    D&D 5E Magic item attunement, like-dislike?

    For the over-the-top, dual-implement-wielding, high magic campaign I'm DMing next, I'll probably drop the attunement limit altogether.

    D&D 5E Magic item attunement, like-dislike?

    I'm ok with keeping a lid on magic items with the 3 attunements rule, though it does feel a bit odd from a roleplaying and fantasy perspective. "Sorry, Gandalf, you can be attuned to your staff, robe, and cloak, but not your scarf. Or your hat. That's too many. Laws of magic, or something, I...

Despite there being no "true" defender role or class, we almost always have someone who plays a character with the Protector fighting style, Sentinel feat, and/or Shield Mastery feat, to...

    D&D 5E Different ways to handle death (and resurrection)

    I like the story elements you are introducing to your campaign regarding death and the consequences of resurrection. Perhaps to lessen the severity of the mechanical penalties, you could also introduce a temporary or permanent remedy to the condition of the resurrected—a religious penance to...

    D&D 5E Has anyone used the firearm rules in the dmg?

    For two months, I've been running a fantasy colonial period D&D campaign, drawing inspiration from Solomon Kane stories, so I've been using the DMG gunpowder weapon rules, along with a few house rules: So far, these rules have worked out well for us.
