Counterpoint: I think full damage type immunity all the time would be fine. There's a few monsters that get the screw pretty hard in this situation, but not too many to really make it problematic, in my opinion. Go ahead and take that lava bath, buddy -- you've earned it. Cheers, Roger

I'd probably allow this. Spend your Inspiration, narrate how you saved this villager's life. You want to make it prayer, sure, fine. What, you don't have any Inspiration? Awww, too bad, they're dead -- all because you couldn't be bothered to roleplay your Flaw. Next time be greedier or...

I cobbled something together for my pregens file; feel free to abuse it as you see fit. E.G.: Diesa Torunn, Dwarf (Mountain) Fighter (Defense); S20 D14 C18 I14 W15 C15; 14 hp; Animal Handling, Athletics, Intimidation, Perception; Dice, Vehicles (Land); Common, Dwarvish; chain mail, shield...

Hmmm. I'd probably give the enemies the stunned condition for a round, then have them roll initiative and proceed. Cheers, Roger

Auto-natural-20 might be good enough if I were inclined to renovate.

Maybe they duel with lit torches. Whenever you can smell burnt hair, you know the werewolves have been scrapping again.

Hmmm I'd probably rule that the spell fails and everyone knows, more or less. The target knows something has happened; whether or not they ascribe it to magic or to something else is up to their own experiences and brainpower. Possibly not quite as much fun as leaving it all mysterious, but it...

Dang, I would play the heck out of a campaign based on the premise that the PCs are in possession of illegal knowledge. I'd better run off and write that up; thanks for the idea. Cheers, Roger

This guy knows! (I could rant about the differences between a typeface and a font, but instead, just enjoy that site.) Cheers, Roger

Whenever I start feeling like the 5E monsters could use a hot beef injection, I consider the jackalwere. That CR 1/2 dude can solo an unprepared party without breaking a sweat. Cheers, Roger

I like them in the sense of power blocs. So ye olde average towne might have: -- the nobility, being the 'legitimate' rulers -- the guilds, probably treated as a monolithic bloc unless there's something fancy going on, being the dudes with all the serious gold -- organized crime...

It's the best part! For the DM, anyway.

For the sake of completeness, let us not forget the famed githyanki silver swords. So great, those things.

Point-buy already sort-of works like this, insofar as there's a finite set of valid arrays. I crunched them all out an edition or two ago; it's not too hard to pull off. Cheers, Roger

Neat. Not sure if these were available before, but the document references the five faction graphics in SVG format: http://dnd.wizards.com/sites/default/files/media/images/faction_banner_harpers.svg...

Check it out I've got +3 fists.

No, not really. Elves don't seem like the sort of creatures that sit around wondering which weapon is optimal. They're more likely to pick whatever doesn't clash with their outfit. Your realms may vary.

I am in favour of this development, for obvious reasons.

Sure. It's not quite Head-of-Vecna levels of fun, but it still sounds pretty darn fun. (Edit) Upon further review, what I'd probably do is allow the person to roll twice on the Lingering Injury table and select which injury they'd like. They can keep trying as much as they like, or until...

Death has been the most common around my table, but maybe I've got really incompetent players.
