Hexblade Patrons (5e)
Hexblades! Bring your warlock's patron to life with these fully detailed patrons! The hexblade is among the most popular subclasses in 5th edition D&D. It's an archetype that provides exceptional role-playing opportunities and excellent mechanical benefits. The hexblade character forms a pact with a sentient weapon - but which weapon? Where are these mighty items with the power to form pacts with characters? What are their goals? What do they expect of the hexblade in return for power? The answers to these questions are here! In this product¸ you'll find descriptions of¸ and statistics for¸ new legendary items. Each is a sentient being with the power to forge pacts with player characters. The item's personality and goals are laid out for the DM¸ providing insight into what kind of individuals will align well with the mighty weapons. I set forth the parameters of a pact each one would make and discuss methods of enforcing that pact. Finally¸ I offer descriptive suggestions of the warlock's features for the DM to use as flavor during play¸ as well as a few alterations to the subclass features that make a pact with each of the weapons different from the others. I hope this product enhances your game and provides the extra depth for hexblade characters many of us have been looking for. If you enjoy it¸ be sure to look for my other titles on DM's Guild.
