A custom lineage is a humanoid, but within that, you can choose a +2 Ability Score Increase of your designation, whether or not you’re small or medium, one feat of your choice, you can even decide between 60 feet of Darkvision or, if you’d rather, a skill of your choice. Well, Tasha‘s allows you to go further, with a custom lineage designed to match your idea of what your character is all about. You want an Elf who, instead of knowing how to use a Longsword, has studied a Greataxe instead? You can do that. Your starting languages and proficiencies can be changed to more accurately suit your idea for what your character can and can’t do. Who you are and where you’re from is in your hands nowīut it’s not just Ability Score Increases that are under player control with Tasha’s. You want a Halfling Sorcerer? A Dragonborn Wizard? You’re free to put your Ability Score Bonuses anywhere that will serve your idea for the character. It removes the old idea that some races were simply worse at certain jobs by dint of their ancestry. All well and good for that Rogue or Bard, but what if you want to play a heavy plate wearing Paladin? You simply ended up playing an Elf Paladin with a +2 to Dexterity, ultimately, even though Dex is a bit of a dump class for Paladins who want Strength or Charisma to fuel their melee attacks or spells and smites.īut with Tasha’s new rules, your Elf can simply take that +2 to Dex and put the bonus in any stat they want, such as Charisma, Strength, Constitution or what have you. If you’re playing an Elf, for example, your Ability Score Modifier is a +2 to Dexterity. Up until now, the way Ability Score Increases have worked in 5th Edition D&D has been pretty restrictive.
Your ability scores can go where you want them You can absolutely do this using Tasha’s, and the new rules it provides for character options. As a result, you can finally play that notorious seafaring Gnome Barbarian pirate with a passion for craft beers. One of the ways Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything changes up character creation in Dungeons and Dragons is by providing more options - ways to create that origin you really want for your character, with custom ability score modifiers, background details, and even skills and subclasses.
