Unrealistic? Yeah, but it would be cool! I'd love it if WotC did their own official "OSR" game based on classic D&D. Yeah, yeah, I know...

That was me. OSR sometimes stands for "Old School Rules" but sometimes the "R" stands in for Renaissance or Revival. It's about rules ...

Yes . . . . Demiplane manages to support multiple systems with a very similar interace to D&D Beyond. It's very possible, but of...

He was also the ruler of his domain in Krynn.
