    AtG Howling Crag (5e PBP) IC

    certainly happy to try -- levitate (self) at will.

    AtG Howling Crag (5e PBP) IC

    The Colonel continues around the outside, approaching the opening window, where he hopes they will get the drop on the Frost giants. Regardless of whether combat formally starts, the Colonel is too far from the action. If he moves his regular distance (movement halved while climbing?), he can...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) OOC (Full)

    No -- I wrote a message and left it to be delivered (by someone), but didn't send Oh-Six -- TOmi called him to bring him along. I did discuss Oh-Six trailing Ashfell to the House of Long Silences, in case there was something fishy, and I offered an Insight check vs Ashfell, in case there was...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) OOC (Full)

    Sorry -- it wasn't meant as a critique (of you or anyone); just me throwing my hands up. We can always use sending when the time comes, and at least let them know of out situation, and they could theoretically re-open a portal like they are doing now. That might be enough to cover bases...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    With the additional haste, it seems the separate groups are doing nothing that will allow them to maintain contact with the other. Tommi doesn't think that's wise, but he's had his say, and doesn't possess the magic needed to do it himself. Does he hope that they are able to find the group at...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Tommi looks at Vairar. "What plan do you want? Make a suggestion." To a point, Tommi agrees. Tommi wishes that the two were not going off on their own to investigate two of the two less likely sites for the ritual on their own, and he is suspicious of the private family shrine. He's said that...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Tommi accepts Sheren's rebuke, and knows that will be their goodbye until they return. He'd like to tell his mom what's up, but if her doesn't show up for a few weeks, it won't worry her too much. Then Lionel mentions his mom, and so Tommi rwrites a note and leaves it to be delivered to Jyn: No...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Sighing with some relief, Tommi undertakes to answer. "We were going to meet Ashfell at the Happy Cow in one hour's time," he ventures. "I suppose you could wait there, and grab a bite before Ashfell arrived." His voce rises at the end of that, asking her the question if this will be sufficient...

    Level Up (A5E) Druids, Great Clubs weapon proficiency or not, and the Shillelagh cantrip

    In addition to using your casting stat, using Shillelagh with a greatclub would give you access to the Push mastery (in 2024). I agree that is conceptually makes sense to allow it, but I understand why they didn't.

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Tommi is embarrassed that he finds himself caught between his responsibility to Sherlen and his fellow Daggerfordians. Suddenly the belt he wears feels awkward and heavy. It's not like he hasn't been on the wrong side of Sherlen in her official capacity before -- he has; it's how they met -- but...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Tommi listens to Ashfell's answer, and nods. "I'm sorry, sir. I was just afraid that...." He lets his voice trail off, not sure whether or how to articulate what he was feeling. He doesn't love the answer, but he appears to accept it. "And I guess we can always Send a message to the other group...

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    We saw the conservatism of the current fanbase particularly in the 2024 playtest (as I noted at the time, e.g here).

    What Brought You to EN World Today?

    I come here to see what people are saying about the latest version of the game -- rules and features that people want to discuss, even though it is unlikely to have any impact on the way I play the game. What are the rules people want to think through, what are the monsters that are problematic...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Tommi listens to the explanations, conscious that he should be taking notes. But he's not, and he trusts that Morgan has the details. He's impressed at Morgan -- asking clear questions, directly. It's not how he thinks he should talk to Lord Darfin. Yet there are some things bugging him. When...

    Which game books most inspire the "sense of wonder" in you?

    Classic Traveller has always stuck with me -- first inspiring wonder when it came out in the late 70s, and still jingling whatever bells go off inside my head when thinking about boogying around in a little spaceship. Specifically, among the the LBBs, books 5, 6, and 7 (High Guard, Scouts, and...

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 Is Almost Upon Us! Discuss What You Want

    LD is funny, but it's not parody. It's funny in its own terms, as comedy, but it's not at the expense of, mocking, or critiquing the wider franchise. Indeed, it loves the wider franchise -- the whole series is a love letter.
