    Pratchetts Discworld Story Poll - what is best in life?

    Small Gods was my first Discworld book and remains one of my favorites. But I had to vote for Night Watch, my absolute favorite! Go Vimes!

    How to make a digital character sheet?

    Let's say I've made my own custom stripped-down version of 5e, which folks often do. For those of you who have done so, how do I go about making a digital character sheet? Not just a sheet that can be printed (I've already done that), but one that can be interacted with by a player. Maybe even...

    Things you don’t like about DMing

    Using prepared adventures always gives me the impatient wiggly feeling of doing homework (I was terrible at getting homework done), while creating adventures always gives me the exciting urgent feeling of creating art.

    Things you don’t like about DMing

    Most of the stuff in this thread (learning rules, organizing maps and counters, helping quiet players) are things I do enjoy about DMing. What I really, really hate is scheduling games.

    D&D General Greek heroes as D&D characters

    Hercules is definitely a barbarian! He is defined by his incredible strength, endless fortitude, and blind rage in which he (checks notes) kills his whole family

    Life path system in-game

    Taylor Navarro Joins Wizards of the Coast as D&D Designer

    Just a general reminder that whatever you thought of the original Radiant Citadel book, Taylor Navarro did not write it. She was a writer on a companion piece. I think it's really exciting that WotC is hiring a lot of new folks with a variety of RPG publishing experience! I also notice that the...

    Comic Book General Thread

    I've fallen pretty hard away from superhero comics, but I'm a pretty consistent indie comic book reader. Some of my recent favorites have been: John Muir: to the Heart of Solitude A biography of John Muir, it made me want to drop everything and go hiking. The Library Donkey of Cordoba...

    D&D General Batman class

    There should definitely be a Batman RPG in which everyone plays as Batman but the different classes represent different versions of the character. One class is the Adam West campy Batman, another one is the Dark Knight grim and gritty Batman, psychedelic Grant Morrison Batman, etc.

    D&D General Batman class

    He is a lawful good paladin. He is a chaotic neutral ranger. He is a neutral good rogue.
