fire, a
creature is considered poisoned, taking disadvantage to attack rolls and ability checks.
● Cast as a bonus action any debilitate spell you have prepared.
● If the target is reduced to 0 hit points, you can deal 6d6 damage in a 30-foot burst centered on the
target.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Soul Burner. Starting at 18th level, you may always count your fire and fel spells as if they have double
range. If the spell has an area of effect, you may double the area of effect. When you incinerate a target
(see Incinerate), and have no soul shards, you regain one soul shard.

Warrior (WAR)
For as long as war has raged, heroes from every race have aimed to master the art of battle. Warriors
combine strength, leadership, and a vast knowledge of arms and armor to wreak havoc in glorious combat.
Some protect from the front lines with shields, locking down enemies while allies support the warrior from
behind with spell and bow. Others forgo the shield and unleash their rage at the closest threat with a variety
of deadly weapons.
Warriors are common in both the Horde and the Alliance. High elf swordmasters and spellbreakers, human
knights and footmen, orc grunts and raiders, and troll ambushers and warlords are but racial reflections to
the universal art of war.

CREATING A WARRIOR

QUICK BUILD

Fighting Style
You adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can’t
take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

Archery
You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with ranged weapons.

Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.

Dueling
When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to
damage rolls with that weapon.

Great Weapon Fighting

When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack you make with a melee weapon that you are wielding
with two hands, you can reroll the die and must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. The
weapon must have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain this benefit.

Protection
When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your
reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll. You must be wielding a shield.

Two-Weapon Fighting
When you engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your ability modifier to the damage of the second
attack.

Second Wind
You have a limited well of stamina that you can draw on to protect yourself from harm. On your turn, you
can use a bonus action to regain hit points equal to 1d10 + your warrior level. Once you use this feature,
you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Action Surge
Starting at 2nd level, you can push yourself beyond your normal limits for a moment. On your turn, you can
take one additional action on top of your regular action and a possible bonus action. Once you use this
feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again. Starting at 17th level, you can use
it twice before a rest, but only once on the same turn.

Shout
Starting at 2nd level, the warrior can rally or empower their allies or demoralize or harass their enemies by
using their Shout ability. A shout costs a bonus action to start and maintain every round. The Stamina
saving throw DCs for Shouts and Shout abilities are equal to 8 + proficiency bonus + Stamina modifier.
These are a Thunder effects that do not function in silent areas. Starting at the following levels, a Warrior
gains a shout effect. If a shout is not maintained, it fades at the beginning of the warrior’s next turn. After
using a shout, the warrior cannot use it again until they rest. Shouts are concentration effects, and require
the warrior pass a Stamina saving throw to maintain it if they are damaged (DC 10 or half damage taken),
or else lose the benefits of the shout.

Battle Starting 2nd level, all hostile suffer additional damage equal to your proficiency bonus. This acts
exactly as the Death Knight’s Abandonment Aura ability.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Taunt Starting at 6th level, you may challenge one enemy to a fair duel. The enemy must make a Spirit
saving throw or be affected by the Compelled Duel spell until the end of your next turn. If the creature
moves away more than 60 feet or cannot hear you, the effect ends for it, and it cannot be targeted again for
24 hours.

Intimidate Starting at 10th level, all hostile enemies must make a Spirit saving throw or be frightened until
the end of your next turn. Creatures can roll another saving throw at the end of every one of their turns. If
the creature moves away more than 60 feet or cannot hear you, the effect ends for it, and it cannot be
targeted again for 24 hours.

Rally Starting at 14th level, all allied creatures are invigorated. They gain an increase their maximum hit
points by half your level and can spend a single hit dice to heal themselves. The bonus to maximum hit
points remains for one hour. A creature cannot benefit from this more than once in any given 24 hours. If
the creature was already at maximum hit points, it’s current hit points increase to equal its maximum hit
points.

Howl Starting at 18th level, all hostile creatures are treated as if slowed (as the slow spell) for one round if
they fail a Spirit saving throw. Creatures can roll another saving throw at the end of every one of their turns.
If said creature move away more than 60 feet or cannot hear you, the effect ends for it, and it cannot be
targeted again for 24 hours. This is a fear effect.

Warrior Archetype
At 3rd level, you choose an archetype that you strive to emulate in your combat styles and techniques.
Choose between the Arms Warrior, a champion in using great-weapons, the Fury Warrior, who focuses on
bleeding his enemies and debilitating them tactically, or the Protection Warrior who focuses on defense
while reflecting physical damage. All are detailed at the end of the class description. The archetype you
choose grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 10th, 15th, and 18th level.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 6th, 8th, 12th, 14th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one
ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you
can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your
turn. The number of attacks increases to three when you reach 11th level in this class and to four when you
reach 20th level in this class.

Warrior’s Talent
Starting at 9th level, you gain one of the following talents, representing your preferred tactics and
adaptability at the field of battle. Choose from between Indomitable, Heroic Throw, Heroic Leap,
Shockwave, Thunderclap, and Wind Walk. These abilities may be used once when gained before a long
rest, but gain another use at levels 13 and 17, or you may (instead of upgrading the uses) choose another
ability. All abilities have DCs of 8 + Proficiency + Strength if they allow a saving throw.
● Heroic Leap You may make a heroic leap, jumping up to twice your normal distance, and making an
attack roll at the end. A successful attack roll deals damage equal to your normal weapon damage,
except that damage is dealt as a burst of 5 feet on the area you hit, with an Agility saving throw to
half. The ground is also turned into difficult terrain (such as rubble) when applicable.
● Heroic Throw You may enhance your thrown or melee weapons for one minute. While enhanced,
you may perform melee attacks at a range of 60 feet by throwing your weapon, or use thrown
weapons and increase their range by 60 feet. The weapon returns at your turn or drops the target
prone (Agility negates), allowing you to attack multiple times.
● Indomitable You can reroll a saving throw that you fail. If you do so, you must use the new roll, even
if it is lower than the initial roll.
● Shockwave You may use your action to emit a shockwave from your weapon by slamming it into the
ground. This deals your melee weapon attack damage in a 5-foot thick line 60 feet long, dealing

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

your weapon damage to all creatures in the area of effect, plus 2d6 bludgeoning damage. Targets in
this line may perform an Agility saving throw to half damage.
● Thunderclap You may use your action to emit a shockwave from your weapon by slamming it into
the ground. This acts as Shockwave spell, but the area of effect is a 10-foot burst centered on you,
and the extra 2d6 damage is Thunder damage. Targets hit also reduce their speed by 10 feet,
unless they succeeded on the Agility saving throw to half damage. This reduction to speed remains
for one minute.
● Wind Walk You may use your action to wind-walk, rendering yourself invisible as per the spell, and
granting yourself +10 to your speed. While in this stance, you must continue moving or else this
effect dissipates. Your first attack while performing Wind Walk adds +2d8 damage, and breaks the
invisibility as normal. This is a supernatural ability.

Warrior Archetypes
The warrior can choose from one of the below archetypes.
Arms
Arms warriors focus on wielding great weapons, and dealing great amounts of damage to both single
targets and multiple weak ones by cleaving.

Sweeping Strikes [Strike]. Starting at 3rd level, when you successfully attack and damage a creature, you
may use your bonus action to deal your Strength modifier in damage to any number of creatures 5 feet
away from it. This is a strike effect that costs a bonus action.

Bladestorm [Stance]. Starting at 7th level, you may go into a bladestorm with an action. While in this
stance, you must use your action and bonus action every round, dealing your weapon damage to all
creatures you wish within 5 feet of you, plus 5 damage from Sweeping Strikes. Affected targets are entitled
an Agility saving throw to half all damage. You have advantage against all movement-impairing effects
while in a bladestorm, and you do not provoke reactions from movement.
Your speed is halved in a bladestorm, but you may affect all creatures, even if you do not stop next to their
space. If you are unable to invest your action or move at a rate of half your speed or higher, this effect
ends. This can be used a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus before a rest.

Bloodthirst Strike [Strike]. Starting at 15th level, you may, after successfully damaging an enemy, you
gain hit points equal to double your Proficiency bonus. You may grant half the benefits to any ally within 30
feet. This is a strike effect that costs a bonus action.

Mortal Strike [Strike]. Starting at 10th level, you may severely wound a creature’s healing capabilities if
you successfully apply a mortal strike. If a creature is affected by a Mortal Strike, they take 50% less
healing from all sources for one minute. This is a strike effect that costs a bonus action. A creature cannot
be affected by this ability more than once in 24 hours.

Weapon Specialization. Starting at 18th level, you gain an additional effect depending on the type of
damage your weapon deals. This effect only triggers once per round, and only on a critical attack. All
effects that allow a save refer to the target’s Stamina saving throw opposed to your Strength, and cannot
target a creature more than once every 24 hours.
● Slashing. You may perform two strike effects with a single bonus action.
● Bludgeoning. The target is stunned for one round.
● Piercing. The target takes 2d6 extra damage.

Fury
Fury warriors equip themselves with two weapons, and slice their enemies to ribbons while shouting
vengeance.

Strike the Wound. Starting at 3rd level, whenever you hit the same enemy more than once in the same
round, you increase your critical chance by 1 point (from 20, to 19-20, etc.), to a maximum of 15-20. This
‘counter’ resets at the end of your round.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Overpower. Starting at 7th level, if you miss an attack roll, you may attack again, increasing your critical
range by two points. This is usable once per point of Stamina modifier. All uses can be regained after a
long rest. This can be used with strike effects.

Battle Commands. Starting at 10th level, you may shout or maintain a shout while attacking with your off-
hand weapon. The range of your shouts is reduced to 15 feet if you do this.

Hellscream. Starting at 14th level, all hostile creatures within range of your shouts take Thunder damage
equal to half your level whenever you shout or declare that you are maintaining a shout. They are entitled a
Stamina saving throw to half damage opposed by your own Stamina.

Bloody Ribbons. Starting at 18th level, you may make another attack whenever you critically hit an
enemy. If this hit is a critical hit, you may continue to hit so long as you are critically hitting the opponent.

Protection
Protection warriors are vanguards of an army, decking themselves with heavy armors and a reliable shield,
deflecting and guarding any attacks that may affect their allies.

Block and Tackle. Starting at 3rd level, you may use a reaction to block an attack that targets you,
reducing the damage by 1d12 + Stamina modifier. This requires a shield. If this reduces the damage to
under 0, you may use the same reaction to attack the target with an opportunity attack. This is usable once
per point of Stamina modifier. All uses can be regained after a rest.

Sundering Strike [Strike]. Starting at 7th level, you may sunder an enemy’s armor, reducing their AC by a
value equal to your Proficiency bonus (but never below that of their AC if unarmored). This effect remains
until the armor is tended to, and cannot target the same target twice in 24 hours. This is a strike effect that
costs a bonus action.

Vigilance. Starting at 10th level, you add an additional +1d12 to your ability to block damage. Whenever
you perform an opportunity attack derived from your block talent, you perform one of the following abilities.

● Destructive Counter. Your opportunity attack deals an additional 1d12 damage.

● Disarming Counter. Your opportunity attack drops the enemy’s weapon. If they reach for it while
threatened by you, you get another attack of opportunity.
● Pushing Counter. Your opportunity attack pushes the enemy 5 feet away.

Vanguard. Starting at 15th level, whenever you are below half your hit points, you gain 1d12 + Stamina
temporary hit points at the beginning of every round. These temporary hit points do not stack with
themselves.

Improved Second Wind. Starting at 18th level, you may use Second Wind three times before requiring
rest. Whenever you use it, you gain resistance to all types of damage for one round after use, and
advantage versus the first spell targeting you in the next minute.

Special and Racial Specializations

These are archetypes, domains, and specializations that have a special or racial restriction. These are rare,
but often are quite powerful.

Apothecary (Tinker)
Apothecaries are students, researchers, and scientists of the Royal Apothecary Society of Undercity. They
are tireless in studying the effects of poisons and plagu
es on both the living and the undead, and are also one of the strongest scientific forces in Azeroth.
Apothecaries are support soldiers who brew and concoct potions and poultices to support (or create)
soldiers on the field. Apothecaries also work tirelessly to replicate the work of the Scourge's necromancers,
creating abomination constructs, meatwagon vehicles, and (for the intrepid forsaken adventurer) skull-
shaped grenades and grim-looking firearms.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Special. Apothecaries are usually undead tinkerers who focus on advanced and esoteric alchemy. A
forsaken tinkerer can study the path of the apothecary long before they formally enter the order (upon
gaining the archetype). They modify their below features:

Engineering. You can create undead as if they were normal constructs. Apothecaries usually create
abominations from corpses and specially-chosen victims (allowing you to make undead with the
engineering skill as if they were normal constructs). As a result of the focus on construct-building, however,
you lower your effective proficiency bonus when crafting firearms and explosives by 1 point.
You also gain proficiency with a poisoner's kit, and start out with two soul gems (CR 1) as fuel instead of
liquid phlogiston.

APOTHECARY SPECIALIZATION
Forsaken Alchemy. Starting when you gain this archetype, you gain proficiency with alchemy with two
casting sources: Priest and Mage, although you are restricted to the necromancy, enchantment, illusion,
and transmutation schools. Your effective caster level is equal to half your tinker level (or 1 at level 3),
reaching a maximum effective caster level of 10.
Apothecaries usually prepare their spells into potions and pour them (or throw them) on targets such as
corpses (for animate dead) and living beings (for death coil, false life, etc.). They typically prepare the
below spells at the following levels (although the list is not exclusive).

Level Preferred spells Spell level Caster Level

01-05 Animate Dead I, Death Coil I, Death Pact, Fade, Disguise Self 1 1-2
06-09 Blindness/Deafness Capture Essence, Corpse Explo, Unholy Frenzy 2 3-4
10-13 Feign Dead, Revivify, Plant Growth, Vamp Touch, Bestow Curse 3 5-6
14-17 Confusion, Drain Life, Dominate Beast, Polymorph, Blight 4 7-8
18-20 Contagion, Geas, Dominate Person, Modify Memory, Hold Person 5 9-10

You may also add the following spells to your effective spell list (despite them normally falling under
different schools): Death Ward, Darkness, Nondetection, Power Word: Fortitude, Protection from Poison,
Magic Weapon, Dispel Magic, and Speak With Dead.

Walking Biohazard. Starting at 6th level, taking advantage of your undead nature, you can secrete or
develop poisons and diseases in your body. You may declare development of a disease or poison 24 hours
before you can secrete it. After 24 hours have passed, you can conjure up doses of said poison or disease
per proficiency bonus. This can be done once in a 24 hour circle.
You cannot develop a disease or poison that would otherwise affect you in this way. The DC to resist the
poison or disease cannot exceed a value equal to 10 + half your class level.

Expert Poisoner. Starting at 10th level, whenever you deliver a poison, disease, or even a potion, you
increase the DC, damage, or duration of the effect increases by 2 points (or two rounds if possible). When
using a syringe, injecting a foe costs no action (although the attack must still be successful).

Weird Science. Starting at 14th level, whenever you create or summon undead or constructs via
engineering or Animate Undead or Animate Construct spells, you may design or cast the spells to run on a
mixture of soul-magic and electricity. All your constructs and undead gain Blindsight against living and
undead creatures, as well as constructs and devices that work off an electrical source.

Demon Hunter (Rogue)

Demon hunters are specialists in fighting demonic outsiders, and sacrifice both body and mind to gain alien
and terrifying powers.
Although most commonly found amongst the Night Elves (with the Night Elf Illidan Stormrage being the first
known Demon Hunter) and the Illidari, the abilities can be learned by many who fight demons, such as
secretive high elven organizations, human wizarding societies, or even draenei or orcish inquisitorial
orders. Demon hunters utilize warglaives, which are specially-altered short swords (see equipment below).

Special: The Demon Hunter class can be unlocked by a ritual of self-scarification and mana vampirism
against a demon. The character then may choose the Demon Hunter archetype of the Rogue Class, or
retrain their class into becoming a Rogue who can qualify to be a demon hunter. Warlocks who turn against
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

the Burning Legion may exchange their class on a 1:1 ratio, such as death knights or warlocks do with their
previous classes of paladin or mage and shaman (respectively).

Special: A draenei who takes on the mantle of demon hunter may alter their Gift of the Naaru ability,
casting the Mind Blast spell instead, as the draenei takes on the psychic powers of the Eredar in exchange
of the holy powers of the Naaru. This extremely uncommon sacrifice also takes its toll on the draenei’s
body, slowly morphing their appearance through extended exposure to fel magic to be more like the
Eredar.

DEMON HUNTER ROGUISH ARCHETYPE

Demon Spellcasting. Drawing on fel magics not unlike those practiced by warlocks, you can cast spells
that are normally cast by warlocks. You cast all spells drawn from the warlock spell list, but when casting
such spells, you must spend 1 additional point of mana.

Cantrips
At 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice from the Warlock spell list. You learn additional Warlock
cantrips of your choice at higher levels, equal to one-third your Demon Hunter level + 2 (maximum 4).

Preparing and Casting Spells

Each mage level provides you with ⅓ a caster level in the Warlock class (1 at 3rd level). You follow the
normal progression to unlock spell levels (see the table under the Mana section).
You prepare the list of Warlock spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Warlock spell list.
You can also change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest by consulting your spellbook.
You otherwise follow the warlock’s rules for spellbooks, conjuring, and binding, however, most demon
hunters inscribe their spells to their skin as tattoos rather than in grimoires, using expensive inks and
difficult techniques (see Chapter 6 for details on special spellbooks).

Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your Warlock spells, since your magic draws upon your attunement
to fel powers. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you
use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Warlock spell you cast and when
making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Spectral Sight. Also starting at 3rd level, you gain the supernatural ability to automatically detect demons
and celestials on sight so long as they are within 30 feet or closer. This is treated as the Detect Evil and
Good spell. After three rounds of observation, you can also detect if a creature has active mana (such as
by being a spellcaster or while subject to an active spell). Similarly, you know if there is a place or object
within 30 feet that has been magically consecrated or desecrated (see the Hallow spell).
This vision can penetrate most barriers, but is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin
sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt.

Special: This power comes at a cost--most colors are faded to the character. Although this does not mean
everything is in black or white, the character suffers disadvantage to any color-based Spirit (Perception)
check that does not also involve creatures detected by this ability (such as hiding in camouflage).
Special II: Alternatively, the character can opt to not gain this benefit and gain Darkvision 60 feet instead.

