Last time I played an elf, their backstory was that they had been married to a human, and watched them grow old and die. Then watched their children grow old and die. As such they were burdened by grief, and had adopted many of the manerisms of an elderly human, despite being biologically quite...

Yes, Dawn Treader is mine too.

This is before the Galileo shuttle crash. Spock isn’t a very assertive commander yet. He hasn’t learned how to butt heads with stubborn arrogant scientists yet.

I can see plenty of real world scientists being snippy about military escorts, and it’s a common enough trope in fiction. It’s also consistent with Korby’s character in TOS.

The aliens who set the arena test might have weaked the gorn to make it fairer. They seemed interested in testing intellect and morality, not physical power.

I think the gorn are supposed to look the same but upgraded from rubber suit. Like the Enterprise doesn’t look quite the same because modern VFX.

I’ve never seen a PC Dragonborn, despite doing nothing to discourage them. My preferred option is tail but no wings, but players can choose whatever cosmetic options they like.

That sort of thing happens in real world maps too. It’s why I prefer more stylised maps, to remind people it ain’t Ordinance Survey. Given that Toril is a sphereworld, there is going to be significant distortion, particularly in the north of Faerun, which is why they rarely touch on anything...

And transferring a Siren’s suggestion ability to a normie cult leader.

Pretty much anyone could do me better than me. I find myself wholly unbelievable.

The +2 throwing axe was pretty much my favourite item in BG1.

They could put the key over it, or a compass rose.

It’s what you get from too much tabletop RPGs. Well, the asylum is 8 hexes from the school. That’s 40 miles. Which in wolf form, with one rider, without stealth, would take 3.5 hours.

That’s how Ophelia has been done in previous versions, but I did notice Mortitia refer to her as her younger sister. Yeah, I know it’s technically true for twins, but would it be worth mentioning unless you are going for cheep point scoring?

It’s fairly standard in dramatic storytelling to cut out the stuff when nothing plot-significant happens. Having been to boarding school, I can tell you that there is a lot of time you are in school but not in classes. There was a scene with Pugsley causing trouble in Christopher Lloyd’s class...

It’s a private school - of course it’s desperately short of funds, and of course the headmaster is embezzling, it’s pretty much compulsory.

Evil DM simulator! I’m not a fan of anything “hard” in computer gaming. I play to relax, not get my ass* handed to me on a plate! *Actually a fat Blackpool donkey.

What matters is the role play. The power is irrelevant.

Attack on sight for chaotic monsters is in the core rules for Basic D&D, so the encounters don’t need to state it.
