    D&D 5E Looking for a heist adventure to run in the Shadowfell

    It sounds like an awesome concept, but isn't the Dragon Heist adventure a whole campaign? I'm looking for something that would take 3 sessions tops, preferably less.

    D&D 5E Looking for a heist adventure to run in the Shadowfell

    After not running a game for a while, I've decided to run a short adventure (1-3 sessions) for my players, having them play a squad of professionals for hire from Sigil, going on outsourced heist for one of the factions to steal a McGuffin from the mansion/castle/whatever of some important fella...

    D&D General Ideas for a planar campaign

    Hey folks, all of your ideas are amazing and I will probably end up implementing some of them into my game in one way or another, or at least be inspired by them. Since what really sparked my interest in D&D (and overall one of my favorite videogames ever) is Planescape: Torment, I feel like I...

    D&D General Ideas for a planar campaign

    I've started planning out a planar campaign that has the players start out in different settings. Basically, I had the idea of starting with two 2-3 player groups, running 1-2 seperate sessions for each, with each group ending up on Sigil by accident, and have the campaign go on from there (I...

    D&D General Cyre 1313 Ideas

    I'm planning for a Planescape campaign, with the party originating in two smaller groups from different Prime Material Plane worlds, each being thrown into Sigil by some kind of a freak planar incident. I want to give the party an origin point that would discourage them from wanting to go back...

    D&D 5E Getting back to DMing after a break

    I've been running a 5e campaign for a while now (technically two years) that we play in person, and both my players and I enjoy it a lot. COVID is not much of a thing anymore where I live, but when it was, I we had to take breaks from running the game when the lockdowns were in order (we tried...

    D&D 5E Starting the campaign with the group split to two

    I really want to go through a seperate Session Zero for each group. I think I'll start with a general Session Zero (maybe even on Zoom) for all the players, divide them to the 2 subgroups randomly (but give them the option to change), and have them just declare which races and classes they want...

    D&D 5E Starting the campaign with the group split to two

    I've been thinking of starting a new campaign for a while now. I've always wanted to run a campaign that is centered in Sigil (Planescape's City of Doors), and I've decided to maybe have two groups getting there from two different Material Plane worlds. I think one group will be a bunch of...

    Well, I've just found their 6 ft. strip option and it looks really nice. Would you mind givint me some examples of specific instances and ways you've used the lights to inspire me a bit?

    Help with atmospheric lighting

    I'm getting a a screen in a wooden case for my table, and I'd decided to maybe throw in some controllable atmospheric lights to boost up the vibes. Trouble is I know nothing about those, so I'd be happy to hear about any advice you can offer. I'm leaning more towards a LED strip that I can put...

    D&D General Software for a TV table battle map (and more uses)

    I've just recieved a spare TV from a friend leaving the country, and I've decided to use it as digital battle map for my face to face 5e campaign. I'm looking for a software that can run battle maps and offer some nice features (mostly distance, AoE, auras and possibly tokens with status effects...

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    Pretty meh, honestly. My country entered a 3rd lockdown recently, so we got back to online session. We had a few session over Roll20 during the first lockdown, but I hated it, so we took a break for a while. This time, we used only Discord and Owlbear Rodeo for combat, to make it more simple...

    D&D General Fleshing out my Feywild sea hag villain

    After running ToA for a while, I've decided to take short break from zombies and jungles, and threw my party into the Feywild for a nice side adventure. Essentially, the party were thrown into a conflict between two factions: a young adult green dragon, who took control of a fey forest and is...

    D&D 5E Choosing a 3rd party monster book

    I'm looking to get a new 5e bestiary book. Since I've already gotten the Monster Manual, VGtM and MToF, I'm thinking of getting a 3rd party book. I'm leaning towards a book that's mostly focused on planar creatures and fey (although a few extra dragons and aberrations can be a big bonus) that...

    D&D 5E Coming up with ideas for a Feywild adventure

    That sounds like an interesting concept, but I think it'll be too much work, especially considering the fact I've only played 5e (aside from a quick run of 3e when I was like... 10).

    D&D 5E Coming up with ideas for a Feywild adventure

    I've been running a campagin in the jungles of Chult (Tomb of Annihilation) for a year and something, and I feel like it's time to shake things up a bit, so I've decided to throw my players to the Feywild in the next session, for a arc lasting 2-4 sessions. Now, I have a rough idea that I want...

    D&D General Extra DM equipment & tools

    These sound like very good ideas. I'm thinking about getting a few erasable index cards instead of whiteboard to draw stuff for the party. I got those from a store on Etsy. The prices are very reasonable, and the owner is really nice and is very flexible and cooperative when it comes to custom...

    D&D General Extra DM equipment & tools

    For the DMs among us, other than the obvious stuff (books, notebooks, battle mats/maps, screen, a laptop...), what kind of extra equipment and accessories do you use use to help you run the game? Anything that helps you concentrate better, be more precise and clear to your players, act faster...

    D&D 5E Looking for feedback on my cooking homebrew system

    I like your suggestions guys, but I'm aiming for something pretty simple here. Might use @aco175 's idea for CR when I go for the more exotic monsters. Thanks a lot y'all, appreciate it.
