    D&D General What if the Wind Dukes of Aaqa were actually Djinn?

    I like it, especially as Djinn werent originally of fixed alignment and elementals shouldnt be. Making the Vaati a specific sect of Djinn who chose Law and discipline rather than chaos is great world building

    One thing I have been thinking about but who I dont have anyone to bounce off is the whole issue of criminal stereotype in the urban black community. Riri is a very smat black woman in chicago, has the trauma of surviving a drive by shooting and who recently spent time living with the Princess...

    How many "steps" is too many?

    I like FATES system where combat is roll Attack - roll Defence = Harm -> take stress or consequences Adding complexity is voluntary via invoking aspects but you're only adding 1's or +2's so its relatively simple. I have been thinking about turning DnD combats in to cinematic Skill challenges...

    Phase 5 of the MCU is over

    hmmm 5/14 is 35% of products which were good - Daredevil, Loki, Agatha, Guardians, Ironheart 2/14 were horrible though - Secret Invasion and Quantum mania so 50% mediocre. I enjoyed the Marvels and didn't mind Captain America even if the antagonist were underdeveloped (and a bit stupid) so...

    How many "steps" is too many?

    roll master is too many Roll D100 add Offense -> subtract Defense -> Flip pages to find the weapon specific table -> identify armour type to find damage and severity - > roll on the Critical table for effects -> loose a limb or die -> Try to have fun :)

    Yeah having Zeke Stane turn up was a nice touch given how long ago Obadiah had his 'plane accident' and that Obadiah was the very first villain killed off quickly. Funnily enough Zeke is the character from the show I'd most like to see make a reappearance in the MCU (well him and Mephisto).

    D&D 5E (2024) Which class to take level 20 in - Ranger 13 or Bard 6?

    Yeah with Mantle of Majesty Bard 6 is a solid choice given you're stats are optimised for Wis and Cha. You get Command every turn, and can combine that with charm and fear and fey reinforcements for high utility crowd control while your Bardic Inspiration provides party support. Youre the...

    I didnt expect to see Mephisto in Ironheart (is the link canon in the comics?) but I did enjoy Sasha Baron Cohen in the role - he even looks a lot like the comic book version (even if we only get the red in an easter egg) Also does this mean Mephisto is going to be a major antagonist to Dr...

    The Running Man | Official Trailer

    Arnolds version was classic but very much its own thing, but hewing more to the book I think this looks different enougn from Arnolds version that it will stand on its own - change of name would help

    TEAM LAKE: KAYAK 2 - SUBJECT: SHADE-9 MISSION: Ride the Rapids The river surged beneath them, white-crested and roaring with momentum as his strokes kept cadence with Aywins and their Kayak darted forward towards the centre of the river. A flurry of subroutines flashed through his core an...

    AD&D 1E Atheist cleric situation...

    That depends on you as the DM and the nature of the setting 1. You might argue that as he draws power from Universe he is restricted across the board when outside his native plane/Universe 2. You could go Plane by Plane - is the Planar nature such that he has full access or limitation 3...

    (5.24 PBP) Vault of the Dracolich (IC) Redux

    As their kayak crested the current's edge, Shade-9 shifted his weight to keep equilibrium as Aywin swung out and against the hazards with his paddle. Loklafd ahead had not been so lucky, a sudden surge in the river tipped him against the rocks and his kayak came stuck, caught on a rocky snag...
