It's always been an amalgamation. A pick and choose, a cornucopia! In other words, those who claim its set in a specific "setting" have only been correct for the game in which they played. Each edition may (like you say) have had a flavor, but even that flavor was a mixture of ideas and cool...

I see what you did there...

For context, research how fireballs expanded in AD&D, and Lightning Bolts bounced.

I separate the concept of warlocks away from the paladins and clerics. Clerics and Paladins: ongoing flow of power (to an extent) Warlocks: trades, no take backs. This give the warlock more of the "gaining knowledge and eldritch secrets" vibe that I like them to have. And in this situation...

Agreed 100%. I always looked at Tucker's Kobolds as utilizing what they had cleverly. I will have to re read the story in case i missed unfair advantages such as you point out.

Brom's still alround...so theoretically....

I've been there!

They started (and the main reason I supported them) by raising funds for kids to read in LA. Nobody was paying them. That all started when they got popular, most proximately, D&D Beyond, which wasnt WotC at the time. Is there money involved now? Of course. Good for them. Wish I could have...

Overall, I understand and agree 99.99 percent with your post. Well said. On the other hand, what I quoted above is what all the bad guys say to justify themselves. Hehe. You don't preserve to personally benefit, you preserve because its the right thing to do. But like you say, that's a...

But if they do play good characters against all the incentives, and succeed, they are heroes of legend!

"I think" they were suggesting adding the average hp affected by sleep (20 ish) by the number of acolytes in the squad (5?) to get a combined hp total for sleep of 100. Still not how it works, but interesting.
