Hi, I received my copy of CoS today and I also buyed the fantastic map bundle from Mike Schley. But since the map of the Castle was done by other artists it is of course not included. Now there is this fantastic looking but absolutely useless poster map of the castle... Useless because every...

Hi, our current campaign is over and we're all excited to start with the Ravenloft campaign. To fill the gap til the release of curse of strahd, we decided to play a mini-campaign. This campaign will have ~8 sessions of 4-6 hours each. Now my first idea was to run the first part of out of...

Hi, as my Waterdeep-Campaign is nearly over, my group decided to play a gothic horror themed campaign. Now I want to stay in Faerun with this campaign and I have a few things you can help me with. 1) Where would you set this gothic horror campaign in faerun? I've thought about using the Land...

Hi, in my current campaign I've decided to comply with the wish of my players, which wanted to play all to way up to level 20. So... I wanted to make the last level end fight a big thing. So I've wondered if a CR 30 creature (which means Tiamat or a Tarrasque) is a good challenge for a 20th...

Hi, I've wondered if one of the PCs has unfinished business and is transformed into a ghost after it died. I really like this idea, since it opens a bunch of story opportunities. But from the mechanical side: Is the character still in posession of all abilities? Can a spellcaster still cast...

Hi, I'm planning a Halloween Horror Adventure for my next D&D Session next Sunday. The Campaign is a City Campaign in and around Waterdeep. Now, this is my first Horror Adventure I've ever written, so I want to make it quite short and easy. Just a little Adventure to give my players the chills...

Hi, I'm actually skimming over OotA. My actual group is playing in a Waterdeep campaign, but have to leave Waterdeep for an adventure. At the moment they are at the beginning of Level 4. Now I like the Idea of getting captured by drow and having to escape the Underdark. I wondered If you could...

Hi, My players are about to find a portal into the feywild. Unfortunately (for my players) this portal will be closed. But they find an engraving which tasks them with 3 tests. They must overcome this tests to gain access to the portal. Now, I've thought about basing these tests on the Code of...

Hi, I've read about the Deck of Many Things in the D&D 5e DMG and was quite interested in this magic item, so in performed some research. After a while I found out about Madness at Gardmore Abbey, which seems to be a good Adventure of the 4e era and a conversion to 5e of this module. As I...

Hi, at the moment I'm starting to run a Waterdeep Campaign. As I want to build in a few Dungeons in Undermountain I've started to search for Information about this giant dungeon complex. Now I'm not sure which of the two books Expedition to Undermountain from 3e or Halls of Undermountain from...

Hi, I'm about to start a Campaign in and around Waterdeep. Now I've heard that the 3rd Edition Guide Waterdeep: City of Splendors is a good choice as a source of information about Waterdeep. This would be no problem if im planning to play at the time which is described in the setting book, but...

Hi, My players will encounter a silver dragon and they need s.th. from him (Knowledge, an Item, ...). But before he helps them, they must prove themself worthy, i.e. they must pass a test of lawfulness. I'm not sure wether or not they know if they are tested. My problem is: I have no idea how...

Hi, as I'm actually reading through the recently released Princes of the Apocalypse Adventure Path there is one thing which gives me headache: Level Progression. I really like the idea, that the player's are free in their choice what to do and in which order, but it seems that the dungeons are...

Hi, I'm not sure what is the correct interpretation of the Bite Attack of the Giant Spider. The Target gets piercing Damage and the target makes a saving throw. Ok. Thats ok... But what happens if the Target is reduced to 0 hp as a consequence of the piercing damage? Are piercing and poison...

Hi, one of my gaming groups is now switching to 5e and we decided to play in the Forgotten Realms (Faerun of Course) but not around the sword coast. Now I've asked myself which region should I choose? I'm relatively new to the Forgotten Realms, so maybe you can recommend some regions? And...

Hi, I'm running two D&D 5e campaigns and have a lot of ideas for plots and so on. But I've found out that I'm not that good at detail work. I know there are many published adventures, campaigns and so on. But most campaigns are not generic enough to just put them into my ongoing campaing. Also...

Hi, I haven't found any Rules for Crafting Scrolls of Brewing Potions. Of Course, they are specified as magic items and for scrolls the Rules for crafting Magic Items could apply, but what about potions? The Player's Handbook mentions in the description of the Herbalism Kit "creating potions of...

Hi, I wanna start a urban "campaign" after my Players finish Lost Mine of Phandelver. Now I'm searching for an urban setting where I can put my ideas into. It is important to me that this is not a full fleshed out campaign, but instead a setting with many plot hooks, a good description of...

Hi, at the moment we are finishing the Tyranny of Dragons campaing. As we definitely want to play a new campaign, I'm searching for the next thing. First, in the 5e Release Schedule there is "Princes of Apocalypse", which is scheduled for mid/end of March. Sadly, there is no further...

Hi, I'm a GM and I've decided to use my Notebook at the gaming Table. I am doing this now for a few years and it always went nice, but now I want to play D&D 5e. The last game I've played was 13th Age and I'm used to have all Monsters as PDF. So I can just copy paste them to scrivener (which is...