Dark Metamorphosis. Starting at 9th level, you may use a bonus action to metamorphosize into a
demonic creature. You may stay in this state 10 minutes, and gain the following benefits while
metamorphosized:
● You gain the benefit of Mage Armor, and add your level to your maximum hit points so long as you
are transformed. Your Strength becomes 18, or remains as it is (if higher than 18).
● You gain demonic wings, allowing you to glide so long as you are in the form. For every 10 feet of
distance you fall, you can move 30 feet in any direction. You can also instead take no fall damage
so long as you can exercise your wings. If you are restrained or otherwise encumbered, you cannot
make use of your wings.
● You may attack with your horns or claws as melee weapon attacks, dealing 1d6 piercing damage or
1d4 slashing damage respectively (plus your strength as normal), and fly at a speed of 30 ft. (you
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

can hover). Your melee weapons are treated as if they are +1 weapons. These are treated as light
natural weapons.
● While transformed, you are treated as a fiend for all spell-related variables, and add +1 to the DCs
of all your spells from the warlock spell list, although you can only cast warlock spells that modify or
target mana (such as mana burn or mana shield), as well as direct-damage spells that deal fel
damage (as orb of annihilation or shadow bolt).

The state can be left with a bonus action, and once it has been used, it cannot be used again for a short
rest.
You may also retain one of the below traits indefinitely, as your metamorphosis is more internal than
external.

● Claws: You may retain your claws (see above). You may draw back your claws at will to hide them
(does not cost an action).
● Wings: You may retain your wings.
● Horns: You may retain your horns (see above). You may not hide them.

Sorcerous Thirst. Starting at 13th level, whenever you perform mana vampirism (see Chapter 6) versus
demons to drain their mana, you gain double the normal mana.
You can also gain one use of their innate special abilities, usable only once, although this costs no mana.
The demon hunter cannot use this ability to cast a spell that has a spell level equal to or more than half his
Demon Hunter level.
After benefitting from a mana vampirism against a fiend, your weapons are always treated as magical
versus demons for 1 hour, as the residual fel energies are being used by you against the demons'
defenses.

For Example: Draining a Felhound allows the demon hunter to utilize their Mana Burn innate ability, or a
succubus’s Sleep or Modify Memory spell.

Dread Foe. Starting at 17th level, you may use a bonus action to vault, moving at half your total speed in a
way that does not provoke reactions. Whenever you do provoke reactions from movement, you can make
an attack of opportunity. The distance of a vault’s jump is treated as if the demon hunter was always under
the effects of the Jump spell.
Your weapons are also always treated as if magical when attacking demons.

Lightslayer (Rogue)
A shadow in the night, the lightslayer moves with the sound of a whisper to extinguish light wherever you
find it — specifically, you extinguish the followers of the Holy Light. The lightslayer embraces the teachings
of the Forgotten Shadow and develops personal power by slaying their hated foes.
A branch of the Cult of Forgotten Shadow, led by a former soldier, trained the first lightslayers to combat
Scarlet Crusade raids. Originally the cult envisioned lightslayers as dark knights who would ride into battle
against the agents of the Holy Light. To the cult’s dismay, the Crusade’s organized tactics ran roughshod
over the newly trained dark knights.
Another branch of the cult, this one led by a charismatic and pragmatic Forsaken named Ilius, liked the
concept of lightslayers but disagreed with their implementation. Ilius had been a human scout in life, but
before that he had made a living as a sneak thief and burglar. He recalled those skills now to train a few
faithful cultists and sent them on solitary missions against the Scarlet Crusade. These lightslayers proved
much more effective, and their use has spread to many branches of the Forgotten Shadow.
Once indoctrinated, a lightslayer receives missions to combat the Holy Light, particularly the Scarlet
Crusade (though Knights of the Silver Hand and ordinary priests and parishioners are also fair game).
These missions range from ambush to outright assassination.

Extinguisher. Beginning at 3rd level, have all divine casters who follow the light as favored enemies (as
the hunter class feature of the same name). This does not necessarily include all characters who follow or
believe in the light, but only those who channel its power. Your melee and ranged (but not spell) attacks
against them deal an extra 2 points of damage. You also have advantage on stealth checks in dim light or
darkness.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Sin Shield. Also starting at 3rd level, you have advantage versus all divine spells cast by your favored
enemies, and advantage to all checks to avoid being scried upon or identified by magic.

Elusive, Persistent Shadow. Starting at 9th level, you gain the ability to teleport yourself from your current
location to any spot within 250 feet once per day. This ability otherwise functions as the Dimension Door
spell. You gain another use of this ability at level 14, and another at level 19.

Dark Senses. Starting at level 15, you gain the ability to cast the Scrying spell twice per day. If the target is
a favored enemy, they take disadvantage versus saving throws versus the spell. You can also sense if a
favored enemy is casting a divine spell within 3 miles. If within 1 mile of them, you can spend an action to
force them to roll a Spirit saving throw (DC 8 + Intelligence + Proficiency bonus). If they fail, they are
stunned for 1 turn. A creature can be subjected to this effect once per 24 hours.

Mountain King (Warrior)

The mountain kings, or thanes as they are known in Khaz Modan, are the mightiest dwarven warriors under
the mountain. Wielding both enchanted warhammers and hand axes, these fierce fighters live to test
themselves against worthy opponents. Unconcerned with their race's preoccupation with mechanical
devices and mining precious minerals, Mountain Kings live only for battle. Dedicated to safeguarding the
Alliance which saved their kingdom during the Second War, the mountain Kings can be counted upon to
rally behind any banner that stands between freedom and the ever looming shadow of evil.
Mountain kings boast prodigious combat abilities. They are ferocious in melee combat, wielding the
traditional weapons of their race to decimate their foes. Their attacks leave opponents stunned and reeling.
While they do not focus their efforts on discovering the secrets of the titans, they have long known of a
powerful spark within every Ironforge dwarf - and mountain kings draw upon this spark and fan it into a
raging flame. They conjure magic hammers and axes to hurl at their targets, stunning and slowing them so
they can get close enough to use their real weapons. They transform themselves into silver-sheened
creatures of living stone, shrugging off all attacks and hacking through flesh and bone with frightening ease.
This archetype is restricted to dwarves and creatures who are of dwarvish descent.

Titanic Spark: Dwarven Avatar. Starting at 3rd level, you gain the ability to cast spells as a mage of an
effective caster level equal to half your Mountain King level (or 1 at level 3). You do require spellbooks,
however they appear in the form of inscriptions and engravings on your armor and weapons. You may cast
spells from the abjuration, evocation, and transmutation schools, although you may only choose lightning-
based spells when preparing evocation spells.
You may add and cast the Investiture of Stone spell as a 5th level spell instead of a 6th level spell, and you
do not need to concentrate on the effect. While under the spell's effects, you double the benefits from your
Stance of the Mountain feature (reduce damage by 6 before applying resistances, gain 4 reactions, and
push targets 20 feet), and its effects are never disrupted so long as you are conscious.

Slash and Smash. Also starting at at 3rd level, whenever you hit the same enemy more than once in the
same round with a slashing and a bludgeoning weapon, you increase your critical chance by 1 point (from
20, to 19-20, etc.), to a maximum of 15-20.

Stance of the Mountain. Starting at 7th level, you may enter a stance with a bonus action. So long as you
are in this stance, you reduce the physical damage you take by 3 points, and gain 2 extra reactions.
When executing a melee attack of opportunity while under the effects of this stance, you push the target 10
feet on a successful attack roll. If you move more than half your speed, the effects of this stance are
disrupted.

Bleed and Bash. Starting at 10th level, when you land a critical hit with a slashing weapon, you reduce the
target's speed to half for 1 hour or until the damage you dealt is fully healed. When you land a critical hit
with a bludgeoning weapon, you may make a Strength save and oppose your results with the target's
Strength or Agility saving throw. If your save result is higher, they are stunned for 1 round.

King and Wealth Under the Mountain. Starting at 15th level, you may spend three days studying the
defenses of a fortification, castle, or any type of defensive structure. At the end of the three days, you may
use your Stance of the Mountain without spending a bonus action, and you may move your full speed

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

without disrupting the stance. Also, when you cast the spell Stoneskin through your Titanic Spark
spellcasting feature, the cost of the material component (regardless of the target) is 25 gp instead of 100.

Shadow Hunter (Hunter)

Troll shadow hunters are masters of voodoo magic, and are the highest authority of the jungle trolls. Their
spirit powers both bless and curse, and they walk the line of dark and light in hope of saving the future of
their people. Their dark gods, the Loa, channel themselves through the shadow hunters when they use
their ceremonial rush'kah masks.
Like other practitioners of voodoo, shadow hunters deal with the darker aspects of the spirit world. Unlike
witch doctors and members of other professions associated with this ancient faith, shadow hunters claim to
develop a special bond with voodoo spirits called the Loa. Able to channel the essence of some of these
extremely potent beings - and often acting with their blessing - shadow hunters gain special abilities only
the Loa can grant. As they grow in experience, the shadow hunters' bond with the Loa strengthens and
their connection to these powerful voodoo spirits eventually gives them the ability to curse and heal at a
whim.
This archetype is restricted to worshipers of the Loa, which are overwhelmingly trolls.

Loa Spellcasting. Starting once gaining this archetype, you merge your spell list with that of the shaman.
You do not gain the increased spellcasting capabilities or access to higher spell levels, but you add all
shaman spells into your spell list (including totems, healing spells, and elemental spells), at the cost of all
[Shot] and [Strike] spells.
When casting a spell derived from the shaman spell list and not the hunter spell list, you spend 1 additional
mana point to cast the spell.
Your spellcasting otherwise follows the same rules as the shaman class, although your totems are your
masks.

Mask Magic. Starting from 3rd level, you can wear various masks can provide blessings. It costs a bonus
action to wear a mask, and each can be used once before a long rest.
● Legba Mask. This grants the exceptional aura of a Paladin's Concentration Aura. This aura remains
for one hour.
● Lukou Mask. This mask allows you to add your Spirit modifier to the final number of hit points
healed by your spells. This can be added to the final damage to undead cured by your spells. This
mask grants the benefit for one hour.
● Shango Mask. The storm mask allows you to add your Spirit modifier to the final number of damage
points dealt by your lightning spells. This mask grants the benefit for one hour.

Voodoo Ritualist. Starting from 7th level, you may multiple the casting time of your spells by three via a
magical (and often noisy) mask-dance to heighten it by one spell level. This increase does not stack with
itself.
If the spell cost an action, it costs 3 actions instead. If it costs a minute, it costs 3 minutes. If it cost an hour,
it costs 3 hours, etc.
When conducting a ritual, this ability instead allows the shadow hunter to add the heightened spell level to
the final spell level.

Advanced Mask Magic. Starting at 11th level, you can add new masks to your repertoire of spells.
● Bwonsamdi Mask. You gain the ability to perform a Crusader Strike as a paladin of your level, and
can use hunter or shaman spells. This ability remains for one hour.
● Ogoun Mask. You can cast the Polymorph spell as if you had it set, although the spell can only turn
hostile creatures into frogs. This ability remains for one hour.
● Dambala Mask. The second twin of the Ogoun mask, you can cast the Polymorph spell as if you
had it set, although the spell can only turn you into a snake. This ability remains for one hour.

Big Bad Voodoo. Starting on 15th level, you can wear the ultimate mask; the Unnamed Dark Mask, and
can spend three turns of invoking it to manifest the strongest voodoo magic possible.
At the end of the dance, a number of allies equal to your Spirit modifier within 30 feet gain immunity to
damage as per the spell Divine Shield (Caster level equal to your hunter level). This needs concentration
as the normal spell, and if you fail to maintain it, it fades from every target. Unlike the spell, you cannot
target yourself.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

You can channel this effect instead of merely concentrating, during which the shield regains 5 hit points per
round of channeling. If you cannot maintain line of sight to your ally, the effect fades from them.

Spell Breaker (Warrior)

Elven warriors trained to disrupt and contort magical energies, the Spell Breakers are a valuable addition to
the Alliance, and work well in concert with the High Elven magically-focused military.
Spell Breakers can cast a small amount of spells, and mostly prefer abjurations such as Shield and Dispel
Magic, and evocations such as Arcane Missile, and Mana Burn.
This warrior martial archetype is restricted to High Elves.

Spellcasting. When you reach 3rd level, you augment your martial prowess with the ability to cast spells.

Cantrips.
You learn two cantrips of your choice from the wizard spell list. You learn an additional mage cantrip of your
choice at 10th level.

Spells Prepared
Each spell breaker level provides you with 0.5 levels in a spellcasting class (or level 1 at 3rd level). You
follow the normal progression to unlock spell levels (see the table under the Mana section).
You prepare spells from the mage spell list, but only spells from the abjuration or evocation schools.
When you reach 7th, 8th, 14, and 20 level in this class, you can alter one existing spell to be a spell from
any other magic school.
Your spellcasting otherwise follows the same rules as the mage class with regards to spellbooks, conjuring
and binding, and other concerns.

Spellcasting Ability.
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your wizard spells, since you learn your spells through study and
memorization. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you
use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a wizard spell you cast and when
making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Spell Resistance. When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you gain the ability to be exceptionally
resistant to spells and spell-like abilities, gaining advantage versus all spells that allow for spell resistance.

If the spellbreaker succeeds in saving against a spell it is targeted with with the original saving throw and
the one granted by advantage, he may use a reaction to absorb its magic, regaining mana points equal to
the spell’s level.

Abjuring Knight. Starting at 7th level, you may cast the Dispel Magic spell with half normal mana cost
(minimum 1), and always have it prepared at your highest-level spell accessed.
You may also throw a two-bladed sword, treating it as a thrown weapon with a range of 10/30 feet. This
may deliver melee strikes at range, and the two-bladed sword returns after the attack roll is resolved, but
allowing for only one melee strike every round.

Feedback. At 10th level, whenever you dispel a magical effect from a creature, you destroy 1 point of
mana per spell level, dealing 2 Arcane damage as the Mana Burn spell. If you dispel a debilitating effect
from an ally, you may the mana-burning effect to any hostile creature within 30 feet of you.
You may also cast Dispel Magic (as per Abjuring Knight) as a strike effect (costing a bonus action after a
successful attack roll).

Steal Magic. At 15th level, you may transfer a dispelled magical effect to another eligible creature within 30
ft. as a free action. The new target is entitled a saving throw. This may be applied to beneficial and
debilitating effects, using your own spell save DC.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Control Summons. At 18th level, you may force a summoned creature to serve you and count you as an
ally instead of sending it back to where it came from when you successfully dispel the magics summoning
it. This does not count versus creatures that are not summoned by spells.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Chapter 4: Skills and Professions

To better facilitate and replicate the ability to craft, mine, and refine materials into weapons, there are a few
changes to the skill system, by including Gathering and Refining skills.

Discovery
Making new spells, alchemical formulae, and blueprints for engineering are all highly complicated tasks. It
takes 2 weeks to study a new spell, formula, or blueprint, and requires an amount of gold pieces dedicated
for research equal to 50 x spell level (if a spell or alchemical formula), or 75 x Engineering Points invested
(if a blueprint).
The GM may impose additional requirements, such as requiring an elemental crystal for a firethrower
(elemental engine) or a blueprint of a normal vehicle to make a similar design.

Gathering Skills
Any skill that reasonably allows for the identification, collection, and preservation of raw materials may be
used to gather raw materials. These raw materials have a value that may be declared after the check is
finished. Any resource-rich area may be considered a resource node that may be used to harvest raw
materials.

Gather Raw Materials

This use allows the user to gather materials over time. The user can gather up to eight hours, and must
have a long rest before continuing to gather. The results of a gathering raw materials effort is judged jointly
by the dungeon master and you, who decide upon what kind of general materials you acquired, judging by
the environment, resources, and skill used.

Value of Gathered Materials per hour of work = ½ Check results x Proficiency x ½ in silver pieces.
Multiply the result by 4 to have the yields of 8 hours. Every 50 silver piece of materials weighs 1 pound.

Gathered materials can be sold for half value, or be kept to use in crafting.
Examples of skills being used to gather are below.

Example Skill Ability Score Task Performed

Alchemy Intelligence Collects alchemical reagents, vials, formulae, etc.

Production Skills
Any skill that can create a product out of materials is classified as a production skill. The time it takes to
make a product and the raw materials it takes depends on the cost of the item and its complexity.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Most production skills require proficiency in the tools used (such as blacksmith’s tools), but some are given
to or restricted by race or class only (such as Engineering or Alchemy). Proficiency in a skill infers
proficiency with its tools.

Example Skill Ability Score Task Performed

Alchemy Intelligence Creates potions, elixirs, and concoctions
Blacksmithing Intelligence Creates weapons, armor, and metallic trinkets
Engineering Intelligence Creates constructs (golems and robots), gadgets, firearms, and bombs
Herbalism Spirit Can create minor potions from herbalism.
Infusion Intelligence Can create infusions and enchantment items.
Jewelcrafting Spirit Creates jewelry
Leatherworking Spirit Creates leather-based items and armors
Tailoring Spirit Creates cloth-based items (such as clothes, boots, and hats)

Note: System below is optional, and supersedes the crafting rule of 5 gp of progress per day on crafting.

Crafting Rules
Crafting takes four components:
1. Time roughly equivalent to the complexity of the end product.
2. Raw materials equal to one-third that of the end product.
3. Proficiency with the tools (or skill) relevant.
4. Success on the Crafting check.
At the end of the allotted crafting time, and if the check is successful, the user crafts the item in question.

Item Crafting Time DC

Very simple item (stick) 10 minutes 5
Simple item (light weapon, club, or staff) 1 hour 10
Moderate item (martial weapon, light armor) 1 day 15
Complex item (medium armor, lock) 1 week 20
Highly complex item (heavy armor) 2 weeks 25

Crafting takes the specified time, cut down to the nearest hour.
In the above example, the first-level Warrior (if proficient with smith’s tools), can begin to forge a sword if he
has access to all the tools he needs (the game master may possibly require a forge to smelt raw iron into
ingots). As a moderate complexity item, it would take him one day if he has all the required materials, if he
succeeds on a DC 15 Crafting check.

New Skills
Two new skills are presented as part of the conversion: Alchemy and Engineering.

