Wyrds of the Multiverse
 Hello and welcome to another issue of
Haggard Clint vs. the Multiverse where we
explore the weird and fascinating within
our endless cosmos! This month we bring
you an update to the earlier Wyrd, a class
all about using fate to turn the tide in battle
through incredible transformations.
Wyrds and the
Multiverse
The first thing you have to understand about a
Wyrd is that every single one of them is a viola-
tion to the natural order of the cosmos. You see,
there is a force in our universe, unknowable to
us, that is influencing every aspect of our exis-
tence. It makes us late for work, stops us from
getting into horrible accidents, and generally
presents itself as the standard cause and effect of
our actions throughout our daily lives.
The Wyrd is a thorn in the side of this natural or-
der. For these creatures, the standard governance of
our universe is merely an obstacle that with enough
effort can be denied, even transformed. Some would
say that to be the master of one’s own fate is a fools
errand, but for the Wyrd, it’s just a matter of will.
Wyrds are created when a seemingly ordinary
creature experiences some great upheaval in their
day-to-day course of life. Perhaps they survived a
near death experience like being struck by lightning
or infected by a strange poison? Referred to here
as a “Quirk of Fate”, these and similar instances
challenge the Wyrd in ways no ordinary humanoid
would usually overcome. By summoning the deep-
est depths of their will, the Wyrd not only survives
their encounter with fate, but in time, may also learn
to control it!
HCvTM September 2022: - 03
Wyrds of the Multiverse
Weavers of Chaos
Wyrds are surrounded by chaos and constantly at
war with the way of the world. Both the beloved
children of fate and it’s great defilers, every day be-
comes a battle of wills against fate as it consistently
attempts to bring balance to the world around them.
Plagued by mysterious forces, the Wyrd can
sometimes feel like one of the most cursed creature
on the planet. It is, however, this constant call to
adventure that inspires the Wyrd to find their trade-
mark indomitable will and the ability to weave the
chaos of fate into the phenomenal transformations
they’re known for. In fact, the true sign of any Wyrd
is in just how determined they are not to go down
without a fight!
Transformed by Fate
It is their extraordinary encounter with fate that
allows the Wyrd to exploit their condition and sew
chaos through themselves. The transfomations
they evoke are often so dangerous they can only be
sustained for a short period of time. Until they learn
to control it indefinitely, the power’s it grants will
always recede eventually. To master this, the Wyrd
flexes their will like a resource, fueling themselves
with almost unlimited potential and an unbreakable
resolve.
In any normal scenario such use of chaos would
result in some random attempt at rebalancing from
the cosmos, resulting int the Wyrd being hit by a
runaway carriage, crushed by a falling beam or
some other warning shot from fate. Thankfully,
the phenomenal transformations of their quirk is
exactly what protects them. Some become raging
green monsters able to withstand any force, others
burst into flames and are shielded by fire, and some
even lift into the air and are clad in divine armor to
become the temporary avatar of their demi-gods!
-
 Villains and Vigilantes
Local law enforcement are frequently at odds with
Wyrds due to their penchant for taking matters into
their own hands as either villains or vigilantes.
As villains, they’ll sew the seeds of chaos using
their abilities to get rich or execute violence until
they get what they want. In some cases their quirk
can overcome their sense of reason and drive them
insane, or perhaps free their inhibitions and allow
them to become the true villain they’ve always been.
Oddly enough, in many worlds being a vigilante is
seen as even more of a threat. With anonymity and
power, the Wyrd rarely answers for their so-called
good deeds. Sure, the Wyrd may save the day, but
they are ultimately breaking the law each time they
hold their own moral code above the rules civilised
society has agreed to follow!
Whether or not a Wyrd becomes a vigilante or
a villain depends largely on who and how they are
trained. Most Wyrds encounter their quirks alone
and can become frightened of them due to the dra-
matic transformations they evoke. Without support,
it is an unfortunate liklihood the Wyrd will become
villainous or at the very least, extremely self-serving.
If a Wyrd does take this darker path, however, it is
not necessarily because they were just born bad or Wyrds of the Beast Within appear in a variety of ways.
Artist: DomCritelli
suffered some traumatic break (though that does
happen). In most cases, much like how a vigilante
would justify the greater good in their violation of Known Wyrds
the law, so too does the villain! As usual, regardless
of the chaos they cause, everyone is a hero in their The multiverse is littered with Wyrds of all walks,
own story. talks, and types. The following section lists a few of
these more well known adventurers, including the

