    Okay, that helps. But, why is she wearing shoes?

    D&D General Not *Another* Halfling Thread! (+)

    Yes! I love hobbits! My favorite was Mr. Emmerybird, a halfing blink wizard with a penchant for frogs and a wand of vanish. At the beginning of his career he would summon some giant frogs then pop around the battlefield by vanishing, walking, then reappearing next round as if he were...

    D&D 5E Do you actually use "Lifestyle Expenses?"

    There is a time and place for lifestyle expenses. Our gaming table doesn't usually get to that time and place but we have been there. The game is not a 'monolith'. Play styles vary from table to table, from year to year, from person to person, and even within the same person depending on mood...

    TSR Example from the worst TSR adventure module(s) ever published

    It is a solo adventure for one Dungeon Master and one Player. It is written for Krunk!, a pregenerated character with 18s in all six of his ability scores. He where's nothing but a magic loincloth that gives him a stellar armor class. I would suggest any who play this adventure be previously...

    D&D General Would It Matter To You if D&D Books Were Illustrated by AI Instead of Humans?

    It's hard to believe that this "old" thread was just 10 months ago. How naive we were. https://www.enworld.org/threads/wombo-art-your-character-descriptions.684523/

    D&D General Would It Matter To You if D&D Books Were Illustrated by AI Instead of Humans?

    I answered "Yes" it will bother me, but that's probably just the human in me talking. To tell you (and myself) the truth, I probably won't pay that much attention. By the time such a publication is released I'll probably find myself surrounded and inundated by artificially generated art anyway.

    D&D General Would It Matter To You if D&D Books Were Illustrated by AI Instead of Humans?

    Well, the First Great Digitization of the Hobby has already happened (not that it's over); and, one of the products of that process, video games, has become it's own thing separate from the Hobby. The Second Digitization is similar. It is heavily dependent on computers and graphics, however it...

    D&D General Would It Matter To You if D&D Books Were Illustrated by AI Instead of Humans?

    Artificial Intelligence will eventually replace the Game Master. I think 2023 is a safe prediction for when well see that, if it isn't already a thing now. Hasn't AIDungeon already been tasked with that? This is all part of the Second Digitization.

    D&D General Would It Matter To You if D&D Books Were Illustrated by AI Instead of Humans?

    You should try it again. Artificial Intelligence has crossed a tipping point and is now moving at light speed. Getting better by the week.

    D&D General Would It Matter To You if D&D Books Were Illustrated by AI Instead of Humans?

    Would it matter to you if Dungeons and Dragons books were written by Artificial Intelligence instead of humans? I've been playing around with GPT to help me get more work done. Now I'm going to go ask it to create some optional rules and see what I get.

    D&D 5E Should the Flail be a Simple Melee Weapon?

    It seems like we're coming to the conclusion that flails are martial weapons, but maybe peasants are proficient in their use. This may apply to the Folk Hero background but not the Noble background.

    D&D General Poll: Do DMs/GMs need to trust their players?

    Trust but verify*. C'mon Players! Work with me here. Tell me what you want so I can make it happen. If you're trying to outwit me then you're going to win everytime, I am not a worthy foil. As your Dungeon Master, I'm your biggest fan. I'm trying to help you succeed. So, please don't surprise...

    D&D 5E Should the Flail be a Simple Melee Weapon?

    D&D 5E Should the Flail be a Simple Melee Weapon?

    What!? I would have a hard time believing that someone like me would be able to just pick up a flail and use it at all, much less with proficiency. If I had to fight for my life and I had time to pick up either a club or a flail, i'd pick the club. Heck, I'd pick a sword before I picked a...

    RPG Evolution - True Tales from Stranger Things: The Satanic Panic Comes to School

    I started playing at 11 years old in the early eighties. I didn't experience much of the Satanic Panic with Dungeons and Dragons. I founded a Dungeons and Dragons club in elementary school. Once, a friend's mother didn't want the game in her house so she made us play outside on the porch (I...

    D&D (2024) What New Classes Should Be Added One D&D PHB?

    Take some class options out of the new Player's Handbook, this allows them to introduce those classes as optional classes in future publications. It's a tough list to make with many pitfalls, but here goes... Fighter Rogue Sorcerer These just about cover all of your bases. I chose sorcerer...