Alchemy
Alchemy allows for one to create potions. Potions are magical items that are created by the Alchemy skill,
and they are brews that contain the power of a spell within them. The alchemist can infuse any spell they
can cast into a potion as a Crafting check if they possess Alchemy. This requires the ability to cast the spell
in question, such as by knowing and preparing it.
This consumes the mana required as normal. A spell with the ritual tag must be cast normally to be made
into a potion. If you do not normally have access to magic spells, but have an effective spellcaster’s level
due to an ability or feat, you may choose which spell list to access for your alchemical potions.

Prerequisites: Alchemy requires at least 1 level in a spellcasting class or an Intelligence of 15 or higher.

Special: Herbalism proficiency acts as alchemy, except that it is confined to the priest, druid or shaman
spell lists.
Special: Characters attempting alchemy without access to spells must at least have nominal access, if only
restricted to alchemy.
Activation. Drinking a potion, coating it on the trigger of activation is usually drinking the potion

the user that provokes a reaction. If a spell, it has Creation. Creating a potion is considered
the same targeting requirements, although the moderate difficulty task (1 day) if the spell
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

replicated is equal to level 5 or lower, and very
complicated (1 week) if it is level 6 or higher. The
alchemist’s effective caster level is equal to one-
half his hit dice (maximum spell level replicated
equal to 6).
Creation. Creating a potion is considered
moderate difficulty task (1 day) if the spell
replicated is equal to level 5 or lower, and very
complicated (1 week) if it is level 6 or higher.
Saving Throw. The saving throw for
technological devices (if one is called for) is equal
to 8 + proficiency bonus + Intelligence (if an
arcane spell) or Spirit (if a divine spell).
Costs. A potion costs gold pieces equal to 50 x
spell’s current level x the minimum number of
levels in the spellcasting class to access the spell.
If the spell replicated is a cantrip, the alchemist’s
level is treated as the class level and does not
require spending more gold.
If the spell costs any additional cost in reagents,
the cost is added to the total.
Concentration Spells. The duration of a potion
with a duration of concentration is equal to 2d4
increments of the final duration (rounds if the
maximum is a minute, minutes if the maximum is
an hour, etc.). A character cannot benefit from
multiple concentration potions.
Imbibed potions do not require concentration
(even if they originally required it), but one
creature cannot benefit from more than one such
demanding potion. In effect, ingesting a potion is
treated as concentrating on it, and if drinking
another potion that demands concentration, the
newer one takes precedence and dispels the
effects of the old one that required concentration.
For example, a first-level Goblin rogue, upon
gaining his racial features, gains the Goblins’
[Living Better] racial trait, giving him proficiency
in Alchemy, and one level in a spellcasting class
of his choice. Choosing druid, the goblin gains
spells known as if his druid level was 1. This
allows him to brew potions for all recipes he
possesses of level 1 druid spells. He cannot
normally cast these spells with mana, but he can
cast these effective spells to brew potions.
He can choose Light, Gust, and Control Flames
as 0-level-potions by spending one day and 25
gold, or Rejuvenation and Entangling Roots as
1st level spells by spending one day and 50 gold.
If he reaches level 6, he is treated as a level 3
druid in terms of accessing potions, allowing him
to create potions of 2nd level spells such as
Barkskin and Swiftmend, or a heightened
Entangling Roots or Rejuvenation.

Engineering
Engineering allows for one to create technological devices. Such devices are non-magical items that are
created with the Engineering skill, and are classified into five groups, according to general type, which are
Bombs, Firearms, Gadgets, Constructs, and Mecha. Most engineering items deal concussive damage.
Concussive damage is half bludgeoning, half thunder. Divide the damage before applying resistances.
Prerequisites: Engineering requires at least 1 tinker level or an Intelligence of 15 or higher to become
proficient with the skill. A character that creates an engineering device is always proficient with it so long as
they pass the Intelligence requirements.

Firearm (50 x EP) x 2 Moderate: 1 day
Gadget 100 x (SL ^ 2) As potions
Construct/Mecha 800 x (CR ^ 2) Very complex; 2 weeks

Charges: Charges depend on energy sources. By default, the energy source is mechanical (clockwork,
springs, etc.). See Energy Sources below for reference.

Technological Families
Bombs
Examples. The Big One, hand grenades, goblin land mines, siege rockets, siege breaching charge
Also known as explosives by default, these are
indirect thrown weapons that have a range of 30
ft.
Indirect weapons call for a saving throw at the
point of impact, and require a successful
activation check. They affect a 10-ft square
radius, and call for a Agility saving throw to halve increase by the gadget’s own modifier or spell.
the damage taken. A bomb can be heard clearly
up to 100 feet away.
Bombs deal 1d6 concussive damage per
proficiency bonus invested. Bombs may be
thrown indirectly, or placed as a mine, or crafted
into a rocket. A bomb weighs 1 pound per
proficiency bonus it was crafted of. A bomb may
be designed to send shrapnel, in which case it
deals half slashing damage instead of half
bludgeoning damage. If a bomb explodes near
another bomb, they both set off, and the damage
stacks (up to triple damage and range).
Bomb Forms
Grenade Form A thrown bomb is treated as a
thrown improvised weapon for all intents and
purposes. This choice is made during crafting,
and does not have a cost. Depending on the fuse
(see fuses under equipment), they can explode
on later dates. By default, an instantaneous fuse
has the grenade explode at the end of the user’s
current turn (and not the second it lands or
impacts a creature, allowing it to be thrown back).
If launched from a gadget, the range of the bomb
This is called a Grenade Launcher or a Mortar.
Mine Form In its mine form, it takes an action to
prime, and triggers on any creature that moves
into its 5-foot square, exploding at its same
radius. A mine can be seen with a Perception
check equal to the saving throw DC. A mine is
counted as a trap for all mechanical purposes.
Rocket Form In its rocket form, using a rocket
takes an action and a ranged weapon attack roll
(using Intelligence as normal). The rocket’s range
is 60/120 feet, and is otherwise treated as a
thrown weapon, not a projectile weapon. Its other
properties (such as explosion radius, Agility save,
and weight) does not otherwise change. When a
rocket reaches its maximum range, it explodes
regardless of whether it reached its target or not.

Special. Bombs can be planted on targets (with Sleight of Hand opposed to Perception) and exploded
depending on the fuse duration. Saves made against explosives successfully planted on the target have
disadvantage to the target’s saving throw.

Malfunction. On a malfunction with the activation of a bomb or mine (or attack roll with a rocket), there is a
30% chance of each.
● The explosive does not explode;
● Or, has a delayed explosion (1d4 rounds);
● Or is thrown in the wrong direction.
Roll a 1d8. Clockwise, each number represents a direction (1 represents forward, 5, backwards, 3 on the
right, 7 on the left). The explosive flies off instead 10 feet in that direction.
If a bomb bounces off a nearby wall to the user, it may explode other latent bombs.

Firearms
Examples. Heavy and medium rifles, boomsticks, siege cannons, and sniper rifles.
These are ranged ammunition weapons with a and heavy varieties. They require bullets for
range of (200/800) if medium or heavy, and ammunition, which act as normal ammunition.
(150/600) if light. They come in light, medium, A firearm has a capacity of 1 bullet per
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Proficiency bonus it was crafted with, before
having to be reloaded with the use of one action
per bullet. A firearm gives as much sound as an
explosive when it is used.
Firearms deal 1d6 piercing damage per
proficiency bonus if medium. If light, they deal
1d4 piercing damage. If heavy, they deal 1d8
piercing damage.
If the gun uses pellets instead of bullets, it deals
bludgeoning damage.
Firearms require reloading with gunpowder and
ammunition (cost of each is detailed under
equipment). A firearm weighs 5 pounds if a light
weapon, 10 if medium, and 15 if heavy.

Special. Firearms can be equipped with bayonets (see equipment) that allow for a touch-blast strike.

Malfunction. On a malfunction with an attack roll with a firearm, it malfunctions, performing one of the two
effects (as declared by the GM, or rolled randomly):
Jam The firearm jams, requiring a minute to clean it out.
Explode The gunpowder inside explodes, dealing the firearm’s normal damage in a 10-foot-sphere,
centered on the firearm itself. The user and any affected creature may perform an Agility check to half
damage. The damage dealt is half fire, half bludgeoning, and the firearm takes the respective damage.
Special.Regular crossbows are similar to firearms, using mechanical (clockwork) engines. The reload
property counts as a charge. By default, crossbows do not have malfunction chances, however, but can be
upgraded as firearms (gaining malfunction chances as normal). Crossbows start with 1 capacity.

Gadgets
Examples. Gnomish mind-control helmet, goblin rocket boots, grappling hook shooter, and rocket
launchers.
These technological devices act like items that
replicate spells. Gadgets have (upon creation)
eight charges of said spell that can be discharged
by the same action it takes to discharge the spell.
Each discharge consumes one charge.
Casting a spell through a gadget is not counted
as a real spell, and thus is not subject to effects
dependent on magic type, schools, and can be
used against creatures immune to magic.
A gadget may store one spell level every two
Engineering Points invested (maximum 3rd level
spells), and requires one minute of cooldown
between uses.
A gadget’s properties and charges depend on its
energy source, which must be chosen during
creation (such as electricity, gas/oil, mechanic,
etc.
Special: If the spell replicated by the gadget has a
range or target of self or personal, or grants or
affects movement speed (such as fly or feather
fall), the gadget must also be worn as a harness,
which is treated as leather armor. One cannot
wear both a harness and armor heavier than light,
but can wear multiple gadgets on one harness.
If a spell is a touch spell that may also target
other creatures, creating it as a harness
increases the spell’s duration by 25%.

Malfunction: On a malfunction with the activation roll with a gadget, it is either drained or overheated (as
declared by the DM, or rolled randomly).
Drain It loses 1d4 charges, and may be used after a minute. If this reduction takes it to -1 charge, the
gadget cannot be used until it regains full charges.
Overheat It begins an extended cooldown that remains for one hour.

Constructs
Examples. Constructs like the Alliance’s combat and harvest golems, the Scourge’s flesh golems, and the
Burning Legion’s Infernals.
These act like creatures of the construct type.
They obey those who hold control over them.
Constructs have eight charges, each used for one
hour. The construct may have one CR per
Engineering Point, and may be custom-built from
any construct in the monster manual.
Constructs take orders when the user
communicates it to them via touching and/or
manipulating knobs/controls on them, or
otherwise issuing a spoken command when
adjacent to them.
For example, a dwarven siege engine driver can
use his bonus action to use the engine’s ability to
shoot anti-air rockets, or use his own action to
either shoot the siege engine’s cannons or peer
out of the siege engine and shoot their personal
rifle.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Any attack that damages a mecha (but not a
vehicle) deals half damage to the user within,
dividing the damage evenly (round down).
If a mecha is the same size category of the user,
it is instead called a suit, but otherwise acts the
same.
The mecha cannot be smaller than its user. A
mecha’s properties and charges depend on its
energy source. The user does not benefit from
any damage or condition resistances or
immunities the mecha has, and may be targeted
(though the user still benefits from the half-to-all
weapon damage).
A user within a mecha or suit gains ¾ cover
versus any attack from outside.

Special. Mecha may also be made to fly or to swim.

Flight/Swim Speed Adding flight and swim speed requires a minimum proficiency of +3. Adding flight
capability requires a +1 EP investment.

Proficiency Speed/Round
+2 -
+3 60
+4 90
+5 120
+6 180

The engineer may reduce the land speed by 1 foot to add it to flight speed, up to a minimum land speed of
0 feet.

A construct’s properties and charges depend on its energy source.

Healing and fixing a construct costs one hour and 10 gp per hit point regained in engineered or scavenged
materials.

Malfunction. On a malfunction with an activation roll with a construct, it either shuts down, is haywire,
burns fuel, or runs slowly (as declared by the DM, or rolled randomly).
Inactivity The construct remains inactive, and locks down for one hour.
Haywire. The construct activates normally, but be hostile to anything in sight (possibly attacking the user)
until restarted.
Burn Fuel. The construct activates normally, but burns fuel at double the normal rate until restarted.
Slow Run. The construct activates normally, but be slowed (as the spell) until it shuts off and restarts.
When being activated, it takes a minute to start up before it begins to act.
Constructs consume one charge per hour of activation. Constructs may behave independently, or when
controlled by the user (in the latter case, it is treated as a mount).

Mecha
Examples. Mecha includes both Vehicles (such as the Alliance’s steam tanks, dwarven gyrocopters,
catapults and ballistas, the Horde’s demolishers, goblin zeppelins, shredders, and the dreadful Scourge
meat wagons. This also includes Mecha that protect the body as a suit, such as the gnome combat armor.
Both act as constructs, except that the user can Strength score, movement speed, and abilities)

mecha (using the mecha’s proficiency bonus, the mecha is not airsealed, etc.).

It takes an action and 5 ft. of movement to enter or leave a mecha. Vehicles are treated as mechas.
Merged actions work for one party over the other.
Malfunction. This acts like a construct’s malfunction, except that it cannot be hostile. It may still lose
charges.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Mecha Vehicles (Siege Weapons)

Vehicles (including but not limited to siege weapons) act as normal mechs. The driver may use their action
to use the siege weapon’s designated attack, using the vehicle’s bonus to hit.
The Agility DC of any ability called is equal to 8 + Proficiency + Intelligence.
Some siege weapons can’t normally move (and are designated by Push), and others require fuel as
mecha. Vehicles may deal siege damage or normal damage (declared during creation). Siege damage falls
under normal categories of nonmagical slashing/bludgeoning, etc., but if designated as siege attacks, it
deals double damage to structures, and half to creatures. Vehicles may mount rockets, firearms, and
offensive and defensive gadgets, but they are all external (and thus have a chance to be stolen or
targeted). The user (or any fellow riders) may make use of these resources as their actions. Driving a
vehicle requires the user to merge their actions with the vehicle. If the vehicle uses its action to attack, the
user cannot attack themselves, etc. (unless they are Drivers).
By default, the range of a siege weapon is an integrated firearm that may be customized (the cost is added
to the cost of the vehicle). A mech/vehicle still requires actions to reload, if the vehicle has other occupants,
they may instead expend the actions to reload, leaving the shooter free to use the firearm constantly. Its
ram damage is equal to 1d8 per Proficiency of creation (plus its Strength as normal).

Energy Sources
A device’s energy source determines how often it can recharge, how it malfunctions, and various other
traits.
Alchemical Engine (Potions) The device is
powered by alchemical powers. The engine
consumes any kind of potion to activate the
device. The engine grants 2 charges per spell
level of the spell in the potion. This is per dose for For the purposes of energy sources, firearms and
a medium creature. For example, a single dose of
a healing potion grants 2 charges, while an anti-
magic potion grants 10 charges.
Arcane/Mana Engine (Mana) The device is
powered by a combination of mana-focusing
lenses and raw arcane energies. So long as
enough mana is in the device, it is active. A
charge consumes 1 point of mana per EP of the
device. The focusing lens can usually hold
enough mana for three uses.
Mana can be invested by linking a caster’s
manaflow to the device, which begins feeding off
his own mana reserves. After establishing the
connection, a caster may invest up to half their
maximum mana.
After severing the connection, the caster’s own
mana circulation is disrupted, and requires a
Spellcasting check (spellcasting attribute modifier
plus proficiency bonus) with a DC equal to the
amount of mana invested into the device. On a
failed check, the character cannot cast spells for
an hour.
A device cannot feed off the mana signatures of
two different casters, and must expend all its
charges first.
Combustion (Oil/Gas/Powder) The device is
powered by combustion. So long as fuel remains
in the tank, the device is active.
A charge is gained by one pint of liquid oil,
phlogiston, or gas. A device’s tank is usually large
Version 2.4
enough for eight pints (a gallon). Gas and oil are
usually kept in traveling tanks. A pint of gas or vial
of phlogiston usually costs 50 gold. Tinkers start
out with 2 free vials of phlogiston.
bombs use combustion, but two ounces of
gunpowder per use for firearms, and one pound
per bombs. You do not have to pay an additional
cost with bombs, but must supply gunpowder and
bullets (or pellets) for firearms.
Electricity (Batteries) The device is powered by
batteries. A charge is gained per single battery.
So long as enough charges remain in the device,
it is active.
Any single battery functions for one hour before
expiring. A single battery costs 50 gold, and
weighs one pound. Batteries are tiny items made
of iron, and have the appropriate statistics. A
battery can be charged by electricity spells (in
which case recharging it acts as a mana engine).
Granting an electrical engine more charges than
its maximum automatically causes a malfunction
(such as by deliberately targeting it with an
electricity spell).
Elemental (Spirits) The device is powered by
elemental spirits. This works exactly as the
necromancy engine.
An elemental may only be sacrificed if it is a
called elemental and not a conjured one.
Elementals used for this purpose call out for
creatures that can aid them (such as Shamans
and witch doctors), and typically pledge aid or
reward for being released (though they are under
no compulsion to actually fulfill their promise).
The device also naturally regenerates 1d4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

charges per day as the elemental rests (cannot
exceed its maximum charge).
Mechanical (Clockwork/Springs) The device is
powered by springs, gears, and clockwork
mechanisms.
A charge is gained by winding the mechanism
designated in the device or creature. Ten minutes
of winding grants one charge.
If the gadget is damaged, or if the construct or
mecha suffer a critical hit, it loses one charge.
This does not otherwise prevent the creature from
being raised or animated, but may be used once
per creature (unless that creature later comes to
life).
This device regains 1 charge if it kills (or reduces
to 0 hit points) any living creature. The device
also naturally regenerates 1d4 charges per eight
hours of not being used.
Necromancy (Souls) The device is powered by a
necromantic crystal (of any CR chosen), with one
charge per CR point (maximum 10). Necromancy
souls are stored in soul gems (created via the
Capture Essence spell). The device does not
naturally regenerate charges, and spent charges
are useless. Most necromancy devices have a
backup engine (usually mechanical or electricity)
Steam (Coal) The device is powered by steam-
power. A charge is gained by burning coal (or any
similar, slow-burning material).
A steam-powered device requires a small furnace
(either within it, as a mecha or construct, or
outside it if a gadget), and four pounds of coal
grants one charge over five minutes of burning. A
gadget may be charged by steam-power, and not
directly powered by it, following the same rules.
When charging a device, the furnace may be
resupplied with coal until all charges are set. The
furnace can hold up to thirty-two pounds of coal
(enough for 8 hours).

Technological Modifications
An Engineering Point may be spent (deducting from the total amount invested) to add a different effect.
Alternatively, an Engineering Point may be gained in exchange for a penalty on the item (usually to offset a
bonus to a particular area). With technological modifications, a character can decrease the radius of an
explosive but increase its damage (or vice versa).

