I'm seriously tempted to write up a demiplane idea I have floating around. Kinda a weapons lab of some long-dead mage that is beginning to spill into the material plane.

DOWNVOTES ARE BACK TO TWO. PLEASE COPY AND PASTE THIS. Dragon Fear 16 Dwarven Fortitude 20 Fade Away 16 Fey Teleportation 21 Orcish Fury 9 Prodigy 19 Second Chance 6 Squat Nimbleness 14 Wood Elf Magic 21 Edit: I had typoed my Fey Teleportation vote. Uncertain as to posting to let people know...

Okay, let's factor that in and take a look at some highlights of their fails. Justice League, a B+, is doing quite well. Murder on the Orient Express, another B, has made back its budget multiple times already. Star Trek Beyond, an A-, was a flop; it failed to break even. Ferdinand, which is...

I raised my eyebrows on the paladin as well. Pathfinder? I know my group would have the paladin using Smite Evil on the necromancer daily just to test his alignment. I would not warn the necromancer player, but only because I would view it as my duty as a neutral party to keep out of the...

You have a point with Last Jedi. I'm hoping for the same. But if I have to choose, I want the audience to like it. Might mean more people in the hobby.

Cinemascore was ignored by me because of accuracy issues, such as the way it it rated the 2016 Ghostbusters movie; a rating of B, which does not match the movie's office box performance. Despite their more scientific method, I generally find them not accurate to actual performance on too many...

Your premise is flawed. It seems to confuse "critically panned" with "bad movie." It also implies the equally flawed premise that "critically loved" means "good movie." There is a lot of overlap in both sets of concepts, but they do not always track with each other. For example check out the...

I would be careful about using real-world biology to justify it. For the DnD world, magic not only exists but is an inherent part of biology for quite a few species (including humans, to a degree). If a dragon or roc could fly so easily, why can't a bird person? If anyone asks for an...

I'm optimistic about this movie, to a degree. It can't be as soul-crushingly, mind-numbingly, body-wastingly terrible as it would be if Uwe Boll were directing it. Now, if Michael Bay directed it, then it would resemble some of my group's campaigns.

My review: Organization The organization of the product up until the New Rules Material section is pretty good. There are a few minor problems, as noted by others, but nothing that isn't a quirk or minor irritation. Really, you could leave most of it alone. The New Rules Material section...

I would say a healing economy is nearly impossible to properly handle, given the way the setting is set up. A lot of the focus in the original post is on clerics, which totally ignores the fact there are four other healing classes in the game. Bards can cast Cure Wounds and Regenerate, druids...

Taking a more in-depth look... Compare the wording for Book of Ancient Secrets on page 110 to the wording of Copying a Spell into the Book on page 114. The second entry makes a specific case of stating that the spell must be deciphered first, while the first entry does not. It is an area where...

I would go with Charlaquin's idea. Maybe mix in the Aarokocra limitation too until they hit a higher level.

After as many Dark Souls cosplays as I've seen, I could imagine someone in full plate using Dodge not to hunker down behind a shield, but to drop down and roll in a circle around the enemy. In that case, the disadvantage comes from trying to hit someone rolling in a circle around you. That would...

Look at page 7 of the PHB, under the section titled "Specific Beats General." Under that section, I would rule the warlock can copy it.

The Sleigh of Slaying Said to be created by an ancient gift-giving mage who was slain by devils, this subtly cursed sleigh forces the drivers to make a DC 20 Wisdom save to avoid running over any evil being in front of them. Any being run over by the sleigh takes 10d6 points of damage from the...

Happy holidays all! I leave you with this inspiring music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t039p6xqutU

My only homebrew setting is Earth, only magic has come back and a lot of magical races have invaded. People are a lot less fond of celestial beings in the setting, since the constant fighting between celestial and demonic armies is what trashed half the cities. The fey invasion and people...

Happy International Family Fight Club Day!

A couple of times. Once because they decided to use it entirely for their views on how the world really should be, and it was not something I could describe here without sickening people.
