That's not even hyperbole!

Woohoo! I'm gonna sell a ton of these!

Keshma was confused by the Chwinga's magic, and took a moment to respond to Myrral when he offered her her bottle. When she recovered, she held an expression of mild surprise,, as if she had expected Myrral to ask her for her help in the battle, rather than complying with her wish to return to...

Another editorial dump. I hope my formatting makes sense and you don't have to spend too long looking for what I'm talking about: Under Lolth: Naxa: "Naxa is, unbeknownst to her sister, and agent of Lolth." (an agent). Under Lord Soth: "He was curesed to live..." (He was cursed). Lair...

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I'll see if I can keep going this evening!

I've been trying to find time to give it a full once-over with my "Editor's Eye", but I haven't finished. Here's what I've got for you: Under Vulnerabilities, Resistances, & Immunities (Object Resistances & Immunities) at the end of the paragraph it says "with a rarity or Rare and lower" when...

I DID watch the show as a kid, but literally the only thing I remember from it is that some white version of Yoda was a Dungeon Master somehow and that Tiamat is at the end of a Rollercoaster. None of that means anything to me (both in that I'm not nostalgic for it and those memories make very...

As soon as I saw the cover I was like, "I know someone on ENWorld who is going to be happy!"

In the very least they could give us a single page party action shot!

The old guy in Kingdom Come was Alex Ross's real-life father.

The giant whistled, a loud, high-pitched sound that reminded one of a strong wind, and another giant eagle, this one even more splendid than the previous one, soared down on great wings and landed nearby. The giant nodded to the group and mounted his eagle, patting her on her shoulder. She beat...

Hmmm... I tried 13th Age when it first launched an thought that it was on the right track in general, but not quite there - or not quite what I needed. I have respect for its designers and I'll take your advice and have a look! I've been working (slowly) on coming up with something that I would...

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong - if I had to chose one or the other, I'd go for simple monster over complex monster (most of the time). I suppose if D&D had a slightly more nuanced martial combat system built into its core, an Ogre would be more interesting. I wouldn't want THAT to be complex...

Great work, Dave! I don't know how much of a perfectionist you are, but if you don't mind some very brief (I haven't read every word in your document yet) editorial notes: You have minor typos in your conditions: Both Swallowed and Weakened say "Your are" when they mean to say "You are".

Evocative stuff that they can do. Take, for example the Ogre and then the Vampire. The Ogre is just a bag of HP that does damage, while the Vampire is a half page of Vampire stuff. The Ogre makes me bored by its simplicity; the Vampire makes me bored by its complexity. Now, I am not saying...

While I think that the 5e statblock is generally well designed, I wish that they didn't waste so much empty space.

It's just to long for me. I like Mercer's DMing, for the most part, and I enjoy the cartoon. The show is just too much content. That, and I prefer to spend that time playing myself over watching others do it. Yeah, I think I like bits and pieces of it, but the whole shebang is too much...

I don't see those two as different things. The story is simply the setting when it's breathing - coming to life - but I think I get your distinction.

Yes! Though my (personal) interest and tolerance for "thespianism" stops at "just under Critical Role" and doesn't extend even close to the "method actor" player-type. OTOH, invocations of colo(u)r (I like what you did there) are what I live for. Brief. Bold. Beautiful invocations of colour.

Well... I meant more "whatever is appropriate to the fiction" rather than the specific example. It can be any level of fluffiness that is appropriate to your own sensibilities, but I would personally prefer it to be a little more catered to the individual encounter, round, monster, and character...
