    D&D 5E (2014) "Fixing" electrum pieces - looking for a player's perspective

    As a player I'd be fine with 100 sp = 10 ep = 1 gp, but I'd be curious why equipment prices would switch from gp to ep. Wouldn't that make equipment ⅒ the normal price, or make gold pieces the new platinum pieces? I agree with the Jester, I like the idea of using non-metric exchange rates. Like...

    What happens to copper pieces? Are they eliminated or does 1,000 cp = 1gp?

    D&D 5E (2014) Xvart: Humanoid or Monstrosity?

    Maybe, like a clay golem, they're constructs, then they become monstrosities when they get that breath of life. Finally they become humanoids when they gain a little knowledge about good and evil.

    D&D 5E (2014) Xvart: Humanoid or Monstrosity?

    Oh dear, that will not do. I guess the curse will just have to be a smart curse (Can you polymorph an autognome into a hippopotamus? I don't see why not.) What is MoM and what sources do these other races come from? I don't see them in my application. Thanks.

    D&D 5E (2014) Xvart: Humanoid or Monstrosity?

    I wrote an adventure before the publication of the Monsters of the Multiverse and now I'm updating it. There is a curse in the adventure that only affects humanoids. I need xvarts to be humanoids and boggles to be fey. I also need nilbogs to be humanoid. I guess I'll just be sticking with the...

    D&D General What music do you use for your games?

    I love music in the background during a season. I like to play Basil Paledrus' score to Conan the Barbarian. However, I find that there are at least a one or two players who don't like music at the table. And they will usually speak up about it.

    D&D 5E (2024) Can I get Armor of Agathys without being a Warlock?

    Oh, I see. The intention is to make it very challenging to find the perfect mix of feats, classes, items, and spells to get near permanent, rechargeable Armor of Agathys then. Kudos to the development team for creating this exciting puzzle for us to solve. I can't wait to see it in action at...

    D&D 5E (2024) Can I get Armor of Agathys without being a Warlock?

    Is this the new rules exploit? I read something earlier about Armor of Agathys being rechargeable due to a change in language regarding temporary hot points.
