Most of the time, I don't have a "normal" or "preferred" way to start building a character. Sometimes it'll start with an interesting multiclass idea, or an interesting race/class combo, or sometimes it'll start with a single "What if?" question that pops into my head. It really varies a bit.

To sum it up with my favorite quote: "The Setting drives the Characters which drives the Plot."

One of my players is playing Indiana Jones, as a rogue, but he's got a homebrew archetype called Relic Hunter that I found on reddit. It's magic stuff, but it's fun, and he's having a fun time with all the history I've put into the game.

The Great Modron March I expect to be part of Adventurer's League, because of the "episodic" nature of the adventure. Perhaps that means we'll get Dead Gods as the actual adventure for Planescape, which I for one would enjoy. I'd not expect a Rod of Seven Parts to be Planescape, but set in...

Uh, no. Screw that.

Uh, no. Screw that.

I'd make Masterwork weapons simply normal weapons that are fancy and cost more. It doesn't need to be "this isn't a magic sword but I have an additional +1 anyway!" Just unnecessary with the rules of 5e.

I'd like more summoning spells, personally.

I'm pretty sure that everything in there we saw in the playtest UAs, but I don't think everything made the cut; twitter said 25 of them, 4 of them from SCAG or something.

I actually didn't like the CHA hit thing...I hated that from 4e, too, so it's probably just me.

I really hoped that Hexblade didn't make the cut...I hated that subclass.

You outline all the issues I have with Mystic; I'd have preferred it to be the themes of "Mind over Mind" and "Mind over Matter", i.e. telepathy and mind attacks/control, and telekinesis. As written, it's far too broad; you can make any theme and any character as a Mystic, and that's not...

As soon as I saw the trailer for this, I went, "Hey. This is Shadowrun. They're smart to not call it Shadowrun."

Huh. I might actually have to buy this one. To Amazon!

My wife wants to make Nicolas Wolfwood from Trigun as a ranged vengeance paladin. I got to say, though, that I dislike the idea. I'd rather a divine rogue archetype for something like that.

Would it be possible to get a PDF of the SRD that contains the Open Gaming Content? I like to write with a pencil and hardcover book using my tablet for reference stuff, but the tablet sucks for displaying webpages. I can just create one, of course, but rather would not go to all that trouble.

Well, at least I got that going! I gotta save up for a hardcopy of OLD now, and get some notebooks...

Thoughts: Iron Age Sword & Sorcery: In the absence of anything else I can think of so far, I have this urge for an iron age setting, late to middle Iron Age sort of thing. Secret: The campaign would hinge around an NPC that has the ability to change life; essentially immortal, she was...

I've got an itch. An itch to worldbuild and write a campaign, and I'm considering using OLD, and, since its Open License, I considered perhaps publishing it. Is this something that people would want? My own writing style is extremely detailed and very sandbox-heavy, which makes me wonder: what...

I really wanted to back Revised Stars Without Number, because I really want both the core and the Omnibus...but I can't afford to right now. bawling panda face
