    D&D 5E (2024) Uncommon items - actually common?

    I'd rather the gods not have anything to do with non-divine magic. Rather, I'd say the strong and weak economic forces are naturally-occurring forces in the D&D universe.

    "Dearest, most powerful DM, who art the Lord of All Worlds, are the Van der Whols forces keeping my molecules from phasing through all adjacent matter still intact since the last time I checked? Is gravity still keeping my anchored to the planet? Is my heart still beating at a rate typical for...

    And... what about the players who do want that and came to an alleged collaborative storytelling game for that? And if someone replies, please do so without using the words preference, opinion or associated synonyms.

    D&D 5E (2024) The Problem with Healing Powercreep

    I feel like a lot of that headcanon was never actual canon, just not challenged by canon (except that one time and a tiny bit with 5.5)

    If it's every player, then I'm cool with it.

    D&D 5E (2024) The Problem with Healing Powercreep

    Yeah he's a great guy. He pulled together a lot of superhero writers a few years back. The group kind of fell apart, but we did manage to lobby Amazon into making Superhero an official genre on their store and do a few anthologies called The Good Fight. If you like his stuff check out Cheyanne...

    That makes it even worse if they're able to just directly veto without any discussion.

    But again, the situation still doesn't require the DM and in fact could be made worse with the DM getting to overrule everyone if they decided to side with the brothel player instead of the group discussing and compromising.

    Then you've already had that conversation and the brothel person should have known, no DM necessary.

    I do not. Also, you respect people for going after a company for doing what you told them to.

    D&D General A glimpse at WoTC's current view of Rule 0

    Yeah, but how are we supposed to discuss it if we're not privy to the information. The reason I suggested burlesque there's no sex, just sexuality and some people against sex work aren't against burlesque. So there's a conversation to be had without making assumptions about that player's...

    D&D 5E (2024) The Problem with Healing Powercreep

    Yeah, because it doesn't have to. You get to decide how your character acts. Also, the last time they did people got real sad about it and spent fifteen years going to war over the attempt.

    We don't even know what the objection is yet. I don't feel like this imaginary person who exists to make a point is engaging the imaginary group here.

    D&D 5E (2024) The Problem with Healing Powercreep

    Being lucky is the thing that happens as a consequence of either luck existing or the goddess of luck existing that the player decides when it comes into play. And you can have the character doing things they consider being good luck like chopping the foot off every rabbit they meet or stealing...

    The group talks tot he guy who finds the brothel morally repugnant to find out what the issue is and see of a burlesque is acceptable?
