I grabbed one character from a different setting. Made for some serious roleplay possibilities. Especially fighting the Sorcerer King in Dark Sun's lost city. FR: we are screwed! DS: OUR DEATHS WILL BE LEGENDARY DL: What? It's only one dragon!

I just thought of something you might want to at least mention in your game. As written everybody is from FR and you start plane hopping. Nobody is going to speak the same language. You can't expect Greyhawk common to be the same as Faerin common as Krynn common. Yes you can fix it with a...

Don't do that Don't give me hope. That module is possibly the greatest written. And starts with one of the hardest fights in DnD history. And we loved it.

Oh that's easy. So you don't have to pay for it. They don't have to pay writers to come up with new ideas, they don't have to play test it, you don't need continuity editors, just throw out the same rehashed stuff change a little bit of it for personal tastes and just ask people if they member...

Yes the only requirement is that they are of the prerequisite level. And then they get pulled into the adventure.

Silverhand having a different spouse. Werewolves in Dragonlance were the ones that got the immediate attention. Tasha's backstory is all over the place now. Especially putting her in the same room with Mordie. There are a few more but those are the ones that were brought to my attention

That would be a time honored D&D tradition

I changed it so that the wife was the traitor. And she wasn't actually the wife she was an agent of Big V. The party meets Kas in Ravenloft, so we don't have a surprise villain that the party has never encountered before in the Scooby-Doo reveal. Instead the traitor opens the door to all of the...

This is the part where DMs start hearing fortunate son as they remember all of the very loud and on point complaints from their players about the opening to Vecna Lives. Nothing says bad writing like a plot mandated TPK.

Most reviews I've seen have criticized it for just recycling plots from previous 5th edition modules and not expanding into other parts of the settings. You fight drow in the underdark. AGAIN Go to Death House to face Strahd. AGAIN Acerack has a new tomb. AGAIN. There's a fiendish...

The one suggestion I would highly recommend for everyone making a party that turned out to be incredibly popular with my group was to have everyone make a character from a different setting. Then the party gets a symbol by in my case and immortal from Mystara to deal with the threat. It led to a...

Which is a depressingly large number of artists

More like the Western continent. The princess art did map out huge chunks of the southern continent.

Oh I've used constitution for a dump stat when I hose a character's creation. I've played Stumpy McLunger more than once. The only thing that they shared other than a scorching case of consumption was a rather nasty overestimation of their fighting skills at low level.

3D6 straight down like the dice gods intended. Failing that 4d6 drop the lowest. I never do point buy or array those lead to cookie cutter characters.
