In my setting I'm thinking that dragonborns are literally an interbreeding between a dragon and a human. Just some greek gods shapeshifting as humans and fathering to demi-gods. So I'm checking if this lore is close to the truth on dragonborn origins. And it is known that chromatic dragons...

hello! Whats the origin of dragonborns? How come there are chromatic colored dragonborns when they don't have the ability to shapeshift? I imagine metallic dragons shapeshifted as a human/humanoid thus there was inter specie breeding. Thanks!

In our group, I guess earliest will be on level 1. :D Well our Level 1 Fighter challenged and fought the dragon at the START of the campaign of Hoard of the Dragon queen. He is new to D&D/pen and paper RPG and perhaps thought it will be just like in video games... *After a brief...

Yeah understood. I think we're sadistically weird? We just take those fumbles as light moments for fun.... until someone stabs someone from their party!

Well we deliberately STILL celebrate on natural 20's and groan on natural 1's. :D We have no intention on removing this.

Thanks for the comments above. Good to know that players are still ok with this adventure. 3.5: player and DM 4e: player and DM 5e: AL player but first time to DM 5e directly from a module Will have to note the tips on enhance HOTDQ.

Hmm.. so I will have new players introduced to D&D and I'm thinking of running HOTDQ. With all the tweaks to 'fix' it, is it really worth running it to new players?

I also beg to differ! :D Pact of chain is very useful, mostly not in combat, but before combat starts or on social interactions. Having an invisible familiar as a scout / spy, a lot of party ambushes can be prevented. Also having a familiar that always has advantage on perception checks is...

Hi EN World, I'd like to discuss effective/creative ideas for the Suggestion spell? Also can this sentence work on an enemy that was cast a Suggestion spell "Betray and kill your allies" ? If it does, its better than crown of madness. Thanks in advance!

Just a question that i think is relatwd. So if the master can see thru its familiar. So say in a dark cave, if the master does not have any dark vision but its familiar has, the master can use its familiar's sight to see in the cave right? Can the master still do so in a combat situation, to...

I'm actually a DM and a player as well. :) Inspired by Temple of elemental evil, wanted to explore the vulnerabilities and resistances of the current monster mix (Pokemon anyone? :D). Also thought of a monster will heal if it was hit by its elemental affinity. Or a skeleton undead is...

Hi EN World, Just wondering if there's a list of monsters/boss and their resistances (or vulnerabilities)? Or if you have one that you can share? More on which ones has resistance to: - Elements (Fire, Ice, Lightning, Thunder etc.) - Bludgeoning, Piercing, Slashing - Charmed, Frightened -...

Thanks for the replies. Just helping out a player. Its open to DM's interpretation but as per PHB under Positions and Movements, dropping a weapon and seathing a weapon, getting a potion from your backpack is a Free object interaction move. So one may rule out that an Eldritch two weapon...

Hi All, Can a two weapon Fighter cast magic (Eldritch Knight)? If not, what's a Fighter's option to conviniently cast magic (somatic) while weilding two weapons? Thanks!

I think the easiest build for a "pure" blade warlock is: Dex up + Decent Dex based Armor + Blade Pact + Life Drinker + Thirsting Blade + Devil's Sight + Darkness Spell Can't hit you when they can't see you. Hit them in the dark.

Read minds? I'll pass. Too much drama/distractions to deal with. I think its not exactly beneficial for trading, if the results gives you both good and bad omen, and you just have one shot at it throughout the day. And even if it gives you good omen, it will not tell you how much will be your...

Just a discussion a friend and I had. We just limited our choices in 5e so I hope its alright to put it in this thread. Anyway if you'll ever have a choice to magically have in real life, choose one option (A, B or C): A. 3x Cantrips (can be cast at-will) B. 2x Level-1 spell (once per day each...

Same topic here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?409230-Warlock-Pact-of-the-Boon-Specific-Wording-Question My answer to this is still the same:

Recently? Sadly, none, haven't touched any of my characters for 3 months now. My real life adventures keeps on interfering with my DnD adventures... And my DnD character is more powerful and cooler than my real life character. Sadly I don't have my DnD spells/skills/items to help me in my real...

In relation on the topic on what kind of "power" did the Warlock get, if they have limited spell slots... Warlocks really have a limited spell casting slot but the that trade off was to "compensate" and have access to: * Pacts (Tome (chance to master all rituals across classes), Blade (melee...
