    D&D 5E (2014) Crash-Course On The Forgotten Realms

    Waterdeep has an extensive sewage system If waterdeep was entirely flat (no tall buildings), 2M people would have 73 sq ft per person in a city that is 5.25 sq mi. When you add in apartment buildings in entire districts that dynamic changes a lot. I think 2M is high, but it's not unreasonable.

    D&D General How does a guild use it's power?

    This ^^ Magic is everywhere. Why would the guilds not have it in equal measure to those outside of the guild? Take Eberron for example. The Dragonmarked houses essentially act as Guilds with a bit more oomph behind them, but still. House Ghallanda is a great example. The build inns and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Excluding Healing Spirit, is 5e Healing too weak?

    There are a TON more ways to handy out temp hp in 5e which prevents the need to heal hp in the first place. Healing spells are basically on par with what they were in 3.x though 1d8+ability is roughly equivalent to 1d8+CL (max 5) for the 1st level cure, plus you can upcast it. There are Mass...

    Unearthed Arcana New Unearthed Arcana: Psionics!

    You could model them like the Eberron dragonmarked races possibly. Where the dragonmarked races get +1d4 to a couple of skill checks, you could give this race the same to initiative instead. Also give them a racial AC of 10+Dex+Int. Racial bonuses of +1 Dex +1 Int perhaps. Instead of spells...

    Unearthed Arcana New Unearthed Arcana: Psionics!

    I'd almost call them College of Whispers Bards since that is basically all already psychic damage and fits with what they do! Though I've only ever read Dune, none of the follow on series, so my vision of the Bene Gesserit is limited.

    [IC] Evilhalfling's Dark Sun

    Dukkoti quickly put on the armor of the elf he'd killed and secured the man's desert clothing as well to keep the sun off himself. He tied up the quivers and unstrung the bow, readied to move quickly at need. Though he just supervised those who were still slaves as they dumped equipment into...

    Dark Sun 5e, A minimalist conversion. (full) [OC]

    Shouldn't Desert elves have some native resistance to the heat of the desert? I made my save, just wondering. I think DS 2e the elves did have that.

    [IC] Evilhalfling's Dark Sun

    Dukkoti returned to the two bodies of the elven archers, where he'd originally gotten his bow and collected all their water, coins, and quivers. He started to work to strip the armor off of one when the Mul called out for them to assemble. With a sigh and the heat of the sun beating down, he...

    D&D 5E (2014) Crash-Course On The Forgotten Realms

    Waterdeep is ~ 3.8 miles long and 1.5 miles wide, map with scale Baulder's Gate is ~ 1.13 mi wide and ~ 0.78 mi wide on the walled portion. If you include up to the edges of the GF9 5e map, it looks to be ~ 1.32 mi wide by 1.32 mi long So I'd say that Waterdeep is bigger physically and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Blue Dragon Alcoholic?

    3.x Draconomicon said that huge dragons weighed roughly 20,000 lbs. According to this site, it takes ~ 30 "drinks" (shot, 12 oz beer, 4 oz wine) to get a 2,000 lb. creature to a BAC of 0.056, which is still not drunk. A 200 lb. person would be at 0.635 and probably die. That is roughly...

    Yes, though not worded as such as there is no intellectual movements in the FR called the enlightenment or communist theory. I’m not sure the difference in your statement here? :P But seriously, Representative Republics? I can’t think of one off the top of my head in current timelines. It’s...

    D&D General Astral Plane Think Tank

    I totally agree with this... if you're coming back from a time variable plane like the Feywild! For a plane like Astral that is timeless, it doesn't really make sense to me.

    D&D General Astral Plane Think Tank

    I dislike this one because it doesn't make sense. You're not experiencing time, why would it catch up with you?. There are great storylines to be had with that. I like not having to eat while on the plane, and being hungry when you enter the material plane after... 8-9 hours or so makes sense...
