    D&D 5E Attacking a Creature Engulfing A PC (or in a Grapple, I suppose)

    You might consider how the Animated Object -- Rug of Smothering's ability of Damage Transfer works, for the RAW implementation of this concept. Cheers, Roger

    Behind the Screens: Worldbuilding

    Some good stuff here. I like the overall "there's more than one way to do it right" vibe I'm getting from wotc lately. And the map made me feel like I was back in Titan again, so good work there.

    Rodney Thompson Looks Behind The Screen

    I like the idea of it. Prep is one of those things that tends to be really personal to individual DMs, has been my experience. Certainly room enough here for people to talk about their particular preferences.

    D&D 5E 'Game of Thrones' fans: what kind of weapon does Oberyn use?

    As far as I can recall, he's not described as throwing it, nor does it generally sound throwable, so I probably wouldn't classify it as a spear. Any of the heavy reach weapons are probably fine.

    D&D 5E Changeling (from the UA article): crazy broken?

    It's pretty terse, and I expect that some of the feedback they get on this draft will be related to needing to expand on this sort of thing. I took a look at the Monster Manual for some further insight. There's basically two sorts of powers that refer to polymorph: Change Shape. -- Angels...

    D&D 5E Common rules mistakes

    Scrolls -To use a spell scroll, the spell must be on (one of) your class's spell list. Example: a bard can use a first-level dissonant whispers scroll but a cleric cannot. (DMG pgs 200-201) -You can try casting a spell that is too high-level for you, but it might not work. Example: A...

    D&D 5E How do you handle PC nobles?

    Standard response to the Background topic: "The most important question to ask about your background is what changed? Why did you stop doing whatever your background describes and start adventuring?" -- Basic Rules (Players'), pg 36. The PC was a noble. Then something changed and they could...

    D&D 5E Dnd 5e polymorph a zombie

    D&D 5E Is Concentration Bugging You?

    Hmmm. If I were going to houserule this, I might go with "If you're wearing heavy armour, you automatically pass Concentration checks caused by taking damage." That should make the paladins and some clerics feel better about their lives. Cheers, Roger
