    D&D General Slaads are failures as exemplars of Chaotic NEUTRAL

    So, how should a sentient chaotic neutral exemplar behave?

    WotC New D&D Stream Replaces Dice, Camera, Action!

    I listen to CR. I tend to play it at 1.25x speed, and in two parts over two days. If character moments don't do it for you, I can see why you might not like CR.

    D&D General How long do new players get before they're expected to know the rules?

    Played as written, casters need to spend more time to work out their spells. Clerics especially, since they've got the entire spell list to their level to choose from each time. If the DM says, "You spend a peaceful night, and then reach your destination around midday," the casters are going to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mythological Figures & Maleficent Monsters: suggest who to include

    Ahab and crew from Moby Dick The Three Musketeers

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    It definitely wasn't Tatooine. There's no rain on Tatooine, no water in runnels, and the Jawas have yellow eyes. Definitely no edible frogs. ;)

    Curmudgeon's Corner: So, what's the deal with Critical Role?

    I follow Crit Role and some computer game let's plays on 1.25x or even 1.5x. I listen to most 'explainer' videos at 1.25x. People talk too slow, at least compared to text reading. And I usually browse forums or art sites while I do so. I think the following CR has garnered shows just how good it...

    D&D 5E (2014) Setting a game in the Astral Plane

    Maybe even a dead god can dictate gravity to others?

    D&D 5E (2014) Setting a game in the Astral Plane

    MtoF says that the Gith raids can take anything, up to and including buildings. Any vermin in those will end up on Tu'narath. The Gith also raid and combat Mindflayers, so creatures associated with them will end up there too. As will almost any sentient species, as the Gith take slaves, treat...

    D&D 5E (2014) Setting a game in the Astral Plane

    I want to set a game in the Githyanki capital city, which is set on a dead god in the Astral plane. Any ideas to deal with gravity or the lack of it? What fauna would live in such a city (cranium rats for starters - would there be flying things?) I also imagine bored Gith would hold 'wild...

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    I think The Mandalorian is the most 'Star-Wars-y' show in any medium since before 'A New Hope' had a name.

    What's the definition of a magic desert? A place with many dry spells.

    D&D 5E (2014) Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh - worthless gold?

    Well, the apple doesn't have to be pure gold. Maybe even gold-plated? However nuggets are natural gold, which tends to be at least 85% pure, so I can't explain that one. A dwarf with a very small fist?! :unsure:

    WHAT NEW MINIATURES YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE MADE?

    I think you can pose up, then buy the STL file, from Hero Forge. Probably could make workable kiddie half-orcs as well. Supers should be a doddle, if you don't get too ambitious.

    D&D 5E (2014) What is your current way to roll stats

    Our group couldn't settle on a method: point-buy was limiting, but dice rolling meant that someone might get the short end of the stick. So we got the DM to roll 4d6 drop low, 6 times. We could then arrange the numbers in whichever order suited the class we wanted to play. He rolled pretty well...

    D&D 5E (2014) What Characters And Concepts Are You More Excited About With The New UA?

    Tallus Von Bacula, my gnome necromancer, is just happy to add "speak with dead" to his spell list!
