    Nearly PvP

    I used to encounter this all the time at cons. The game would be going great, then a couple guys (they always seemed to come in pairs) realize they have to leave to go to another event. So instead of just saying "sorry, we have to go" they decide to TPK. Fireballs on the party one time, and...

    Limiting Pregen Choices

    A spellcaster is generally fine as a pregen for new players provided there character's spells are pre-chosen and on a printout for the player. The one class I would definitely avoid, though, is the druid. Between spellcasting and wildshape, druids are terribly complicated and can be major...

    Creepy idea about unicorns....

    Even better! And like many parasites, it has a complicated lifecycle. The horse-head snail seeks out a human in which to inject its eggs. Then the implanted eggs affect the human's behavior and body chemistry, making them wistful and prone to wandering, at the same time emitting a pheromone...

    D&D 5E To fudge or not to fudge: that is the question

    I used to fudge, back when I did a lot of DMing, mostly to keep my players alive and sometimes to ensure that my "precious" plot goes as I wanted it. Now that I am 99% a player, I am glad that my dm rolls in the open and fudges nothing. Let the dice do their magic!

    D&D 5E Druid Gender Change?

    Due to sexual dimorphism, I would definitely allow druids to wildshape into different sexes of beasts. For example, male gorillas are much larger and stronger than females, female raptors are typically larger (and it is suspected that female carnosaurs were larger as well), male narwhals have...

    D&D 5E Most annoying / awesome magic items

    I used cursed weapons to great effect back in AD&D days, because they typically were cursed so you couldn't get rid of them. So basically you couldn't be disarmed. Captured and all your gear taken? Somehow that cursed longsword makes it way into your prison cell. -1 to hit and damage is way...

    D&D 5E Arcane Rules- What is your favorite "hidden" rule in 5e?

    My favorite is the bush-wood elf-lightfoot halfling hiding line. The wood elf hides behind a little bush ('cuz they can hide in lightly obscured natural terrain), and then the halfling hides behind the wood elf.

    D&D 5E Arcane Rules- What is your favorite "hidden" rule in 5e?

    Of course vultures can read and write. That's how they carrion a long-distance correspondence with their pen pals.

    D&D 5E So you are a drow prisoner and found a spider....

    Many of us have recently been captured by drow. It sucks, I know. The one saving grace is that while forced to do slave labor, you found a big hairy spider. It's pretty tame, but doesn't do much. Or does it? It can save your life! All you need to do is train it to write in its web "SOME...