Wyrds of the Multiverse

“I’ve got no strings, to hold me down, to
make me fret, or make me frown. I had
strings but now I’m free, there are no
strings on me.”
- Ned Washington, Bard
In a dazzlement of lights, a dwarf rises into the
air, spinning slowly as radiant armor manifests
itself onto their form, and transforms them into
the embodiment of their demi-god.
Removing their spectacles and tossing their
shirt aside, the half-orc bursts into flames and takes
flight, trailing fire as they rush to catch their friend.
Struggling in the darkness, a human clutches
their head in agony, failing to hold back the curses’s
desire as it envelops them in its thick, armored hide
and reveals the true beast within.
Wyrds are the supernatural quirks of fate, trans-
formed by strange phenomena and entwined with
the chaotic forces of destiny. Their transformations
are extremely dangerous, requiring immense focus
and control to master. Through sheer force of will,
the Wyrd weaves the raw chaos of fate through
themselves to evoke a powerful transformation, and
unleash their true potential.
Children of Fate
Living creatures, such as humanoids, beasts and
other animate things, are fundamentally different to
inanimate entities due to a mysterious phenomenon
known as “the wyrd”. Theologians call this “wyrd”
the will of the gods, scientists know it as physics,
and poets sing of it as destiny, but whatever its title,
there’s no denying its influence over our universe.
It governs everything, weaving its threads of cause
and effect throughout the cosmos and binding
together all things. So powerful are its threads,
no science or magic can sever or sway them from
their predetermined ends. However, every now and
again, through a mysterious quirk of fate, a creature
can find its thread entangled with the strange and
unusual, and transform into something weird.
Wyrds are the children of fate, destined to change
by random and impossible phenomena to become
“more than humanoid”. They are the soldier granted
psychic power after exposure to aberrant blood,
the explorer who fell through a cosmic storm and
became a living star, the survivor whose near-death

Wyrds of the Multiverse
RESEARCH NOTICE
The material in this article has been updat-
ed since the Wyrd’s release in June 2022. It
is again available for playtesting again here.
The mechanics represented here are still in
draft form, usable for your campaign but still
undergoing refinement.
experience cursed them to have visions of the dead,
and other creatures granted supernatural abilities
through a mysterious quirk of fate. As a supernat-
ural being, the Wyrd lives a life without strings,
enabling them to transcend the limits bestowed
on them by fate and develop innate and powerful
abilities.
Unlike those who train, study, or pledge alle-
giance to some grand purpose or entity, the Wyrd
draws their power from the chaotic forces of fate
itself, manifesting it into a phenomenal transforma-
tion. These transformations come on so dramati-
cally the Wyrd is practically unrecognisable to who
they once were, granting them a unique kind of an-
onymity. With thier natural mask, all Wyrds benefit
from a double life; both the one they are known by,
and the supernatural creature they truly are.
Great Power,
Great Responsibility
If fate determines destiny, then the Wyrd is an agent
of chaos. With the innate gifts of their quirks, the
Wyrd weaves the will of fate as their own, empow-
ering themselves and others around them to be
masters of their own destiny. Once transformed,
there is little that can stand in their way. They’ll
round up common street thugs, shut down escaped
renegade demons, reroute the ocean tide, and even
stand face-to-face against cosmic titans attempting
to devour the world if it means delaying fate just one
second longer.
The eccentricities and abilities of the Wyrd’s
transformations cause them to stand out in common
society, requiring them to adopt secret identities to
keep them and their loved ones safe. For the more
cautious or fearful, it is a life spent on the run,
hiding away as hermits and street urchins. Most
Wyrds, however, cannot help but stand out in a
crowd, and even go so far as to become famous for
their deeds and the champions of their cities.
Equal parts villain and vigilante, Wyrds live by
their own moral code, freeing themselves to go
above and beyond in the name of what they think
is right and true. Though their paths may entwine
with the threads fate spins, for the Wyrd, a life of
great power and responsibility means the only fate
that matters is the one you can make for yourself.

