    D&D General Why Were the Dragon and Dungeon Magazines Discontinued?

    Have you checked out ENworld's En5ider? Might scratch the same itch, although it comes out as individual articles.

    D&D General Alternate Initiative Concept: "Y'all figure it out"

    Wow, so the PCs can never be caught off guard, ever? I don't want to shut down that much potential story.

    D&D General Palace of the Silver Princess orange cover stating bid $1 now $4000.

    Do you mean the cover art? I wouldn't call that "lovingly fondling." If you're thinking of the "Illusion of the Decapus" illustration, it's pretty tame (though it was the cause of some hand-wringing at the time), and also, you don't actually see the decapus in it.

    D&D General Palace of the Silver Princess orange cover stating bid $1 now $4000.

    You more likely ran the reworked adventure with the green cover. It's much easier to find.

    D&D General Alternate Stats for Initiative [+]

    How about this: Decouple it from stats entirely. Make it a skill that can be trained by anyone. Expertise and Jack of All Trades may apply. Maybe add a homebrewed "improved initiative" feat for extra bonuses. (I haven't read the whole thread, so apologies if this has already been suggested.)...

    D&D 5E (2024) Uncommon items - actually common?

    I kinda feel like "uncommon" is more of a guideline to how NPCs should react to these items, rather than how many PCs should expect to get them. Like, "Ooh, you don't see those every day!"

    D&D 5E (2024) Will we see another Magic: The Gathering setting in Duskmourn?

    Still, how many MtG-based horror settings can D&D realistically sustain in terms of official publications?

    D&D 5E (2024) Will we see another Magic: The Gathering setting in Duskmourn?

    Wouldn't there be too much overlap with Innistrad, which already has a D&D conversion?

    D&D 5E (2014) So, I kind of want to stay with 2014 rules. What are my longterm options?

    Why houserule 2024 instead of just keeping 2014, as the OP plans to do?

    Ravenloft: Heir of Strahd Cover, Synopsis Revealed

    Oh, that's one of the party? I thought it was a mount!

    Ravenloft: Heir of Strahd Cover, Synopsis Revealed

    But ... but the characters apart from the token human are an orc, a tiefling, and a drow! That's DARK and EDGY!

    D&D General Making a Pizza in a Fantasy world.

    The antecedents of pizza go back to ancient Rome, so I don't have a problem with pizza in a fantasy world.

    The Legend of Vox Machina Renewed for Fourth Season

    They did it, and they ruined it. Carnival Row broke my heart.

    D&D General wait what is arcane magic anyway?

    Not if they're singers.

    D&D 5E (2024) Suggestions for level 1 one-shot.

    Another vote for the barbarian. Sounds like you have a strong personality concept, which is important because you can "hit the ground running" in roleplay terms. The warlock sounds like a fun character for a longer campaign, where you could get more use out of your "pokemon."

    D&D 5E (2014) One shot for new dm

    I'm a bit late to the party, but: the Filbar setting has a bunch of free scenarios, including some that are explicitly designed for two PCs. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher/5839/adventures-in-filbar Pay special attention to the adventures whose titles start with "OP"--they are...
