Except that's 100% wrong. They had the option to use a wish and just leave. They had the option to handle the planar issue. They had the option to seek out a rival archfey and try to talk it into getting them off the plane. They had the option to try and locate a natural crossing between the...

Not spread over 3 levels it isn't. They might do for a single level worth of psion spells, but still seems a bit short.

Heaven forbid lore actually means something. You want a baby dragon rider, get it. Just don't make it the purple dragon knight. Then everyone is happy.

Because otherwise nobody would be able to tell that psionics were being used, which is a balance issue. 3e solved it by having sights, smells, and sounds happen when psionics were being used.

I'd rather they balance it another way, like giving psions a d4 hit points or something.

I've long done this, but Acolyte has cemented it as an official option in 5e.......in my games the vast majority of priests aren't clerics. Clerics have that special level of faith/blessing/favor/whatever that allows them spellcasting. Priests have a lot of faith and devotion(for the most...

It doesn't. The system is the system. 5e isn't going to change just because @TwoSix is making changes to how he runs things and enjoys it that way.

I remember you saying this in another thread a while back. It sounds like a blast.

Jersey? :p

Er, none of that changes the progression or abilities. The fighter still progresses from 1st level to 20th level, gaining the exact same abilities/choices as every other fighter, at the exact same levels.

Every once in a while someone posts a response to someone who has me blocked and I reeeeaaaaallly want to know the context behind it. Well done!

You brought up NPCs as annoying because they have the same abilities, progression, etc. as every other one of their type. I was just pointing out that the same issue occurs with PCs, which I also find annoying. For clarity, I also find identical NPCs to be annoying.

Granny, Sam Vimes, The Librarian, and the Silver Horde top my list. No particular member of the horde makes the list, but collectively they are my favorite.

So which game in all the world running the PHB classes can I join and not progress my fighters in exactly the same manner as every other game running PHB classes? Besides, if you guys are going to be pedantic about them being spread out over many campaign worlds, then I would probably have to...
