    2025 Monster Manual to Introduce Male Versions of Hags, Medusas, and Dryads

    yawn Did this with medusa decades ago. Medusas in the Hodgepocalypse are nerdy types that encompass gender options and come in full-color patterns of snakes. One of my reoccurring villains is "The Copperhead Kid," an old west gunslinger Medusa (with an obvious Copperhead snake pattern), that...

    Okay, let's do this one plane at a time. Adding one additional stipulation for myself. 5. while the various deities have their subplanes, an outer plane should stand on its own regarding personality. Mount Celestia: Mountain of Trials Theme: Ascension and enlightenment through trial and...

    D&D General Let's make the upper planes playable!

    The upper planes are currently useless for gaming potential beyond "paradise invaded." Mount Celestia and Aboria, might be helpful if you squint, but has anybody ever used Bytopia? So my challenge is as follows. Let's make the upper planes somewhere enjoyable to run an adventure with a...

    D&D General Should the Platypus be a creature created by wizards, and the Capybara be Small Giant Space Hamsters?

    D&D 5E Baldur's Gate 3 needs more short companions!

    D&D 5E Baldur's Gate 3 needs more short companions!

    D&D 5E How do you do Bastions?

    when it comes to building games, I usually end up cribbing from one of my favorite computer games: Master of Magic. Not only is it a build-a-town game, but it has so many events that it would be interesting to see what could be scaled down to the bastion level.
