    CG's Dragon of Icespire Peak [OOC][FULL]

    So below is the background I was actually thinking of when I posted earlier Rorik's parents had a tumultuous marriage, each having their own view on the world and how they should raise Rorik. Both were taken away from home by their respective duties and so their relationship swung from the...

    Hi All, sorry I've been quiet about the new character development. Busy at work and I'm not getting time at home to sort out gaming stuff (online or IRL). Anyway, very quick glance at the characters looks ok. Thanks for the effort on having them know each other. I'll try and get a better...

    @SteveGorak, Welcome aboard. Let me know what you decide. It will make things easier if you and Neurotics character know each other already but don't feel like you have to. @Neurotic Only the one uncommon item is free. You have to pay for anything you find with Xanathar's after you find it...

    D&D 5E Counterspell what do people think?

    LoS is always reciprocal . If I can see you, you can see me - it might be incredibly difficult but it is possible. A sniper can be seen through a 6” loop hole from anywhere he can see. Again it will be incredibly difficult, because you’ll have to know how to get your eyes to adjust to see into...

    D&D General Starting PC age? [poll]

    Actually, that tends to be what prompts me to play older PCs. Come to think of it I think of my PC ageing with level, even if the game time doesn’t line up. E.g. at level 1 I think of him as 19 by level 5 I think of him at 25, even though perhaps a month has passed.

    D&D General Starting PC age? [poll]

    It would be an interesting question. I tended to use my own age until my later mid twenties, then my PC started getting younger again until they stabilised around 21. I also stopped actually caring about an actual number and just had a ballpark figure in my head. Now, unless there is a...

    CG's Dragon of Icespire Peak [OOC][FULL]

    Yay, a new game, I'm in. I'm thinking arcane knight (if we get there) or paladin. Magic enhanced front line fighter anyway. EDIT: maybe This Guy with a modified story

    Should not be a problem. We're wrapping up an encounter then it'll be a good place to introduce a character. post in the OOC thread when you have something. Enjoy your vacation.

    EN World New GMs, players, read the first post in this thread! (updated 5/21)

    I have noticed something of a slowdown in games as well. Hopefully it is just a down swing and we'll see it pick up again soon. On that note I am looking for a couple of players to replace some AWOL PCs in my game here

    D&D 5E Storm King's Thunder

    Fistan, "Ah yes, the casino. I wonder what a giant queen would be doing on a human boat? I'm not sure she would even fit on it, let alone be comfortable. Unless she used magic to blend in. Do you know if she hid her heritage? Did she have a preferred area to visit?"

    Talls Strongholds and Followers adventure - Full

    With two players AWOL I'm thinking of recruiting a couple of replacements. The meat of the adventure is coming after this encounter, so adding PCs now should be fairly easy. The other option would be to add a retainer to Eowyn and U'Tempei. Story wise that is probably harder to do -...

    D&D 5E Talls S&H adventure

    Eowyn uses here magic to bolter the strength of Saarthax while the dragonbord lands to solid blow on his attacker. Bertold follows up with a blow of his own. U'Tempei shoots two short bolts drawing a shudder from the plant thing. Arcata sends a bolt of fire streaking towards the monster but it...

    D&D 5E Wizard progression advice

    Thanks everyone, seeing some thoughts - and the reasoning behind them is really helpful. Alert is certainly tempting, I find that I don’t have too much trouble if not going first though. As I mentioned it is a group of skirmishers, so almost everyone is either doing hit and run melee or...

    [IC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Book 2)

    Perin "Simply following the wagon trail much farther is likely to lead us into trouble. We know we are close but we do not know where the camp is. I would recommend following this group. It will either yield an ally or a dead enemy, both are in our interest." He looks to Evertt, "A risky...

    D&D 5E Storm King's Thunder

    Fistan When fistan awakes he begins his morning routine, cleaning himself as best he can before settling down with his spellbook. Before he gets very far his curiosity is piqued and he looks at the coin. History check: 1D20+7 = [19]+7 = 26 or only +4 (so 22) if its investigation

    D&D 5E Wizard progression advice

    I am looking for some input on my wizard progression. Specifically at what ASI/feat to take at 8th level (and beyond) He is a Human Variant, with lucky, conjurer wizard. STR 8; DEX 14; CON 14; INT 18; WIS 12; CHA 10 I have biased (as much as possible) his conjuration. Now that he is...

    D&D 5E A tweak for Counterspell

    This is how I run my tables (IRL at least) and how my current DM started running his after some input from me playing the party wizard (I have considerably more DMing experience than he does). I’ll identify a rough level of spell: low for levels 1 to 2; mid for levels 4 to 5 and high for level...

    Perin "Hmmm. Looks like they may be part of the lizard war machine." Perin notes to those near him. Perception: 1D20+4 = [17]+4 = 21
