    What is Ability Score improvement based off?

    Is it overall level or individual class level? for example; If I were Ranger level 3 and I took a level in Rogue, becoming Ranger 3 Rogue 1, Would I get an an ability score improvement for that level up? or only if I took a 4th ranger level?

    Is this monster a bit powerful?

    I recently brewed up a new batch of dragons for a campaign I'm writing, but said campaign will most likely contain 3 PCs, all of whom are prone to playing spellcasters regardless if everyone else is one too. I can actually predict what they will play: A warlock, a Wild-Magic Sorcerer, and a...

    What's a good plot reason to grant the players psionic powers?

    So I've been doing a lot of campaign building. I've been trying to build a campaign off the premise of psionics, and I've done a lot of stuff, I've made a new dragon type, I've stated the Elan's from 3.5, ect. But I wanted the players to feel included in all this psionics that's floating around...

    Level adjustment/playing as monsters in D&D 3.5

    I have a very limited understanding of level adjustment in D&D 3.5. What I know is that if I wanted to be a vampire, I would count as 8 levels higher. Now, I've been led to believe that level advancement has something to do with playing as a monster. Let's take a monster like a red dragon...

    I need ideas for running horror campaigns

    What's a subtle way to inspire horror in PCs in a game like D&D? I'm looking for something that is not all sudden jump scare in your face, something to built tension but simultaneously disturb or frighten

    I need help with a part of a campaign I'm making

    Perhaps I could present it at first to be an advantage to them, but over time the red dragon inside the ring begins to awaken and attempt to take over the weilder's mind?

    I need help with a part of a campaign I'm making

    This idea for a magic item popped into my head: A ring that, when you place it on your finger, shape shifts you into a Wyrmling Red Dragon (Changing your statistics except skill proficiency, INT, WIS, and CHA to that of a red dragon wyrmling) until it is removed. But I am short on ideas. How...

    How do I calculate the Challenge Rating of a PC?

    Challenge rating has always confused me, considering CR of a monster assumes a party of 4. However, when i'm not doing organised play I most often end up playing with 2-3 people, a very small group to DM. I'm curious as to how one level of monster CR compares to one class level. If I have a...

    Did I do something wrong?

    Yes, your right, I'll see what I can do to fix things while still playing the same character, it won't be easy, but I'll try my best

    Did I do something wrong?

    Your right, your SO right. But I've grown really attached to my character over the past few months, and I never intended for my character to end out this way. I started as some nerd with two swords and no story. But I've evolved into a demon hunter with a tragic background just doing everything...

    Did I do something wrong?

    In person, I do organized play at a comic book store, and they were actually the first to attack. In initiative it went The Fighter, the Greedy Druid, Me, My friend that wasn't on my side, the weird, and last my friend who finished it off. The Fighter shot it, the druid stabbed it with his...

    Did I do something wrong?

    I would believe that that the DM had planned it if it weren't for what happened next: They got so angry the DM had to yell at them and threaten to end the session, also, the fighter had just joined, and could not have been affected by maddness

    Did I do something wrong?

    They made it very clear they were talking to me, as me, from them, as them, this is a very poor group for role play

    Did I do something wrong?

    Me and my D&D group are playing Out of The Abyss, the newest campaign for D&D 5e. We came across a statue on a sand bar, and a water weird attacked us. Now, if you know, water weird's alignment directly relates to the water they are in, the water was corrupt, therefore the weird was evil. We...
