I play it the Eberron way, which Dragon Age also does very well: Such entities may be understood as Good or Evil, but that perspective is influenced by political history and allegiance. Most entities, tragically, see themselves as being the height of virtue. The core of good fiction and good...

Charming! Good luck amping your products.👍 -edited-

That sounds about right! Possibly extending to folks under their direct supervision. This naturally leads to rolling on Sidewise fast-travel, which feels right,

Very neat! Do Fey creatures or folks raised in eladrin culture have any benefit when traveling through Twilight Paths?

Backgrounds feature a connection, which is comprable to a bond. Destinies include a motivation, which is comprable to an ideal. The backgrounds also feature a heirloom which is sort of a tangible version of both. Personality traits and flaws are basic characterization. I imagine players of a5e...

Any religious term for an otherwise secular warrior gets a hard no from me. Appropriating the Eastern monastic tradition was inappropriate and misleading, and that would be the same with Western monasticism too. That said, I really like all the brainstorming in this thread. Many folks have...

That's a strange way of spelling "I made a basic and commonsense character design choice."

Bingo

That's not what that means edit pantheism is equating Divinity with existence itself I think the point you are trying to make is that dungeons & dragons is pantheon centered, which you are righ about

I'm not sure how a cleric isn't any of those things. Doesn't this have a bit more to do with how literalistic or humanistic the player is being about the lore? edit: Doesn't this also have to do with how expansive or restrictive one's definition of "ministry" is? Blacksmithing is a form of...

MM - presumably yes. But I imagine that it wouldn't be desirable in all cases, and that an attempt at spreading your faith in a particularly inhospitable situation might actually draw in Town guard and detectives assigned to suppress your religious movement Ordination - not all clerics are...

Hi I'm Josh, I'm one of the two lead writers on the cleric. I would like to point out that the flavor text explicitly says that clerics do not have to be a member of a Western-style religious hierarchy. You can be an independent mystic, and you can even technically be an atheist. There are...

@callmetama Thanks for your interest! Please @Mr.Underhill I'm sending you a message!

Hi everyone! My name is Josh and I'm a pro DM now taking clients for online games. Already-formed groups are preferred, but individual inquirers are welcome. I have been a DM for 15 years and I am a freelance writer/designer for the game. I'm also a lead designer for Level Up: Advanced Fifth...

I can't say for sure, but if it were me, a character applying both their Performance skill and their Cultural Knowledge skill at the same time in order to really impress the locals with your cross-cultural literacy / apprication for local customs (or even Deception/Disguise Kit + Local Knowledge...

I know Morrus already gave us a warning in the conversation, but if I can say one thing about this (which I hope will be nearly the last word, otherwise I will delete the comment). I know the people who worked on this background, and they understand where you're coming from and put a lot of...

The class is backwards compatible with all existing 5e druid circles. The team has not yet written their archetypes. This is a test for the base class.

Well I for one hate the Grayhawk imposed schools of magic, and I'd really rather just stick to the six elements thank you. (But I'm not joking)

What does it look like for a combat maneuver system not to present as Wuxia?

Thank you Haldrik. I wrote this section, and the "response to immortality" line is the closest to my heart. I think everything you said about it is spot on, and I hope it is helpful for you and others for RPing elves--and for RL meditations as well. :)
