The Arcane Forge | Adept PDF
Added 2025-09-25 15:00:17 +0000 UTCThis 21-page chapter on creating magic items out of rare metals and powerful enchantments is the perfect companion for any GM looking to motivate their 5th Edition players to go explore the wilderness and find the hidden magic goodies within!
Available as a PDF, and as an Obsidian .md file to drop into your SRD vault!
“Old stories tell of a great forge beneath the Narandia Mountains, in the lost halls of Starkheim. Stories of artifacts forged in the heat of the very earth. But I know more than old stories. I’ve seen the forge. I know what can be made there. And if you bring me to it... I’ll show you.”
- Brogan, Blacksmith of Utopia
There’s a great deal of debate as to what makes a forge an arcane forge. Is it the material it is made of, or the place where it is built? The magic woven into it by its maker?
Whatever the answer may be, all that truly matters is this: given time, coin, and the skill to use it, there is no limit to the marvels that you could create at such a forge.
Thanks so much for the support everyone, this is our last Adept PDF for a minute since we're moving onto the BROADSHEETS, a zine we'll be starting in October!
But until then, go grab your issue of the Arcane Forge and give it to your players!

2025-10-31 20:42:59 +0000 UTCOutstanding stuff! This will be very handy. I am curious if it's feasible to have an accessible simplified rule summary for kids to easily understand? It'd be wonderful for my programs

2025-10-18 04:10:44 +0000 UTCI'm confused by the "Determine Rarity" step on Page 29, or rather I'm confused about why the "Altan’s Staff of Exploration" on page 20 has only Very Rare rarity; shouldn't it be Legendary as written? Or is the intent that it's only thought of as "Legendary" when calculating the total costs to craft it?

2025-09-26 09:08:40 +0000 UTCThe Dancing property for magic weapons may have a typo, it doesn’t have any charges/use restrictions. (It can be used over and over) and it seems like it should
