This is true, some spells are perfectly filling a niche and the only way you will ever see those spells used more is to ensure their niche situation comes up more often. I think water breathing is a perfect example of how a simple change could make a spell much more common. I see (and take) it...

Not any more than the spell level system already allows. The situational spell will have to be significantly better in its niche than the generally more useful spell is, to the point that the situational spell is probably over powered. I will say that this has a LOT to do with the way I play...

Yes, I’d forgotten that

This sounds like mostly a lot of extra book keeping. I can't see it making a significant difference in what I would take. If a spell is highly situational, I'l only take it if I expect that situation to come up often, no matter how cheap the prepare cost is. The only time I would take...

No problem, death saves are made a the start of the turn, I often make the same mistake. But it turns out we're Thateous too

Chairwoman gene gets to act as she came around with her save.

Technically you rolled up a Troubadour-Warrior as well, but for the sake of variety I've gone for the result below which is a Battle Priest Battle Priest ARMOR: Heavy (AC 18) PRIMARY ABILITY: Wisdom SAVES: Wisdom SKILLS: Insight, Persuasion SIGNATURE ATTACK: Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit...

It is looking hairier than I thought - I may have worked this out for a 5th level party:-S Charwomangene, Nariah coming round certainly helps

Fistan, his pyromancy sated for now, looks at what the giant pulls out. "If you are supposed to keep it safe, best to get it out of this burning building." Fistan suggests helpfully. Arcana check : 1D20+7 = [6]+7 = 13 Arcana to recognise any significance of the shell. Then helping Aremus...

Lol, I hadn't thought of it that way. Feel free to make stuff up, though I may add history to him to suit the game needs. He's not your character, but I like to offer opportunities for player input to the story wherever possible - also, I'm not that creative.

You get a Troubadour-Warrior, which is kind of like a bard. He gets some more abilities at higher levels Troubadour-warrior ARMOR: Light (AC 13) PRIMARY ABILITY: Charisma SAVES: Dexterity, Charisma SKILLS: Deception, Performance, Persuasion SIGNATURE ATTACK: Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit...

NP, Justincase' Paladin is still a mystery, but I did say there was no rush due to the holidays. I think we should aim to get going next week (7th Jan), all this festive nonsense should be over and done with :P Going to offer two of you a follower for now. It'll be a retainer rolled from the...

:) It looks like an insignificant cost, but it adds up. I can't see your free magic item choice though

True It doesn’t take into account what you’re looking for - or even what level. You mean like Kahlessnetor did [emoji2]

A fair point. For some reason I really like the rules, even though I don't really like randomness in character creation.

Yeah, it can be confusing, roll 20 places the icon name under the icon, so if two icons are stacked like that it can get confusing. Lol, I did wander why you were contemplating abandoning your friends :P

What's wrong with a ring of spell storing, given to the fighter/rouge? It limits the spell level to under 5 and takes a significant effort to recharge (ie the DM has some control by not letting the party have two long rests)

That's Nariah, Duran is at K5, in the big melee.

Round 4 Duran catches up with his wounded colleauge, calling on the power of nature to help him. Erol drew a bead on the leading orc, catching a glancing hit with his crossbow. Illvilious swings hit staff but the orc dodges. He doesn't see the follow up fist and takes it square on the jaw...