Bombs
Costs: 1 EP
Careful Explosion The explosive’s (any type) damage can be controlled. It can exclude a number of 5-foot
squares equal to 2 + your intelligence modifier, and can be designated by the user before the damage is
rolled.
Firework The explosive (any type) releases a sharp whistle and a ringing blast. Suffering damage from this
explosive and failing the saving throw to halve damage has a chance to either blind or deafen the targets
(50% chance for both) for 1 minute. A successful saving throw negates the additional effect.
Sapper The explosive (any type) deals double damage to structures, but half to creatures (constructs are
creatures for this purpose).
Special Effect The explosive (any type) may manifest a 0-level spell (or half a spell level per engineering
point spent). If this is an area of effect, it takes place in its original spell area or in the area of effect of the
bomb (whichever is shorter). If it is a direct effect, it targets the space the bomb was tossed only.
Widened Explosion The explosive (any type) bomb’s explosive radius increases by 10 meters per
engineering point spent.

Costs: -1 EP
Focused Explosive The explosive’s (bomb or mine) area of effect is reduced to a single 5 foot-square, but
increases the damage as if +1 EP.

Firearms
Costs: 1 EP
Scattershot The firearm can be activated as a Use Object action, and deal damage in a cone instead of a
direct attack (and therefore does not suffer from disadvantage when used while in melee, and does not
require proficiency). The damage is in a 15’ Cone per Proficiency bonus spent on this ability. This uses two

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

bullets or pellets per shot. A shot calls for a Agility saving throw (DC 8 + Proficiency + Intelligence) to half
damage. The user may spend another proficiency bonus and double the cone’s range.
Automatic Fire The firearm can be activated as a Use Object action, and deal damage in a line instead of a
direct attack (and therefore does not suffer from disadvantage when used in melee, and does not require
proficiency). The damage is in a 5-foot wide line with length equal to the firearm’s initial range. This uses
three bullets or pellets. A shot calls for a Agility saving throw (DC 8 + Proficiency + Intelligence) to half
damage. After dealing damage to a maximum of six targets (or two per bullet spent), the rest suffer no
additional damage.
Silent: The firearm’s sound is muffled, and imposes no penalty to the user’s Stealth check when used.
Sniper: The firearm’s range doubles.
Repeating/Revolving: The firearm gains +4 to its capacity. This modification does not decrease its initial
capacity, but does decrease damage as normal.

Gadgets
Cost: 1 EP
Quick Use The gadget may be used again within 1d4 rounds instead of an entire minute.
Cost: -1 EP
Long Cooldown The gadget requires a day to cool down. This cannot be used with quick use.
Low Charge The gadget can contain only one charge.

Mecha/Construct
Cost: 1 EP
Quick Startup The construct or mecha takes one round to activate.
Airsealed The mecha can be air sealed and supplied with its own air containers. Vehicles can be air sealed
for no cost.

Infusion Skill (Enchanting)

The infusion skill allows for the infusion, diffusion, and manipulation of magical items via infusion dust. A
magical item, when created, requires investing Infusion Dust Points to reach a level of rarity (from
Common, Uncommon, Rare, Very Rare, Legendary, or Artifact), though the last two also involve special
quests. Once having the required Infusion Dust, one can infuse them into placing enchantments of the
required level.

Prerequisites: Infusion requires at least 5 levels in a spellcasting class and an Intelligence of 15 or higher
to become proficient with. You can use the feat Infusionist to gain access to the the Infusion Skill.
Gathering Infusion Dust: There are two methods of gaining infusion dust:
Disenchanting Existing Items. One may is slain, or when the attunement is surrendered (a

Chapter 5: Feats
Strike feats
These are effects that modify a successful attack roll. If a strike effect calls for a saving throw, the DC is
equal to 8 + proficiency bonus + Strength (or Agility if using a finesse or light weapon).
[Strike] effects cost a bonus action, regardless if it is a feat, class feature, or spell.

Spell Strike [Strike]

When you make a melee or ranged attack, you may use the strike’s bonus action to apply the effects of a
direct-target spell to the struck creature. The spell targets the creature struck, and cannot target anyone
else, such as you, an area, or an adjacent creature. The creature is still entitled a saving throw if the spell
allows it, but if the spell targets AC, the effect does not call for another roll.
This is declared before the strike is made, and a spell that is designated to discharge is lost harmlessly if
the attack fails. This cannot be applied to a strike spell.

Infusionist
Prerequisite: Five levels in a spellcasting class, Intelligence 15 or higher
You gain proficiency with the infusion skill, and can infuse and diffuse dust from items, as well as create
dust from mana.

Mystic Infusion
Prerequisite: Ability to cast arcane or divine spells, access to cantrips
You gain increased proficiency with the minor spells known as cantrips. You gain the following benefits.
● You can prepare a number of cantrips equal the number of spells you can prepare normally (2 +
double your spellcasting attribute modifier) instead of the normal number.
● Cantrips do not cost any mana for you, but require a minimum number of mana points equal to 1
point per dice of damage they potentially deal (d8 for frostbolt, d10 for firebolt). Cantrips that do not
increase in potency with your level require only 1 mana in reserve.

Mystic Blast
Prerequisite: Ability to cast arcane or divine spells
You can make a ranged spell attack as an action, dealing 1d6 damage per maximum spell level you can
access. This damage can be dealt to creatures within 30 ft.
This does not cost mana, and can be done at will as a supernatural ability, so long as you have at least 1
mana per d6 of damage. If you are fatigued from 0 mana, you cannot make use of this ability unless you
are no longer fatigued. The damage’s type is chosen by you upon gaining this feat, and can be Acid, Cold,
Electricity, or Fire. This may be used with the Spell Strike feat.
Special. You may instead deal fel, thunder, or holy damage with your Mystic Blast, but it deals 1d4 damage
instead per spell level, and you must be able to cast a spell with the aforementioned descriptors.

Improved Regeneration
Prerequisite: Troll, Stamina of 13 or higher
Benefits:
● Increase your stamina value of 1 to a maximum of 20.
● You can regenerate 1 hit point per minute. This ability allows you to stabilize alone, in case you fall
unconscious.

Chapter 6: Powers and Magic

Whether it comes in the form of a healer’s gentle touch or the wrath of a warlock’s fiery rain, magic is a way
of life in Azeroth. For good or evil, magic has infiltrated the world and shows no sign of leaving. The dark
siren call of the arcane and the gentle but firm tapping of divine energies both color the world and affect its
inhabitants. The way of magic is often a dangerous road to travel, yet most set out confidently on a journey
that they do not expect to end in doom.
The path of the arcane magic user is dark and questionable. Arcane power is undeniably the strongest
magic branch; arcanists can command elements, monsters and even undead with their power. It was the
use of these powers, however, that attracted the most destructive forces to Azeroth — not once, but many
times in the past ten thousand years. Even with history proving time and again that arcane use leads to
damnation, there is no lack of arrogant new arcanists on Azeroth who believe that they can control the
forces at work. Arcane magic users are usually high elves and humans. Demons are the masters of the
arcane, and the Lich King and his Scourge spellcasters are also talented.
The path of the divine is less fraught with paradox and doom. Arcane casters call it the weaker path, while
divine casters calmly state that it is the subtler of the two. Focused on support magic and healing,
adherents of the divine can also call down the destructive forces of nature. Divine practitioners are usually
orcs, tauren or night elves. Ironforge dwarves and humans also have their divine magic users.
This chapter introduces the mana system, and the mechanics that facilitate its function.

Spellcasting Ability
Depending on the character’s class or race, they may gain spellcasting abilities. Spellcasting can either be
arcane (drawn from studying esoterica, complex ley patterns, and ancient tomes and runes) or divine
(drawn from revering and being granted powers from powerful entities, such as the Elven goddess Elune,
the Holy Light, the Unholy Shadow, or the Lich King).
Regardless of source, merely gaining spellcasting capabilities grants the character the ability to cast spells
and maintain a mana pool to fuel their powers. The spellcaster needs to have spells readied and prepared,
and also requires the mana necessary to fuel them.
The character’s caster level is separate from their character level or hit dice, and determines access to new
spell levels (representing mastery of magic), while the spellcaster’s proficiency bonus determines the cost
of magic spells and mana pool size (which represents their practical training).

Accessing and Preparing Spells. The caster level of the spellcaster is determined by the ability that
grants spellcasting. Mages gain 1 caster level for every level in the mage class, while paladins gain half the
normal rate. A spellcaster can only prepare spells if their caster level is 1 or higher. The below table shows
the spell level accessed by caster level.

Caster Level Spell Level Accessed

1 1 (and cantrips if specified by class)
3 2
5 3
7 4
9 5
11 6
13 7
15 8
17 9

For example, a mage (level 10) and a paladin (level 10) have caster levels of 10 and 5, respectively,
allowing the mage to prepare 5th level spells, and the paladin to prepare 3rd level spells.
Merely having a high enough caster level is not enough to begin casting, however; a character must also
prepare and access the relevant spell.

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Accessing Spells from 1st level or Higher. A spellcaster may ready any spell they can access (and have
the required minimum caster level). This requires being tutored, praying for a spell, studying one, or finding
spells in scrolls or spellbooks. A spellcaster may always use a spellbook they find, or scribe the spell from a
spellbook they don’t own to a spellbook they do own.
There are several ways to gain access to and ready spells.
● 1st level: The first level of any spellcasting class instantaneously grants a number of readied spells,
such as by gaining a grimoire, spellbook, libram (holy spellbook) etc.
Higher levels: When leveling up, the spellcaster gains 2 spells of any spell level they can cast. They
are treated as if they have spent their pastime performing research (see below or Discovery on
chapter 4).
● Scribing a Spell: Drawing new runes with rare inks, carving a dedication on a shaman totem, or
reproducing a spell in a mage’s spellbook or scroll into another one all require acute understanding
of spellcasting, time, and materials. A character may add new spells into their spellbook (or class
equivalents) by spending 2 hours and 50 gold per spell level they scribe.
● Research: A character can research and create their own spell (effectively preparing a spell in their
spell lists they could not find yet) by spending two weeks in research and the cost of scribing the
spell. This works exactly as the skill discovery ability (see chapter 4).
● Tutelage: Spellcasters may gain spells directly from other spellcasters or magical beings such as
celestials, fey, demons, undead, or monstrosities. Tutelage costs the same as scribing a new spell,
or may be done for free in return for a service. Druids, shamans, and warlocks usually resort to
being tutored by powerful beings (such as Cenarius taught Malfurion Stormrage, the elementals
taught Thrall, and demonic cults teach warlocks) in exchange for services (usually related to
defeating their enemies or reducing their influence. A conjured creature cannot tutor their conjurer,
which requires the aspiring cultist to actively find or call a creature into Azeroth, and not merely
conjure or summon it.

Preparing Spells. A character can prepare a base number of spells for every spell level equal to 2 +
double their spellcasting attribute modifier. For their highest-level spell, however, they can only prepare half
the base number, and for their second-highest, they can only prepare three-fourths the value.
For example, a 10th level paladin with 16 (+3) Spirit can prepare 8 base spells (2 + 3 x 2), and can access
up to 3rd level spells. He may only prepare 4 3rd-level spells (since 3rd level is his highest spell level), and
6 2nd level, and he may prepare 8 1st level spells normally.

Mana. The character has a pool of mana points equal to their spellcasting ability score (Intelligence for
mages, charisma for paladins, etc.) plus their proficiency bonus. Mana is spent on casting spells, and spells
fail when the mana pool doesn’t have enough mana for the spell (unless the spell itself costs 0 mana).
A character regains a number of mana points equal to their proficiency bonus per hour of not casting spells,
and regains all of it after a full night’s rest.
A character may also regain mana through other methods:

Note. Possessing an active Mana pool also opens up the character to anti-magic effects, such as Mana
Burn and Detonate Mana, which only function if the creature has an active mana pool. Some creatures,
such as demons, always have mana pools (regardless of actually having spellcasting capability).

Mana Cost of Spells. The higher the spellcaster’s proficiency bonus, the lower the cost of magic spells in
terms of mana points. By default, every magic spell costs 6 mana + 1 mana per spell level – the caster’s
proficiency bonus.
Cantrips and 0-level spells cost less mana; they cost 3 mana – proficiency bonus (minimum 0).
Strike, Shot, Debilitate, and Invigorate spells all cost half the normal mana cost for a spell of their level
(round down, minimum equal to the spell’s original cost).

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

For example: 1st level warlock spends 5 mana on her 1st level spells (6 + 1 – 2), and 1 mana on her
cantrips. At level 5 (or proficiency +3), her 1st level spells cost 4, and her cantrips cost 0 mana. A debilitate
spell (such as Mind Blast) costs 2 mana for her.

Spellcasting Rules
Spellcasting may be interrupted if the spellcaster is harmed while casting or channeling the spell (such as
channeling or stance spells, or when struck with a held action).
When hit this way, the spellcaster must succeed on a concentration check (Stamina saving throw), DC 10
or half the damage dealt (whichever is higher) or the spell fails (and the mana is spent uselessly).
This acts similarly to casting spells in situations that are difficult to cast spells in (such as while on being a
storm-tossed ship or while being distracted by wind and rain).
Auras also require disruption while active.

Resurrection
Altars of resurrections are known centerpoints of power, usually built in intersections of lay energies or in
holy consecrated areas. It is these sites, once erected, that heroes may be resurrected to do battle once
again (for an offering of gold). To be restored via an Altar of Resurrection, a character must be at least of
5th level or higher and attune themselves with one altar (which takes a day of being less than 30 feet from
it, and costs nothing). The offering may be paid with coin, or with the sacrifice of any similarly-valued object
(such as breaking an ancestral blade, or the sacrifice of a being within two levels from the target). If a
creature dies on a plane different from where its altar is located, it cannot be revived by the altar.
The Altar takes one hour to revive a creature whose spirit is called out to, and besides the offering and a
sure way to identify the target, the target’s corpse is not required. The resurrected creature appears
unarmed, unarmored, and unclothed, and has no starting possessions. If the character died while affected
by a curse, they retain the curse, but their bodies are free from any diseases or poisons. The character is
also at full hit points and mana, and retains any prepared and set spells, and takes a penalty of -4 on all
d20 checks. Each long rest removes -1 from this penalty until the penalty is wholly removed.
Summoning a character’s spirit this way costs 100 gold per level of the target. Altars of Resurrection are in
every Alliance, Horde, and Independent (see Scourge) city of populace 1,000 or higher, or any fort or
citadel (but not every small military outpost), and is also attuned to its military and civil leaders. Access to
the Altar is usually restricted--as those who sabotage it undermine a great weapon.
The altar cannot resurrect a creature that is not dead, or one not willing to return, or a creature that has
already underwent a transformation that changed what it was (living being into an undead, or a demon), or
a creature whose soul is stolen or trapped.

Spell Level and Heightening

Heightening Spells. A caster may cast a lower-level spell with additional mana as if it were a few spell
levels higher. This is termed heightening. Spells that can be heightened gain various effects when they are
heightened at specific spell levels.

Regaining Mana. Depleted mana may be regained by various abilities, resting, drinking potions, or even by
certain spells.

Passive Regeneration A spellcaster regains mana points equal to their proficiency bonus for every hour in
which they do not cast spells, do not perform physical or mental stimulation (such as climbing mountains,
riding on horseback, studying spells etc.), or whenever they take a short rest. A long rest restores all mana
points.

Active Regeneration Can fall under several types: using abilities and spells, potions, magical nexi, or
magical vampirism (see below):
● Abilities and Spells Some spells (such as the warlock’s Life Tap) restore mana points, as well as
abilities such as the Mage’s Arcane Recovery.
● Potions Also have the ability to restore mana (see equipment).
● Magical Nexi Areas where magical ley-lines intersect, pools of energy (such as the High Elves’
Sunwell, Mana Fountains, and Night Elven Moonwells) can also restore energy from proximity (if the
area is powerful enough) or interaction (as in most cases).
○ Mana Fountain. Sometimes, in centers of magical energy (such as lay line intersections), a
wellspring of power appears. A creature with mana may either improve their passive
regeneration or actively tap into a mana fountain when within 30 ft. of it.
Passively While in proximity of the well for an hour, the spellcaster regains 25% bonus mana
from resting.
Actively The spellcaster may drink from the well directly, gaining mana points as if they
rested for one hour (used once per hour).
○ The Sunwell. A fount of mystical energy, the Sunwell counts as a mana fountain for the
purposes of regaining mana, but its range is vastly superior to regular mana fountains: any
creature that is allied to all (or some) of the current guardians of the Sunwell may benefit
from the properties of a regular mana fountain as long as they are within the borders of
Quel’Thalas.
Anyone who benefits from the Sunwell for an extended period (a year or more) suffers from
Arcane Withdrawal upon losing access to it, or once it is corrupted or destroyed.
● Magical Vampirism One may also feed on a dead or helpless creature’s mana. By so, the feeding
creature can regain mana equal to one-half the mana the creature has. If the creature is helpless
but not dead, they may roll an opposed Stamina saving throw--and if they succeed, the vampirism
fails, and cannot be used again for one hour from the same creature.
This act is usually seen as an evil (or at least, chaotic) act, as drawing mana could have a corruptive
influence on the feeding creature. This also usually has unforeseen psychological or physiological
aftereffects, such as addiction to the act or arcane withdrawal.

One cannot benefit from any active regenerative effect more than once every hour, and takes the highest
bonus only, regardless of the effect’s source. Passive mana regeneration is not affected by active
regeneration.

Forcing a Spell. If casting a spell without sufficient mana points left, a spellcaster may perform a Stamina
saving throw to cast a spell regardless.
The DC is equal to 20 + spell level + mana points below 0. If successful, count the mana cost against the
current pool (this can reach a negative value, increasing the DC).
On a failure, the spellcaster is mentally fatigued, suffering one level of exhaustion. They also cannot cast
another spell until the exhaustion is removed naturally, and if mana is restored to at least half maximum.