Wyrds of the Multiverse
 Wyrd Quirk
Your fateful encounter has granted you a mysterious
quirk. Choose one Wyrd Quirk related to the fateful
encounter that made you a Wyrd. Each quirk is
detailed at the end of the class description.
Evidence of your quirk shows in the form of a
tell. Your tell could be shards of potion bottles in
your skin, a contraption in place of where your heart
should be, eyes of black ichor, an enlarged cranium,
or any other similarly notable feature.
Your wyrd quirk grants you proficiencies at 1st
level, and abilities at 1st, 3rd, 6th, 10th, 14th and
18th level.
Quirk Die
Your wyrd quirk turns your hit die into Quirk Die.
As well as being your hit dice, you can spend your
quirk die whenever indicated by an ability or feature.
When you spend a quirk die, it is unavailable to you
until you next finish a long rest. When you finish a
long rest, you regain all spent quirk die in full.
Your quirk die is a d4, and increases as you level
in this class to a d6 at 5th level, a d8 at 9th, a d10 at
13th, and a d12 at 17th.
Wyrd Identity
1st-level Wyrd feature
Your life as a wyrd has required you to develop a
natural mask, granting you two identities: secret
and wyrd. Your secret identity is who you are known
as by those closest to you. The other is your wyrd
identity. Your wyrd identity comes with a name or
title, either chosen by you or bestowed on you by
others, and is who you are seen as during your Phe-
nomenal Transformation.
As part of maintaining your mask, you learn
skills to help you pass in everyday society. When
you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th and
19th level, you gain proficiency in one skill, tool,
vehicle or language you are not already proficient in.
Holistic Entanglement
1st-level Wyrd feature
Your fate shares a strange connectedness to the
universe. This sense is vague but can lead you to
seemingly impossible coincidences. Your Passive
Perception gains a bonus equal to your Wyrd level.
Unfathomable Resolve
2nd-level Wyrd feature
No matter how bad it gets you can do this all day.
If you have no Quirk die remaining, as an action,
you can summon a well of resolve and grant your-
self a number of Quirk dice equal to your proficiency
bonus.
You have one use of this feature and you regain
all uses the next time you finish a long rest.
HCvTM September 2022: - 07
Wyrds of the Multiverse
Sew Chaos
3rd-level Wyrd feature
Your entanglement with fate is represented by your
quirk die, which you can use to sew the raw chaos
of fate in powerful ways. You can spend your quirk
die to sew chaos and evoke a Phenomenal Transfor-
mation. You learn more ways to sew chaos as you
gain levels in the class, and as detailed in your wyrd
quirk’s description.
Some of your sew chaos features may require
saving throws. When such an ability is used from
this class, the saving throw DC is calculated as
follows:
Wyrd save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Constitution modifier.
Phenomenal Transformation
As a bonus action, or as a reaction to taking dam-
age, you can expend a quirk die and sew chaos
through you. Your will is amplified, granting you
temporary hit points equal to ten times your profi-
ciency bonus and evoking a phenomenal transfor-
mation. These temporary hit points represent your
strength of will over fate and last until your transfor-
mation ends, or you transform again, replacing any
temporary hit points you had.
When you transform, you don your Wyrd Iden-
tity and are unrecognisable from who you once
were. Any creature who does not see you transform
cannot be sure you or your transformed self are the
same creature without extensive investigation.
While transformed, you wear your natural armor.
Your natural armor AC is 10 + your Dexterity mod-
ifier + your proficiency bonus, and you gain addi-
tional benefits and abilities as detailed in your Wyrd
Quirk’s description.
Your transformation requires your concentration
as if you were maintaining a spell for the duration.
You do not roll Constitution saving throws to main-
tain your transformation if you have any remaining
temporary hit points. Your transformation lasts up
to 1 minute, or until your concentration is broken or
ended by you, requiring no action.
Ability Score Improvement
4th-level Wyrd feature
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th,
16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability
score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two
ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you
can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this
feature.
Extra Attack
5th-level Wyrd feature
You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you
take the attack action on your turn.
-
 Challenge Fate
6th-level Wyrd feature
You defy fate at every turn, daring it to challenge
your resolve. When you are forced to make a saving
throw, you can spend a Quirk die and make a Con-
stitution saving throw instead.
Touch of Destiny
7th-level Wyrd feature
The chaos which surrounds you assures a touch of
destiny. The enemies’ cloak catches on a branch, the
sunlight shines in the eyes of the archer, the wind
knocks over a bottle of oil causing it to drips along
the bookshelf and onto your manacles, or a similar
series of events occur to twist fate in your favor.
When a creature of your choice within 10 feet of
you rolls at either advantage or disadvantage, you
can spend a Quirk die and add your Constitution
modifier to the roll.
Indomitable Fortitude
9th-level Wyrd feature
You can overcome just about any ailment through
sheer will alone. As a bonus action, you can spend a
quirk die to impose your will and end any condition
or effect currently afflicting you for 1 minute.
Force of Will
11th-level Wyrd feature
Your strength of will over fate is so strong, you can
innately cause fate to make a bad situation worse.
The chandelier swings into their head, the bucket
rolls under their feet, the arrow ricochets into them,
or similar series of events occur.
When a creature misses an attack against you
or fails your saving throw, you can spend and roll a
number of quirk dice up to your proficiency bonus
and add their result as bonus force damage, and
the creature is at disadvantage on attack rolls they
make until the end of their next turn.
Enduring Focus
15th-level Wyrd feature
You have found balance between fate and chaos,
and achieved mastery over your quirk. Your phe-
nomenal transformation has no maximum duration
and now lasts until your concentration ends.

