    D&D General good dungeons to populate a sandbox setting?

    N5 Under Illefarn contains a series of short adventures, one amongst with lizardmen risin to arms in a nearby marsh. There's also a longer dungeon crawl with orcs and bandits. It's for 1E, we played it in 3.x and had a great time. Just replacing Daggerford with Saltmarsh should do the trick.

    D&D 5E (2014) Time for Non Forgotten Realms Adventure Paths?

    Sounds like it. Would be interested in hearing about how you mash up the storylines - what gets ejected and what stays?

    D&D 5E (2014) From M. T. Black and Ed Greenwood “Darkhold: Secrets of the Zhentarim" is coming in August!

    Would be a new way to get Zhent ruins, dragons are so last editions.

    D&D 5E (2014) Rename the Monster Manual

    Why would you exclude some of the elf subraces?

    D&D 5E (2014) Time for Non Forgotten Realms Adventure Paths?

    I think Baldur'sGate is actually harder to replace than many of the other cities from the APs. Not because of Baldur's Gate itself, but because of Elturel. You need that city and especially the Companion. The Companion is the reason I'm not using Neverwinter and Helm's Hold, which would have...

    D&D 5E (2014) Orcus vs Raven Queen: The saga

    Not familiar with MtG. With ur-dragon I mean the mother of dragons, the first. Like the One from M & BECMI. But should there not be a Bahamut as well (dislike that name, can't decide on another)?

    D&D 5E (2014) Orcus vs Raven Queen: The saga

    I dislike Tiamat as a god, preferring her to be the ur-dragon instead (as powerful as a god in some ways, yes)

    D&D 5E (2014) Orcus vs Raven Queen: The saga

    Except when the official lore makes it a chore to adapt things to your own table and you don't have the time/inclination to go full homebrew.

    D&D 5E (2014) Orcus vs Raven Queen: The saga

    It's not an avatar. Bahamut is a greater god in 4e (edit: if there's even such a distinction in 4e,ref Dave's post below). And you can say what you want reg. lore, the official stats are what they are.

    AD&D 1E Greyhawk Map - My 1980 Darlene inspired recreation!

    They are not by Darlene, but by Robert Lazzaretti who also did the 1e Golarion map.

    D&D General A Gruumsh Of A Different Type

    They don't need a patron to worship as such, but who do they pray to then, if the "barbarian God" is taken, being the patron of their blood enemies?

    D&D General A Gruumsh Of A Different Type

    I can see that. But I like Corellon as patron of elves, Moradin as patron of dwarves etc. Becomes a bit stretched if Gruumsh then is 'viewed as patron by orcs'. Hmmm..

    D&D General A Gruumsh Of A Different Type

    Nah. You're right. He never listens or cares anyway!

    D&D General A Gruumsh Of A Different Type

    Good idea. Thinking a bit more about it, I think one of my problems is, who is then the barbarians' patron? Also Gruumsh?

    D&D General A Gruumsh Of A Different Type

    Minor thread resurrection. Say I wanted Gruumsh to be worshipped by both orcs and barbarians and such (fury, bloodshed, battle, perseverance). But, I still want Gruumsh to be patron of orcs. And orcs and the barbarians are mortal enemies (think Uthgart from FR). How would you go about this? How...

    D&D 5E (2014) Orion Black No Longer a D&D Designer [UPDATED!]

    Where should this discussion be had. Without agreeing to the opinion of the moderated post, it does seem to me that he gets moderated in retrospective. The banned words come from a finite list, and he actually didn't use any of them.

    D&D 5E (2014) Should D&D 5e have Epic Levels?

    So a whole new slew of levels and powers, mostly disconnected from the previous game?
