DND RPG Arcana Unleashed Alt Cover HC (EN)

Arcana Unleashed drops your table into a high-magic society, where legendary spellcasters, rival arcane factions and ancient traditions shape the fate of entire realms. This sourcebook for the D&D system (2024 rules) introduces eight brand-new subclasses: the Arcana Domain for clerics, the Arcane Archer for fighters, the Warrior of the Mystic Arts for monks, the Vestige Patron for warlocks, and four completely reworked wizard traditions (Conjurer, Enchanter, Necromancer and Transmuter). Thirty-three new and revised spells expand every spellbook, including high-level additions such as Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting and Iron Body. The book also details nine arcane factions and six group patron types, ten faction-tied backgrounds, and 25+ feats spanning origin, fighting style, general and epic boon categories. On the treasure side, forty-seven evolving magic items await adventurers, including relics and legendary artifacts whose powers grow alongside the bond a character forges with them. Nineteen magical creatures round out the Dungeon Master's arsenal, from archmage variants for every school of magic to formidable foes. An introductory adventure, Tomb of the Shadow Serpents, lets tables put it all to the test in one to two sessions with level 1 characters. This edition features an alternate cover illustrated by the duo Couple of Kooks, distinct from the standard artwork by Javier Charro, for collectors who like to mix up the look on their shelf.

You'll love Arcana Unleashed if you run or play a D&D campaign and dream of a world where magic takes center stage: mage factions, artifacts that evolve with the story, subclasses built for the arcane. Whether you're a Dungeon Master looking for tools to build a high-magic campaign or a player after a fresh subclass, this sourcebook hands you material you can bring straight to the table.

Arcana Unleashed anchors Wizards of the Coast's "Season of Magic" line, which also includes a companion adventure for level 11-20 characters (Arcana Unleashed: Deadfall, set in the nation of Thay against the lich Szass Tam) and a tactical map pack. The book is framed in-world by the mage Alustriel Silverhand, a well-known Forgotten Realms figure. This particular edition carries an alternate cover illustration, distinct from the standard cover.

Arcana Unleashed was led by designer Amanda Hamon, senior D&D designer at Wizards of the Coast, who also headed development on the companion adventure Arcana Unleashed: Deadfall. Before joining the D&D team, she wrote for the Pathfinder and Starfinder lines, including volumes of the Advanced Races series and several Alien Archive books.

This is not a standalone game: you need the Player's Handbook (2024 edition) and the Dungeon Master's Guide (2024 edition) to use it at the table.
