    Kickstarter's Director of Games on Why The Platform Attracts Lower OGL v1.1 Royalties

    I think people are missing how this might actually work for some small creators. I am sure that some work on very slim margins and it is a fee based on total revenue, not just profit. For example, say a creator makes $250,000 revenue on a product with a 10% margin. They would make $25,000 each...

    WotC WotC's Chris Perkins On D&D's Inclusivity Processes Going Forward

    Sure black and brown people lived in actual medieval Europe, but they were not common. I mean, at some point you have to admit that people evolved differently in different parts of the world, otherwise we would all look the same. So yes, some small minority of people moved from one society to...

    WotC WotC's Chris Perkins On D&D's Inclusivity Processes Going Forward

    There is too much to reply to individually, but I will start with an admission of where I was probably wrong. My assumption that they only had diverse casts because they were afraid to be called racist is probably incorrect. As others have pointed out, it is far more likely that they just truly...

    WotC WotC's Chris Perkins On D&D's Inclusivity Processes Going Forward

    The danger here is failing to understand people you disagree with and just labeling them bigots. You don't help them in anyway, you just prevent them from explaining themselves. Shouting people down and "canceling" them does not change their minds. It just pushes them away and they will be...

    D&D 5E Heroes of Hydellor

    "Odd that this one seems newer than the others," Mindra says aloud to herself. She approaches carefully and uses a dagger to try to reveal the shiny object in the decaying purse.

    Since we have some time while Theremin casts his spell and we rest. Mindra will take a little bit of time to thoroughly check the area. Perception and Investigation: 1D20+10 = [9]+10 = 19 1D20+4 = [8]+4 = 12 Not the greatest rolls, but it is what it is. :) Assuming Mindra finds nothing, she...

    Mindra continues to look away and looses another arrow as the creature walks through the door. Shortbow attack with disadvantage: 2D20.LOW(1)+8 = [18, 3]+8 = 11 1D6+5 = [4]+5 = 9 Dang. Missed.

    It's worth a try. Mindra and Coriana can try to hold the door while you cast.

    D&D 5E Heroes of Hydellor

    With a scream Mindra turns her head and fires blind at the creature. "There is something in here! Don't look at it! There is something wrong with it! It hurts just looking at it!" After her attack Mindra will move to her right (south) 10' and get in the corner to get out of the line of sight of...

    D&D 5E Heroes of Hydellor

    Mindra gasps and chokes, unable to even get a scream out of her mouth. A horrible sensation passes through her, but she managed to shake it off. She raised her bow, forcing herself to try to get a shot off. Con save using an Inspiration point.: 1D20+3 = [17]+3 = 20 1D20+3 = [1]+3 = 4 Mindra has...

    D&D 5E Heroes of Hydellor

    Mindra continued down into the darkness, staying as quite as possible. Easing up to the slightly open door she peered into the room beyond. Stealth: 1D20+11 = [2]+11 = 13 Perception with disadvantage: 2D20.LOW(1)+10 = [19, 14]+10 = 24 Well I didn't get a 1 on the stealth check. Hopefully a 13...

    D&D 5E Heroes of Hydellor

    Mindra will join Coriana at the door and peer down into the darkness. If it seems clear she will start down staying on alert. It seems the sounds of battle are coming from inside the room, but there is no actual source correct? It is like ghostly sounds from another time or another plan that we...

    D&D 5E Heroes of Hydellor

    Mindra spent quite a bit of time combing the ground outside the gate, in the bailey and around the tower looking for any trace of the kobolds that fled the tower. Only noticing after the fact that Theremin and Coriana were heading into the tower. Once she realized she followed quickly after. I...

    D&D 5E Hydellor OOC

    Sorry for the unreliable posting recently. Been going through some stuff recently. Hopefully I can get back on track now. Mindra has been updated to 5th level. HP 43, AC 17, PP 20

    "Agreed. I think this peace is temporary at best. If we cannot find something to give them hope of a return to the Prime then their long feud will resume."
