Sorry, a Fiddler to me needs to have some sort of explosive munition (see Moranth) expertise...

Yunru, you are correct in your idea's to optimize. They just don't fit my particular vision. With him having a sage background, I wanted him to have a modicum of intelligence. Hex + eldritch blast + quicken is a pretty mean combo. I definitely will be using a focus in the shape of a bow to...

I don't want to go EK due to character reasons, but it would raise my total to 10 Cantrips: Name: Verrin Baase Class: Fighter 3 / Warlock 7 Background: Sage (discredited scholar) Race: Human Sex: Male Age: 47 Alignment: CN Languages: Common via Human Elven via Human Dwarven via Sage Celestial...

After reading everyone's posts, I realized that I was trying to be too many things at once. I wanted to be an arcane archer with front line capabilities. I really wouldn't be helpful in the form of a tank as my strength wouldn't allow me to wear plate and soak up a lot of hits so I am thinking...

Our group is fairly combat-oriented and that makes what you say even more impactful as I would want to have hex up quite often and therefore more concentration spells wouldn't make too much sense. I will look at all of the spells again, thank you for your thoughts. Thanks to all for your...

As young boy Verrin Baase was often picked on by the larger boys in Loudwater, teased and tormented when he wanted to join in on the games they were playing. He didn't have the strength and stamina to keep up in athletic endeavors, so he spent his time practicing with weapons, reading about the...

Couldn't agree more with the sentiment. I think 10 sp hidden in a sock deep in the dresser would be more appropriate :)

Thank you for sharing your world with us. Great work with this module and continued success!

I am going to combine these two posts. I love the idea of sabotaged portal and have the perfect culprits. I will allow the group to make a perception check to notice the unknown threat (2 sorcs/wizards) along with other nearby riffraff and if they care to do nothing then once they pass...

This Sunday I am going to be running a party with 3 extra players who are going to be starting out at Lvl 1. The remaining 3-4 members are levels 6-7. The three level ones are new to 5e but played a while back in other editions. The challenges in front of the 6-7's are more than deadly to the...

I think my table attempts to perfect the "Party Split™" as it happens so often and they make it out unscathed most of the time.

I guess the age of the character would have determined the stink he made showing up...

Thanks to everyone for their input. I had not really taken the Deck's power into account, and I really hadn't taken the epic natural of this opportunity for the PC. I did have the fiendish tone in mind and because it was card was thrown at the PC with absolute hatred (and negative energy) as...

I use line of sight and depending on target size the amount of cover granted...crit fumble into melee = dmg to ally.

Damn convenient those falling rocks...

So I have been DM'ing a campaign for a few weeks and as our party wasn't it's full strength another member DM'ed a side adventure so I could get a little playtime in. End of the night we end up fighting a demonic jester who threw empowered cards where if struck you had to draw from the Deck of...

So often does our group find ourselves walking this very line...session after session after session.

About four sessions back a Sorc and my Rogue-self decided to pledge ourselves to King Witchthorn (an Arch Fey) to complete a task (given in secret to us without the knowledge of the other members of the party) he needed in order to gain some protection against a large dragon residing in some...

Thank you for posting this. We have a bunch of spell casters in our group and new players at that. I think this just helped speed up some rounds and provide better understandings of the spells. /salute

Hi All, Just ran my second session as a DM and I need help on figuring the XP that I should distribute. Party Make Up: 3 - 5th levels 1 - 4th levels Plan: Initiation of a party member into the Grey Society (necromantic group). Should be simple ceremony with one crazed adept willing to die...
