    The Center of Time

    Duncan had followed the group through the town, through their meetings with others, and finally along the road, a mute companion. At first his silence seemed normal, but as time went on he seemed to drift away from the others, unresponsive, his mind... elsewhere. Even the encounter with the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Item design?

    That is a sweet sword! Did you design that, or is it from a module? I'd only change the Darkvision bit to "vulnerable to sunlight", otherwise it's effective against, say, Dwarven Clerics of Pelor.

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    Sweet! Spells: Entangle, Charm Person, Shield, Find Familiar, Sleep, Chromatic Orb Cantrips: Ray of Frost, Mage Hand, Firebolt For my Familiar, I'd like either an owl or, if possible, a monkey with wings that could use the same stats.

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    Witch Bolt: hah, actually I saw it just as I was heading out for lunch. Perfect spell! Church of Light: Hmmm, with the vast number of bibles in print, I'd guess some serious trauma blasted the world if that level of reinterpretation happened. (And my first degree included a major in...

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    Warlock: I hear ya, but I'm going to have to stay Wizard. It's... it's who I *am* (sobs, inspirational music, the hills are alive...) I'll go with that fire bolt spell, then, and look into finding lightning spells later, or items to convert damage to lightning. Since we're in the...

    The Center of Time OOC Discussion

    I'm alive! I'm trying to make sense of what's happened since, plus think of a way to introduce Duncan again, but would like to rejoin. My thinking is that he's been in a deep depression since slaying all those abhumans in the Sheer, not with his sword in a fight but with a lever. Now it's...

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    As someone who enjoyed both 3e and 4e, I can say that the idea of going by role rather than power source is a fine idea, imho. A bard is fine, due to the healing spells. More than fine, in fact. With the paladin mentioned, we'll have plenty of healing, plus two charismatic people (so I can...

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Item design?

    AC17 is nothing. Many 1st level characters will be able to hit that easily with their main attack focus (ie: spells for a Wizard, etc.). I found mention of magic items in the Basic kit, with a +1 weapon and +1 armor. If the high level monsters are so easy to hit (not one-shot, but at least...

    Random Character Generator (beta 1.0)

    sweet! I'll re-download, then, and try these out. How would I add the standard array rather than 4d6+race?

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic Item design?

    While planning for 5e games, I'd like to know how magic items are likely to be structured. Will we be seeing modifiers to attacks, armor, saves, or skill checks? Or are they expected to leave bonuses out, so high level characters will not be mandated to have magic items; and instead focus on...

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    The Trifold Tome, the Book of Eldritch Whispers. And sounds good. Let's see who else joins this little band...

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    Heh, TOME. Edited that into my post, sorry ;) And I'll try to come up with some further details. Question: while this is a game theoretically including historical classics, will it necessarily be a dungeon crawl through the previously-mentioned modules? Or will we be exploring the world in...

    Random Character Generator (beta 1.0)

    I'd like to see if I could create my own random generator for spells. I may have to look at an Excel sheet tutorial, but I'm wondering how to randomly select something from a list. One cell says "random" while others have #. I suspect I fill in the cells I want to select from randomly, and...

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    This is a randomly generated character. I'll fix the ability scores later, and as he's 1st level I won't need to worry about "Illusionist" (ie: I could, I think, make him an Evoker, which I'm thinking of doing anyway) Just getting my hat in. Urth StormwindHuman(Illuskan) Young Adult...

    Everything D&D Ever - Temple of the Frog

    and how long are chapters? dibs on wizard, I'd prefer High Elf or Human (or Tiefling, heh), and if it doesn't matter until 2nd level (which could be chapter 2?) I could have an eye towards Abjuration, Transmutation, or Diviner... but they're all so cool! There's a basic random character...

    Random Character Generator (beta 1.0)

    Love it! How do I steal the code? And can it be set up to work in, say, a forum like this one? Like, if I wanted to run a 5e game with players making up random characters (or just as an option) and they can upload a copy of the completed sheet in the thread? Also: how do I change it to be...

    How are you for the PHB? And, ummm, yeah I'll give this a go.

    The Fool (recruiting and/or setting creation)

    Hmmm... Maybe this game isn't fated to start yet. Shayuri, I'll get back to you; I think we're on the same page for setting design, and I'd like to show you some other stuff I've been working on. Anyone else who's also interested in a 5e pbp can also, of course, PM me. Mods: thread can be...

    The Fool (recruiting and/or setting creation)

    amazing! Elves: on the same page for the ships bit. Orcs: Gah! How did you... Okay, that was a spoiler. Um, yes, there's a "rumour" that Orcs are the result of a plague or curse that debases humans. Those who resist it before it takes hold are half-orcs, and many are good-hearted...
