Swords & Wizardry - Book of Options

The Book of Options is a supplement for the Swords & Wizardry Complete Rulebook. It offers 11 new character classes, two new ancestries (Gnomes and Stygians), new spells, new magic items, a revised copy of the Quick Primer for Old School Gaming, encounter tables that include the monsters from Fiends and Foes, and much more!

New character classes include:

The Barbarian, a non-rage-based fighter with wilderness skills and keen senses

• The Bard, loosely based on the Celtic bard

• The Chivalric knight, basically a cavalier for those familiar with older versions of D&D

• The Demon Hunter, a spell-caster with unusual abilities

• The Dwarven Priest, a dwarven cleric-like class

• The Elfblade, essentially a fighter/magic-user

• The Illusionist, casting spells that affect the eye and mind

• The Necromancer, casting spells of death and control

• The Troubadour, an illusionist-thief archetype

• The Warlock, whose spells stem from non-divine powers

• The Wrath-Chanter, a rage-based barbarian class

Everything in this book is optional, but it is a phenomenal resource for Referees and Players who want to expand the horizons of a Swords & Wizardry game!
