    D&D 5E Enter the shadow demons

    These seem really annoying, so I am going to unleash them on my players. (Also fits the encounter thematically, but that is just a bonus). Curious about any experience in actual play. They seem very powerful, at least until someone breaks out the light cantrip. Or maybe a torch.

    PALADINS!

    On Thursday, in a huge, come from behind victory Furman (no, you have never heard of it) and specifically the Furman PALADINS, beat the far more prestigious University of Virginia. Virginia? You mean the Virginia CAVALIERS. Yes, thats right, the Paladins finally had a chance to show the...

    D&D General Deja Vu

    A version of D&D designed and marketed as a pen and paper game, but its really meant as a stepping stone to online play. To make this happen, certain rules are streamlined and standardized, but new options are added to make the most of the computer-based interface. Electronic demos and...

    D&D (2024) Expert vs. Expert...vs. Expert

    We have two packs, three classes, and enough to do several builds. So, what do you like? Please try to use the (proposed) changes we know. We don't know all of them, there will almost certainly be other spells that are changed, other relevant feats, and so on, but from what we have seen of...

    D&D (2024) Some things...including from the videos

    More feats are coming, maybe many more. They really like the epic feats, so expect something kind of like in DMG now to allow those to keep being taken by 20+ level characters. Seem to be thinking about higher levels more in general (which would be a huge change). 2014 rogue very popular...

    D&D (2024) 2024 PHB Feats and Misc discussion

    A third thread to help unpack the flood of info coming our way. Another starting observation, if feats are to be made a part of the core game, they need a total rework, and they seem to be doing that. As this is also a "misc" thread, they may want to leave crits alone, and bring back the...

    D&D (2024) 2024 PHB Background discussion

    Another focused thread. Again, just to get the ball rolling, these now seem to be more important.

    D&D (2024) 2024 PHB Race discussion

    We are having a TMI moment right now with D&D, so I thought it might help to create some more focused threads. I will start: So they still seem to be calling them "races".

    Not able to access ENWorld for days

    Did something happen? Using various devices, I could not access ENWorld for a few days. Kept getting variations on "could not access the server". Now I can. I am in currently in Asia, if that matters.

    D&D 5E Underwater Ink

    Lets say someone is fighting underwater and tries to blind an opponent with a vial of ink. Can this work? How would it work? Is there any precedent for this?

    Interview with Free League CEO

    Interview with the multiple Ennie winning Swedish game company's CEO, Tomas Härenstam. https://play.nobleknight.com/free-league-publishing-publisher-spotlight/ Interesting. No huge revelations, but it may give some insight on why they are the New Hotness. And they are.

    D&D (2024) What is "compatible"?

    Some initial thoughts. Compatible can mean a lot of things, and allow for a lot of change. But not all changes. Changes that are clearly compatible: Options already introduced in latter books* New stuff that is 5e compatible Reinterpreting alignment or making it optional Detailed revisions to...

    D&D 5E Feat-less alternate human

    Looking for a human alternate. This assumes no variant human, and other races are as per PHB (not TCoE). Propose: +2 to one ability score. +1 to 2 other ability score. +1 skill proficiency and 1 tool proficiency. I could add more, but want to keep it fairly light, and general. But also want...

    So Cyberpunk 2077

    So the RPG that is getting a huge, AAA, globally marketed, biggest media inspired by a table-top game ever, is.... ...Cyberpunk. I mean, its a great game, though I haven't played it in a while. Still, seems like another game (or actually a couple of others) would have got there first.

    Bending the wall of fire

    Circle and straight line only? Can a wall of fire have some bend to it?

    Yes Virginia, there is a Great Cthulhu

    Something I like to occasionally share at this special time of year. Dear Editor-     I am 8 years old.  Some of my little friends say there is no Great Cthulhu.  Papa says, "If you see it on Alt.Horror.Cthulhu, it's so," Please tell me the truth, is there a Great Cthulhu who will rise...

    Buff Polymorph

    As far as I can tell, for buffing use, this spell allows the caster to turn the target (including self) into either: 1) Any critter of the same CR as that targets level. 2) A creature the caster is familiar with into a comparable CR (which is normally lower then level). So, which one? And...

    Sending yourself somewhere, but not really

    Outside Astral Projection, has D&D had spells that allowed you to project an image of yourself far away? I am not sure. I can't think of it, but there have been a lot of spells and magic items over the years.
