I have in my home setting a city called Nea Thera, which is constructed on a small chain of islands in the Mediterranean Sea, in the near future if a version of our world where the 2020s - 2030’s see the revelation of The Hidden Folk, those people who are not human and whose existence is...

Thanks! I was thinking Primal, actually. That’s where nature spirits live, and it isn’t a stretch to also include spirits of life and death, etc. And it sits well with them worshipping goddesses like Meiliki and Sehanine, which feels right to me. Probably d6 and light armor only. Its primary...

+ thread. Please don’t tell me to make it with an existing class or anything like that. If I’m making a thread, the basic premise of it isn’t something I’m willing to debate. So, in making a witch class I want: Full casting, with advanced ritual casting. Even better than Wizard at rituals...

An ideal, perhaps? Take Freedom and make it a title for a person, and you have The Free. The Free, The Discuplined, The Just, The Stalwart, The Faithful, The Clever, etc

Better off just using a rapier and scimitar if you’re taking the dual wielder feat, and max Dex rather than trying to MAD just for one attack out of four or more. I personally relfavor the scimitar as a long dagger when doing so because the mental image of a rapier and scimitar is just weird...

It’s not that powerful. It’s literally gonna be multiple bonus actions, concentration, and a spell slot for 2-4 d6s of extra damage over the course of a fight. My group stopped using it altogether in the old rules. The 2024 Ranger relies on it as a cornerstone feature. A cornerstone feature...

I think that you could increase the damage die size, since it can’t switch targets. Or give a juicier secondary benefit like crit on 19 or even just “know all resistences immunities and vulnerabilities” for HM, and Hex could also deals damage when the target fails a saving throw.

Yes. But it should use the basic task resolution that the rest of the game uses. IMO D&D also Needs a defend and counter system both for weapon attacks and for spells. I partly fixed that in my own system by making players roll for defense and enemies just determine how many dice of damage...

I need the task resolution mechanic to be the cornerstone of the game, and to be the same mechanic for all task resolution. I need the rules to be clear and transparent enough that everyone at the table knows what a given task resolution means or how powerful a given effect is (assuming...

Things I’d want from a swashbuckler class; Speed comparable to the rogue and monk Very good with rapiers, scimitars, short swords, and daggers, as well as with bows and crossbows. A taunting feature like a 4e Mark or like Compelled Duel. Expertise Mid to high level ability to add Cha...

Is it? Dex and charisma, athletic skirmishing combatants with light (primarily melee) weaponry, using their charm as a weapon in combat alongside their skill at arms… I mean…the only real difference between Will from Pirates and D’Artagnan is place and morality. The primary cast could all be...

Oh, and the Slayer gets multiple damage boosts from preparing and angling for the perfect shot. Extra damage when hitting a surprised target, extra damage when attacking with advantage and even more if hidden, eventual advantage on all attacks against marked target and crit range increased, plus...

Okay okay so I have a complete build, and I think it’s solid. It’s a Focus Pointa based half-caster with mostly Ranger spells but some pulled from other lists and some Ranger spells left out. It’s got “strategies” that you choose from a list and get more of as you level, and “moves” that are...

I love Spider-Man Noir, and I love Nick Cage. This is very exciting.

And each would be even if the others were completely different in style. I do wish that the warforged looked more like wood and stone beings in armor than like robots, but I like them being sleeker and more…aesthetically not hideous. Noir and Pulp fantasy should have Art Deco or Art Nouveau...

The angel? Seems like they have a certain tragedy, overbearing nature, a story that could easily repeat itself forever in a horrifyingly tragic manner, etc. But it’s been a while since I read up on the plane so I could be way off.

Recently I and my wife had very visceral reactions to Sinners. One of the best films I’ve ever seen. Every beat hits just right, but everyone who has seen it knows what moments hits deepest, and it involves lots of people dancing while a main character performs. I cried a little. It was just...

I yelled lol It was a very good payoff.

So for Ranger-esque things. I named the tool feature “Hunter’s Strategies”, and added two options that suit the Ranger. -Voice of The Wild Hunt gives you Animal Handling rather than a tool, and you can communicate on a basic level with animals, and you always have find familiar prepared. You...

Agreed. I think that I’m gonna work on simplifying the tools and making sure that everything isn’t any more complex than say, Paladin, through level 3. Paladin has Fighting style, spellcasting, weapon mastery, channel divinity, divine smite, lay on hands, subclass. I think a little hunting...
