    I have a group adventuring on the Sword Coast. For some of the wierd-ash roleplay we've got going on, one of the PC's has a buring desire to buy, steal, or kill for a clockwork creature's powersource. The more powerful he can get the better. This would take place somewhere around level 12 or...

    D&D 5E GM question about "Storm King’s Thunder" SPOILERS!

    In the Eye of the All Father, chapter 4, room 6; there is the following statement. The group is very gish oriented. They all have some magic, but nothing close to the polymorph spells yet. Harshnag could activate one of the runes for them. Do I make them leave, travel to a city, purchase 5...

    D&D 5E Heyo. Looking for some build advice/suggestions.

    Will be starting a new campaign with a new gaming group. Don’t know what campaign we will be running. I’m pretty sure one of the players is going to run a straight wizard. Don’t think anyone else has decided. I have played a Fighter with the Eldritch Knight subclass. Wasn’t terribly impressed...

    D&D 5E Thoughts on a skills PC.

    I've got about a month before the current campaign wraps up and a new one starts. So I've got some ideas boiling around in my head. Most of our players seem to be pretty focused on combat machines. Abilities, skills, and even spells are mostly just focused on what can be used in combat. We have...

    D&D 5E Ballista War Wagon

    So I'm the GM for a rather eclectic group. They had originally bought a cart just to haul a single bulky item for a couple of weeks. Then they purchased a ballista to mount in the cart to make it look like a major attack on a manor for a distraction (it never actually happened). Somehow this...

    Ok, so our campaign has kinda suddenly taken a hard left turn. GM and players are looking for ideas. It has been mentioned many times that it is my character's fault.
