    Running a Stand-in PC

    I never run another player's character for them when I DM, and I never let someone else run their character. Too much of that character's story could be controlled by someone else and could end in something that the player doesn't like. I generally have something happen that requires the...

    What is your group’s roleplaying level?

    Quite often for us. We do like to role play, but we're never so serious about it that we can't also be ourselves with each other while we play. This is a group of all friends, not just people who are together only to play D&D, so that may play into it.

    Need input on a ship based mini adventure

    I'd keep A, and use the storm in B as an encounter in and of itself. You can have the storm be a danger that they have to face and have them act appropriately to protect themselves and save the ship.

    Anyone know of any good game stores in the Queens, NY area?

    I'm taking my family on a trip to New York this coming week. We'll be in Queens. Just wondering if anyone knows of a good gaming store around there that sells D&D and Warhammer stuff.

    D&D 5E Thaumaturgy Cantrip.

    I've been running a game on and off for a group of dads and sons for a year or two. When we first started, my son was 11 and fairly new to D&D. He used thaumaturgy in HotDQ after the group captured an enemy and wanted to intimidate him for info. My son had his character get right up in the...

    As a player: prefer Homebrew or Published settings?

    I'm just as happy to play in either type of setting. As long as it's a good group and a good game, I don't care if it's published or homebrew at all.

    Causes of disadvantage in 5e?

    There's an old reddit thread I saw awhile back that attempted to list all possible causes of both Advantage and Disadvantage. It's here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/29xk0j/5e_summary_of_situations_causing_advantage_or/

    The Endless Quest books are back

    I have one of the original Endless Quest books (Dungeon of Dread). It's decent for what it is, but I always enjoyed the Fighting Fantasy books, especially the Sorcery! collection, much more. Still, nice to see these coming out again. I'm sure I'll buy some of them for my son.

    D&D 5E How Many Dragon Fights Have You Had in D&D 5e?

    Only 1 so far, and that wasn't a full-fledged battle. It was for the group I was DMing for HotDQ, and it was early on where they only have to do so much damage to run the dragon off for the time being.
