Of course there is a middle ground, but it's always these two extremes that get rolled out for the sake of argument. I think that is why the artist wrote "both" here: not because there are only two playstyles, but because both sides of that evergreen argument are valid and therefore, everything...

B.A. Baracus, hands-down. That guy is just so friggin' cool.

Woah. I had no idea.

(record scratch) Wait, what?

Weird, there's not one single vote for "soda pop." I remember seeing ads for "soda pop" in old magazines and comic books, but I haven't seen or heard it anywhere else. I guess it's an antiquated term?

I honestly don't know how Oklahomans manage to do lots of the things they do. But on topic: they apply branded labels to almost everything--tissues are all "Kleenexes," all headache medicines are called "Tylenols," etc.

In Oklahoma, this is a common conversation at mealtime: Joe: Do you want a coke? Bob: Sure. Joe: What kind? Bob: Dr. Pepper. Yep, I grew up referring to all brown carbonated beverages as "coke" regardless of their flavor. Root beer, cola, cream soda, or ginger ale...Coke or Pepsi or Dr...

Nah, we've been gaming together for 14 years, I have a pretty good handle on what they care about and what they like. They just each assumed that someone else would have a lantern or light cantrip.

SYLVAN SLINGSHOT Weapon (sling), uncommon (requires attunement) This sling is made from supple leather and braided cord, and would be completely ordinary-looking if it weren't for the faint Elvish runes embroidered on the pouch. While attuned to this sling, you know the Magic Stone cantrip and...

For me, it looks like this. In the first adventure of the last campaign I ran, we had a whole party of Humans and Goliaths and Firbolgs...and nobody noticed during Session Zero that none of them had darkvision. So they entered the dungeon, accidentally fell down a chute, and were dropped into...

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm not really looking for a new system; the 2014 edition of D&D suits our group just fine. Until 5E no longer works for us, we don't have any real pressure to switch to anything else. I was a little excited about it when it first was announced, thinking that I...

Ya know, the more I learn about the 2024 rules changes, and the more "just use the 2014 rule for that" posts I come across, the more comfortable I am with my decision to stay with the original 5E.

A Texan took a vacation to New England. He had only been at the hotel for 2 days, but everyone was already sick of hearing about how "everything is bigger in Texas." The toast? "It's bigger in Texas." The trucks? "We have bigger ones in Texas." The tomatoes? "Oh that's nothing, you should...

Here's a matching set of exorcism-related items. The idea is that if all three of them are found and attuned by the same person, they would have a full suite of tools for capturing and exorcising a troublesome fey, demon or haint. THE BELL OF ANATHEMA Wondrous Item, rare (requires attunement...
