Yes, they do need therapy. In many cases they won't get it, often because they can't afford it, but they do need it. I never said their lives don't have value (though I have said before that mine doesn't). I never said murder is objectively worse, or that rape is objectively worse. I did...

https://youtu.be/4sqBYziYBAs?t=54s This sums up my opinion of more FR content, including Abeir.

Neither do I.

That is true. With that in mind it might be better to require succeeding on the grapple check by 5+. That's my go-to rule when a player wants to add an effect to a normal attack, such as sweeping someone prone with a kick.

If that statement were objective fact, you might have something there. However, it's not objective; it's entirely subjective. And there are survivors who would rather have died than lived with the trauma of having been raped. Many who feel that way attempt suicide, and some of them succeed...

I'm restarting my D&D campaign after a somewhat long hiatus to finish school and look after my father. I'm going to be implementing an initiative variant when we restart, and I'd like to hear the community's thoughts on it. Initiative Variant Actions are declared at the beginning of the round...

A choke really should only affect spells with verbal components. I haven't checked if there are any, but a caster who's being choked should still be able to cast any spells without a verbal component.

There is a fourth constraint: spell preparation. You may know fireball and lightning bolt, but if you haven't prepared them both then you don't get your pick against a fire-resistant foe.

WizarDru Thank you for the thorough reply. I greatly appreciate getting some information from someone who owns a 3d printer and has specifically used it to try to print 28MM scale minis. Also, I would very much like to see some of your results. I confess I didn't expect a low price range 3d...

I don't believe that having distinctly animal anthropomorphic races (such as cat people with actual cat heads, and not just nekomimi and a tail) will be a dissuasion to furries.

I don't tell them, but if a player asks I'll let the character make an Intelligence check to try to figure it out.

Non-Standard Races How to treat non-standard races really depends heavily on the world you're running. In some worlds, non-standard races may be a curiosity, while in others they're seen as dangerous monsters (monstrosity). Regardless of the opinion, you should treat it that way. A character...

It seems like there's some conflict of opinion about the quality of 3d printed minis. I know the filament printers typically create lower quality minis, but the liquid resin ones can create finer details than the filament printers. I know they're more expensive, but they've reached a point...

I only mention it because I play and allow non-standard races all the time; I've also played evil characters, and have allowed evil characters when I'm convinced a player is mature enough to handle playing evil. So, the topic would otherwise be of interest to me. Heck, one of my favorite...

Sorry, but I stopped reading there. Some terms just make me lose all interest in reading or hearing what someone has to say.

I only multiclass if I have to in order to fit a character concept.

Depends how you want to publish it. Once I complete the setting documents for my two campaign settings, I plan on putting them on DM's Guild.

All of that applies to stealth and darkvision as well as flight. What plans? DM'ing is a lot like watching a herd of 2-year-olds; it's more controlled chaos than it is a planned activity. Now, as iserith said, you might have planned out encounters, but planned outcomes is something most DMs...

And how do their mounts get across? Also, if it truly is a raging river, that just makes the challenge slightly less difficult, but you still have the potential consequences of the raging river if you fail. Sounds like it's perfectly fine. Assuming the top is open, that sounds like a...

The character who can fly removes that challenge for herself, assuming she's going to fly beyond the obstacle and wait for the party to find a way across. That character would have to be quite strong to carry the other PCs, their mounts, and their equipment across the obstacle. Overcoming one...
