I'm concerned with power level and rules language. Thanks in advance! Wingman’s Baldric requires attunement This leather sword-belt is studded with square-cut blue-green gemstones, that light up when the belt is employed. You may carry a single creature, up to your creature size, without...

It always bothered me a little, because it makes Lightning Bolt a strictly inferior spell to Fireball. Not a deal-breaker, it just bugs me. I've always wanted to have elemental damage be consistent across spells, sort of like Tonguez is describing.

I've played one game where two of us had it, and while it wasn't that overpowered it did seem "disruptive" in the manner SakanaSensei describes. I wouldn't want it to be a universal option and show up all the time the way Guidance does.

Two thoughts on the changes to criticals: 1) Letting monsters have crits could now be an example of an "opt-in" rules option, where DMs can implement it out of a desire to make the base game more deadly. 2) Reducing critical hits to just increasing the base die would allow for the...

Unless she does it more than once in the movie, I'm going to assume that she said she could do it, and the DM didn't want to interrupt the game to look up whether it was legal. Afterwards, they had a talk and the player agreed not to do it again.

I too have a regular game and other things I'd like to do on my birthday. However, back in my college days, I more than once was asked to run a customized game for a friend as their birthday activity.

I have a plot idea that works great for using a Nagpa (or more than one) as a master villain. I read Mordy's Guide, and it says the nagpa were cursed to "be able to acquire new lore and magical power only from the ruins of fallen civilizations and great calamities." I'm looking for ideas on...

As a 52 year old gamer myself, and a Critical Role fan, I'd say you're fine. Just try to draw on your inner twelve-year old and bring that energy to your character. (Oh, and make sure your character has emotional baggage to work on.) As a specific suggestion - the thing that CR does more than...

I haven't started running Call of the Netherdeep yet, but some of the encounters look pretty heavy on the CR to me. Of course, other modules grossly underestimate what a group of PCs can handle, so it may not be an issue.

I wonder how much the modules have been written this way to make them "easier to run". I would think that whether that is true has a lot to do with what players a DM has to work with.

I still use bloodied myself. I reference a lot of old rules, but don't often deliberately use them.

I'm curious how much DM "fixing" - a la the Alexandrian's rebuilds - this module will need. At least the plot appears more plausible than some.

I like the idea of fighters getting more combat maneuvers, but I foresee a problem that would basically require the rule-makers to stick to their guns. Namely, that once you give fighters (for the sake of example) a called shot ability, you have to steadfastly resist the arguments of people who...

My college group decided that everything was Dave's fault. It saved time.

Well, you could use something like "restoration" or "preservation" as the positive word to better oppose corruption, if one of them felt right. Another word with a connotation of "building faithfully" might work better than those.

I love the idea, but something about my writing brain doens't like "Corruption" as the word here. I'd want a thematic word that better projects the antithesis here. Nitpicking comment over. Keep up the good work.

Goblins of the world, unite!

Like a lot of the weirder campaign ideas, this idea cries out for artwork. Do you have someone in your group who can draw peoples' characters?

And in the 2019 Watchmen series. Wasn't he also mentioned in Timeless?
