    D&D 5E (2024) NPCs, and the poverty of the core books

    You can only have one King of Kingsland at a time too, pr one Slayer (at first). Unique at the moment does not mean no one else could ever learn this or be this.

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    Either side can go as far as they want, subject to the social contract for their group, and any campaign parameters established in session 0. As far as CR is concerned, very roughly, there were two warlock PCs. Both communicated with their patrons (and they with them) regularly throughout the...

    There's a clear path to Spellfire another person could conceivably follow, once the old wielder is dead.

    A buddy of mine played it at Gencon and couldn't say enough good things about it.

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    It could mean a lot of things. There were warlocks in multiple seasons of Critical Role, for example, and they're patrons seemed to matter quite a bit. What they don't have to mean is a loaded gun to the warlock's head. Trust rears its ugly head again.

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    I don't recall anyone pushing that. I do recall you immediately drawing that conclusion from "I want a warlock's patron and their pact to matter in the campaign".

    Still seeing a lot of absolute statements from your corner.

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    What about if we threaten to have the patron you chose when you chose to play a warlock actually matter in the campaign?

    Why would anyone have unique abilities that no one else could have?

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    Because mechanical balance is not my primary concern. Setting logic and verisimilitude are.

    There's your issue. Asauming lack of evidence is evidence of lack.

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    Who ever said the default relationship between a God and their faithful is one of love? That the Christian belief, according to Scripture, but hardly universal across time and space.

    This is why we're never going to agree regarding player-GM relations.

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    Thank goodness you're not being over the top hyperbolic about it. I'm sure that's exactly what they and I are talking about. I can be sarcastic too.

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    I said mechanics follow fiction. That's my ideal, but it's not a mad absolute ride or die like so many of your statements of other people's opinions read like. And as I've said before, the only use I see for a la carte multiclassing is for A5e's synergy feat system, which requires 3 levels each...

    D&D General The Player's Quantum Ogre: Warlock Pacts

    Because you want to play a character class with that narrative, and you trust your GM won't a be a jerk to you but rather, wants your choice of class to actually matter in the campaign? Hard to accept, perhaps, but that's my answer, and I haven't been screwed over yet.

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    A lot of people seem to think the rules of the game should only apply to adventurers or in direct relation to their activities. Honestly if that were the case I wouldn't bother with that game.
