Taking consideration of morale and tactical considerations is good, but there's no one-size-fits-all game mechanical solution that will work equally well for every opponent and situation. I'm definitely in the camp of this being a decision for the DM to make on a case-by-case basis.

I did go with a monthly progression when a few PCs became werepolarbears in an Icewind Dale campaign. I didn't recommend it for this thread because in that instance they were already over 5th level when they were bitten, and were over 10th by the time the later progression kicked in, so its...

And now I'm imagining a captive village of hobbits with all their hobbit-holes being sandwiched behind glass so that their stone giant captors can observe and record all the peculiar and amusing goings-on within them.

Do we know yet whether lycanthropes are looking any different in the 2025 MM? Might be worth seeing if they've done anything different with their immunities, which are the most troublesome aspect of making a PC version.

Seriously? Bar-bear-ian was right there.

Gnolls are fiends not food.

Only in TOS. In TNG helm and navigation is one console, and the other (usually manned by Data) is Operations, which organises most ship functions not covered by Tactical and Engineering. It's closely analaguous to the Science Officer role in TOS, which also doesn't exist in TNG (neither does...

Given that At Attin was making the currency for the Old Republic, and what we know about the New Republic's competency, I'm guessing that the most likely outcome will be a years-long debate/dispute/committee-investigation as to who the money actually belongs to, by the end of which, yes, they'll...

Make it a concentration-based cantrip that lasts a long time (call it an hour, but you can just re-cast it). When you get within a certain range of a trap, say 30 feet, you get a 'pulse' alerting you to its presence, but you gain no information as to its nature or location. You can choose to...

1d6 possible "general natures" of traps: 1. Witty 2. Charming 3. Vicious 4. Morose 5. Lazy 6. Aloof

Karlach is top pick as she's just fun to be around, though I certainly couldn't do her justice portraying her as an NPC.

The barrier jams outgoing transmissions, but it might not block all incoming signals. There could have been a channel set up that wasn't jammed, specifically for receiving secure messages.

A very nice ending to the series. Good to see the New Republic pulling their weight, including some actual production-line B-Wings using the prototype Bladewing's composite-beam lasers. I guess they finally worked the bugs out.

Mismatch between eye colour and speech bubble colour on two of the robed guys, can't remember from previous scenes with them whether that's deliberate.

Yeah, it's kinda convenient that way. I'm currently playing a Descent into Avernus campaign, and have used banishment a couple of times on friendly targets as a means of freeing them from the plane.

So basically, 1. Find a portal to take you to literally any other planar location that isn't dimensionally locked, and then 2. Get someone to cast banishment on you and fail the save.

Plenty of lore has gods being able to create all sorts of unrelated living beings. Empyreans and Angels having to necessarily be the same "species" just because both were created by gods doesn't really track.

Spoken like a commoner. What kind of lord dresses himself?

The great saviour of the last age, who defeated the dread evil that threatened the world and set all to rights. Only a select few, including the PCs, know that this is a facade and this 'saviour' is a tyrant in disguise, and proving it to the world at large would be an extraordinarily difficult...

That would have been my first guess.
