    D&D General Religion in D&D: Your Take

    Eh, I think a generic version of the Piety system could fit into the DM's Toolkit pretty easily - certainly not a full "here's a detailed list of benefits for every deity" like in Theros, but guidelines for building such a list and an example or two.

    D&D General Religion in D&D: Your Take

    Never been particularly interested in Theros as a setting - it's fine, really, just not big on MtG stuff - so its gods don't do much for me, but as far as I'm concerned, the Piety system deserves to be a core tool for religious characters everywhere.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Cleric"

    I mean, depends on where he is in his proverbial character arc. Apart from the death of Baldur and Ragnarok, Loki could pass as a character out of Looney Toons almost effortlessly, and even the former is basically a prank that went way too far. And his more explicitly villainous acts hint at...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Cleric"

    I would also count more general mischief-makers - Jester from Critical Role's second campaign is a pretty good example of a Trickery Domain Cleric as part of a group.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Video Schedule: July 1st-12th!

    Hmm... Still no video link...that I can find, at least. Maybe they forgot to set up the premier.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Video Schedule: July 1st-12th!

    Just as a general heads-up, I have an appointment that will delay any breakdown for tomorrow's dragon video, and given the fact that it will presumably be much more art design focused and less mechanical, I'm not sure me doing one would be of much use. I'll still post a video link as soon as I...

    D&D 5E (2024) What is the 2024 Bard Power Source?

    Logos - the Words of Creation.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    With the usual caveat of it being a potentially out of date source, here's the Lore Bard's Magical Discoveries feature from UA6:

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    No idea whether it's changed for the final version, but here's the bard's Spellcasting feature from UA6: The verbiage used is "prepare" (which I think is being standardized across all spellcasters), but they function very much like traditional "spells known" casters.

    D&D 5E (2014) Quests from the Infinite Staircase TOC and Zargon.

    Sensible way to go about it. I talk about ancient baatorians because I'm a planar lore junkie, but in-universe, they've been gone so long that only the most ancient planar entities have ever even heard of them, and the few places they're implied to still exist are basically treated like...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    A cursory search of Beyond shows that Vicious Mockery and Power Word Heal are bard exclusive, at least as of the 2014 ruleset. Hardly a comprehensive list, but a couple of examples from opposite ends of the spell level spectrum, so that would imply bards will probably have some spells unique to...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    That was from when they were experimenting with unified spell lists and the bard chose one (Arcane, Divine, or Primal) to start with. They've since reverted that, so Bard has a distinct class spell list again now, which would presumably include anything they want kept "bard exclusive"...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    Like I said, a bit unclear in the video, but going by UA6, it was "AND".

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    Admittedly a bit unclear in the video, but going by the version of Magical Secrets in UA6, it seems to imply that once you hit level 10, your bard spell list expands to include everything from the cleric, druid, and wizard spell lists.
