I know the feeling, my characters are cursed the same way generally, but particularly in failing Wisdom saves :cautious: I'm not overly fond of multiclass characters (never played one), but in our current party Rogue 5/Fighter 6 (Swashbuckler/Battle Master) half-elf with Elven Accuracy deals...

We've got a yuan-ti pureblood Paladin of the Ancients in our current campaign, Dex 18 & Cha 20 (rolled stats, 11th level now). Advantage and +5 bonus to all saves vs. spells. It's hard not to be green with envy. My sorcerer, with a +3 bonus to Will saves, has failed so many saves vs...

::gurgle:: :: (manly) squeal:: I didn't know that was in the works. M.A.S.K. was probably my No. 1 favourite cartoon series when I was a kid (occasionally, that place was contended by Transformers and Masters of the Universe). Oh, man, I can't wait...

Stout halflings had it, but only up to 30 ft. IIRC. Also, if you were using just the PHB, you could not choose your halfling subrace, but you had 30% chance at character creation to have Stout blood, and thus infravision. I might be misremembering, though.

I don't know if anyone else mentioned this (I'm only on page 2 of the discussion), but in 2e Planescape accessory On hallowed ground, which details various pantheons of the multiverse (and also explains a lot about deities (or powers, as they were known back then), pantheons, their relationship...

As a side note, 'magarac' is pronounced MAH-gah-rats. Letter 'c' (without diacritics) in Croatian (Bosnian/Montenegrin/Serbian) always gives the 'ts' or 'tz' sound (a voiceless alveolar affricate, according to Wikipedia), as opposed to 'č' (a harder version of English ch) or 'ć' (a softer...

Enochi and Athootita.

I like the emphasised bit. It's a distinctive deviation from similar ideas on horror-inflicted settings ;) An interesting idea otherwise. How are you justifying the (widespread?) technological evolution if the world is "in submission to horrors from beyond"? Need promotes innovation, but if the...

This. Familiars obtained through the find familiar spell (or, rather, the Pact of the Chain warlock familiar improvement) are not same as the critters from the MM with the familiar sidebar. That is, the use the same stat block as the critters they're posing as, but are actually just spirits...

I'll use this opportunity and toot my own horn, as it were... We're using this in a campaign I'm currently playing in as a 11th level storm sorcerer, with a storm elemental familiar. We've designed it so that it's useful to both plain old wizards and pact of the chain warlocks.

Er... I'm not sure how you can get it before you ask the DM. If you mean write it down on your character sheet or in your backstory.... what's stopping you from getting an ancient gold dragon as a familiar? I'd say, as a general rule, that unless it's offered as an option in PHB or one of the...

I like all three subclasses in this UA, but Order of the Scribe is the favourite. Like many, I've got slight concerns about damage swapping ability. It might be a bit powerful, but it can lead to silly combinations (bludgeoning fireball setting things of fire, psychic shatter destroying objects...

I had something similar in mind. At first, my idea was to just increase the damage die by one size for Simple weapons for all characters who get full proficiency in Martial weapons. The idea was that Simple weapons are (generally) easier to use than Martial, and at the basic level of...

Our campaign started as a nautical, piraty thing, and after winning a second ship, several party members decided they wanted to start a trading company. Several levels later, we liberated a newly appeared island and claimed it for ourselves (well, for Waterdeep). As a captain of the flagship, my...

I'll freely admit that one of the character concepts I want to play is a gnome bard with warpipes. But I'm ashamed to admit I never thought of the giant basset hound mount...

Thanks for the input. You make some excellent points. I had the same idea, but then I realised that true resurrection has a 200-year limit (that was a surprise), and I didn't want to go over that. My logic was that you get 27 points for six ability scores, so one-half of that for three, but...

I've modified the reincarnate spell, partly based in part on input from another thread here. I've switched the spell back to Necromancy (transmutation makes no sense, really) and added it to Wizard's spell list, reduced the material component cost of the spell, added At Higher Levels clause(s)...

Unless he/she is a mul ;)

I'm all for changing elves to Fey, but it might have further-reaching consequences that simply barring them from raise dead. Various spells and effects that affect Humanoids only (e.g. charm person, dominate person, etc.) wouldn't affect them any more, for one. I'd have to go through the rules...

I'm not sure I agree with you. I do agree that being unaffected by raise dead would be somewhat of a pain in the backside, but I'm also considering some of @Ruin Explorer's suggestions, particularly the elves-always-reincarnate-as-elves idea. In fact, I think reincarnate spell should not be...
