    D&D 5E (2014) Player characters as heirs and eventually rulers

    Another idea is to NOT make all of them heirs to a kingdom, but still children in a noble house. They have all been sent off as wards to another noble. Some perhaps voluntarily, some perhaps as hostage wards, some perhaps as betrothed to other children of the lord, or other reasons. While they...

    D&D 5E (2014) Array v 4d6: Punishment? Or overlooked data

    One idea I've played with is that if the player wants to roll for stats and isn't happy with the resulting character, they can re-roll. This new roll is for the younger sibling of the first character. They can keep going as long as they want, but there are in-game consequences for being the 15th...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spells: the Good, the Bad, and the Downright Orcish Grandmother

    I assume that witch bolt is meant to conserve spell slots with the tradeoff that it doesn't do quite as much damage as some other 1st level spells. One house rule I might add is that the caster can target the enemy and CONTINUE to target the enemy even on a 1st round miss. As long as they...

    D&D 5E (2014) DungeonScape Beta Gloat Thread

    "nailing it" has got to be worth a bump up the list on the beta invite, right? right? :p

    D&D 5E (2014) DungeonScape Beta Gloat Thread

    I would agree, but I don't think there was a lot of PR around the beta. I suspect that once Wizards begins to push the information out on their site and the URL is printed on future books, that it will see a lot more interest.

    I signed up on the 7/15 (2nd day) and must be half-way down the list of beta testers. Can't wait to check it out.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Spellbook Cards Preview

    Love the snark, but you're off by a month. The first sets were due in late August and the rest in late September. I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something obvious, but I think they are just running late.

    I've been thinking about bringing back Finnian. He's a level 4 Longtooth Shifter Ranger/Beastmaster.

    Adventure: The stolen staff (DM: Someone. Judge: Luinnar)

    Perhaps we should take these writings back to Lord Charles and be done with it. I can't wait to get out of this wretched hole in the ground. Well played, everyone. Look forward to the next adventure!

    Adventure: The stolen staff (DM: Someone. Judge: Luinnar)

    I'm back in town too. Looks like Neil1889 made a move for Shun, so I'll just hang back and watch the rest of the round play out. I'm ready to post next round. Really glad to hear that you're OK after a close call, Karlowitch

    OK. I thought I was out until the orcs went again. I'll post sometime later today (after I sleep). Currently traveling.

    Adventure: The stolen staff (DM: Someone. Judge: Luinnar)

    Shun watches as the orcs almost evaporate before his eyes and after Ryan's javelin impales the last orc on the bridge, his eyes narrow and he starts across the bridge. The chain begins to swing around and around, making an ominous whirling noise. The sound becomes more intense as the rhythm of...

    Crimson, do you want Vyrna to go next?

    Adventure: The stolen staff (DM: Someone. Judge: Luinnar)

    Shun could attack the orc in front, but if the strikers have ranged or area attacks, they might want to go first and clear the field a bit. I'll wait for you all to go first and I'll plan on going last with Ryan

    Shun moves towards the bridge (J9) and prepares to meet any orcs that attempt to cross.

    Shun sparkles at the sight of flowing water. Ahhhh, now that's a sight for sore eyes. Water in this forsaken hole. The wilden drops his gear at the water's edge and reaches down to splash his face and wash the dust and grime that has been collecting over his plant-like hide. Brrrr. Colder...

    Shun moves to each door and listens for any indication of what might be on the other side... I'll go ahead and burn 2 surges to get full.
