    How do you handle jewelry and valuable art as a GM?

    I mostly blow it over and just give out the GP value. Then it is assumed they sell it off in town first chance they get. I try to penalize the PCs for destroying things for the parts. If there is a statue with gems I say is worth 1000gp and the PCs choose to break it up for parts, they might...

    Kickstarter pre-launch followers vs total funded

    Is there any worth adding data from post sales of a product. Those sales not involved in the KS, but purchased the product within one year after, or two years? There might be something in profit or type of release and pricepoint.

    Which summer movies are you looking forward most to?

    I'm hoping Fantastic 4 is good. They could use a hit.

    Worlds of Design: Playing Favorites

    I basically only play D&D, at least now-a-days. It was and is the favorite. But then it changes with each edition, so while the basics are the same game, the details change over time. I would still call it the same game.

    D&D General Categories of foes

    I was trying to grasp the concept and came up with riders. Monsters that work with animals as mounts such as goblins and worgs. The module with orcs and axbeaks. Even dragons act as mounts in some games like Dragonlance (DL).

    [Netflix] Dept Q (NO SPOILERS)

    I watched the first one and found it interesting enough that I'll watch some more. This weekend is the US Open golf, so more likely next week.

    D&D (2024) Who has sign language?

    Wouldn't each language have its own sign language? It would be easier to just have an universal one like 'common', but makes sense that dwarves and elves would develop their own styles.

    Army hand and arm signals. 30 seconds before jumping out.

    D&D General What is something you did "just for one campaign" that now your players demand.

    I made a map for each PC back in 3e, but I photocopied it and added certain details tailored to each PC. The players all thought they had the same map for a while until they were at a lake and the wizard mentioned a town in the lake that is located under the water. The others were all, I don't...

    D&D General You Don’t Have To Leave Wolfy Behind... In 'Pets & Sidekicks' Your Companions Level Up With You!

    Looks cool and something needed for many players. My last pet that I gave out was more a magic item. It is a skeleton cat that could blow up like a shatter spell and reform 10 minutes later. It mostly does cat things and makes silly roleplay moments, but once in a while comes in handy or is...

    D&D (2024) Martials: damage scaling like cantrips?

    Is the other way to ask the question to say, should cantrips scale at all? And would this stay on-par with martials? And are/should cantrips be the go-to above level 5? I do not know the answer, I'm not a math person as well. It had felt to me that cantrips at 5th and 11th level seem to...

    D&D General Liquids in Bag of Holding or Portable Hole?

    But is the contents of the fridge were stored in an ice cave far away and you open the fridge and are allowed to magically reach in for something- would knocking over the fridge do anything to the contents in the ice cave? Or, is the fridge just larger on the inside and somehow shrinks stuff...

    D&D General D&D Pinball Machine in Action

    No we trained them to use their flippers. Better than some people. It was the 60s. At least he didn't use dolphins.

    D&D pick up lines

    @Spencer the DM welcome to the site. It is an old thread, but one not seen by many that visit here so no problem. I wonder if now 23 years later, this thread is seen more as a problem to make comments on/in. I have no problem making crude punnies, but think some might in today's society.
