    D&D General Dragonborn as Kobolds: Yea or Nay?

    Agreed. :) There are several heritages in Level Up where the heritage in question has two monster types instead of one. There are several species in 5e that could (and should) have two types. ;)

    D&D General Dragonborn as Kobolds: Yea or Nay?

    Since Kobolds are now of the Dragon type in 2024D&D, will the Dragonborn likewise be reclassified as Dragons? ;)

    D&D General Dragonborn as Kobolds: Yea or Nay?

    Maybe. If they were written up to be something like the Tatsumi species in Ryoko's Guide to the Yokai Realms, it could work. The Tatsumi species is dimorphic with one half of the race being the Koi-like Nishikin and the other half resembling an Asian version of the Dragonborn, the Ryujin. During...

    D&D General Dragonborn as Kobolds: Yea or Nay?

    The Midgard setting from Kobold Press had a similar rite called the Rite of Draconic Ascension. It was used to transform non-draconic individuals into one of five Dragonkin subspecies in 5e (Flame, Wind, Wave, Stone, and Soldier).

    D&D General Dragonborn as Kobolds: Yea or Nay?

    True. It's quite possible for the Ritual of Rebirth to be co-opted in order to produce Dragonborn who resemble other dragon types such as Chromatic, Metallic and Gem (more if you include the dragon types in PF1). I haven't seen one yet. Though I did come across how the Urds came to be in the...

    D&D General Dragonborn as Kobolds: Yea or Nay?

    The Dragonborn in 3e's Races of the Dragon were very different from the Dragonborn in 4e and 5e in that they were originally members of other species who had heeded the call of Bahamut during the Dragonfall War with Tiamat. Those individuals who became Dragonborn would undergo the Rite of...

    D&D General D&D Releases New Japanese Campaign 'Oni’s Right Hand'

    A Naruto TTRPG would be nice. :) Currently there is a homebrewed version of it on D&D Wiki. Shinobi World (5e Campaign Setting) - D&D Wiki With a Shinobi class. ;) https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Naruto:_Shinobi_(5e_Class)

    D&D General Why do we color-code Dragons?

    It could have been a two-way street. Think of the number of physicists today who grew up playing D&D.

    "Only you can put out fire-breathing forest dragons." ;)

    D&D General Why do we color-code Dragons?

    The Dungeons and Dragons: Book of Dragons also has their Latin genus and species names too.

    D&D General Why do we color-code Dragons?

    Back in 3e, the Half-Dragon template could be applied to dragons. So, you could have a Half-Red Blue Dragon or a Half-Blue Red Dragon. ;) As for Purple Dragons, that was another name for the Deep Dragons since 2e.

    D&D General 5.5 PHB Species Options

    I picked Dragonborn, Goliath and Human. Of the three, I would be more likely to role-play the 5.5 Dragonborn. It's a lot better than the 5.0 version with regards to its' breath weapon (I like how you can now switch between a line and a cone AoE) and its' new Spectral wings feature. However, I do...

    To play, or not to play.....that is the question.

    There needs to be a thread of 'what do you liken EN World to?' ;) Thanks to the animated movie BELLE, I think the term Internet Society is a good way to describe what EN World is or at least could be.

    To play, or not to play.....that is the question.

    Ditto. I didn't read the site rules either when I set up my EN World account 4 years ago. But I think all of us here have a general idea on what to do and not to do while visiting the forums.

    To play, or not to play.....that is the question.

    Not only that, but Never Deal With A Dragon as well. ;) (Shadowrun reference).

    To play, or not to play.....that is the question.

    Also, don't be surprised if the thread you're looking thru veers off-topic every now and then. Sometimes one of us posters will bring up an interesting side-topic. ;) It's how some of the topics on EN World have lasted so long.

    D&D 5E (2014) Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    There's also Level Up's spell-less Ranger. Its' Wildborn Ranger is the equivalent of the Eldritch Knight Fighter.

    D&D 5E (2014) Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    And long enough for some homebrewers to come out with a version of it that's really likeable to some players. ;)

    D&D 5E (2014) Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    Nope, WoTC will just continue to reincarnate the Ranger with every edition or in an upcoming supplement (ex. Tasha's Cauldron of Everything). ;) The Ranger I am currently playing is more martial than caster.

    D&D General Dragonborn In Your Game (A Poll)

    PF1 has a couple of racial archetypes for some of its' classes. The Treesinger Druid (Elf). The Bushwacker Gunslinger, Dragon Herald Bard, Snare Setter Rogue and Swarm Fighter Fighter (Kobolds).
