To be honest, one of the main reasons I wanted to play the Druid was because I love the idea of shapeshifting. It's just that the way it's written (or the campaign we're in) seems to make it where my doing it is basically the worst option to choose in most of the situations. I can only think of...

I really appreciate everyone responding, even if it makes me feel like I shouldn't have taken the class to start with since I clearly don't understand how to utilize it. Of course, it doesn't help that we're currently in a magical maze that does not like anyone trying to climb/fly over it and...

Playing as a Druid has me feeling like the Wildshape feature, as written, is basically inefficient at best and basically useless at worse. How can I feel that way when it allows my character to become an animal? Well, let's examine it "As a Bonus Action, you shape-shift into a Beast form that...

He was never satisfied with Orcs. He didn't want them to be irredeemable but he never wrote any objectively heroic ones either. They also most likely look like ugly Mongolians to Europeans "squat, broad, flat-nosed, sallow-skinned, with wide mouths and slant eyes: in fact degraded and repulsive...

I think that just about everyone is hoping for a psionics book and Dark Sun campaign to go with. :p nods I think it'd be interesting if Goblins came with a sort of "mutation"option for some odd ability or appearance they have.

I think they're pretty neat, but I can understand why people would prefer ones from other settings.

One of the great and oft missed parts of D&D lore is Psionics, though there have been a number of attempts to bring it forward to the current edition. Along with the Psionics came various species, particularly (for this thread) the Blue Goblins. At least one person has tried to update them for...

There was nothing Rimelda enjoyed more than riding on her dracwyrm Boreas, who equally enjoyed taking her everywhere, especially since she'd grown horns similar to his. "You don't talk much about the changes," said Boreas as they flew south. "There's not much to say. It's not as if my...

Uno was a pretty typical cyclops, except for having been raised by Humans. They were the ones to give zim the name 'Uno' as if it were the most clever naming of all time. Uno learned pretty early on not to reveal zis true intelligence: it made the Humans very nervous, and after a few beatings...

"Another report, your highness." "Thank you Ursula." Ursula was a reminder of the variation the Goblins could have besides their skin, eyes, and hair. Horns, tails, even winged ankles were possible, but only sometimes bred true rather than being random. It was a gift of the goddess Alabra and...

Cecily was no ordinary Dayspring Fay. She was the daughter of Queen Tanaquill herself. As such, she had the most experience with outsiders of any fay whether Dayspring, Twilight, or Yeartide. This year had been a particularly exhausting one. The Dworolls from the Crystal Mountains had decided to...

The way you put it would work if the character were a Fighter or if either one happened before the character started adventuring. But they aren't mutually exclusive. Basically, in my head, it could be: Farmer -> Soldier -> Merchant -> Class Now the class could be Fighter, it'd make sense with...

I hadn't seen the customization in the default 2014 rules (I wouldn't have asked otherwise). I don't really understand 2024 being inflexible, but then I really don't understand 2024 in general.

Looking through the backgrounds, one thing that strikes me is there's no option for someone with a mixed background. What do I mean by mixed? Many heroes have humble origins, such as being a farmer, before becoming soldiers or whatever. Some retired soldiers settle in to jobs in town. How...

Next up: Eris the Triwyrm "Alydys'an'astisss! What do you think you're doing?!" Alydys sighed. This was the third time today. "Practicing my breath weapon, mother." "You know what I told you about that! There are the Spitting Grounds for it, not our cave!" It wasn't as if she could even harm...
