    D&D General I'm reading the Forgotten Realms Novels- #202 The Howling Delve by Jaleigh Johnson (Dungeons 2)

    Spellfire is one of my favorites. Thanks for the re-read synopsis!

    D&D 5E Divine Soul is Kinda Nasty

    I guess I don't just see the issue with this. You're burning a 4th level spell slot and a sorcery point to get some extra hit points.

    Maxwell's Silver Hammer: On Spells, Design, and the feeling of Sameyness in 5e

    War Mage is the closest right now to a generalist concept. Part offense, part defense, no tie to a specific school, but still no quite there. I've got one somewhere that I wrote up because that was my biggest dissatisfaction with the Wizard in the PHB when it was published, but I don't know...

    D&D 5E D&D Digital Plans To Be Revealed On February 21st

    I mean... there is a DNDBeyond App where you can download any books you have purchased there on your device. It's not great, and you can't access characters, but it IS there. They have it for iOS and Android

    D&D 5E Magic Jar aftermath question

    Different perspectives I guess. Verisimilitude is broken for me with the assumption that everyone everywhere has access to all the same abilities and spells exactly like everyone else. That doesn't make sense to me at all that there would never be anyone ever out there who had different...

    D&D 5E Mythological Figures: Captain Nemo

    Dude... it's D&D, he just went Eberron, but instead of an Air or Fire elemental for his ship like the Lyandar, he plugged a Lightning Quasi-elemental into the core of the Nautilis to provide electricity to the ship's systems!.

    D&D 5E Magic Jar aftermath question

    I understood that. I think RAW the only way to do it is probably with the Wish spell. Even then, that is up to your DM fiat. I mean really... you're the DM. Your NPC can do whatever you want them to be able to do. NPC's often have abilities unavailable to PC's (Death Domain, Oathbreaker - NPC...

    D&D 5E Magic Jar aftermath question

    I applaud the creativity! My question is as an extra-dimensional space is the interior of a portable hole "within 100 feet" of the current body in case of things like death... I'd say that Wish could probably achieve the effect that you're seeking here. OTOH, having it have a way to "undo"...

    Consequences of playing "EVIL" races

    Yeah... I've seen it in play. They start to RP the whole "oh it's a race X creature" just because they feel like they have to, but that quickly gets left in the dust because "PC". Especially if the DM doesn't do anything to remind the players. We all just look around and see humans sitting at...

    Consequences of playing "EVIL" races

    Table dependant, but I'd have to say for my games, yes there are consequences. I wouldn't accord them. I would let them do it with due warning to the consequences and let them figure out how to deal with the potential repercussions/consequences. That's on them to figure out if they want to...

    D&D 5E D&D Digital Plans To Be Revealed On February 21st

    I'd be down for anything that brought MASK back! It's... no more expensive, and often cheaper, than buying the books elsewhere?

    D&D 5E D&D Digital Plans To Be Revealed On February 21st

    I... might actually buy that! :) But only if one of the game pieces was Xanathar himself and another was his fish in a bowl! Pretty sure it was 4E that almost tanked the brand, not any efforts of WotC outside of ttrpg. It's not just that WotC has deep pockets to engage in all this stuff...

    Maxwell's Silver Hammer: On Spells, Design, and the feeling of Sameyness in 5e

    Not really. Nor more or less boring than a sword or anything else in combat that is repetitious. Why should the fighter be the only one who gets to be bored in combat because their only thing to do is swing a sword? ;) I mean... maybe for combat cantrips? But not for the non-combat cantrips...
