Without a doubt, many would consider homebrewing to be the most enjoyable part of any Dungeons & Dragons experience, as it allows fans of the tabletop game to forego the rule book and create practically anything their imagination can conjure up, be it races, settings, adventures, items, or more. With this being the case, one D&D diehard recently took it upon themselves to convert almost all of the legendary and unique items found within the Fable and The Elder Scrolls series – including Skyrim – into the game's 5e format.
Not too long ago, a Reddit user that goes by the handle "Gonji89" shared a list of homebrewed Dungeons & Dragons weapons, which includes popular items such as Skyrim's Dawnbreaker shortsword and Fable 2's legendary Wreckager cutlass. Certainly, many of these objects – particularly Auriel's Bow – could give a D&D player an incredible edge no matter what campaign they've decided to take part in.
According to Gonji89, a lot of the objects found within the homebrewed list of Fable and Elder Scrolls crossover items for Dungeons & Dragons still need to be refined and play tested in order to properly reflect the power and limitations of the weapons' actual properties from the original video games. What's more is that with many favorites having been left off – Fable's legendary Sword of Aeons and The Elder Scrolls' Scrolls of Icarian Flight are surprisingly absent – the Redditor admits that after doing some balancing, more will likely be added to the open document, which can be found right here.
All things considered, Fable and The Elder Scrolls are solid video game properties to use as inspirational material for Dungeons & Dragons homebrews, as all of the properties share myriad similarities with one another due to their being rooted in the fantasy-RPG genre. If one wishes to get a tad more outlandish with their next D&D campaign, though, perhaps they should consider using this Pokemon conversion that contains the original 151 Pocket Monsters from the popular Nintendo franchise.
