    D&D 5E (2014) A brief rant about Rime of the Frost Maiden, farming, logistics, and ecology

    The day I moved to Goose Bay (July 1981) it was the hot spot in Canada - it had the highest temperature across the nation that day. Things can get pretty warm when the sun beats down from 4am to 11pm. However, there was snow in the forests until at least May and we expected the first snowfall...

    D&D 5E (2014) A brief rant about Rime of the Frost Maiden, farming, logistics, and ecology

    Those vents could also provide chemical nutrients for bacteria at the bottom of the lakes, which in turn feed small fish, which feed bigger fish. So the lakes could still provide fish. If the lakes were warm enough, there could still be lichen and moss by the lake shore, providing grazing for...

    D&D 5E (2014) Breaking down alignment to a basic core

    I've thought about giving my players that graphic and plot out where they are on it. Maybe no literally plot it out, but just think about it, so that it drives home that it is a sliding scale - not absolute values to choose from. However I really don't pay that much attention to alignment...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D doesn't need bards

    The bad guys in the G.I. Joe cartoon. After my time, but I had enough friends with little brothers, that I picked up on it.

    D&D General Alternatives to lich or vampire?

    I really like @Al2O3 's idea of an amulet that makes the father a minor lich/undead of some sort. I also agree with others up-thread that you don't really need a stat block of any kind. If party isn't going to fight him, then his abilities are whatever you say they are. If I absolutely had to...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D doesn't need bards

    Ahh! This was mostly a tongue-in-cheek post, but I could get behind that type of Bard!

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D doesn't need bards

    I'm just responding to @Morrus request for more suggestion threads for testing. However, I don't like bards and think the game would be better without them. Certainly not as full casters and in no way should they be able to swap spells on a long rest. Edited for grammer.

    D&D 5E (2014) Death Knight Legendary Actions & Lair Actions

    @Mon I definitely like the Symbols as Lair Traits and the booming voice! I was considering a sentient evil sword, but looking at your magic item list, I might have to borrow from that too. Right now, the party is 6 characters of level 7 & 8 (even split). They likely won't get around to this guy...

    D&D 5E (2014) Death Knight Legendary Actions & Lair Actions

    Thanks folks. Upon reading the advice I will likely drop the Legendary Resistances, or give it a max of 1 or 2 and the Legendary Actions and focus on some Lair Actions. This is all still in the prep stage for a sandbox campaign - its good to have some tricks up my sleeve in case the party...

    D&D 5E (2014) Death Knight Legendary Actions & Lair Actions

    Like the descriptions says - I'm looking for some Legendary Actions & Lair Actions for a Death Knight. Frankly, I'm surprised that the MM didn't have any for it, but does for similar CR Mummy Lord, Lich & Vampire. I've got a couple ideas, but I'm interested to see what the community has to offer.
