    D&D 5E (2014) Design Thread - "What makes a Knight?"

    Having some numbers can be an helpful guideline for the DM, and you already explain in the sidebar that the quests in the table are just example, which is good. In fact, the only numbers that seem a bit out of whack are for the "Hold back the dark" quest. The rest is fine. Then Vow of Mercy and...

    WotC WotC is hiring Senior Manager for Diversity, equity and inclusion.

    I was indeed thinking about an adult, experienced Carlton! Anyway, I already dropped the metaphor and explained my main point in the post I linked above:

    D&D 5E (2014) Design Thread - "What makes a Knight?"

    Very interesting design. Some of the vows seem pretty easy to trigger reliably (vow of mercy in particular) while vow on nobility is the opposite (you have to successfully use challenge twice, spending two points, for the chance of gaining back one point?). The idea of questing is nice, the...

    WotC WotC is hiring Senior Manager for Diversity, equity and inclusion.

    To be precise, when I said all else being equal, I was talking about skills and competence. Personal political ideology never crossed my mind, first because I didn’t even recall Carlton’s, and second because personal politics shouldn’t normally matter in a job interview.

    WotC WotC is hiring Senior Manager for Diversity, equity and inclusion.

    I really tried not to sweat the details with the all else being equal clause, but really, you can just assume, for instance, that the English guy has lived some 10 years in Japan in the past, but has also lived and worked in the US for the last 10 years. The point of my example: the ability to...

    WotC WotC is hiring Senior Manager for Diversity, equity and inclusion.

    As Frogreaver pointed out, no differences between the two candidates in terms of competence and skills. Just differences in background. An upper class American black person from a rich, privileged family, that has lived all of his life in wealthy part of the country, versus a middle class white...

    WotC WotC is hiring Senior Manager for Diversity, equity and inclusion.

    Ok. Assume those 2 are the best candidates, skill wise and experience wise. Who’s your pick?

    WotC WotC is hiring Senior Manager for Diversity, equity and inclusion.

    Question: with everything else being equal, who would be a better candidate for the position: a white English man that has lived in Japan for 10+ years Carlton Banks from the the fresh prince of Belair, a black person What I’m clearly implying with this question: skills can be tied to one’s...

    D&D 5E (2014) Elf-Orc Grugach

    Not sure I like the idea. Grugach are an established elven subrace. If we want to explore the idea of an half elf-half orc race, we should just give it a fully new name and concept.

    Mana, Shamans, and the Cultural Misappropriation behind Fantasy Terms

    Tbh, I don't think I'll stick around this thread much. I've said my piece, I explained why I disagree with the OP, I really don't have much to add beyond that. Unless people start responding to me directly, of course.

    Browser. Should I use the app? I can certainly give it a shot.

    Mana, Shamans, and the Cultural Misappropriation behind Fantasy Terms

    I feel like we're delving deep into manufactured outrage territory here. I mean, I disagreed with a lot of what was recently said about orcs, drow, and oriental adventures, but I could at least see the other side's position and a potential compromise that could be reached. Offense by proxy...

    Malicious add pop-up while visiting the site

    Only on mobile apparently. Today I'm doing a backup and full reset of the device. If that solves the problem, it must be some kind of weird malware that only activates on Enworld somehow :ROFLMAO:

    Malicious add pop-up while visiting the site

    Allright, I'll try to solve any potential issue on my mobile device's end. Just a couple more pieces of info: this problem seems to happen to me only while using Enworld. I've tried several other forums, mainstream sites, news sites and more. Only getting the problem here, and quite reliably...

    It keeps happening. This is hampering my ability to browse the site from mobile. The ad tries to send me to scam sites such as luckymobilevisitors.club

    Malicious add pop-up while visiting the site

    It happened 3 times today. While visiting the forums on mobile, I got one of those "congratulations! You won something!" ads, with a pop up blocking my entire screen, redirecting me to a scam site if I touched the pop up in any way. Never happened to me on Enworld before, so I thought I'd let...

    Unearthed Arcana UA feats, are they trying to allow people to not have to multiclass to get class abilities?

    I like that they’re trying to give us some 4e style multiclassing. Now, if only they could give us 4e hybrids (or dual classing, I believe 2e called it).
