    Just some flow yoga I found on YouTube (Yoga with Adrienne, I like the dog) - I wanted to fit in some activity on off days and do some flexibility work since as I approach my 40s it’s only going to get harder.

    I started running 3x a week last week for the first time, and got two runs in so far this week (one was in the snow!) Did yoga twice on rest days, and there’s more forecasted snow tomorrow, of course on my run day!

    I’d think you could do the same but with like “replace pg xx mechanic in paragraph x with DC15” type of thing instead of copying any of the content.

    I always wonder why you can’t have a conversion document that only makes things clear within the scope of owning the original document, like referencing page numbers in the original. I did think about just mixing SD with Dolmenwood and crossing my fingers that things don’t break too much -...

    Yeah, totally understandable.

    I wish Gavin would partner with the converters and release an official conversion. I have the current conversion PDF, but it’s not as comprehensive as it used to be if I understand them correctly because they got into some trouble.

    I thought I’d be running Ptolus in SD, but my players surprised the heck out of me and want me to run Dolmenwood (when OSE has not been successful before).

    I definitely miss ribbon abilities for classes.

    Do you foresee any issues with magic levels in the city itself vs what’s expected by SD? i.e. Continual Light, etc.

    How would you handle progression in translating Ptolus’ adventures and APs to Shadowdark? I want to ensure they’re not leveling too fast or too slow. Would you increase the XP amounts needed by any amount?

    I agree with the last part - by providing them with good tools to run the game.

    For every new DM created, more players will be created. If they’re equal roles, then I can just do as lots of players do (not read the PHB, not read any background info or know the rules), show up, and the game will run itself, right? They’re not equal because every DM has to have “equal”...

    I don’t think any single person advocating for DMs has come across that way, but I’ve certainly seen ultimatums coming from the players talking about restrictions in this thread.

    I’m totally open to learning it! The text just seems bland and uninspiring every time (unfortunately I have the same issue with WWN). Maybe I have to be in the right headspace.

    I’ve tried to read Mythras several times because I know it’s supposed to be great, but for some reason I find the text a slog every time.

    None, unfortunately. OSR’s that way, but several of my players only want 5e, so I tend to be stuck in that lane. BRP’s another good one I’d like to explore - I think Dragonbane specifically, as it’s not super crunchy peanut butter but seems easy to convert both BRP and OSR stuff to. I search...

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - I just want tools to support various methods of play, varying levels of magic, and a real toolset of a game. Not particularly bothered how other folks choose to run their game, just let me run mine the way I desire.

    I’m way more likely to cut a race/species or spell(s) than a class, though I could see an argument for only having Wizard as the arcane caster (haven’t been in that thread so don’t know the points being made).

    This is a very weird, niche situation you’re proposing. Pretty sure this is all discussed at session zero/campaign setup and proposal. No one is somehow surprised all of a sudden at Dragonborn being erased off their character sheet. No DM is sneaking things in in regards to racial choices...
