D&D 5E (2014) [OOC] A Light Hearted Princes of Elemental Evil Hack and Slash

[Shayuri]

Everything I've read says that if a spell can potentially be used against multiple targets, it's not eligible for twinning. That's how my other GMs rule it at least.

 

[Steve Gorak]

Crawford posted after Mearls and is effectively the sage advice guy and that's what I'm going with.

Ok, fair enough! Thanks

I'll get Kubeba up in a bit, got to find my hard copy

 

[River Song]

Kubeba at level 5 is in the RG, I'll update him to level 6 ASAP. Whew, I think I have caught up on three games so far.

 

[Kobold Stew]

Working on the level-up.

A question:
* are cantrips in a spell book? I thought they were not. (if they are, what does it mean for casting them? possibly, scrolls could be made? I don't know).

Still to be done:
-- add two spells to book
-- make new spell selection

 

[Shayuri]

Cantrips aren't in the spellbook. They are always considered prepared.

In theory you can make scrolls of cantrips, but all it would do is let a caster who doesn't know a cantrip to cast it once.

It would have no value to a spellcaster who knew the cantrip.

 

[Kobold Stew]

That was my understanding as well -- but I wanted to check, since the cantrips are listed in the spell book we found.

 

[Shayuri]

Ah yeah, good point. That is odd. Especially since you can't add cantrips by studying them. Might just be a quirk of the module writeup. That's a nuance of 5th Edition that's easy for vets of previous editions to miss.

 

[Creamsteak]

Well the module says she has her spellbook with her prepared spells. I just copy and pasted (and edited) her spell selection without thinking about it in any major detail.

 

[River Song]

I hadn't noticed that, good pickup.
