Great post. Ultimately D&D started by trying to recreate fantasy setting so in turn it incorporated the "Heroes journey" model which is by extension a male's wish fulfilment (comprising of values such as strength/ masculinity). With it's increasing popularity it is natural that the game will...

Yikes, players talk like that? Never personally played outside of my own group of friends so its odd hearing how others play at times

Does anyone know any blogs or videos of a direct account of someone being harmed/offended by d&d races? I am looking for a direct account on how and why its effected them but I am having no luck in finding a source.

But I believe in-universe explanations matter in the same way that a rational explanations to my stances in real life matter. For example if I saw a hungry wolf in real life I would do what I must to survive whether that be fight or flight, I would be resolving the matter in a way that works on...

The majority of arguments against the racial changes in d&d are actually stating they feel that it was not racist to begin with. I have noticed that many people during these debates are deciding posters are racist because they themselves have already concluded that a number of factors are racist...

Personally I will just be ignoring this new direction we are going with races when designing a campaign but don't particularly mind playing campaigns that are enforcing these changes; might even freshen things up a bit. That's the beauty of the game I guess, the freedom to play as the group wishes.

Thats a good point about using it to move allies for additional speed. I think I will take it to test if nothing else.

Hello, I am playing a phalanx soldier who uses a towershield and mobile feats. Our group has levelled up to level 7 and I was thinking about taking the Friendly switch feat so I could consistently deploy the towershield in front of enemy to defend ally behind (mobile fortress feat). Does anyone...

Heres my contribution, for spells such as levitation/fly that encourage user to float upwards I have explained it to the party that my boots+gauntlets have activated magnets and the weave has been manipulated to cause the air to repel my items upwards through transmutation and changing the...

"If not for yourself, do it for science!!!"

Its great honestly, I have given the tabaxi rogue a returning dagger....which she used to throw at a rabbit being cooked over a fire during a surprise attack so it would return to her and started eating it. It was pretty ingenius to be fair.

Oh yeah, I am using a blow torch currently (through glass blowing tool) as my cure wounds currently

Thanks good sir the explanation, really need to read up on stuff more.

Nice one guys, very helpful so far. Loving the explanations from Fanaelialae and BlivetWidget

Just to clarify the joke was that the structure of the joke itself reflected that a tachyon is ahead of light? Just want to make sure im laughing about the right thing XD

Hello. To cut to the chase I have made a artificer and quickly realized that my knowledge is lacking when it comes to science so I have created this thread in the hopes that a list of useful facts or random tips could be compiled to help myself/ others who feel the same roleplay characters more...

Good to hear

Honestly it does not sound like you are failing your group and would advice any other DM in your position to not blame yourself, sometimes a group can actually just fail themselves. Is it possible however that you get more of a buzz from a extrovert group and actually your more introvert group...
