    D&D General Mtg colors for class/subclass

    @yourfinallyawake welcome to the site. Not sure one can add colors to D&D classes because of alignment and anyone can be anything and there is always an example of someone seeing things different. I feel that clerics are white because they heal. Fighters are red because they deal big damage...

    We All Won – The OGL Three Years Later

    If we all won, does it also mean we all lost.

    What's the hardest attribute to effectively role-play?

    I find part of the game is having the whole table of players present all the time. I cannot recall the last time I pulled a player out to explain something secret. It is hard to play a low stat in INT, WIS, or CHA if you as a person is better or at least average in those stats. The same is if...

    Level Up (A5E) Broken armor and maintanance

    I'm guessing it is a DM call on what 'broken' means. There is stuff that needs repair and stuff that needs to be remade. If the RAW says you need a forge, then you need a forge. A sub-system of determining if something is broken to the point of being remade vs something that can be...

    D&D General Favourite adventures from Dungeon Magazine

    I remember the Mere of Dead Men series around issue 90. I liked the concept of sending groups to deal with the problem in the swamp and each adventure was isolated enough, but the players did not really care for one of them with some sort of astrology cult. There was also a few issues that...

    D&D 5E (2024) Lost Library of Lethchauntos AAR. My Magnum Opus Campaign?

    I looked at this adventure but not sure which set of monsters to use. Wonder how many people use something other than the ones listed. I was thinking the bullywugs over the goblins.

    Do you have kids of your own?

    My son is in college and on his semester away so will not be going to the local convention in a couple weeks. My daughter is graduating high school this year and wants nothing to do with RPGs. Same as my wife, but I still get to play with my father who is almost 80.

    D&D General "True Neutral": Bunk or Hogwash

    I tend to see people playing a Neutral PC and then acting another way, which is according to my definitions and not theirs on what I think it means. Most of these PCs are acting more good because the other PCs are doing the same and saving the village and such. The player seems to just want...

    Moya, ‘the World’s First Biomimetic Robot’ Emulates Human Features Down to Body Temperature

    If you have 5 of them, you now have a real game going. At least a real fake game, or something. Doesn't sound all that bad to fill in some places. I want a robot dog that is better than the things they have now. My current dog is technically my wife's dog and she only marginally takes care...

    Homebrew Do people in your game world put cheese on their apple pies??

    Poor people in my game tend to eat oatmeal and soup of varied flavors. I had coastal poor eating lobster and other bottom-feeders. Most of the time the PCs do not interact with them. The working class still eat a lot of soups and stews with bread to fill. A stew in a breadbowl tends to be...

    Homebrew Do people in your game world put cheese on their apple pies??

    My father had a PC who had a background of making mushroom beer and was always looking for the perfect recipe.

    Pathfinder 1E Outsiders and their "down" time.

    Torturing the captured townsfolk they took as prisoners. This might give advantage to sneaking in- with all the screaming and such. Another room can have a table with a map of the region and where they want to go next, which happens to be the PCs town.

    Homebrew Do people in your game world put cheese on their apple pies??

    I've heard of it being from New England, but never seen it other than on a menu. Maybe it is like grilled cheese with mayo instead of butter, or banana and peanut butter sandwiches.
