Strange New Worlds has made me happy to be a Star Trek fan again, after years of looking at the mess the franchise was in and sighing. I mean, I liked the Kelvin timeline movies for what they were- Trek for the masses. Made to entertain, if not inspire. But far from the worst Trek has to...

I had always assumed that the Gorn Hegemony was actually a group of multiple species under one banner. So you could encounter very different creatures that were still "Gorn". Also, let's look at these new Gorn, who breed like digger wasps. So the victim is impregnated with microscopic eggs...

While we haven't seen one in awhile, transporter mishaps do happen, and I can understand why overriding the safety protocols is literally a Hail Mary play. Granted, there are still times when, yes, you might as well try a transporter and they don't, but it's at least plausible why it's not your...

Yes, I believe that was TNG: "Relics". His ship had encountered one of the Sphere Builder's systems, as I recall.

Here's two from the 2e DMG that I remembered:

Now we just have to figure out how he wields a staff in one hand- I recall a lot of people griping about being able to do that in 5e, as making no sense (and blaming movie Gandalf). Turns out, maybe we should be blaming Gary? lol.

Interesting that his stat block still says "#AT 1", but the intent is clarified at least!

Ooh! That would be a neat twist!

Ah yes, Lareth the Beautiful, a human male and favored of Lolth (?!). What a pain in the butt with -1 AC and 5th level in an "introductory" adventure (not to mention his Phylactery of Action- basically a Ring of Freedom of Movement!). Thing is, at least in my copy of T1, it says he has a Staff...

Probably, yes. And is apparently beholden to someone who he is in debt to, based on that phone call Wednesday overheard.

I believe the episodes can be streamed on Roku, but they can also be found on YouTube.

It's most likely Ophelia. But it could be a red herring- Ophelia is supposed to look identical to Morticia. OTOH, Wednesday is it's own thing, so yeah. Anything goes, I guess, lol.

Which gives me an idea for something I'd like to see- a fake documentary of an Outcast film crew stalking the family to show the secret lives of the Addam's clan. I know, it's been done! But it would still be entertaining.

I mean, with DM permission, any caster can gain a Quasit as a Familiar, right? Ditto with Pseudodragons and other options not part of the spell's normal availability. The guy took a shortcut, but if he's already got a working relationship with the Quasit, the demon's dark masters are probably...

Yeah, the Addam's have an interesting reputation- on the one hand, they're Outcast Royalty. On the other hand, even other Outcasts are like "um, something's not quite right with these people". Like everyone's reaction to what they consider "food" lol.

Yeah I was getting both vibes of the Tesseract dungeon from Dragon Magazine (issue 17? 25? I think it was in Best of Dragon vol. 1) and of course, the Great Machine of the Krell from "Forbidden Planet". I do wonder if that hourglass relic was a trap or actually did something... With all the...

Ok, having binged the first four episodes, wow, what a lot of spinning plates! We have fallout from season one, a sleazy new pyrokinetic principal (played to perfection by Steve Buscemi). Wednesday's sudden popularity, which has spawned a fan club of sycophants, one of whom has a stalker-ish...
