    D&D General Satine Phoenix is trying to make a comeback

    Never really liked her. She felt very tryhard. I didn't mind she was a woman in gamer space or used her sexuality to gain fans, but I never shook the feeling she was in it for the wrong reasons. When all the stuff broke about her and her husband, I can't say I was surprised. Did she ever...

    D&D General 6E But A + Thread

    I find this notion of OS players needing to be creative and clever while modern players just spam widgets to be a bunch of grognards getting high off their own farts. Modern D&D can be creative and encourage clever play while old school players can stand around lost in a room trying to find a...

    The issue of course was that the spells were often not placed correctly in relation to class access, creating things like druids losing access to reincarnate while clerics gained it. In fact, you could design specialty priests who lacked many of the fundamental spells to even do their job...

    D&D 5E (2024) NPCs, and the poverty of the core books

    I'm fascinated with this. There is no ability an NPC can have that a PC cannot? No Vistani with the gift of plot device prophecy, no dragonslayer or witch finder with abilities to hunt certain monsters at the cost of others? All offshoot subraces (drow, derro or Cynidicean) must be PC options...

    It's basically this. You can make a thousand D&D clones with different names and have each one play differently from D&D and people will love them all, but make one of those clones the "official" D&D game and people will cry bloody murder about the changes to the mechanics, tone, feel, and...

    I still don't see how you combine a scout, wilderness warrior or nature caster into one class without a.) feats, b.) powers, or c.) talent trees, but its your hypothetical 6e.

    Can I just point out how hilarious there comments are in a thread about what you would want in 6e?

    I can't see how this works. You might as well say "replace the fighter, rogue and sorcerer with a dungeon focused class that could go combat, exploration or magic based."

    Dungeons & Dragons Releases New Unearthed Arcana Subclasses, Strongly Hinting at Dark Sun

    Same. I can absolutely see agents of the sorcerer kings using conquest paladins, Sk warlocks, shadow monks, and assassin rogues, etc as agents for different missions. Allows for a variety of different NPCs types to battle and the ability to build PC Parties if you want to play the baddies instead.

    Dungeons & Dragons Releases New Unearthed Arcana Subclasses, Strongly Hinting at Dark Sun

    Why Not Both .gif I've always been a fan of more than one way to skin a concept, so the Legions of Templars could contain scheming magicians who swore pacts to the SK and your fanatical warriors who swore an oath to them. Your Tarkin/Vader breakdown.

    Dungeons & Dragons Releases New Unearthed Arcana Subclasses, Strongly Hinting at Dark Sun

    To be perfectly honest, most settings benefit from a Year Zero continuity. TSR pushing Metaplot changes to Dark Sun, Ravenloft, Planescape and Dragonlance did a lot more to damage those settings than help them. I don't think of many people who look on the The Greyhawk Wars, Grand Conjunction or...

    It was a 5e adventure path. It wasn't overly fatal and the whole thing ended at 9th level. People dropped in combat but healing made sure no one died. The bulk of the casualties came from starting with a potential pool of eight players and only having five by the end due to real life issues...

    3d Color printed. Which is why she was $40. I don't have a pic of the actual printed out one. Suffice to say they are expensive for one character which is why I don't make one for just anyone.

    It's been a minute, but wasn't there a prophecy about him dying and returning, thus forcing him to go through that? The bigger issue (of course) is that his return does nothing. He's not the king, doesn't kill the Winter King, the only thing he does is kill the 11th hour villain after she makes...

    I missed this on my first read-through. Let me tell you a story about the last D&D character I played before real life conspired to make me a Forever DM: Esmerae. You see, my DM bought Spelljammer (The Beadles and Grimm version no less!) with the intent to run Light of Xarysis. I intentionally...

    I'd like to. By the end of GoT, (no the books no longer count, he's never finishing them) the sheer about of character assassination and murdered characters had left me with no character I was rooting for and secretly hoping they all lost. If you want to run your campaign like George Rartin...

    Dungeons & Dragons Releases New Unearthed Arcana Subclasses, Strongly Hinting at Dark Sun

    WotC is being too cute by half. You notice no The Dark Sun related verbiage appears anywhere in the "Classes of the Apocalypse" UA? They don't even call it Dark Sun when we all know it's Dark Sun because they don't want people comparing it to old Dark Sun. People are going to people, but the...
