Top 10 5E D&D Homebrew Magic Items by a Factor of Three — Wands
There’s so much homebrew content for fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons found at D&D Beyond! Tens of thousands of entries include spells, races, subclasses, monsters, magic items and pretty much everything you’d expect. We’ve even got a presence over there in what I believe is the only third party creator to achieve. (I do totally mean to toot our own horn 100%) In videos and posts we’ve looked at all the schools of magic, subclasses for each class individually, feats, monsters, races and a variety of other categorizations of 5E D&D content. Now I’m onto magic items and already explored the homebrew armor, potions, rings, rods, scrolls and staffs so now it’s time to take up a trusty staff. There’s enough of the over 3,649 homebrew magic wands at DDB to include something for any character so let’s get into it.
Top 9 Most Wearable Dragons
We recently made a big change! We packed up our merch and migrated to a new platform. Teepublic offers a way better user experience for all of you and for creators too! On top of the improved user experience from either side of the equation the items available there are much higher quality while at the same time more accessible through much lower prices — plus huge sales basically all of the time. We’ve still got a ways to go before all our Nerdarchy branded merch shows up there and in the meantime we’ve been stocking the store with the Zoo Mafia. We’re also huge nerds ourselves and love us some novelty nerdy stuff.
D&D Ideas — Tournaments
Welcome once again to the weekly newsletter. This week’s topic is the tournaments, which we discussed in our weekly live chat. We hangout every Monday evening at 8 p.m. EST on Nerdarchy Live to talk about D&D, RPGs, gaming, life and whatever nerdy stuff comes up. Speaking of tournaments we’ve got a contest of the ages to watch for: in one corner it’s your desire for unique, evocative magic items you’ll be as thrilled to present to characters as they’ll be to discover. In the other corner Nerdarchy’s Deluxe Box Set of 250 Tarot Sized Magic Item Cards for the world’s greatest roleplaying game!

The Nightmare Before Critmas Part 3
Welcome, dear nerds, to our holiday tale.
If you missed acts one and two, catch up; we won’t bail.
Now, my dear nerds, are you caught up on events?
Jolly! Now, sit back as Nerdarchy presents:
Play Your Next 5E D&D Game as a Goblin Bomber
Over at Nerdarchy the YouTube channel when Nerdarchists Dave and Ted pay back the explosives enthusiast who’s faithfully served as our company mascot for nearly seven years with their own bona fide fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons character build. The Goblin Bomber 5E D&D Character Build Guide takes their craft all the way and becomes a volatile presence in any battle. There’s also a really fun connection with another very popular project of ours. Let’s get into it.
Play Your Next 5E D&D Game as a Nature Possessed Warforged
Over at Nerdarchy the YouTube channel when Nerdarchists Dave and Ted tackle our first Eberron fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons character build. Back in 2018 we welcomed Eberron into the 5E D&D space, which included a fan favorite playable race in the warforged. This allowed us to step into Eberron and make the fantastic and fun Nature Possessed Warforged Character Build Guide using a race and a background specific to that wonderful world. Let’s get into it.
11 Huge Threats Posed by Huge Monsters of 5E D&D
I’ve been following up a post about the chonkiest bois in fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons with a look at standout monsters from each size category. Huge creatures follow in the footsteps of the smaller 8 Large and in Charge Monsters of 5E D&D. The top of the size category food chain looms but before reaching those heights there’s a lot of amazing Huge size monsters to consider. Let’s get into it.
Ideas on Running Multiple 5E D&D Campaigns in One World – At the Same Time
Ashes of Ardor is the fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons campaign I’ve been running on Nerdarchy Live every Tuesday night at 8 p.m. ET. Meanwhile Quill & Sword is a 5E D&D campaign I run every other Thursday night during the same time slot on my Twitch channel. Both campaigns take place in my dark fantasy world of Aulmn. Two campaigns, one world setting — infinite possibilities. As Ashes of Ardor comes to a close I want to share some of what I learned running two campaigns in the same world simultaneously. Whether you’re running a premade setting like Eberron, Wildemount or the iconic Forgotten Realms these tips should help with keeping things smooth and copacetic. Fair warning: there be spoilers ahead for both Ashes of Ardor and Quill & Sword.
D&D Ideas — Class
Welcome once again to the weekly newsletter. This week’s topic is the classes, which we discussed in our weekly live chat. We hangout every Monday evening at 8 p.m. EST on Nerdarchy Live to talk about D&D, RPGs, gaming, life and whatever nerdy stuff comes up. Speaking of classes we put together a guide for all the Fifth Edition subclasses we’ve created over the years as part of a FREE bundle. The perfect character for your next game may just be revealed inside!
