I feel good about taking Remove Curse at level 5.

For example, after their character reaches 20th level and has amassed immense wealth, someone who takes issue with their lack of concern for their parents (perhaps a deity that can read their thoughts) could use Wish to delete their wealth and have them reset to level 1, with the qualifier that...

Mom is Titania. Have 10,000 kids.

Brave, IMO. Beginning at level 3, every first round = Rope Trick for my mage. Lots of ways to rationalize it. Combat is triggering and he needs his safe space. Lost his car keys and he’s pretty sure they’re in that portal somewhere. Too cute to die. Party won’t have to expend resources healing...

My PCs use it for visual privacy from other party members. They have Dispel Magic, but they don’t want to see that.

In that vein, I plan on using Wish so that for certain Influence actions, the NPC is always Willing, never Hesitant nor Unwilling. Of course, the wish may not be granted or there could be monkeypaw. I just need the person playing the rogue to describe how they’re attempting to hide behind the...

I’ve recently gone the other direction. One of my groups wants to play 1e and I try to have one ideal character species/class regardless of edition. Haven’t read much about 1e, but I think only humans can be magic-users without any level restriction. So the plan is for my ideal build to be human...

Boo. Hot lives matter.

Sorcerers like power (pg. 33). Pretty expensive. Plus, you would ideally want to Subtle Counterspell as well, so even more expensive, at least until level 20. And the baddie keeps their spell slot. And your reaction is spent. And you’re relatively close to the baddies. My bard will be cheering...

You can hurt their feelings with a nasty Sending.

Evereskan finger talk.

Take sorcerer levels 1-4 first. At sorcerer 4 take Eldritch Adept - Pact of the Tome with EB as one of the cantrips. EB will then count as a sorcerer spell and work with Innate Sorcery. It’s admittedly clunky.

I’d pitch my pre-generated rulings to the DM, which would be that the pre-gens are fake news and that a band of female elves who are totally into my non-pre-generated character come to his aid when needed, with “as needed” defined by my character.

This old thread: Is there anything stopping you from creating food and water with Prestidigitation? gets into creating food and water with Presty. For 5.5, I think one could make the RAW argument that Druidcraft could let you do something similar except the stuff created with Druidcraft could...

Does the sensory effect of Druidcraft last forever, short of a weird use of Wish? It’s instantaneous, so it can’t be dispelled and the caster can’t dismiss it. The food and water from Create Food and Water sticks around, but at least you can move it. The spectral dancing fairies would persist in...
