    D&D 5E What makes each setting unique?

    Hi all, I'm about to introduce a new group of gamers to DnD, and we've decided to vote on which campaign setting to use. I'm not that familiar with the lore and details about the settings so I come to you for help: what are, in your opinion, the thing that makes each one of the DnD settings...

    D&D 5E Can you Dodge and Attack on the same turn?

    Some class features (such as Monk's Patient Defense) or situations (such as being mounted) can allow for a character to take a Dodge action without using his actual action for the turn. That way, a Monk could use a bonus action so that all attacks against him have disadvantage until his next...

    D&D 5E Expanding Rise of Tiamat: did someone come up with stats for Galvan?

    Hi, everybody! I'm about to start running Rise of Tiamat during March after a short hiatus, and my players loved (my slightly tweaked version of) Hoard so much that we've talked about stretching the module up to 17th or 18th level Right now my plan is to expand some of the plot hooks listed in...

    D&D 5E Converting Primeval Thule to 5e - which version is easier to do?

    So, I'm starting a new 5e game on January and I'd like players to choose which setting we're gonna game in, and I think Primeval Thule is the kind of setting that'll appeal to most of them. I'm planning to get a PDF copy soon, but I'd like to know which version is easier to convert to 5e- PF...

    D&D 5E Running HotDQ with three players and no healer in the party. Any advice?

    I'll be starting HotDQ in about two weeks with a group of three players (incompatible schedules shrinked our original group of five), whose characters are a Fighter, a Monk and a Warlock. Any advice on what to have in mind when running the adventure? Should I adjust encounters to be easier? If...

    Race+Class suggestions for a LOT of pregens?

    I'll start running the ToD campaign on late September/early October at a local gaming store, for up to a maximum of eight players, most of whom are total newbies (at least when it comes to 5e). To avoid handing out "dump characters" (i.e. the ones who nobody wanted to pick) to latecomers...

    D&D 5E Cure Wounds: does it heal amputees?

    Honest question: a Cleric finds a traveler down the road who has just escaped from a goblin cave, where he's been kept alive while the monsters slowly ate small pieces of him. Can the Cleric just cast Cure Wounds and make his fingers and/or hand magically reappear? I'm leaning towards "no", but...

    D&D 5E Starter Set - how many sessions did it took your group to finish the adventure?

    Just curious here: I'm interested to know, for those folks who already finished the adventure (or are about to), how many sessions did it took you? Bonus XP if you also tell me how many sessions per Part. :)

    D&D 5E [LMoP] My Players just cakewalked through Part 1 (Spoilers)

    I'm running the Starter Set adventure with six players (five of them are using the pregens and one a Human Wizard who is really not much of a combatant) and so far they're having an easy time with every encounter up to Redbrands Hideout (which they'll assault next session). I've read about the...

    D&D 5E Dispel Magic's Ability Check question

    The entry for Dispel Magic in the Basic Rules states: Does the caster add his/her proficiency bonus to the Ability Check or not? I would say yes, but I'm not 100% sure.

    D&D 5E Silly question regarding Opportunity Attacks and Movement

    I'm getting ready to run LMoP this Sunday and I have this doubt regarding how these two rules interact with one another: If a creature takes a move action to leave a PC's reach and the OA hits, does this mean it cannot continue its movement? I'm not sure about the intent of "interrupts"- it...
