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

    The mystic was also a class from Dragonlance. In the Dragonlance Campaign Setting sourcebook, the mystic was the divine counterpart to the sorcerer, and predates the favored soul. It gained a single domain, which helped to define the character. Prior to that, the mystic was more of a role in the...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Variant Rules

    I liked the idea of variant rules articles like this, but I thought it could have been done better. Vitality seemed a bit clunky to me. While it's not a system I would normally use, I could see it for some modern or scifi D&D games. Alignment - I sure would have liked to have seen some...

    Psionics Coming Soon To D&D?

    This has me super-excited. :) My guess is that the psion will be a subclass of the sorcerer. The mechanics match up with prior editions pretty well. That being said, I was hoping for a full class with subclasses based around the psionic disciplines.

    D&D 5E (2014) (Fantasy) Sports?

    Maztica had a ball game based on the Aztec ball game. I tried running it once, but it didn't turn out well. :(

    D&D 5E (2014) ranger with panther companion as mount

    I played something similar back in the 2e days. There was a kit for the Fighter called the Beast Rider. I came up with the concept of a Thundercat riding Battle Cat. I love white tigers too. Admittedly, a few liberties were taken with this character, and it was my early roleplaying days. ;) I...

    D&D 5E (2014) Thematic Differences Between Paladin (Green Knight/Oath of the Ancients) and Ranger

    One of the subclasses that has intrigued me in 5e is the Oath of the Ancients paladin (Green Knight). I know the mechanical differences, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to differentiate them from a thematic role-playing POV. They're both champions of nature, just in different ways...

    Dragonlance Would you allow Kender outside of Dragonlance?

    This is a point I've made numerous times. This is also akin to saying, "I'm just playing my alignment." This topic comes up every few months, and we tend to go round-robin on this. The arguments are circular. It's almost a part of gamer culture, unfortunately. A few people have had first-hand...

    Halfling/Hobbit Sourcebooks and Adventures

    I am looking to run an all-halfling one-shot set in the Five Shires sometime in the future, but I need some help fleshing it out. What I am looking for are some sourcebooks or adventures to help me flesh it all out. I know of some D&D resources, but I was wondering if there were more. I know of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Sean Macdonald's Prince of the Apocalypse maps. (Spoilers)

    I've loved Sean's work on the maps he did for Dragonlance for Margaret Weis Productions. Glad to see he's doing work for WotC too. Way to go, Sean!

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apocalypse Hits the Shelves!

    Could someone with this book post a synopsis of the Dragonlance conversion notes? Thanks in advance.

    Monte Cook Games, Thunder Plains, & A Petition

    This was a good response. Kudos to MCG for trying to represent Native American peoples in a respectful way. I have to wonder what the response to Riverwind and Goldmoon from Dragonlance would be in the modern era.

    PATHFINDER UNCHAINED at GAMA?

    Considering that some folks refer to Pathfinder as 3.75, wouldn't that mean that instead of 1.5, it would really be 3.875? ;)

    [UPDATED] What's Paizo's "Big News"?

    It would make sense to have Paizo do a Greyhawk AP, perhaps based on Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk (since Erik Mona, Jason Bulmahn, and James Jacobs worked on it). One can hope!

    Dragonlance DragonLance Paladine and Takhisis, how did they return?

    Likewise, some are content that the Fifth Age, or Summer of Flame, or Taladas never happened. It depends on who you ask. Everyone has their favorite era, continent, etc. Heck, there are six alternate timelines as well. Plenty of room for DL fans of all stripes to find something they love.

    WotC Closing LISTSERV Mailing Lists

    That's amazing. Do you know how to find the archive for Dragonlance? I don't see it on that link you have. I've been searching for that for years.

    13th Age 13th Age and Eldritch Might Bards for 5e?

    Two of my favorite pre-5e sources for bards are Monte Cook's alternate bard in the Complete Book of Eldritch Might, as well as the excellent bard found in 13th Age. What I'm wondering is how one might convert those two sources to use with the 5e bard. Personally, I love the idea of spellsongs...

    D&D 5E (2014) What's on your psionics wishlist for 5E?

    I also want to see the return and further development of Sardior. Likewise, I want to see the best of the Mind's Eye articles. Likewise, I want to see campaign setting support. Dark Sun is a natural, but I want to see Eberron with psionics as well. Plus notes on using psionics in the Forgotten...

    D&D 5E (2014) What's on your psionics wishlist for 5E?

    I'm making my own bucket list based on the original poster's list, because there was a lot of good stuff there. Power points! Psion class (with six subclasses, "psionic disciplines"); Soulknife subclass for monk; Psychic warrior subclass for fighters; Kalashtar PC race; Thri-Kreen PC race; A...
