A D&D Weight Gain and Fitness Homebrew

Hello! I come to you guys with a bit of homebrew I have been developing. The system is built around fitness and weight gain. It is more complex than ExpanD&D, but I have tried to make it as user friendly as possible. I decided to put this up here for anyone interested in checking it out. Enjoy guys!

I always like seeing new RPG rules to handle obesity, and how different people handle it.

Totally. I’m a sucker for systems that are a bit more complex, which is why I built this. Hopefully its understandable. If clarification is needed on anything, let me know.

Up to run this with a few players on discord?

Hey, I was thinking of making a system for weight gain in D&D myself, and I wanted to incorporate a few of the ideas you used here, specifically the weight stages.
I’m not copying it outright, but I’m using similar terminology and mechanics- “Burden score,” reducing AC by half of the weight stage, etc.

If I ever wanted to format everything and post it online far in the future, do I have your approval to do so? I’ll be sure to credit you for part of the inspiration by adding a link to this post, if you’d like.

I’m going to say this for everyone here: Please do~

Yeah, feel free to take ideas from this document. I haven’t touched it in a long time since I don’t play 5E anymore personally.
