We are playing and will continue playing 5e. We are not using mordenkainens updates for races. So it’s mostly Tasha’s and what was before. I think our play time is less than many groups…with kids and kids sports and work and video game and conflicting schedules…I have had fewer than 12...

I saw something about his later days. People can be pretty gross. But for me, dad warpiglet puppet is greenlit by the porcine being himself!

For me, the biggest mistake with warlocks is being narratively rigid at the time of conception. In my group we describe our patron to the DM. We invent patrons…and no one bats and eye. The patron sometimes gets used to make complications or tasks for the party if they choose them...

I hate this. But it’s all about consent and the wishes of the deceased. For example, I asked my wife to have me preserved and placed in a chair in the basement. Wires attached tot he door are supposed to open my mouth and have me start to stand. Just to scare kids and people entering the...

I want to be lawful good. But I really trend N/LN if I am being honest. It a survival thing. I have too much sympathy at times and have to turn away and purposely say not my circus.

I have lurked and read a lot of this thread. And going back to the initial rant: If people trying to keep the ground connected to its roots is exhausting, I think it’s not less exhausting listening to tirades about how the game sucks and must change. If someone wants radical change, why not...

Come now! It’s a generalization! (And does not apply to all online posters, I assure you)

Hahaha not a fan of that crap

We did when we were kids. Waldo says yeah, “let’s play good guys” then proceeds to steal from the party or do violence to peasants. Or, the DM and I disagreed about LG paladins and prostitutes. As grown ups people are more relaxed, understand cultural issues more broadly. Just had not...

sometimes people have a tough history in gaming or other areas and struggle to not map that experience into the wider world. You see this clearly where someone says an uncommon thing is common or they overgeneralize. I find it best not to contradict their stated experience but to let people...

Same with grandpa buttermilk and cornbread…not for me. I will just take the cornbread!

Cornbread we make has zero sugar added. My kids like cornbread muffins which are sweet. Not me. I live near a Cracker Barrel…I am laying off the booze…eating healthier…and now all I can think about is biscuits and gravy and fried chicken.

Once again the ghouls come out to play. Gross.

I was going o write something up a while back but…laziness hit. If your read all 5e lore about warlocks, you will find much contradiction or more accurately proof of different perspectives on the reality of powers. 1. You can get warlock powers via feats, no patron required 2. There is a...

I have a lot of patience for people innocently getting a rule wrong. I appreciate people posting helpful things on a forum. I have less patience and appreciation for people volunteering rules advice when they are wrong or did not fill read the question. Nothing so annoying and leading other...

Had a lot of fun with it. My evil fat barbarian with a red beard was legendary. We did play drow at times but were often fugitives on the edge of populated lands and had full sunlight effects. I think one thing that was ponderous were some tacked on things like ability improvement for...

lawful neutral cleric of Wee Jas for the win

this is a holy sword…it can only be wielded by the pure of heart for full effect. This is an evil artifact. If good people use it or touch it curses them while evil people soak up the power. Without alignment how do we activate these tropes? Just let the dm decide and pass judgment on our...

Yep. And we tone it down when my kids are present but not the wives. I have seen some weird stuff at cons. For myself though I would excuse myself and leave the game unless the ticket was more than 5 bucks. Life is too short for weird crap. Who needs a raps scene in game? For example…if...

I have enjoyed 5e a lot. I enjoyed earlier editions a lot. There are a few changes I would advocate and enjoy moving forward. Bonus actions are now almost instinctive. We know when we can use them. Same with reactions. But there has to be a cleaner way to incorporate both in a more unified...
