    D&D 5E (2014) DM Question: Player died and entered Ring of Mind Shielding. How shall he (and his party) get him out?

    This. Ooo-oh, yea-ah. This. I laugh, but I love this idea. Spring this one on your players. That isn't a mere Ring of Mind Shielding, it's a unique artifact, the Ring of the GeoLich.

    D&D 5E (2014) DM Question: Player died and entered Ring of Mind Shielding. How shall he (and his party) get him out?

    Look at the concepts for creating a warforged. Some origins for that race say that to activate a warforged's body, a soul must be infused to it. Nothing 5e-official has come out yet for the warforged race, other than one Unearthed Arcana article. There has been at least one offering on the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Survivor Core Classes- Fighter Wins!

    Taking the long view, RPGs had their genesis in war games in which fighters are the only "class". It's fitting that the fighter won. A bit of whimsy: imagine this thread were a story-board for a graphic book or a movie and each poster described the actions in their respective posts. It would...

    Warped-mind report: Oh, dear. The allusion to the Wizard of Oz in that phrase above threw the idea up into my imagination the notion of a small dog named "Toto" as an Otherworldy Patron. A small, yapping patron. This is not good.

    Bard 7 Fighter 11 -2 = 9 Paladin 6 Rogue 9 +1 = 10 Warlock 5 Wizard 6 Uh-unh, @DaviMMS. Although, I admit my rogue getting advantage against your fighter ain't happening in this arena, so I couldn't use my Sneak Attack damage dice.

    Bard 15 Cleric 1 + 1 = 2 -- Whereas clerics run the gamut of alignments and are thereby more representational of the general public ... Druid 3 Fighter 14 Paladin 9 - 2 = 7 -- ... paladins use their self-righteous (and perhaps mistaken) perspective as a justification to smite (rogues like me)...

    Bard 18 Cleric 7 Druid 7 Fighter 20 Paladin 10 - Because I'd miss this class the least - and because my multiclass monk/sorcerer bought the farm when the party's paladin used his last remaining points in Lay on Hands to heal the party's barbarian instead.

    D&D 5E (2014) Mechanics for a hunt (with the characters being the hunted)

    1. I'm stealing this idea. 2. Roughly outline a number of things the PCs must accomplish within the time limit and what they know about the territorial boundaries. You can get ideas by looking at their class features for ways to challenge each of their strengths. Maybe their backgrounds will...