Arcane Withdrawal (Optional Rule). Arcane magic is known to be addictive--and tapping into the
Sunwell’s vast energies more than once and losing it afterwards causes severe mental and physical stress.
If cursed with this dreadful affliction, one must meditate for thirty minutes every day (this does not
contribute to short rests), or else suffer disadvantage to their saves, and grant advantage towards any

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

check to affect them with any arcane spell, as their bodies begin drawing in any kind of mana. Every day
without meditating also reduces the maximum mana one can store by 1 point. Meditation is a difficult task ,
and many prefer to satiate themselves by drawing mana and restoring actively, such as drinking from mana
fountains, potions, and magical vampirism (see above). Meditation requires a Spirit score of 13 or higher.
Any mana restoration effect delays the onset of withdrawal for a number of days equal to the creature’s
Stamina modifier.
If one’s maximum mana is reduced to 0 from this effect, they typically transform into mindless mana
addicts, who relentlessly seek out mana fountains and similar restorative effects (such as potions) and
gather there, viciously savaging anyone who seeks to take away their light.

Spellbooks and Relics

Spellbooks contain spells and casting formulae, and are required for a caster to have and prepare their
spells in. After preparing a spell, referring to a spellbook is not required except to change the spell.

Relics
Relics are enchanted items of uncommon quality that hold charms that strengthen specific spells the relic is
attuned to. Usually, relics count as spellbooks or are charms placed on spellbooks.
Each character that prepares a spell on their spell list through a relic gains the bonus so long as the relic is
physically with them.
Relics are detailed under the Equipment chapter.

Tattoos
A character may tattoo spells onto their skins, scales, or clothes to hold their spells besides normal
spellbooks. This costs the same as normal scribed spells, and the creature's body is treated to be the
spellbook.
It takes 2 hours and 50 gp per spell level to tattoo the spells onto skin.
10% of tattooed spells may be harmed and rendered unintelligible after the character sustains sufficient
acid, fire, or slashing damage (declared by the GM, but usually if reduced to 0 hit points).
If rendered unintelligible this way, the spells can be scribed once more by paying one-half the total cost and
time (25 per spell level and 1 hour).
A medium character can scribe up to 50 pages worth onto their skin (such as chest, arms, legs, etc.). For
smaller creatures, the pages are halved, and for larger creatures, the pages are doubled.
A known spell-tattooist is the demon hunter Illidan Stormrage.

Spells
Whether it comes in the form of a healer’s gentle touch or the wrath of a warlock’s fiery rain, magic is a way
of life in Azeroth. For good or evil, magic has infiltrated the world and shows no sign of leaving. The dark
siren call of the arcane and the gentle but firm tapping of divine energies both color the world and affect its
inhabitants. The way of magic is often a dangerous road to travel, yet most set out confidently on a journey
that they do not expect to end in doom.
Spells can be cast by any character who has access to mana and a spell list.

Spell Definitions
Array. Spells with the array tag have several sub-spells. When preparing a spell with the array tag, you
must choose one spell of the array (each of which may have their own spell levels and different effects).
Auras. These spells emit an aura within 15 ft., and typically remains for a few minutes. If the creature falls
unconscious, the aura dissipates, and is otherwise considered an active and beneficial spell (unless it is
debilitative). A character can only benefit from one at any given time (their choice), and may be dispelled as
normal.
Blessings. This array includes beneficial spells that are activated by consuming half your movement, and
may target yourself or an ally. A creature can have only one blessing active on them at any given time, with
most blessings active on a duration of five minutes (and are thus mostly useful for one encounter). These
are considered beneficial spells.
Channel. These spells modify concentration spells, and require the investment of one action every round of
focusing on the target of the spell. If the caster cannot invest the required actions, the spell is not dispelled,
but does not take place until he does. Above the required action, the spellcaster cannot move faster than
half their speed. As for all concentration spells, this spell is broken if concentration is lost.
Debilitate. These are damaging spells that target one creature, and typically have multiple effects. The
caster may then activate the spell’s abilities as a reaction on the target’s turn, affecting their combat
prowess.
Invigorate. These are beneficial spells that target one creature, and otherwise act as debilitate effects.
Seals. These are personal spells (with a target of ‘you’) that are also cast as part of your movement
(consumes base half movement, cannot be used if already spent). A creature may be under the effects of
one seal at any given time, and most seals have a duration of one minute. Seals may be released (termed
judgment or release), and impose the additional effect specified under the spell. These are considered
beneficial spells. Only paladins may cast seals. Death Knights may cast seals, but only those marked as
runic spells.
Shield. These spells benefit from several priestly abilities.
Strikes/Shot: These spells cost a bonus action to activate, and otherwise act on an attacker’s melee or
ranged attack several times before expiring, modifying it appropriately. The user can otherwise declare
when to use them per action, or to withhold the effect until before the end of the duration. These are
considered beneficial spells. Shot spells are strike spells, but are restricted to ranged weapons. All shot
spells belong to the hunter spell list.
Totems. These relics cast specific spells they are imbued with as a reaction from the caster. Totems
usually remain for one minute, and require a reaction to activate each round. They can be moved with a
bonus action (maximum speed is equal to the caster’s speed).
Totems have 7 AC, and hit points equal to double the level of the caster. Destroying a totem by reducing it
to 0 hit points deactivates the effect and dispels the spell as normal. Whenever the totem is subjected to a
saving throw, they use the caster’s bonus.

You create two large glowing bursts of violet
force, sending them to a single enemy within the
range. The two intertwine, striking the enemy and
creating an explosion of force, dealing 6d4+6
damage to the target, and to all creatures and
unattended objects within a 10-foot radius sphere
of him.
Said creatures are also pushed back 5 feet

Abjuration
Casting Time 1 action
Components V, S
Range 60 feet (one fiend or celestial)
Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute
One fiend or celestial you target must make a
Charisma saving throw. On a failure, you shunt
them with abjuration magic to a transitionary
state, causing them to become ethereally
unstable (gaining resistance to nonmagical
damage and reducing their movement speed by
half). At the end of the duration (if you were able
to concentrate for an entire minute), they are
banished to their original plane of existence.
Heightened. If heightened to level 4, you can
target other creatures as well as fiends and
celestials. When banished, you can instead
banish their transformed forms to another
dimension, where they disappear (are shunted
into another dimension), where they remain in a
harmless dimension until the end of the spell's
duration (or until you fail to concentrate on the
spell). In this dimension, the creature can return if
it possesses the ability to plane shift back (in
which case it returns in the space it was banished
from), but is otherwise unharmed.
Banshee’s Curse [PRS 3, WRK3]

You place the banshee’s regretful curse on a
target. For the next minute, and whenever they
roll any d20 check, you may declare with a
reaction that they have any of the following
penalties:
1. That they have disadvantage on the roll.
2. They must roll a d100. On a 33 or lower,
the action fails. On a result of 34 or higher,
the action succeeds as normal.
Upon being used three times or the duration
ending, the curse is broken.
Heightened. You may gain one use of curses
above normal per spell level beyond 3rd
(maximum 5 at level 5).
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Bind Creature (Construct, Celestial,
Elemental, Fiend, Undead) [DRD 1, MGE 1,
PRS 1, SHM 1, WRK 1]
Abjuration
Casting time 1 hour
Range 60 feet
Components V, S, M (a gift or focus; see below)
Duration 24 hours
With this spell, you attempt to bind a creature
your service. You can bind a creature from the
type related to your spellcasting list (see conjuring
and binding under your class).
The target creature must be within range for the
entire casting of the spell. At the completion of
casting, the target must make a Charisma saving
throw (typically, the creature is first conjured into
the center of an inverted magic circle to keep it
bound, is held with chains, or is willing). On a
failed save, the target creature is bound to serve
you for the duration. If the creature was
summoned or created by another spell, that
spell's duration is extended to match the casting
time of this spell. Conjured creatures are entitled
a saving throw once the spell begins to be cast to
escape the binding attempt.
The CR of the creature(s) that can be bound in
one casting is equal to 1 per spell level (can be
split between multiple creatures). At any given
time, regardless of how many bound creatures
you have, you cannot have more than two times
your CR in bound creatures. Excess creatures
are automatically freed, and may choose to return
to their normal plane (of conjured) or remain in
the plane they are currently in. You are always
aware of how tenuous your hold is on your bound
creatures and whether a creature breaks free or
not. A creature of higher CR than normal may
allow the spell to affect it (if willingly bound).
A bound creature is not treated as conjured (not
restricted from conjuring others, is not
commanded telepathically, not automatically
friendly to you or your allies, and cannot be
dispelled with dispel magic and similar effects). Its
death is considered to be a true death (and
therefore grants XP), and its presence is treated
as a character (and therefore gains XP), and
must follow your instructions to the best of its
ability due to the power of the spell. You might
command the creature to accompany you on an
adventure, to guard a location, or to deliver a
message. The creature obeys the letter of your
instruction (as it is bound), but if the creature is
hostile to you, it strives to twist your words to
achieve its own objectives. Depending on the
instructions, this spell binds the creature to one of
the below conditions.
● Bound for a Task. If the creature is bound
to complete one task, it is automatically
freed (and usually returns to its plane of
Version 2.4
origin) after the task is complete. The
creature is still bound to travel back to you
and report its success before leaving. If
you are on another plane of existance, it
waits until it is certain that you will not
return beyond reasonable doubt, at which
point it leaves a message and then leaves
to its original plane. If bound for a task, the
spell requires a material component equal
to 25 gp per CR of the creature (or total
CR if multiple creatures with one spell). If
CR 5 and above, the cost doubles per
increment of 5 levels (up to 400 per CR at
level 20 and above).
● Day of Service. If the creature is bound to
serve for a duration, it is automatically
freed after the duration ends (regardless
of its original mission). It may choose to
remain longer, but it is otherwise freed
from obedience. If bound for a duration,
the creature requires one-fifth the cost of
binding for a task increment if the duration
is a day (if above a week, one-half the
cost per week; if above a month, it
requires the entire cost; and if above a
year, double the entire cost every year).
Creatures whose interests align with yours may
half or waive the payment entirely. A creature
already bound can still be subject to this spell,
which requires three opposed spellcasting checks
to break the first binding (or repel the attempt).
Special. Binding any undead requires only the
payment for a task (even if there is no task other
than serving you) in necromantic ingredients and
onyx to permanently reanimate the dead. After
the spell's duration ends, however, the undead
automatically break free and may be re-bound
with an action. Bound undead retain their
telepathic connection as if conjured (within line of
sight or 100 feet, whichever applies).
Note. This spell is also known as enslave undead
and enslave demons (when used against undead
and fiends, respectively).
Heightened. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot higher than the maximum CR of the
spell by 1 level, the duration is increased one
step; moving one increment every level above
maximum: 24 hours - 3 days - 1 week - 1 month -
1 year.
Blessing Array [PLD 2+]
Transmutation [Array, Blessing]
Casting Time special (half movement)
Components: V, S
Range Touch (one creature)
Duration 5 minutes
You gain one blessing of the below array.
● Blessing of Kings [PLD 4]. You or any
target creature gains +2 to all d20 rolls
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
until the duration of the spell ends. This
applies to attack rolls, saving throws, skill
checks, and ability checks.
● Blessing of Might [PLD 2]. You gain
supernatural awareness of the
vulnerabilities in your enemies. You gain
+2 bonus to damage rolls. While under the
benefits of this blessing, your pupils dilate,
but are not any more sensitive to light than
usual. This does not stack with Aura of
Might or similar effects.
● Blessing of Protection [PLD 3]. This potent
blessing protects the target. The target
gains the effect of a Divine Shield spell.
However, the spell ends for the target if
they attack or cast any spell.
● Blessing of Sacrifice [PLD 2]. This potent
blessing creates a spiritual connection
between you and the subject. Each time
the subject takes hit point damage, half of
it transfers to you. If you and the subject
move out of range of each other, the spell
ends immediately. The halved damage is
not counted as if resistance, but does not
stack with it. The target and you must be
within clear, unobstructed vision and
within 15 feet of one another.
● Blessing of Wisdom [PLD 2]. This
powerful blessing aids spellcasters, aiding
their mana expenditures in battle. For the
duration of the blessing, the base spell
cost for spells cast by the target cost 1
less mana (minimum 1).
Heightened.
● Blessing of Might. For each level above
2nd, you add +1 to the damage roll
increase, to a maximum of +5.

You shunt yourself dimensionally, teleporting
yourself to an unoccupied spot in range. You
cannot teleport yourself to an area you cannot

Duration Channeling, up to 1 minute
You whisper the magic words, and a cold light
emanates from your hands. At your command,
snow, sleet and hail batter your foes. The spell
calls down freezing sleet, ice shards and heavy
hail down on the caster’s targets, dealing 1d4
points of slashing damage, and 1d4 points of cold
damage to the area and every creature in it per
round of concentration.
The heavy snow obscures all sight, including
darkvision, beyond 5 feet. Forty feet high, a cold
cloud materializes, imposing the same
obscuration to sight, and dealing the same
damage to all creatures that fly through or under
it.
Heightened. Per level above 3rd, add one dice to
the cold damage, and the level afterwards, add
one dice to the slashing damage (2d4 cold, 1d4
slashing at 4th level; 2d4 cold 2d4 slashing 5th

Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute
Choose a willing creature you can see within
range. Until the spell ends, the target is immune
to fear, has +2 to AC, advantage on Agility saving
throws, and can make an additional action on
each of its turns, and gains temporary hit points
equal to your spellcasting modifier at the
beginning of every of its rounds.
This action can only be used for the attack (one
weapon attack only), Dash, Disengage, Hide, or

bone per level. Each bone may be used as a
reaction to perform one of the following.
● Grants resistance to you for one hit.
● Grants you advantage versus a hostile
spell effect.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
When all bones are used, the spell ends.
Heightened. For each level above 2nd, you gain
an additional bone (and by extension, use).
Brilliance Aura [MGE 7]
Transmutation [Aura]
Casting Time 1 action
Components V, S
Range 15-foot-radius sphere, centered on you
Duration One minute
You surround yourself with a pulsing aura of
cerulean energy. This aura grants crystalline
thought to any two allied spellcasters in range
and empowers them to cast their spells with less
effort.
For the duration of the aura, and so long as a
creature is both friendly and within range, the
mana spell cost for spells cast is reduced by 1
(minimum 1).
Capture Essence (Ritual) [MGE 2, SHM 2, WRK
2]
Abjuration [Ritual]
Casting Time 10 minutes
Range Touch
Component V, S, M (Focus crystal that costs 50
gp)
Duration Instantaneous, or ten minutes until
discharge
You draw an essence-capturing magic circle or
seal that can remain up to ten minutes before
discharging. While the seal is active, any creature
you designate that is reduced to 0 hit points within
10 feet of the seal (or any surface you inscribe it
upon) must make a Spirit saving throw or else
have its essence absorbed by the seal in
question. The creature must have a CR equal to
or less than 4.
Depending on the creature type, the focus crystal
can perform multiple things.
Humanoid, Beast, Fey, Monstrosity, Dragon: Soul
Gems, which fuel Necromancy devices
Undead: Dark Gems, which fuel for Necromancy
devices, can be consumed
Elemental: Elemental Gems, which fuel
elemental-powered devices
Outsiders: Quintessence, which can be onsumed
(special, see below)
Construct, Plant, Ooze cannot be targeted by this
spell.
Special. If a creature is absorbed into the seal,
and is later targeted for a raise dead,
resurrection, conjure creature (if it was named), a
divination (if targeting a specific person, such as
Sending), or similar targeting effect, the caster
must make an opposed Intelligence check to the
Version 2.4
caster of the Capture Essence spell (or a DC 15
check, whichever is higher or possible). If the
check fails, the spell fails as well, and the attempt
cannot be repeated unless the device that holds
the essence was used at least once (such as
drawing one use of a necromancy device).
Special II. If the spell is cast ritually with
expending double the normal mana cost, the
target of the effect suffers disadvantage to the
essence-capturing, and any attempts to release
the essence have disadvantage.
Special III. Quintessence restores 1d6 hit points
per CR of the outsider it absorbed by a living
creature, or 2 mana points per CR. This is a
mana-restorative effect.
Heightened. The maximum CR of the creature
whose essence is absorbed increases by 2 per
level beyond 2 (to a maximum of 18).
Carrion Swarm [DRD 3, WRK 3]

Duration Instantaneous, up to 1 minute, or three
uses (whichever comes first)
A swarm of bats, poisonous spiders, flying
beetles and other such vermin extends out from
your hand to bite and savage your opponents.
Each creature in a 30-foot cone must make a
Stamina saving throw. A creature takes 6d6
nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing
damage on a failed save, or half as much
damage on a successful one. The target is also
infested for one minute. While infested, you may
declare with a reaction any of the following effects
on the target.
● The target takes 1d6 poison damage.
● The target is considered poisoned until the
beginning of their next round.
Special I. If the target dies while under effects of
this spell, unused debilitate uses conjure 1
Carrion Beetle. The DM has the Carrion Beetle’s
statistics.
Special II. If caster is a corporeal undead, the
swarm can tear flesh off the target and rejuvenate
the caster. When using a debilitate use, the
caster regains 1d8 hit points per use at the end of
the spell’s effects (when the debilitate uses end).
The target must have a minimum CR of ½.
Heightened. The initial damage increases by 1d8
for each level above 3rd, and the secondary
damage increases by 1 dice every two levels
above 3rd.
Chaos Bolt [WRK 1]
Evocation
Casting Time 1 action
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Range 60 feet (one creature)
Components V, S
Duration Instantaneous then 1 round
You throw a greenish-violet bolt of crackling
chaotic energies. Make a ranged spell attack on a
target within range. Targets struck by this bolt
suffer 2d8 fel damage. If the target is subjected to
a debilitate spell in the next round, they suffer
disadvantage to their saving throw versus the
initial effect.
Special. This spell costs half mana.
Heightened. When you cast this spell using a
spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage
increases by 2d6 for each slot level above 2nd.
Combustion [MGE 5, WRK 5]
Evocation

