Nor do every PCs use universal schemes like 4e. And 5e PCs aren't as dumb simple as 2e, 1e, and 0e PCs.No, we should not be handing a 6th level illusion wizard to the fighter player because John is sick just to continue. Andrew's turns are long enough already.If Moni can't come, we can do the emergency oneshot of another RPG. Luke planned for 5 PCs not 3.</blockquote>
