The game where I am a player: I think we've run 2.5 dungeons over 5 years of playing. The .5 is for a straight series of rooms with some traps in them. We fought 1 dragon in a friendly challenge, interacted with a trapped dragon we haven't been able to free yet, and found some dragon bones...

Module 2 / When A Star Falls has a few encounters with no maps provided. Here are the free maps I decided to use: Death on the Moors (Memory Web) Moorland Stream from fantasymaps Party starts lower right across the stream Piyarz's Shadow (Sion) Camp from darkvineworld Party starts in...

I actually did this entire update process with Dragonlance for my first DM'd game this year. Quests From the Infinite Staircase lists Dragonlance as one of the settings for its first module. I thought the name sounded cool, and that led to a few months of reading about the setting. To be...

The party for my game includes a MCDM Flee Mortals! retainer stat block, the Hobgoblin Tactician, but the actual NPC is a heeler dog that can talk. The NPC being a dog was requested by the players. D&D has built-in background for this in terms of Awakened animals and plants. The dog's lore is...

Sorry, but if they can't find an actor with eyes shaped like this, it's not real Dragonlance! More seriously, one thing I've noticed in shows with contact lenses is the lens does not react to light, so someone wearing lenses always looks zombified. A lot of lenses look cool in a photograph...

My weird request is that if it's a TV show, I hope the dragons are small. Like this: Not this: I have nothing against big dragons. I just think it's cool that Dragonlance has these dragons which are conveniently sized for riding. I'm not sure this is an actual rule though, it might just be...

I guess WotC was looking at this thread because they added a unified store page for D&D Foundry content this afternoon: Wizards of the Coast This does not change what's available, but it now uses the same marketplace as the rest of Foundry's purchasable content, lets you search it there, etc.

From the #dnd5e channel on the Foundry Discord, this is all the confirmed stuff: Released Tasha's Cauldron of Everything (2014), Player's Handbook (2024), Dungeon Master's Guide (2024), Monster Manual (2024), Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk (2014/24): Supports 2024 content...

My first character was a monk, and one of the things she was good at was going long distances fast. When my DM tried TotM all the movement kind of got handwaved, so my monk really felt the same as any other martial. I complained. On the flip side, I now play a cleric who can go 30ft a turn, or...

Here's a Level 1 combat report for a couple rooms in The Lost City module: B11 and B12. These rooms represent the headquarters for one of Lost City's factions, the Guardians of Gorm. This is what B11/B12 look like when all the Guardians are placed on the map: The PC in B12 was escorted there...

FWIW one of my players wanted to play a hobbit so I told him, "We're in the Dragonlance setting, so those are called kender" and that was the extent of our exploration of kender culture. And the kender's backstory is he has 5 kids and a 6th on the way so he's adventuring to make some money for...

This is a timely thread. I had my 1st session as DM a couple days ago, and it ended with the players trying to repair a statue (putting a head back on a snake). They seemed to think something would happen, but of course I didn't even anticipate they would try to do this, so now I have to make...

It should be Perception (Wisdom), unless you are investigating how to operate a mechanism that unlocks the doors or something similar. Here are a couple examples of when Perception vs. Investigation should be used from Quests From the Infinite Staircase: Perception Investigation

It was confirmed for me when I watched Episode 6 lol. That Eye is full of rage. I loved the closing shot.

I have a question about When A Star Falls. This is just my ignorance from never having played a hexcrawl before. The hex map for the module has some artwork for each key location, including obvious smoke rising from settlements. The characters receive a "crudely drawn" version of the region...

I killed a monster with a Toll the Dead cantrip that did somewhere around 6 damage. That was when the DM struck, I think because my cleric never gets a killshot, and he asked, "How does it die?" There were some stages to my response, starting with panic. Then I considered the spell description...
