The Reaction is great. I try to give all monsters a Reaction. Reaction spells. I know trigger and opportunity are similar. No stat score above 30. No single bonus above around 5. Advantage/Disadvantage Resistance is half damage. My quick conversion of Pathfinder and 4E.. Any stat above 30...

Someone beat me to the punch and came out with a better DM Screen. But I still plan to make my own when I get a chance. I think I will work on a character generator summary too with the screen. There is no limit to the data on this screen. I'll include ability checks too.

I've been taking notes from the Basic Rules and will design my own Dungeon Master's Screen. This is what I have so far as a first draft. Will you make suggestions as to what rules I will put in? What is difficult to remember that isn't obvious that I should put in here? Actions you can take...

Sleep is an automatic hit affecting 5d8 hit points of creatures. +2d8 for every spell slot above 1st. Can you see how this in a monster caster's hands might destroy a party without getting to make a saving throw?

I will be using your character as a pre-gen for my next attempt at teaching 5th edition! A quick note. List your "passive Perception near your Senses." That is 10+your wisdom modifier(+2)+your Perception Skill(+0)=passive Perception 12

I will be trying this out. Thanks!

My coworker played three pre-gens. The two newbies played one character each. Didn't any of your characters loose the surprise round? The Goblins won the surprise round. Two Goblins attacked the Cleric in the same round because the Cleric was nearest to them. I did not pair 1 Goblin to 1...

I didn't add hit points because we all agreed to try to play the game according to the starter set rules without me putting in a ton of house rules yet. Just to see what would happen. I had a pretty good idea from the pre-gen character's low hit points that there would be a few deaths.

I did not understand the negative hit points but I got the death saving throws correct. The first player playing the Cleric failed the death saves. The other one was rolling death saves and they both stopped playing.

That is a good suggestion.

Who knows, maybe I read a previous comment of yours and got the idea to add the constitution score from you!

Yes, that is exactly what I wanted to do. No, really.

A little background on me as a Dungeon Master, I am from Seattle and know people who work for Wizards. I currently live in Japan and teach English to actors, singers and design people. My two players are both working on the Final Fantasy brand designing characters and doing things like...

5E still has a lot of potential. But I want a starting hit point increase variant. I demand it. I shouldn't have to ask for it as this was a big argument with those promoting low hit points and those promoting higher hit points clearly divided.

There is nothing quite like introducing two new players to 5th Edition and having their pregenerated characters die in the surprise round of the 1st encounter without getting to take any actions. No I will not start a campaign at 3rd level. No I will not fudge numbers. No I will not play...

How about put it up on torrent and we'll file share it? Totally legal distribution.

You're getting negative comments but you deserve a positive one. I think stats at a glance is a great idea. I experimented with that too and gave up on it in exchange for readability. Here is a screenshot of the Nothic. I am missing some information such as what is the Nothic's proficiency...

Why am I always that guy. Who is always the first to die. Always the first to die. So you better REVIVIFY.

The hit points are too low. 8 hit points, this character will die the first encounter or first challenge. This wizard better be best friends with the Cleric who can Revivify.

I love the layout and design with the red fonts. I would put 3 stats per red line row all the way down the table. I like all the abilities on one row.
