I would not be surprised to see DT only on Constructs in the 2024 MM. Constructs are "creatures" but they're basically animated "objects." That might be the reason for that specific wording in the PHB.

Huh, I never really thought about this before. But, reading through the rules with a fine-tooth comb, I can't see any reason why it's not possible.

Honestly, when I read the thread title "Suggestions for a level 1 One-Shot," I thought you were looking for advice on a one-shot to run, not advice on a character to play. Of the three options you listed, I like the idea of the Barbarian the best. But, then, I've always been a fan of that...

My daughter likes to build castles and houses in Minecraft.

This is the same as in the book. In the book, this part instead says: "if the spell consumes its Material components, they are consumed only when you complete the scroll. The scroll’s spell uses your spell save DC and spell attack bonus."

I feel like Hunter's Mark, and thus Ranger damage output, could be fixed with a simple change to the spell (my changes in RED): Using a Higher-Level Spell Slot. Your Concentration and damage increase with a spell slot of level 3-4 (up to 8 hours, 2d6) or 5+ (up to 24 hours, 3d6).

I like that idea a lot. Maybe we could get stat blocks for Oberon, Titania, and Queen Mab (along with everyone else mentioned in The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke).

I chose Humanoid because I consider a Monstrosity to be a mutated version of a Beast, which is not what a Xvart looks like to me.

A funny thing about Tremorsense is that the Rules Glossary gives the full definition of it, while Dwarves only get the ability in regard to stone as part of their Stonecunning ability. I figured the full definition was included for a reason, so I looked through the Creature Stat Blocks in...

I would change the skills to Investigation and Stealth. Gardeners are adept at eavesdropping on conversations from outside open windows.

In my Street Urchin homebrew background, I gave them a Gaming Set for Tool Proficiency. I can see them doing some three-card monte to scam people out of their money so they can buy something to eat.

If you guys are referring to Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft, Chris Perkins is not the Project Lead, Art Director, or listed as any of the Writers. His sole credit, as far as I can tell, is in the Rules Development section. I’m not sure if that qualifies as “being the instigator of the...

I know I'm late to the party, but the way I see it: Bard = Spells + Bardic Inspiration Cleric = Spells + Channel Divinity Druid = Spells + Wild Shape Sorcerer = Spells + Metamagic Warlock = Spells + Pact Magic + Invocations Wizard = Spells + . . . more Spells So I voted Wizard as the simplest...

Does anyone know if there is somewhere to find a list of errata for those of us who only own the physical book (not the DDB version)?

Same for Moon Druids whose attacks used to become "magical" at level 6. Now they have the choice between doing normal or Radiant damage.

I have a Champion Fighter that I converted from UA7 to 2024, but I haven't had the chance to play him yet. Basically, when both my daughter's friends come over, we play the main campaign with the three of them as PCs and me as the DM. If only one of her friends comes over, we play one of the...

Phew, I think I instinctively followed these guidelines to a tee (even the recommendation to not include Martial weapons or armor). Except for Step 1, where things got a little uncertain for me. I wound up homebrewing 11 new backgrounds (based on some of the ones they left out from 2014) and...

I was wondering this myself. I really like the concept of Savage Attacker, but everyone says it's trash (I don't think it's that bad and my daughter has used it effectively in our old campaign). How would people change it to make it a more respectable pick?

Level Drain (or any other effect that decreases an ability score) because it's a PITA to have to recalculate all your stats because your modifier changed. It's one thing to do it at level up because those are permanent changes, not temporary adjustments.
