    D&D General Abyssal breaches?

    If you want to step outside of a "sulfurous smelling ball/field/arch of fiery energy" box, one could look at what the Abyss is. The Abyss is the realms/planes of Chaos and Evil. They are infinite numbers of planes, because Chaos and Evil are infinite. "The Abyss" is something of a misnomer...

    D&D General class consept question?

    So, you've said it several times, and I presumed someone would have gotten to this by now, but they haven't. Barring that, I would have thought a simple Google search on the word would tell you what you need to know. Again, apparently not. So, here. You're welcome... Bards are from ancient...

    D&D General You're Hasbro/WotC Marketing - What Do You Do for the 50-year Anniversary in 2024?

    Simple. You re-release the Holmes and Mentzer box sets. Re-relase ALL the LJN action figures/monsters/toys (possibly with some new or existing characters that never saw light of day, originally -like more females, halfling, and gnome characters, and more named evil "bad guys"), in poseable and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Dragon themes

    I basically keep to the various themes, minus blues (who, it never made any sense to me would be desert-based). But for a long time now, I've associated chromatics in my setting world with the various "deadly sins." Now, of course, the world has its own cosmologies, pantheon (no Abrahamic...

    D&D General On PC Death

    You missed: "Throw cursed dice across the room. Prolific profanities. Vow never to use those crap dice again. Then, go pick them up to roll up next/replacement character." I click that one.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie - Wild Speculation and Poll

    EXPECT it is set in Forgotten Realms...because WotC branding blahness. HOPE for Serious Fantasy/Action Comedy. EXPECT Action Comedy/Lighthearted fantasy or "fourth wall/out of game discussion" nonsense. HOPE for no framing or in world narrator. EXPECT game table or sucked into the game or other...

    D&D General what is the difference between enchantment magic and illusion magic?

    Bottom line is, you can define and divide up "kinds of Magic" however you see fit, what makes the most sense to you, or your setting/game... or, as illustrated by others here, makes the least sense, for that matter, if that produces the most fun and flavor for your group. As I recall...

    D&D General what is the difference between enchantment magic and illusion magic?

    Yeah. Arcane Magic breakdown in my world has been altered somewhat. There is Illusion and Enchantment magic, but only Illusionist [specialist] mages. There is Conjuration and Evocation magic, but only Conjuror [specialist] mages. There are no "Evokers," as such. If one wants to just be...

    D&D General what is the difference between enchantment magic and illusion magic?

    They are distinctly related/similar. No one is suggesting otherwise. They both effect the mind to varying degrees. Seems people have been quite clear...and you'rejust refusing to accept a difference. The one deals in the senses...perceptions, figments, images and sound, light, shadow, color...

    D&D General Themes and Critters That Don't Get Enough Attention?

    <finger snap!> Got it. The Grell. Not one, single, individual one like the ONLY times you ever find/see them. All of them. All Grell, from wherever Grell come from...Together...under the Supreme Council-Mind of Grells. The Grells have united and are rising up to take over the world...

    D&D General Themes and Critters That Don't Get Enough Attention?

    I think psychic powers and monsters with psychic powers get a short shrift all of hte time/through all editions. I wouldn't mind a well done campaign that involved/centered around psychic creatures...hunting them/defeating them? Something, like, mentally dominating/enslaving a piece of the...

    OD&D Artwork Question

    Just when I thought... OK. So, now, based on your drawing and some venturing outside of 1e sources, there are several OSR materials that fit the bill. However, I think, maybe what you are looking for is this [never before seen by me] piece by D&D maestro, Larry Elmore. Certainly a newer piece...

    OD&D Artwork Question

    OK. Think I'm tapping out... No luck...much like my usual set of dice. HOWEVER...if you are looking for something for the wall with lighting effects, to be able to use your cool sounding LED torches/sconces... I did find these for suggestions... (I am especially fond of the Descent to the...
