    D&D General Why do we color-code Dragons?

    I’ve never had a problem with color coded dragons (or color coded creatures/enemies in general). Having said that, I’ve been expanding the lore of my dragons and giving them other names the different dragon species go by, sometimes with overlapping common names for different species that...

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    I feel like this topic is just one of many examples of different people having different expectations/preferences to how the fantasy/story/immersion/"whatever else you want to put here" of there games are achieved. I have played in games where Warlock pacts/patrons are not important at all in a...

    D&D 5E (2024) Rate D&D 2024

    I gave it a 9. There are a few changes I don't care for, but overall I like many of the improvements that the revision brought to the game. I'd give the 2014 version a 7.5-8 rating.

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    I'm not as big a fan of normal urban or cyberpunk style genres, or genres of Sci-fi that lack fantastical or cosmic themes in their games/stories. I love fantasy and magical forces and crazy monsters and grand cosmic themes and cosmologies both whimsical and eldritch.

    D&D 5E (2024) 5e GMs: Do/Have/Would You Start Above 1st Level? (Note: Cannot change your vote.)

    Outside of one shots, most of the campaigns I have ran/been in have either started at level 1 or level 3.

    Things the Report button is NOT for

    The small handful of times I have used the report button has been for something along these lines. A poster or group of posters started getting a bit heated in a thread that is very fast pace and with a lot of passionate debate/discussion happening. This can make it easier to get riled up when...

    D&D General How often do you use Homebrew in your own games?

    So much homebrew, so little time.

    D&D 5E (2024) What books would you like to see (in 2026 and beyond)?

    Honestly, anything that isn't just adventure anthology/campaign books. The ones with little to no new items, mechanics, or monsters. I have no use for adventures, official or 3pp, as they all suck.

    Worlds of Design: Only Human

    Humans in my world a very, very rare as they are not native to the material world of Salvera and have only really arrived to the realm roughly a decade ago alongside a outsider dragon god that then immediately joins my world's pantheon. And even then, they have been "blessed" with a small bit of...

    D&D 5E (2024) Opinions on the Topaz Dragon Reverse Wings?

    Here also is the concept art that would be turned into this piece. The backwards wings are more visible here.

    D&D General Dragonborn In Your Game (A Poll)

    Dragonborn in my world can commonly be born with or without tails. Vestigial wings are less common but can still happen. I have been workshopping racial/species feat trees for dragonborns that can allow them to have working wings and tails that you can attack with and even be prehensile...

    D&D 5E (2024) Opinions on the Topaz Dragon Reverse Wings?

    I love it, and I'm really happy to see the weirdness of the gem dragons being kept and even leaned into more in the art.

    D&D 5E (2024) Purple Dragon Knight as a background?

    Cormyr should be wiped of the map and become the ruined lair of an Amethyst dragon, with the remnants of the population forced to become the dragon's services and soldiers. The PDK background is for those that were raised to be one of these soldiers. ;)

    As a GM, which monster do you find the most difficult to role-play?

    Honestly for me it's whatever monsters don't immediately intrigue me with their standard lore. However, half the time I end up changing the lore for a lot of these creatures that then makes me appreciate their standard lore more over time (even if I like my new lore more).
