...there's a D&D Beyond forum? :oops:

The level does seem to follow half caster progression, in terms of spell levels known (2nd at level 5, 3rd at level 9, etc), at it follows the same basic rules as Paladins do (you prepare a number of spells equal to half your class level plus your relevant ability modifier, and can choose...

My players are requesting some content from WotBS (such as the custom subclasses) to be applicable to their characters on D&D Beyond. Is there a compendium of "homebrew" that can be added to my campaign, for them to choose from? Is it legal for me to transcribe the class features into...

The live game is moving a bit faster than the online one (not only is in-person play able to move a bit quicker, but we tend to play for a slightly longer duration), so while they started quite a bit later, they've just now caught and surpassed the first group. At the current rate, the live...

The battle for the tower is fierce, but once forces finally reach the rooftop, the collected soldiers are all subdued quickly, and the Wyvern (and its rider) hastily dispatched. Taking a moment to collect their breath, the heroes send word to the previous watchtower that it had been...

With the roof secured, the team raced downstairs, only to find an ambush waiting for them. In the cramped hallway of the fortress, it was difficult to gain ground, but slowly, the tide turned against the Ragesian forces. In time, the tower was retaken, the only survivor being the resident...

Updating for 2 sessions... At the audience with King Steppengard, the crew witnesses a prisoner being questioned, who seems confused and conflicted in his answers. The interrorgator, a gnomish woman, proclaims that the man - a clerk for Duke Gallo's proxy - is clearly being influenced, most...

Updating for 2 sessions... After the unnerving events that led to the flight from Bresk, the party spends an uneasy (yet mostly uneventful, aside from one disturbing dream) night in the Tiny Hut, about two miles beyond the castle walls. They awaken to Takasi's frantic warning that troops are...

Having been crudely forced out of the throne room for their insubordination towards the king, the party pauses in the great hall to discuss what's next. When Llorna, the Dashbogan envoy, comes to check on her friend and the group as a whole, she relates that the King hadn't always been so...

What... if... the shady organization is some remnant of the original Order of the Aquiline Cross? It would tie things to the Aquiline Heart strongly, let the new order (that Laurabec Adelsburg is part of) stand as a sort of counterpoint, it might make Rhuarc's actions that much more tragic...

As the weather clears, the team catches their breath. Torrent mourns the betrayal and death of her former mentor, while the two survivors are brought topside. Everyone travels to the Lyceum to report on their adventure, and crashes, hard. The next day is spent wrapping up the adventure...

Updating for the last two sessions... The next few days are spent spreading out across Dassen and speaking with other proxies, trying to gain their favor. Some situations are successful, others not so much... eventually, the Barbarian faces his past, in meeting with the Dashgoban envoy, who...

Descending into the chamber below, the team faces a squad of Ragesian soldiers and their Inquisitor master. The battle is heated (pun very intended) as a massive fireball rocks the heroes, but after some tense moments, the Inquisitor is knocked down, and forced to retreat. As the collected...

Established at the Golden Griffon tavern and inn just outside of the castle, the team settles into find out what was happening in town, and to possibly convince some of the local envoys to the king's court to support Seaquen's plight. Splitting up, they each tackle different goals. The cleric...

Overnight, the storm's winds intensify violently, making for a fitful night of rest. In the morning, Simeon provides what information he can: though the storm should be too small to support it, it seems to have formed a micro-hurricane, complete with an eye, centered over the old city...

After a few questions, the heroes learn that, only a few days ago, all of King Steppengard's children were murdered by various means, along with his wife. To compound the tragedy, their hearts were removed and destroyed, to make resurrection nearly impossible. In his rage and despair, the king...

For the record, I'm also finally solidifying plans on how the eventual conflict between the Aasimar Pal-Lock and his father will go down. Rather than have them go in against a standard celestial (like a Solar), I'm gonna go full "Biblically Accurate Angel" on them, dropping an Ophanim miniature...

I think that I'd only run a funeral if they party/players expressed interest in doing so. A PC death would probably warrant such, for example.

As the play begins, the party is regaled with Katrina's amateur analysis of the narrative points of the play, including what (in her opinion) is a ham-fisted attempt to parallel the story of Toteth Topec with the current struggle against Ragesia, particularly the various elemental sages who help...

Inspecting the bodies under the ice, and pooling their knowledge and skills, they make a series of disturbing discoveries. The three men killed here seem to be wearing official regalia of the house of Lade Dené, but aside from a small amount of personal items, have nothing of interest on them...
