    D&D 5E (2014) Could the Sorcerer get a Shaman subclass

    Mechanically it would probably be the primal version of the divine soul sorcerer (able to take spells from the druids' list instead of the clerics') who could spend sp's on a suped up familiar. Whether that would be better than a druid subclass, a cleric one, a warlock patron, some kind of...

    D&D General The Role and Purpose of Evil Gods

    I think it was 2e that had the notion that the demon lords were getting power from the Abyss to make other parts of the universe easier to absorb into the Abyss (and if that wasn't how things worked in 4e, it really should have been). Of course that was a long time ago, and I don't have the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Angels/Celestials of Different Races

    Jeeves the Butler was the main character in a series of comedy books from 1915 to 1974. These books are the literary ancestor of sitcoms. The very lawful Jeeves is the butler to his well-meaning but muddle-headed master Bertie Wooster (who leans chaotic). A common theme of the books is that...

    D&D 5E (2014) Angels/Celestials of Different Races

    You could use Muses as an overarching term for chaotics (like fiends for evil), with the idea that muses are trying to inspire mortals to think or act "big." Demons (evil muses) inspire people to evil acts (and thus a demon fills the role of "angel of hate"), CN muses inspire to act "big"...

    D&D 5E (2014) Angels/Celestials of Different Races

    I tend to think of angels serving CG gods as being like Jeeves butlering to Bertie. Even if the Master (or Mistress) is seemingly incapable of being respectable, they (the angels) will do their best to bring them there. As long as the angels aren't too overbearing, the CG gods appreciate the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Angels/Celestials of Different Races

    I think the DM Guide says that Arborea has elves that are celestials (so you can have a celestial elf archmage zap your PC's), Arcadia has dwarves that are celestials (so you can have a celestial dwarf archmage zap your PC's), Archeron has fiendish orcs and hobgoblins, and I don't recall if they...

    D&D General The Role and Purpose of Evil Gods

    Sorry for the digression, but: Traditionally one of the big pushes for more celestials is that they were summonable. While it is true there is a conjure celestial spell, it stops at CR 5, so there isn't a big reason to build up intricate hierarchies of celestials (much to my disappointment)...

    D&D General The Role and Purpose of Evil Gods

    I tend to make it so that gods aren't particularly interested in souls (that is more of an alignment things for devils, demon lords, archangels, etc.), but are interested in humanoids/fey/dragons/monstrosities (and possibly elementals) behaving in certain ways. They tend to work with outsiders...

    D&D 5E (2014) What ooze/slime/jelly is the kool aid man?

    Instead of a suit, maybe some kind of glass golem (with the siege monster trait to help breaking through the walls).

    D&D 5E (2014) PHB Humans are the most mechanically boring race. How do we fix this?

    I figure that humans should be the best at multiclassing. The best way to do that is that the first time a human multiclasses and does not have an ability score that is the minimum needed to multiclass, they get a +2 to that score. Sure that isn't great at level 1, but it is a pretty standard...

    D&D 5E (2014) Masters of the Universe

    I assume the sorceress just didn't tell He-Man he could heal people, since that was her gig. What you didn't see was that every time He-Man was around someone he could heal, a falcon would poop on his head to distract him. To be honest, I wish healing touch had been an oath of devotion paladin...

    D&D 5E (2014) Masters of the Universe

    I might go with He-Man as a Oath of Greyskull paladin, who has a channel divinity that gives him extra strength (or, in the spirit of the 1980's cartoon where he never hit anyone but could hit things, gives him the siege monster ability to do double damage to constructs). His other channel...

    D&D 5E (2014) Shadow Warlock

    I think you could give the warlock a shadow form similar to the form of dread (and like the Dresden File's Nicodemus Archleone) with some stealth boosts, shadow step, and some psychic damage and fear.

    D&D 5E (2014) Everything You Need To Know About Witchlight

    Now that they have custard damage, it is time for emotional damage for when the PC's mom shows up and asks why the PC hasn't settled down, got married, and a got a real job. I have heard that barbarians are vulnerable to this damage type.

    D&D 5E (2014) The warlock is a "better" wizard than a wizard

    I think it is more "ego maniac sweet talks sanity-destroying horror into giving him/her power." The Wild Magic Sorcerer is supposed to cover "buffoon who stumbles into power." That being said, I have long thought there should be a School of Law Wizard that specializes in making elaborate...
