    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Explains 'Canon' In More Detail

    It's also changing between editions. In 2e Orcus, Demogorgon, Yeenoghu and Baphomet were actual deities (and demonlords). Graz'zt however was not

    That's a change to the game rules the class operates under in the current edition. In the lore of the class they always did that.

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Explains 'Canon' In More Detail

    If the characters are not high level enough, they're also not going to stop that ancient dragon over yonder that insinst on eating virgin sacrifices or stop the slavery in Thay or .... Big injustices on a cosmic scale are rarely overcome by heroes that are not on a cosmic scale themselves The...

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Explains 'Canon' In More Detail

    Actually that's very much the exact lore about Bladedancers. You'll find no legends of exploits that tells anything different, certainly not that "and after he dealt the demon a mighty blow he waited 6 seconds to finish it with a spell" The lore always had them weaving their blades and spells...

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Explains 'Canon' In More Detail

    I disagree. For the most part the fiction just did not care about the current game rules. There's few novels inbetween when an author tried to make the events in his novel also fit the current game rules and none of those were better for it (on the contrary). Sometimes the fiction worked some...

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Explains 'Canon' In More Detail

    Is there anything that doesn't? Make it your campaign to storm the city of the dead, overthrow Kelemvor and tear down the wall and see what happens next. By that point the PCs are likely demigods themselves at very least, one of them maybe even the new lord of death, and at that point in a...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Cancels Competition

    They are exploitative if the art in question has value to you. So I can agree that a (semi-)professional artist should stay out of such a contest. Even if they can't see it, they better listen to the wisdom of their peers further down the path who learned this lesson already. I disagree that it...

    Yes, and that's entirely between those willing to agree to this terms and WotC. CAN. YOU. UNDERSTAND??? And technically is "without further consent", because by giving them my consent to use my entry without consent, it's not actually without consent. Agreeing and being content with this...

    Yet not all of the are. The FR wikki isn't fully exclusive to FR. It also contains some stuff from other settings. Elves, gnomes, etc. could probably die during that time. But humans on Faerun could not.

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Explains 'Canon' In More Detail

    How do you define "supposed"? The FR setting if full of evil and unjust things for the individual table to chose from what to feature in their campaign. Only a tiny fraction of all the evil in the world has gotten an official adventure to it's name.

    Just as it would have been betweem them willing to make an entry to the DDB contest with it's stated terms and WotC.

    Yeah *recognition" how droll. How many thousands are they paid in royalties though? I mean their songs are featured in a game making millions in revenue?

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Explains 'Canon' In More Detail

    You are confusion domains and portfolios. Also some of those were just dead at this time or not even connected to Toril. You have a thing about Yutrus and to be fair, those poor sods being shown crushed under a collapsed building or stuck to a torture table and already having received multiple...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Cancels Competition

    Naming a gacha game in combination with "less exploitative" is pure comedy ;) These games exist solely to lay out the flypaper for those weak willed to get stuck and all those who manage to land and take off again are just served as a means to get those poor whales.

    It was open for anybody. I anybody above a certain "level of professionalism" deems this to be detrimental to his chose profession, she's free to refrain from entering it. Let those amateurs who don't do this as any kind of profession have their fun.

    Even the newer guys should probably not enter. Just those who are not artists and never want to be artists and just think the chance of the price is worth creating a one-time entry

    Actually I'd have to re-read that, because I am not sure about it. Could be a 5e retcon, but in the past it was more to masquerade to layman worshippers, not actual divine spellcasters. Because of exactly that reason that he could not grant clercial spells. At max. he may deceive someone who...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Cancels Competition

    Evidence for what? That someone who is not an artist and has no intention to ever become an artist may think that throwing away the rights for this once-in-a-lifetime drawing he made for the contest in exchance for the change to win some price is a fair deal to him? My job doesn't suck. I enjoy...
