    D&D 5E Chris Perkins Lays Down Some Lore: Who Was Vecna?

    I've always assumed Vecna was Corum Jhaelen Irsei, but I guess they wouldn't want to do that officially.

    D&D 5E Scroll of Protection and Ranged Weapons

    I would say not exactly. I would say it would stop the skeleton from shooting the arrow at the PC in the first place. The skeleton is trying to affect the PC by shooting an arrow at it, and that's what the scroll stops. This would be the same thing. It would prevent the skeleton from making the...

    I stand corrected. Okay, I'm sitting down, but I still admit I was wrong.

    Commentary thread for that “Describe your game in five words” thread.

    The first part was just my new player who is playing a neotoman (home-brew rat-man based on pack rats instead of brown rats) being attacked by a mimic disguised as a boat right as the current characters come around the corner. The side note comes from p. 84 of Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad...

    Ways of players getting Ability Scores - I require some help!

    I actually collect different ways to generate ability scores, at least in D&D. The list is here, if you want to look it over.

    D&D 5E Approaches to Magic Item Crafting

    I wrote up crafting rules for my game. Basically it is the same as crafting other items, but it requires access to a formula for the item and special ingredients. The special ingredients come from high CR monsters. You can get special alchemical containers and harvest those ingredients when you...

    The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

    Agreed. The first thing I thought of when seeing this is laser pointers and cats, which tends to make the cats neurotic.

    how does modern warfare look with flintstone level technology?

    A bunch of guys with stone axes. Guys on raptors. Even though I don't think they had raptors on the Flintstones, I can see a cartoon raptor in my head right now. Wind up a dinosaur to throw a rock. Pterodactyls, obviously.

    D&D 5E What fighting styles would you add?

    I'd add advanced versions of each fighting style, so that anyone who got a second fighting style could upgrade their current style instead.

    D&D 5E With Only 4 Ability Scores, How Would You Handle Spellcasting Abilities (+)

    I would go with Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, and Wisdom. It's a double split, two physical (str/dex) and two mental (int/wis); also two about power (str/wis) and two about finesse (dex/int). I think a bard would become an int caster, while warlock and sorcerer would be wis casters...

    The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

    I used to have an analog clock on the wall of my cubicle. The fun thing about analog clocks is that you can get ones that run backwards. It used to drive people nuts.

    As a downside to the eclipse, the birds around here freaked out about it. Guess on whose car they decided to void their bowels?

    Eh, went to the park and saw the eclipse. I thought all the kids running around and playing in the park was a better sight.

    Can You Go Home Again? +

    The short answer is you can't. You can't step into the same river twice. This doesn't mean you can't have fun playing the old games with the old people. It just means it won't be the same. So don't try to get back that same feeling, just try to have fun now.
