    D&D (2024) Seeking input re: Dwarves Riding Bears.

    This made me think of my Dwarf Hunter I had in WoW back in the day. He had an Ice Bear from Dun Morog as his animal companion and I named it Orr, both as a play-on-words with “ore” (which Dwarves like to mine) and as a reference to Bobby Orr (one of the greatest Boston Bruins to ever play the...

    D&D 5E Solasta 2 Announced!!!

    I am so looking forward to this! My daughter and I loved playing the first game together, each of us creating 2 characters to fill out the 4 person party. It scratched our D&D itch when we couldn’t get enough people together to play regular D&D.

    D&D General A Quick Peek At Tiamat In Amazon's 'Secret Level' Anthology TV Show

    That’s not how I ever pictured Wall of Fire. I was thinking it was either Aganazzar’s Scorcher or some elevated Burning Hands. I was never quite sure if Tally was a Sorcerer (using Metamagic) or a Wizard or Pact of the Tome Warlock (due to the book).

    D&D General Folks Who Came Back With 5E: Did You Stay with 5E?

    Yes. I started with 3e, left shortly after 4e was released, and now I’m back with 5e and I’m here to stay.

    D&D General Vanity Frankenstein 5E: My homebrew D&D project [+]

    Intangible, aphysical, ethereal, incorporeal, insubstantial, immeterial, refined (according to the thesaurus).

    D&D 5E The 2024 Ranger is Actually Pretty Good (with numbers)

    A) Shillelagh isn’t even on the Ranger spell list (no cantrips are), and Rangers will use their DEX for bow or finesse weapon attacks. B) Of the 61 spells on the Ranger spell list, 14 require a saving throw, 2 require making a spell attack, 1 (Cure Wounds) adds WIS for extra healing, and 1...

    D&D 5E The 2024 Ranger is Actually Pretty Good (with numbers)

    I'm not buying this argument. Is only having 4 uses per day that much worse then having a 5th use per day? The decision to gain a 5th use, or boost another stat, or take another feat is currently a perfectly legitimate choice.

    D&D General [+] What is your favorite non-WotC D&D setting?

    Having always played in the Forgotten Realms with my old group back in 3e, I liked it, but I felt it was much too massive in scale. Now that I'm DMing my own group in 5e, I appreciate that Exandria is a lot smaller and cozier (and I even have 2 campaign setting books dedicated to specific...

    D&D (2024) Which Creature Type Would You Most Like a Fizban's/Bigby's Style Book About?

    Oops, I forgot to mention I voted Fey. For many reasons: my Irish heritage, A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Faerie Feller's Master-Stroke (both the Queen song and the Richard Dadd painting that inspired it), The Dresden Files. . .

    D&D Movie/TV Hasbro Getting Out Of The Movie Business

    I know, was just being facetious. But honestly, if Critical Role pared down one of their one-shots into a more theater friendly 2 hour mark, that might be able to make some good money.

    D&D Movie/TV Hasbro Getting Out Of The Movie Business

    E.T. Had a scene with the kids playing D&D and I think that movie did okay.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    I guess I just don't understand his vitriol. If playing an "Anti Woke" game is your cup of tea, you can pretty much use any existing game and have the DM/GM make some minor tweaks. It's not like the publishers will be at your table, standing over you menacingly and tapping police batons...

    D&D (2024) The Lackluster Ranger

    Oh, I get you now. Like Robin Hood and his Band of Merry Men.

    D&D (2024) How many magical rings can a single character wear and use?

    So if you have a really lenient DM, you could use all 8 fingers and 2 thumbs to wear all 10 types of Rings of Resistance. :unsure:

    D&D (2024) The Lackluster Ranger

    I'm unfamiliar with this terminology. By "green" do you mean "environmentally friendly" or "inexperienced" or "envious" or "about to vomit" or something else?

    D&D General A glimpse at WoTC's current view of Rule 0

    DISCLAIMER: I have not read the vast majority of this thread, nor do I intend to. I just get a kick out of how a thread about WotC's "Rule 0," which basically amounts to, "Hey guys, maybe everyone should be considerate of one another, and try to have fun playing the game," can generate over...
