One missing for me is investigating campaign scale mysteries. Things like the cause of the Mournland in Eberron. I'd also say simply following a story motivation as well, but that's a bit broad of a category. What's up right now my characters prime motivation would be - Exploring Dungeons...

Beholder for me. I think one important aspect to this is how dangerous and memorable an encounter with a monster is. A Beholder has multiple dangerous attacks and is from a wholly different reality that is innately dangerous to the main reality just by existing, making Beholders an existential...

I don't know if it will help or not, but here's my take. I don't personally feel this way about the Paladin in particular, but I do feel something similar. I'm an atheist, and simply cannot play as a divine character myself. I'm fine with gods and religion existing in the world, and I'm fine...

Honestly, arguing about the number of feats is the most pointless discussion on the board. Since day one tying ASI's and feats together to the same resource has completely hamstrung the ability for feats to be interesting. The standard model for feats is you take the one option that is...

I've been thinking the exact same thing. I don't have anything more specific to add about implementation, so I'll just be here for moral support.

I'm glad you found some of Jocat's stuff, he was an awesome youtuber. Sadly he is no longer doing videos, but you should definately look up more of his stuff. The "crap guide to DnD" series is his best known. They're a funny, but still pretty accurate, videos about DnD. The last in the...

"Adventurer", as used in D&D, seems to most closely resemble a combination of 18th and 19th century explorers (those that explored and filled out the blank spaces on maps) and 18th and 19th century archeologists (who at that time were motivated more by personal fame, wealth, or proving their own...

This channel isn't directly tied to D&D or ttrpgs, but I do think is very useful and entertaining. Tasting History with Max Miller is about the history of food, and cooking recipes from the past. Food is a topic that can really tell you a lot about cultures from different parts of the world at...

Yeah, gishes are totally my thing. It's like the first thing I try to make when a new edition of D&D comes out. You should have seen my 3.5 monstrosity I made toward the end. I had levels in something like 6 classes, and my unmodified saves were something like 16fort, 10refl, 16will. Never...

You and I are in similar boats. I kind of saw it as indicative of my personal strong moral code. I have a strong dislike of those that take advantage of others or are consciously trying to hold back their rights. Being a Paladin in that case would actually put me in opposition to established...

reposting my results from the original thread. I answered the questions as truthfully as I could. I'm highly intellegent, poorly social, a bit of an outcast, highly independent, and strongly value knowledge. I was expecting to be like 110% wizard, but nope. I'm apparently full Paladin. Nailing...

you may need to spin this off to another thread, it's too much fun. Here's my results. I answered the questions as truthfully as I could. I'm highly intellegent, poorly social, a bit of an outcast, highly independent, and strongly value knowledge. I was expecting to be like 110% wizard, but...
