    D&D General What is your most prized Dungeons and Dragons Product?

    Interesting, my copy thanks Chaosium in the acknowledgement for permission to use the Chuthulu and Elric stuff but there's is no Chuthulu and Elric stuff to see. There is Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser stuff.

    D&D General What is your most prized Dungeons and Dragons Product?

    Okay, I notice a pattern here: Deities and Demigods!? I guess I'll have to take a look at it again.

    D&D General What is your most prized Dungeons and Dragons Product?

    My 3rd edition Monster Manual 5. Not many of those were printed. Also, my copy of The Pleasure Prison of the B'thuvian Demon Whore. Ha ha, that module is a trainwreck.

    D&D General Dinosaurs in your campaigns

    I recently started playing an adventure from the Golden Vault series, which takes place in a museum with an interesting exhibit titled something like "Creatures of the Past." It features a huge Allosaurus skeleton. This caught my attention because, in other Forgotten Realms adventures, dinosaurs...

    D&D 5E (2014) "Fixing" electrum pieces - looking for a player's perspective

    As a player I'd be fine with 100 sp = 10 ep = 1 gp, but I'd be curious why equipment prices would switch from gp to ep. Wouldn't that make equipment ⅒ the normal price, or make gold pieces the new platinum pieces? I agree with the Jester, I like the idea of using non-metric exchange rates. Like...

    D&D 5E (2014) "Fixing" electrum pieces - looking for a player's perspective

    What happens to copper pieces? Are they eliminated or does 1,000 cp = 1gp?

    D&D 5E (2014) Xvart: Humanoid or Monstrosity?

    Maybe, like a clay golem, they're constructs, then they become monstrosities when they get that breath of life. Finally they become humanoids when they gain a little knowledge about good and evil.

    D&D 5E (2014) Xvart: Humanoid or Monstrosity?

    Oh dear, that will not do. I guess the curse will just have to be a smart curse (Can you polymorph an autognome into a hippopotamus? I don't see why not.) What is MoM and what sources do these other races come from? I don't see them in my application. Thanks.

    D&D 5E (2014) Xvart: Humanoid or Monstrosity?

    D&D 5E (2014) Xvart: Humanoid or Monstrosity?

    I wrote an adventure before the publication of the Monsters of the Multiverse and now I'm updating it. There is a curse in the adventure that only affects humanoids. I need xvarts to be humanoids and boggles to be fey. I also need nilbogs to be humanoid. I guess I'll just be sticking with the...
