Ginny Di addressed this very topic. Her video got me to thinking about creating characters without tragic backstories. To me, tragic backstories are fine, but they have become cliche'. So I'm challenging myself these days to come up with characters that aren't tragic. I've had some great...

Now that the new Forgotten Realms books are out, I'm wondering if they cover everything from the Sword Coast Adventurers Guide. Is that book still a keeper, or has everything from it been redone?

I had no idea the name had real-world origins. I always thought it was an X-Men thing. At least now I know why Stranger Things never had any copyright issues with the name. Speaking of Marvel Comics and the X-Men, here is their Hellfire Club.

The DM is being a stickler on the attunement rules too. sigh

I have a bit of a conundrum with my Spelljammer character's magic items. I'm playing an aberrant mind sorcerer/great old one warlock.We're using the 2014 rules. He has a custom-made telepathic helmet, an amulet of health that was a gift from a friend, a staff of frost, and a cloak of elvenkind...

First of all, you MUST play Bardcore's cover of Karma Chameleon. This is not optional. ;) Second, all as dwarves would be cool, but I almost want to see Mr. T as a Night Elf Mohawk. :D

From the outside. My youngest son is into Minecraft. I may have to ask him about that.

Does anyone know of any good art (not AI) that would work for a ranger's cabin in the woods? Something big enough for him and his tiger animal companion.

in D&D Beyond, can you customize a spellcaster's spell list with spells that are not spells for their class? For example, I want to add Find Steed and Find Greater Steed to a ranger's spell list. Is that possible in D&D Beyond?

As a follow-up to the other Nentir Vale thread, I wonder what other settings the Nentir Vale could be placed in. I had considered Exandria since the pantheons are so closely related, though I don't know the geography well enough to know where to put it. What setting would you place it in...

I have been playing a psionic halfling in my friend's Spelljammer game. This is using the 2014 rules. Basically, he was a street rat whose home burned down. He felt lonely, and a being reached out through the cosmos to comfort him. The being was a great old one, but a child, and he too felt...

I'm going to say find steed and find greater steed. Back in 2e, there was a kit in the Complete Fighter's Handbook called the beast rider. I liked it, as it allowed me to play a character who could ride his version of Battle Cat from He-Man. You also had an empathic link to it. That's what find...
