    Sell Me On WotBS / Zeitgeist

    I managed to run my group all the way through Zeitgeist (though with an accelerated epic tier that was basically just the most significant combats and narrating the rest due to needing to wrap things up before a move). I'd definitely recommend it to others. It has a strong plot with NPCs that...

    D&D 5E (2014) First literary concept of the "Adventuring Party"?

    I wouldn't have quite thought of it in these terms, but as close as some other suggestions would be the Fianna from Irish folklore and the 12 peers of Charlemagne (which was also the origin of Paladins)

    D&D 5E (2014) Has anyone else expanded on attunement in their campaigns?

    News Digest: Empyrea Canceled, New Stranger Things Game, Warhammer 40K Comics, and more!

    It was not an abstract discussion, but a report of an actual event including a picture of the person who did the groping to help identify who the person was. Also questioning if something was sexual assault or groping is the wrong question since groping would be a form of sexual assault.

    D&D 5E (2014) Races of Eberron: Goliath?

    Iserith beat me to the quote I vaguely remembered, so I'll have to settle for posting a link to the source, which was a comment in a longer post about his thoughts in general about unusual races in Eberron

    ZEITGEIST Player's Guide (Part One: Characters) [5E]

    The most significant part of the Devas' previous lifetimes is creating a connection to a character that has been alive for 500 years due to divine energy. It probably wouldn't hurt if you just wanting to have an Aasimar and say they've effectively become immortal. There is one major NPC Deva...
