I've been checking out videogame fan projects recently, and there are definitely a number of gems to try out. Here are a few great ones I've found so far. Endless Sky -- a top-down space rpg (currently on Steam) that is inspired by the classic Escape Velocity series Angband -- a roguelike...

I'm going to bring up something important that is easily overlooked: Spells with damage dice as written in the rules are designed to be used by PCs rather than monsters, because the hit point values are calculated differently. As such, if using monsters with spells, keep in mind that if you...

The animated corpses of the original villagers Mirrors on the walls that the spirit can use to teleport between locations NOTE: Does the party have a plan to make sure the spirit is not able to simply run away? One easy idea is that the spirit is afraid of sunlight because they were originally...

"All stand before the honorable Justice Ramin Armin" I am crossing my fingers that he manages to stick the landing on Dark Sun. Sending positive vibes.

Cultists summon devils and demons. Sometimes the ritual involves possession, enabling a devil or demon to inhabit a person or object.

AoE Command, rechargable Summons soldiers whose bodies are semi-real, disintegrating when their HP is gone Casts Bigby's Pimp Slap

In a world of fantasy, prodigies can exist. Reincarnated souls can exist. Memory crystals can exist. Divine uploads can exist. Dream Sanctuaries with super compressed time passage can exist. In fantasy role-playing, the PCs are not necessarily average joes, they are the heroes of the story so...

I cast "Magic Red Hot Chili Pepper Missile".

The spell Wish is like pulling the rubber band of reality. If you pull too hard, the rubber band can snap, sometimes snapping back on the fingers that pulled on it. It's up to your DM how far the rubber band is allowed to stretch. If no, the DM can potentially argue that the energy of a Wish...

Day 1 Errata is fine. It's day 100 Errata that breaks the camel's back. ;) I decided to hold off on the first printing after remembering what happened with the 2014 books. I hear the digital versions on DnD Beyond get updated promptly though.

I really liked Disney's version of Gargoyles, with a complex array of motivations across different clans. Created during a time when the writing was chef's kiss imo.

Twitter's main value was never how much money it made, but how many people it could reach. Imagine one paying $44 billion for one company in exchange for $440 billion in government contracts awarded (over time) to one's other owned companies.

If I manage to live long enough to get enough people together for my next campaign, I'm thinking about having a shared Discord or Facebook Group between the players and settle traveling mechanics (if they have to travel far) through online posts between sessions. Put up a shared map for everyone...

"5.24" evokes the funny scenario of Hasbro/WotC milking 5e with 75 more version updates until 6e.

I took a long break from my 5e Realmspace/Spelljammer project, but now I can include a certain reference about Greyspace's crystal sphere and Krynnspace's sphere (I gap-bridged the Astral Sea lore and Crystal Sphere/Phlogiston lore, making it more or less usable for campaigns in 5e AND earlier...

If your campaign world remains 7% larger for more than six hours, it is recommended that you go see your local game-ologist.

Since Tiamat is shown, I wonder if the DnD episode will feature the kids from the cartoon and what happened to them between the series and their appearance in HoT.

If John Hight managed World of Warcraft during its decline and worked at Blizzard as an exec during the scandal that resulted in an employee committing suicide, I am a little worried about what he brings to the table as the new President of WotC.

Half-sized Danny DeVito in his prime comes to mind as a PC concept for such an offspring.

Low quality diamonds with small sizes and/or imperfections are common in real life, and quite possibly in DnD as well. As such diamond dust would be cheap while large diamonds cut to perfection would still not be cheap. Whole diamonds used in spells also might not be as large as one might imagine.
