Wow.
I found myself hunting around so often that I finally did a filtered search just for humanoids on DDB, sorted by CR, and then made a... -

...Okay but do you really want to go back to doing that? Because I would much rather spend my time playing the game and less time...

Distracted DM reacted to Deadmanshand's post in the thread Level Up (A5E) What are your common house rules? with Like.
To clarify, I am using the name ultravision, but not the rules from 1E. I do not impose a sun-sickness penalty. I assume player...

Distracted DM replied to the thread D&D 5E (2024) NPCs, and the poverty of the core books.It does seem, sometimes, that 5e NPCs can't play by the same rules if they want to compete with 5e PCs. I don't love stuff like Arcane...
