Wealth. Power. Influence. Of all the base factions in D&D Fifth Edition none are as recognizable or relatable as the Zhentarim, a network of evil-aligned wizards, scoundrels, and thieves. Darkhold: Secrets of the Zhentarim is a comprehensive guidebook to all things Zhentarim, from their history and major players, to new class options and spells, and advice for running evil-aligned campaigns.

We discussed using factions in a recent DM Roundtable discussion, and Shadow over Snowhollow would make a great example of using traditional monsters as fleshed-out factions. The tier two adventure involves players in a deadlocked battle between arcane frost giants and necromantic orcs, before taking on (almost) ancient white dragon.

Feats are such a ubiquitous part of D&D that’s it’s easy to forget they’re technically a variant rule. There are already plenty of great feats to choose from in officially published books. Feats Don’t Fail Me Now adds over 40 new feats with a much more humorous, and personable, tone.

Celestials in the D&D universe are typically associated with the gods and other divine beings, and the assimar race. Cosmolyths adds a new race that’s more literally associated with space and space-stuff, like stars, novas, planets, and even the black vacuum of nothingness.

Countries at active war is a common backdrop in many video game RPGS (particularly JRPGs), but a rarity in D&D. Rescue at Brightwell drops the player characters into a military-themed heist mission, tasked with rescuing a valuable spy behind enemy lines.
