Love it mostly as is, but that's because I think the dragon type should be the choice of the player and the name changed to just "dragon knight". Who knows, they might have some text box with how to adapt to other settings. I think it would fit well in dragonlance, plenty of knights that rode...

QI mentions the Indiana Jones awards.

I've used animal lords in a game before (my own, not the dnd versions) and had them appear as perfect examples of their kind with some crazy runic patterns on their fur. I think the images I used for inspiration were from magic the gathering.

For gem dragons, sure, but if I was making this subclass for FR, I'd remove the specific dragon type, and change the name to dragon knight and tie it to the cult of the dragon. To me it makes more sense for this to be tied to the cult rather than the purple dragon knights. Also, what's up with...

What I find wierd with the PDK (or any pet class with this ability) is the power of life and death they have over their pet. It dies, and the knight can bring it back to life with an easy ritual (or just a touch). I understand it mechanically, it'sa chunk of the PDK's power budget but it gets a...

Yep, the elven chain wearing bladesinger is the concept that sticks in my head. I'd probably house rule it if it came up.

Had a quick look through and like others I'm not too keen on the purple dragon knight either. As a subclass, I think it's fine and I could see it being easily adapted to different orders of dragon riding knights, but as the class for the purple dragon knights, it just doesn't fit the history of...

I'd be keen to have a read of those rules, would you have a pdf that you would be fine linking?

I had netflix and disney+, stopped both when I was in the process of buying an apartment and haven't resubbed. Tvnz on demand has some decent stuff like others have mentioned. I often watch it on my PC and don't have to worry about ads due to adblockers.

Oh nice, I'll check that out and see if it works down here in nz

I've also recently installed the libby app and hooked into my local library, it's a lot better than I thought it would be. I have some dragonlance novels that I intend to read at some point soon.

I had to check some of his other art to make sure the signature was the same, but yes, yes it is. I don't think I ever realised. I quite like his artwork.

Fully agree. After looking at OSE I went back and had a look at the original B/X presentation and, while not horrendous, is definitely not as well laid out.

Sort of a moot point since I'm not planning on buying 5.5, but I'm also in the camp where I prefer related groups of monsters to be grouped together. If I'm doing an adventure where I'm running a lot of devils I want to be able to find them quickly and I find it more convenient for their entries...

Yep, a lot of world building is the pet project of the DM. I think the only planes my players have only interacted with were the shadowfell and feywild, and their exact layout in the grand scheme of things didn't really matter.

I've been flipping through my old 3e books and saw this image of Mephistopheles, it's one of my favourite images of him as I find it is the exemplar for the scheming devil archetype.

Out of interest, I know some people have already mentioned it, but what cosmology (if any) are people using in their home games? Mine is fairly simple and mirrors 4e in a lot of ways: At the top is Godsheim, the home of the gods and the various celestials. Below them is the material plane...

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I'll likely just use orcs and goblins and various NPCs as is in most cases, but when I need a gnoll fire brand (from my homebrew setting, they set themselves alight in magical flame when in battle, exploding in a ball of fire when they die) I'm going to need to make...

If I run it, I'm tempted to limit it to just the PHB (might include the FR campaign book if I set things there) and not worrying about prestige classes, at least initially. I do have all of the 3.0 class books (tome and blood, the other ones) so I could include those, but they'll show all of...
