    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    I've never seen someone flounce over a strawman argument that someone hasn't made yet.

    D&D 5E (2014) 4E Cosmology

    Maybe it's like the DC Multiverse. Abeir and Toril occupy the same space but vibrate at different cosmic frequencies. Alternatively... parts of the D&D multiverse are said to have existed for millions of years. Vecna is said to have been around for over 100,000. But Toril's history only goes...

    D&D General [Workshopping] The New Beatifics (or replacing Eladrin in the Outer Planar order)

    For my homewbrew setting I created some bee-themed celestials called the Beeyonders for the Chaotic Good plane.

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    The conversation has gotten kind of uh... intense... for a single word being changed in a stat block.

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    If I may take a moment to redirect us to the original topic of the thread, I've put up a DMs Guild product with customization options for most of the species in the game. So now you can make the Giff Death Cultist and Autognome Entertainer you've always wanted. A Splash of Species

    D&D 5E (2014) For those playing 2014 5e, how are you reacting to the 2024 update?

    I'm continuing ongoing 2014 games in the system they originated in though I may grab enemies from the new Monster Manual if the mood strikes. After that, I don't know. I haven't started a new game in a while so I'll likely put it to party vote. Leaning toward using A5E as a base with 2014...

    D&D General How To Weaponize Monsters In Fiction

    There's a firbolg war criminal in my campaign that engineered diseased gelantinous cubes that broke into smaller cubes when they died and then launched them via trebuchet behind enemy lines. So they would proliferate and spread disease.

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    It has nothing to do with historical accuracy. It's about not walking face first into stereotypes like a cartoon character stepping on a rake. Like, for example:

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    Seriously I wouldn't even begin to try and make a product like OA. I don't know enough about East Asia.... and more importantly I know that I don't know enough to always distinguish between good reliable sources and bad sources. Wikipedia can only get you so far when trying to write about...

    D&D 5E (2024) Wrapping up first 2-20 2024 campaign this week, some of my thoughts

    I generally allow crafting components for common and uncommon items to be bought instead of quested for but anything Rare or higher is going to require some effort. Though I'm kind of wondering if I should rethink that given some of the items categorized too low.

    They might publish it but only as an Occident.

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    In the hypothetical where WOTC did anything with the property there's no way they'd call it Oriental Adventures. Likely something like "Ishi Barasume's Guide to Kara-Tur" or something.

    I always forget about TES Online.

    Critical Role To Wrap Up Third Campaign, New Exandria Unlimited Miniseries Announced

    I've found Daggerheart kind of clunky and hard to follow so I'm not sure. Maybe if the premise intrigues me.

    Just out of curiosity where did Bethesda make the change?
