5e - Changelog - Ailas 1
Why did I write everything in english? Because I dislike having 2 languages in one document.
General Changes
THERE ARE MORE CHANGES THAN THIS, BUT THESE ARE THE CHANGES DIRECTLY INFLUENCING YOU, OR THAT ARE GENERALLY GOOD TO KNOW!!!
New Character Sheet
There is a new designed Character sheet to hold all the new information. You can find that on my discord Server or as a PDF in the Signal Group Chat.
Conditions
Exhaustion: There might now be effects targeting Exhaustion. In that case, both Fatigue and Strife are affected.
Fatigue: Now scales from 1-5 instead of 1-10. 1 level doesn’t reduce a d20 roll by 1, but by 2 and for each level of Fatigue, the creatures speed is reduced by 5 feet.
Strife: Now scales from 1-5 instead of 1-10. 1 level doesn’t reduce a d20 roll by 1, but by 2.
Grappled: A grappled creature now has DISADV on attacks against creatures other than the grappler.
Feats
Feat Categories: Now categorized into Origin, Class, General and Skill Feats. Each character gains one Class, General and a Skill feat every 2nd level (See below).
Languages
Language Mastery: Languages now have 3 levels of mastery: Speaking, Reading, Signing. Whenever a character learns a language, they increase that language’s mastery by one level, unless stated otherwise.
Skills and Proficiency
Skill Categorization: Skills are now categorized under the ability scores. They can still be used with different ability scores, but this makes it easier to call for checks.
Expertise Die: Removed. Instead there is a new system for Expertise levels. Simply put: Each point of Expertise equals a +1 in that skill to a max of the associated Ability score or +5, whichever is lower.
Skill Specialties: Removed. This includes Scent specialty for Perception, Swimming for Athletics, Fey for Arcana etc.
Animal Handling: Removed
Breaking: New STR Skill.
Endurance: New CON Skill.
Hold Breath: New CON Skill.
Intimidation: Now a STR Skill, but I will still allow using CHA for it instead.
Medicine: Now an INT check instead of WIS.
Occultism: New INT Knowledge Skill.
Revelry: New CON Skill.
Spellcasting
Spell Lists: Removed Class specific lists, added Occult spell source. Now the 4 Spell sources are: Arcane, Divine, Occult, Primal. Each Class gains access to one of those Spell sources. This might cause additions or removals of spells you currently have access to.
Spell Changes: Too many to list here. The ones relevant for your character are detailed at the end of this changelog.
Spellcasting Foci: Spellcasting Foci now act as weapons with properties and mastery properties.
Ailas Dorric Level Progression
Level 0: Character Creation
Heritage: Human
Intrepid: Renamed to Resourceful. Now grants ADV instead of a 1d4 Expertise die. (Just as we already ruled it, but now it is written as that).
Versatile: Removed (If you benefited from this at character creation, we will just ignore that).
Ingenious Focus: One small change
- Resident Expert: Changed the feature from “minimum 10” to “minimum 8”. This applies to your Arcana.
Culture: Eladrin
Eladrin Weapon Training: Now grants proficiency with all 🗡️Swords.
Skill Proficiencies: Now only Deception, no other choice. (Currently Insight -> Change to Deception).
Creature Type: You are considered a Fey. I can’t find that on your character sheet, so please add this.
Background: Custom
You gain access to one Origin Feat. Normally Backgrounds provide a choice, but you have a custom origin, which means you can just choose one. I think the Fey Touched feat would fit for your character.
No Changes/ We have to talk about this in private.
Destiny: Custom
No Changes/ We have to talk about this in private.
Level 1: Warlock
Class Proficiencies
Spellcasting Focus Proficiencies: New game mechanic. Please choose two 🎩Spellcasting Focus Categories to be proficient in.
Saving Throw Proficiencies: There is now a choice. Currently you simply gain proficiency with Wisdom and Charisma Saves. Now you have a choice: Choose one proficiency of each A and B: (A) Dexterity OR Wisdom; (B) Intelligence OR Charisma.
Skill Proficiencies: The new Occultism Skill was added to the choices here. If you want to reconsider your current choices (Arcana and Nature), you may.
Spellcasting
Spell List: Is now the Occult Spell Source. I added lots of spells, so you might want to look at that.
Spellcaster Table: Increased the amount of cantrips Warlocks learn. This means, at level 7 you now have 5 cantrips instead of 3. Since I removed the Eldritch Blast feature (see below), you might want to take one or more of these cantrips: Eldritch Blast, Eldritch Disturbance, Eldritch Scythe, Eldritch Whip.
Class Features
Beseech Patron: New level 1 feature.
Magical Cunning: Now a level 1 feature instead of level 2.
Pact Boon: New level 1 feature, granting one Pact Boon (Instead of it being an Eldritch Invocation). This is now the source of your Pact of the Blade.

Eldritch Invocations: Removed and turned into Warlock Class Feats.
Pact Magic: Removed and integrated into the Spellcaster Class’ Spellcasting feature.

1d8to both their 🎲Attack and 💔Damage Roll.
