I wouldn't have minded if they had all of the Cleric and Wizard subclasses from 2014 PHB in 2024. They can have more than the other classes, as their core is genetic enough to cover multiple things. If I was Dungeon Dragons, I would have had 10 subclasses for each class in the PHB. I'm finding...

That seems like a perfectly reasonable addition. Free unarmed attack when you spend bardic inspiration, bonus action unarmed attack otherwise. I use true Strike with my dancer bard's quarterstaff, and then unarmed attacks on the side. Dancer bard with her own pole for pole vaulting is fun.

Woops! Well, I'll be sure to make more ecological considerations and add them to the thread so it's not wrong. Hah! I did love reading and article I found a long time ago trying to piece together a huge dragon's caloric needs, and thus their territory size needs.

Parallel World. The Spirit World is my mishmash of feywild, shadow, and elemental chaos stuff.

My own setting is a little humanocentric. I go with a basic "humans used to rule an empire that spanned the world", think far reaching like Greece, Rome, Mongolia, or Ottomans. The empire fractured because of reasons and war, but remnants of it still exist, such as new cultures of humans that...

Hey everybody. I've been fiddling with my setting for a long time; sometimes it's half of my time spent thinking about gaming. I've been approaching my world building from a more sci-fi angle, considering what things could have evolved from and what it does in the world or society. Without...

Balance between multiclass options, and also balance for my love of sorting things.

My wife loves playing charisma casters and her Warlock (Half-Elf noble, quit wizard studies and went to the woods to make a pact with a fey instead) was her most recent character. She says she wouldn't have wanted to play an Int Warlock. Choice of stat, like A5E, is beating Int, and Cha is...

Sense Motive, Spot, and Listen skills used Wisdom in 3E. I only played 2E through Baldur's Gate so I don't know how it was handled in 2E.

Dexterity would have to be To Hit and Strength would have to be Damage for all* weapon attacks. Bow power is based on strength. Even crossbows require strength to load (but that can be assisted with a winch). Heck, even guns need strength; recoil is probably a big problem if the gun is stronger...

I ran a level 5 to 12 campaign where I gave everyone Perception proficiency and treated it more like a saving throw/defense. My reasoning is skills should be things you actively choose to do, while saves are reflexive. (so searching is a skill check, but not getting surprised by an assassin is a...

If I could figure out how to split Dex into Dexterity and Agility, and split Wisdom into Willpower and Awareness, I would. Wis and Dex's importance to most suggests they could maybe do with a split. Then again, condensing the 6 stats into four also has promise. Str+Con would be neat, because...

I had a jar of powdered chicken bouillon base that had on its instructions "stir 1 tbsp into 1 cup of boiling water for a delicious beverage." I tried chicken tea one cold winter day, and it was nice. Now to caffinate it!

Twister! All I remember was its power was really really low so it hardly mattered.

Easy to do since gen 1 only had tornado or something.

I always wanted an Elementalist class, and since the Kineticist had some great ideas, I thought I'd start there. I had a 3E version that started with the Psionics Handbook's Pyrokineticist. Currently working on an Expanded version.

Same. I'm thinking one of all of the party members get bequeathed noble titles and are put in charge of a keep with a village. It was given to them primarily as a white elephant, meant to be a burden and target them for aggression for the other nobles, but being the players they'll make it their...

They don't just wreck the paper? That's a good endorsement of them!

Pretty sure they removed things that felt cultural from the species stats. Though I'd be perfectly fine with Aasimar knowing celestial and Tieflings knowing Abyssal or Infernal; the idea of the outsider kid speaking in tongues is real cool.
