    D&D 5E (2014) Intelligent Familiars

    Personally I think the Sentinel Raven being intelligent is enough of a free buff, and the sister's intelligence being tied to the brother makes for more interesting story possibilities, but that's just my opinion. In terms of balance the extended range probably won't break your game on its own.

    Why, Why, Why?

    Virtue is its own reward; you shouldn't need a pat on the head for not cheating. I don't play AL stuff, so I have no idea how often documents are checked, but the Panopticon Effect is a thing; the idea that their papers could be checked is enough to keep many people in line.

    Critical Role Do you Critical Role?

    I love the show and catch it live every week. It probably helps that I was a big fan of Travis, Laura, Liam, and Ashley before starting the show; my friends who play are also spread pretty far apart and can rarely meet for a game, so this is also basically my only way of enjoying D&D nowadays...

    What level's this spell?

    Actually I would expect to see things like GWM, magic weapons, superiority dice, ect on half/third casters more often than full casters. Even still, I'm sure it's fine when used with these as intended, it just looks exploitable, sorry if I overstated the severity of these considerations. As for...

    What level's this spell?

    As has been said, the fact that it works by letting you make weapon attacks is the key issue, as it has too much synergy with other features. It's easy to boost attack rolls, but only a hand full of things can sabotage saves; lots of features and weapons grant riders and more damage dice to...

    God Wiz...er...I mean, Druid?

    What everyone else said, but also Heat Metal. It is a nasty debuff that only druids and bards get. Target metal armor to make a creature have permanent disadvantage on attacks and checks. Free bonus action damage every turn. Target a weapon to disarm if you thing they can't make a Con save (or...

    [Homebrew]5e Arcane Tradition - Dabbler

    Keep in mind, if you use your bonus action to cast a cantrip using this feature, you can't cast a spell with your normal action unless it is also a cantrip. This is not a problem, just wanted to make sure it is intended.

    D&D 5E (2014) Unseen Servant, fun with

    Is it smart enough to function effectively as a spy? It is described as a "mindless force".

    Do you allow Acrobatics and Athletics to be used interchangeably?

    As someone else said, squirrels have a climb speed, so their bonus to Athletics is irrelevant. In terms of which check to use when climbing, I would say that if you have a running start, you can use Acrobatics if that momentum could reasonably carry you that high, otherwise you're out of luck...

    Interpreting Barbarian Rage in Non-combat Situations

    Good, that will help keep the rage going.

    Detect scrying?

    Usually, no. The spell does spawn an invisible sensor that the caster sees through though, so if the target or someone in the area can see invisible objects they can spot the sensor.

    Flesh to Stone spell - why the poor rating

    Earthen Grasp also inflicts the restrained condition, Levitate and Hold Person can prevent enemies from positioning on you, and if you want to ground something you can use Earthbind. All of these are 2nd level. Also, anything that induces the frightened condition prevents enemies from...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Inniate and Ritual Caster, how many times can you take them (for different classes?)

    Feats that let you take them more than once specify so (like how Elemental Adept does), so sadly you can only take each once (not even once per class).

    D&D 5E (2014) Determining a spellbook value

    On the other hand, if thieves weren't confident in their ability to take things without being caught and allowed the thought of getting caught to scare them out of it, they probably wouldn't be thieves. I'm sure there are all kinds of thieves out there and I'm sure creatures other than civilized...
