So, am I hearing "get rid of the Op Attack rule" to make everyone more mobile? Or "if you whiff, the least you can do is draw your opponent's reaction for the round so she can't Op Attack anyone else?"

Nope. Too realistic for my escapism.

My takeaway here is that whoever Grok is, he shouldn't be trusted with making magic items.

But that dwarf is the epitome of D&D player-characters. DM: "While you stand on the precipice, there's a deep rumbling from below. The trees sway, some crack and tumble. A colossal dragon yawns upward at you, for disturbing its . . . " Dwarf PC: "I attack! Rolling initiative!"

So to summarize: "Should all characters be able to do all things?" or "Are class-exclusive abilities okay?" It seems obvious that a character should do things better as character options are directed toward those things. That's what character creation is, right? (Well, ignoring the fluff...

Well, "champions" does have an A and an I in it. Could be WotC's term for non-human game masters.

So glad Matt Mercer landed the Strahd gig! Maybe his next game will be called Stakeheart? Seriously . . . was Strahd always an elf?

That partially answers my question: doesn't it take marketing to get to $1M? I haven't seen peep about this game. It's good to see murder-hoboing take a backseat in the name of "cozy."

I think this is a related issue for me. I assume in this situation, the player shows up a week later and asks something like, "what happened, and what did my character do?" And your response is, "you had downtime! You tell us (right now!) what you were up to during the last adventure." I'm...
