    I'm basically a DS originalist. That being the early boxed set prec prism Pentad. Which basically destroyed the setting. If you redid Darksun you couldn't fit the metaphlot stuff in a new book anyway. I wouldn't erase it I wouldn't include it. There's a difference. Leave it up to the...

    Well as I said I would focus on the 1991 set if I was updating it. Bit more focus on tbe environment, past is a mystery, anti slavery, the rulers are tyrants. Rajaat and cleansing wars are not n early DS product. You don't retcon them away you just don't mention it a'la 1991. Alot of the...

    Alot of the problem DS came in later product. If you focus on the 1991 set (the classic one) there's no Rajast and the past is a mystery. Leaves slavery and way Muls are written for the most part. And as previously referenced it's about PG levels if it's a movie. BG3 had slavery in it as...

    D&D 5E (2024) Rate My Avatar of Bane (Based on ENworlds Feedback).

    Hence why I used archepriesr as a base. Fighter/cleric type leaning towards domination effects imho. And black hand attacks. 4d19 danage on a CR12 seems fine but adding legendary abilities is to good? I'll have 5 PCs reasonably well equipped with some legendaries, buffed with aid and temp HP.

    D&D General In this day and age, people still laugh when you invite them to play D&D.

    I'm finding. . Internet Randoms. Very flakes. Turn up few sessions then afk. Generally. 50% flakesy or unsuitable 30% ok 10% ideal 10% toxic Something like that

    It's about half. The book had tables to 40 as the cwp so halving it works. NPCs don't have class levels in 5.5.

    His 36 cleric levels are why I used the archpriest as a basis. I added legendar actions left the damage as is for a CR12 critter. Tgecreaction attack is based off BG3 and a CR 10 critter ability at 8d6 iirc.

    Well with what kids can consume these days on their phones Darksun is a nothing burger lol.

    Hence rating system. Art should be offensive and push boundaries imho. Leave it up to the consumer to make the decision what's comfortable for them. Not talking about the worst stuff that's illegal. 1990s Darksun at worst is PG rated if it was a movie. BG3 had worse content in it so I...

    Strength score was lifted from archepriest. It's the basis of most things here.

    Well there's nothing in Darksun you wouldn't see in say a PG rated movie. PG13+ at most. I think post BG3 oeopke are a lit less offended by what internet woukd indicate. Here the broadcasting standards authority uses what a reasonable person woukd be offended by. Otherwise late at night...
