Around here (rural area) it's a very small number. I can't remember the last time I saw a mask... probably at the airport last month? I expect there's a lot of variation here depending on what nation, region, etc. you're in. A lot of face to face activities saw a falloff in 2020 and have...

Yes, I use it to incentivize NOT going to 0. It works reasonably well.

Have you looked at the review of the prehistoric setting posted a few months ago? I think it was Planegea but my DuckDuckGo-Fu is failing me currently.

I do, so that nobody can accidentally see my notes, map printouts, etc. It's also a good place to put little folded initiative tents (cut up 3x5 cards) showing who's going in what order during combat. I tried having player-facing text on the front of the DM screen, but that only really works...

That's a good enough answer, thanks! :)

How kid-friendly is it content wise? I think my boys would like Saltmarsh, but apparently there's some stuff with cultists and a few other things that are probably not appropriate.

I'm running a Baldur's Gate II game right now. I'm adapting all the +X% magic resistance items as +Y to saves vs magic. 5% magic resistance gives +1 to saves vs spells. +50% (Carsomyr) will give +10 to saves vs. spells if they ever get it (and if they can convince a Paladin that the group that...

Time and logistics. I have two kids (family D&D game Saturday afternoon, 1-2 hours at a time). My in person group meets Sundays 6:30pm-9:30pm because that's all we could carve out. I've had the same group sequentially, but with most of the players rotating out / in due to RL, for the last 5...

What's the use of a digital art book? Here are pretty pictures on my computer? You can't hold it up to show it to your players, you can't put it on the coffee table, and the only way to make it a desktop background is to screenshot it. Like... I'm not sure I understand what this type of...

That is some really nice art. It costs 2.50 GBP to send a letter? That's around $3-$4 (Haven't checked exchange rates in a while).

I have run some fairly successfully on GITP, and participated in some that have succeeded. Don't expect to run a 1-20 campaign in PBP within a reasonable timeframe. Especially if it's your first time, pick a module with a defined ending that can be reached in a reasonable timespan, like 2-3...

Hunter's Mark, the class. Seem's like the 2014 Ranger with Tasha's Beastmaster fixes is probably better (especially since I fixed Favored Enemy to give +wis to damage against FEs from level 1).

Because Moradin hates goblins and kobolds.

Knight is a social status even today. So was Samurai, and so was kshatriya. "Martial artist" would work for monk, as martial arts almost exclusively refers to unarmed combat, but D&D's monk/martial artist is very wuxia in terms of slow falling, running up walls, deflecting arrows, etc.

I would also switch to halfling to negate the Nat1 penalties. You can always point out that a 20th level fighter is going to roll a nat1 every few rounds, where a 1st level fighter doesn't, and ask why 20th level fighters deserve to be penalized more than 1st level fighters despite being...

I would go for Crusher, Mobile, and ASIs. Crusher gives you free CC and the occasional advantage-granting on crit. Mobile boosts your speed even further, and gives you free disengage / hit and run. If you really want more feats, the Skilled feat gives you +1 to an ability score, expertise in...

Keep in mind that it uses the reaction of everyone who moves. That means they can't make OAs or cast Absorb Elements, Shield, or Counterspell. When they use it, it's time to hit them hard, or bypass the melee party members for the back line.

Isn't Perception for noticing things as you go along, and Investigating for finding things when you're doing a detailed study or deliberate search? Perception is valid for "Hey, that floor tile looks wrong" as you move along, while Investigation is "The drawer in the desk is too short; there...

I'm not sure exactly what the Warlock's build is, but there are a few plausible reasons - although a moon druid is probably the optimal choice since it's probably one extra attack for 2d8+4 or so on a low-AC chassis. If it's a melee warlock, they tend to be a bit squishy and can benefit from...

Another way to improve EK substantially is to let the player choose two spell schools instead of limiting them to defenses and ka-booms. Transmutation? They get Longstrider, Alter self (swimming/water breathing), Enlarge, Spider Climb, Haste, and Blink. Illusion? Invisibility, Mirror Image...
