Themes to play

  • Gestalt - D&D variant where every character gains 2 classes per level
  • Group Builds
    • All-the-same-class - everyone has to play different builds of the same class, such as everyone picks a different god for their cleric or a different school to specialize in for wizard, or different feat trees for a fighter
    • No-martial - no one can play a +1/level BAB class

  • Paranoia - humoorous, dark humorous, or just dark dystopian sci-fi
  • Unisystem - a d10-centric rules-medium system with a lot of customizability
