    Monk Tradition: Sohei/Kensei

    I found this tradition to be a bit over-powered compared to other martial classes, and revised the 6th level feature to reign it in a little. Imo, starting out the Iajutsu Strike feature with a d12 superiority die is too much, too early, and so, the revision below: Iaijutsu Strike At 6th level...

    Giant Strider

    Okay; thank you. Given that the phoenix is both feathered and fiery, I see no reason not to update the great strider to have feathers, too. Possibly make them as colorful as the quetzlcoatl.

    Giant Strider

    Converted from what pre-5e source? What is its origin and how does it come by its affinity for fire? What does it look like?

    D&D 5E (2014) The tech types of your homebrew settings and characters

    Works for me. Now about that crashed spaceship. I understand there's a middle-aged, childless couple out in the Cormyrean Mid-west that are raising a little boy with a remarkably indestructible red blankie ...

    How did they handle getting breatheable air / cleaning out polluted air?

    D&D 5E (2014) The tech types of your homebrew settings and characters

    There was a solo module published back in the 80s titled "The Maze of the Riddling Minotaur." It included instructions for adapting the adventure for group play, which I did, but doing so required developing some riddles on my own. One of those riddles involved something (I don't remember the...

    [WIP] New Cleric Domain: Community

    Oh. Now I'm wanting someone to develop a Mind or Dream domain. Will this ever end? <sigh>

    [WIP] New Cleric Domain: Community

    This is good. So, the level 8 feature: -Community Domain: Divine Strike (psychic) (as Liane the Wayfarer wrote it in #9). Would that be adding a damage die? If so, making it a d6 (raised to 2d6 at 14th level) makes some sense to me insofar as we wouldn't step on the War domain's d8. Or...

    [WIP] New Cleric Domain: Community

    Unfortunately, I lack that one. If I contribute to building this Domain, I'll need to pick up a copy of it first, though maybe the Pathfinder CRB will have something comparable.

    Thank you. I appreciate both the game-aid and all the new names you've tossed into the mix.

    D&D 5E (2014) Favorite method of generating ability scores

    Your reason why had me wondering for a moment if it would be possible to have all the players re-do their stats at every game.

    D&D 5E (2014) Favorite method of generating ability scores

    Intriguing. This is a variant I have not heard of before.

    My warped mind has already cross-bred these with Star Trek's tribbles. They're born pregnant ... and hungry.

    D&D 5E (2014) Favorite method of generating ability scores

    Point buy, in order to promote balance between PCs in the group. My experience with dice-rolling ability scores has been that, while a player might want to re-roll the attributes if the first results were very lousy, I've never known a player who wanted to re-roll results that are up in the...

    The Uncommoner (a class for those that are commoners, but not really)

    This is a workable alternative. The character I developed to get a better idea of the class started to become unwieldy in the 2nd tier; it already had too many options. It seems to me that steeldragons' scaled-down, prestige-class suggestion captures the essence of what bedir than was seeking...

    The side bar itself is an ooze, and randomly moves around the book.

    The Uncommoner (a class for those that are commoners, but not really)

    Yes, for starting ability scores. On the test PC I'm developing, I used the 27-point purchase method for ability scores. It's the variant human build, and the breakdown of costs/scores led to 5/13 on three abilities (Str/Con/Wis) and 4/12 on the remaining abilities. Str and Wis got the extra...

    The Uncommoner (a class for those that are commoners, but not really)

    You didn't ask for fluff, but I'm providing some anyway since I prep all my character sheets with what I label as "(Class) Culture". Uncommoner Culture Pragmatic, Stoic, and Stubborn. Often described as the salt-of-the-earth, an uncommoner regards whining as a waste of time. If one runs into...
