An artificer player pointed this out to me. 1) An artificer can make magic items if they have the schematics for the item. Crafting time is halved. 2) An artificer can make a schematic of an item by studying it, using 1/10th of the gold and materials to create that magic item. 3) Having made a...

I was trying to say that the article uses one of the tropes of Jew-hatred, a trope that is very often deployed with a dogwhistle. To be fair, my assumption was that everyone behind ENSider 460 were just thinking "lets do a fun article where the conspiracy is real". The article is about a group...

So.... well meaning rich people have their efforts at reform stymied by revolutionaries. A theory frequently espoused people who benefit from the most glacial reforms. And the revolutionaries are acting on the orders of Hell itself? The "outside agitators" conspiracy theory has a long...

In the otherwise great Well-Equiped article the armoured corset is described as being like a breastplate plate but imposing disadvantage on acrobatics checks rather than stealth checks. I know i am being pedantic but corsets are not particularly restrictive or uncomfortable. This is a...

¿From Nole Spoor, the villainous owner of an emerald mine?

I'm currently doing coins for xp with two tables in a shared world. PCs can just go to the big city and buy a level's worth of training. A level costs 1 silver piece for every 1xp and 1 day of training for every 100xp. So far the grognard table has been slightly more resistant than the table...

Seconding lichmaster's point With the adept-fighter combo it is the combat maneuvers that fuse well. Fighters get more of them earlier. Adepts bring more exertion points and a higher DC.

ooooooh EDIT. First thought, cool!!!! As above. Second thought, surely you'd have to drop one of the combat maneuvers? But nope, the four used are all covered by adept and berserker. Although you do need to take two levels of berserker to get those combat maneuvers. But the Furious Critical -...

Huh. I guess i saw the video title at some point.

I was wondering how a dragonborn's claws would work with an adept. And then wondered what an adept would look like in heavy armour. And it turns out a lot of their features still work pretty well when grafted on to a fighter base. So, a level one fighter, level three adept. In full plate. I...

Thank you. I did not think of paralyzing poisons. The barding should be easy. The setting is half animist, There are angels / loa / small gods / spirits locii everywhere. The barding comes with the pet in exchange for a mission.

The goblet is an object of the deepest respect. Once per long rest it can be drunk from to bring the drinker into communion with the soul of a departed partner or companion from whom the skull was taken. This gives the drinker the effect of the bless spell. A more powerful version was taken...

One of my tables is all newbies to RPGs. Young adults having great fun riffing off the YA Rangers' Apprentice series. But that means we have three archers and a warlock. And we've just had our second permanent player death. I joke about being a killer DM, but i don't actually try to do it...

Thank you.

Sorry, i couldn't help the alliteration. Twilight-Touched halflings have telepathy as a feature (AG p38). Can a creature they communicate with telepathically respond telepathically? The only rule i could find was about monster languages (MM p 11.), which says that creatures can respond to...

(naughty word naughty word crap) Yep. My eyes went round when i realised what a parade of elephants would be like. And so didn't copypasta the final version. Thanks for the headsup/

I was populating the random encounter table for my current campaign, when i had the idle though "what if i used the squad template for some for some of these?" A pack of hyenas could keep a low level party on their toes. A flock of axe beaks could be a nasty surprise. A lion pride could...

Thanks compa.

Did a5e keep the compel duel spell? I couldn't see it in the spell lists or combat maneuvers. I know a lot of people think it too CRPG but i like giving it to the heroic antagonist or their body guards. "At the knights words the PC feels self loathing and shame as they turn away from the...

Something like that existed IRL. The zhanmadao or "horse chopping saber". It's a light-ish sabre that can be used with two hands. I found them a little while ago when looking for something for an NPC. Zhanmadao - Wikipedia
