[DATA BOUNTY] A5e Missing Resources
The A5e SRD has some more resources that are not in Open5e yet. This is a list of all the resources that are missing and could be added:
Adventurer's Guide
- [ ] Origins
- [ ] Heritage. These are probably species?
- [ ] Cultures. New type of resource for the A5e Ruleset? Or maybe as alternative species / backgrounds anyway? Though they give special abilities like species.
- [ ] Destinies. New type of resource for the A5e Ruleset
- [ ] Adventuring Classes. There are some additional classes and alternative rules for existing classes. Would likely be worth it to make a script to extract these and wait for v2 of classes?
- [ ] Adept
- [ ] Bard
- [ ] Berserker
- [ ] Cleric
- [ ] Druid
- [ ] Fighter
- [ ] Herald
- [ ] Marshal
- [ ] Ranger
- [ ] Rogue
- [ ] Sorcerer
- [ ] Warlock
- [ ] Wizard
- [ ] Equipment
- [ ] Additional / alternative weapons
- [ ] Additional / alternative armors
- [ ] Additional adventuring gear
- [ ] Multiclassing and Feats
- [ ] Bladechanter
- [ ] Whirling Incantor
- [ ] Eldritch Whirlwind Master
- [ ] Spellcasting
- [ ] Defines all the tags for spells as spell schools. Questionable if this should be added. There is one added: Transformation. This spell school was introduced here: (https://github.com/open5e/open5e-api/commit/215c996a7810b0b4588280675bcea8bdad298ce1). This is on the spell Haste, which does have this school in the source, but it is most likely an error in the source. In all other cases, the school before the semi-colon is a traditional 5e school.
Monstrous Menagerie
None of the monsters have been added. There are a good 200 pages with a5e monsters, beasts and NPCs.
Dungeon Delver's Guide
This resource adds quite a few additional resources:
- [ ] Heritages
- [ ] Cultures
- [x] Backgrounds
- [ ] Archetypes (are these subclasses?)
- [ ] Special Equipment
- [ ] Spells
- [ ] Traps (would be a new resource)
- [ ] Monsters
Gate Pass Gazette (4 Issues)
- [ ] Heritages
- [ ] Artificer (Class)
- [ ] Monsters
- [ ] Archetypes
- [x] Backgrounds
- [ ] Culture
- [ ] Destiny
- [ ] Items
Part of this duplicates #162
@Kordishal so a5e deviates from standard 5e enough in some cases that our data model doesn't support. Try and call out the situations that are WAY different when you find them, I think I may be able to help support them.
For example: A5e backgrounds have Connections and Memento. I adjusted v2 to support many different types, so both a5e backgrounds and 5e backgrounds are supported in a single data object. Other things to consider is Races in 5e corresponds to Heritages in a5e in all but name, so I've just use Races as the presentation layer.
It's possible that they deviate too far in some cases. When we confirm that, we may have to come up with a creative solution to support both.
