It really depends on the game. But ultimately, I am most interested in it to the degree it might influence my specific character's beliefs and choices engaging with the world. But I don't necessarily have a preference for what that degree should be.

I recently joined an ongoing D&D 5E campaign. The characters were all 8th and 9th level when I joined and I got to make one too. They had been playing together for some time (actually not really sure how long or who else is "new" to this particular campaign - just longer than me). Last night I...

The pizza I am really into currently is a white pizza with feta, broccoli, and red onions. The umami flavor you get from the combo of broccoli and the cheese from the oven is <chef's kiss>

I just wanted to swing to say that once again I started a thread, but X'ed out the window and said, "forget it" before submitting.

Except for one case, every thief I saw in 1E or 2E was a multiclassed character. The one case was a party where people played more than one character, so I played a thief who always was uber cautious and rarely got into direct combat and a elven fighter/magic-user. As for finding and then...

This thread is like an Edition Cold War. :LOL:

I started with B/X-CMI (I never knew there was a difference between my Basic and Expert sets and the continuation in the Companion Set until sometimes in the 2000s!) but dropped it before M and I came out in favor of AD&D. I'd probably try any edition of D&D with the right group (except...

I checked but both my copies, purchased in 2019 and 2021, are 10th printing (2018).

While I created a witch class by modifying the warlock a good deal, I know you are not looking to do that, I did however control for flavor (I didn't want a witch to be much of blaster either) by curating their spell list from among the lists for other classes (mostly wizard, druid, and cleric).

What is a “movement point system”?

This made me want to both :love: and :cry:, so I just (y), because I get it.

What's that thing where a poster is taking both sides of an argument no one else in the thread seems to be making?

Well, it didn't blow up the campaign, but it certainly disrupted it some. The drawing of the cards (see OP for their results) went as follows: Fin, the halfling gloomstalker ranger (who I knew would not be able to resist) went first, drawing two cards: 1. Well - learns a cantrip! (in this...

I don't disagree, but I really want the players to go into this knowing the potential scope, so they don't feel "gotcha'ed" when something really bad happens. Of my current group of four, I have 1 player I know for certain no matter what is gonna draw at least one card (probably more) b/c that...

I don't disagree, but the cards are being pulled a fortnight before the next full moon and right at the beginning of at least a week of planned downtime, so if someone chooses this one they will have it for a week at the most - and a lot of that will be during overland travel. Yeah. I am...

OK, so the tl;dr version of this post is the simple poll question, "Will using the Deck of Many Things in my 5E game blow up my campaign?" The party is 4th level, about to advance to 5th. My games usually end before 10th level. The longer explanation is as follows: So, I received the Book of...

Prepping for Game Day!

I voted "A year or so" but it could just as easily be "a few months" because of the weird time dilation that happens when you are 12 - but I tried both Star Frontiers and Marvel Super Heroes within a year of starting D&D.
