I'm assuming the players are higher than level 1. If not, they're not the best bounty hunters in the land unless they're the ONLY bounty hunters in the land... probably. Hire someone to scry (Scrying, level 5 spell for most casters) for him, or learn/prepare said spell when able. Hire (or...

Is... is this setting basically 'The Legend of Korra' with the serial number filed off? :o Because that would be amazing.

Since you plan on multi-classing, keep in mind that ASI gains happen every four Class levels instead of every four combined class levels like in 3x (ie a Warlock 1/Monk 3 would not get as ASI until they advanced either their Warlock or Monk 'side' to level 4). DISCLAIMER: I am not a...

I recall a 2e Kit called the 'Greenwood Ranger' that slowly turned a Ranger into a Plant as he gained levels. Borrowing from the mechanics of, say, the Dragon Sorcerer, I wonder if this would be something of interest in a unique 'third' option for a Ranger spec.

I'm playing a Bard in a 5e one-shot later today with a Life Cleric, a Druid and a Paladin. I've come to learn that Paladin, Bard and Druid are the dream-team, especially if themed together. In a 4e game, battle healing is practically an essential part of the process. Less so with the others...

D&D's a team game at its heart. As a Druid (and especially as a Wild Elf), your class focus traditionally tends to the Natural world. Assuming 10-11 Int, you can Max out 4 skills at level 1 or spread the love around if your stats are particularly high. If you don't have a Ranger or a...

It would, however, be a great story for a solo campaign: guy with no magical talent at all becomes a town's "hedge wizard", lives fat off the generosity of the townsfolk until a real issue comes into play that needs "real" magic to solve. And I'm pretty sure there's at least one movie that has...

Well, I wouldn't have an issue cutting their spells off at 6th if they also had the choice of all Wizard spells like in 2e. :)

I must be the cheesmeister. I've been playing multi-classed characters since 1e and Half-Elven Bards (some multi-classed, some not) since 2e. It took the D&D gods 40 years to finally put the Bard center stage. I'm happy. ^_^

A nice DM might let the Lorebard's 3 'new' skills be traded for languages.

As an aside, Oath of the Crown (in the Sword Coast Adventure Guide or SCAG) swears you to, among other things, a sovereign nation. In your character's case, s/he could be all about bringing the Drow community together. It also makes for a very 'superiority'-minded individual, as many of the...

I ran 3.0's premier adventure, The Sunless Citadel, with minimal futzing. It helps that it's a very strong and well-organized adventure with the right amount of seasoning.

I second Whizbang's advice. Practically anything from the 3x/PF era will work in 5e with minimal tweaking (specifically, the GP treasure amounts and the 'monster math'). Goodman Games made a whole bunch of 1e-style "plug and play" adventures in their classics series - they even modeled their...

A warlock/sorcerer blend is what she wants... but given the... uh... sociopathic bent of your players, are you sure she'll be even comfortable gaming with them? Seems her idea is nothing like what the other players are into. I feel there's no point in making her a special snowflake if she's...

It should also be noted that Morrus is the creator of the WOIN system, so anything you want to know about it, you could likely ask him. :)

Strap a tambourine on your shield. Jingle jangle, there's your spell focus. :)

At the risk of edition-warring, this concept might actually work a lot better in 4e. I tend to see 4e as D&D 'superheroes' where the end-game is almost always working towards some kind of divinity/immortality. Backgrounds and Themes can cover former god-hood or even pretend god-hood.

Centaur: Take Wood Elf. Give him 4 legs. Add 5' of move (40 base). Give him the Goliath Powerful Build trait. Change Stat bonuses to +2 Str +1 Wis Disadvantage on Stealth checks. Horses don't stealth. Weapon training: Longbow, shortbow, maybe one polearm of choice? Languages: Common, Elven...

Shayuri, did you ever pick up that I designed our character relationship from a play on words? See: Juno and Janus Specifically: "Janus and Juno cooperate as the first looks after the passage from the previous to the ensuing month while the second helps it through the strength of her...

Better "relative influx" than "relative bloody flux."
