I don't have my books handy so I can't start us off myself, but I'm curious if anyone has yet done this. If so, what did you get? And does the result seem reasonable to you?

Here we go, some info on Sigil -- http://media.wizards.com/2014/downloads/dnd/DMG_67_68.pdf

Due to a recent thread about energy drain, I've been toying with the idea of using Hit Dice as more of a resource. To be clear, I'm not talking about changing hit point totals with these ideas -- just the Hit Dice used for recovery during rests. Certain monsters (or diseases) could lower your...

So, a friend brought up an issue with the new scroll rules. As written, a non-Trickster rogue can never use a scroll anymore. What do you guys think? Is this a kick in the teeth to an old D&D chestnut? Or is it about time that non-casters kept their mitts off the party's scrolls?

The online supplement is up. http://media.wizards.com/2014/downloads/dnd/RiseTiamatSupplement_Printer.pdf Nothing much new if you own the books, but a peek at some more magic items.

Just a reminder, the preliminary adventures are about to start (T-15 Minutes from time of post). You can watch the show here: http://www.twitch.tv/wotc_dnd And, as a side note, the D&D team is up to $45,000, which means that the Firearms, Explosions, and Alien Tech preview has been unlocked...

I'm not super fond of the art for the dragonorb. It looks more-knick-knack and less crystal-ball.

From another thread: To be clear -- that quote is out of context. But it did get me thinking.How CAN we break a ring of spell storing? Any ideas for ridiculous combinations that this thing enables?

In my current campaign, the PCs are storming an ancient Yuan-ti temple. The villain is a Yuan-Ti abomination who also happens to have the spellcasting ability of an 11th level fey pact Warlock. I've tentatively pegged his CR at 8, but I think I may be lowballing it. What do you guys think...

Interestingly, WotC posted up MM-style stats for one of their novel protagonists today. http://media.wizards.com/2014/downloads/dnd/MM_Farideh.pdf

I just finished up the last of the Dresden Files audiobooks, and find myself a bit aimless about what to download next. Any good suggestions? I like my fantasy to be targeted to a little bit "older" audience. Joe Abercrombe, Brandon Sanderson or Matthew Stover tell the types of stories that...

The signature parameters seem much too restrictive. 88 characters, by my experimentation. That's hardly a sentence. Little more than half a tweet. Is it intended to be quite THAT short? I know some restrictions are required in order to maintain legibility, but this seems a little extreme.

Alas, poor Conjure Fey. It allows you to conjure a fey creature (or beast) up to CR 6. And the highest CR Fey we have in the MM is the Green Hag at CR 3 and the only CR 6 beast (Fey spirit, per the spell) is the Mammoth. Seems a little disappointing to me. We need some Sidhe, stat!

Does anyone know of a place/has anyone done the work to mark out what the relationships are as depicted in the monster manual between the various creatures? For example, the Intellect Devourer lures rubes to Mind Flayers. The book is full of such connections. Has anyone collected them all so...

http://media.wizards.com/2014/downloads/dnd/MM_Kobold.pdf Nothing new stat-wise, but the art is interesting. Kind-of a blend of the pre-3E and post-3E looks.

With the release of 5th Edition, I figure a bunch of DMs are going to be jumping back into the game and designing a plethora of new worlds for their player's to rui-- er, adventure in. Starting from scratch isn't always easy, so I thought we could throw out some interesting setting elements to...

So, the Clay Golem's hit point drain on its slam attacks doesn't come back with a rest like other hit point drain abilities we've seen, requiring a restoration or such. How does the EN World community feel about this?

I got in a long stretch of gaming this last weekend and wound up with two TPKs to show for it. Henceforth my players (and their characters) shall quiver in fear at the sight of the humble bugbear. TPK 1: "Let's raise an army of clearly trustworthy goblins and storm the bugbear's den with them...

The Basic Rules are supposed to be updated with all kinds of stuff to tide us over and enable us to run campaigns until the other Core books hit shelves. Part of that will be a bestiary. So... what monster are you hoping makes the cut? Personally, I'm hoping for a wide range of monsters to...
