I made this thing a while back, but I'm working on it again! It's looking very good these days, and it's got legendary monsters now! Unfortunately Google removed the API I was using to add images to the results, but such is life. Some things that are awesome about it: - Generates a whole...

I've just begun my latest campaign: Curse of Strahd! And for this one, I'm keeping a journal, including a bunch of notes on my plans, intentions, and alterations. So far, I have my long introduction, where I discuss the themes of the campaign, what I want to get out of it, my major story...

Everything I wanted, I put in the Planar Bestiary. I'd perhaps like to see some faction agents, along with however they update the Sigil factions.

In reading Curse of Strahd, a lot of elements in it really feel like a Roguelike game (most like Darkest Dungeon), intended to be played many times, what with the random Tarokka reading, Strahd's penchant for luring in adventurers over and over again, and the deadly horror setting. Obviously the...

Here's my response to the survey: Planescape Planescape Planescape Planescape Planescape Planescape!

I straight-up gave a level 1 party a Ring of Invisibility, complete with a Choker that coveted the ring and followed the party around. It was a short-lived pickup game, but it worked very well. They also ended up with a Mace of Terror at level 2, though the game didn't progress far enough for...

Assuming they make the save at the end of their turn, and are thus affected for at least 1 round, shouldn't the minimum average rounds be 1? Or is this a calculation for extra rounds?

I've been running The Great Modron March, interspersed with Well of Worlds and The Eternal Boundary, converted to 5e. It's very easy to convert 2e content to 5e, and I made a whole Planar Bestiary for the monster stats, which is the most time-consuming part. If I was going to redesign the...

In my own conversion of this adventure a while back, this is what I came up with for Shatterspike, since there's no standard "sunder" option. Shatterspike (Rare). Taken from a dead paladin in the Sunless Citadel, Shatterspike is an heirloom of another age. It a +1 longsword, and on a hit, the...

I've started a new campaign, running The Great Modron March updated to 5e, and while the adventure (and some others I'm interspersing in-between) includes various portals and portal keys, I think it'd be fun to get together a list of interesting portals and keys that I can just throw in as...

Got you covered there already (sort of): http://www.dmsguild.com/product/191955/Pocket-Summoner-Class :cool:

The Planar Bestiary has a bunch of Sigil-themed NPCs that work well as generic NPCs too.

I notice that pretty much all summoned creatures roll their own initiative and act accordingly. This makes sense in theory, and is very simple, but it's also kind of weird that if a summoned creature rolls a higher initiative than its summoner, it actually has to wait longer to take its turn...

In terms of fluff, I've sort of re-purposed the soulborn from a paladin that can be any corner alignment into more of "choose a cause and be all about that cause, whether it's your own personal goals, a god, a philosophy, or anything else" which is a little difficult to put into mechanics other...

I'll likely add some more fluff as the mechanics get more solid. I wanted to move away from alignment as a primary determining factor though, and turn the necrocarnate from "the worst evil imaginable" to "kind of spooky" to allow it as a real player option outside of pure evil games. I feel...

To be fair, it does give only ONE of the chosen benefits. But it is quite a bit more versatile than a paladin aura. Definitely looking into nerfing this. So long as they're trading an equally useful class feature for it, I don't think it's a big problem. You can multiclass and get heavy armor...

I'm back to working on my Magic of Incarnum update, which I plan to put up on the DMs Guild when it's done. I'm planning to add races and monsters, and perhaps some spells, but for now, the Incarnate class is fully implemented, though not all of the soulmelds are in. The Incandescent subclass...

Very cool. I just wish it was available when I ran the whole Sunless Citadel line updated to 5e. Of course, I started that during the playtest, so there's no real way this could have existed back then. :cool:

Hey! :p

Treat the game like improv. "Yes, and" your players when you can, and ask them to "yes, and" you and your plots. You are all storytellers.
