Deep Magic for 5th Edition

Sorry, I saw an "!" symbol in the corner of the post and clicked on it to see if it was something important. It turned red... I really hope I didn't accidentally flag it or something. That wasn't my intent, just wanted to see what it was. I tried to un-click it, but it stayed red. Sorry about that - Admins, don't flag the post please.

I think you are asking about the PDF series that preceded this volume (let me know if that's not the intent).

This version includes hundreds of spells that were not in the PDF series, and also these styles of magic:

Deep Magic: Elven High Magic PDF (5th Edition)
Deep Magic: Ring Magic PDF (5th Edition)
Deep Magic: Shadow Magic PDF (5th Edition)

Thanks so much!

Great question! This is currently available at the Kobold Press store in the Pocket Edition, and the hardcover will be available by July 16.

The artificer is closed content and not available as part of the Open Gaming License. However, the Clockwork school of magic predates the artificer and uses similar themes; there's a list of Clockwork spells in the appendix that would make a decent start for the artificer spell list.

Another option would be to check with the "Kobold Press & Midgard" fan group on Facebook. They've got some useful tools along these lines.

Yes, it includes them, plus a lot of new content (a few hundred additional spells and new subclasses, familiars, etc).

Yes, this is a massive PDF and it is also available as a hardcover book (over on the Kobold Press Store, or at your favorite local game store).

Available now with a sewn, high-strength binding from a traditional print run, at the Kobold Press Store and better local gaming stores everywhere!

Yes, this is 700+ new spells, none of them found in the Player's Handbook.

Not a stupid question at all! Exactly none of the spells or subclasses are specific to the Midgard setting; this is a book for any fantasy setting.

The vast majority of the spells are tied to the core classes. There's a handful that are meant for particular subsystem but it's a vanishingly small number (this is mostly the rune spells and the heiroglyph spells, which are tied to particular feat prerequisities).

The book's development and editing was steered toward making it a resource that does not require any particular setting or any particular flavor of fantasy (it covers everything from dark and villainous to bright and heroic to silly/chaotic and so forth).

It brings a little of those, but as you say, those are somewhat niche. They both do get additional support here!

Yes, it updates a lot of the pre-existing material based on feedback from players and further playtesting. They added some stuff as well, like some new spells and and few other things. If you have the deep magic series, this is a nice but pricey addition. If you don't have have the series, i'd recommend this one for the fine tuning and whatnot. the only things left out are ley magic and clockwork magic archetypes/deities. the clockwork spells are largely included, and there's an updated clockwork spell list for casters that incorporates a ton of time magic spells.

OK thank you!

Can confirm that it compiles the 400-ish spells from the original series, and adds a ton of new stuff (about 300 spells worth). Also familiars, new subclasses, backgrounds, fiendish magic, spell variants, etc.

Did you guys fix the mistakes from the subclasses that got reprinted from "Midgard Heroes Handbook"? If the answer is yes, is there an errata PDF in sight for those that bought MHH?

You would need to be more specific. We fixed a LOT of things in this book.

There's no errata sheet for Deep Magic 5E yet, but we expect to publish one on or before August 31, 2020, on the Kobold Press store.

For example, in my physical copy of MHH, the Justice Domain Cleric gets the "Blade of Wrath" domain spell at level 3, but that one is a 3 level spell and clerics don't get 3rd level spell slots until they reach level 5, thus the cleric learns a spell they can't cast for another 2 levels.

Not particularly interested in the clockwork magic but, like Christopher, I AM interested in ley magic. What additional sources contain that?

That is specific to the Midgard setting, and is available in the Midgard Heroes Handbook and in an upcoming, detailed release covering just ley line magic, spells, subclasses, etc.

That release is now available here on DriveThru as Midgard Magic: Ley Lines:

I picked the midgard-specific ley book up at the kobold web site and it is very much worth the money. Lots of extra content, lots of reworked systems. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