Range 60 feet (one creature)
Components V, S
Duration Instantaneous
Special Requires target to be under a debilitate
spell effect
You combust the target, setting off any and all of
your damage over time debilitation effects. The
target takes 2d8 fire damage, and you may use a
single reaction to calculate all damage resultant
from your active damage over time effects on the
target, discharging all of them at once. Non-
damaging effects do not stack, but damage does.
Consecration [PLD 2]
Evocation
Casting Time 1 action
Range 30 feet (15-foot radius sphere)
Components V, S
Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute
You call upon the Holy Light to sanctify an area,
dealing 2d8 holy damage to all enemies of the
Light within this area of effect. If the enemy is a
fiend or undead, they take 50% extra damage
and also move at half normal speed.
Creatures aligned or who follow the Light take no
damage. Creatures that are not opposed to it take
half damage. For the duration of the spell, the
area of effect is treated as hallowed (as per the
spell Hallow, but cannot bind an extra effect to the
area).
Heightened. The damage increases by 1d8 per
level.
Conjure Creature (Animal, Construct,
Celestial, Elemental, Fey, Fiend, Undead)
[DRD 1, MGE 1, PRS 1, SHM 1, WRK 1]
Conjuration
Casting Time 1 hour (or 1 action if animal, fey, or
plant)
Range 60 feet Components V, S (and M), see
below
Version 2.4
Duration Concentration, up to 1 hour
You summon a creature from the type related to
your spellcasting list (see conjuring and binding
under your class).
The creature appears in an unoccupied space
you can see in range. The creature is friendly to
you and your companions for the duration. Roll
initiative for the creature, which has its own turns.
Once conjured, the creature can telepathically
understand any and will execute your commands
(no action required by you). The telepathy only
functions if you maintain line of sight to the
creature (undead can additionally be given
commands if within 100 feet, whichever applies).
The creature has a CR of 1 per spell level. If the
conjured creature is an animal, fey, or undead,
you may also divide the CR between multiple
creatures (such as doubling the number of
creatures and dividing the CR by 2, or tripling and
dividing by 3, etc., to a minimum of CR 1/8).
Dispelling one creature dispels the entire spell,
however.
It obeys any commands given, so long as they
don’t violate its alignment or nature. If you don’t
issue any commands to the creature, it defends
itself from hostile creatures but otherwise takes
no actions.
A conjured creature cannot conjure others even if
they have spells that normally allow them to, and
despite them obeying their conjurer’s commands,
they take their own actions and are controlled by
the DM (such as which spells or ability to use,
etc.).
Once the duration of the spell ends or the
creature is defeated, it is dismissed to its original
plane (or becomes inanimate and resumes the
object’s purpose in the case of undead, plants,
and constructs). If your concentration breaks
before the duration ends and you do not use your
action to dismiss the creature, it becomes
independent in its actions, and is controlled by the
DM until the duration of the spell ends (typically,
undead and elementals rampage, constructs and
plants act like objects, fey and animals defend
themselves and seek refuge, and celestials and
fiends promote their far-reaching aims).
Note. Depending on the creature conjured, the
spell’s school changes (transmutation with plants
and constructs, or necromancy with undead).
Heightened. For every spell level above 1st, the
CR of the creature conjured increases by 1.
● Special (Components). If the creature
conjured is natural (an animal or fey), the
spell also requires a material component
or focus that is related to the conjured
creature. Fiends and celestials require an
obedience or sacrifice as a focus (such as
a page of a holy book or a drop of blood
as a material component, or a ritual circle
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
as a focus); elementals require elemental
presence as a material or focus (burning
incense for air, sulfur/phosphorous or a
bonfire for fire, a body of water for water,
etc.), while constructs, plants, and undead
require an object as focus (such as a
nearby couch to transmute into the
construct, a tree for a plant, or a corpse
for the necromantic powers to animate
into).
● Special (Permanent Dead). When
animating undead, you may choose to
make the animation permanent instead of
temporary. If you do so, the undead obeys
commands up to 24 hours before it breaks
free and the connection is severed. You
may re-cast this spell and re-bind the
undead to your will (they are entitled a
Spirit saving throw to avoid being
enslaved), so long as the target(s) are
within the CR threshold. You cannot have
more undead animated than your level in
CR. Additional undead are automatically
freed (see Special III). To creature
permanent undead, you must cast this
spell in a cursed or blighted area or at
night, and spend 25 gp per CR in
necromantic materials (black onyx, exotic
herbs, saronite ore of Northrend, carved
skulls, miniature heads). If the creature is
larger than Huge or is incorporeal, the
price is quadrupled (100 gp per CR).
● Special (Plant and Construct Focus).
When animating a construct or plant, the
focus object must not be harder than iron
or be sophisticated or hold anything within
(such as a locked door or chest, a gadget,
or a vehicle for constructs, or a tree that
holds a house within), and it must be as
large as the construct (a wooden table for
a Wood Golem, or a pile of armor for
Animated Armor). If the construct or plant
is destroyed, the magical energies draw
the remains back to where the original
object stood and attempt to reform the
focus (though it looks damaged).
Conjure Elemental Totem [SHM 3]
Conjuration [Totem]
Casting time 3 rounds
Range 60 feet
Components V, S
Duration 1 hour
When you cast this spell, the totem both casts
and concentrates on a level 1 Conjure Elemental
spell, with the elemental appearing
instantaneously and remaining so long as the
totem stands (or until the duration ends). Since
the totem is concentrating on the spell, this allows
Version 2.4
the caster to maintain concentration on another
spell (including a conjure elemental spell).
Special: A shaman cannot have more than one
conjure elemental totems active at any given
time.
Heightened. When heightened any number of
spell levels, the Conjure Elemental effect is also
heightened by the same number of spell levels.
Corpse Explosion [DKN 2, PRS 2]
Necromancy
Casting Time 1 reaction
Range 30 feet (10-foot-radius sphere)
Components S
Duration Instantaneous
Reaction: A corpse is within 30 feet of you.
You may use your reaction to suffuse a nearby
corpse with fel energies, filling it with so much
corruption that it explodes then and there. The
corpse explodes, dealing 2d6 fel damage, and
2d6 poison damage to all creatures within 10 feet
of it, inflicting the poisoned condition for one
minute.
Creatures affected are entitled an Agility saving
throw to half damage and negate the poisoned
condition.
An exploded corpse is desecrated and difficult to
raise, and requires that they be healed up to half
the damage dealt by corpse explosion. A corpse
cannot be targeted more than once with the same
spell.
Heightened. You may deal an additional 1d6 fel
and 1d6 poison damage.
Cripple [DKN 5, MGE 5, PRS 5]
Necromancy
Casting Time 1 action
Components V, S
Range 60 feet.
Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute.
You cripple any living target within range. Make a
ranged spell attack. On a success, the target
takes -2 to AC and to Agility saving throws, can’t
use its reactions, and may make either an action
or a bonus action every turn (not both).
Regardless of the creature’s abilities, it may only
make one melee or ranged attack on its turn, and
they deal only half damage with weapon attacks
that use Strength or Agility.
If the creature attempts to cast a spell with a
casting time of 1 action, roll a d20. On an 11 or
higher, the spell doesn’t take effect until the
creature’s next turn, and the creature must use its
action on that turn to complete the spell. If it can’t,
the spell is wasted. At the end of each of the
target’s turns, it can make a Stamina saving throw
against the spell. On a success, the spell ends.

spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target
is affected by the spell, taking 2d6 fel damage.

Abjuration [Curse]
Casting Time 1 action
Range 60 feet (one creature)
Component V, S
Duration Concentration, up to 1 hour
Upon casting this spell, you must succeed on a
ranged touch attack to affect a target. On a
successful hit, you may curse them with
vulnerability to the elements. The target suffers -2
on saving throws on spells that deal direct
damage or debilitate effects
Curse of Tongues [WRK 3]
Enchantment [Curse]
Casting time 1 action
Range 60 feet (one creature)
Components V, S
Duration 1 hour
You target one target with the curse of tongues,
stealing their voice and causing them to speak in
no other language than the dark tongue of
Eredun. On a failed Spirit saving throw, the target
is cursed, causing them to speak only Eredun.
Any spell that has a verbal component requires
double the normal time to cast. If the target is a
good-aligned character, they take 1 point of
Psychic damage whenever they speak Eredun.
This damage is inflicted once per round.
Special. Due to the effect being temporary, there
is no risk of losing Spirit points by being forced to
speak in Eredun. Creatures that can speak
uncorrupted Eredun are immune to the effects of
this spell.
Cyclone [DRD 3, SHM 3]
Evocation
Version 2.4
Casting Time 1 action
Range 60 feet, in a 10-feet-wide, 30-foot-high
cylinder.
Components S, V
Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute
You target one creature to be affected by a
powerful cyclone of rising winds. The creature,
once affected, is entitled an Agility saving throw to
be unaffected and be moved out of the cylinder
radius (to any direction chosen). If the character
cannot move away, it is affected regardless, but
takes half damage from any falls or cyclone
damage.
The creature targeted rises vertically so long as
you are concentrating on the spell, and remains in
the middle of the cyclone (15 feet in the air). At
the end of each round, the creature may make
another Agility saving throw to escape the
cyclone, falling out of it and halving fall
damage.The creature cannot move away unless
they can fly and succeed in an Acrobatics check
against your spell DC. If they attempt to cast
spells, they are distracted, and all attacks made
by them are made with concealment from the
winds. One creature can be held by the cyclone
at any given time.
You may use your action to drop the original
target creature and lift another one, or launch the
original creature from the cyclone with the
cyclone’s full force. Dropping a creature forces
the original target to suffer fall damage from its
midair height (15 feet for medium creatures, or
1d6 fall damage) and subjects another within the
cyclone’s area of effect to being lifted by the
cyclone, while launching the target raises them to
the double their midair height (30 feet for medium
creatures, or 3d6 fall damage) and drops them
from that height to any area within 15 feet away.
A successful Agility saving throw when hurled
halves the fall damage and drops the creature 5
feet away from the cyclone’s area of effect.
You may use your movement to move the
cyclone to another area and combine that with
lifting a new creature or hurling an old one.
Depending on the creature’s size, its original
height midair might differ. This affects the fall
damage the creature takes. Small and Tiny
creatures suffer damage as if they fell 10 and 20
extra feet (or 1d6 and 2d6 extra, respectively) if
hurled, while.
Size Midair Height
Tiny 30
Small 20
Medium 15
Large 10
Huge 5
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Heightened. You may target another creature in
your cyclone effect and increase the midair height
by 5 feet per every two spell levels above 3rd. All
creatures must be at least 10 feet within reach of
one another to be affected in an ongoing cyclone
effect.

Structures. The spell deals normal damage to
any structure in contact with the ground when the
spell is cast, and every round until the spell ends.
Structures typically have 40 hit points at the
ground floor, and 10 hit points less per each
successive floor. Typically, it takes one minute of
damage to reduce a building’s floor to rubble with
this spell.
A collapsing structure damages nearby creatures
within half the structure’s height. Said creatures
must make an Agility saving throw or else take
5d6 bludgeoning damage, and is knocked prone,
and is buried in the rubble, requiring a DC 20
Strength (Athletics) check as an action to escape.

depending on the nature of the rubble. On a
successful save, the creature takes half as much
damage and doesn’t fall prone or become buried.

for its type.
Heightened. For each level above 1st, you may
drain 10 additional hit points per level.
Special: The spell may be prepared under a
different set spell slot to restore the caster’s mana
instead. This is called the Dark Ritual spell
instead.

2. The target takes only 2d4 fel damage, but
is considered poisoned until the beginning
of their next round.
3. You may cancel out a dispel effect. If you
do this, you cannot also damage the
target.
If the creature dies while under the effects of
demonic doom, its corpse is destroyed, and a
column of fire appears, dealing 18d4 damage
(half fire, half fel) in 10 feet of the corpse. A
doomguard is summoned on the spot of its death,
and it remains for a minute. The doomguard is
friendly to you and your companions for the
duration. Roll initiative for the doomguard, which
has its own turns.
The doomguard requires your concentration to
remain active, and obeys any verbal commands
you issue it (no action required by you), as long
as they don’t violate their alignment. If you don’t
issue any commands to the doomguard, it
defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise
takes no actions. The DM has the doomguard’s
statistics.
Special. A doomguard is only summoned if the
targeted creature is of CR 2 or higher.

absorbed hit point maximum is reached. If the
shield manages to absorb all damage from the
effect, you are protected against any secondary
effects. If subjected to a poison or disease, you
are unaffected, and the shield loses a number of
hit points equal to half the DC. If you are affected
by a non-damaging spell, reduce the shield’s hit
points by 3 per spell level taken--if it absorbs all
the damage, you are immune to that one spell

Casting time 24 hours
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Components V, S, M (herbs, oils, and incense
worth at least 1,000 gp, which is consumed)
Range Touch
Duration Until dispelled
You touch a point and infuse an area around it
with holy (or unholy, ancient, or elemental) power.
The area can have a radius up to 60 feet, and the
spell fails if the radius includes an area already
under the effect a hallow spell. Depending on
your casting class, you can rely on one power.
Druids rely on the power of ancients; priests can
rely on holy or unholy power; paladins rely on
holy power; death knights rely on unholy power;
and shamans rely on elemental power. The
affected area is subject to the following effects.
First, celestials, elementals, fey, fiends, and
undead can’t enter the area, nor can such
creatures charm, frighten, or possess creatures
within it. Any creature charmed, frightened, or
possessed by such a creature is no longer
charmed, frightened, or possessed upon entering
the area. You can exclude one or more of those
types of creatures from this effect.
Second, you can bind an extra effect to the area.
Choose the effect from the following list, or
choose an effect offered by the DM. Some of
these effects apply to creatures in the area; you
can designate whether the effect applies to all
creatures, creatures that follow a specific deity or
leader, or creatures of a specific sort, such as
ores or trolls. When a creature that would be
affected enters the spell’s area for the first time
on a turn or starts its turn there, it can make a
Charisma saving throw. On a success, the
creature ignores the extra effect until it leaves the
area.
● Bloom (Ancient power only). The area
blooms of plant life. It gains 100 gp worth
of herbalism materials, or can support
large trees. This can be even used in
hostile environments (such as deserts or
in the Outland), but it is more easily
dispelled (dispeller gains advantage to
dispel).
● Courage. Affected creatures can’t be
frightened while in the area.
● Darkness. Darkness fills the area. Normal
light, as well as magical light created by
spells of a lower level than this spell can’t
illuminate the area.
● Daylight. Bright light fills the area.
Magical darkness created by spells of a
lower level than this spell can’t extinguish
the light.
● Energy Protection. Affected creatures in
the area have resistance to one damage
type of your choice, except for
bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing.
Version 2.4
● Energy Vulnerability. Affected creatures
in the area have vulnerability to one
damage type of your choice, except for
bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing.
● Elemental Activity (Elemental power
only). The hallowed area is attuned to
elementals. It is treated as an inverted
magic circle for the purposes of binding
elementals. If convinced to perform a task
that serves the elemental powers, you
gain advantage to Charisma checks to
convince them, and the gold cost for the
spell is reduced by three-fourths.
● Everlasting Rest. Dead bodies interred in
the area can’t be turned into undead.
● Extradimensional Interference. Affected
creatures can’t move or travel using
teleportation or by extradimensional or
interplanar means.
● Fear. Affected creatures are frightened
while in the area.
● Silence. No sound can emanate from
within the area, and no sound can reach
into it.
● Tongues. Affected creatures can
communicate with any other creature in
the area, even if they don’t share a
common language.

duration. Roll initiative for the parasite, which has
its own turns.
The parasite requires your concentration to
remain active, and obeys any verbal commands
you issue it (no action required by you). If you
don’t issue any commands to the parasite, it
defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise
takes no actions. The parasite uses the statistics
of any creature you can summon with the Conjure
Creature spell two levels below the parasite spell
(or a CR ¼ creature if 2nd level).

Choose one shot of the below array that you can
cast.
● Arcane Shot [HTR 2]. Your shots are

force, dealing their damage in arcane
damage, plus an additional 1d3 points of
arcane damage. If the creature you
successfully shoot has the benefits of a
beneficial spell, it is also subjected to a

make an ability check versus a spell level
of 1 or above). This dispel effect cannot
dispel a spell level higher than that of
Arcane Shot.
● Black Arrow [HTR 3]. Your shots are
transformed into missiles made of fel
energy. The shot deals an additional 3d4
points of fel damage to the target. If a
creature is killed by this strike, they are
animated as per the spell Animate Dead
(spell level 1). This raises the target from
the fresh corpse. The killed creature is not
raised if they are normally immune to the
effect. Knowledge of this shot is typically a
secret, and is usually used by the
Forsaken, the Scourge, and ruthless
independents.
● Concussive Shot [HTR 2]. Your arrows
are destructively concussive. Targets hit
by this shot spell must make a Stamina
saving throw or else take two of the
following penalties until the end of their
next round (the penalty is chosen by you).

saving throws.

○ Can use either an action or bonus
action, and cannot make more
than one attack every round.

effect until the creature’s next turn,
and the creature must use its
action on said turn to complete the
spell.
● Counter Shot [HTR 1] You may use your
reaction to shoot a creature attempting to
cast a spell. This deals damage normally,
and imposes disadvantage on checks to
concentrate on the spell when taking
damage.
● Scorpid Shot [HTR 2]. Your arrow is
enchanted with a venomous agent. If you
strike an enemy with this hit, they are
poisoned. The effect remains for one
minute. On a successful Stamina saving
throw, the enemy negates this effect.
● Searing Shot [HTR 1]. Your shots are
infused with searing flame. They deal
+1d6 fire damage.
● Stopping Shot (HTR 1). If you use this
shot as a held action, this deals damage
normally, and reduces the creature’s
move speed to 0. On a successful
Stamina saving throw, their speed is
instead reduced by half.
● Tranquilizing Shot [HTR 1]. Your shot are
enhanced with a sleeping agent. If you
strike an enemy with this hit, roll 5d8. If
the total number is equal to or less than
the target’s current hit points, they fall
unconscious for one minute. A sleeper
may be awakened if taking damage or
when targeted with an action (like shaking
or slapping them). Undead and creatures
immune to being charmed are immune to
this effect. A creature may roll a Stamina
saving throw to reduce the duration of
sleep to one round.
● Venom Shot [HTR 1]. Your arrow is
enchanted with a poisonous agent. If you
strike an enemy with this hit, you deal an
additional 1d8 poison damage. This
damage is halved on a successful
Stamina saving throw.
● Viper Shot [HTR 1]. Your arrow is
enchanted with an anti-magic agent. If you
strike an enemy with this hit, they lose 1d2
mana points. For every mana point lost,
the target takes 2 points of Arcane
damage. This damage is halved on a
successful Spirit saving throw.
● Wing Clip Shot [HTR 2]. Your arrow is
enchanted to strike a creature’s hamstring
or movement joint. If you strike an enemy
with this hit, they take an additional +1d6
damage, have their speed reduced by 10
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
feet, and can’t take reactions until the start
of their next turn.
● Wyvern Shot [HTR 3]. Your arrow is
enchanted with a debilitative agent. If you
strike an enemy with this hit, you reduce
the target’s maximum hit points by 3d4 for
one hour. This damage to hit points is
halved on a successful Stamina saving
throw. A creature cannot be affected by
this more than once at any given hour,
and when the duration ends, their
maximum is restored. If a creature’s
maximum is reduced below their current
hit points, the excess is treated as
temporary hit points (if the maximum is
restored, these temporary hit points return
to be actual hit points).
Heightened.
● Arcane Shot. The strike’s damage
increases by 1d3 and the dispel magic
effect increases by 1 level per level above
2nd.
● Black Shot. The strike’s damage
increases by 1d4 per each spell level
beyond 3rd. The spell level also increases
by 1.
● Concussive Shot. The duration remains
for one round more per level above 2nd.
At the end of the target’s round, they are
entitled another save to end the
concussive effect.

damage (chosen during casting) per level
above 1st.

stone’s resurrection takes -1 to all rolls until they
take a long rest (stacks up to -5, after which the
soul stone does not function).
Heightened. You create an additional soul stone
for each casting per two levels above 3rd.
Soul Well [WRK 5]
Conjuration [Ritual]
Casting Time 1 action
Range Self (5 mile radius sphere)
Components V, S
Duration 1 hour
You create a soul-well, which links any creature
who has a soul stone to you. If a creature dies
and revives itself via soul stone, they can be
teleported to the Soul Well (their choice),
emerging from it without their gear (and typically
covered with an ectoplasmic cover). This is a
teleportation effect, and it is blocked by normal
spells that prevent teleportation.
Heightened. For each spell level above 5th, the
range of the soul well increases by 1 mile.

