    D&D 5E Need help with Dex Trickery Cleric

    For the next D&D Encounters session I'd like to play a Cleric with the Trickery Domain and preferably a bit of a swashbuckler if possible. He'll be Human (variant) and have the Charlatan background (Deception, Sleight of Hand, Disguise Kit, and forgery kit) that sells fake relics of all FR...

    Cleric Domain: Cold

    I'm creating a Cold Cleric Domain for world building purposes but I'd like some feedback on if this would work for PCs or if it should be a Villainous Option only. The deities that would grant access to this domain would be Thrym from the Nonhuman and Norse pantheons* and Auril from Forgotten...

    D&D 5E Should WotC launch a new Living Campaign with D&D Next?

    Does D&D Next need to launch with a new Living Campaign? The first Living Campaign was Living City during the AD&D days. With the launch of 3rd Edition, WotC also started Living Greyhawk. When 3rd Edition gave way to 4th Edition, Living Greyhawk was ended and Living Forgotten Realms was...

    Sniping, Readying, Ambushing, Lurking

    I'm reading the Actions in Combat section and I've got the following scenario in my head. A rogue is sneaking up on a sentry and trying to snipe him from cover/shadows. The rogue makes a stealth/dexterity check versus the sentry's perception/wisdom check. Ties go to the rogue since the sentry...

    D&D 4E Quick Summary of how I would do 4E Birthright

    WotC has hinted that Wizards will be supporting in Dragon and Dungeon other settings including a "semi-obscure but flavorful" setting. I'm hoping it's my personal favorite, Birthright. If it is, my goal of writing my own version will seem obsolete. I've been trying to work on my own for some...

    Oots #692

    Strip #692 is now up. Rich turns yet another cliche on it head to make a joke.

    Fourthifying healing in SWSE

    I've been enjoying SWSE so far, but I really hate the healing system in the game. I much prefer the 4E healing for several reasons, but mostly because it's easy for me the GM. I know at the beginning of each combat, the players are at max hit points. At the same time, they have a finite amount...

    I have Condition Track issues. Should I houserule?

    One of the characters in my home game is using the Dastardly Strike (Scoundrel talent) + Devastating Attack (Soldier talent) combo and it's working really well, possibly too well. In fact, most of my PCs are taking one level of soldier just to take the Devastating Attack talent which is quickly...

    Does Dragon Magic Sorcerer = Trap?

    I created a Dragonborn Dragon Magic Sorcerer last night and I've run into some issues. The first thing I noticed is that Draconic Resilience only allows you to use your strength for AC and not Reflex defense. So maxing out Strength and Charisma only will make you vulnerable to one of the most...
