    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    I'm not the greatest at wording things in a written forum style, so apologies if it wasn't as clear as it should have been.

    D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

    That's it! You star! :cool: I know it's not the greatest piece of D&D art out there but it was so weirdly inspirational to me starting out with D&D.

    D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

    Despite a Google search I can't find mine. It was from the original basic D&D Creature Catalog book and was a simple B&W drawing of an aquatic beholder (an Eye of the Deep to use now). When I got that book as one of my first D&D purchases as a young teen, that particular picture sparked my...

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    I'm not saying that a character I play should never die, just that I wouldn't want it to happen. If it does, then it does. No issue there.

    Monster Manual Suggests Changes Are Coming to Some Playable Species

    I find it interesting that they have made such changes. I was wondering if when the new Monster Manual drops, that there would be some potential playable races in there. Seems the expected options, such as goblins, have might not be possible.

    D&D General Players: Do You Care From Whence Your DM Gets His Monsters/Challenges?

    Doesn't bother me so long as the encounters are fun, fair and balanced.

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    As a player, I don't ever want my character to die, but I want the fear that it might happen. The fear generates suspense and excitement but an actual character death is just disappointing. As a Dungeon Master, I only want (and want is not the right word) one maybe two character deaths per...

    D&D 5E (2024) DMG 2024: Is The Sandbox Campaign Dead?

    Personally, as both Dungeon Master and player, I've never been a fan of sandbox campaigns. Given the choice, I'd always go for a standard fleshed out campaign, in the same way that Paizo do their adventure paths for Pathfinder. Players get their agency but both sides of the screen know there is...

    D&D General Your Character Died! Who's Fault Was It?

    I don't remember the last time a character of mine died as it must have been well over a year ago (my last PC survived the entire campaign to retire at 20th). Normally though I would say it's just the luck or bad luck, of the dice rolls rather than anyone's fault. But there are plenty of past...

    D&D 5E (2024) How Important Is The Lore

    My group stopped with D&D when 4th was launched. We moved to Pathfinder and have been there for the last 15 years. Coming back to D&D now, a lot has changed. So much of the D&D lore that was part of 1st through 3rd, and even then 3rd did fiddle a little bit with things, has changed. Some of the...

    D&D 5E (2024) How Important Is The Lore

    I prefer classic D&D lore over the changes we have now but ultimately, I'll adjust to fit my setting anyway.

    D&D 5E (2024) Amnesia Sequence Yea/Nay?

    There is an episode of Star Trek TNG where this plot issue basically comes up. It's a mystery so they crew try to go back and investigate/solve what happened. I can say from experience that the same thing would happen with players. No player is going to leave that mystery unsolved and they'll go...

    LARP In the UK

    An old friend of mine used to play Lorien Trust. I don't know if they are still going but might be worth a look as they did frequent events and seemed like a good community.

    Arcane Season 2 Starts on Saturday, 9 Nov 24 on Netflix

    Just finished watching season 2 last night. I have to be honest and say that season 1 was better. It felt cohesive and with a set story. Season 2 just went weird and trippy with seemingly no real connection to the season 1. The character connections were really good right up to the end and I...
