    D&D 5E Do you allow flighted Player characters to carry other Player characters?

    If the flying character is doing it under their own power (Wings) then they can carry another creature based on carrying capacity. The carrier cannot do combat because their hands are occupied unless they're casting V only spells. If they're under the Fly spell, no. The spell is what's lifting...

    D&D 5E Couple new Ideas, gauging interest

    My big thought on Chorus spells was simple: You don't have to align your turn between casters, you just have to decide to be a willing spell component. You're just like "Yup. I'm in" and it works. Same with partner.

    D&D (2024) It Is 2025 And Save Or Suck Spells Still Suck (the fun out of the game)

    Eh... As a designer, I'm of two minds about it. 1) Save or Suck spells have to exist in order to fulfill the mandates of the fantasy that inspires D&D and other TTRPGs. Whether it's charming, domination, paralysis, dancing, or whatever else, there's just tons of precedent for stuff that takes...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Yeah, but if you don't know or actually care about the ranks or pay attention beyond the most rudimentary understanding of apprenticeship and guild structures, Masters are right under Grandmasters! Also... Um. >.> Lanasa said he achieved the rank "Just Under" George Washington. And since the...

    D&D 5E CleverNickName's Laboratory: Let's Make Cantrip Magic Items

    Gravedigger's Friend improvised weapon (shovel), uncommon, (requires attunement) While attuned to this old and well worn shovel you may use the Mold Earth and Shillelagh cantrips, though the Shillelagh cantrip can only target the shovel. When used in this way the Gravedigger's Friend is treated...

    Level Up (A5E) Announcing A5Evening: An All Party Round Up (an A5e Youtube 'news' show)

    One thing of great importance to note: I didn't have a hand in designing A5e. I wasn't part of the team because I hadn't taken the plunge on writing professionally. The team that -did- create it, however, remains an absolutely fantastic group of people who did something amazing. And many do...

    Level Up (A5E) Announcing A5Evening: An All Party Round Up (an A5e Youtube 'news' show)

    Between the Warcaster and the Swordmage you're gonna have some interesting gishing options. Personally I think the Swordmage is a better example of the traditional gish, where the Warcaster is a solid choice for trying something -different- in your gishing. Particularly with their ability at...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Good riddance to bad rubbish! I hope the spectre of his failure follows him for the rest of his days and he comes to understand that being a grifter playing on bigotry and hatred for an economic boost is really nonviable.

    3PP Release (3rd Party Book Release) Paranormal Power: A Psionics Option for 5e and A5e, written by Steampunkette!

    The intention, there, was to expend your focus when you activate the power or effect that requires it. For example, Suspend Animation allows you to take a "Special Reaction" when you hit 0 to expend your focus and trigger the Noetic. Though it is true that Body Manipulation requires...

    Where’s The Deathstalker RPG? Part 1

    I am not labeling you or other potential Fans as bullies, bigots, or trolls. That's twisting my words dramatically. I'm saying there's enough of a bully/bigot/troll market to make it profitable.

    3PP Release (3rd Party Book Release) Paranormal Power: A Psionics Option for 5e and A5e, written by Steampunkette!

    There's probably some mechanics from the Book of Vile Darkness for 3.5 you could adapt to make a 5e Archetype?

    Where’s The Deathstalker RPG? Part 1

    Depends on how big "Big Enough" is. But probably, yes. There's a lot of people that would embrace something like this specifically with the intent of making other people upset, or angry, or hurt. Simply because it pleases them to inflict that kind of harm. Makes them feel like they have power...

    Where’s The Deathstalker RPG? Part 1

    Ahh, Deathstalker. Where sexual assault replaces handshakes and sexually assaulting a guy who got turned into a woman is played for laughs. One of the franchises I wish had remained relegated to the dustbin of history... but here we are.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    So something like... Dragonlands Dweller The Dragonlands is a broad term to describe the desolation many dragons leave behind in their former hunting grounds before they move on. But these lands are often occupied by those the dragon leaves behind. Dragonborn, kobolds, and other dragon-blooded...
