    What makes Arthurian fantasy its own genre, different from more traditional D&D-ish medieval fantasy? What are some Arthurian-style plots?

    King of Atlantis so king of Camelot makes sense to me. Never seen him as leader of the Justice League though.

    What makes Arthurian fantasy its own genre, different from more traditional D&D-ish medieval fantasy? What are some Arthurian-style plots?

    Lots of ways to go with Arthurian themes. For Sir Clark I'd probably go with something more emphasizing goodness.

    D&D 5E (2024) What’s the difference between sorcerers, warlocks, and wizards?

    Anything where magic/psychic abilities are in born and magic users are feared. Wheel of time comes to mind. There is the Tower which teaches skill but the power is just in certain people and not others to start. The White Cloaks hunt down those with the power. So some versions of Merlin are he...

    Morality of mind control…

    The last time I used charm person as a good PC I used it to interrogate bad guys instead of intimidation. I was really sick of threats of torture coming from other (not good) PCs. I remember using it on a guard and taking him out to lunch/buy drinks at a bar off duty to get him to chat and...

    Best published superhero adventure?

    The drawback of temporarily licensed titles. I always wanted the old DC Magic, Watchmen, and Whos Who sourcebooks. I would like to get PDFs of old Doctor Who, MERP, The Willow Sourcebook, Thieves World, and others as well.

    In a fantasy world filled with magic and miraculous beings, will the religious concepts of the locals be completely different from the human of Earth?

    I think it is going to vary a lot based on the actual cosmology, the specific magics available, the specific gods involved, and the history of the world and its cultures. D&D afterlife varies - in 4e the gods of knowledge and death do not know what happens to souls after they leave their period...

    D&D 5E (2024) What’s the difference between sorcerers, warlocks, and wizards?

    I've done the reverse. :) I played a (pathfinder 1e) sorcerer with the stars (mythos) bloodline where his noble family generations earlier had engineered a mythos encounter/event thing in their ancestral hall to develop a sorcerous bloodline among them.

    TSR Why would anyone WANT to play 1e?

    I answered in the original thread straight, answering the title question, giving reasons to play 1e.

    D&D 5E (2024) What’s the difference between sorcerers, warlocks, and wizards?

    It doesn't give you magical knowledge, it gives you magical power. Anybody can make a pact, it does not require any study or learning or work the way wizardry does. Anybody can make a pact, not everybody is born with magical power. You could narratively say a pact was how you gained sorcerous...

    D&D 5E (2024) What’s the difference between sorcerers, warlocks, and wizards?

    Harry Potter Wizards are D&D sorcerers like Jedi are, they just have a school. Just like the X-Men of born mutants have a school.

    D&D 5E (2024) What’s the difference between sorcerers, warlocks, and wizards?

    The big thing to me is the story elements. Sorcerers are inborn natural magicians doing a few things but doing them with power and some natural bending to make those things go different ways. This works also conceptually as the same concept as monsters with inborn magic like dragons. The...

    TSR Why would anyone WANT to play 1e?

    Gygax did provide a sort of example 1e shop that sells curing potions in the Temple of Elemental Evil. In the ne'er do well town of Nulb there is Mother Screng's Herb shop which has three jars of Keoghtum's ointment she will explicitly sell to good parties after they prove themselves going into...
