    Normally the components of a spell are rarely a problem, but it does give the DM a tool to stop spell casters being able to cast all the time (in the same way you can take away a fighter's weapon). Somatic component? tie his hand. Material Component? Take his focus/pouch. Verbal component...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Rhyot Break - Chapter One: Endless White

    Rorik Rorik returned the look, "Indeed. As a knight Arcane, I was essentially a glorified bodyguard for the wizards." he said, not quite willing to open up entirely to these strangers just yet. I'll share the diary soon enough, but I feel offering everything to some vagabonds you just met in...

    Desairn Valley, Day 9, Late Morning Round 1 Nariah, Illvilious and Thateous all carefully close with the south east fence. Nariah is just about able to get close enough to the sentry to suggest that he frees the prisoners. The orc gets a confused look on his face for a second, shakes his...

    What is this die for? (Proficiency dice discussion)

    Actually this makes the result less swingy, but with a greater range. The probability of rolling all dice high (or low) is lower than a mid range result. It does make the range wider (all ones or all max) but that has a significantly lower probability. In the same way that rolling ability scores...

    What is this die for? (Proficiency dice discussion)

    This is lie :P if you stop enjoying rolling a d12 you might as well shred all you RPG books. On a more serious note to the OP how do you deal with negative modifiers? Your idea is something I’ve thought about but never really liked for this reason? Subtracting a die roll seems to rub me the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Talls S&H adventure

    Eowyn’s conjured rain causes a hiss, then a slight flair of brilliant colour as something reacts with the steam. U’Tempei can determine that the orcs were caught in the explosion of the building. It is apparent why rumors of these orcs have been so terrifying. They are not 10 feet tall, as...

    Does she make no sounds at all? A simple solution would be that Eowyn whistles, clicks or humms the vocal components but otherwise doesn’t talk.

    Can you remember where you got it. The only magic items I can remember giving you guys is a sword and a ring of fire resistance. I may have swapped the Ring for something else though. EDIT: No you are right Post 1054 I gave you an Amulet of Health Could you note it in your Character sheet...

    Desairn Valley, Day 9, Late Morning Back at the orc sentry post there is a camp already set up, if you don't mind the smell. Do you take a long or short rest?

    D&D 5E (2014) Some warlock house rules (sorry)

    What would you say to hits with the pact weapon casting hex on the target. That would essentially grant 1d6 damage on most hits (as long as you aren't concentrating on something else). The effect on ability checks might make this option a little too powerful though.
