First off, allow me to give you the setup of what's going on in the campaign. Basically, there is a faction in the game capable of creating energy weapons powered from small power crystals. Now, I'm trying to figure out what stats would be best for said weapons, as I've seen so many different...

Yes, I've heard of the product your speaking of. Was kind of hoping I could get some input as well from someone whose used it as I am considering strongly purchasing it.

I suck at drawing. More than that, it pisses me off because I have a fair idea of what I want and just can't get it to look right with my OCD tendencies. And then sometimes I have no clue what to do to fill in. See for my new campaign coming up, I'd like to go ahead and have a map drawn out; I...

There's been a bit of a misunderstanding as to what I was asking. I'm not saying that game has one set ending, or asking what the endings should be, but how to bring about a satisfying conclusion. I fully intended to allow the players freedom as to how the game drew to a conclusion with three...

As I've already posted, I'm working up a fantasy tabletop game set in Ancient Rome. I've settled on a date a round 100 BC where the Republic is in it's waning years to be sure, but it isn't exactly in decline as of yet. Magic, as well as exotic creatures, are just now starting to slip into the...

That's definitely something I want to capture by the way, especially with the "first" campaign that I'm going to run. Like, I want the first game to serve as really an introduction to the world and the characters around to create much more urgency when SHTF. Getting some help in flushing out...

O.o this is very nice, much appreciated. I'll probably be making some minor tweaks of course, but I definitely like the idea of of their being the "fun" kind of stuff. I think I'll have it start localized, and then starting to spread out. I also really haven't factored in Christianity, though I...

You know, that did help in one respect. I do think I'm going to have the Romans adapting some higher technology to deal with the magical threat (by doing what the Romans did, picking the best of it and adapting it to serve the Roman expansion) See part of my problem right now is determining just...

Only by it's name. I know that it's basically D&D but with guns. I remember some friends talking about a game they ran, and wishing I had been involved with it (as I prefer guns to swords honestly). What's the general idea of that campaign?

At the very least it may give me some story hook ideas. I am thinking that the first time a rift forms, it'll be a massive influx of either Elves or Orcs that would be an invading force.

I'm actually not familiar with that though certainly something I will look at it. Though, mine is a universe where magic has just started to come into play, and the weird creatures aren't in full force. Eventually, they'll be a Cataclysm (or series of Cataclysms) that will result in full blown...

I have an idea for a campaign, but it could use some fleshing out and maybe even focus and that's where I'm hoping you all could help. So let's get to it: As the title insinuates, the basic nutshell of this idea is that gradually (and/or violently) an event occurs that brings magic and strange...

Title pretty much says it. I'm just really getting comfortable in 5e and I've been asked to DM the next game. This particular group is more a relaxed one, basically just doing one offs that share the common theme of being part of the Assassin's Guild. The members are doing a round robin sort of...

Just wanting to get your guys idea which version of the backstory you guys prefer: Having not seen my father for more than a decade, I was asked to return home with some important information. Time has tempered the anger of when I found out that my father had sacrificed my mother, and his...

I certainly like the idea of twinned haste, part of the reason I thought I could still do a support role well while being a sorcerer.

You know what I hate? Typing out a huge ass post, just for my session to tell me that it's expired and not saved the work. Well I don't really feel like retyping it up so let me give you the abridged version; I have this character idea in mind that deals with the character coming to terms with a...

First off, just want you guys to know I'm really grateful for the responses. Sorry for the delay in response I'm defintely leaning towards Bard, at least for the first six levels (character I'm making level 8 btw), but as far as what to do with those last two levels I'm undecided on if to go...

That actually does help a lot actually. First off, what I meant by "Diviner" was basically the person who use detect magic and identify (which apparently no one in the party knows!), and in general looks for the less direct route to solve a problem. I like playing those sorts of characters and...

I've only played 5e once, but from that once and speaking from someone who has been out of the loop, I much prefer this system to 3.5. I love how you don't really have to worry about all those bonuses and negatives and instead it's simplified to the "advantage or disadvantage" system. And I feel...

To begin, I'm a newb here. And not just with 5th edition, but I've been out of the D&D game for a LONG time, like since before 4.0 came out. That being said, a lot of the basics I do still remember it's just I could use some help here. So a friend of mine said he was running a 5e game and...
