A sigh was heard coming from a ceiling corner on the far side of the room. Long the record holder for overly long, odd terms, the spirit of Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious recognized that a new champion had emerged. Intra-extra-ultra-mantra-meta-mini-maxi-micro dicota-clasmic existentialism...

Oops! I missed the intended meaning of your comment.

Yes, it does. As Jeremy Crawford has stated time and time again (most often in Sage Advice), if a description (whether of a rule, a spell, a feature, etc.) includes something, it specifically states it in that description. Critical failures are not mentioned in the core rules, therefore, they...

Stuart Wieck should have had more years of life; his family and friends should have had more time with him. This came decades too soon. My heart goes out to them.

Think "Arms Race". History is one long line of weapon design improvements. The object is always to seek an advantage over one's enemies. Every weapon has its strengths and weaknesses, and its moment in time. It also has the potential, if not already realized, of being rendered relatively...

The warfare history network link Pranqstr provided above mentioned the use of the "sling stick", which provided greater range, and could also be used as a melee weapon. Time to import the kender's "hoop-stick" from Dragonlance/Krynn to Faerun, hmmm?

"Free RPG Day isn't perfect. For an event that is now ten years old, it should really have much better market penetration than it does. Some of this can likely be put upon the shoulders of the "marketing" from the Free RPG Day organization, while some can be put onto individual game store...

He is the material component, so this makes sense.

This. Ooo-oh, yea-ah. This. I laugh, but I love this idea. Spring this one on your players. That isn't a mere Ring of Mind Shielding, it's a unique artifact, the Ring of the GeoLich.

Uh-oh.

Every DM's dilemma - what to do when the party makes a choice you've got no plans for.

I see what you did there. Puts a different spin on the concept of a "PC Party". Well, eventually, the revelry ended and the bar-tabs paid ... Barbarian 20gp Bard 22gp Cleric 19gp Druid 19gp Fighter 19gp Monk 19gp Ranger 19gp Rogue 21gp Sorcerer 19gp Tavernkeeper 17gp Warlock 17gp Wizard 17gp...

Look at the concepts for creating a warforged. Some origins for that race say that to activate a warforged's body, a soul must be infused to it. Nothing 5e-official has come out yet for the warforged race, other than one Unearthed Arcana article. There has been at least one offering on the...

Taking the long view, RPGs had their genesis in war games in which fighters are the only "class". It's fitting that the fighter won. A bit of whimsy: imagine this thread were a story-board for a graphic book or a movie and each poster described the actions in their respective posts. It would...

This was so much fun - my thanks to everyone who contributed!

Unfortunately for all of us who hold reservations about the qualifications of the paladin, this is starting to look like there may be some divine intervention involved ...

Warped-mind report: Oh, dear. The allusion to the Wizard of Oz in that phrase above threw the idea up into my imagination the notion of a small dog named "Toto" as an Otherworldy Patron. A small, yapping patron. This is not good.

At least it's lasting longer than an amusement park ride - without making me queasy!

Bard 7 Fighter 11 -2 = 9 Paladin 6 Rogue 9 +1 = 10 Warlock 5 Wizard 6 Uh-unh, @DaviMMS. Although, I admit my rogue getting advantage against your fighter ain't happening in this arena, so I couldn't use my Sneak Attack damage dice.

I have a bone to pick with ENWorld. Having to wait 3 minutes to click the Laugh icon again ain't easy with a thread that's making me laugh this much!
