    The Gith Are Now Aberrations in Dungeons & Dragons

    I wish they had broken backwards compatibility a bit more. But really, how difficult is it to just say that in those campaigns goblins are treated as huamnoids. MM is not a law text. And actually the most easy book to replace with any monster compendium you like. You mean to differentiate the...

    The Gith Are Now Aberrations in Dungeons & Dragons

    That is sweet of you, but for D&D purposes that has not been true for 30 years at least...

    D&D Forums and Spam Threads

    Hi. Seems that the site is targeted with automated bots that create accounts and threads. Seems some security guard is not working properly. Isn't there at least a quick fix that disallows newly created accounts from opening threads?

    Ok. So why are you jumping to conclusions now? You only read some posts. Aren't they ephemeral too?

    Patience might be the key here. We have not seen the lore for most of 5.24. We will get some in the MM and probably more in setting books.

    Agreed. The gold dragon casts guiding bolt. So I hope they backtracked.

    Still sounds like a blessing. Not like a change from a feat.

    Ok I think they at least partially backtracked on that. And I am happy for that. Problem is that NPCs and PCs don't work on the same rule set except since 2008. And I am torn. One one hand I did like the 3e way of having NPCs follow the exact rules as the players, but on the other hand, it was...

    But probably quite a bit harder to play and to integrate in a given adventure for an average or new Player/DM. So having that alien PCs should be an opt in, not an opt out.

    Yes. It is in the video. Probably also in some book in the immediate future.

    No. In his blog. Quite new. And then he explained that similar explanations were created when the rule change from 3.0 to 3.5 happened. So either one bemoans hiw anyone can be so mean to change something so it does not perfectly fit into your world, or one finds a solution how all that...

    I forgot that anything that is not at least 30 years old is no lore.

    So Keith baker having humanoid gnolls in Eberron is a brillant idea, but when WotC does it, it is ridiculous? They had a perfect valid explanation. Not being born in the Astral Plane and instead living your whole life in the material plane changes you. I buy that. That idea was true for...

    I really loved this video. They were happy presenting those creatures. And what they actually said makes sense. I also liked them explaining that bugbear and boogeyman are etymolically related. And why they are so scary. Big creatures that can hide well and abduct you.
