    D&D 5E (2024) Views on 24 MM/SRD monster mechanics now

    Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft had the Loup Garou, an advanced werewolf that has a regeneration trait that heals it unless it is damaged by silver weapons. I had assumed WoTC would use that trait for the base werewolf, and was a bit flabbergasted that they didn't.

    Weirdly, there are some exceptions, like the Empyrean, which does have BPS resistance.

    D&D 5E (2024) Views on 24 MM/SRD monster mechanics now

    I am a big fan of a lot of the changes! I like the spellcasting for the post part (although I might've preferred they put the damage dice for certain spells like Fireball in the stat block instead of putting "Fireball (level 5 version)"), and I like the damage and effect riders on many of the...

    Dhampir and Other Species To Be Included in Astarion's Book of Hungers

    I do monthly D&D one shots for teens, and I always make October's extra Spooky. I wish this was coming out a bit before Hallowe'en, but alas. Super excited for more vamps!

    D&D General Oh Please give me some Happy Backgrounds!!

    This is an excellent piece of advice! "No person is an island" is a saying for a good reason, and this mindset allows for creative development of bonds, in a meaningful way!! (This is my way of thanking you for the advice I'm about to steal! 😁)

    D&D General Oh Please give me some Happy Backgrounds!!

    Some of my favourite PCs I've played have been motivated by wanderlust and academic curiosity. I love the idea of a character who wants to learn more about the magical world they live in, as it's a desire that I have myself! I am curious to a fault, so I make characters like that! I also make...

    So, we know that each of these deities are going to get the Theros treatment: rules for benefits for following them, that sort of thing. I'm excited to find out how they figure ways to make it work for each god! Asmodeus being one of them provides a neat way for a PC to be a devil worshipper...

    D&D 5E (2024) What should the 15th Class be?

    Are there any old classes that are tied to settings? Artificer was Eberron, and Psion is likely Dark Sun. I wonder if they'll continue this pattern in the future? I do think Warlord would make the most sense, it's got the most recognizable name and concept I've heard, and it has the fan demand...

    I think this ties in with how the new 2024 DMG's approach to Gods and alignment, with a focus on a god's outer plane as an indicator of tendency towards alignment, but not a hard and fast rule.

    My understanding is that Shaundakul is the god of travellers and explorers, so "the Way" might be a poetic way of referring to that?

    Unearthed Arcana New Psion update, Dungeons and Dragons Unearthed Arcana

    I like that Telekinetic Fling no longer destroys the object used! It feels more "Psion" to fling a candelabra across a room, kill a monster with it, and leave the candelabra untouched.

    I'm struggling to make out the gods, but it does seem that Red Knight made the cut, which makes me happy!

    Ooooo, I didn't even think of that aspect of it! I guess we'll find out, but I have a hunch that you are correct!
