The VOIDRUNNER'S CODEX is coming! Explore new worlds, fight oppressive empires, fend off fearsome aliens, and wield deadly psionics with this comprehensive boxed set expansion for 5E and A5E!
Does Protection from Evil spells protect its recipients from all enchantment (charm) effects and enchantment (compulsion) effects? (IE: Charm Person, Command, Suggestion, etc.)
Or does the spell stop at spells like Dominate Person/Monster?
This is probably the lamest statement I've seen to classify someone else's playing style in a couple of years.
If you want to stay with the core rules, that's your option.
A DM or player who has spent hundreds of dollars on D&D products and doesn't bother to use them to his own advantage...
I think he means Sinbad cartoon (Brad Pitt & Catherine Zeta). :)
However, the Ice Bird in Sinbad would probably be a Roc. The Goddess who summoned the Roc was also the same entity who casted the spell to bring freezing cold into the area.
Possible Repair...
I have fixed this problem at work several times. I have a long winded Microsoft Solution for you. I'm not sure if it will work for you but you can give it a shot. If you send me your e-mail address, I'll send it to you.
It all depends on your DMs. I have played with one group every other Sunday since Oct of 2001 and we're all stuck around 10th level. On alternating Sundays, I play with a different group that started playing seriously last Oct and we're all just 2000 or so XP away from 12th level. Go figure. lol
