Maritime Items & Heroes of Wharves and Waves


With Ghosts of Saltmarsh coming out, Thomas asked me for assistance proofreading and updating his Heroes of Wharves and Waves supplement for the Dungeon Master's Guild. I ended up contributing some NPC spell lists and trinkets to the updated product, but I had some items that did not make it in due to space and a few trinket ideas that worked better as common magic items.

So I took a little time and took what didn't make the cut, revised a little and put them all together into a single page Martime Items document with GM Binder, it's completely free and available at the link below:


If you like what is on the Maritime Items page, consider grabbing Heroes of Wharves and Waves. While I am admittedly biased, it has plenty of fantastic material, including a copy of Moby Dick written up as a trinket that I snuck in as well as...

  • 4 new races: the deck-dwelling hadozee, shadowy malenti, proud locathah, and fey skinchangers (both selkie and swanmay).
  • 5 class archetypes and one modification: charm, opportunity, wave, and wealth domains for clerics, undersea option for circle of the land druids, and elemental water arcane tradition for wizards.
  • 6 weapons
  • 2 feats to access water elemental and ship spells
  • 61 spells and supporting options to portray scoundrels of the docks, shipboard adventures, and aquatic adventures to life
  • 17 magic items
  • 12 beasts for wild shaping druids, selkies and swanmays, and beast summoning spells
  • A new trinket table
  • Alternate spell lists for NPC stat blocks, including sample ritual books for PCs to find

If my warlock archaeologist dies in Tomb of Annihilation, I'm going to have my next PC be a Cleric of the Wealth Domain using the rules from Heroes of Wharves and Waves.

RPG Inspiration Twitter Bot List - Sword Names Table

Instead of posting another table of surnames I've made, I figured I'd put this up. I made a list of RPG Twitter Bots I find interesting/inspirational. If you have any suggestions to be added, let me know.

RPG Inspiration Bots - a list by @antag_relations


I'm hoping to have a Magic Sword/Weapon name bot set up later this summer. I've been thinking about the few swords in Thomas' al-Qadim AD&D Church game, like Angel's Fang and Wizard Death. I created a little table to generate Sword names and then couldn't stop myself after, so I started randomly generating thousands of interesting magic sword names that will eventually go into the bot. But for now you can enjoy sword names like "Ghost Shaver" and "Moon('s) Edge".


d20 Sword Name Prefix Sword Name Suffix
1 Foe Wrath
2 Adversary Slicer
3 Spleen Vengeance
4 Death Fang
5 Moon Blade
6 Blood Render
7 Weakling Breaker
8 Gore Shard
9 Shining Wound
10 Silver Shaver
11 Dawn Death
12 King Ender
13 Angel Edge
14 Heart Skewer
15 Ghost Piercer
16 Sharp Slasher
17 Widow's Ache
18 Sir Carver
19 Steel Bane
20 Mountain Tickler



Also, last month I converted my old Zombie Twitter RPG account into a twitter account just for my RPG nonsense, which you can follow at its new handle: @antag_relations
