    D&D 5E Designing an Arcana Guild/Council

    Rather than a school or college -given what you said about it governing itself, how about making it the actual official political body of mages? Make it like a senate but purely dealing with magical matters: Condemning spellcasters for breaking the law, outlawing spells or magic items, handling...

    D&D 5E Advancing and Regressing monsters?

    Yeah, *in theory* you can just shuttle them up or down the AC/HP/AB/DPR chart for creating new monsters in the DM's Guide. I'm not sure how well it'd work in practice.

    D&D 5E (OPTIMIZATION) THE NAMELESS KING ! THE WIZARD's NIGHTMARE! LAST BOSS

    Heh, you literally edited the original post to cover up things like the fact he originally had more than three attuned items, rather than going 'oh yeah, my bad, will correct'. Meanwhile, his powers and abilities have changed from the first thread you started here, which is more than a bit odd...

    D&D 5E (OPTIMIZATION) THE NAMELESS KING ! THE WIZARD's NIGHTMARE! LAST BOSS

    I'm not 100% convinced this is a DM controlled character in a real campaign, as opposed to someone coming up with what they think is an unbeatable build and want to crow over it on a forum (the backstory is awful and the situation makes no sense) but yes, you're right - DM judgment can waive...

    D&D 5E (OPTIMIZATION) THE NAMELESS KING ! THE WIZARD's NIGHTMARE! LAST BOSS

    Exhaustion with a capital E, as in the condition, is not the problem here. I mean, sure, it *is* an issue because Greater Restoration costs 100gp of spell components a pop. Even if not long resting is the only source of exhaustion XxxUberNecroEdgexxX here has, and for some reason he's only...

    D&D 5E (OPTIMIZATION) THE NAMELESS KING ! THE WIZARD's NIGHTMARE! LAST BOSS

    There are so many things wrong with the character you've built that indicate you've either missed elements of the rules, or you don't understand them in the first place, but let's start with the most amusing one: You forgot to give the character Aspect of the Moon and spent their invocations on...

    Happy Haggert Hurried Hungry Hitch Hiking Hired Henchmen Hivers.... apply within

    Well I hope that there's nothing still in there from the last time I was here; it'd have gone a little off by now... I'm still just trying to familiarise myself with the new-fangled layout and manner of these forums.

    Happy Haggert Hurried Hungry Hitch Hiking Hired Henchmen Hivers.... apply within

    ...I haven't posted on ENWorld in 9 years, and last time I did was to an old Hive thread. So, er, hello again! I wonder how many other old-timers are still around :P

    The Hive is ALIVE! It's not dead yet!

    Hmm, I may have to go poke around there some time, see who's there :) *waits impatiently for GSL*

    The Hive is ALIVE! It's not dead yet!

    It's incredible, really :) Hive threads even outlived randomlings place, it seems, given that those forums address goes nowhere anymore :( Howevah! Depending on the GSL, I may be spending a little more time frequenting these boards once again. Watch this space... ;) Or, well, not *this*...

    The Hive is ALIVE! It's not dead yet!

    *zips past, waving to Horacio as he goes and marvelling that the Hive is still going*

    Dewl barsturd swordz yo!

    Well, uh, your rules and your game, and all that. I'm not entirely sure how it's worse than a fellow wielding a pair of axes or suchlike. However, this isn't an innovation anyway, is it? From what I remember, you could easily do the same in 3E with an Exotic Weapon Proficiency and a...

    Grrr... can't find Keep on the Shadowfell!

    Just checked the Bristol Forbidden Planet branch - no luck in finding KotS on the shelves there :(

    D&D 4E UK 4E Launch Event at The London Dungeon

    I'm guessing there'll be nothing here in Bristol, and I almost certainly wont be in London for the 4E launch event. Oh well.

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    I've been at work 6 hours now and forgot to take a lunch break, so at least the end of the day really is close now. Then off home for some food, and off to the evening rp session.

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    My Monday morning work is, at least, relatively straightforwards, albeit also quite time-consuming. I need to go make a cup of tea to wake myself up with.

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    *pretends to be alive and awake* Ah, Monday morning, a time that I can autopilot through while filling out spreadsheet reports for the weekend's activity. How is everyone?

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    Sorry 'bout taking so long to reply to this :) These days, things're going well enough. I spent a while as an editor at Mongoose Publishing after finishing uni (which was a very interesting experience) then hit a rough patch in life in pretty much all aspects of things after leaving Mongoose...

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    Seems longer than that, somehow :o Maybe it's just because so much stuff has happened in real life between now and then. How're things with you these days?