Soulshatter [WRK 4]
Enchantment
Casting time 1 action
Range 60 feet (20-foot radius sphere)
Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute
You release a wave of regret and sorrow that
washes over everyone in the area, imposing a
heavy feeling of depression and sorrow. All
targets in the area must make a Charisma saving
throw or else lose its ability to feel motivated or
compelled to fight, causing them to stop fighting.
This spell suppresses fear and charmed effects,
as well as all morale bonuses until the spell ends,
causing the targets to become indifferent to
everyone else. If the targets witness their friends
or allies being harmed by you or your allies, they
gain another saving throw versus this effect, but
will otherwise remain as it was.
Spirit Animal [SHM 2]
Transmutation
Casting Time 1 action
Range Self
Components V, S, M (cocoon)
Duration Concentration, up to 1 hour
This spell transforms you into a creature most
attuned to your spirit. The transmutation lasts for
the duration, or until you drop to 0 hit points or
die. The new form is a beast whose CR is less
than or equal to your level. You replace the
beast’s mental attributes with your own, as this
new form does not affect your alignment or
personality. You assume the hit points of the new
form, and when you revert to your original form,
you carryover any excess lost hit points to your
new form. The new form cannot cast spells,
speak, or take actions that require hands or
speech. Your gear melds into your new form, and
you cannot benefit, use, activate, or wield any of
your equipment.
This spell acts otherwise like the Polymorph spell,
and is subject to the same restrictions.
While transformed, your form is translucent, and
you may use an action to grant yourself light
obscurity until you attack.
Spirit Infusion [SHM 3]

Casting time 1 action
Components S, V
Range Personal (Self)
Duration. Concentration, up to 1 minute

maximum duration of the spell increases by 2
minutes.
Spirit Link [SHM 3, WRK 3]
Abjuration
Casting Time 1 action
Range 30 feet
Components V, S
Duration Concentration, up to 1 hour
You may target up to four creatures within 30 feet
of one another with this spell (yourself included),
and all of which are deeply linked in a network of
abjuration magics. Whenever one of the linked
creatures is damaged, they share up to 5 hit
points of damage taken by one of the creatures in
the spirit link among the rest, distributing the
damage evenly amongst them all. This requires
one reaction every round to activate, though the
damage is totalled before distributed.
The damage, once shared, is considered untyped
damage, which bypasses immunities,
vulnerabilities, and resistances. If any ally is
reduced to 0 hit points, the spell ends
prematurely.
Heightened. You can share an additional 5 hit
points per two spell levels above 3rd.
Spirit Link Totem [SHM 5]
Conjuration [Totem]
Casting Time 1 action
Components V, S
Range 30 feet
Duration Concentration, up to 1 hour
You plant the totem in the ground anywhere
within 30 ft. All willing allies creatures are linked
with the Spirit Link spell, up to a maximum of four
creatures at once. Whenever a creature is
damaged, you may opt to use your reaction to
share damage or keep it unshared, or use your
reaction to change the targets of the spirit link.
This spell otherwise acts as a totemic version of
Spirit Link.
Special Unlike most totem spells, this is a
concentration effect.

 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Evocation [Strike]
Components S, V

stabilized.
After one minute, you are returned to life with 1 hit
point remaining. If you didn’t die, you may retain
this property by concentrating. This spell can’t
restore any missing body parts. You can delay
your return up to ten minutes, but after that point,
the spell ends, and you remain dead.
This spell may be detected as if a normal active
spell, and if it is dispelled, the effects dissipate,
and you remain dead as normal.

oils and herbs worth at least 500 gp, which must
be spent before casting. This remains until the
spell is cast at least once.

crashes down on that point. Every creature within
a 5-foot radius of that point must make an Agility
saving throw. A creature or object takes 3d6
concussive damage and 2d6 arcane damage on
a failed save, or half that on a successful saving
throw.
Special. This spell requires line of sight to the
sky, although it does not require a specific time. If
the spell is cast at night, the shooting star deals
Version 2.4
additional holy damage instead of arcane
damage.
Heightened. When heightened to level 7, you
can call three meteors instead of two. This
increases by one meteor for every 2 spell levels
beyond 7th (3 at level 7, 4 at level 9).
Stasis Trap [SHM 1]
Conjuration [Totem]
Casting Time 1 action
Components V, S
Range 30 feet
Duration 10 minutes
You plant the totem in the ground anywhere
within 30 ft. It is visible for 1 round, before
becoming invisible for the rest of its duration.
Once invisible, it is effectively active. If an enemy
creature moves within 10 ft. of the totem during its
activity, you are notified of the presence.
If you use your reaction to send the mental
command, the totem explodes into a shower of
sparks easily seen from up to a mile, lighting up
the square (and creature) for one round. All
creatures 10 feet away from the totem must make
an Agility saving throw or be stunned for until the

line. Each creature in the line must make a
Stamina saving throw. On a failed save, a

 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
until your next turn. On a successful save, it takes
half as much damage and isn’t blinded by this
spell. Undead and oozes have disadvantage on
his saving throw. You can alter the line of
radiance as an action on the beginning of any
turn until the spell ends. Your hand emits bright
light in a 30-foot radius and dim light for an
additional 30 feet. The light is treated as sunlight.

These act as caltrops. Creatures walking on the

Components V, S
Range 30 feet (one creature)
Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute
The caster imbues his target with the endurance
and energy of the undead. The transmuted
creature moves and acts quicker than normal.
Choose a willing creature that you can see within
range. Until the spell ends, the target’s speed is
doubled, it gains a +2 bonus to AC, it has
advantage on Agility saving throws, and it gains
an additional action on each of its turns. That
action can be used only to take the Attack (one
weapon attack only), Dash, Disengage, Hide, or
Use an Object action.
For each round of acting under the spell, the
target of this spell takes 2 (1d4) points of
damage. This damage bypasses resistances, and
is untyped. A Stamina may be rolled, but a
successful save removes both the benefits and
penalties of the spell. When the spell ends, the
target can’t move or take actions until after its
next turn, as a wave of lethargy sweeps over it.
Special. This spell is also known as Curse of
Recklessness when cast as a warlock spell, and

effects, or extinguishes an effect that sets

you cannot cast the spell again until one hour
passes.
Heightened. For each spell level above 2nd, you
gain an additional ball of water.

creature that is the process of casting a spell.

DESCRIPTION
Grenade Fuse Depending on the fuse of a grenade, they can explode on various times. An instantaneous
fuse costs nothing, while others cost 1 sp per fuse. A character may also make fuses that are pre-designed
to explode after a number of rounds (determined at the time of crafting).
● Instantaneous fuse. The grenade explodes at the end of its user’s turn
● Delayed fuse. The grenade explodes after 1d4 rounds, starting at the end of the user’s turn.
● Long fuse. The grenade explodes after one minute, starting at the end of the user’s turn.
Powder Horn Carrying two pounds of gunpowder, this fire and water-resistant horn is required almost
always for a tinker on the go.
Powder Keg Containing fifteen pounds of gunpowder, this keg is very flammable, but it is a sure sight for
sore dwarven eyes. If exposed to flame, the barrel explodes for 10d6 concussive damage in a 100 feet
sphere, with a DC 10 Agility save to half damage. If left exposed, the damage is instead fire damage.
Gunpowder deals 1d6 fire damage to each creature in 10 feet per 1 pound of mass. Setting an ounce of
gunpowder to burn brightly, shedding bright light in 30 feet for 1 round, and dim light in the same radius for
another round, before extinguishing. Exploding gunpowder cannot deal more than 10d6 at any time (with
10 pounds and upwards of mass), but its range does increase by 10 feet for every pound.

DESCRIPTION
Attack Claws These claws may be attached to a hand, and allow for a user to perform somatic components
without occupying the hand. They are usually favored by orcish shamans who enter melee after conjuring
elementals or placing totems. This is a simple weapon.
Bayonet This dagger-like blade can be attached to a firearm, allowing it to make melee weapon attacks. If
making a successful melee attack with a bayonet, the firearm user may spent a bonus action to shoot the
target, gaining advantage to the attack roll (instead of the normal disadvantage they would gain from using
a ranged attack while adjacent to an enemy). Anyone proficient with daggers and firearms is proficient with
a bayonet.
Greathammer This iconic paladin weapon is favored by the Order of the Holy Light. A character proficient
with mauls is also proficient with greathammers after a week of training.
Moonglaive This exotic weapon has three dagger-like blades jutting from its sides. Uncommonly seen but
easy to train with, Moonglaives are favored by the night elves of Kalimdor. This is a simple melee weapon.
Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

Spiked Chain A 10-foot chain marked with a large hook, this spiked chain is a dangerous and rare weapon
to see in the battlefield.
Sword, Two-Bladed Typically used only by elven swordsmen of great agility, the two-bladed sword is
almost iconic of the high elven military Two-bladed swords can be used to attack as if using two weapons,
despite being a single weapon that is used with one hand. A character proficient with longswords is also
proficient with two-bladed swords after a week of training.
Syringe. This needle is specifically-designed to inject injury poisons, plagues, and offensive potions into
targets who are stabbed with it. After a successful attack roll, you may use a bonus action to inject the
target with the contents of the syringe.
Totem, Tauren Large, unwieldy, but very intricately-made, tauren totems are iconic of the tauren peoples.
Warglaive. This night elf weapon is a crescent-shaped blade about 4 feet long with a hilt in the center of the
back edge. Night elf demon hunters favor these weapons. A character proficient with shortswords is also
proficient with warglaives after a week of training.

Mana Stone Rare 1 lb. Increases mana regeneration, can be consumed (4th

DESCRIPTION
Amulet (Spell Shield) This acts as a 3rd-level
counterspell spell, but the effect must include you
as a target.
Book of the Dead This ancient, musty tome is
decorated with inlaid bones from various
creatures. The cover and spine are made from
dried skin stretched and treated to remain flexible.
The ink used to write the magical words and
runes inside is blood drawn from the veins of
living creatures killed as sacrifices when the book
was completed. Activating this book requires
tearing out its spine and destroying it utterly.
When the spine is torn, the pages disintegrate,
and the spells bound in the book are unleashed,
animating up to two medium or small skeleton or
zombie warriors (equipped with shields and
swords) and two medium or small skeleton
archers (equipped with bows and twenty arrows
each). So long as you possess the spine, you
may command the undead mentally with a bonus
action as long as they are within 60 feet of you.
This otherwise acts as a 5th level Animate Dead
spell. After 24 hours, however, regardless of what
happens, the skeletons disintegrate and lie still,
and the Book is utterly consumed.
Crystal Ball This sphere of green glass is inlaid
with a golden base, and may be pointed at a
direction to see distant events up to a mile away
as clear as if one is adjacent to it. When
activated, the crystal ball may scry up to any point
of sight within a mile that you can see, or allows
you to see an obvious location that is unfamiliar to
Version 2.4
you and is obstructed by an object (such as
behind a corner, behind a door, below a
trapdoor). This orb functions as long as you can
expend a bonus action, up to a maximum of ten
minutes. The orb creates an invisible magical
sensor on the location it observes, which can be
seen if observers can see invisibility or have
truesight, and cannot be attacked or interacted
with (though it can be dispelled as a 3rd level
spell).
Demonic Figurine This onyx figurine is told of in
legends as powerful artifacts send by the Burning
Legion to pave the world for its inevitable return.
Featuring a baleful demon with claws
outstretched and a single hoof raised, the figurine
can be pointed to a creature, unleashing a ray of
doom. This is treated as the Demonic Doom spell,
and the figurine maintains channeling until the
entire duration has ended. The figurine
possesses malevolent cunning, and uses the
spell to wreak the most devastation it could
before it is ended. Destroying a figurine
unleashes the Doomguard instantaneously for its
full duration.
Hearthstone This stone is given to every
adventurer who leaves his city. A user may have
only one hearthstone at any given time, and it is
attuned as a Teleport Circle. Requiring one
minute to activate, the hearthstone teleports the
user to where they last called home. When used,
it takes a day to recharge. An adventurer may
alter his hearthstone’s location to any indoor
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

building he has spent more than 24 hours in,
which replaces the teleport circle’s location.
Horn of Stormwind This lion-emblazed horn
grants (when blown as a action) all creatures
within 20 feet the benefits of a Paladin’s Devotion
Aura (Proficiency +2) for one hour. This does not
stack with a paladin’s aura, but does still cancel
out a Death Knight’s Aura of Abandonment, and
can be suppressed for 1 minute with a Dispel
Magic spell if targeting the horn.
Mana Stone This cerulean-blue semi-solid stone
is nearly translucent, and shines with an internal
blue light. While the stone is in the possession of
a caster, their passive mana regeneration (such
as from resting) increases by 25%. This boost
stacks atop the increase from resting near a
mana fountain. A mana stone might be crushed in
a caster’s fist, restoring up to 3d4 mana points
instantaneously and destroying the mana stone.
These stones are said to be shards of enchanted
runestones that are dipped in mana fountains, but
such rumors are unsubstantiated, as the secret of
creation is in the elusive hands of the most
talented infusionists.

Weapon and Armor Infusions

Weapons may be enchanted with the secret knowledge of infusionists. Infusions are rarely found, and
infused weaponry common to the Warcraft universe are stated below. The infusion type can be added by
expending the rarity and adding the following ability.

Infusion Name Rarity Properties

Storm Hammer Uncommon Extra thunder damage 1/proficiency, returns (See below)
True Moonglaive Uncommon Special Can bounce 1/proficiency per round.

DESCRIPTION
Storm hammer (Wildhammer Dwarf Attunement) This weapon acts as a normal light hammer, but deals
one extra point Thunder damage per Proficiency of the user on impact. When thrown, a storm hammer
returns at the same round, and may be used again.
True Moonglaive (Night Elf Attunement) This weapon acts as a normal moonglaive, but it gains the ability to
bounce. A bounce allows the user to attack another creature within range of the first one, or return to the
user’s hand. The enchanted moonglaive may bounce once per proficiency of the user. A non-night elf may
use this weapon, but requires training and sanctioning by the night elven Sisterhood of Elune.

Infused Ammunition
A bullet, arrow, or thrown weapon can contain a shot effect if it is prepared specifically to hold it with the
Infusion skill. This costs the normal cost for a bullet (1 gp per 20 bullets, or 1 sp per 2 bullet), plus one-fifth
the infusion dust quantity for a weapon of that quality (and hence, 5 pieces of uncommon ammunition is
roughly equal in value to a single uncommon weapon or armor or infusion when distributing treasure).
Special. Despite the names below, infusions can be used interchangeably between ammunition such as
arrows, crossbow bolts, bullets, and more. For the purposes of spellcasting ability rolls, treat the bonus as
+4.

Ammunition Rarity Effect

Arcane Axe Uncommon As Shot Array [Arcane Shot], or +1d3 arcane damage and dispel
magic (1st level)
Fire Arrow Uncommon As Shot Array [Searing], or +1d6 fire damage

the Prismatic Blade, was forged by dragons and granted to the night elves during the War of the Ancients.

scarves.
Uncommon. If possessing one set piece, dim light doesn’t impose disadvantage on your Spirit (Perception)
checks relying on sight.
Rare. If possessing two to three set pieces, climbing doesn’t halve your speed, and you can make a
running long jump or a running high jump after moving only 5 feet on foot, rather than 10 feet.

armor).
Very Rare. If possessing all set pieces, the horns of the raiment remain in wild shape, granting you a
natural attack that deals 2d6 damage. Before going into a wild shape, you can designate three spells to be

natural attack or be cast by touching the target with your horns. After exiting a wild shape, your next conjure
creature (plants) spells costs half normal mana.

Judgement Armor
Armor (plate), variant (requires attunement)

justice must be done. The commanding, faceless aspect of justice and judgement is represented by this
armor, which is worn by paladins acting as inquisitors and executioners as they deliver sentence upon the
enemy.
Clad in black, red, and gold, paladins in this full-body armor cut an imposing figure. The armor is a

Legion who deal with biological and chemical warfare, as well as living members of the Cult of the Damned

the gear collects and stores plagues within itself, offering these plagues as an added level of defense.

to wear them.
These violet robes are threaded with gold and blue that have high collars, and a black skullcap lined with
silver thread.

