    D&D General D&D Red Box: Who Is The Warrior?

    Yes, I agree; or I want to agree. I mean, I'm offended by the miniature but I wasn't going to buy it anyway.* (Maybe I could buy it then return it.) I could also try and convince people who were going to buy it to not buy it. So please don't buy it. However, it sometimes seems like my offense...

    D&D General Effect of Druids on Scientific Knowledge in your Campaign?

    My fanasty world is actually flat! and the sun does indeed travel in a giant arc over it each day. I don't tell my players this. They can live in their own strange delusions.

    D&D General D&D Red Box: Who Is The Warrior?

    This really does feel like an unnecessary slap in the face.

    I think Salvador Dali said something like this.

    Get it off of that pedestal! It's going to fall and break! I can't watch anymore.

    D&D General Mark Finn: All Gaming is Pastiche

    That was a nice read. Thank you. I've always tried to use tropes in my games because I find that We, as players or the game both Player and Dungeonmaster, know intuitively how to play as those stereotypes. We know how to react to monsters and what to do when we are confronted with a set of...

    D&D General D&D Class Test- Which character class suits you?

    I'm a mage. "You appear to have two or more equally prominent matches...Whether you really are an equal fit for all of these characters or you just happened to get an equal score on all of them, we are unable to say; we are therefore also unable to give you a more personalized description."

    D&D 5E What Are Your Favorite Short Adventures and Collections for 5e?

    I enjoy running the one-shot adventures from the Jeff Ashworth books. The Crimson Oubliette from Kobold Press is my backpocket game...always ready to run it in a pinch. I get good use out of the Candlekeep Mysteries.

    D&D 5E Player Hit Points

    I like to randomize my characters because I like the character to be little bit out of my control. It makes the character feel more real somehow. Like it has a life of its own.

    D&D 5E Player Hit Points

    That's exactly what Shadowdark does. You roll for class features.

    D&D 5E Player Hit Points

    I let the Player choose between rolling or taking the average. However, I also give them two extra hit points if they choose to roll.

    D&D General From now on in my games, Black Dragons and Dragon Turtles are the same species.

    I like 'expendable stick'. I picked up a good sized one once to help it across the road. I am still amazed by how far they can reach over the top of the shell in a fury of hiss-filled snapping. Yikes!

    D&D General From now on in my games, Black Dragons and Dragon Turtles are the same species.

    A quote from Moonrise Kingdom that always made me giggle, "They'll bite you if you put your finger in their mouth." Yep, indeed they probably will. Then again, I'd probably bite you if you stuck your finger in my mouth.

    D&D 5E Converting Old Adventures

    I brought this up at a Pathfinder Society game I was running and shocked all the players. They melted my heart with all their puppy-dog eyes so I let them off with a warning. We play despite the rules.
