The Dungeons and Dragons wiki is dedicated to the creation and dissemination of homebrew material created for all editions of Dungeons and Dragons. We are centered around aggressive quality control and focused on providing homebrew content for many different styles of play. We want to help you find material from our collection that you can use in your campaigns without balance concerns. To that end we attempt to tag each page with a balance point that indicates what sort of games it would be most appropriate in. Please see [[Dungeons and Dragons Wiki:Balance Points]] for a more complete explanation of our balance points.

The ads on the right will go away if you log in. The "what's hot" on the left vanishes after like 10 page clicks. The three wikia links on the bottom will always be there, but they are unintrusive and interwiki links so I find it difficult to care. There's an ad on the top of the main page, but given how Wikia is offering free hosting and support I think that's an acceptable price to pay.

Ranger, Tome

Cliche drow ranger, at your service
The ranger is perhaps one of the most maligned classes in 3.5e Dungeons & Dragons, outdone in most cases by even the fighter and barbarian and most often slapped with the scout’s Skirmish ability as a quick and half-hearted fix. It speaks to the general feeling of apathy surrounding the ranger when it didn’t receive the same kind of badass makeover given by the Tome series to the fighter and barbarian. But now that negligence is gone. As its name suggests, the Tome ranger is intended to slot seamlessly into the Tome series, bringing a different martial character to a party who boasts mobility and a high number of utility options to combat all kinds of foes.
