A version of the Shadowrun RPG setting that's more Urban Arcana and less Cyberpunk. The Pitch: Like the tides, magic began to seep back into the world, changing everything and everyone it touched. Beings and creatures of myth and folklore appeared among Men, the Beasts and the Wilds of the...

"Now that I have your attention..." :p

Another year, another GPG Annual to back. :) I am looking forward to checking out its' contents. Is the character on the front cover of this GPG Annual, a Kobold or a Dragonborn Adept? curious The character kind of looks like a 2024 Green Dragonborn. :)

Another thing about the OP's take on the deities, at least two Planescape factions would sit up and take notice of his initial post. The Athar and the Believers of the Source. ;) Both would pay Toril a visit, but for different reasons. The Athar would come to see if the deities of the Forgotten...

When a role-playing group plays in an adventure on any world within the Material Plane, they're playing in their own take of that world within the D&D Multiverse. ;) So, there are millions of Torils floating around. :p And the people living on that Toril think their Toril is the only one around.

The Time of Troubles was not the only catastrophic administrative meltdown among the gods to happen to those living in the Forgotten Realms. In an attempted upgrade of the Weave to Weave 2.0, a massive glitch caused by some divine malware (courtesy of Cyric and Shar) brings about the events...

My Bugbear character has Darkvision 90' thanks to Umbral Sight, and he's used it a number of times whenever I have him scouting ahead of the party. :) Very stealthily too. He is an ambush predator after all. :p

Sorry about that, we still are talking about light and vision mattering to PCs. I was wondering about how you, as a DM, would handle illumination if one of your players was a Gloom Stalker Ranger who wanted to use Umbral Sight. I ask because in my role-playing group, I am playing as a Bugbear...

Which combat maneuvers does your TWF fighter use from A5e that are synergistic with his fighting style? curious

What if you had someone who was playing a Gloom Stalker Ranger? Their Umbral Sight feature allows them to become 'invisible' to those relying on Darkvision to see in the darkness. This would be one instance where you have to know if someone is using a torch or a spell to shed some light to see by.

A5e's Combat Maneuvers are also supposed to help deal with the martial-spellcaster gap by being the equivalent of spells. It would be neat if there was a Combat Tradition for characters who want to dual wield.

The line between being an explorer and being an adventurer strikes me as being rather blurry.

I doubt that all of the locals are going to see an adventurer as a threat to their wellbeing. Some of them might look up at their adventurer and see them as an inspiration or as a source of information about the world beyond their point of light. Besides, if everyone hated and feared them, why...

Here is a link to all of the destinies your character in Level could be destined to have: https://a5e.tools/destinies These destinies come with game mechanics for following a destiny and achieving it.

Ditto for any organization like the Harpers or the Lords Alliance. Someone you can covertly or overtly ask for help when needed.