Wyrds of the Multiverse
Wyrd Quirk
“We are a fluke of nature, a quirk of evolution, a
glorious contingency.”
- Michael Shermer, Poet
At 1st level, an encounter with a mysterious quirk
of fate has made you into a wyrd. Your quirk
grants you abilities as you level in this class that
differ depending on your Wyrd Quirk.
Amorphous
Mr Fantastic, Clayface, Plastic Man, Elastigirl, etc.
Wyrds of the Amorphous reach through fate to
bend and twist themselves beyond their physical
limits. When transformed, the Wyrd becomes
malleable, capable of tying up their foes and
squeezing through just about any obstacle.
Amorphous Origins Table
d4 Origin
Mechanical. After losing your limbs in a horrible
1 accident, you obtain a rare liquid metal com-
pound, greatly aiding your mobility.
Mutation. Triggered by an exposure to ecto-
2 plasm, a rare deformity in your physiology aug-
mented your form with stretchable properties.
Mystical. A fey tricks you into accepting a curse
3 that would grant you greater flexibility, turning
your body into a rubbery mass.
Natural. You were born with muscle and bone
4 abnormality that through careful study and train-
ing, you’ve turned into your greatest strength.
Quirk Proficiencies
1st-level Amorphous ability
Your quirk extends the subtleties of your move-
ments. You are proficient in Deception and Sleight
of Hand, and Dexterity saving throws.
Abnormal Stretchability
1st-level Amorphous ability
Your body is abnormally malleable, granting you
resistance to bludgeoning damage and capable of
grappling up to two people, instead of one.
Amorphous Malleability
1st-level Amorphous ability
When you evoke your Phenomenal Transformation,
the physical bonds of your body squeeze, separate,
and stretch. While transformed, you have the follow-
ing benefits:
• Amorphous. You can change your appearance
to look like any other creature you’ve touched
-
 and can squeeze through a space as narrow
as 1 inch wide, provided you are wearing and
carrying nothing.
• Greater Grip. Your unarmed strikes use your
Quirk die and you are not at disadvantage on
attack rolls you make while grappled.
As a bonus action, you can extend your
reach to 10 feet. When you hit a target with an
unarmed strike, you can use a bonus action to
grapple the target.
Relax Body
5th-level Amorphous ability
If you are not wearing heavy armor, you can relax
your form and glide as far as you fall. While gliding,
you fall at half speed, you take no damage from fall-
ing, and you can use your movement to fall in any
direction you choose. When you land after gliding,
your speed is reduced to 0 until the start of your
next turn.
While transformed, your body can always bear
the brunt of impact and you take no damage from
falling.
Minor Mimicry
10th-level Amorphous ability
As an action, you can spend a Quirk die and morph
your your hands into any simple object you’ve
touched, such as a simple melee weapon and shield,
a key, hammer, or similar. You are proficient in any
object your morph your hands into.
Your morphed objects act exactly as the objects
you mimick. If mimicking an object that would
deal damage the object deals bludgeoning damage
instead of its normal damage. While morphed, you
cannot hold objects using your morphed hands.
You can return your hands to their normal form
at any time, requiring no action.
Change Shape
14th-level Amorphous ability
While transformed, as an action, you can spend a
Quirk die and reshape your entire body into any sol-
id shape, such as a cube, wall, set of stairs, spring,
or similar. Your size changes depending on the
amount of area you fill. Your shape cannot exceed
a 15-foot sphere area or support weight greater
than you can carry. Your shape lasts until the start
of your next turn. At the start of your next turn, you
can spend another Quirk die to maintain your form,
requiring your action.
Elongated Elasticity
18th-level Amorphous ability
Your Change Shape now lasts until your transfor-
mation ends, and can be ended early by you, requir-
ing no action.
HCvTM September 2022: - 09
Wyrds of the Multiverse
