    D&D General Vote For Your Favourite D&D Villain

    Acererak and Kyuss are my villains of choice. Return to the Tomb of Horrors scarred me for life. I still need to actually run it someday!

    D&D General Worlds of Design: Chaotic Neutral is the Worst

    "A Chaotic Neutral character is anti-authority and neither an altruist or an egoist." I'd say they're relatively ethical egoists. A CE thief doesn't care who he steals from - he'll swindle little old ladies, stab drunks and take their coin pouch, and sacrifice children to demons for power. A...

    D&D General Worlds of Design: Chaotic Neutral is the Worst

    They wouldn't be pirating all these PDFs if they had money to buy books, rather than spending it on things like avocado toast and school loans for their degrees in elf studies!

    D&D General Have Githzerai always been jerks?

    My take is that the Githzerai and Slaadi largely ignore each other. The Githzerai's concerns have little to nothing to do with the Slaadi, and over the aeons many young Slaadi have learned the hard way that Githzerai are too much trouble to make a good lunch, so they treat them with as much...

    D&D General Worlds of Design: Chaotic Neutral is the Worst

    Back in high school, I loathed CN because my players pretty much took it to be a license to be a dick. Of course, we were in high school - my players could play LG Paladins as complete dicks (and rules lawyer away any attempts to restrict their powers). Let's face it, though - my HS group were...

    D&D 5E Which Magic the Gathering setting would you want added officially to D&D?

    I vote for Kamigawa, since it's unlikely we're getting any Kara-Tur or L5R content in 5E, and I'd love something Japanese. (Well, actually, I'd like something more along the lines of Chinese Fantasy D&D, but hey, I'll take what I can get!)

    D&D 5E Anyone else feeling "meh" about recent 5e releases?

    DCC and Goodman great. And frankly, Kobold Press produces better stuff than Wizards. Their monster books alone should keep me busy until the end of time, and the Midgard Player's Handbook, Deep Magic and Warlock add enough options to keep my players busy. Matt Colville's Strongholds and...

    D&D 5E Anyone else feeling "meh" about recent 5e releases?

    "Thank you for describing exactly how I feel about 5E. A good set of table rules with absolutely nothing that makes me inspired to create for it, or products that make me excited to purchase and use. I want to get excited for it-because it is doing so well and is popular- but after living and...

    Gamers wanted, Minnesota (Twin Cities area). HackMaster

    I'm a dedicated DM - I rarely play - but if you're interested in playing a Midgard 5E campaign here in the Twin Cities, or any of your players are, I'm getting one together twice a month on Sunday nights...

    D&D 5E What are the more interesting 5e settings?

    "The setting book is Pathfinder-only, but most if not all of the adventures set in the Southlands have been converted for 5E." The Midgard Worldbook thoroughly covers the Southlands - with the exception of the sub-Saharan portion, which is yet to come (as are the lands of the far east...

    Starting a new Midgard campaign in Minneapolis - First Game on 8/25/19

    So, a friend of mine and I decided to kick off a new D&D campaign. I've been wanting to run a game of 5th edition since it came out, but haven't had the chance- I regularly DMed 2nd and 3rd edition for nine years (along with the various Star Wars RPGs, and Earthdawn and Alternity as well), but...

    The Magic Item Shop: Creative Expression Through Capitalism

    Ah, but does it have to be a conundrum - why not give mechanical benefits to the guy who builds the city wall for the town? Matt Colville's Strongholds & Followers rules includes a whole system for doing this.

    Check Out The One Ring 2E’s Cover Art!

    Gandalf was in Middle Earth for about 2,000 years... we can assume that he was part of a lot of different adventuring parties during that time. Certainly at least one of them included both a hobbit with a magic sword AND a dwarven woman? :)

    When and why did you stop playing D&D and other TTRPGs?

    I find one shots extremely boring and have no interest in running them or playing them; I'd much rather play board games. Same with organized play; lacks what I'm looking for.