DESCRIPTION
Alarm Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion on an area that is no larger
than a 20-foot cube and imbibing a drop of it, the
imbiber is mentally notified whenever a Tiny or
larger creature touches or enters the area where
the potion was poured for up to 1 mile. If a bell is
dipped into the alarm potion, the bell rings
(audible within 60 feet for 10 seconds) instead of
the imbiber receiving a mental notification. The
imbiber can designate creatures that do not
trigger the alarm.
Alchemist’s Acid By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, this bubbling acid acts as the
Acid Splash cantrip, dealing 1d6 acid damage to
one or two creatures or objects that are 5 feet
within range to one another. If the alchemist is 5th
level, the damage becomes 2d6, and is increased
by an additional 1d6 per every five levels.
Alchemist’s Fire By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, a blast of fire acts as the
Firebolt cantrip, dealing 1d10 fire damage to one
creature or object. If this strikes an unattended
flammable object, it catches on fire. If the
alchemist is 5th level, the damage becomes
2d10, and is increased by an additional 1d10 per
every five levels.
Alchemist’s Frost By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, a blast of cold acts as the
Frostbolt cantrip, dealing 1d8 cold damage to one
creature or object, and reducing their speed by 10
feet for one round. If the alchemist is 5th level, the
damage becomes 2d8, and is increased by an
additional 1d8 per every five levels.
Antimagic Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, this releases an anti-magic
matrix, acting as the Antimagic Shell spell,
targeting the imbiber or the target of the potion.
This remains for 2d4 rounds.
Frost Armor Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, a protective sheet of ice
surrounds the target, acting as the Frost Armor
spell for up to 1 hour, granting the character 5
temporary hit points. If a creature hits the
protected character with a melee attack while
they retain temporary hit points from the above
effect, they either take 1 point of cold damage per
point of damage they dealt to the temporary hit
points, or lose 10 feet of speed for 1 round.
False Life Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, a protective infusion of
necromancy imbues the target, acting as the
False Life spell for up to 1 hour, granting the
character 1d4 + 4 temporary hit points.
Healing Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, a healing agent acts as the
Holy Light spell, healing 1d8 + 4 damage to a
living creature, or dealing 1d8 + 4 holy damage to
an undead or fiend.
Life Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or pouring
this potion on creature that has died within the
last minute, a restorative agent acts as the
Revivify spell, restoring the creature to 1 hit point.
This does not work against creatures that died of
old age, and cannot restore body parts.
Light Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or pouring
this potion on an object no larger than 10 feet in
any direction, this potion creates a bright glow,
acting as the Light cantrip. The light shines
brightly for 20 feet, and dimly for 20 feet beyond
that. This remains for 1 hour.
Mana Potion This cerulean-colored potion
requires that the potion-maker invest their own
mana (up to a maximum equal to the spell level).
When an imbiber drinks the potion, they regain
the same number of mana points the alchemist
infused. Depending on the level of the creator, the
mana potion has the following classifications:
Minor Mana Potion (which restores 3d4 mana),
Moderate Mana Potion (restores 3d8 mana), and
Greater Mana Potion (which restores 3d12
mana). The costs are 1,000 gp (requiring level 5),
2,000 gp (requiring level 10), and 4,000 gp
(requiring level 20), respectively. As all mana-
restoration effects, this can be used once per
hour.
Mind Scream Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, a blast of psychic resonance
acts as the Vicious Mockery cantrip, dealing 1d4
psychic damage to one creature and imposing
disadvantage on their next attack. If the alchemist
is 5th level, the damage becomes 2d4, and is
increased by an additional 1d4 per every five
levels.

one creature. This has no effect on undead or

minute (costs a reaction to use) that can either
heal 1d8 life or grant resistance to any one
bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing attack that is
nonmagical.
Sparing Potion By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring/imbibing this potion, a soothing agent
acts as the Spare the Dying cantrip, stabilizing
constructs.
Smoke Bomb By throwing (range 20/60) or
pouring this potion, the mixture releases a thick
smoke cloud that acts as the Fog Cloud spell,
which creates a 20-foot-radius sphere of fog
centered on where the mixture is. The sphere
spreads around corners, and its area is heavily
obscured. It lasts for 2d4 minutes or until a wind
of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles
per hour) disperses it.

DESCRIPTION
Bomb, Big One This powerful bomb deals 5d6

imposes disadvantage for all rolls to creatures

targets only the original target, or the 5-foot
square the bomb was thrown at.
Bomb, Smoke This bomb deals 1d6 concussive

4d6 concussive damage to it and any creature
within 20 feet. It requires a DC 15 save to half
damage.
Flashbang This bomb deals no concussive
damage, but imposes disadvantage for all rolls to
creatures affected by it for one round with an
explosion of light and noise. A successful saving
throw negates the condition.

and has a ringing blast (same sound as an
explosion during the entire flight). Targets who fail
their saving throws to halve damage against this
rocket have a 50% chance to be either deafened
or blinded for 1 minute. A successful saving throw
negates this effect.
Rocket, Siege This rocket is designed to drill and
destroy fortifications. Upon impact, it deals 10d6
concussive damage to the target and to any
creatures and items close to them (typically
destroying them). As it is designed against
objects and structures, it deals only 2d6 damage
to creatures.

DESCRIPTION
Boomstick Known as a favored dwarven weapon,
boomsticks are intricately designed with special
markings to denote the company, issue date, and
a small piece of war advice in dwarven.
Boomsticks have a capacity of 2 bullets, and can
be reloaded by up to 2 bullets with swabbing.
Blunderbuss A larger, heavier, and easier-to-use
boomstick, the Blunderbuss can be altered to
shoot a cone of bullets in a 15-foot cone, dealing
2d8 damage, with an Agility save to half. As
Blunderbusses do not require attack rolls, they do
not require proficiency to use, and can be used
while adjacent to an enemy without penalty. A
Blunderbuss is also known in some circles as a
shotgun.
Gun, Machine This gun deals 3d8 piercing
damage to any number of creatures standing in a
5-foot wide line 30 feet away. This requires an
Agility save to half damage. Machine guns do not
require training to use.
Longrifle. Favored of the iconic dwarven sniper,
longrifles have great range, great damage, and
great practical use. They are however expensive,
and difficult to deploy ideally.
Pistol, Flintlock Known as a good backup
weapon, the flintlock pistol does not deal a lot of
damage compared to its heavier counterparts, but

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition

both can be used easily (as they are light
weapons).
Pistol, Revolver A great backup weapon, the
revolver balances good damage with a great
ammunition reserve. Very reliable.
Siege Cannon This heavy piece of artillery can
blast through walls like paper (dealing 6d12 to
walls and fortifications due to the siege
modification). This acts as a huge rifle, and
increases in dice to d12.
Sniper Rifle A moderately powerful and long-
range precision silenced weapon.
Automatic Crossbow. This crossbow acts as a
heavy crossbow that deals 1d10 piercing
damage. This does not have the loading quality. It
has a malfunction chance of 1-3.
Pneumatic Crossbow This crossbow acts as a
light crossbow that deals 1d8 piercing damage. It
is silent when shot. It has a malfunction chance of
1-3.

DESCRIPTION
Antimagic Ray When used, this wand-like gun
shoots a purple anti-magic ray. If this strikes a
spellcaster, it burns 1d4 mana points from them,
as per the spell Mana Burn. Elementals required
for the anti-magic ray device are pure mana
elementals (such as mana wyrms and arcane
elementals).
Army Knife When used, this device summons all
tools an adventurer needs, such as a hammer, a
pair of scissors, etc., just short of Alchemy and
Poisoning tools, and includes 60 feet of spider-
silk rope. It requires a minute to summon up a
single use of this army knife, and fifteen to return
one charge in (which is independent from the
fifteen minutes it takes to recharge it). It may also
deal damage as a normal dagger.
Auto-Factory Usually employed by goblin tinkers
in war, this large object unfolds to resemble a
horse-sized factory. The whirrs and whistles
inside are indicative of some process within. The
factory remains active for 2d4 minutes, and
churns out a Challenge 1/4 construct
(Mechanostrider statistics) once every five
rounds. The constructs conjured by the auto-
factory are controlled by the user of the device,
but the user can command only one construct
every round, while the others repeat the same
action given to them until the factory stops

Version 2.4
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
working. The auto-factory is costly, however. For
each construct created, the factory requires one
vial of phlogiston, and 5 lb. (or 50 gp) of raw
materials.Caltrop Bomb When used, this box
releases a four bags of caltrops into the air to fall
over an area within 30 feet, filling a 10-foot
square area. Any creature that enters the area
must succeed on a DC 15 Agility saving throw or
stop moving and take 1 piercing damage. Until
the creature regains at least 1 hit point, its
walking speed is reduced by 10 feet. A creature
moving through the area at half speed doesn't
need to make the saving throw. Once used, this
can be refilled with replacement caltrops. There is
a 75% chance that a used bag of caltrops can be
used again.
Flamethrower The flamethrower can be aimed
and used with an action. If no malfunction occurs,
it releases a 15-foot cone of flames. Targets in
the cone must make an Agility saving throw. On a
failed save, the targets take 3d6 points of fire
damage, or half the amount on a successful save.
The flames ignite any flammable objects in the
area that are not being worn or carried.
Flashlight The flashlight can be aimed and
activated with an action. If no malfunction occurs,
it emits a 20-foor radius glow of bright light, and
emits 20 feet of dim light after that. If directed, it
turns instead into a cone with a range of 60 feet
of bright light, and 60 feet of dim light afterwards.
A charge is used once per hour.
Fog Machine When used, this box creates a
billowing sphere-shaped cloud of fog that spreads
on a 20-foot radius. The area is heavily obscured,
and it remains for an hour or until a moderate or
stronger wind disperses it (10 mph+). The cloud
of fog is centered on the fog machine, or can be
shot out as a large cloud to appear in another
area 120 feet away. This is fueled by a tapped air
elemental spirit or an elemental air crystal.
Frost Gun The frost gun can be used with an
action, creating a brilliant blue freezing ray up to
30 feet away that creates a 10-foot radius
explosion of frozen air to emit from the location of
the ray's impact. All creatures hit by the ray or in
the explosion's radius must succeed on a
Stamina saving throw or else take 4d8 points of
cold damage, or half of that on a successful
saving throw. If the ray or the radius strikes or
includes a body of water or a liquid with similar
freezing points, the ray freezes the liquid within its
active radius to a depth of 6 inches for 1 minute.
Creatures that were swimming or that were in the
water at the moment must succeed on an
additional Strength saving throw as an action
against the DC of the device or be restrained.
After 1 minute of being conjured, the ice shatters.
Version 2.4
Special. The gun can freeze damaging surfaces
(such as fires and liquids) that deal less damage
on average than the gun itself.
Ice Cannon This mini-cannon shoots a large
shard of frost that deals 1d10 piercing damage in
60 feet. On the area of impact, the shard
explodes, dealing 3d6 cold damage to all
creatures in 5 feet from the point, with an Agility
save to half damage.
Jumper Cables This backpack may be hooked up
with any creature that died within one minute. If
activated without an issue, the creature is revived,
and returned to life with 1 hit point and no mana.
This cannot return a creature that died of old age.
This gadget requires 300 gold pieces’ worth of
focus crystals per use of activation.
Locator This eye-like gadget can sense creatures
that approach within 20 feet of its position
whenever a creature of the size Tiny or larger
enters. The locator, once activated, remains
active for 2d4 hours, and has a chance to
malfunction at the end of each hour. The locator
may either let out an audible alarm that can be
heard clearly within 60 feet, or send a single
mental ping to the one who set it up.
Mind Remote This strange-looking hat has a
hypnotic pattern attached to it. When the gadget
is active, the mind remote can focus on any
person within 30 feet. They must make a Spirit
save or else be charmed for one hour, or until you
or your companions do something harmful to it. It
gains advantage to the save if you or your
companions are harming it. It takes a minute of
tinkering to provide another up another charge for
the gadget.
Mortar This heavy machine is typically set on the
floor. When loaded with a pint of oil and a bomb
or grenade, it launches it further than a normal
creature could, for an arc up to 90 feet away, and
30 feet high. When the bomb lands, it explodes
as typical for its type. On the 5-foot square area
of impact, however, the bomb lands with a
powerful explosion, adding 2d6 concussive
damage to the bomb’s normal damage. A mortar
may be loaded with up to eight pints of oil, and
may be used again after 1d4 rounds.
Pulley Gun This hand-cannon can shoot one to
two ropes at opposite ends. Each rope has a
hook at its end, and each extend to up to 90 feet
per action of use. If the hooks target an object,
they attach to it, and can carry up to 140 pounds
of weight. If the hook targets a creature, they take
3d8 piercing damage, and the hooks are
destroyed. A pulley gun has a wheel for transport
along the ropes, and allows for movement at a
rate of 60 feet per round either up or down the
ropes’ ends. A pulley gun that shoots one rope
but can be used twice is known as a mechanical
grappling hook.
 World of Warcraft RPG, 5th Edition
Rocket Boots These heavy boots strapped with a
small backpack may be activated with an action.
Per use, this consumes one pint of oil, and gives
the user a flying speed of 60 feet, usable for one
minute. At the end of the duration, the user falls
unless they are on solid ground. The device cools
down for one minute after it stops being used.
The backpack can hold up to eight pints of oil for
the rocket boots.
Rocket Launcher This heavy machine is typically
set on the user’s shoulder. When loaded with a
pint of oil and a rocket, it launches it further than
its normal range, increasing its original range by
90 feet. This applies to the maximum range it can
launch. A rocket launcher adds 2d6 concussive
damage to a rocket’s normal damage. A rocket
launcher may be loaded with up to eight pints of
oil, and may be used again in 1d4 rounds.
Rocket Launcher, Cluster This heavy machine is
typically set on the floor before the user. When
loaded with a pint of oil and up to four rockets, it
launches them all within their normal range with a
single action. This applies to all the rockets. A
rocket launcher adds +1d6 concussive damage
per rocket used (+1d6 if one rocket, +4d6 if four
are used). A cluster rocket launcher may be
loaded with up to eight pints of oil or phlogiston,
and may be used again in a minute.
Reflective Cylinder. The reflective cylinder is a 2-
foot long, 8-inch thick cylinder that is usually
strapped to the back of the user, and is attached
to a winding mechanism in the user's hand. The
cylinder can be deployed as a reaction when the
user takes elemental damage (damage that is
acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder in nature),
unfurling and countering the elemental damage
with a sheet of specially-treated and reinforced
glass. The user gains resistance to the elemental
damage, and the next time the user hits with a
melee attack on the next turn, the reflective
cylinder reflects 1d6 points of the absorbed
damage to the target of the user's attack. The
character must be able to use their hands or
similar limbs to deploy the cylinder.
Remote This small machine can activate any
mine, gadget, or construct that is keyed to it.
Keying a technological device to a remote takes
one minute and a DC 10 Engineering check.
Using a remote is a bonus action on the
creature’s round, or a reaction outside their
round. Each use consumes one charge of battery
power, and the remote can hold up to eight
batteries at any given time. A remote can activate
a device as long as both of them are within 150
feet of each other. This effect can penetrate
barriers, but 2 feet of rock, 2 inches of common
metal, or a thin sheet of lead.
Sun Gun The sun-gun can be focused and used
with an action. If no malfunction occurs, it
Version 2.4
releases a foot beam of brilliant and wholesome
light that sears all targets in a 30-foot long 5-foot
wide line for 1d4 rounds. Every round, all
creatures that are within the light must make a
Stamina saving throw. On a failed save, the
targets take 3d8 points of holy damage and is
blinded until the beginning of your next turn, or
half the amount of damage on a successful save.
Undead and oozes suffer disadvantage to this
save. At the beginning of your round, you may
redirect the light normally. This sheds bright light
for 30 feet and dim light for the next 30 feet after
that. The light is treated as sunlight.
Trap Launcher This heavy machine can lob a trap
to up to 90 feet, priming the trap on the point of
impact. The trap launcher may be loaded with up
to eight pints of oil, and may be used again after a
cooldown of one minute.
Water Gun The water pump is a 2-foot long, 8-
inch thick cylinder that can hold up to 3 gallons of
any liquid (or 16 quarts). The water pump can be
used with an action to release one quart of liquid
in a line up to 90 feet away, stopping at impact
with the first object. The target must succeed on
an Agility saving throw or else take 1d8
bludgeoning damage on a failed save and a
secondary effect depending on the liquid. A
successful save halves the initial damage and
negates the secondary effect.
● Water. If the liquid is water, attack also
extinguishes flames. Fire-based creatures
or those vulnerable to water take double
damage from this and do not employ any
resistances towards this damage.
● Oil. If the liquid is oil or another flammable
liquid, the user may use a bonus action to
set the liquid on fire as it is released
(necessitating another malfunction check),
setting the liquid is set aflame (regardless
of malfunction). Targets who failed their
save take 1d6 fire damage and are ignited
until they extinguish the flame with an
action and a successful Agility save
(taking an additional 1d6 points of damage
per round until they pass a DC equal to
the gadget's DC).
● Contaminated Water. If the liquid is a
contaminated water or liquid (such as
sewage water), the target must also save
versus any contact, injury, or ingested
poison or disease that is carried by the
water. If using sewage water, the target is
most likely to be contaminated by Filth
Fever, Slimy Doom, and Blinding Sickness
(see Contagion for details, duration 7
days), although other diseases or poisons
may be built into the waters.

Gadgets - Traps
Traps are gadgets that perform a single use. They can be deployed and primed with an action, and they
become active after being primed by one round. Whenever a creature moves to 10 feet or closer to a trap,
it triggers and discharges its effect. The DCs are equal to that of a device.
Traps act like gadgets, but have only one charge, and cost only 10% of the original price. Traps that are
used must be fixed, which costs half the time and cost to make them.

DESCRIPTION
Freezing Trap This trap unleashes a super-compressed blast of cold that freezes the triggering creature for
one minute, and deals 1d4 cold damage to them. While frozen, the target is restrained. A successful
Stamina save halves the damage dealt, and reduces the restraint for one round. A creature may use its
action to break the ice.
Oil Slick Trap This trap spews slippery oil in a 10-foot radius, rendering it into difficult terrain for one minute.
Each creature who enters, is within the radius when the trap is triggered, or ends their turn in this area
must make an Agility save or fall prone.
Immolation Trap This trap burns the triggering creature for one minute, dealing 2d6 fire damage. Over the
next minute, whenever the creature starts its turn, it must roll a d20. On a 9 or lower, the effect triggers
again, dealing an additional 1d6 damage or giving them disadvantage to any next d20 roll. After triggering
twice, the trap’s effects ends.
Wagon Clamp. This trap clamps down on the triggering creature or vehicle for one minute, dealing 1d8
piercing damage to the wheel (possibly breaking it). While captured, the target is restrained. A successful
Stamina save by the vehicle or creature halves the damage dealt and reduces the restraint for one round. A
creature may use its action to make a Strength saving throw to remove the restraining effect. Most wooden
wheels have 5 (2d4) hit points.

Constructs
Constructs and mecha activate for one hour per charge. Constructs and mecha require one minute of start-
up before active.
Both may be activated with an action, or be programmed to begin activation with a contingency (such as
when an enemy enters a laboratory, or if a remote control button is clicked).
