    D&D 5E (2014) Reflavoring races

    The rules and stat blocks are nothing more than a framework to build whatever flavor you want on to. Races, monsters, spells, classes. Doesn't matter.

    D&D General what would a good orc culture be like?

    I like the idea of using klingons, but with holding Worf as the platonic ideal, not the Klingon Empire. We can throw in a few splashes of romanticized Viking, Mongol, Spartan, Bloodbowl football player. We can agree that all real civilizations have their own black marks against them. We can...

    D&D 5E (2024) The rapier problem

    I've always admired 13th Age's damage by class, but have never implemented it. It would allow you to do the same damage no matter what weapon type you are using...light melee, two handed, ect. Everything else is just flavor. Your swashbucker could be using a rapier, scimitar, cutlass...

    D&D General Finding Stuff in a Bag of Holding

    I always have a found bag of holding already have stuff in them. Some random, some plot hooks planted. Always a torn open bag of glitter that gets all over everything in the bag of holding.

    D&D General The Venn Diagram of D&D and Magic: the Gathering Players

    Passionate player of both. Started playing Magic pretty close to the beginning, and took a multi-decade break from both. When I started teaching my children D&D back during the Next playtest, one of them mentioned Magic and I pulled my dusty box of cards from out of the closet. Been in the deep...

    They were started as a passion project by James Wyatt as a companion to the art books. The positive response led to the Ravnica book.

    D&D 5E (2014) How Are Orcs Different In Your World? (+)

    Orcs once had a large and stable empire on one continent of my World of Eska. Peaceful and benevolent and overflowing with resources. That is, until the elves came and wiped them from the face of the planet.

    D&D 5E (2024) Power Source Spell Lists

    I'm starting to think that the three spell lists are only for the benefit of the Magic Initiate feat.

    D&D 5E (2024) 5.5 Nat 20/CritHit Rule in play

    Off topic of the thread, I'm not sure if this will end up being the case. I'm starting to think that they have these three spell lists only for the sake of the Magic Initiate feat. The fact that only 1st level spells are on these lists is what makes me think that.

    D&D 5E (2024) DM's no longer getting crits on PC's

    I don't think we can judge this until we see what the monsters do get.

    D&D 5E (2024) Inspiration From Nat 20 Will Bog Down The Game

    I like the idea of gaining inspiration on a nat 1 instead. Gaining it on a nat 20 feels like "win more".

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 PHB Background discussion

    I hope BIFTs remain part of backgrounds, because as a DM I'll often assign NPCs a background and roll up their BIFTs to represent their personality.

    D&D 5E (2024) Homebrew and the Origins playtest, how does it affect your rules?

    I tell my players that a die roll doesn't count unless I call for it.

    D&D 5E (2024) Do you think they'll have one final go for psionics?

    I wouldn't be mad if they went with a psionic spell list. I like the idea of psionics, but haven't liked any of the implementations (going back to 1E).
