    D&D 5E (2014) What If the players lost every adventure path so far in the realms?

    Under this scenario, see Athas for an idea of Toril's future. :-S

    You haven't heard of knomes? Kender-Gnome cross. Who needs Cthulhu? This is the stuff of nightmares.

    Yeah, I've got the occasional problem with waxing all seriously after reading a humorous bit. Thanks for the return to reality. By the way, decades ago, my mother took a course in Irish Gaelic and was told after the class that our family name, "Shannon", derives from an old I.G. word for "fox"...

    Aren't all RPGs imitations, grotesque or otherwise? From birth, we learn through imitation. Our limited, very human brains can only contain an amount of information that is just a minuscule piece of the total data set of a species that speaks over 7,000 different languages, worships a lot of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone else think the Bard concept is just silly?

    OK. Now I'm trying to come up with a pun - and perhaps a new cantrip - that would put the fear of death in its target. Casting Time: 1 action. Range: Self (5-foot radius) Components: V Duration: 1 round You mutter a quick imprecation when you cast this cantrip, touching the emotional heart of...

    https://1d4chan.org/wiki/List_of_D%26D_PC_Races I added the new races and variants from the Midgard Heroes for 5th Edition and Southlands Heroes for 5th Edition to the wiki: Midgard Alseid Centaur, Midgard Dragonkin Gearforged Ghoul, Darakhul Kobold, Midgard Minotaur, Midgard Ravenfolk...

    A cantrip that gets you unfriended by the universe? That's harsh. ;)

    I'd laugh with your posting, but I'm too busy looking for my brown pants. What is that thing - Grendel's mean step-brother?

    ... which leads to this thought: the existence of half-elves and half-orcs demonstrates that elves and orcs are one species with humans, much as earlier modern humans crossbred with Denisovians and Neandertals. [For the sake of this commentary, let's ignore the fact that all the races except...

    So, the images you use to represent your Carnifex are kind of like pictures of different breeds of dogs. Astounding diversity, but they're all the same species.

    Idk, but if you can't find it please recreate it to the best of your memory. And please include a subrace with wings.

    Just a 3e thing? I guess that's why no one is commenting on this thread, eh? One person's weed is another person's flower.

    As a PC, maybe. Not my favorite sagittaurean* race. I am a big fan of wemics and BBQ, however, and since wemic-and-centaur pretty much equal predator-and-prey in my mind, two sets of ribs has a certain appeal. *Sagittaurean is an archaic term for creatures such as centaurs and wemics. Chaucer...

    Unearthed Arcana Your current use of Unearthed Arcana material

    I'm big on letting my players play-test UA material, and also some 3PP options upon my approval. The problem a lot of us have is that there just isn't enough available time to play as often as our respective Inner-Gamers would like. I'm not religious, so this is strictly wishful thinking: I...

    D&D 5E (2014) Generating Player Characters

    Most of the comments address methods of generating ability scores. As of the moment, only @TallIan has commented on the topic of having a Session 0. He raised a salient point in that as one moves deeper into adulthood, other responsibilities tend to limit the time available to play. If it's...
