    D&D 5E (2014) Bugbear Zombies

    (LMoP-spoiler in the first paragraph!) As my players emptied Wave Echo Cave, but didn't finish the dungeon all the way through, I need to restock it. (The spectator and the wraith along with the skeletons remained.) So I decided that the destroyed ghouls and zombies attracted some gricks from...

    The 'Wonderland'-Inspired Faces of the RAGE OF DEMONS

    NICE! Good start for this storyline!!

    [UPDATED] RAGE OF DEMONS! New D&D Storyline Features Drizzt, Underdark, & Demon Lords!

    The general theme of this storyline is verrry much my cup of tea!!! ... although I would've preferred other demon lords. Linking it to Drizzt is not exactly what I would've wished for, but he surely is an iconic D&D- and Realms-character. I liked the first couple of novels I read back in the...

    D&D 5E (2014) What separates a sandbox adventure from an AP?

    Thank you 77IM! We play next saturday and the part is very close to Wave Eco Cave at the Place of the Unicorn to lift a curse from the wizard who has been bitten by a wererat prostitute in the Moonstone Mask back in Neverwinter. There will be 4-5 players (only the fighter is lvl 4). We will see...

    D&D 5E (2014) What separates a sandbox adventure from an AP?

    I know this not exactly OT, but: Running LMoP for my group I planned to switch to Episode 5 of HotDQ. Now Princes of the Apocalypse looks really interesting, as we enjoy the sandboxy style of the Starter Set-Adventure immensely. Coming from Pathfinder (APs and RPG) the change of campaign...

    D&D 5E (2014) Rewards of the Factions

    Yes, but we haven't seen a Campaign Setting or something similar for the Realms yet and I think a harper pin is rather Realms specific. Maybe there are different pins? One for each rank within the faction. Perhaps just the first one is mundane and you get a new one when you level up. Or your...

    D&D 5E (2014) Rewards of the Factions

    I don't want to derail my own thread, but when do you give your harpers their harper pin? IIRC the pin was a magic item in older editions, how do you handle this badge in 5E? (Just asking because one my harper players wrote the last session log. :D)

    D&D 5E (2014) Rewards of the Factions

    That would be my take on factions as well, but as mentioned above I have out of game reasons for this measure and I don't want to make roleplaying too "rules heavy".

    D&D 5E (2014) Rewards of the Factions

    It may seem so, yes. But I really want to reward helpful players (in game) and they should get the feeling joining a faction is advantageous. speaking of it, to me mere inspiration wasn't strong enough here.

    D&D 5E (2014) Rewards of the Factions

    I know, I know. :( But I got the feeling 5E is all about "saying yes" (hence a drow!) and it works pretty good to be honest. To give you a complete picture: there WAS another wood elf druid and there IS a human wizard.

    D&D 5E (2014) Rewards of the Factions

    Hey there! (My first post on these lovely boards!) I am running LMoP for my group and plan to switch to Episode 5 of HotDQ. Up till now I wrote the play session reports IC. The authors were the five NPCs of the five factions from LMoP, to introduce the players to the factions and thinking of...
