    D&D 5E (2014) Kobolds are also from the Feywild now?

    And meanwhile, in Japan, Kobolds are just Gnolls or Werewolves. :p Who is this Crawford, anyway? Cindy Crawford writes D&D now? :D 4E had lore? More like a mishmash of nonsense. -"Hey let's lump everything from Demons to Yugoloths to Limbo to the Elemental planes into this soup we call...

    D&D 5E (2014) Kobolds are also from the Feywild now?

    It's annoying enough that they are retconning Goblinoids to be from the Feywild, but if they do that to Kobolds... Kurtulmak will be pissed. The german Kobolds with their stone affinity and mining and stuff... they are basically the D&D Korreds, really. And the more modern Kobolds (like...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mordenkainen Presents Monsters of the Multiverse: An In-Depth Review

    Less than Drow? LOL, don't joke. Zuggtmoy has the least HP of all Demon Lords, and even she has 304 (32d10+128). The strongest Drow is the Matron Mother and she has 262 (35d8+105). It seems to me that this reviewer oddly, was unaware that Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes exists, and that this book...

    D&D 5E (2014) Full List of Monsters in Mordenkainen Presents Monsters of the Multiverse

    "Yeah Hound" has got to be the best typo ever. The elite version must called "Oh Yeah Hound" :D (It should be Yeth Hound)

    D&D 5E (2014) Don't play "stupid" characters. It is ableist.

    I think having an intelligence of 8 means you are of average intelligence - your everyday human on Earth today. Most humans would have an intelligence score of 8-10. A Wizard with an intelligence of 16-18 is basically considered a genius. Scores above 20 are something that Ancient Dragons...

    D&D 5E (2014) Strixhaven: Orientation

    I guess the next book has to be a good one, given the current ratio - Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft was good, Witchlight was a chore to read, Fizban's Treasury of Dragons was super fun and informative, and this looks like another stinker. Weird how both D&D and Pathfinder are churning out...

    D&D 5E (2014) New Errata & Advice For D&D Issued

    All this mess around unarmed strikes... Maybe we should just go back to the rules where only monks and specialist fighter subclasses could use them? I mean generally you would not want to use such a weak attack anyway, unless you are stripped of your weapons. Monstrous races still have their...

    D&D 3.x Monsters in the Miniatures Handbook

    Interesting stuff, thanks! I always wondered back then - never knowing this handbook existed - where these creatures came from. Pretty cool how some of them, like the Nothic, became mainstays in 5E.

    D&D 5E (2014) New Statblocks for D&D's Kobolds

    This is just beyond amazing. I do hope we get a mini for this, because it is hilarious and cute. I wonder if they just wanted to get into the tavern for a drink, hence all the disguise. "You must be this tall to enter" :D "ZOINKS Scoob! The Mad Wizard of the Arcane Brotherhood was actually...

    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Confirms Horror-themed Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Nice! The bottom one looks like the Crag Cat, and the one above we know is the Tomb Tapper... but what could be that first one? Looks like a Korred, maybe? But we already have one of those from a prior set. There is a character (who looks like some mangy Werewolf or Jackalwere) called Tekeli-li...

    D&D General WotC’s Official Announcement About Diversity, Races, and D&D

    Great post. Indeed, why don't Duergar or Goblins get a hero character like Drizzt? Duergar are basically victims of the Illithid, same as the Gith, and feel (arguably rightfully) betrayed by their pantheon. At least Beholders are kinda "humanized" with Xanathar who while still being basically a...

    D&D General WotC’s Official Announcement About Diversity, Races, and D&D

    Care to elaborate? 'cause I can't see how that would NOT be the next step they take. It's logical. And just after we got a great insight into Drow and how Lolth betrayed Correllon in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes. What the heck are sensitivity readers? Is this basically a new form of censorship...

    D&D General WotC’s Official Announcement About Diversity, Races, and D&D

    I am curious why exactly Drow and Orcs are the races that are supposedly the most "racially profiled" in the Realms? What about Goblins? Heck, what about Gnolls? I was actually quite annoyed about the 5E portrayal of Gnolls, where now they are demon-spawn of Yeenoghu, created from hyenas who...

    D&D 5E (2014) Acquisitions Incorporated Takes Over D&D: A Review

    I heard about this Aquisitions Incorporated for ages and only looked up what they are when they got on the Neverwinter MMO too. Man, this is just a bunch of unfunny youtubers. Boggles the mind why they have such a following, or why this idea even warrants a book. It's just an organization for...

    RAGE OF DEMONS Minis From WizKids

    Well, EXCUUUUUSE ME for daring to post you guys information on the new minis... How dare I approach this thread when I am not a fan of the newest edition that'll probably last as many years as 4E did, or less ;)

    RAGE OF DEMONS Minis From WizKids

    I don't use Attack Wing. I use the minis to represent whatever I WANT them to represent. Why can't you do the same? You are using the minis for the boosters, not Attack Wing - use those as young adult dragons. Officially, no there is no such indication - check the bases, it just says "Green...
