    Which game books most inspire the "sense of wonder" in you?

    I have the updated version of this book in my RPG collection. Arcana Evolved. :) If you wanted to role-play in a PF1 Asian-like setting, there is Heroes of the Jade Oath by Rite Publishing. It borrows a couple of races from Arcana Evolved (the giants, the Faen, and the Verrik, for example) and...

    What Brought You to EN World Today?

    Two out of three, ain't bad. ;) Roll for a surprise initiative. I am reminded of that scene from the Star Wars: Rebels' episode Entanglement when Zeb sees another squad of stormtroopers heading toward him. He smiles, activates his weapon and says 'Over here..." :p

    What magic system that uses some form of power points (e.g. casting spell x costs 3 points) is your favorite?

    The Elementalist class from Purple Martin Games' Manual of Adventurous Resources: Complete for Level Up uses spell points for its' spellcasting feature. The class uses spell points instead of spell slots because of the way it channels raw elemental energy. An Elementalist's power is raw and...

    What makes a TTRPG purchase "worth it" to you?

    It was not my intent to chap anyone's ass about what I saw on The Trove. Let alone, yours. 😟 I wasn't aware that it was a pirate site at the time. What I saw back then was a means to look at some PF1 material before I went out and actually bought it from Paizo.com.

    D&D General Which 3.0/3.5 Prestige classes would make good 5e subclasses? (+)

    I wonder how much of the Eldritch Knight subclass would need to be reskinned to make a 5e Wilderness Warrior.

    What makes a TTRPG purchase "worth it" to you?

    6. When the designers of the TTRPG show off bits and pieces of their latest project to their intended audience. Sometimes it's easier to purchase a TTRPG product when its' designers show off bits and pieces of their project in a news article. You get to learn what ideas are going to be...

    D&D General Languages suck in D&D.

    Language ought to involve some crunch in both 5e and 5e-adjacent RPGs. :) Have it where speaking, writing and understanding a language involves advantage, disadvantage, expertise and proficiency.

    D&D General Languages suck in D&D.

    More like one language and dozens of regional dialects TBH. :p So, what do you want the rest of us to do when it comes to language use in D&D?

    D&D General Languages suck in D&D.

    Especially when one language borrows words from one or more other languages over a given period of time. In D&D, Common is the Trade Tongue spoken by most of the inhabitants of a given world. Like English in RL, it probably has words from quite a number of races in it. Human, Elvish, Dwarvish...

    D&D General Languages suck in D&D.

    How would the reverse be better for D&D? Every world having elves who don't speak the same exact way. It would certainly lead to some interesting role-playing. You could have two elven characters from two different elven cultures trying to understand each other. Presumably with a Linguistics...
