It was the beginning of the Satanic Panic, ironically. One or more of the alarmed parents was warning other parents and the school about this Devilish game. Well, nothing made it more appealing to us nerdy 9-year olds, so we pooled our allowanced together and bought a copy of the forbidden 1981...

Realizing that the OP is from 8 years ago and therefore unlikely to see this, nevertheless it jogged a memory from my own experience playing a Psionicist in 2e days. I think we were around 7-8 level and facing an 'end-boss' level encounter of a pair of mind-flayers with their umber hulk...

Ultima I on the Apple II was the big game changer for me and my gateway into the world of ttrpgs. When the pandemic hit I grabbed Ultima I thru 5 on GOG and binge played the whole classic series. Another special one for me was the Eamon text rpg series by Donald Brown, which inspired my sense of...

They are in fact in the Adventures in Rokugan book. The book uses the post-MMotM system for all the species (+2 to any, +1 to any for attributes). Their abilities are more geared toward the setting itself (Shadowlands survival), so probably not the best option for a non-Rokugan campaign.

I have another request, if possible. On the NPC sheet, we have sections for Actions, Bonus Actions, Reactions (et al). Would it be possible to put a button (where I've drawn my blue circle) that would post the name and description of these various actions into the chat window?

Thanks for your reply. I think the underbalanced maneuvers tend to jump out at me more, making me wonder if I've missed something. And yeah, if you could juts swap them out for higher degree maneuvers later, that also would mitigate some of the issue, but you're stuck with swapping them out...

So I'm probably about 2 years too late on with this question, but I'll go ahead and ask anyway... In our game, we've noticed that some maneuvers are worded as: "You take the Attack action and make a melee weapon attack, as well as any additional attacks granted by Extra Attack" and others just...

Small request: Could we get the font size on Maneuvers increased? The description text has a nice size, but the "subject" (?) is very small and I think harder to read because of the mismatch*. (* or possibly old man eyes) Thank you!

Mechanics-wise, I'm not sure there's anything that I personally think I like ~better~ about 2e, but as far as settings, lore, campaign materials, and just imaginative writing, I don't think the 2e can be beat. I still reference a lot of my 2E books for my current games, and I've adapted a lot of...

Good question, my gut reaction would be to omit those restrictions, but I'll think on it... I'm not too worried about this player exploiting flying, swimming, etc, but still something to consider. As written, it's a 1-minute ritual with a somatic component, so I think if you were restrained you...

Yes, I think I omitted that from the description. It should be a 3rd level spell. Thanks for all the other insights and suggestions, very helpful in balancing this subclass out!

Thanks for all the input! It was very helpfully. Here's a rough look at what I've come up with. Disclaimer: My group is pretty casual, so I'm not too worried about optimization, and I don't realistically think this game will go past Level 7-8, so I didn't bother to map out higher level...

I appreciate the encouragement, but I don't think I'm a dedicated enough soul to make the pdfs. However, I'm happy to share what I've got and if anyone wants to take this and run with it, they have my blessing.

Haha, yes this was one of my first thoughts! I was even thinking of letting a tiny scout be the equivalent of a ritual casting.

Oh that's an excellent suggestion! Thank you!

Excellent input on the CR's. I kind of threw really fast & loose numbers out. I also think if I were to implement something like this, that each time you Wildshape gives you "X" amount of Temp HP (based on the spell level), but I don't think I would want to have each form use it's own...

So in an upcoming game, one of my players wants to play a Druid inspired by the movie (Honor Among Thieves). I remember seeing some discussion a month or two back where someone proposed using spell slots in place of a class resource in order to Wildshape, and that got me thinking. I think this...

Looking forward to the book announcement of "Tabby's Grimoire of Broken Spell Crafting", naturally after the TM is processed.
