What if all the players want to play all the same race?

Internalize this! This is one of the most important things to do when running a game. Don't waste the time making rolls for things that you can just say Yes or No to!

I haven't read the 5e books, but if they say this, then I am inclined to agree with you. It specifically states that these "exotic" races are truly unique and don't feature in every D&D world. I would be quite likely to point out these sections to a player that demanded that they be allowed to...

I agree! I have found in my own personal experience that the more a player demands to play some strange race as a PC the more likely the PC is going to be a shallow stereotype. The best part though is when the player of said "unique" character then goes on to continuously claim that their...

This is a fantastic question for players to ask before formulating a character concept! This could be avoided by having a Session Zero wherein the actual premise of the campaign is discussed before the player begins formulating a character concept. It would depend heavily on the compromise...

Not my work.

My niece started taking Tae Kwon Do when she was eight and about three feet tall, she's a very small kid. She might not hit super hard but she can still kick with a fair amount of force, she breaks the black belt level boards with little effort. In addition, when she has the big kitchen knife...

Spell focus is a feat? A 5e thing I guess. Anyway, if it is a feat that allows you to ignore material components then that's the point of taking it right? So then you can ignore the material component part of the requirements of the spell. Without it you would need to have those components, thus...

Yes. What's the point of having spells have material components if you are just going to ignore said material components.

Nope. D&D, with its whole alignment thing, means any evil game for me is a hard pass. For me D&D has always been a game of good vs. evil, with the players firmly opposed to the evil part. They are supposed to be heroes saving the helpless villagers or rescuing the prince from the clutches of an...

If I was the DM and the group said "lets us play X or else" I would simply not run the game. If one of the other players wanted to DM in my place I would stick around to be a player in whatever game they want to run. If not I would go find new players. As DM I am not a clown there to put on a...

Tough luck for the player I guess.
