    D&D 5E (2024) (+) New Edition Changes for Inclusivity (discuss possibilities)

    There are some furries that really like the lycanthrope idea, but for most ( myself included ) it's kinda worst than no option at all. There are two core ideas to the archetype of Lycanthropes and Shifters. The first is a duality of mind/soul. They're not a singular being, they're an sentient...

    D&D 5E (2024) (+) New Edition Changes for Inclusivity (discuss possibilities)

    The answer of course, is the point where WotC sees more profit coming in than it would cost them to develop it. It would be nice for them to do it out of the goodness of their heart, and maybe that can factor in when deciding where the line is, but in the end WotC is most concerned with money...

    D&D 5E (2024) (+) New Edition Changes for Inclusivity (discuss possibilities)

    You may not be aware of it, but there are two things in that statement that are offensive. First you group all furries into a narrow stereotype ( fursuiters ), and then dismiss their concerns as frivolous and unimportant. I don't blame you, there are very few furries actually talking to people...

    D&D 5E (2024) (+) New Edition Changes for Inclusivity (discuss possibilities)

    How your ability scores interact with your class abilities definitely affect inclusivity. For instance, I'm a furry and every character I'd make would be a Tabaxi. Tabaxi's come with a +2 to Dex and a +1 to cha. If I wanted to play a Barbarian my abilities don't line up at all. I could still...

    D&D 5E (2024) (+) New Edition Changes for Inclusivity (discuss possibilities)

    I think that the str and dex based fighting styles point to the underlining problem. What about an Int based one? or a Cha one based on trickery? What about the amazing all rounder that's stronger than the fast guy, faster than the strong guy, more intelligent than the natural athlete, and so...

    D&D 5E (2024) (+) New Edition Changes for Inclusivity (discuss possibilities)

    The default setting - Make a new one that has only the most basic information needed to get started telling stories, and leaves a lot of room to make it your own. This new setting would carry forward a lot of the basic ideas that have shown up in various settings over the years, but nothing is...

    D&D 4E Are powers samey?

    I've been doing my best to look at this from all sides for a while. That's why I took so long to start replying to this thread. This is the best I can come up with. There are a number of ways that the writing structure can make powers feel similar to each other. The fact that every power is...

    D&D 4E Are powers samey?

    The first two powers definitely have some similarity, as they're both skirmisher abilities. They're still deferent in execution though. The first can only be used before the attack, meaning it has to be used aggressively to attack an opponent. It also has a shift of two which allows it to...

    D&D 4E [4E] Which classes would you prefer to see in a clone

    Any rule set that wants to feal DnDish needs to have the Fighter, Cleric, Rogue, and Wizard. Those are the corner-stone classes of DnD, and they represent the most basic implementation of the Defender, Leader, Striker, and Controller concepts. Personally the Fighter and Cleric are a little...
