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

    D&D Reader was never released. There were a few articles—like this one—touting it. The one I saw back in the day didn’t tie it directly to WOTC, and given what I knew about D&D Beyond development at the time, I found it hard to believe the Reader project was real. Apparently there was never an...

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

    Somewhat to her surprise, Surina readily agrees to the idea of a picnic. “Ale is good, but nothing beats a good wine,” she says. “I’ll meet you there.” She hurries to her family’s stall, buys a couple of skins of wine and heads to the bank. She finds herself relaxing as she watches Klebba skip...

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

    Having spent some time in prayer at the church complex, Surina strolled through the market, her silver scales shimmering in the sun. WIth the influx of refugees in Bit, her family had opened a wine stall in the market, in addition to selling directly to inns and taverns. If she remembered...

    [5E] [OOC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Closed)

    Surina graciously accepts the offer of accommodations, choosing a simple apartment near the temple. She visits the temple several times a week to worship and connect with her fellows sworn to the Family’s service. She checks in with her parents, assuring them she is well and assuring herself...

    [5E] [OOC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Closed)

    @doghead: I’m not worried about name similarities. If you’d rather name her Sariel, I’m fine with that.

    [5E] [OOC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Closed)

    If you are looking for a way to connect with the party, Surina (who is a devotion paladin) might be a good choice: you could have trained together in Crade-Cable, or had contact at the temple in Bit. If that’s the case, Surina will be glad to have you along; she still misses Keth, with whom...

    [5E] [OOC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Closed)

    While Surina would have been very tempted to join the army Everett’s father assemble to deal with Ariamhody (sp?), I can also see her staying in Bit and working to provide food, shelter, etc. For the refugees. She’s one to stand up for the common person, and is probably concerned about how the...

    Critical Role Here's The Cover Of The Explorer's Guide to Wildemount; Plus It's #15 In Amazon Bestsellers!

    Not only that, but they funded a batch of other RPG kickstarters at the same time. When they kept blowing the top out of the goals for the cartoon, critters started suggesting other kickstarter projects that needed attention/support in the comments of CR's kickstarter, and CR's cast encouraged...

    Critical Role The New D&D Book Is 'The Explorer's Guide to [Critical Role's] Wildemount!' By Matt Mercer

    Right; it was part of my point about Tal'Dorei content not being ported over. (Granted, Blood Hunter isn't in Tal'Dorei, but is available on DMsGuild and DDB)

    Critical Role Matt Mercer Speaks About The Wildemount Book

    As someone who is a "critter once removed"--meaning my (teen/young adult) children are critters and that I occasionally watch with them, this (reddit post) sounds exactly like Matt; I could literally hear his voice as I read it. He's passionate about bringing people together, not polarizing...

    Critical Role The New D&D Book Is 'The Explorer's Guide to [Critical Role's] Wildemount!' By Matt Mercer

    There are 3 videos from D&D Beyond about the Wildemount released on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23ExplorersGuideToWildemount A few things that caught my attention: -there will be three Dunamancy subclasses (dunamancy is a new type--but not school--of magic, that...

    [5E] [OOC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Closed)

    At the moment we have a devotion Paladin, a drunken master monk, a samurai fighter and (I think) a dragon blood sorcerer. We are a little short on healing and support, but I’m a big advocate for playing what interests you over balance.

    [5E] [OOC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Closed)

    I updated Surina to 4th level. While I was at it, I updated the spoiler blocks for the "new" forum, but I'm wondering it that makes it harder. Would you rather I take the whole thing out of spoiler blocks? Also, I was looking at Surina's Personality Trait and Flaw and realized I haven't...

    D&D 5E Understanding DM Fatigue

    I’ve been struggling with DM fatigue the last several months, and feeling guilty because of it. It’s nice to hear I’m not alone. Here are some of the factors in my fatigue: -the loss of the player(s) I’m closest to: A few years ago I started up an AL style game at our local library, in great...

    D&D 5E Best low/no prep Tier 1 AL modules

    Thank you! I have both of the Chelimber modules, but hadn't thought of them. I'll give them a re-read as I have time, and print them out to put in an "emergency DM" folder. In Volo's Wake is new to me, but looks like it could be a good one to keep on hand, too. My table last Saturday was all...

    D&D 5E Best low/no prep Tier 1 AL modules

    I’ve started play AL at an FLGS in my area. Yesterday they were long on players and short on DMs, so I agreed to DM a table. Fortunately I have DM’d a few AL modules, even though I haven’t done so as official AL before. I was able to have them print out one I’d run before yesterday. While I go...

    [5E] [OOC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Closed)

    I think a combo of 1 & 2 is the best course, even though I feel bad skipping the final combat. And that despite the fact I wasn’t sure Surina was going to survive it. But this is a super busy time for me, so pausing for a bit would be good.
