    D&D (2024) I have the DMG. AMA!

    I think the big point of contention is that it's a big mechanical consequence to a role-playing action. The character is now "not playable" until the DM decides penance is made. I would say it would be better to either have a "fallen cleric" archetype or have the character be favored by a god...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    It's a man you tack on the wall. Some kind of living framed picture.

    Guys, we have to realise: Those toxic X aren't all that present. They correspond to what? 2% of the gamers you have encountered? We are defending the game we love against hypothetical gamers we don't have at our table and won't tolerate anyway. Most of your are older gamers, you have a well...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I'm really 35 (well still 34, but sooooon) and I sometime feel a terrible disconnect with man posters, it's like we don't even speak the same language (which we don't, I speak French, but you get the idea)

    Sure. Those consequences are natural because they fit the narrative created by the DM. Say in my game the powers are given to the cleric through secret prayers and rite. Once they know and understand the "rites of casting 2nd level spells", you can't remove it (unless you destroy their memory...

    Yup. It's just an mechanical justification to their power trip. "Plays YOUR character in a manners that fits MY preferences".

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Some posters should really be ashamed of their attitude. If Enworld really skew toward older gamers, some of them clearly wasted their time and never learned social abilities.

    It's funny, hardline DMs want players beholden and answering to those almighty figures able to punish both in-narrative and the mechanics and those power figures are all played by...said DM! No ways the player has any say in this, that would be toxic bullying! Surprise, surprise.

    D&D General What house-rules or techniques do you use to make 5e grittier?

    Oh, forgot one: Spare the Dying or a DC 15 medicine check gives a successful death save, not automatic stabilization.

    D&D General What house-rules or techniques do you use to make 5e grittier?

    Character only regain half their HD after a long rest. Require HD spending to regain HP for a long rest. Require 1 use of Healers kit to spend HDs Require a Con check at the end of a long rest to see if the characters benefit from it. DC depends on the environment or lifestyle. PC can't benefit...

    D&D General What is appropriate Ranger Magic

    This is my favorite kind of characters! Take a dex-based ancient paladin as a ranger, or a fighter with skulker and poisoner as an assassin.
