    Level Up (A5E) Going old school: Gold as XP

    I gave the party an NFT of the money so they would always have ownership.

    Level Up (A5E) Going old school: Gold as XP

    I always thought that you got xp for the gp but you did not have to (or be able to) carry it all off with you. So you find 10k gp in copper; you get the xp even though you might not bother taking any of it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Which common monsters/creature types do you exclude from your campaigns?

    To be fair you could be using them and might not know it.

    How faithful should a culture be adapted in an RPG?

    Not very. It’s supposed to be another world after all.

    Level Up (A5E) Were the Planetouched a design trap?

    You could. You just would not get the powers. You can still be creative, though. Nothing stops you from coming up with a great back story for how you are a mixed Genasi.

    Level Up (A5E) Travel quirks

    I find the 5 minute day confusing. What kind of adventure allows a party to take a long rest after every encounter? It never comes up at me table- they take short rests all the time, though.

    Level Up (A5E) Were the Planetouched a design trap?

    That's not what I said. What I'm getting at is that I can't see how anyone's creativity is being stifled.

    Level Up (A5E) Were the Planetouched a design trap?

    How does it stifle creativity? Create the guy you want and say that they don’t have fancy wild powers due to <insert background here>. Make it part of the guy’s arc. Unless it’s the wild powers you’re after and the fluff is window dressing it won’t matter.

    D&D 5E (2014) New D&D Player Survey!

    I liked the loads of questions. It's like they knew me personally.

    D&D General Dragons maybe shouldn't roar.

    “As you whirl around, your sword ready, the huge, red, fire-breathing dragon swoops toward you with a ROAR!” See? Dragons roar.

    D&D General IS the 5 min work day a feature or a bug?

    Funnily enough it has never happened in my group that has been playing together for the last nearly 4 years. I’ve been lucky.

    Dragonlance Read The Beginning Of Dragonlance: Dragons of Deceit!

    I wonder if they will use time travel to retcon things for the new Dragonlance setting.

    D&D General How "Real" is your world?

    My worlds have verisimilitude but run on Pratchet’s narrative causality.

    Level Up (A5E) Races from the Multiverse book

    So I was glancing at the new race format in MPMOTM and if you leave out the stat boost they seem fine to bolt on Culture and Background (but not heritage) from the Level Up books (although there are no paragon powers). Am I missing something obvious?

    D&D 5E (2014) Armour as Damage Threshold

    Yeah. It’s the armour bypass role. And if you have a shield you negate all damage on a roll of a on 1d6. Good times.

    D&D General Is power creep bad?

    It annoys me but I’ve got used to it.

    Level Up (A5E) Getting Started With Level Up

    It’s not so much that they are stronger than their CR might indicate more than their CR is more dependable as a measure of danger and they have a few more interesting options than MM mobs. But any third party monster book will do that for you. I try to avoid MM mobs for that reason.
