A cloud follows the PC at all times. The powers of the cloud are trigged by yelling old man phrases at it while shaking a fist in the air. For example, "kids these days" or "back in my day!"

The DM doesn't know either. This isn't an authored story.

In 5e, a first level wizard knows that one day, when he is high enough level, he can simply chose to add Wish into his spell book. So what happens when the first level player says, "I know that one day, I, Castor Magington, and my brave party will reach high level and acquire the Sword of...

No No, no, no Oh dear god No

I find the 5e makes perfect sense if you just assume its running on Soulcalibur physics.

All the DMs in my group follow this basic houserule: "When my wife starts to look bored, a fight breaks out." That could be a random encounter, a bar fight, a drinking contest, or anything that gets the dice rolling, whatever the DM finds appropriate in that instant. It ensures a healthy mix...

I know DMs who say you should show rather than tell and they are all cowards.

Djinn & Tonic: You'll wish you drank less last night

As DM, my players finished our 4th 5e Ravenloft campaign, which was our 2nd campaign to get to level 20, and which was the culmination of an ongoing storyline that began when 5e released 8 years ago. The overall arch went Ravenloft (Grand Conjunction 2e conversion) -> Ravenloft (Curse of...

Record of the Final Fantasy of the Slayers of Diablo in Lodoss

"A Little Bit of Knowledge" is the best introductory adventure of all time. I run it whenever I start a new Darksun campaign.

When it comes to ears, I always think of this passage from the OVA RPG: Strange Ears: While exceptions certainly exist, when a given anime needs to present a fantasy race, an alien species, or a robotic construct, it is common to eschew the weird and bizarre for a very simple visual cue...

Why?

The best character my wife ever played was a Tabaxi Celestial Chain Warlock named Felinna with an Imp familiar named Luna. Because Felinna got her powers from a unicorn, Luna wore a plush unicorn outfit. As Felinna had eldrich spear, the invocation doubling the range of eldrich bolt, Felinna...

I bet a Cowboy Bebop Spelljammer campaign would be fun. See you space wizard.

「Flight」, 「Magic Caster’s Blessing」, 「Infinity Wall」, 「Magic Ward: Holy」, 「Life Essence」, 「Greater Full Potential」, 「Freedom」, 「False Data: Life」, 「See Through」, 「Paranormal Intuition」, 「Greater Resistance」, 「Mantle of Chaos」, 「Indomitability」, 「Sensory Boost」, 「Greater Luck」, 「Magic Boost」...

Goblin Slayer is the best D&D anime since Lodos War, and I will never ever recommend it to anyone.

Attaching a subclass to a fighter and calling it a warlord is like bringing a sex doll into the bedroom and calling it a threesome. It works out mechanically but it just doesn't feel the same, and it certainly isn't official.

I 100% agree with you. That's why I went with Final Fantasy 2/4 because that is the American release where the series visibly steered away from being a direct D&D game. D&D had a tremendous influence on the development of videogames (and still does). However, since the original Diablo...

Final Fantasy 2/4 came out in 1991. The healing system in that game (and nearly every JRPG after that) is the same as the healing system 5e has now. If one of your party members was reduced to 0 hp, you either cast "Life" (a low level spell) or used a "Phoenix Down" (a 100gp potion) to...
