I'm just excited for Hemsworth butt

You've ruined my dreams of visiting Japan 😭

Would you be opposed to the Madness rules found in the DMG, which would have your character say, think, or attempt things outside of the player's idea but is also nonmagical? In fact, one madness effect could potentially lead the player to answer questions regardless of characterization.

Perhaps I wasn't clear that that would be my intention. I'd basically say "The fiend is causing psychological torture to you. To prevent yourself from saying anything, you must make a DC13 constitution check or you speak involuntarily. You are free to say whatever if you fail, but you must say...

Hmm...I appreciate the elaboration of your personal DM style, but let me steer the question in a different direction with an example and perspective-shift. Imagine you're playing a game and you've been captured by a fiend. The fiend is under oath that they cannot kill any humanoids, but they...

I suppose it depends on perspective. The reason why you have players roll for deception isn't that something is compelling them to be conspicuous, it's that they have a chance of involuntarily messing up somehow and they are putting in efforts to seem genuine. If you're perspective is that the...

Guys, you're arguing wrong...

I feel like they're setting up this strange as the new Strange Supreme and will have them be a villain for the next phase. Right now, he's set up to be the villain that will end up trying to right his own wrongs at the very end, imo.

As opposed to other restraunts that try to imitate the chicken sandwhich? It would be the somewhat fruitful attempt to keep the raw chicken from intermingling with everything you immediately put in your mouth. As opposed to your home-cooking? You probably season your chicken while they mix the...

But where are you going to experience discussions about the homoerotic tendencies of cartoon characters where someone in the comments inexplicably has a high-quality artwork displaying those tendencies with viscerally realistic genitalia of the fantasy beast they represent. I'm not scarred...

It must have been comic relief because I was laughing the entire time during that scene. Movie magic, literally, never has real consequences, especially in this movie. When anyone can do anything all of the time, but only sometimes, your suspension of disbelief reaches a limit.

What's the point in bots spamming weird posts in different languages?

My sister said she stayed up at night and kept a nightlight on after watching it. My sister is a lawyer lol

Funnily enough, this is what people also say when they go to a hotel in Texas and open the Bible on the nightstand. (This isn't a joke at anyone's expense. Just a one-off aside. Please don't respond in earnest. I'll remove if this stirs any trouble).

Balance and Fun is multifaceted. There's too much to have any general say about what should and shouldn't be appropriate. Some people dislike close-knit balance while others enjoy it. What's important isn't what balance comes pre-packaged into the game, with all its assumptions. It's what you...

"Torture" might be a strong word for it. It's more like a possible batman/vigilante interrogation scenario. Less about inflicting pain or disfiguring the PC's, but more about inciting fear into their characters. Most players, imx, would simply refuse to give info once it's established there...

How does it sound to use Charisma to prevent giving out information during an interrogation/torture sequence involving the characters as the subject of torture? Most players would simply refuse to give information because they don't feel the pressure of giving the information out without death...

Personally not a fan of making the game harder just for the sake of making it interesting by nerfing player-facing mechanics. It can seem like the DM just wants to make the game harder. However, I do like the concept itself. If I considered a lateral change in balancing, I'd say that giving an...

This is by far the best solution, imo. People really don't like the feeling of DM fiat in theory, but when you're actually playing and you find that one spellbook with a spell you wanted to find, it's less "I should have had this already" and more "this is awesome." Imagine how elated a player...

Well I'm not saying that it would be balanced with only level 1 spells or cantrips. I'm saying that as long as casters have more utility options, it won't matter how trivial they are. Let's assume that spellcasters only get these 1st-level spells. They get undercut in combat, but they still...
