    D&D General How often are your stories on a clock?

    I prefer to use organic interruptions to discourage overly restful PCs rather than ticking clocks. By this, I might use random encounters, noises, bad dreams, or dangerous environments to keep the adventure moving. Where I have used a ticking clock, I usually have a notecard where I tick down...

    Level Up (A5E) Handbook of Heritages: Now Available for Sale!

    Most of these heritages were created, posted, and tweaked on these boards back when LevelUp was still in playtest phase, so long before PJ's point-buy toolkit was made available. I imagine the Heritage Handbook was deep in the editing proof-reading stages by that point. If boredom strikes...

    What IP would you like to see as an RPG?

    One of us... one of us... So I found they tend to work best as one-shots or mini-campaigns, usually with a Destroy All Monsters type of theme. I have the players control the human investigators trying to solve the macguffin, which triggers different monster attacks... which I also let the...

    What IP would you like to see as an RPG?

    Godzilla + the whole Tohoverse (Heck throw in Monsterverse too). It'd probably be a mess to get the licensing... and then even if you did, I think only me and 2 others would want to play it :p

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    @paulvenner Thanks for your continued support on the sheet. Just a bug report and a few feature questions: Bug: We're still having problems with the Initiative die roll button with Dexterity (I ended up making a generic roll20 macro for doing initiative as a workaround). Are there still plans...

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    I haven't had this happen personally to me and I've run a few sessions now with the sheet. The only time I was experiencing stats vanishing is if I was entering in monster stats too quickly and Tab-scrolling to the next one. It tends to like a moment to run its modifier calculations before you...

    Level Up (A5E) Backgrounds Check

    Thanks for the thoughtful responses! I'm planning on trying a A5E take on Witchlight, which has some very module-specific backgrounds. Also I've been watching the Dragonlance playtests and what they've been doing with backgrounds, so it got me thinking.

    Level Up (A5E) Backgrounds Check

    So I know that officially, if you're mixing race/heritage creation elements of A5E and O5e, you more or less want to do all of 1 or all of the other (at least when it comes to heritages/cultures/backgrounds vs race/backgrounds). However, has anyone tried using an A5E heritage/culture with an...

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    One shortcut is opening the monster on the AE5 tools and doing a lot of copy/paste. Saves some time!

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    I'm using it. Yeah, I've been entering the monsters by hand as I need them. I can get some stats to come over from a vanilla 5e game when it comes to player-character sheets*, but monsters don't seem to match up. I'm not sure there's a way around it unless they were to one day release a...

    What's your attitude towards PVP?

    Allowable in special one-shots or settings, but I only allow it under very controlled circumstances. The last time I saw it played in a long-running D&D campaign the bad feelings continued off the table and became very personal. It not only ended up breaking the years-long gaming group but it...

    I can also confirm it's not working for me either. The last note I see from Paul on Initiative is from the end of November where he notes "still working on this".
