I think you should discuss it with your players and see what they think. Maybe they would prefer a less lethal game all around, and you might be better off having characters be knocked unconscious rather than killed. Or maybe they'll make a group decision that the dice fall where they may, and...

It's basically Japanese, from anime and games. The rating system has your standard A - D grades, but then there's a special 'S' tier, which is supposed to be very rare and carry the implication that it stands outside the regular rankings. In practice, though, a lot of times it just becomes the...

Actually, if you just want to live forever, why not a classic adventure to find the Fountain of Youth? At the end, have the PCs find the Fountain deep in an uncharted wilderness, each takes a drink, and as they leave, have an earthquake or massive rock slide bury the Fountain. The PCs become...

I think vampire would be the best fit. Pass as normal, good for thieves and daggers. The gnome part would be a little weird, but just go with it. The only real problem would be having to adventure at night, but it's surmountable--witness all the tv shows and books with vampire characters--if the...

Player makes a deal with Mab, Queen of Air and Darkness, for three favors and she restores him. There's no way this could go badly!

Eye of wizard and toe of warlock, Wool of druid and tongue of bard...For a witch of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble. That's an interesting question. If you have a class which has aspects from four other classes, you could make four subclasses or skins of the original classes...

I think you really have to define the difference between Witches, Warlocks, and Wizards. I think the defining restriction is that Witches cannot conjure. They cannot create something from nothing. But they can control and craft. I don't think a Witch could cast a Fireball, but she might be...

I'm not sure that 3E is my favorite version, but it definitely was my favorite time period. The OGL brought so much energy to the hobby!

First off, I don't think streaming is professionals-only. It also seems to be something amateurs do. I'm in an online game guild, and some of our members stream. There seems to be no real reason that they do, we're completely middle-of-the-road, and any audience is minimal. It's just something...

Yeah, basically give the dragon some agency and purpose (she is or will be a powerful good creature), and don't make her a passive McGuffin that just gets captured.

Hmm. I think that changes things quite a bit. After five years, he's a friend. Maybe he thinks that everyone in the group would like this, or has expressed interest in something like this before?

I think you should give Dabshabah a reason or purpose when she got captured. So that gives the PCs a way to track her down. For example, does Chult have slavers? Maybe the youngest urchin was captured by the slavers. The other two told Dabshabah, and she went off to rescue him. Unfortunately...

Let's look at this question from another angle. In any given setting, there are several nations who are major powers, and generally keep each other in check. If one nation got a single 20th-level wizard, would that be enough to defeat and conquer its rivals? Quite possibly the answer is yes...

Sometimes I think that D&D would work better if we used concrete stats for the 3 physical attributes, but then had mental stats and personality be more abstract. Maybe pick 3 descriptors to describe your character's personality. Then you have formal checks for the physical side, but handwave...

The novels? The main ones are the original Chronicles trilogy and then the Legends trilogy. See DragonLance - Book Series In Order After that you can pick and choose what you like. One problem is Dragonlance kept on having world-changing events, so I don't know which era your table is playing...

The type of players who want to play Kenders are the type of players who shouldn't be allowed to play Kenders.