Beast Within
Hulk, Werewolves, Mr. Hyde, Venom, etc.
Wyrds of the Beast Within barrel through fate
with unstoppable force, smashing and clawing
through obstacles and stopping foes in their
tracks. When transformed, the Wyrd unleashes
their primal power and reveals the beast within.
Beast Within Origins Table
d4 Origin
Mechanical. An over-ambitious alchemist inject-
1 ed you with a parasite in the hope of harvesting
your organs once it was done feeding.
Mutation. Accidental exposure to a strange mist
2 roused the dormant monstrous blood passed
down through your family for centuries.
Mystical. While attempting to escape a hag, you
3 stumbled into the wrong set of shelves and cut
yourself on a jar of strange living black liquid.
Natural. Word of a crashed meteorite gave you
4 the final clue to tracking down the entity that con-
sumed your family, but something went wrong.
Quirk Proficiencies
1st-level Beast Within feature
The beast amplifies your physiology for its own
gains. You are proficient in Athletics and Acrobatics,
and Strength saving throws.
Beast Instincts
1st-level Beast Within ability
The beast lurks within, heightening your instincts
and agility. You add double your proficiency bonus
when making Perception checks relying on your
sense of smell or hearing, and you do not provoke
attacks of opportunity from leaving another crea-
ture’s space.
Beast Unleashed
3rd-level Beast Within ability
When you evoke your Phenomenal Transformation,
the beast enlarges your body and emerges in its
ultimate monstrous form. While transformed, you
have the following benefits:
• Monstrous Hide. Your AC increases by 1, your
size is Large and you count as one size larger
when determining how much you can lift, pull
or carry.
• Monstrous Beast. Your unarmed strikes use
your Quirk die and deal your choice of bludgeon-
ing, piercing, or slashing damage.
As a bonus action, you can leap up to 10
feet towards a creature and attempt to tackle
them. The creature makes a Dexterity saving
throw or is knocked prone and grappled.
-
 Monstrous Mobility
5th-level Beast Within ability
The distance of your long jump and high jump
doubles. You do not require 10 feet of movement to
jump.
While transformed, you have a climb speed equal
to your walking speed. When you make a long or
high jump while transformed, any Athletics or Acro-
batics check you make with a result of 5 or lower is
treated as a 5 instead.
Deafening Roar
10th-level Beast Within ability
As an action, you can spend a Quirk die and let
out a long, deafening roar and any creature within
30 feet that can hear you must make a Constitu-
tion saving throw. A creature takes 2d10 thunder
damage and become deafened for 1d4 rounds on a
failed save, or half as much damage on a successful
one. Your roar can be heard up to 300 feet away and
frightens creatures with an Intelligence score of 6
or lower for 1 minute. A creature frightened by your
roar can make a Wisdom saving throw at the end of
their turn to end the frightened condition.
Unrelenting Force
14th-level Beast Within ability
Your strength is near limitless. While transformed,
your attacks deal double damage to objects and
structures, and you can make an attack as a bonus
action.
Absolute Carnage
18th-level Beast Within ability
While transformed, when you hit a creature, you
can spend a Quirk die and add it’s result as bonus
damage. On the die’s highest result, you can make
another attack roll. If you roll a 20 on an attack roll,
the creature is critically hit and injured, lowering it’s
AC by 1 and its movement by 5 feet until it receives
hit points and heals.
WYRDS IN TRAINING
Wyrds often experience their quirks in mo-
ments of great distress. These moments can
be scary and scarring, causing the wyrd to
hide away so that they might heal, train and
attempt to understand what has happened
to them and how they’ve changed. For the
lucky ones, they learn to control their quirks
under the tutelage of a mentor or academy of
other wyrds like them. In some worlds, entire
teams of wyrds band together as heroes!

