    Adventure:A Jaz of all Trades (DM:Luinnar Judge: H.M.Gimlord).

    Sir Exsixten ignores her wails and nods knowingly. HE MUST HAVE BEEN A PYRO-BOVI-NECROPHILIAC THEN. THE GODS ALWAYS PUNISH THAT PEOPLE WHO HAVE SEX WITH FLAMING DEAD CATTLE BY BINDING THE PERPETRATOR'S WIFE AND UNNAMED CHILD TO A SHIP AS GHOSTS. TRAGIC. ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS DO THE MACARENA...

    [Adventure]: Land Ho! FWBTHW (DM:H.M.Gimlord,Judge:Ozymandias79)

    Phoenix hurls up a glowing red shield of flame a split second before Rhagast hits her, deflecting the Minotaur aside and searing him. A tiny phoenix explodes into existence above Rhagast, darting at the beast's head and burning him as a sliver of force darts from her dagger and gashes him. "You...

    Adventure:A Jaz of all Trades (DM:Luinnar Judge: H.M.Gimlord).

    Sir Exsixten regards her solemnly for a moment. FEMALE PERSONAGE, APPARENTLY YOU ARE OUT OF SYNCHRONIZATION WITH MODERN MODES OF FEMININE PRESENTATION VIS-A-VIS MODES OF DRESS AND GENERAL PERSONAL APPEARANCE. PINK LOOKS TERRIBLE ON YOU AND FLANNEL, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN? WHAT ARE YOU...

    Throwing down the Tyranny of the Spellcaster.

    Maybe you can combine all of the OPs options (except limiting power). I propose the following: Each spell is cast at a various casting level, determined at the time of casting. For example, I can choose to cast my Fireball at casting level 5 or level 10. Each spell has a spell level. This is...

    Eclipse Phase: This Mortal Coil

    Fall, Per Varios Casus Bose leaned back in the soft white leather recliner and sipped at his mi tai at the top of his New York penthouse, watching as a hundred-foot tall war machine casually walked through the side of a sky scraper a few blocks down, sending debris crashing into the charred...

    [The One Ring] The Marsh Bell

    Authiel leaps onto a floating log, the impact tilting one end up and lodging the other in the thick mud. She runs up the side and balances atop the raised end, firing two arrows rapidly straight down into the beast that rises from the depths. As she draws another arrow, she looks back briefly...

    [Adventure]: Land Ho! FWBTHW (DM:H.M.Gimlord,Judge:Ozymandias79)

    Phoenix focuses on the minotaur, expression aglow with hatred. "You don't have your ring to escape this time, Rhagast. This ends here." Without looking away from him, she speaks softly to the others. "If we don't kill him and you're the last one alive, kill yourself. You don't want him taking...

    Unique Classes in a Sentence

    Generally my idea was what classes would look like in your ideal world for 5e, cut away from any baggage from previous editions but with anything from previous editions that made them seem cool or unique or fun for you or what you would like them to look like in your ideal 5e. These are things...

    Unique Classes in a Sentence

    Given that D&D is a class based system - probably one of its most defining traits having played many other RPGs - and D&DN will obviously retain this trait, it might be useful to discuss what it is that makes each class shine, it's niche, it's raison d'etre. It's that short description that...

    Eclipse Phase: This Mortal Coil

    Note: I find these questions/statements odd, especially two separate people registering on ENWorld within 3 hours of each other solely to post on this thread. I would not be surprised to see a few other random posts like these from these usernames spread across miscellaneous threads in the near...

    [Adventure]: The Missing Professor (DM: H.M.Gimlord, Looking for a Judge)

    Seraph walks out of the room and give the room a more thorough search, checking any daggers with blue gems in the hilt. (Assuming she didn't find it) She looks at the thief. "So where would you say the dagger is now since it doesn't seem to be here?" Perception: 1d20+12=19, Diplomacy...

    Adventure:A Jaz of all Trades (DM:Luinnar Judge: H.M.Gimlord).

    Sir Exsixten walks over and examines the trunk. AH, A FINE CHOICE. GOOD SOLID TEAK THEY MADE THIS THING OUT OF. LITTLE WATER DAMAGE HERE, BUT ASIDE FROM THAT LOOKS STURDY.

    Eclipse Phase: This Mortal Coil

    Think Tachikoma Alexander's body was on autopilot, effortlessly climbing the ladder on the side of the lift shaft as he finally broke "Old_Muse(Cranky)", searching for any useful information it had stored on Davin Newport and/or Earthwing. "I guess Helios wasn't kidding about this being an...

    [Adventure]: The Missing Professor (DM: H.M.Gimlord, Looking for a Judge)

    Seraph looks around the room briefly for anything that might help, then steps up behind Draglin. "Say what you know of this 'storm dagger' as well. Remember that I am Apoli's Dark Angel and bear the scales of his judgement upon my shoulders, so chose your words carefully." Perception...

    Something Awful leak.

    Even if defenses weren't tied to stats, you could do something to make them non-obvious dump stats. For example: Strength - carrying capacity, Con - hp, Dex - Initiative, Int - bonus skills and languages, Wis - bonus crit damage maybe?, Cha - starting wealth/buy prices/built in Leadership? I...

    Idle Musings: Inverted Interrupts, Focus Fire, and Combat Flow

    Hm... fighters could also have power that automatically disengage allies. For example, if you don't like the idea of marking, you could just have the fighter step in, use "Over Here", and disengage all the allies engaged to monsters he can reach. I like that idea over marking, especially since...
