Charlaquin replied to the thread D&D General You Were Rolling Up a New Character, and Just Rolled a 3. What Is Your Reaction?.My initial reaction? It’s a disaster. But, I would probably get over that pretty quickly, especially if the rest of the spread was good...

Charlaquin replied to the thread D&D General The Monsters Know What They're Doing ... Are Unsure on 5e24.I’m sure you aren’t the only one. I do think that’s a great level range for a climax, and the climax is often the most memorable and...

Charlaquin replied to the thread D&D General The Monsters Know What They're Doing ... Are Unsure on 5e24.Why anyone would want to skip them, I don’t know. The early tiers are the most fun in my opinion, why would you want to shorten the time...