Wyrds of the Multiverse
Cosmic Fire

shape but not any specific details other than what
they might be wearing.

When you evoke your Phenomenal Transformation,
you are engulfed by fire and erupt in cosmic energy.
While transformed, you have the following benefits:
• Flame Body. You are resistant to fire damage
and immune to any fire you conjure. Your flames

an additional 5 feet. When you grapple a crea-
ture, or a creature grapples you, the creature

 As an attack, you can conjure a mote and
hurl it at a target you can see within 60 feet as a
ranged attack.
As an action, you can conjure a mote and
blast either a 5-foot wide, 15-foot long straight

age on a successful saving throw. Each time you
explode before your transformation ends, you add
a bonus 1d10 fire damage and the radius of your
sphere doubles (maximum of 30-foot radius).
HUMANOIDS VS.
SUPERHUMANOIDS
The greatest challenge with understanding
the Wyrd is that although every adventurer is
special in their own way, the Wyrd is special
in a very specific way. This often has them
learning gifts and wielding powers much ear-
lier than their compatriots. It’s important to
remember that while the Wyrd can do incred-
ible things, those things are often extremely
narrow and limited.

cult terrain when you take the Dash action.

make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, the
creature takes 1d10 thunder damage. This thunder
can be heard from up to to 300 feet away.

you can use your reaction to negate the effects of
your turn and take your turn again. You have one
use of this ability and you regain all uses when you
finish a long rest.
FAST ENOUGH TO
DEFY REALITY ITSELF
Lightspeeder’s seem to defy the laws of
reality itself with their incredible speed.
Whilst theoretically a humanoid moving at
such speeds would see their flesh ripped right
off their bones and their legs generate enough
friction to ignite the sun, the Lightspeeder
seems immune to such physical limitations.
When you see a Lightspeeder move in
a way that makes little sense to your
own sense of reality, just remember this
helpful but at times infuriating fact...
They’re wyrd.

 A “Wyrd” is a heroric archtype in which the hero has powers and abilities only when transformed.
This transformation is usually granted by a special entity, item or phenomena and invoked by
reciting a special word or phrase, using a special item, or some other special action of the hero.
