EN5ider Magazine #1: Folk Heroes
The first issue of the monthly EN5ider Magazine has everything a DM could want to turn a party of ragtag adventurers into legendary heroes. This all-new relaunch of EN5ider is compatible with the 2014 and 2024 versions of D&D, and contains rules articles and adventures for your 5E games.
Get them the enchanted rustic gear they need with 9 new magic items from the Folk Hero's Armory.
Introduce a questionable vigilante against the crown in the form of the "folk hero" John Sleece.
Take on the full Thief of Princes adventure (4–6 PCs of 4th level) to recover the Horn of Matild.
Consider the Bounty Hunter Guilds that try to organize adventuring (sometimes forcefully).
And bust out some player handouts with a Bounty Board filled with encounters and scenarios hyperlinked to previous EN5ider articles.
So, without further ado… please do enjoy this first issue of EN5ider Magazine!
New Patreon Tiers
As part of the transition to a magazine format EN5ider's tiers are being revised.
Your tier will not change. If you are on one of the old tiers, you will stay on it until you cancel—you’ll just receive the same 5 articles you’re used to in the format of a single magazine. New subscribers will choose from one of the new tiers.
We do recommend checking out the new tiers, though. The new HERO tier gets you a print-on-demand coupon you can use to print the magazine at cost, and the CHAMPION tier is just like an old-school magazine subscription—you’ll get the physical magazine mailed to you monthly!
ADVENTURER ($10)
Quick and easy! ADVENTURER subscribers receive a PDF of EN5ider Magazine each month. Each issue features 5 professionally produced, high quality illustrated articles (including a full adventure) for your 5E game!
HERO ($20)
In addition to the PDF of EN5ider Magazine every month, HERO subscribers also receive a voucher to order a physical softcover copy via print-on-demand at cost (i.e. we don’t charge you, you just pay DriveThruRPG for the printing and shipping service).
At this tier you also get our regular compilations, along with at-cost print-on-demand coupons for the physical version! These include PDF books like 65 Enchanted Trinkets, Over The Next Hill, We Ain't Afraid Of No Ghost, Advanced Rules Miscellany, and more. Each is 20–30 pages of EN5ider content revisited and reformatted into a gorgeous themed compilation.
CHAMPION ($25)
If you are keen on the simplest way to get this magazine on your shelf this is the tier for you, and we strongly encourage everyone to upgrade to it. CHAMPION subscribers receive the physical magazine shipped to them every month.
As part of choosing this tier you will be providing us with your shipping address—that way we'll know where to send your physical copy of the magazine to!
You will also of course get a PDF of EN5ider Magazine each month and compilation PDFs.
