    D&D General [Forum Game] What's in a title?

    I would like to propose a forum game. The first poster posts the title of (a real) D&D adventure and campaign, and the next poster describes what they think the adventure is about, based on the title alone. They then post a title themselves for the next player, and so on. To start, the title of...

    D&D 5E Magic item that ticks

    I need a quick suggestion for a magic item to put inside a giant crocodile that makes a ticking noise.

    Dragonlance Builds that exploit the Solamnic Knights feats

    As a spin off from the black robed paladins of high sorcery thread, how would build a character who takes maximum advantage of the Solamnic Knight feats, now that they don't stack with battlemaster? Narrative logic not required! :LOL:

    Dragonlance Did you play Dragonlance using the pregens?

    I'm interested in how many people who played (some or all of) the original Dragonlance modules (DL series) used the pregens (Heroes of the Lance), and how may used their own characters.

    Recommend me a Space Opera RPG

    I'm currently looking for a space opera tabletop RPG to run on Roll20. I don't want rule that are more complicated than D&D 5e, and I want one that supports a gamemaster guided narrative. I also don't have much money to buy books just to check them out. Currently looking at the latest version...

    Critical Role Call of the Netherdeep playthrough commentary [spoilers]

    When I read Call of the Netherdeep I couldn't decide if I thought it was a good, bad or in between, largely because I was uncertain how some of its moving parts would function in actual play. But my players are Critical Role fans, so I am going to try running it, starting tonight. So I thought I...

    D&D 5E Looking for monsters to challenge a party of 6 level 17 characters

    Running out of MM options! On the upside the players aint that tactically brilliant. At the moment I really need a non-boss not-smart single monster of large or huge size.

    D&D 5E New (?) Info on the Rules expansion gift set.

    Haven't seen this posted before, on the official site: Rules Expansion Gift Set | Dungeons & Dragons Of note: Seems to tie in with the idea that the new hobgoblin (and many more - perhaps less changed) are in this.

    D&D 5E "Big Summer Adventure" Drow related? Announcement imminent?

    It's in the title. There seems to be an awful lot of Drow-related chatter all of a sudden. We have been told there is a "big summer adventure" but no hint as to what it is about. D&D Live is a bit late to announce a "summer" title (although it could be August). Maybe it actually features Drizzt...

    D&D 5E "3/4 caster" Artificer Subclass

    Introduction Artificers and rangers are quite similar in terms of their core abilities, yet I have noticed that rangers tend to be played as fully-martial characters (bar the occasional Hunter's Mark) and artificers played as if they where full casters. As a result neither are fully effective...

    D&D General Eberron lore related question

    Lets say the party need to get into a Silver Flame Monastery. The monk (martial arts adept) guarding the bridge wants them to answer three questions to test their faith. What questions should he ask? NB anything involving swallows will probably be too easy for my players.

    D&D General Eberron resource request

    My players might soon find themselves needing to sneak into Sharn. Does anyone know of published adventures that detail the dungeons beneath the city? I'm happy to covert from 3rd edition to 5th, but would rather not put a huge amount of effort in since my players might come up with some other plan.

    D&D 5E The Maverick (Exploring Eberron)

    The Maverick is a subclass of artificer from the Exploring Eberron supplement. My initial impression was that, as a half-caster, it was a weaksauce wizard, but I would like to be proved wrong. How would people get the most out of this complex subclass? My initial thoughts: Instead of a damage...

    D&D 5E Homebrew Ranger Subclass - feedback please

    It occurred to me that the 5e ranger reminded me of the 1st edition AD&D bard. So this subclass is my attempt to emulate the feel of that. It leans into some of the less popular aspects of the 5e ranger. Storykeeper (Ranger subclass) As keepers or oral traditions druids acquire a vast store of...

    D&D 5E Recommend me a tier 3 adventure

    Looking for a good adventure for a party of about level 14. The setting is FR, and the edition is 5, but I am happy to adapt content. I like "unconventional".

    D&D 5E Which of these UA subclasses do you HATE?

    Not just dislike, or think needs more work, or think is boring. Which do you think needs burning with fire, then the ashes buried in the bottommost layer of the Abyss? You can vote for up to all of them. ;)

    D&D 5E Would you prefer warlord or psion as a new class?

    This is my first attempt to create a poll for these forums, so fingers crossed... In order to keep the results meaningful I have tried to keep the question simple. Thus, other options, such as "both", "use subclasses" and "spaghetti" have been deliberately omitted. This is purely to try and...

    D&D 5E Hexblade patron in Eberron

    The standard fluff for hexblades is their patron is an intelligent magical weapon made from the Shadowfell (and possibly associated with the Raven Queen). The Raven Queen is clearly not part of Eberron. Dolurrh seems to be the closest analogue for the Shadowfell, and it's consistent with the...
