    Grappling tweak

    Thanks. I am still mulling the rules. They do not seem as clear to me as I would like them to be. I know how I will rule when I am DM but I want to feel confident about how to discuss when I am a player. What do you think about the following...? I want my low level monk to be able to...

    Grappler Change this: • You can use your action to try to pin a creature grappled by you. To do so, make another grapple check. If you succeed, you and the creature are both restrained until the grapple ends. To this: • You can use your action to try to pin a creature grappled by you. To do...

    Dragonborn & Green Dragon Breath Weapon

    My bad. Yes, it should have been poison damage not acid damage.

    Grappling tweak

    For rules as written, grapple can be done instead of an Attack but it is not an Attack action so cannot be followed up with the bonus action attack or Flurry of Blows. That is the tweak I want to make.

    Grappling tweak

    Looking for thoughts and input concerning Grappling for 5e. I want it to work better for monks or at least a monk or any other character that takes the Grappler Feat. There are a couple of ways I could do this and am looking for input. Option 1 For the monk Martial Arts change to the...

    Dragonborn & Green Dragon Breath Weapon

    One of my players created a dragonborn and we were both a little puzzled that the green dragon poison breath weapon only did damage so I have house ruled the following tweaks. By the way, this tweak will also apply to a green dragon in the adventure (LMoP) that they will inevitably meet. Muha...

    Kobolds, Cutpurses, & Horses!

    This is the first set in a while where I want or at least like all of the figures in the set (well, maybe not the Frostgiant Mage). Often I am only interested in 3 or 4 at most. See more of this set here: http://www.pathfinderminis.com/gallery20.htm

    Barbarian - Path of the Spellbreaker

    I like this a lot. I was watching the Frazetta/Bakshi cartoon Fire and Ice this weekend and love the part where the Panther Lord is fighting the Ice Lord who is trying to restrain him with magic which the Panther Lord is overcoming with just willpower.

    [UPDATED] RAGE OF DEMONS! New D&D Storyline Features Drizzt, Underdark, & Demon Lords!

    I think many misread that release. For the tabletop rpg, Drizzt will not be around. Drizzt is only in the CRPG. "Players of the tabletop roleplaying game can descend into the Underdark in Out of the Abyss, a new adventure which provides details on the demon lords rampaging through the...

    Scale of Forgotten Realms Maps

    I am new to the Realms but does anyone else find the distances/map scale excessive for the recent few adventures set in the Forgotten Realms (Phandelver, Dragon Queen, Apocalypse Princes)? If so, how have you adjusted it. For example from Baldur's Gate to Waterdeep appears to be from 500...

    Passive Perception = 10 + Wisdom modifier +5 if you have Advantage -5 if you have Disadvantage In the example in the free Basic Rules, +2 Proficiency Bonus is also included. It does not say that the example character has Skill Proficiency in Perception so I am not clear if that was just...

    Lightfoot Halfling Naturally Stealthy Trait

    I find the Lightfoot Halfling trait, "Naturally Stealthy", sort of useless. "You can attempt to hide even when you are obscured only by a creature that is at least one size larger than you." I think I will house rule this to be "You have advantage when attempting to hide or move without being...
