    D&D 5E (2024) Favourite quirky detail from the new Monster Manual

    We had debate in another thread about that. And it works for a mastiff, cause like a fellow poster said "we know about dogs". But what about the creatures that we dont know about? Does the "flying carnivorous squirrel"* have a +5 Perception cause of hearing? Smell? Eagle Eyes? Intuition...

    D&D 5E (2024) Favourite quirky detail from the new Monster Manual

    I love the 5' fly speed for the owlbear. But they put this in because its fun and cool, and took away Keen Senses from dogs. The dissonance is reverberating.

    D&D 5E (2014) 4E Cosmology

    Not sure of source, and not enough time to look through mountain of dnd books, but mind flayers escaping extinction in the future by returning to the past has been around a while. I "think" its also a bit of lore that they created the gith in the past that end up rebelling in the future...

    Evil Drow Statblocks to Return in Forgotten Realms Rulebooks Later This Year

    In a way, yes. However I look at alt timeline worlds as transient, things eventually flow back into the main timeline (from a cosmic perspective). But its not "implementing a multiverse" in that I dont play/think of it that way. I plan the universe etc. Then if I need an alt world for one...

    Evil Drow Statblocks to Return in Forgotten Realms Rulebooks Later This Year

    Yeah, I have one "universe" full of galaxies and star systems and worlds with varying degrees of magic, all coexisting. Then I have the "alt timeline" worlds that are "what if" scenarios and home campaign variations.

    Evil Drow Statblocks to Return in Forgotten Realms Rulebooks Later This Year

    Once again we do something similar. My elves (Alfar) start as standard. Then you had a "corruption" event where a large portion of the elven populace turned away from the Light, and became demon worshippers. (Lolth is "merely" a demon). These elves are called the Druas (drew-ahz), or more...

    Evil Drow Statblocks to Return in Forgotten Realms Rulebooks Later This Year

    I think its because we can add salt and pepper to taste. Some of the older stat blocks had abilties that I had to strike out. So six in one hand and a half dozen in the other I guess.

    D&D 5E (2014) 4E Cosmology

    I can see if Abeir was in another dimension and it "came back". But how would being its own planet in a separate orbit make coming back possible?

    Critical Role To Wrap Up Third Campaign, New Exandria Unlimited Miniseries Announced

    They played like many normal tables I've been around, just like normal players, I loved that. And that they were donating to their charity (libraries, reading?).

    Critical Role To Wrap Up Third Campaign, New Exandria Unlimited Miniseries Announced

    Yeah, GURPS and HERO, while I have fond memories, and not the RP games people want these days (IMO).

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 2024, Phantasmal Force and Metamagic Interactions

    When they see their friend fighting nothing (if theres more than one monster) I also compare passive investigation to the spell dc.

    D&D 5E (2024) Githzerai Psion? Thri-kreen Psion? Where's My Psion?

    Earlier in the thread I mentioned using sorcerer (spell point (sp) no components (more or less) as the chassis for psionics. @Maxperson said that wasnt suitable, and that psionics needed its own class. And I agree with that Max. But I cant wait for WotC, psionics has been a big part of my...
