    D&D 5E (2014) (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

    Tommi pops his head out of the hole, and the sight he sees is not his friend. He had known something had happened to Lionel, but now he started to get a feeling of what was truly behind this devil's demands. Expertise Insight: 1d20+10=18.

    D&D 5E (2024) The New Custom Backgrounds Details

    As expected -- though I would stress that it is framed in terms of something the DM does for their world, not something the player designs with the DM's permission. (Some DMs won't care of course, but I think legitimately some might).

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel listens to the advice of his companions, and prepares to act. Last spell reckoning was in IC 1136: 1/1/3/2/2. The Colonel wants to free this elemental Here are the parameters I see: (a) Banishment should work. 4th level spell with range, Charisma save (which it can choose to fail...

    D&D 5E (2024) How do we feel about 2024 Feats? (Origin vs Others)

    An idea I had for Savage Attacker (not playtested, admittedly) was to give +3 damage in the first round of combat, if you hit. I thin kit isn't meaningfully stronger than what's already there, but (a) it will feel good when it hits, and (b) it ic entivizes a slightly different playstyle (you...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Magic Items, Crafting, Etc

    That's a kind of timekeeping I'm just not going to worry about, and it's not what PT is suggesting. If you imagine crafting magic items is the same as whittling, you do you.

    That's a really good point.

    D&D 5E (2024) How do we feel about 2024 Feats? (Origin vs Others)

    There are better and worse, but they all are viable, except (in my opinion) Savage Attacker, which I don't see ever taking. Crafter is an odd duck because the benefit is a purchasing power one. Do Diamonds as spell components get the discount? If so, it's a valuable feat. Otherwise no. I think...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Magic Items, Crafting, Etc

    It's a helpful summary, and the video has some good insights. My three main takeaways from PT's discussion, though, are these: 1. The idea of a wizard crafting through short rests and while riding a horse is silly and just wouldn't fly at my table. YMMV but I cannot believe that is what's...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel takes the sack of gems, to be shared later. It's a shame there's no personal items per se, but this, at least, is something that will be noticed (assuming the fire Giant -- Smolderheart, was it? -- was alive to notice its absence). The Colonel is ready to leave, when he sees Doc...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel wants to make sure that Doc is protected. Here was the forge, and it's clear the Fire Giant has it fuelled by some magic supply... curious that it even needs the billows, he thinks. Regardless, it would be satisfying to make away with something personal of the giant's, and so he...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    I agree we don't want to go to the excavation, and rescuing the prisoners is the Colonel's priority. I see the room with the doors closed at CB-CK 65-70 on the last map, and it would probably make sense to check it out, if there were appetite to do so. I want to know what's there, even if the...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel is poised to strike, when the echo of two shots rings in his ear, as Doc fires past him and into the heart of the giant before him. The giant's body collapses in front of him. "Good shooting, Doc," says the Colonel before stepping over the corpse to make a quick recce of this room...

    D&D 5E (2014) How Do You Handle Mounted Combat in Tight Spaces?

    If I make a character that rides horses, then I fully understand that I may not be able to do so when in a basement somewhere. Players can make choices to mitigate that (be small and ride a Mastiff) but in my view it's unreasonable to expect that a build deliberately designed around a large...
