==Class Options==
Both the ''Player's Guide'' and ''Realms Under Shadow'' contain an assortment of new subclasses for the various core classes of 5e.

The [[Barbarian]] has the '''Path of the Rage Channeler''' in the Player's Guide, which is a [[Third Caster]] subclass ala the Fighter's Eldritch Knight, and the '''Path of Ruination''' in Realms Under Shadow, which is a barbarian who focuses on using sheer [[Rage]] to smash through even the toughest defenses. The Player's Guide also has five new totems for the Totem Warrior to use; ''Bull'', ''Caribou'', ''Lion'', ''Seal'' and ''Serpent''.

The [[Bard]] also has two new Colleges; the '''College of Medicine''' in the Player's Guide, which is all about increasing the bard's healing abilities when using the Medicine skill or an herbalism kit, and the '''College of the Mortuary Chapterhouse''', a bardic mourner who specializes in seeing the souls of the departed make their way to the afterlife, from Realms Under Shadow.

[[Cleric]]s? Yep, they get two new [[Cleric Domain]]s in the same way. The Player's Guide offers the distinctly evil-flavored '''Malice''' domain, which is all about wielding poison and inflicting destruction. In contrast, Realms Under Shadow's '''Monuments''' domain is all about the preservation of memory through creating, restoring and even animating edifices and constructs.

[[Druid]]s only get the one subclass, with Realms Under Shadow giving them the Circle of Civilization; an [[Urban Druid]] subclass that has features that literally get more powerful when used in urban environments that they've been hanging around in for at least 8 hours in the last 24.

[[Fighter]]s, in comparison, get lots of love. The Player's Guide has two subclasses; the '''Pikeman''' is a master at the use of a polearm, whilst the '''Witch Slayer''' specializes in battling magic-using foes, obviously. Realms Under Shadow adds a new Fighting Style, the Bloodied Ratel, and three new subclasses; the '''Horizon Archer''' (a Zen Archer type, able to attain impossible feats with a bow), the '''Iron Guard''' (an ultra-tough warrior who focuses on defense over mobility), and the '''Lion Hunter''' (a hardened survivor specialized in battling big beasts and monsters).

[[Monk]]s get two new subclasses, both from Realms Under Shadow. '''The Fivefold Path Tradition''' has a monk choose one of the five virtues they wish to master (Duty, Integrity, Justice, Perseverance, Serenity) and gains features based on that virtue, being essentially five subclasses in one. The '''Sentinel of Sorrow Tradition''' is... well, it's basically a vigilante assassin, who deems a specific group of adversaries to be their Antithesis and focuses on getting better and better at killing them.

[[Paladin]]s get two subclasses, again with one in each book. The Player's Guide gives the '''Council Sentinel''', a paladin bodyguard sworn to the tenets of Service, Courage, Honor and Duty. Realms Under Shadow presents the '''Sacrosanct''', a paladin who doesn't worship the gods but instead gains their power from their unwavering dedication to Doing The Right Thing(tm). This means they don't gain any Channel Divinity powers or bonus spells, but their [[Wisdom]] and [[Charisma]] go up, and they become living weapons against fiends and the undead.

[[Ranger]]s get three subclasses between the two books; two in the Player's Guide and one in Realms Under Shadow. The former two consist of the '''Longbowman''' (a self-explanatory archer), and the '''Shadow Walker''', an [[elf]]-founded (and thus in-setting elf-exclusive) organization of border guards trained in the use of [[Shadow Magic]] to bolster their martial and woodsman's skills. The latter is the '''Wyldling''', a ranger/sorcerer hybrid with an affinity for [[fey]] and [[elemental]] magic.

[[Rogue]]s get only a single subclass, and it's found in Realms Under Shadow; the '''Shinobi''', a [[ninja]]-themed rogue which is supernaturally sneaky and adept at evading detection.

[[Sorcerer (Dungeons & Dragons)|Sorcerers]] also have only a single Realms Under Shadow-located subclass; '''[[Kitsune]] Ancestry''', which also doubles as a generic [[Fey]]-blooded sorcerous origin, with increased charisma when interacting with fey, more spells than normal, some minor shapechanging shenanigans, and resistance to magic.

[[Warlock]]s have the same deal as [[ranger]]s; two subclasses in the Player's Guide, '''Ghost''' and '''Sin Lord''', and one in Realms of Shadow, the '''Flesh Host'''. Ghost patron warlocks are, obviously, a [[necromancer]]-warlock hybrid with a small array of ghostly abilities, including possessing others. Warlocks sworn to a Sin Lord have taken one of the seven sin-themed megabaddies of the setting as their boss, which means their precise powers depend on who they're allied with. The Flesh Host is a variant fiend or great old one warlock who allows their patron to dwell within their own body, turning them into something in between Venom from Spider-Man and a Stand user from [[Jojo's Bizarre Adventure]].

[[Wizard]]s gain the '''Mortuary Arcanist''' in Realms of Shadow, which is a variant [[Necromancer]] that is slightly better at dishing out necrotic damage and who focuses on empowering its own undead minions rather than seizing control over the wandering undead.
