    Spoilers Doctor Who s15 (or 2) [[spoilers!]]

    It pretty much matches the Mavity Bubble around a Spelljammer - everyone was in cryogenic freeze from being sucked into space, then the Doctor was able to catch them all by creating a bubble to hold all those floating people in orbit of the space station. It was just as scientific as the hard...

    Spoilers Doctor Who s15 (or 2) [[spoilers!]]

    The Rani is a very different character to the Master though, the Master is Charismatic but Cruel, she's a force of Chaos motivated by ego and obsession. Shes very much the 'evil Doctor'. The Rani was more cynical logic, she's motivated by control and knowledge, but she isnt overtly destructive...

    D&D 5E (2014) Wonder why there aren't any Elemental Domains (Earth, Air, Fire, Water)?

    Personally I think the elemental domains would be a bit boring really. Things like air and earth gods are a bit naff unless theyre given sexier things like Storm Tempest or Volcano. I also think the elemental space is better served with Warlock patrons (Genie Pact) or as Arcane schools But...

    What is a Fighter? A Ninja, a Swashbuckler, a Barbarian, an Archer, a Knight, a Grunt, a Boxer, a Gladiator, a General they all fighters - they all hit people while trying to avoid being hit themselves, thats not the interesting part of fighters is it? Since even a beggar or a shopkeeper can...

    What are some alternate ways to think about archetypes?

    In FATE the Approaches help define how they do it - in the case of the Ninja Turtles all four are Martial Artist (Ninjas in a halfshell) however Ralph is a Forceful & Quick, hard hitting character often reckless with emotion, whereas Leo is Careful & Quick, precise and disciplined, watching out...

    Oh Susan is back! Thats going to be interesting to see if she actually comes back (and then bigenerates) and if Bigeneration is a common thing there must be a whole lot of extra Timelord dopplegangers running around 'out there', the Last of the Timelords monicker really needs to be retired...

    yeah it was see Sam Wilson in Louisiana and Shang-Chi and San Fran a few more location outside NYC would be nice. I'm not sure I like the premise of this story - clever black girl gets caught up in a criminal gang and has to fight to escape the downward spiral. I would have like to see more...

    The Darkforce and Zero Matter energy have both been used in MCU - as has reference to the Dark Dimension (the home of Dormammu ie Hell (so I'm assuming HellDrivers uncle was possesse by it). Dark Matter originates in the Dark Dimension and Cloaks Cloak is made of the stuff

    Spoilers THUNDERBOLTS* (spoilers I guess?)

    Roxxon and dark matter featured in Agent Carter too, via Madam Masque. You could set a long backstory for Nightmare and Roxxon being active since the 1940s linking Agent Carter, Cloack and Digger and Sentry The Blips 5 years at least has the benefit of those affected having no memory and just...

    Spoilers THUNDERBOLTS* (spoilers I guess?)

    Just saw it today, enjoyed it a lot. Thought the set up of them trying to kill each other was a bit contrieved or at least cliche. I understand why they killed Taskmaster but think she should have got one more scene before she got killed off (maybe after the escape) I agree exploration of...

    D&D 5E (2024) Should skills for a campaign based on the 1800s be different from standard D&D

    I find that Persuasion, Insight, Investigation, History and Language Proficiency are all pretty sufficient for Mercantile pursuits in game, the only thing that might be needed is a Logistics skill for the actual handling and shipping of cargoes between markets (unless you actually play that out)...

    D&D 5E (2024) Should skills for a campaign based on the 1800s be different from standard D&D

    I use an 18th century (1700s) setting and the skills cover it pretty well, the only real gap you might have is Engineering (Steampunk) You may want to have Ettiquette (High society) as a feat that gives expertise to Persuasion and History checks rename Nature to Science rename Arcana to...
