    D&D 5E (2024) Opinions on the Topaz Dragon Reverse Wings?

    Am I the only person who doesn't may much attention to dragon colour in D&D? I mostly just grab the miniature that tickles my fancy and then grab a stat block that suits my needs foe the adventure at hand. I'm not gonna pass up a sweet miniature because it doesn't look like official WotC art!

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    I literally just finished redesigning WPM to make it much more plausible in my campaign, and posted the PDF over in "Your Last Adventure in Photos" after someone asked about it. Plausibility is a matter of taste. Personally, I like things to tmake sense within the parametres of the setting. The...

    D&D General Players Decide when to Level Up

    I recognize that this is a very group dependent decision, but I love it, especially for an experienced group! Right now we do it as a groupd discussion but it is ultimately my call; I want to try just handing it entirely to the players, the as the OP did. For my home game. Not for my beginner...

    D&D General Your last adventure in photos.

    Here's the PDF of my White Plume Island Adaptation, if it's useful to anyone:

    D&D General Your last adventure in photos.

    Ohmigosh - I changed virtually the entire thing and just kept the map and the basic premise of an archamge's lost lair. My write up is 12 pages long. In small print. I love WPM, but it very much shows its age in that, plot-wise, it is pretty nonsensical. In this version, set for a party of 6...

    D&D General Your last adventure in photos.

    Last game was super fun - the party had finished up a huge arc, so spent a few days doing sand box-type stuff. They geared up, partied, and finished off two minor adventure hooks they had acquired over the past few weeks. First they finally located alleged treasure cave on a crude map they had...

    D&D General Does anyone recall coming across any magic weapons that return when thrown...other than Dwarven Thrower, Hammer of Thunderbolts or magic boomerangs?

    This is a holdover from the current rules, as officially published in Tasha's and currently available to artificers as one of their infusion options on DDB: In fact, my spouse's artificer took this infusion to help out the barbarian in the party. In their interpretation, as soon as the weapon...

    D&D 5E (2024) Opinions on the Topaz Dragon Reverse Wings?

    Looks dumb, like an obviously bad design. Not that dragons could actually fly if the wings were facing the correct way (magic aside), but this just looks like a miniature with the wongs glued on backwards by mistake. It's weird, sure, but not interesting or imaginative weird. Just...backwards...

    Worlds of Design: Only Human

    I don't worry too much about species' populations in my settings, unless it is going to be a specific plot point (like they are on the verge of extinction, or are being targeted for some reason). Otherwise, nations are defined more by their cultures, politics, and geography. Some areas do tend...

    D&D 5E (2024) Can a Warlock who swaps out Pact of Chain keep his familiar?

    I would rule against it - the player is trying to eat his cake and have it too. It also goes against the intent of the invocation, IMO. Plus, allowing it encourages players to shop around for other advantages they can get by swapping around pacts and keeping some of the advantages of the swapped...

    D&D 5E (2024) Tomb of Annihilation: likes and Dislikes

    It's got a zombie t-rex. Anything after that is gravy.

    What’s a song that makes you cry (not just from sadness, but from feeling too much)?

    And this one always inspires me, too. Not much of a cryer, but I get feels.
