D&D 5E A new alignment: Leutral

[machineelf]

First of all let me say that I love where D&D is going with 5th edition, and I love the hard work put in to the system. But can someone at WOTC do a little better job of proofreading the materials before they go out to press? I don't mean that to sound too harsh. I've noticed several misspellings or grammar problems in the books (one that is on the first entry of the Monster Manual. The first entry!)

But the latest is on the new DM screen. A "leutral" where there should be a "neutral." (An accidental combination of lawful and neutral no doubt.) There is so little actual text content on the DM screen that you'd think it would get a few good reads before going to the press. It's not the end of the world, just mildly annoying.

Am I being too harsh? I feel dirty because I love 5th ed. so much; maybe too much.

I think Leutral is clearly the alignment for characters whose highest ideal is loot.

I think it's the direction we have all been waiting for - an indication as to how to approach reading the rules: the rules are intended to be taken Leutral-ly.

In text heavy books it would be surprising if there wasn't a typo or two. The DM screen though is another matter.

I rolled on the random treasure table. It says you won "the internet" for today. Congratulations, sir!

Read the entire entry.

15 Live and Let Live (Leutral)

I think someone got carried away with the alliteration.

Perhaps the entry is all just an elaborate trick to troll me Like saying, "Hey we know we put "leutral" instead of "neutral," but live and let live buddy!"

Did WotC create the screen themselves, or is this another outsourced masterpiece?

Pretty sure it was in house.

I wouldn't put it past them. Anyone remember how they printed the déjà vu power twice in the 3.5 psionics book?
