    A Candlekeep Mystery (IC)

    "That seems right." Argenti muses. After a pause, she continues. "I bet there are more of those bugs in that room to the west, they might try to follow us if we avoid them, what should we do about it?"

    A Candlekeep Mystery (IC)

    Argenti dusts herself off. "Ethian, Crock Jon, shall we head off?"

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    "I would hardly be asking for help if the situation wasn't more involved than a simple Sul day walk." Eyrena conceded. "My sister has a condition, nothing contagious mind you, but that would draw the ire of the Queens Watch." "That's why I have to get her to Southshore, to the Unbroken." The...

    (IC) We be Jammin' (5e PBP)

    The sudden quake caused Glau to jiggle like a bowl of jelly. Unable to stabilize themselves due to the extended pseudopod, the plasmoid topples into a heap alongside the Gnome and his dragonfly. "Capitan? Are you hurt? Should we get back to the ship?" Dex Save: 1D20+2 = [10]+2 = 12

    (IC) We be Jammin' (5e PBP)

    Glau was unfamiliar with the local customs, but from their experience, it wasn't best to sweat the small details. The ooze extended a pseudopod up to the gnome, and poked him in the cheek. "Hello, I am Glau." The plasmiod said with a voice that sounded vaguely like a bagpipes.

    A Candlekeep Mystery (IC)

    Argenti rubs her amulet and says a prayer to Geb for luck, then hurls a glowing green rock. "HYAH!" The rock weaves it's way between the falling dirt and stone, making it clear across the crumbling cave, but past the intended target. The rock collides with the back wall, and magically...

    A Candlekeep Mystery (IC)

    I think Argenti has LoS on the Meenlock, but I would have to know what kind of penalties are applying to the attack roll given the situation.

    (IC) We be Jammin' (5e PBP)

    The small green creature crawled out of the backpack and stretched to get a membrane full of the local air. "Breathe Free or Die!" was one of the crew's mottos, and all too often the meaning was literal. Normally, the plasmoid would spring out at the first sign of hostility to protect the...

    Anyone have any interjections for the conversation?

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e: Stat the Lady of Pain...so we can overthrow her

    Because there has historically been an illogical, if not downright rabid, hatred of the setting from vocal corners of the D&D fanbase. A hatred that has persisted for almost 30 years now. The vitriol is positively exhausting if you actually like to have fun in the setting. Furthermore, nobody...

    Spelljammin' (5e PBP OOC) (Full)

    Glau: AC 15, HP 55, THP 0, HD 5/5, PP 13, R 3/3 The fun thing about being a plasmoid is you can just literally plop down any appropriately colored blob and it will work for a mini or token.

    WotC Wizards of the Coast Is Moving -- But Not Far!

    Apparently the building they are moving into is still in Washington state, just outside of Seattle. Some people just can't move past the 90's.

    A Candlekeep Mystery (IC)

    "Cairn, take care of Hawthorn and Kaliban!" Argenti calls out as she darts into the roots to the west. Splitting the party by necessity, might as well try an even split to give us the best chances of survival.

    Candlekeep Mysteries (OOC Chat)

    Argenti could make it into the tunnel to back up Ethan. She doesn't suffer from difficult terrain from rocks and stones.

    D&D 5E (2024) The rapier problem

    The main thing that prevents Swashbucklers from using scimitars is a lack of proficiency. Most Rogues don't even get to use them for no good reason. Otherwise, Slashing damage is a superior damage type to Piercing: Marginally less resisted by monsters, better VS most objects, and has better...

    Accustomed to earth and stone, Argenti dodges the deadly dropping debris! Dex Save: 1D20+2 = [19]+2 = 21

    D&D 5E (2024) RIP, 2014 PHB backgrounds

    Standard Backgrounds in the PHB should be full on custom, with maybe an example or two. Premade backgrounds should be regulated to Setting books, where they can have maximum flavor, and potentially setting specific feats to better reflect them.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Next playtest post mortem by Mike Mearls and Rodney Thompson. From seven years ago.

    They also dropped a bit of info about the Campaign Creation Contest from back in 3e. Apparently the Aerenal (undead) elves in Eberron were actually part of Rich Berlew's pitch.

    The Mourning After (Horror) (IC)

    The woman steps into the alley. Appropriately cautious, but willing to take a risk. "Eyrena Niadh." She greets you with bow and a flourish. DC 15 History: "As the saying goes, 'A friend in need is a friend indeed.' From what I gather, those hounds, and those guards, are after you." Eyrena...

    D&D 5E (2014) How Many PHB's have you bought?

    Two. One digital, one hardback. I was sorely tempted to get the alt-cover pack, but I am waiting on 2024 to do that.
