    Brainstorm: Let's generate a bunch of really cool and unique ocean based random encounter.... GO!

    We're talking out in the middle of the ocean? Mermaids! Blood-thirsty mermaids!

    Help me flesh out a plot idea

    So, I'm going to be starting up a RL campaign soon. The campaign is one I ran in PBEM form over a ridiculous timeframe, and I have enough content and stuff to keep them busy for quite a while - though I have to ultimately decide where I want to take it long term. I decided that I could make it...

    Collaborative Cave #2 - Updated map (see 1st post) - Now doing room assignment

    That's good. Probably a good idea to give them fair warning about the TPK room just up ahead. ;)

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Items found during the game: How do you handle the "oh look, this random dungeon just happens to have that sword my character wanted."

    Yea, I don't do that. The loot tends to be common stuff, with occasional oddball things. That said, generally have some kind of dealer who trades in magic items. But those systems work on an economic scale where money doesn't work - you have to trade for items. So, generally speaking, by the...

    Looking for Mundane Item Chart

    How do you accurately depict a small centaur with a colossal statue? Include a colossal ruler alongside the centaur for scale? lol!

    Sign up for a room, and it might happen just that much faster. :)

    D&D 5E (2014) Attunement

    Not sure I get what you're saying. It's not really there by default. It's a flat 3 item limit, regardless of -anything-. So, there's no scaling whatsoever. While I agree with you that most characters won't have 3 items by the time you're level 4, so it's hardly a relevant problem. But having...

    Looking for Mundane Item Chart

    This sounded like an interesting task. So, here you go: What's in that pocket? Use this table for any successful pick-pocket attempt of any regular peasant or street rabble. Generally speaking, the peasantry don't typically carry stuff of much value. Additionally, this chart could be...

    D&D 5E (2014) Attunement

    Well, maybe he doesn't want them to have to make hard choices? I like the idea of scaling it with level, like proficiency, although +6 at level 20 is probably too high - most campaigns aren't going to go that far anyway. You could set it at proficiency -1. But that means that the first 4...

    D&D 5E (2014) Attunement

    Hey KarinsDad - it's been a long time. I haven't read this whole thread, but like you, I A) love magic items and B) am also a bit concerned about the artificially low 3 item limit imposed. And I preface this by saying that I haven't even played a single game of 5E yet, and only got my books...

    D&D 5E (2014) damage vulnerability mechanics?

    Wow, cool. Can't believe that site still exists, and the file is still there. Amazing. Thanks for the link. I'm amazed at how much free time I apparently used to have. Then I had kids....

    Collaborative Cave #2 - Updated map (see 1st post) - Now doing room assignment

    Indeed. There is no reason why it couldn't be finished. Nearly 6 years' wait is a long time to ENWorld, to the Bodak in room #14, it's a mere moment while it bides its time until someone foolish enough decides to open that door... I see several references to an Aboleth, but nothing statted. I...

    Of course. Put it in the PHB. That makes perfect sense. O.o Thank you

    D&D 5E (2014) damage vulnerability mechanics?

    Just recently thought it would be fun to get back into D&D again, and am actively working on forming a group of friends to do just that, and some are very excited. But I digress. Recently ordered these books, and I really like the overall premise. It seems to hearken back to 2nd edition in...

    D&D 5E (2014) MPMB's D&D 5e Character Tools

    Love the sheet. Any way we can get a non-value generating version? One that just has blanks where the 10s in the ability score boxes are, for example. I just want blank sheets I can print for my players so they can fill in the values at the actual gaming table, minus any electronic devices.

    It's almost official: FanCC is dead. Come to the Funerals.

    Would you be surprised to know that you responded to a post I made nearly 9 years ago?? lol I was just sitting here, when I got a message about being quoted on ENWorld, and I was like, wtf?

    A Korean Prostitute's calling card (anyone know Korean)? - threadomanced

    I wondered why I got a recent posrep for this thread. The internet works in mysterious ways. And yes, I do feel slightly vindicated. How fascinating.
