    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock liches?

    This is mostly a theoretical character for a potential campaign in the future. We're too busy running a different campaign right now. The idea just popped into my head earlier today.

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock liches?

    They can cast Create Undead (6th lvl spell) in vanilla, which is basically a stronger version of Animate Dead (3rd lvl spell).

    D&D 5E (2014) Tactics for dealing with Polearm Masters

    Goblins. Lots and lots of goblins.

    D&D 5E (2014) How would you conduct an evil campaign?

    A lot of characters are murder-hobos anyway, so pretty much the only thing that would change is locale and types of enemies ;) More seriously, I think it comes down to close collaboration with the players and deciding beforehand how the group dynamic and some story elements will turn out...

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock liches?

    I suppose he could undergo some ritual to infuse himself with enough fiendish energy in order to "ascend" that way, though I doubt a demon prince or arch devil would be on board with that. They would be after the warlock's soul, and giving him immortality won't help that. I doubt they would...

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock liches?

    I understand, in most D&D lore, it's possible for both wizards and clerics to become liches. However, would it be possible for warlocks to achieve lichdom? I don't see why not, since many lich-hopefuls get their ritual from Orcus (a Demon Lord) anyway. I had an idea for a character... A LE/NE...

    D&D 5E (2014) Fifth Age: A hard science fiction 5e conversion

    This is really great! I've spent some time trying to create a sci-fi setting for D&D 5e. I got about as far as modifying the vanilla races, creating some new items, and part-way done with a new class, but this will save me a ton of work. I'll definitely be using the classes, backgrounds, and a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why I Am Starting to Prefer 4d6 Drop the Lowest Over the Default Array.

    My group likes to randomize our whole character creation - race, background, class, and stats. If we don't like the results of the first three, we usually roll again. Randomized results are easier to think about and creates interesting combination to try.

    D&D 5E (2014) 2016 Feats Review

    I've always found the Sharpshooter feat to be really annoying. The character can ignore 3/4 cover, even if it's just the guy's toe sticking out from behind the obstacle. Then combine that with a Hunter/Assassin build and you're basically one or two shotting everything with a pulse.

    D&D 5E (2014) Our Wizard is now a Xorn!

    The magic was not performed by him, though. It was a trick object in the dungeon.

    D&D 5E (2014) Seeking information and inspiration

    Pretty much all you really need is the PHB and some basic information that would be common knowledge in the DM's world. The DMG and MM are just bonus points. A couple things I learned is that (1) the Beast Master ranger archetype is almost useless, (2) spells like Goodberry and Create Food and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Our Wizard is now a Xorn!

    The original purpose of the spell that caused this conundrum was to switch the minds of the individuals that stood at points A and B. Our halfling wizard tricked the Xorn guide into switching with him. However, the spell went wrong and now both minds are inhabiting the body with relatively equal...

    D&D 5E (2014) Our Wizard is now a Xorn!

    So... Long story short, our wizard is now sharing bodies with a Xorn. I've been trying to figure out how that would effect the game mechanically. I have some ideas, but I want to get a second opinion. 1. Alien Physiology: Due to the alien nature of the Xorn's mouth, the wizard has disadvantage...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is WotC ever going to release something high level? Even as UA test material?

    You want a high level encounter? A group of Empyreans take a day trip to the Material Plane while riding a pack of terrasques. They stumble upon your city and decide to have some fun with the townsfolk. Roll initiative. B-)

    D&D General Welcome Thread

    Hey y'all! I'm a gamer from Middle Of Nowhere, Texas. I was introduced to D&D (5e) about two years and have been running my first campaign for about a month or two. However, most of my group has read the core books practically cover-to-cover, so I'm hoping to delve into the online community in...
