Pleasantly surprised (slightly amazed) with how this thread blew up. No time to reply to everything but I will TRY to come back and read more individual responses, since it seems like "how" people use Inspiration is just as important as "how often". If we're discussing a table full of randos...

Hello everyone, I've already made a few posts but then I saw this thread. I co-founded and co-owned End Transmission Games LLC, which published a little over a dozen RPG games (including but not limited to: Anathema, Phantasm(2010), SPLINTER, Psionics, Systems Malfunction) and books that I...

I'll reserve judgement on how reasonable is but seriously thank you for linking me to that article, that question has been bothering me for DECADES. Mad appreciation. Everyone knows who Dracula is. At least, I personally have never conversed with anyone who doesn't. [/FONT][/COLOR]

Interesting article. I myself cannot adult properly (and I was hugely relieved the first time I grokked that it was being used as a verb, not a noun, because it meant enough people were trying to be an adult and failing, like me, that they needed to come up with a word for it) but I don't think...

So, I tried to upload a profile picture and I did not succeed. I tried uploading it directly or linking it to a site. I made sure the image I was using was smaller than 800x400 and smaller than 97.7Kb (btw that's a VERY SPECIFIC NUMBER). Nothing worked. Unsure if bug with site or user error...

What're you shooting for lol? I probably should have asked up front what this was for. This, right here, touches on my oldest, biggest bugbear (in the sense of pet peeve) with D&D. In your example, Lestat and Dracula (and Cassidy and Strahd) are all Vampires, the set of creatures they belong to...

Yo, Zeep, this is exactly what I've been looking for. Do you still need a DM?

Ah, a rare opportunity for me to try a new RPG. You still looking for people, claytri? Took me a couple weeks to find it.

It does not sit well with me when game companies (analog or digital) charge people to be part of a playtest. I mean, it probably won't ever stop until fans refuse to pay, and I don't know how to get that to happen short of a miracle, but... yeah, paying money to help a company balance its...

Next.... Lich Mob?

I have NEVER as a player either started a campaign at Level 1 nor finished a campaign with that same character at Level 20 in ANY EDITION of D&D ever, let alone both. Some of that is that I usually DM, but mostly it's that PCs die and when PCs don't die campaigns die without really reaching a...

How many of you have played in and/or enjoyed D&D campaigns that began at (or made it to) higher than 10th level? My main D&D is 3.5 so that will always be my primary frame of reference for things like how many levels there even are (30, but the last 10 can be safely ignored as virtually no...

I find myself wondering kind of the same thing. I'm not sure I'm a grognard, but I do know I'm quite set in more than a few of my ways when it comes to tabletop gaming. I'm almost a decade younger than you, so I find myself wondering WHY I'm not in touch with things like Critical Role, not on...

~THESE NUMBERS ARE GUESSES~ I think that I had somewhere like 120 RPG books at my zenith. Many of them were destroyed in a flood (tragic), many more were lost in my move...I think I'm down to maybe 40 at most, with just a tiny fraction of that personally to hand. The other 30-whatever are back...

Yeah, it sounds like your group wants to just convert over to 5E in this case. My guess would be what's confusing them is the fact that ACs are going to be up to 10 points higher and attack/skill bonuses are going to be at least 15 points higher across the boards. Personally, I'd rather play...

Is this because...I'm guessing that this is because all of the published and Adventurer's League adventures are (as far as I can tell) overwhelmingly 5th level and lower, and most players playing and reporting in officially through D&D beyond are also playing published/AL adventures ? That is...

So, I've been playing a fair amount of 5E lately, at an FLGS that rather incredibly has eight tables that are reliably packed with D&D players every week. I've noticed that most DMs are using a house-rule-they-don't-seem-to-know-is-a-house-rule (got to be a shorter way of putting that, but you...

My ex's empathy was so intense that she could scarcely play D&D in the face of this phenomenon, with how kill-crazed the rest of the party and the NPCs tended to be. And by D&D, I mean every RPG. At least once every five sessions the PCs would murder an NPC or monster that had been characterized...

Also In Search of The Unknown. In Search Of The Unknown is my favorite "my first D&D" type module/adventure. Anyway personally I'd give her the same one piece of advice I give all GMs of any age and experience level: smile knowingly. Just smile knowingly. No matter what you've goofed up or how...

It seems weird that he (the original stat block) doesn't have Legendary Actions or Lair Actions considering that Cerberus is a legendary mythic beast ostensibly charged with guarding a specific gateway (IIRC). (also, o hai mike) Oh, and Cerberus is definitely a Monstrosity, not a Beast, if I...
