So ive started a new campaign with my group using the Star Wars 5e system but in a custom setting. The tone is goofy fun with serious moments (Starstruck Odyssey, Gaurdians of the Galaxy, etc. Just a bit short of Futurama). I was wondering if the community had any ideas for slighly goofy/silly...

So a situation came up last session (and similar ones have come up before) where I as the DM clarified information to a player in order to help them execute a plan that had a very high chance of getting them killed. The situation last session, for example, was players trying to break into a...

So I've noticed a feature of my group, with some players being worse then others, that as a whole they would rather get their characters killed (up to and including a campaign ending TPK) rather than accept any sort of defeat or setback. This came to a head last session when the party was more...

So one of the things I implemented in my game to make things more fun was a feat system more like 3.5/pathfinder. The basic idea is that instead of choosing between an ability score increase or a feat a player can get both. 1) Whenever a character gains a feat they gain a +1 to any one ability...
