Homebrew Content
Create custom items, monsters, and spells for your campaigns.
What is Homebrew?
Homebrew content is custom D&D material you create for your campaign. When the official catalog doesn’t have what you need — a custom magic sword, a unique creature, or a modified spell — you create it as homebrew.
Where to Find It
Homebrew is managed from the Homebrew tab on the Campaign Dashboard (the 5th tab). Each campaign has its own homebrew content.
The Three Types
| Type | Creation Method | Used In |
|---|---|---|
| Items | Create from scratch or clone from catalog | Character inventory |
| Monsters | Clone from catalog and modify | Module encounters, token placement |
| Spells | Clone from catalog and modify | Character spell lists |
Clone from Catalog
For monsters and spells, the primary workflow is cloning: search the D&D 5e catalog, select an entry, and Mimir creates a homebrew copy you can modify. Items can also be cloned or created from scratch.
Cloned entries display “Based on [original name]” so you can track the source.
How Homebrew Integrates
- Homebrew items appear in inventory search results when adding items to characters
- Homebrew monsters appear in monster search when placing tokens in Token Setup
- Homebrew spells appear in character spell lists alongside catalog spells
All homebrew content is tagged with an HB badge throughout the UI.
