A D&D Review from Your Supreme Leader at DeathStarInc.com

My loyal minions and fellow adventurers,

As your Emperor, I have many responsibilities: crushing rebellions, maintaining unlimited power, ensuring the Death Star’s thermal exhaust ports are properly secured (learned that lesson the hard way), and yes—playing Dungeons & Dragons. What? You think ruling the galaxy doesn’t leave time for rolling dice? Please. I have people for menial tasks like “actual governance.”

Wizards of the Coast has released their latest Unearthed Arcana playtest material featuring six revised subclasses, and naturally, my Court Wizard delivered them to me immediately. (He knows what happens to those who withhold information from the Emperor. Spoiler: it involves Force lightning and an unfortunate lack of Revivify scrolls.)
