(One) is a murderhobo cleric of life. I'm not making this up. *Often joking an cutting up which is fine but picks bad times to do it or perhaps too many times to do it. Jokes as a toe in the water sort of way. * Not really interested in rp but can. *Likes tactical combat and gets pretty...

Thanks everyone. I knew I could count on you. I will be taking a look at a couple of these. Other systems Savage Worlds, Beyond the Wall, and Dungeon World. I watched a video with one of the Dungeon World creators....wow I was blown away. I may delve into Shadowrun which I have or ICRPG since...

Would the inverse be true? If you dislike paladins AND/OR like anti-paladins would you be a good, good person?

I disagree with the assertion that All rules are for powergaming. I might agree that all decision point rules in character creation are for powergaming. ie: put ability scores here or you will suck, pick this xxxx for this ability. Where xxxx can be feat, spell, skill, subclass, race...

Perhaps this monsterous Orc was trespassing in a fey forest to hunt when he was mauled nearly to death by a bear. Rather than let him die the Bear King spares him healing him with Royal Jelly from his own hives. (Royal Jelly had the properties of the best healing potions back in AD&D and it was...

I had a great campaign involving a cleric of Kelemvor (sp) the god of the dead and a dark necromancer. Lots of dramatic tension and roleplaying. In the end their ability to cooperate was because Kelemvor deemed it necessary so long as the shenanegains were kept to a minimum. This meant that each...

This is hard to write. I may have to break up with D&D. Maybe I don't love it anymore. Perhaps I never loved it. I think this because every time I think of the rules, they bother me. Like initiative, I use it but what choice do I have? Six second rounds eww. High level world changing spells and...

I don't feel like this at all but then again I am deeply satisfied with a game going from 1st-10th or 3rd-13th. Beyond that I have almost 0 interest in play. I like the prime material plane. I like killing it's inhabitants and it's visitors. I don't fancy walking in heaven or hell or any other...

I think what he meant is that ideally you should know what you can do in a round. In 5e you need to know the types of action. You need to know what can be performed with each type of action. Lastly you need to know when the actions can be used and how many you get. In breaking things down in...

Of course you're right about action economy. IDK what I was thinking there. I think I meant action types....who knows. Brain.exe has crashed.

I dislike the action economy. Move action, standard action and bonus action and reaction are all broad and granular at the same time. Before action economy there were units of time often represented by jargon ie. Turns and rounds (I remember segments too but I don't know if they support my...

Character reasons, however I will not accept a reduction in power unless it is for greater flexibility.

I second this. IIRC the realms of Ravenloft were called the Demiplanes of Dread. Entities like Vecna and Strahd were called Darklords and within their finite demiplane they were boss. It is a weird place with strange like rules Power Checks and sanity. Lots of details and ideas worth mining can...

Leveling is weird and has weird effects on the way the game plays and is played. Leveling is about getting better. Most of us want to get better. The how, in this case, is xp or fiat. That is not really important though except to the tastes of the players and DM. Timing seems to be more...

Eltab I thought the archfey were voted most likley to become griefers. For what it is worth I thought Rumpelstiltskin was a feypact warlock who was fulfilling his patrons' byzantine instructions. Unless he was the archfey and worked a bargain with some poor down on their luck warlock hopeful.

I have a game coming up on Saturday. I may give it a shot since things are going to get brutal.

For me, I feel like I don't deserve it. It breaks the fantasy setting for me. It is like a degree of agency that conflicts with my role as a player. But ... In my group of players there is a tendency to forget things like potions excepting healing potions. Inspiration is kind of like that. I...
