    D&D 5E (2014) How would you make dragonborn decended from Tiamat?

    Do you mean for mass combat purposes or for encountering by the PCs in individual patrols?

    D&D 5E (2014) How would you make dragonborn decended from Tiamat?

    Isn't Tiamat chromatic, with a head of many colours (she looks handsome, she looks smart, etc)? In which case the chromatic dragonborn traits work just fine. Just give the PC a holier than thou attitude. And maybe stripes. If you want to throw them a bone they can maybe have 2 or 3 breath...

    D&D 5E (2014) Light Cleric Build Advice

    I'd probably swap CHA and INT around, personally, for saves. Apart from that, a Light Cleric seems perfect for CoS. Buffing your WIS stat at level 4 is probably wise; by level 8 you may need a feat instead of the bump.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Warlock broken?

    There's a joke about a semi in there somewhere but darned if I can find it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Modern Background Ideas?

    What Li Shenron said. Reskin rather than rewrite. Also, Hermit with Discovery feature = Hacker uncovering secrets (Neo?).

    Is'Merith - Campaign Thread

    "He says, not much of anything other than a stink of rat. Any luck with cleaning that door? Any ideas? Should we just let this one go?"

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Warlock broken?

    Yes, this. Darkness is only a 15' sphere and outside of 10' dungeon corridors (of which in my campaign so far, and LMOP aside, there hasn't been that many), darkness is generally a fairly localised effect that affects some but not all of the party/monsters, and moves with the caster. So there...

    I will, thanks.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Warlock broken?

    Hah. Seems wrong to me, and I will house rule my way for my table. It seems to me that two blinded (not blind, no Daredevil shenanigans) people flailing at each other are more likely to miss each swing than if they were both able to see (which is what this ruling suggests - that two blinded...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Warlock broken?

    Yep, I'm saying that both parties are at disadvantage against one another. The comment I quoted seemed to say that if both sides are blind it cancels out and attacks on both sides are made normally without either adv or disadv. I disagree and say both sides suffer disadv. I'm not sure what...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Warlock broken?

    Really? I never read it like that. I always thought if your target was blind you get advantage because he is blind and you are not. Like, if you're hitting an actual blind person at noon. But if you are in darkness and suffering disadvantage, I don't see how the other guy also being blind has...

    D&D 5E (2014) Starting level

    Hi Well, it's my first ever poll so I just set it to run a few days. If you're tired of seeing it here, maybe just ignore it? What am I hoping to see? As many individuals responding as wish to. In order to satisfy a curiosity I had. Nothing sinister. Maybe nothing interesting to you. But...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Warlock broken?

    Long rest = sleep. You can't concentrate asleep. Short rest = tend wounds, regroup, refocus, stretch out, "cup of tea". I'd say you can concentrate on a spell while short resting. How many Concentration spells last an hour that this would really be an issue for?

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Warlock broken?

    I'm interested in making a sailor who, when pirates maraud his ship, set it aflame it and tie him to the mast, appeals for help...any help...the only answering call came from the Deep... He turns his soul over and the Deep demands blood in return. Said sailor then embarks on a campaign to find...

    All Change At WotC: New President Arrives From Microsoft As Greg Leeds Resigns

    Sounds like a desire to move into more online/video routes.

    D&D 5E (2014) Starting level

    Quick question. What level do you typically start a campaign, on average?

    D&D 5E (2014) "Bear Stride"?

    Could you utilise a Blink type effect to allow him to shift into the space of one of his summoned fey bears by travelling through the ethereal plane? He could choose to Blink into the fey bear of his choice within range, with that bear going into the ethereal plane instead of him. Little more...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Mystic: How to handle Psionic flavor?

    I never saw psionic said as a good fit for a magic based game, myself, but i wonder if you couldn't have psionics be divorced from Class entirely as it was in AD&D? Maybe treat it like a version of Magic Initiate (warning: off the top of my head idea below)? Start with 2 psionic 'cantrips' and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Who raises the dead?

    The answer of course is Justin Timberlake. He's bringing sexy back (from the dead). I'll. um. I'll see myself out.
