    D&D 5E (2014) DMG Excerpt: Wonderous Items

    I'd say yes, since in the PHB (if I remember correctly) is explicitated that you gain HP with a CON increase. I don't have the book here though, so bear with me if I'm wrong.

    D&D 5E (2014) DMG Excerpt: Wonderous Items

    Well, you could always ready some some plots on different planes, and randomize over them [emoji6] (edit reason: Android spellchecker)

    D&D 5E (2014) Walking Town Ya or Na?

    Interesting concept! I can imagine that the inhabitants grow food and cattle on patches on the city. As for the artisans, they could be very specialized mithrilsmiths, and actually set the course of the city towards wherever there is a rich vein, or a profitable market; with the earnings, they...

    D&D 5E (2014) I Am SO Over The "Rootless Vagabond" Archetype

    Actually what I was saying was that the Thieves' Guild (or whatever guild) should have reasons to exist, otherwise it's just a CRPG guild, which you join for the quests and maybe a benefit or two, and otherwise doesn't have any impact in the world you're playing. The PCs don't have to join any...

    D&D 5E (2014) Can my table focus on making things fun instead of optimizing?

    I think that it has mostly to do with mindset, and most of the previous posts I've seen corroborate my claim. I would say that if you don't have fun anymore you should quit being DM: try having one of your players master for some time, while you rebuild up your mojo. Switching sides could help...

    D&D 5E (2014) I Am SO Over The "Rootless Vagabond" Archetype

    On to the OP: I prefer to master (and play) PCs with some background; they give me a sense of fullness within the setting, motivates them and give a broader scope to the adventures (but then again I prefer sandbox campaigns to so-called Adventure Paths, and I think the two things are different...

    D&D 5E (2014) I Am SO Over The "Rootless Vagabond" Archetype

    Well, what about the thieves in the Guild? Are they willing to part with some of their profits and still do nothing? Won't the Guild enforcers go after the rogue Rogue (pun intended)? Associations come with both perks and fees, if freelancers are allowed to work untouched then the Guild has no...

    It's refreshing to read through this thread: I'm getting to know settings I wasn't award of! So much good from being away from this hobby so much!

    Spelljammer Fish out of water campaign - Spelljammer

    Actually you could make it a demiplane, as per Planescape; have it made by a wizard with a penchant for nature and maybe the want of nurture a budding civilization.

    D&D 5E (2014) What Campaign Setting(s) Do You Want To See in 5E?

    In reverse order: 4) Eberron (never played in it, but from what I've read sounds interesting) 3) Dark Sun 2) Ravenloft 1) Planescape :-)

    D&D 5E (2014) DMs: How Do You Handle Metagaming?

    Well, first of all I'd describe the monster, without actually saying it's a troll; after that, if exploiting its weaknesses is likeable ok with that, otherwise I'd ask the player if he thinks his PC would actually know that, for example, the troll is vulnerable to fire. But only if the troll AND...

    D&D 5E (2014) Good Campaign Hooks?

    You should find some time, as the setting you've coinceived has a lot of Ravenloft feel (and after all both Ravenloft and Innistrad are WotC IPs, so I can see there has already been some borrowing...) Good luck with your experiment, sounds fun!

    D&D 5E (2014) If you aren't buying magic items, where will you spend your gold?

    Heh, I think WFRP is one of the stingiest games in term of gold :-)
