I wonder what was the thought process behind giving dragon born fewer perks. They are not the norm in my game. They are rarely seen, as are Half-orcs, tieflings and Half-elves. All dragon born, tieflings and half-orcs are treated with various forms of fear and fascination. Some are drawn to...

In our group of 6 we have 4 PHB, 2 Monster Manuals and one DMG. Also HotDQ and TRoT.

A conversation recently came up at my table about the imbalance in the races in 5e. My immediate response was, "there has always been imbalance in characters in D&D. Elves are the golden child of the system." They spoke about the imbalance amongst all the races. Why do half-orcs get so many...

Thanks everyone for so much feedback. Some details: The group was resting at camp during late morning and had left their horses grazing near some trees and they knew there was forest very near by. They noticed three humanoids accompanied by four spiders taking their horses away. When the PCs...

I am a new DM, but have played for many years 2e, and recently Pathfinder. So, being new, I sometimes don't give enough detail to my players about the goings on (something I am trying to get better at, I know its a flaw). I am playing with a group that, for the most part, have been playing...
