Step Up Your Game with the Monster-Breaker!
Thank you to everyone who participated in our latest bonus subclass poll. Once again, the Hive Mind delivered a clear verdict, and we listened.
After two polls covering both class and specialization, the winning combination was Ranger and Counter Action Specialization.
The result is the Monster-Breaker Conclave Ranger, a hunter trained to study, counter, and bring down the deadliest horrors lurking in Vordan. The subclass is complete and ready for play — and it's available exclusively to backers of Spawns of the Mindrender. Please let us know in the comments how you like it!
All backers, regardless of pledge level, can download the PDF right now from the Digital Rewards section of their BackerKit account, which includes both the 2014 and 2024 stats!
But this is only just a minor flourish on the vast canvas that is Spawns.
The Monster-Breaker is an addition to the 24 new subclasses included in Spawns of the Mindrender, alongside new monsters, a web of sandbox locations, magic items, and everything you need to confront Shandar and its terrifying Spawns.
If you're not a backer yet, you're missing out on exclusive rewards like this subclass, useful accessories, the unfolding community content, and an entire madness-infused campaign setting packed with player options and a grand adventure.
Choose from PDF, VTT, Poster Maps, Minis, Hardcover Books, Physical Bundle, Deluxe Box (loaded with exclusive rewards), and becoming an NPC or Legend on our campaign page:

The Subclass Poll Has Concluded
Thank you to everyone who participated in the subclass creation poll. The Hive Mind has spoken.
After the two-part vote covering both the class and its specialization, the winning combination is Ranger with the Counter Action Specialization.
We are now hard at work developing the subclass, officially titled the Monster-Breaker Conclave Ranger.
Built to counter monstrous abilities and bring down terrifying foes through skill, precision, and focused tactics, this subclass will soon be released in PDF format through a future campaign update available exclusively to backers.
Thank you again for helping us create something together. We cannot wait to show you what the Hive Mind has forged.

I'm currently running CotO for a few friends, and we're only able to meet about once a month AT BEST. We're still in Chapter 2/6 for that, and I've got TotS, SotL, and now this lovely campaign setting in the hopper. I can safely say this content will carry me for the foreseeable future. How is everybody else moving through this content? Do you feel like you're having to skip things to make progress? Are you skipping around to whatever is fun? Or are you just taking it slow like me?
