    Now You Can Play With Vin Diesel's WITCH HUNTER Class!

    The profane soul order is pretty close to my 4e avenger character concept (he multiclassed into wizard and was dabbling in arcane magic in an attempt to learn the magic of his enemies in order to fight them more effectively). I wonder how hard it would be to create a new order that is purely...

    D&D 5E (2014) Could we do with one more skill?

    I added an Engineering skill for a slightly more steampunk game to cover exactly those sort of areas. It's important to make sure it can stand on its own and it doesn't devalue any other skills.

    D&D 5E (2014) What's unique about the Sword Coast North?

    If you can get a hold of copies of Volo's Guides to the Sword Coast and Volo's Guide to the North, do so. They are full of scads of roleplaying hooks. They're technically 2e, but they're nearly edition-neutral. They detail the sort of small-time players and places that can be put in any time...

    D&D 5E (2014) A full 5e Warlord class (WIP)

    Thanks guys. I intend to put some more work in this weekend, doctorbadwolf: I'll have to think about how that would work. Maybe a stratagem that lets you convert an inspiring word use into a nice defensive buff of some kind? Maybe just an option to sub it out for such a benefit.

    Gale Force 9 Releases Out of the Abyss DM Screen & New Archetype Decks

    Is there a physical difference in the packaging of the new and old versions of the spell card decks? If I see some at my LGS I'd like to make sure I'm getting the new versions.

    D&D 5E (2014) I think people want the Ranger changed for the wrong reasons.

    First of all, I don't think there's too many people dissatisfied with the hunter, other than the problem of Hunter's Mark's fragility. For the beastmaster, the sheer clunkiness of making the beast take your action is a dealbreaker for me (same reason I wasn't too fond of the 4e version). So...

    D&D 5E (2014) A full 5e Warlord class (WIP)

    Since it's unlikely there will be an official warlord class anytime soon (because reasons), I've been working on my own. It's an attempt to retain the flavor of the 4e class while being conscious of 5e balance, including limited in-combat healing and the expectation that the class be usable...

    Here's That SCAG Table of Contents!

    That class section is such a tease. Wish it listed the subclasses.

    D&D 5E (2014) Char Ops forums: Something I wish hadn't come over.

    Well we've heard from the Real Roleplayers and the Munchkins. Do the Real Men and the Loonies have anything to add? (I kid)

    D&D 5E (2014) Can someone please summarize Out of the Abyss for me?

    How much info is there on Gauntlgrym? My current (4e) campaign has, as one of its main goals, rediscovering and clearing it.

    D&D 5E (2014) DOUBLE XP WEEKEND!!!

    Maybe I should try out microtransactions in my game. $1 per 100g, $10 for basic magic items, $25 for a level-up, $50 for an extra life, the list goes on and on. I'm sure that would go over well.

    Wand of Viscid Globs: Straight Out of Out of The Abyss!

    Disappointing that this made it through QC as-is.

    D&D 5E (2014) doing more with inspiration

    I've been using prop Campaign Coins for inspiration and luck (custom stat). I also allow inspiration to be spent to "do something cool" which can take a lot of different forms and it's always adjudicated on-the-fly.

    D&D 5E (2014) Surprise underrated abilities

    Assuming the caster can catch all the opponents in a 20' cube and they all fail their dexterity saves, at least.

    D&D 5E (2014) Help needed to create 5e character sheet

    For those curious, I've attached an Inkscape sheet I've been working on which has a houserule Luck score. It's fairly utilitarian, but I've never been a fan of ornate sheets. (The Inkscape .SVG vector file is zipped since ENWorld doesn't accept them as attachments.)

    D&D 5E (2014) Help needed to create 5e character sheet

    Seconding Inkscape. It's free, but there's a bit of a learning curve if you're not familiar with it.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D without the Cleric

    Warlo... oh wait, wrong forum. :blush:

    D&D 5E (2014) Is "Mystic" a bad class name?

    Put me down as someone who liked the pseudoscience of D&D psionics. To me, this feels like an attempt just to make it another flavor of magic (even though I know that's not really the intent).
