That is pretty cool. Certainly a reason to keep them in very safe places for very long times.

Yeah, a magic stick should work as Neechen said. Also because magic stick.

Oh, interesting. I liked the former rule better, but thanks anyway.

Of course, nowadays anyone can use scrolls, too. If they make the Arcana check.

A good player has all the qualities of a good GM. Or a good GM has all the qualities of a good player. - Know the rules and be willing to compromise. - Understand your fellow players' preferences and engage them. - Understand your own preferences and present them in a positive and constructive...

I think the grace part is well covered with Dexterity. And being graceful and beautiful doesn't make you a people person. In 3.x Unapproachable East for Forgotten Realms, there were Star Elves who featured a Cha bonus, though. Converting them to 5e might get you: Star Elf +1 Cha Weapon...

Yes. It does. Rogues are out there to kill you. Hard.

Yes, but that thing is "eternally starved", whatever that is, so I would not bother with usual starvation rules.

If you want, you can still allow checks to determine the presence of magic. Detect Magic then is an automatic success on all such checks.

A feat to gain Channel Divinity. A feat to gain Metamagic.

We started a campaign with spell jammer like ships. I presented the basic plot: Ten years ago a jammer crashed on the PC's planet without survivors. It took ten years to reverse engineer the vessel. The PC's are the first crew to venture into space. The players then created their world. We used...

Oh, ooops. Why did I think it was 3d6? Was that in the playtest?

Compare it to Magic Missile. If you hit a single target, the damage of Magic Missile is the same as the "damage" of Sleep, on average. But while Magic Missile deducts from the target's HP in any case, Sleep is an all or nothing affair. The advantage of Sleep is that you can indeed affect a...
