Corporations used to talk endlessly on diversity and being diverse within the workplace. Then the U.S. elected Donald Trump and it was changed to inclusive and inclusivity.

Our "feats" are house ruled and are more akin to shadowrun's positive and negative qualities.

From these two links: http://www.unrv.com/culture/roman-slavery.php https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-price-of-a-Roman-slave-in-todays-dollars I would have a slave depending on the work he or she was meant to do and physical attractiveness cost between an average person's yearly to five years...

Rather than an income tax, I have the local government of the area the players live in levy periodic taxes. The taxes tend to be regressive and inspire dislike if not hatred to those collecting them. Such as the Captain of the Watch who uses the defense tax to live very well off, who has...

One thing I have contemplated doing was in addition to giving dragons "hot flames" to also give them the option of breathing cool flames as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_flame A dragon might do this in order to avoid damaging a warriors mastercraft armor so that it can then be added...

I would greatly test the morality of the players by giving them a list of very difficult things to acquire. Things such as: The right hand of an unborn elven male. The heart of a witch's seventh daughter. The seed of a dragon.

My group hires many "little people" to do the jobs that they deem to be beneath them. When hirelings die or are injured the players pay a weregild to the families.

Boys that carry lanterns.

Money, ammunition, expendable materials, the number of illegitimate children left behind and all the link-boys that died.

Cap'n Kobold, my game is heavily home brewed. You could say that the only thing that is D&D about my game is that we have AC, HP, EXP, levels, spell slots, and use many polyhedron dice. When playing your skills are you bonus, so while anyone can pick up a bow and attempt to loose an arrow, it is...

I would say that there are two possible attack options. Are the players simply bashing in the sleeper's heads with a weapon, or are they making a called shot to slit a throat, etc...? For the first I would grant a free critical unless a fumble was made (could miss and hit the bed post) and if...

IMO features are nothing more than skills. There is absolutely no reason why a non-rogue is prohibited from being sneaky and assassinating someone. Nor is there a reason for a non-rogue not being able to pick pockets, locks, etc.... We solved this problem by greatly expanding the skills list...

I once granted a sword that would do triple damage against anyone who had ever tried to harm an elf. Over time it would turn the wielder into a random kind of elf. The party thought it would be great to hand it off to the elvish ranger. They thought it fabulous to lay waste to orcs and the like...

In my world there are four groups of divine beings. The primordial beings of whom only the stars are worshiped by the light elves, the others being forgotten. The old gods who are raceless nature spirits such as The Green Man of the Wood, The Flower Maiden of the Field and so forth. Then the new...

Our currencies are theft, barter, silver, electrum, gold, white gold, platinum, star silver and mithril. The first two being used the most by my group. Coins are pennies, shillings, guilder, kreuzer, marks, thaler and pounds.

A character with hooves should be looking for spats instead of boots or shoes.

For fun you could describe something nice and see how far your players go to protect the item from being ruined. Entering a room there might be a rich carpet that their friend Lord So and So would pay handsomely for, if the group can keep it from being stained and torn.

In my game world there are Dwarves Elves (light, grey, dark, each Tolkien/Norse based) Faeries Gnomes Halflings Humans Bugbears Giants (Game of Thrones) Goblins Hobgoblins Ogres Orcs Trolls and half races.

We use a small blackboard and hand drawn maps. Our "tokens" consist of miniature figurines, various coloured pieces of arts and crafts paper labeled with what they represent, and the little plastic bits from a Risk game.

Once a puritan of a paladin grappled my thieving assassin in an attempt to arrest her. When asked what I was going to do I replied "A short time ago I had a few glasses of wine. I pee on him." Everyone at the table laughed. The GM then made a check and stated that the paladin dropped me to avoid...
