    D&D General Blue on Blue (Goblins)

    As I mentioned in the other thread, 5e has some psionic goblins in the Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk adventure. They're not a playable species, but it wouldn't be hard to reverse engineer them. The psionic goblins in the book all have: Resistance to psychic damage Mental...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    “Through the Looking Glass” It’s fun to watch the cast play their mirror counterparts, and this one tugged on the heartstrings with respect to Ben and Jennifer. But … hoo boy, was Sisko quick to jump in the sack with mirror Dax! (And I presume mirror Kira.) “Improbable Cause” I love Bashir...

    D&D 5E (2024) Using Action Surge to cast spells in 2024

    That's because it's stated in the "Activating a Magic Item" section.

    D&D 5E (2024) How excited are you for the 2 upcoming Forgotten Realms books?

    Don't hold your breath! Chris Perkins said, when the new DMG first came out, that WotC wasn't planning to revisit Greyhawk any time soon. He deliberately designed the version that's in the new DMG as a standalone thing for DMs to make their own. Now, of course, CP has left WotC, so that may...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    I get what they were going for - a suspenseful episode where Bashir has to figure out what's going on as he rapidly ages and a "monster" hunts parts of his mind, etc. It was a neat idea. Just not executed as well as it could have been.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    I found "Distant Voices" a bit boring ... I ended up watching it on 1.25 speed just to get through it faster. The bits between Garak (or "Garak") and Bashir were great. The whole "vain Dr Bashir is worried about getting old so let's age him rapidly to put things in perspective for him" was a...

    D&D General Goblins and Psionics.

    The psionic goblins known as blues date back to 3e. (They first appeared in 2001's Psionics Handbook.)

    D&D General Goblins and Psionics.

    There are psionic goblins in The Shattered Obelisk, but they aren't blue!

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    Finally got around to watching “Visionary”. Good episode, but yeah, it’s pretty wild to think the OG O’Brien is dead and this guy is a replacement from 3.5 hours into the future!

    D&D 5E (2024) Thoughts on Infinite Staircase?

    Sure, but it depends on when they last took one. They might have to wait the better part of a day before they can take another. I'm not too fussed about that aspect of the mummy lord. It's more everything else. Besides, if the PCs rescue Uma from the ghasts, she tells them that she and "her...

    D&D 5E (2024) Thoughts on Infinite Staircase?

    Not if they've taken a beating themselves and retreat to take a rest.

    D&D 5E (2024) Thoughts on Infinite Staircase?

    The mummy lord is in the basic rules, so I can repost the full statblock here: Sure. Not with him in the gauntlet chamber. There's Munafik, who's more of an undead sorcerer than a mummy lord in the original, plus the Chabang Men, the PC mirror images, the magical wall of fire (which is...

    D&D 5E (2024) Thoughts on Infinite Staircase?

    So you reckon do that instead of making him a fully-fledged mummy lord? FWIW my PCs all have resistance to psychic damage from a wish they made in Beyond the Crystal Cave, so the full mummy lord's Dreadful Glare attack won't be as potent against them as it normally would. Just looked at the...

    Witcher change up?

    I've only watched the first season. You guys are making it sound like I made the right decision not to bother watching the rest.

    Genre Discussion: Cyberpunk

    Eh? Westworld S3 is nothing like Moonraker! ;) I enjoyed it well enough. It was S4 that left me scratching my head. I am disappointed they didn't get to finish the series, though. I'd say it was pretty cyberpunkish. Things like the shirt with different words on it that light up depending on...
