    D&D 5E (2014) Any Updates on Psionics and the Mystic?

    I thought I read somewhere that we would be seeing an update on the psionics article WotC posted back in July sometime in November. Anyone got any info on this?

    New SCAG Info: Someone Got The Book

    Honestly, I would treat it as a feat. Genasi Heritage, or some such. That would allow any race to take on a trait or two from the Genasi (or whatever race you want).

    New SCAG Info: Someone Got The Book

    Some things I would like to know about, if the info becomes available: 1. What are the half-elf and tiefling variants? 2. What are the barbarian's new totem spirits? 3. What new bardic colleges are there? 4. Purple Dragon Knight - Only fighters can become Purple Dragon Knights? Or can you be a...

    D&D 5E (2014) TLG Releases 5th Edition Adventure

    Fantastic! I always thought that 5e took a bit of inspiration from Castles & Crusades (one of my favorite 3rd party D&D "clones"). So I am so glad to see the Trolls doing a 5e conversion. I hope to see more. Trollzah!

    Psionics Survey Results: Generally Positive But More Work Needed

    Where did you hear that there will be a Dragonlance setting next year? Everything I heard suggests that it'll be the Realms for the foreseeable future. I am hoping to give the mystic a try here in a few weeks. The question for me is whether the class can work as the Dragonlance mystic or not...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why Dont The Creators Add Snow Elves In D&D?

    The beauty of D&D is that you're able to make your own rules, then share with the community. My recommendation here is to use something existing, and then modify it to be what you want. What makes an elf into a snow elf? Resistance to cold? Ability to travel across snow and ice without a...

    Isn't it a bit late for College of Wizardry? It came out in 1998, after all. ;)

    New D&D Monthly Survey: Mystics & Psionics

    Here is the feedback I gave on the mystic flavor: In regards to the flavor of the class... 1. The name mystic is a good fantasy name, but it isn't as representative of the class as the name psion. Please do not use psionicist as a name, as that is a mouthful. 2. The mystic may be confusing to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    A distinct possibility. WotC forced the 3.5 sorcerer on DL back in the day, rather than letting us develop one that felt more like the SAGA sorcerer. We made a good compromise with the Academy Sorcerer prestige class in Age of Mortals. Many, though not all, of the spheres of mysticism could be...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    By that logic, we should stick with the name psionicist. ;)

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    A Dragonlance might be run by an old schooler, but not necessarily. There is a portion of the fan base who continue with the 3.5 materials in Pathfinder. Likewise, a number of us also play Dragonlance using 5e. Back in 1e/2e, this was the case. Sovereign Press/Margaret Weis Productions took...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    What would be optimal would be if they could meet in the middle. What I fear is the situation where a fan of the psionic mystic comes to Dragonlance and finds that DL's version of the mystic is a totally different beast. So if the 5e psion lands up being called the mystic, it would be nice if...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    One of the spheres of mysticism in Dragonlance was called Mentalism. The Fifth Age mystic really could be divided into three D&D classes: the cleric (without gods), the druid, and the psion. It was the power of all living things, and of death. Really, domains can cover a lot of that. That...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    When 3e came about, the sorcerer class was introduced. Dragonlance already had a sorcerer in the form of a Fifth Age role. Sovereign Press, who held the Dragonlance license, tried to create an alternate class to fit the DL sorcerer more, but WotC mandated that the DL sorcerer be the 3e sorcerer...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    Green Ronin beat Paizo to it. ;) The Psychic's Handbook Excellent book, btw. BTW, how about an opinion poll on the name? Include mystic, psion, and psionicist as options for names (and maybe some others)?
