    D&D 5E Why the Druid Metal Restriction is Poorly Implemented

    "So you admit my berries are good!"

    D&D 5E Acquisitions, Inc.: First Impressions

    "That's a shame," said Michael Bay, tossing his FR stuff in the trash.

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    The umber hulk gets angry, like real angry, and the gunslinger doesn't like it. And the rogue at the reins of his horse says he's got a bad feeling about what's about to happen next.

    Human Viability

    I think this is the best choice. I've grown tired of what I call "curating" player options. I used to try making all the options more appealing, like you're considering by tweaking the standard human, but I found that ultimately it just shuffles the deck regarding what is most appealing - with...

    Human Viability

    I liked a suggestion I saw on EnWorld a little while back: Give the humans a second background. My memory is a light fuzzy on the details, but I think it would work well if the background cane with everything but the 2 skill proficiencies. So humans would get a couple tool/language...

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    Don't be serious on my account! No. Wait. You should be serious. Always. I hate competition. But it wasn't even the example that hampered my understanding of what you were trying to say. I simply couldn't piece together what you were saying before the example. I think it was mostly because you...

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    Okay, that explains it. Although I'll ignore all the terrible bits in your example that would serve as good examples of what I avoid as a DM and leave to the players to narrate for themselves, I understand what you're saying now and even agree.

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    I don't understand what you're trying to say with this, what that example is meant to illustrate.

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    I'd totally recommend checking out Esper Genesis and Dark Matter, since they're both 5e in Spaaaace.

    What genre is the Borderlands video game? That genre.

    D&D 5E Durable Feat is weak, Healer feat is too strong

    They kind of are garbage...unless you have an odd ability score, and then they are awesome. Moderately Armored gave my rogue everything a Dex increase would, and bumped my AC up to match the highest in the party. It was a hefty power boost.

    Is RPGing a *literary* endeavour?

    That glorious feeling I'm feeling right now? It's not because my local basketball team won a basketball tournament. All my time wasted in this thread had just paid off. I've just struck gold. GOLD! Black and gold chequered, hallucinogenic exploding toads. But it's not just when you lick them...

    Is RPGing a *literary* endeavour?

    If you're sitting at my table, you will see them. Heck. My awesome literary narration will have you feeling sad about the violent end to their too-short existence. You'll be provoked into pondering the meaning of life, the deepest question of human existence, the universe - everything. And you...

    Favorite version: White Dragon [poll]

    Has WotC actually changed the dragons at all in the since time they "rebranded" then for 3e? I'm not sure rebranding is the right word, or even that they did anything more at the time than give consistent guidelines to their artists. Anyway, my vote is for the 3e white dragon because I have a...

    Is RPGing a *literary* endeavour?

    I've got more to say! (Lots, lots more!) And yet no one - not a single solitary person - responded to the the best post ever posted on EnWorld. https://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?657586-Exploding-Toads!-Turtle-Grenades! (Okay, not too much more)

    GM DESCRIPTION: NARRATION OR CONVERSATION?

    When I'm DMing, I find that I'm at my best when the session looks like an Agatha Christie novel: there's the briefest narration, enough to set the scene and nothing more, and the action is resolved in the dialog.

    Is RPGing a *literary* endeavour?

    Yeah, as soon as I read that post, I saved your words with the hope that I could weaponize them against you one day in the future. I wasn't expecting to get the perfect setup literally one day in the future. Glorious.
