Has anyone statted up these creatures for 5th edition?

OK, so I'm running a home-brew campaign centered around the Daggerford area. I'm trying to use all of the post-Spellplague sources at my disposal to create an interesting campaign. This includes the D&D Next adventures from the area. With the SKT, a new piece of information was revealed...

I'm sorry if this has been addressed earlier, but I did look down a few pages without luck, and even tried a search.. Is there any plans of making the Epics and other specials (I've read about one where Melisande's backstory is revealed) available through DM's Guild? With the myriad of...

OK, short backstory. Two people (a married couple) left my group for a year's time, but recently returned to the city I live. Meanwhile, I recruited another player (a friend of player A). We switched to 4th edition, a game the married couple had no intentions of playing. Just before the...

OK, so I'm really struggling with skill challenges. I understand the concept, but I cannot seem to transfer it into play. I've had a couple of improvised skill challenges, which worked out well, but now I want to plan a skill challenge I know will come up sooner or later. One of the...

Maybe it's a stupid question, but: Does creatures know they are being marked by fighter's challenge / divine challenge etc.? And do they know the penalties for not attacking the marking character?

I'm about to start a 4th edition campaign next years, and while I'm really excited about a the system, I am curious to how I can adapt the system to my play style. I prefer to have 0-3 battles per day/session, so the pacing mechanism og resource distribution part of 4th Ed won't work perfectly...

Hi. I understand milestones and action points, but what about milestones and the death penalty or the daily powers of magical items? a) You get -1 on all d20 throws until you've reached 3 milestones. Do they have to be without taking an extended rest? I really hope not. b) You get one more...

I feel like I'm spamming the boards with stupid questions this weekend, but OK... I was wondering about encounters that move into other encounters and encounters where the PCs break off from, and come back. Case 1: The encounter moves into an other area, triggering a second encounter. Is this...

I'm a little confused about the Implement rules. Do wizards and clerics get a +1 bonus on powers that have the keyword Implement in them all the time, or just if they have a magical implement?

I have a question about one of Irontooth's abilities (the goblin from the kobold lair). Blood crazed - While blodied, Irontooth gains +1d10 damage and loses the ability to use goblin tactics. He must attack the nearest foe, charging when possible. At the end of his turn, he heals 5 hp. Does...

I have two questions about healing surges. I think I have the answer, I just want to clarify it. 1. Only the surges spent when you take a short rest, is deducted from your total, right? So if a cleric uses a Healing Word, that surge is "free". 2. Does monsters have healing surges as well...

OK, so I have a Lich Blighter as the major enemy in an upcoming adventure, and was wondering if the Blighter, when wild shaping into his undead animal form, still retained his paralyzing touch?

OK, so I have a warlock in my group, and he is practically unbeatable. Give a creature a high AC, check, the Warlock attacks the touch AC. Give the foe DR or energy immunities, check, the Warlock doesn't care about that. The only thing that seems to work is Spell Resistance, but with Improved...

Correct me if I'm mistaken... this spell prohibits others from entering within 10. ft of the caster (no save), and the barrier is broken if the caster attacks in melee. Does the shell prevent either the caster or the caster's enemies from attacking with ranged attacks or spells?

OK, last session, the gnome warlock in the group (who has a 24 hour fly effect on him) got poisoned to 0 strength. In the rules it says that a character who reaches 0 strength falls helpless to the ground. But what if you're flying magically? You're basically just using your magic to propel you...

OK, one of my players came up with a variant rogue he wants to play in the next campaign. It is loosely based on a class from the World of Warcraft D20 game. I would appreciate any comments on this. Is the class too powerful? Too weird? I am hesitant to allow it, as I have no idea if it's...

Does the Energy Shield aura only affect the Dragon Shaman and ONE ally? The text is singular "the shaman and his ally", which has led me to believe that this is the case.

Does a characters buff items still count when he is polymorphed/wild-shaped? Bracers of Armor, Ring of protection and so on?

What the topic says. Does drain/damage from a ghost's touch, a wounding sword or the Ray of Enfeeblement stack with each other? Or is the maximum amount of drain/damage a character can take limited to the upper limit from that attack? (e.g. 4 points of strength damage from a ghost's touch)...
