    D&D General I Just Want To Teleport and Stab Things

    It is, definitely, a cost. Too much of one... wibble wobbles hand It does seem too high for what you want, though, which is totally understandable. Personally I like it because the Cunning Action improvement of any Rogue Archetype is, essentially, a ribbon feature alongside their main option...

    D&D General I Just Want To Teleport and Stab Things

    Easy answer: Just give them an archetype that lets them ditch bonus action Disengage for bonus action Teleport limited to their speed. So if you use Boots of Striding and Springing or take the Dash action you can extend your teleport distance. Functionally it's practically the same thing. You...

    Level Up (A5E) Secrets of the Tome (A5E)

    I can tell you that neither of those classes are in the Secrets of the Tome. But I do have them in my back pocket. I'm also not -on- Secrets of the Tome. But I have thrown my hat in the ring and am hopeful. Hence the "Nothing... Yet" comment.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Yeah, even did a whole video on his facebook page about the 'cultural importance' of the old ironworks that he gutted for his museum. He sold or destroyed all the culturally important stuff and thinks the building itself should count.

    D&D General Lets Make a 5e 2024 Setting - World Structure

    Big continent, points of light, urban sprawl. World-hopping is kind of "Whatever" to me. Yeah it makes the fantasy "Bigger" but you can do world-hopping levels of variety of environments/enemies without bothering with portal magic. An Archipelago makes for a solid stand in for world-hopping...

    D&D General Wildly Diverse "Circus Troupe" Adventuring Parties

    So. coming in way late: The circus troupe happens because if you have a menu with 20 items on it and 5 people ordering you're unlikely to see multiple people pick the same item (unless it's particularly tasty) and there's just going to be menu items people don't pick. D&D has over 70 options...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    For those interested in an update on Lanasa: He's gone back to just being a kind of boring guy with moderately comfortable living, partial custody, and the occasional conspiracy theory about weather control or secret assassinations.

    Level Up (A5E) Sunset Riders Fantasy Western! (Campaign Setting thoughts)

    A year later, this is still a big thought in my head. But I doubt I can get it off the ground alone... So it might be best to break it into smaller, bite-sized bits. Perhaps with the 10 Minutes of Twilight adventure as an initial release?

    D&D General The Importance of a Good Calamity (Expanded Shower Thoughts)

    That one is a tough nut to crack. And it's -so- binary in it's structure that you really can't stop that feeling from happening. You could pull the Spring Dawning or Baldur's Gate 3 method and have everything go down in media res so that's the -plot- of the adventure/campaign, which gives your...

    D&D General The Importance of a Good Calamity (Expanded Shower Thoughts)

    So I'm in the shower this morning, using a scrubbing towel to abrade all the flesh off my bones in an attempt to feel softer and also because it's absolutely amazing at scratching the heck out of any itches I might have on my back, having setting thoughts. Specifically how a couple paid DMs I...

    3PP Release The Night of the Knife: A Campaign Quartet Adventure

    THAT IS SO CUTE I could die. And normally I hate halflings. And you are correct on the errors!

    3PP Release The Night of the Knife: A Campaign Quartet Adventure

    Brigandine is the armor. Looks like this! Early D&D designers saw it and just saw leather with some studs in it, and knowing that punks wore leather jackets with studs or spikes, assumed it was the same thing! But this is what it looks like on the inside: As far as the cloth/leather...
