As someone who first played 1E D&D in 1986, that is why I don't have any desire to return to earlier editions of D&D. I was obsessed with wizards when I first started and I remember casting my 1-2 spells and then being reduced to using a sling. :(:mad: I was not a fan of 4E but the innovation...

I never played the original Torg, but I played Torg Eternity for the first time in November 2020 and I love it! It is the finest attempt I've seen at a cross-genre RPG. I always wanted to play a superhero/anti-hero character but never got the chance because none of the groups I played with...

That's awewsome. Genies are one of my favorite monsters and the sha'ir was my favorite thing in Zakhara.

While D&D could get even more popular than its current boom, a slump will eventually come. As a mid-40s gamer I've seen both boom and slump periods for D&D before. I expect I will see at least one more slump and one more D&D renaissance in my lifetime.

One character idea I had was to play a genie warlock named "Anthony" with a patron named "Jeannie" who bears a strong resemblance to Barbara Eden. Or was that Christina Aguilera? Jeremy Crawford said that when the UA genie warlock was released players were interested but the consensus was it...

This is the first time my favorite choice won one of these survivor threads.

Ah, I see. I wasn't sure which Maerimydra fall it was set after. In that case, I think it is already canon that Kossuth had gained a foothold in the city? Perhaps noble efreet are looking for warlocks instead of noble dao.

Power abhors a vacuum. If Lolth's power is broken, who moves in? Vhaeraun, already mentioned, is an obvious one. I wonder if even some of the evil non-drow gods might see this as an opportunity. Part of Shar's portfolio is the underdark and she already killed Ibrandul and masqueraded as him...

Cleric Order Domain 10 Druid Circle of Stars 14 Druid Circle of Wildfire 2 Fighter Rune Knight 11 Warlock The Genie 10 3 divine subclasses made it into the Top 5 and 4 divine subclasses made it into the top 10 (Twilight Cleric finished 9th).

Well, as a real D&D player, the idea of very low-level characters defeating a beholder really stretches disbelief. Even though a general audience ignorant of D&D would not notice. Yeah, creative license for TV and all that. But I would be rolling my eyes and/or laughing. Also, given the...

Cleric Order Domain 17 Druid Circle of Stars 17 Druid Circle of Wildfire 12 Fighter Rune Knight 15 Paladin Oath of the Watchers 5 -- who thinks the castoff Night's Watch order were paladins? lol Ranger Fey Wanderer 17 Warlock The Genie 12

If the show is really "starting small" it would be ridiculous to show a beholder in the first season. It would be like showing Daenerys' Season 8 dragons in Season 1. But a mind flayer as the big bad lurking in the shadows could be an effective antagonist for low-level PCs. Especially given...

Artificer Armorer 8 Cleric Order Domain 17 Druid Circle of Stars 21 -- more approachable for new players than most druid subclasses. Druid Circle of Wildfire 16 Fighter Rune Knight 21 Paladin Oath of the Watchers 3 -- who watches the watchers? Ranger Fey Wanderer 17 Warlock The Genie 12

If it is going to be in Faerun, small and have a significant Underdark component, perhaps it will be set in the Dalelands? Many small towns to serve as home base. And Cormanthor is nearby where there are supposedly numerous entrances into the Underdark.

Lol, that reminds me of a story. My father called my younger brother "the flim-flam man" because he would find some Magic The Gathering sucker (usually an elementary school age player) and trade his common or uncommon cards for hard-to-find rares. This was in the early days of Magic when...
